EDITORIAL No doubt thousands of Words, good and bad, have been Written about boarding school life and its comparison to the ordinary high school curriculum. Although I am, in a way, going to increase this number, my object is not to debate these points one Way or another but merely to point out one advantage offered by boarding school life to those who Wish it, and to discuss this important factor directly as it applies to T.C.S. A school such as T.C.S. could not function without the co-operation of the boys. There is, of course, a Head- 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD master and a staff who, in the opinion of some around the School, have exercised and still do exercise, complete con- trol over all matters, ruling the School in the form of an autocracy. This idea is as foolish as it is shallow. The mas- ters are here because they are experienced and have ability to teach the boys, the boys are here to learn. Therefore it is obvious that the masters will control the scholastic end of the School life entirely without the aid of the boys. Classes, however, represent only one side of our education here. The extra-curricular life is to a large extent directly up to the boys themselves. All the teams, of course, have coaches but a coach can do little without the co-operation of his players. If the boys themselves are not willing to play and work with the coach and other players it is cer- tain that the team will be Worth nothing although it may have an excellent coach. ' More important than either the classroom or playing field are the lessons a boy learns on how to live har- moniously With others. Surely this cannot be done with- out the co-operation of the boys themselves. They must learn to adjust themselves to fit in with others, they have to be able to give up graciously some of their own personal desires for the good of the majority. There is also in the school life here a close co-operation between masters and privileges-House Officers, Seniors, and Prefects. These boys perform many duties about the School and a great amount of trust and faith is placed in their co-operation. In a way, the formation of these privileges tends to make certain cliques in the School which are resented by others. This should not be the case-that is, there should not be the cliques and also boys shouldn't resent these privileges. There has to be as close co-operation between the boys and the Seniors and Prefects as there is between the Seniors and Masters. A system of having the boys in the fifth and sixth forms vote for privileges was begun this year and seems to have worked out very successfully. Here, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 the boys themselves are choosing their own leaders and thus they have no cause to resent the boys of their own choice. This voting for privileges is another instance where the co-operation of the boys is needed to run the School and keep it functioning properly. There are here as elsewhere certain boys who have little spirit of co-operation, but want only to get away with as much as possible and to get as much as they can out of the School while giving nothing in return. One big advantage of boarding school is that boys are not required to attend by law and thus it is not necessary for a boarding school to keep this type of boy. This seems the only sensible way to look at the problem for if the boy has no thought for the School but only fo-r himself he is not doing himself or the School any good. It is this essential and basic idea of living in close com- munion with others and co-operating for the good of every- one which a School like T.C.S. teaches a boy and so pre- pares him in no small way for his future life in society. -.J'.B.F. 4 Ax , El J X if I .Jimi - 'iii rag -1... g . . fa , 1 ' 1' ' : 5' - ' 1 , ' 115, 1 Q 'J:i'LL '1s fc l.:t -.LS Q .

All who knew this rare spirit, re- fined in the furnace of God, recognized one who had offered up his life, as a living sacrifice, on the altar of the service of God in this world. At first a rather shy, diffident clergyman quietly exercising his ministry as an inconspicuous priest in a South Boston slum- area parish, Charles Henry Brent developed during the years into one of the most intrepid and gallant ambassadors of Christ the world has known for many years. When he died, the night of March 27, 1929, in Lausanne, Switzerland, a city which had be- come a symbol of his life, the Christian world mourned the pass- ing of a tall, somewhat austere, often deeply lonesome man who had grown during his lifetime into one of modern Christendom's foremost leaders, prophets, and seers. ' A consecrated Christian' spirit, mind, and willg a friend of hu- manity, a servant of God, a gifted writer and commanding preach- er, a missionary statesman, a Christian gentleman, a prophet of world unity, and the 20th century's greatest champion and apostle of Christian unity-Charles Henry Brent has been fitly called Everybody's Bishop. At home at different times in Canada, Western New York, Massachusetts, the Philippines, the Orient, Europe's battlefields, no corner of the world can claim him as its own. Though born a Canadian, Charles Henry Brent was an Ameri- can citizen for almost forty years, combining a deep devotion to British ideals and customs with a militant patriotism for the United States of America. He was born in Newcastle, Ontario, Canada, on April 9, 1862, the son of The Reverend Canon Henry Brent and his wife Sophia, in a parish where his father was rec- tor for forty-two years. From his earliest memory his mind was set on the ministry. At one time he said, I do not recall an instant of my life when I aspired to any vocation excepting that of the Ministry, but on one brief occasion when I faced the possi- bility of becoming a musician. As a boy at school the Ministry seemed to me the one vocation worth considering .... Were I again on the threshold of life I would choose as I have chosen. DU Preparation His education was carried out with a view to his calling. He prepared for college at Trinity College School, Port Hope, Ontario, one of Canada's great boys' schools, and in 1884 he was graduated from Trinity College, Toronto, with classical honors. In school TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 and in college he distinguished himself not only as a gifted and apt scholar but as a formidable athlete. The Right Rev. Dr. Sweatman, the Bishop of Toronto, ordain- ed him to the diaconate in 1886, the next year elevating him to the priesthood. His first position was curate and organist at St. John's Church, Buffalo, where he remained a year. Then he became curate on the staff of St. Paul's Church tnow Cathedral: in Buffalo, in charge of St. Andrew's Mission which at that time was located on Spruce Street. He attempted to place candles on the altar and Bishop Coxe objecting, he departed for Boston where he remained from 1888 until 1891. During the Boston years he lived at the mission-house of the Cowley Fathers where, under the guidance of Fathers Hall, Osborne and Torbet, he learned the lessons of the ordered life. One of his duties was to minister to St. Augustine's Colored Mission. In 1891 Bishop Phillips Brooks placed Father Torbet and the future Bishop Brent in charge of an abandoned church in the south end of Boston which they revived under the name of St. Stephen's Church. Brent was at this time 29 years old. For ten years he remained at St. Stephen's with Father Torbet, serving as rector only the last two months. The years at St. Stephen's were important and valuable ones for the young churchman. His humble, inconspicuous work in a struggling parish in a crowded neighborhood of underprivileged people proved good schooling for his naturally aristocratic mind. These years deepened not only his ideas of religion but also his insight into human character. It was in these years that he began tc learn a truth which undergirded his whole life, thought, and activity, namely, the essential value of every man, of whatever race or color or creed. Mingling with the loafers on Boston Com- mon helped his heart to grow deeper and his blood to flow warmer.. He came to know people, all sorts of people. It was during these hidden years that Charles Henry Brent forged him- self into the man who received one day in the autumn of 1901 a tele- gram from San Francisco informing him of his election by The House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church as Missionary Bishop of the Philippine Islands. Missionary Bishop It is interesting to note that only a few days before receiving notification of his election as Bishop of the Philippines, W. S. Rainsford was considering Charles Henry Brent as the best man for the associate with himself at St. George's Church, New York City. He is, of course, a High Churchmanf' said Rainsford to his senior warden, J. Pierpont Morgan, but he is not as high as when he sought 'the order! He is a man of God. He is in sympathy with the present time. His eyes are in the front of his head, and not in the back. He can preach. He loves men and understands them. And he is a democrat . 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD It was in June 1901, by the way, that his name came up for prominent consideration as Bishop-Coadjutor of Minnesota. Bishop Henry Codman Potter in recommending Doctor Alsop and Charles Henry Brent said of the latter: His traditions are those of a modern high churchman with singularly large and noble conceptions of the relation of the church to humanity. I know no man in the American Church who is, in some of the highest respects,-character, competency for leadership, enthusiasm, directness, personal attractiveness, and high spiritual qualities,-Mr. Brent's superior. No more words are needed to emphasize the man Charles Henry Brent had become by 1901 and to indicate the high regard in which he was held by high dignitaries and leaders of the Church at that time. In the summer of 1902 the young Bishop sailed out to his island diocese, joining at Suez, the Governor-General, William Howard Taft. It was to a big and pioneer task that he set forth. The next few years in the Philippines clearly made manifest to all the caliber of the young missionary bishop the Church had sent out to the new island-empire of the United States. As a matter of fixed policy, Bishop Brent confined his work inthe Philippines to the Army, official circles, and the Moros and Igorots. His was a hard assignment, but in short order he was vxdnning men to goodness and to Christ on the basis of their com- pelling beauty and by the contagion of his 'own manly idealism. General John J. Pershing and General Leonard Wood were con- firmed by Bishop Brent in Manila, but two of a host of Army and government officials who were led into the Church's fellowship by Bishop Brent. In the Philippines, Bishop Brent not only gave: he also re- ceived. He tells us that it was among the pagan peoples that I learned that equality before God of all men, which I count to be the chief treasure I have honestly made my own in my life time. His experience with the Moros and Igorots was simply an ad- vanced course in what he had begun to learn in the slum-sections of Boston. Expanding Interests The strength of the Episcopal Church in the Philippines be- fore the recent war, during it, and the surety of its revived vigor in the years at hand is testimony to the inspired leadership and energetic labors of Bishop Brent. During the years of his episco- pate 11901-19183 hospitals, churches, schools for boys and girls, mission-stations, and a great cathedral-center were established, the Bishop always building boldly for a large future. It was while resident in the Orient, on the frontier of Chris- tianity, that the desperate need for a united Christendom impinged forcibly on Bishop Brent's still forming mind. Here it was that TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 he pledged himself to labor for the cause of Christian unity all the days of his life. I His Philippine Islands ministry was frequently interrupted by trips back to the United States. Bishop Brent always enjoyed the rest and leisure of these long sea-voyages which gave him opporttmity for reading, meditation, and writing. The young missionary leader was sought as their leader by many home dioceses during these years. In 1908 he declined a call to become Bishop of Washington. Two times more he was called and two times more he refused. He was also elected to and declined the bishopric of New Jersey. It was during the first decade of the new century that Bishop Brent rose into national and international prominence. The priest, who not so many years before had seriously considered entering the monastic life, was at this time, equally at home in the hut of a Moro savage or a diplomatic embassy. And it was during this period that we witness Bishop Brent more than winning his spurs as a diplomat and statesman. The greatest evil in Filipino society, Bishop Brent and the government soon discovered, was opium, and to its extirpation Bishop Brent directly bent his efforts. Within a year after the official party of the island governor-general had assumed their duties, a commission had been appointed to investigate the use of and traffic in opium and the laws regarding such use and traffic in Japan, Formosa, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Saigon, Singapore, Burma, Java, and the Philippine Islands. Major E. C.Carter, U.S. Army, Dr. Jose Albert and Bishop Brent comprised the commis- sion. The commission assembled August 13, 1903, at Manila and gathered data until February 5, 1904. Then, from February 8, 1904 until March 15, 1904, the committee sat daily from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m., and finally presented its report. Briefly, the plan recommended was for opium to become a government monopoly immediately, this to become prohibition, except for medical pur- poses, after three years. But the work of this opium commission was but introductory to the great International Opium Conference at Shanghai during February 1909, over which Bishop Brent sat as president, which was dominated by his leadership and vision, and which was by him singlehandedly brought to a happy outcome. Bishop Brent also acted as chief commissioner of the American delegation to this meeting. He again served as chairman of a United States delegation to an international opium conference in 1911 and 1912 at The Hague. First World War By the outbreak of the World War, Bishop Brent was a world- renowned figure, a friend of national leaders in many countries, a citizen of the world, a foremost leader in the affairs of his Church. Though he was an ardent lover of peace, he accepted S TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD General Pershing's invitation to act as Chief-of-Chaplains of the American Expeditionary Force. His war career is really a separate story by itself. To him, the war was an unmitigated disaster and tragedy. Popularly-known as the khaki-colored bishop, Bishop Brent was all through the dark days of war a pillar of idealism and a tower of moral strength. He was frequently employed as a good- will ambassador smoothing-out friction between organizations en- gaged in war work or on a high diplomatic errand ironing out friction between nations. He was a constant and constructive interpreter between the United States and Great Britain, and it was entirely natural and fitting that General Pershing should choose him to deliver his message in 1918 to the men of the British and American ships in the North Sea. He used all the prestige of his position to secure action from the French Government in suppressing the organized vice which threatened the morality of the army. His war years were for him a soul-searching experience. If into the war Bishop Brent went a priest, he came out of it a prophet. Deeply- baptized in suffering, more international than ever before in his outlook and influence, he now added one more cause to those which he served-the cause of permanent peace. He struggled for it all the rest of his days. The war ended a chapter in his life, as it did for many an- other man. He did not return to his missionary bishopric in the Orient, but came to Western New York over which diocese he served as diocesan bishop until his death. He was accorded a huge acknowledgment service in St. Paul's Cathedral, Buffalo, on February 7, 1919, in the church where years before he had served as curate. The diocese granted him an assistant the next year when The Rev. David Lincoln Ferris, D.D., of Rochester was consecrated his suffragan. Bishop Brent gave his best to his diocese, faithfully fulfilling his episcopal duties and discharging the myriad tasks that fell to his hand. He made his home in the See House, Buffalo, and took care of the western half of the diocese, while Bishop Ferris lived in Rochester and took care of the eastern half of the diocese Know the Diocese of Rochester.J In one sense the diocese paid a penalty for having so eminent a leader for its head: the Bishop was continually called away from the diocese on some mission: but the diocese was proud to have its bishop a man of such stature and devoting himself to the causes to which he pledged all his energy during these years. Church Unity Among the many calls that came to him during these years of residence in Buffalo were: giving the Duff Lectures in Edin- burgh, Aberdeen, and Glasgow, in 19213 serving actively as a member of the Board of Overseers of Harvard Universityg acting TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 as delegate to the League of Nations Conference on Narcotics in 1923 and 19249 acting as chairman of the subcommittee on inter- national affairs at the Universal Christian Conference on Life and Work in Stockholm in August, 19253 functioning also as bishop-in-charge of the American Episcopal churches in Europe 1926-1928g and, finally, presiding over the First World Conference on Faith and Order in Lausanne in 1927. The causes of permanent world peace and Christian unity lay especially close to his heart in these postwar years. Repeatedly he preached on these subjects and more and more his public utter- ances became less sermons and more prophecies and fragments of visions. The greatest claim laid upon him during these years, which proved to be the last ten years of his life, was the necessity for a re-united Church. The unity of Christendom, he declared, is not a luxury, but a necessity, and the world will go limping until Christ's prayer that all may be one is answered. From every angle he saw its dire urgency. As a missionary, he saw that a divided Church could not succeed in its task of the conversion of great nations. He had witnessed at first-hand the waste of energy, money, personnel, and the confusion and weakness of competing Christian bodies. As a statesman, he realized that until the Church could give its united witness to the problems of education and mo- rality, social and international justice, the greatest force for righteousness would be lacking in modern life. As a mystic, he saw the matter of Christian unity in terms of the mind of God and set the aim for complete organic unity. His work for Church unity, through the World Conference on Faith and Order, became the major interest in his life. It pos- sessed him and permeated him. It seemed to many during these years that his zeal for unity was leading him to minimize funda- mentals of Christian doctrine. He was criticized for the breadth of his definition of the Catholic Church and especially for his latitudinarianism with regard to Holy Orders. The high point of his life and ministry was, Without any doubt, the First World Conference on Faith and Order convened in Lausanne in 1927, where, as President, he won not only the approval but the admiration and love of the delegates who had assembled from 40 different countries and represented 70 auton- omous Christian communions. His Death The Bishop's last great sermon was delivered in Canterbury Cathedral in November, 1928. It was, prophetically enough, on the subject: The Way to Peace. He was in England at the time to attend the enthronement of the new Archbishop of Canterbury. After the ceremony, on the advice of his physician, Sir Thomas Barlow, he did not return to America. He spent the next three months at the American Embassy in London, the guest of Ambas- 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD sador Houghton, where he passed the days in quiet and comfort, seeking recovery. Apparently somewhat improved in health and with the hope of gaining more strength, he undertook, in March, 1929, a trip across the continent through Switzerland to the Med- iterranean where he and Sir Thomas Barlow were to embark on the yacht Asia for a cruise. He arrived in Paris on March 21st and called on General Pershing and attended service at Holy Trinity Church on Palm Sunday, the last service he ever attended. He left Paris the next morning, stopping at Lausanne. Here in the city which had become the enduring symbol of his life, of his greatest contribution to Christendom he died March 27, 1929. The Bishop had copied in a book found in his room the following words of Theodore Roosevelt: The tree should lie where it falls. And so Lausanne became the final resting-place for this gallant, dar- ing, and consecrated soldier and servant of Christ. Bishop Brent, in his lifetime, was honored by many academic bodies and by the governments of several nations. He held three degrees from Trinity College, Toronto, his alma mater-Bachelor and Master of Arts and Doctor of Divinity. Honorary degrees were awarded him by King's College, Harvard University, Yale University, University of Glasgow, Columbia University, the Uni- versity of Rochester, Union College, the University of Toronto, and New York University. With humble pride he wore the Dis- tinguished Service Medal of the United States and the ribbons of a Commander of the Order of Leopold of Belgium, Companion of the Bath of England, Officer of the Legion of Honor of France. Considering the activity and fullness of his career as a mis- sionary bishop and Christian statesman, Bishop Brent might be called a relatively prolific writer. Twenty-one full-sized books appear over his name, not counting a sizeable number of pamph- lets, reports, and articles. As Bishop in a great communion in Christendom, and, in the opinion of many, its greatest song as a faithful servant of God, as a friend of humanity, as an apostle of Christian unity, as a prophet of a united world dwelling in harmony and peace, as a spiritual leader of fighting men in wartime, as a gifted preacher, brilliant lecturer and speaker, as one who was truly a man of God, and as President of the First World Conference on Faith and Order, Charles Henry Brent will long be held in honor. There are two types of successful men, the late Bishop Charles Lewis Slattery of Massachusetts once said. One type un- dertakes only such tasks as can be completed triumphantly with- in a definite time. These men announce their reasonable goal, and then, in their own lifetime, attain it. Brent was of the higher type, which dared to gaze far beyond the limits of one man's life, or of the immediate century or age. An adventurer he was on uncharted seas. f Reprinted by the kind permission of the Editor of the Holy Cross Magazine, West Park, New York.l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 tg QLA :ls ,ii . 1 5,111 ' fx ff., fsj' 3X 6 Q1 Q, ff 'fi ,X 521- we I .

V H I E Cn the first Sunday of the term, the School had the pleasure of hearing a short address delivered by Archbishop dePencier, retired Bishop of New Westminster, B.C., who had just returned from the meeting of the General Synod at Winnipeg. Archbishop dePencier spoke on the theme that to us is given the power to become the children of God, but that before this can be accomplished we must prepare ourselves in three ways, which he outlined to us. The Iirst was that we must give ourselves wholly to God, not only on Sundays, but on every day of the week. The second counsel that the Archbishop gave us, was that we must know ourselves, our dangers and our diffi- culties, as well as our physical and intellectual powers. Thirdly, he said, we must forget ourselves, that we must never be selfish, and as the prime example of unselfish devotion we were reminded of our Lord's sacrifice on the Cross. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In conclusion he gave us a short rhyme, which he said he had learned years ago, and which he asked us to re- member a.nd recite to him the next time he returns to the School. It was: Never tell a lie, Never say die, Never stick your finger in another buddy's pie. We are very indebted to Archbishop dePencier, and we sincerely hope that he will return soon. The Rev. E. R. Bagley preached his first sermon of the School year on Sunday, September 21. He commenced by deploring the state of affairs in the world today, say- ing that this is primarily due to the extreme selfishness and worldliness of people. The World clearly needs brotherhood, charity, trust and freedom from fear. At T.C.S. We have a perfect set- ting for understanding and practising these truths, and we must come to understand that spiritual Wealth is far more important than Worldly wealth. Jesus taught us this when He said, Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, - - - but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, - - - - for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also . In closing Mr. Bagley said that it is the comprehension of the spirit of God which will bring forth in us the things of most value. On Sunday, October 13, the Rev. J. M. Crisall, rector of St. John's Church, Port Hope, preached at Evensong. He commenced by telling us the story of the feast which King Solomon gave in honour of those who had built the Temple. The place of honour on his right had been reserved for the most skilful craftsman, but the assembled guests could not decide who it was among them TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 who merited this privilege. Just before the feast was to begin, a stranger entered and declared that he was the only man present who deserved the honour of sitting at the King's right. On finding that he was the blacksmith, the man who had done all the hard work and who had made the tools for those who were now getting the credit, the King immediately invited him to take the disputed place. This story, he pointed out, shows us that it has been largely the work of the unknown and unrecognized which has given us the great heritage which is ours. It is the duty of everyone to strive to live up to the principles of Christianity, for it is only through Christianity that we shall achieve progress, happiness and world-wide peace. In closing Mr. Crisall quoted Tennyson's famous lines Be loyal to the Royal , from which comes our challenge to help to lead the way to a better world, through the fel- lowship of our Lord, Jesus Christ. On Sunday, October 7, the Headmaster spoke in Chapel. He quoted the qualities mentioned by Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery as being vital in war and now more necessary than ever in peace. They were discipline, leader- ship and morale. The only worthwhile discipline in a democracy is self discipline, leadership comes through at- taining character C the sum of one's best thoughts and experiences translated into action J and respect, and morale is the product of faith and confidence in oneself and one's ideals. The Headmaster mentioned some gold ore which had been given to the School and said it reminded him of the vein of gold in every human beingg it had to be discovered, one had to dig for it, and then refine it. To-day we are at the cross roads of world progress. We have more power at our command than ever before but if We take the wrong path, become fearful and hostile, we shall slip into a dark age. God is our hope and strength and we must be doers of the Word and not hearers only. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Choir There were many friendly faces missing when the choir reassembled this term, among them Wade, Taylor i loboel, Gilbert, Palmer, Grier, Stokes, Hibbard, all from the Bass section. Caldbick, Crowe and Hawke i from the Tenors and Prower from the Altos. Without exception a more faithful, cheerful and use- ful lot of boys could not be more missed by any Choir- master and our sincere thanks are theirs for assistance. Nor must the Trebles be forgotten or their contribu- tion in time and effort be overlooked, Strathy, Peters. Lawson and Woods who were treble leads, also Moffitt and McKinnon, all have moved up to the Senior School and are not in the Choir pending vocal adjustment. As the Choristers were called upon to do the majority of the work in the Pirates of Penzance , both principals and chorus, entailing much extra practice, opportunities to prepare special music for Chapel services were curtailed considerably. We hope somehow to remedy this, this year. We welcome many new members who have volunteered to assist us. The Choir at present is as follows: Bass-Curtis, Taylor i, Campbell ii, Campbell iii, Law- son i, Deverall, Thompson ii, Pearson, James, Dalley, Powell. Tenors-Goering, Stewart, Watts, Newcomb, Graham and Boulden. Altos-Cooper, McKenzie, Butterfield, Bovey, and Tench and Ketchum from the J.S.

The School came second in the Empire with an average of 91.972, While Winning the Devonshire Trophy for coming first in the Dominion for the fifth consecutive year. The Band has also won a high distinction. For the first time in the history of the School, we won the Lieu- tenant J. G. Wiser trophy for the best cadet band in M.D. 3. We congratulate all the members of last year's band on their success. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 Smnmer Jobs This year, owing to the large number of returned sol- diers, summer jobs were not as plentiful as in previous years. In spite of this, many boys from the School did work and earned not only good wages but also valuable experience. A large number of these worked on farms, a very necessary job at any time but especially so this year, and they have the satisfaction of knowing that they have contributed to one of the largest harvests in Canada's his- tory. Several boys worked in summer resorts in all parts from the Atlantic coast to the Rockies. Summer camps give the young boys of Canada a splendid chance to spend part of their smnmer in the open air, and many boys from the School worked as counsellors-in-training in these camps. Among the most interesting jobs were those of Carson, who went on a month long oil prospecting trip in Northern Alberta, and McIntyre who was a stoker on a lake tanker, while McDowell i drove cars from Toronto to Timmins, and Cox i worked as a stevedore in Bermuda. From these few illustrations it is easy to see what interest- ing, useful and varied jobs were done by the boys of the School last summer. The New Tennis Court On Sunday, September 16, immediately after the morning Chapel service, the Schoo1's new hard tennis court was opened by Peter Pangman, the son of the donor, when he hit the first ball over the net to last year's champion, Brewer. This court is a great asset to the School, en- abling many more boys to play, as the two existing courts have been found insufficient for the large number of those who wished to use them. We are extremely indebted to Mrs. J. B. Pangman of Montreal for her very generous and much needed gift. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD New Boys' Picnic On Sunday, September fifteenth, immediately after the official opening of the new tennis court, about seventy boys, sixty-four of them new boys fplus the House Pre- fectsl were packed into cars and bounced to a very de- lightful spot near the ski camp. There, while the Head- master with the able assistance of Mr. and Mrs. Bagley, Mr. Knight, and Mr. Lewis, was preparing a sumptuous repast, the boys divided according to houses and played a. very spirited if not exactly skilful game of softball. After lunch it had been planned to continue the games, but this suggestion was voted down, and for two hours comparative silence reigned, broken only by the low voices of groups of boys sprawled under shady trees. Others scattered through the woods and along the river. This year's picnic will be remembered for the near disaster to Mr. Knight when he caught on fire while frying sausages in his special way. Many thanks are due to Mr. and Mrs. Ketchum and their assistants for a very enjoyable day. New Boys' Race The annual New Boys' race, part of the competition for the Magee Cup, was won by Wood i, followed closely by Cox ii and Austin.

We were very fortunate this year in that many of the Old Boys from Montreal Who would otherwise have been unable to be at the School for the Old Boys' week-end, were in Toronto for the McGill - Varsity football game, and were thus able to stop over at Port Hope on the way home. Festivities were officially started Sunday night, when a bonfire and singsong was held, at which Tom Wade and his accordian as in days of old, were very prominent. Mon- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 day morning, after a late breakfast attended by those old boys who had been able to drag themselves from make- shift beds in different parts of the School, the annual New Boys' race was held, followed by a short and not very energetic signal practice by the Old Boys All Stars . After a very substantial and tasty lunch, and another short session of all the old School songs and yells, it was amiounced that since an unexpected number of Old Boys had turned up, instead of the usual Old Boys vs. First Team football game, an inter-house game between the Old Boys would be held. The teams gave an excellent exhibition of football, Bethune winning out perhaps by superior weight and sub- stitutes. After tea at the Lodge the Old Boys departed on their various ways and the School seemed unusually quiet and almost empty. Sydney B. Saunders C16-'20J, Jim Kerr C33-'37J, D. D. Hogarth C38-'46l, S.

THE MUSIC LIBRARY I A superb classical record collection in the alcove off the dining hall is available to any Senior School boy at any time. The library was started in the early thirties by Alan Sly who gave a dozen odd records. Since he left the School in 1933, The Hon. R. C. Matthews and o-thers have been kind enough to make repeated contributions, and it has multiplied until we now have no less than seven hun- dred and fifty records valued at approximately one thou- sand dollars. A complete refiling is expected in the near future to keep up with the large number of recent dona- tions. The variety is large, designed to meet all tastes. Symphonies, operas, excerpts from various works of the great masters, down to the semi-classical modernists are to be found, played by full orchestras or a single soloist. Such a diversified collection is rarely found. Not many individuals will invest as much as one thousand dol- lars in a record library. We should all endeavour to spend an odd hour or two each term browsing around in the music library. Though popular music is pleasant, it rarely lives through the centuries as these incomparable classics have. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 At any rate, we should all occasionally be able to go to the regular Friday night music hours which give us a chance to sit stiH, listen to good music, and think things over for a while. Learning to appreciate music is essential to a broad education. Our music library gives us an opportunity to complete that education in our own free time. Such an opportunity should not be lost. -J.A.P., Form VIA. 1-1111-11,- Annual Meeting of the Trinity College School Ladies' Guild Mrs. Britton Osler, President, presided at the Forty- Third Annual Meeting of the Ladies' Guild on the after- noon of the 14th of May, at the Provost's House, Trinity College, Toronto. Mrs. Hugh Heaton, the Treasurer, tabled the financial statement Caudited through the kindness of Mr. H. H. Loosemorel and it was noted that 551,086.57 had been spent by the Guild in the interests of the School. Interesting reports were read from the Port Hope and Montreal Branches of the Guild. The President reported that the Ladies' Guild had been able to donate 5400.00 in bursaries in addition to the Helen Matthews Somerville Bursary and the Dudley Daw- son Bursary. The customary grants were made to the library for the purchase of books, and all three branches shared in the expenses in framing the photographs of Old Boys killed on Active Service. The resignation of two members of the Executive Committee, Mrs. Ernest Howard and Mrs Arthur Cayley, along with the retirement of Mrs. Strachan Ince, Mrs Ewart Osborne and Mrs. Humphrey Gilbert was noted with regret. Mrs. Osler's resignation as President of the Ladies' Guild after ten years of service was accepted with regret 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and Mr. Ketchum, the Headmaster, spoke of the great ser- vice rendered the School, so graciously and so capably, by Mrs. Osler. Mrs. Wotherspoon, President of the Port Hope Branch, moved a unanimous motion of appreciation to the retiring President. The nominating committee presented the following slate of officers for 1946-47 which was approved: President-Mrs. George Kirkpatrick. Vice-Presidents--Mrs. John Langmuir, Mrs. J. H. Gundy. Secretary-Mrs. E. B. McPherson. Treasurer-Mrs. Hugh Heaton. Four New Members to the Committee-Mrs. Lawrence Grout, Mrs. Joseph dePencier, Mrs. Harrison Gilmour, Mrs. Norman Kelk. After the Headmaster, and Mr. Tottenham,'Principa1 of the Junior School, had made short addresses, Mrs. Geo. Kirkpatrick, newly elected President, moved a vote of thanks to the Provost, Dr. Seeley, for allowing the meet- ing to be held in Trinity College, it was seconded by Mrs. Snowden, and the meeting adjourned for tea. ... i.i11----1 CHARLIE THE BARBER One day this fall a car pulled up outside a barber shop in down-town Port Hope and a middle-aged man stepped out. He entered the shop and was soon in an animated discussion with its proprietor. The man was a successful insurance agent who had come back to pay his respects to his beloved Alma Mater. He was not a resi- dent of Port Hope. Why then should he stop at a barber shop just to have a talk with its owner? The reason was evident, as the man who ran this shop was Charlie Fourt who had cut this man's hair some twenty odd years be- fore when he was a boy at T.C.S. Charlie has been cutting hair for more than twenty years though. His career as a barber started forty-six CAMERA STUDY FROM TRINITY HOUSE CLOISTER By S. P. Baker. Form VIA ss SHOT PUT BY W. J. BREWER Picture by Mr. Dennys. ,av 'vx Tunsurml Operation by Charlie the Barber C10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 years ago, and thirty-five have been spent cutting hair at the School. Since he has cut on the average twelve heads a night, for five nights a week, for about thirty-four weeks a year, for thirty-five years, he has given approximately seventy-one thousand, four hundred hair-cuts. fMr. Scott could doubtless calculate how many blades of hair were severed at T.C.S. by Charlie's sharp? shearsll Charlie was born in Port Hope in 1882 but soon moved to Buffalo. He started cutting hair when he was eighteen years old, and soon had a job in Peterborough. Back he came to his birth-place and cut hair where the Queen's Hotel dining room now stands. This was once a large barber shop and candy store according to Charlie. Possibly his call to the barber-shop may have been born in him, as five of his uncles are barbers, and several owned stores in Port Hope. Ever since he was a little boy he has been around a barber-shop and his natural inclina- tion to trim the heads of the nation was always his aim. Many of Canada's top men have borne a Charlie hair styling at sometime in their life, and three of T.C.S.'s Headmasters, Dr. Rigby, Dr. Orchard and Mr. Ketchum have had their hair dressed by Mr. Fourt. As a matter of fact Mr. Ketchum was a boy at T.C.S. when first Charlie's tools were used to trim his cheveux, but we had better say no more. Charlie says that he remembers Dr. Bethune, another Headmaster of the School, and that when he started to cut hair at T.C.S. the present School was not even thought of and the fire of 1928 had not destroyed the old buildings. The first Charlie hair-cuts were given on a box with a chair on top, but about ten years ago the School pro- cured through Charlie a new chair. This was a gift for Charlie. Mr. Fourt's daily schedule has been to go to work down-town at 9 a.m. and there to stay till 7 p.m. At 7.20 he would leave for the School on the hill and here he re- mained till 9.30 when he returned to his beloved shop to 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD sell tobacco for an hour or so. This well-rounded schedule would drive many men to exhaustion but not so Charlie! Today in his sixty-fourth year Charlie Fourt is as robust and happy as ever. He drinks only spring water from his own well C none of that town stuff J and never smokes any of his own cigarettes or tobacco. His only diversions are gold stocks, reading, and telling stories. His presence brings with it the happiness and sunshine of a busy successful life in the hairdressing business. Charlie says that if he took a trip around the world he would know boys in nearly every town of any size he stopped at, and we can quite believe it! Many old boys stop in each week just to see him, and he will long be re- membered by those to whom he gave the skill of his trade, and the sunshine of his smile. -D.A.C., Form VIA. , l f 2.991 HM . fl - .

However, we were able to find that in the Junior School, in the dim and distant past, he was a triple captain. This prowess in athletics stayed with him, for in the Senior School he proved that he was still an outstanding athlete. He won distinction caps in Hoc- key, Squash, and Cricket. The hockey team was graced with his presence for three years, and he captained it in his final year. It will be a long time before we shall forget his playing on the Juvenile champion hockey team of 1945, his defence work and his rushes the length of the ice brought the spectators to their feet time after time. He was a stalwart of our rugby backfield last year and besides this he was captain of the squash team which won the Little Big Four championship last year. Many will remember his superlative tennis which won for him the senior tennis trophy two years in a row. But that's not all because Ernst also played bigside cricket win- ing his colours for two seasons. .Last summer term he was elected captain but unfortunately he was not the scholarly type and he had to drop sports to concentrate on his senior matric. It obviously succeeded for he is now at McMaster. But sports were not the only thing in Ernie's life at School. In his last year as co-head Prefect he was the steadying influence in the School. Seldom perturbed, his good nature won a great many friends, for he never discarded that infectious smile. He also carried out his duties with great success. He was one of the few who could command respect and still re- tain popularity. The whole School joins in to thank Ernie Howard for turning in a magnificent job as leader of our School last year. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SINCLAIR, E. M.-Sinc, small but mighty, left us last year after a four year stay which was little short of miraculous. As an athlete he was unexcelled. He captained the football and swimming teams in his last year and for his outstanding work in the former he gain- ed the Little Big Four All Star Team and also a distinc- tion cap. He was vice-captain of the hockey squad, where he also obtained a distinction cap, and he was also vice- captain of the cricket team. He won his weight in box- ing and was an important member of the track team. As a result of all these outstanding achievements he was awarded the Jack Langmuir challenge trophy for the best all round athlete. It was Sinc's fiery never-say- die spirit that gained him such achievements. He was a scrappy fighter CErnie Howard never did over-power himll and it was this that gave him the jump on larger and heavier athletes. A brief account of Hubie's athle- tic prowess is not enough to be said about him. For he was more than an exceptional athleteg he was a leader and at the same time a swell guy liked by all. As Head Pre- fect he was one of the best and he carried out his duties and responsibilities ably and well. Sinc was one of the most popular boys in the School, for combined with all these successes he had a friendly, cheerful manner which was seldom far beneath the surface and most of the time bubbling over. He was also one of the brainier kind-he got to Ajax any way-and was an excellent Editor of the Record. All in all Sinc accomplished more in four years than most of us would in eight and it was with great sadness that the School said goodbye to Hubie Sinclair. A good job well done, Sinc. MCMURRICH, J. R.-Stick ambled into T.C.S. way back in '42 with a host of other notables and began to make many friends with his engaging, easy-going and unsel- fish manner. By his last year Stick had reached the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 top in all fields of life here. He was a Prefect, a mem- ber of the football squad for two years-a place where his unselfishness was shown repeatedly in his handling of the ball-a forward for three years on the hockey team, where his easy-going nature asserted itself in the useful occupation of goal sitting. tHe always led the scoring we might add.J He was Vice-Captain of Squash for two years. Stick wasn't content to take up these sports only, but also indulged in a little basketball dur- ing his spare time from hockey, and proved of great assistance towards the end of the cold weather, when hockey activities came to a standstill. He was also a good student, though a bit nonchalant at times-and could when the going got touch, do very well for himself. He has now advanced to a higher level of learning at Ajax, and we wish him the best of luck for the future. WADE, T. M.-When Tommy came to Bethune House in '42 a new era began. With his laughing face and boom- ing voice and his accordian he ruled all the informal gatherings in the School until he left last year. He will long be remembered for his Bar Harbour Maniacs and his Zumba song and even more for his genial good nature, and fun-loving disposition. As well as being the life of the party, Tom was an athlete. He was a mem- ber of the C.O.S.S.A. champions in his first year and in his final two years played snap and centre secondary on Bigside. He earned his basketball colours for three years inarow and in his last year was vice-captain. He never could quite figure out cricket enough to get beyond Middleside, however. Last year he left at Easter so as to devote his time entirely to his work and by these efforts squeezed through his senior matric and is now at Victoria. Tommy was a Prefect when he left his many friends last Easter and we know he will be as popular and successful at College as he was at The School on the Hill . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD GREENWOOD, F. M.-Freddy entered Bethune way back in the distant past and at once he began to make many friends with his quick wit, bright ideas and team spirit. Football Freddy was one of the best Middles the team has ever had and was in his second and last year on the squad he was voted a member of the Little Big Four All Star team. In hockey, Fred was our sub-goalie in his last year and though he never got a chance to show his stuff he was always ready if the emergency ever came. Leaving the athletic realm and turning to the academic side of life, we find that Fred had quite a brain-when he got the urge that is. As a Prefect he carried his responsibilities well, and always knew his own mind. Freddy is at McGill this year and though we shall miss him we know that he cannot help but continue his suc- cess there. GILBERT, P. H.-Moon came to T.C.S. in the fall term of '42 and ever after he continued to amaze the inmates with his baby-like voice both on and off the stage, his pass receiving in football and his superb stick handling in hockey. In football he held down the end position on the team for two years and continually inspired the best of his teammates by his scintillating runs down the field through the thick of the rival defence. In hockey he was a star centre on the team for three years who roused the spectators more than once with his many rushes towards the enemy goal. Moon was a Prefect when he left us last year and with his ever-ready smile and hearty laugh was one of the best liked boys around School. He also was a singer of note-both formally and informally. His work was astounding to say the least-in geometry he had quite an original mind! Mooner has now passed on to other fields of conquest and we all wish him the best of luck for the future. iii-1. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 DECKER, D. A.- Dorky Davey Decker with the Dinked Knee was a song last year that was as popular as any on the Hit Parade. It seems that the hero of this tender ballad played Bigside Rugby and had a bad knee. How- ever, this gallant fellow overcame this difficulty to be- come the president of The Fumblers Club , fU.T.S. please notel. But seriously, Dink Decker was a formid- able player for Bigside for two years and added a great deal to our backfield. He was also a track and field man and in Spring he would don his track shoes or put the shot. In '45 he was a stalwart but last year owing to his studies C'?J he was forced to the sidelines in an attempt to snag an elusive Senior Matric. The Dork rose from the ranks of a senior to Prefect in his last year and commanded a great deal of respect in the School. Aside from these duties Dink found time to debate. He was a forceful speaker and represented the School in its contests. His debating was not confined to the hall, for he was frequently seen in heated argu- ment with anyone who cared to oppose him. He had various techniques of winning these, all of which resem- bled wrestling. But Dink's crowning achievement was the way he guided Brent House to a victory on Inspection Day. He put a great deal of work into training the cadets and he was finally rewarded. We feel that we have lost a member who was a great asset to the School and we Wish him the best of success in getting his Honour Matric this year. -11 GIBSON, J. G.-The hearty Gibbon with his mighty muscles came to the School in '42 and immediately set about to find the gym. He found it alright and remain- ed there for a good part of his time at T.C.S. As a re- sult, this amazing lad became one of the finest gymnasts the School has ever had. He won the gym. competition two years in a row and was captain and won a distinc- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tion cap in his final year. Gib also played football and although he never made the first team he was one of those dependable yet unknown subs in his final year. He was on the swimming team and the Record Staff and was also quite a debater. Gib worked hard at his studies and obtained surprisingly good marks for one with so many extra-curricular activities. We wish him the best of luck for the future, and hope he'1l visit the School often. PHIPPEN, W. G.-Phip, of motorcycle and toboggan fame, breezed into T.C.S. with his mad schemes way back in '41, and since then has become one of the more outstand- ing personalities in the School. In his last year he was a House Prefect and a member of the Sixth Form, but he was handicapped in his sports by two unfortunate occurrences. A bad spill in tobogganing in the winter of '45, landed him in the hospital with a broken leg, and the consequent lameness prevented him from a sure posi- tion on the football team last fallg while a serious nose bleed kept him from competing in the gym. competitions until last year, when despite this defect, he made the first team with ease-a thing he could have done three years ago. Phip was also a stalwart member of the smoker, though before he left he had taken his smoking over to a more privileged place. As Bigside Manager he carried a mean Water bucketg we hope this valuable experience will stand him in good stead for the future. Bill found peacetime standards at university a touch high and consequently he is now a salesman in Toronto. May his friendly disposition charm as many buyers as it did T.C.S. boys. KIRKPATRICK, R. M.--Last year Kirk battled his way through a year beset with numerous difficult duties. He had always been a tireless worker for the Record Staff TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 and in his final year proved to be a capable School News Editor. He never received the full credit due for this demanding job, but he always managed to complete his tasks efficiently. Besides this he managed to squeeze in time to look after the debates in the hall. He was on the debating staff and also represented the School on its debating team. Although not a natural athlete he play- ed on Bigside Rugby. His forte was swimming and he was Vice-Captain of the first swimming team. Not only did he churn the pool with mighty strokes, but he also helped and coached the younger boys in their swimming. The Spaniel also worked like a dog over his studiesg undoubtedly his Geometry proofs would have astounded Euclid himself. Nevertheless he got his Honour Matric. Because of his reliability Kirk was made a House Prefect. As all good things must come to an end, the School had to say goodbye to Kirk and his beard last June. . BARBER, J .- Ba Ba , to those who knew him well, was a stalwart on both Bigside Soccer and Cricket. For his excellent performance in the former he was awarded a distinction cap, and in the latter he won the batter's prize in his last year for the best average. Jimmy also took up squash in his final year and with characteristic determination kept plugging away at the game until he earned himself a position on the Little Big Four Cham- pionship team. Jim, in his first years at T.C.S., gave one the impression of being the quiet and reserved type but in his last two years he seemed to wander out of his shell with a singularly sheepish grin on his face to become one of the most popular of the School characters fand let me emphasize the word character J. He left us last year a House Prefect and our very best wishes go with Jim as he enters the University of Toronto. We are sure that he will win many friends wherever he goes. 1-1-i TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MAIN. F. J.-Jerry came to the School back in 1942. It was not great physical magnitude that made him a standout, but rather that inimitable personality. A surprisingly quick wit was soon found under Jerry's usually placid expression. In the first two years Jerry kept a watchful eye on the Lodge dorm, and in this capacity he showed many signs of responsibility and character which later were the main reasons for his pro- motions in the School. An inside on Middleside in his last year, Jerry was a tower of strength on that team's line. He was also a star backstroker on the swimming team. Outstanding success crowned Jerry's efforts in the classroom and also as President of the Political Science Club. Jerry was the author of many fine articles in the Record . A House Prefect in his last year, Jerry is now sojourning at Princeton and we wish him the very best of luck there. AUSTIN, A. M.-Bunny came to the School in '43 with a rather amazing and extensive vocabulary and left last June with it considerably increased. While acquir- ing this questionable asset he also distinguished him- self in many other departments. A student of no small worth, he regularly inhabited the top forms and, owing to these efforts, is now comfortably installed at Vic- toria College in Toronto. He did not, however, tire him- self so much at his studies that he had no energy left for anything else. Indeed his outstanding characteristic seemed to be his energy especially when it applied to rtmning. To see Mac walking any distance was a rare spectacle. This passion for running was finally turned into something useful when in his last year he ran- and won-the Oxford Cup in the best time since the record was set. For this outstanding performance he was awarded a distinction cap and none was merited more than his. Bun was also a football enthusiast and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD was an excellent inside on the first team last year. He ended an extensive hockey career on the celebrated juvenile team and led that team in penalties. All in all Bunny's life here was Worthy of the highest praise and in justification of this he was made a House Prefect in his final year. May he run through college as success- fully as he did here! ! ,1 FISHER, G. N.-Fish struggled up the hill leading to T.C.S. in 1943 and after squeezing through the doors of Brent, he settled down to practise the art of taking life easy While at the same time obtaining good marks. The Imperturbable Falstaff with his Oh that's so easy cer- tainly accomplished this for not only was he always in the top forms while here, but he also in his last year was acclaimed co-winner with Willer Toole for the Chancellor's Prize for Head Boy. Fish, however, didn't restrict himself to work only, for he was a stalwart- those whom he hit know that-member of both the football and hockey teams while at the same time being Johnny on the spot when anything unpredictable hap- pened in his vicinity. This capability coupled with his quiet humour made him one of the most popular boys in the School, and earned him the promotion to House Pre- fect. It is certain that we shall all miss him, but we can, in the words of the man himself, console ourselves with the thought that T.C.S.'s loss is McGill's gain. May he keep up his success in his activities in future years. TOOLE, W. J. A.-This cowboy rode up the Port Hope hill for the first time in September of 1943 and settled firmly into the life of T.C.S. Even though he came from the small cow-town of Calgary, Bill was one of the best athletes and one of the brighter boys in the School. He was a Little Big Four All Star end in football and won a distinction cap for his work as cap- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tain of basketball. Willer was also renowned for his fine C?l voice, heard in the chorus of The Pirates of Penzance and also to a lesser extent in the choir. Willie was a senior in the sixth form in his last year, and he was co-winner of the Chancellor's Prize for Head Boy. Bethune's bottom flat certainly misses that boy from the Golden west and wishes him luck at the University of Alberta. D lT LAMBERT, K. C.-Our Teddy Bear waddled into Be- thune House in the fall term of '43 and immediately settled down to make the best of his stay during his so- journ here. Ken was a versatile lad in all ways of life, winning in recognition of this the 2nd Year Challenge Trophy-awarded to the boy who seems to have fitted himself best into the life of T.C.S. during his second year-and also a promotion to senior in his last year. He was a star member of both the hockey and gym. squads. being elected Vice-Captain of the latter. He was a member for two successive years of both Bigside Foot- ball and Cricket. Besides these major activities he was a very valuable asset to both the swimming and track during his three years here. However, it isn't enough to reel off his athletic successes for K. C. was also noted for his studies-a brain you know-and above all for his stylish dress. The moustache l'?l went so well with those blue pants! Ken has now passed on to Queen's University where he hopes to study Medicine, and al- though he will be greatly missed this year, we certainly wish him the best of luck. And what's more you'1l be a man, my son. MACDONALD, B. A.- Moose slouched into Bethune House in the fall of '43 as a tall, thin new boy and be- came a great source of worry to both masters and privi- legcs. Three years later he left T.C.S. a senior with two TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD iirst team colours and a scholarship. When he left he was still the playful, fun-loving, easy-going boy he was when he came but he had become also popular and successful in all his undertakings. He was a big middle on the foot- ball team and a star centre on the hockey squad and in both earned first team colours. Although he wielded a wicked bat in cricket and was on the first squad he was able to get Middleside colours only. Bruce's extra- curricular activities included bridge, telling jokes and finding ways to make life pleasant i?J for Hawke! In spite of all these he remained well-liked with his cheer- ful face and slow drawl seldom failing to produce a laugh. He is going to Queens this year to follow in his brother's footsteps and we hope he'll find the life as rosy as he had hoped! HARDAKER, J. S.-Johnny came to T.C.S. five years ago and in his own quiet and unpretentious way settled quickly down into School life. However, this reserve on his part prevented many from knowing him well and it wasn't till his last year, that most of us came to know him as he really was-a level headed, good-natured fel- low. He did what few would ever do in a school where athletics mean so much, he gave up sports to concentrate on the one weak link in his accomplishments-his studies. Consequently he passed by the chance to star in both cricket and hockey, in order to better his standing in work. To pass away his spare time he entered into the smoker where he became in his last year the President of this noble institution. Johnny also rose to the rank of senior in the same year, and in this capacity he be- came even better known by all of us. When he said goodbye last year he left behind a gap which will be hard to fill. Adios Amigo. Bueno suerte! 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BARROW, F. A.-Three cheers for Quebec! Tony and his host of descriptive French adjectives invaded the School in September '43. During his three years with us, his self-invented board hockey game gave many of his chums hours of relaxation I ?J and enjoyment. Gaspe played soccer and hockey, but we remember him best as a fine runner. Despite a handicap of flat feet, he was determined to be a runner like his father, who won the Oxford Cup and other races here in 1922. In his new- boy year Tony finished second in the new boys' race and seventh in the Oxford Cup race. When he said good- bye to us as a senior last June, Tony left a trail behind him seldom equalled in the annals of racing at T.C.S. Last spring he won the senior 220, 440, 880, and mile run and finished second in the 100 yards at the School meet, thereby earning the only first team track colour , in the School. For two years in a row he streaked across the finish line at the Little Big Four meet to win the mile run. Last fall he finished third in the Oxford Cup . . . . Si Boire ! ! -an enviable record.

I have often attempted to discover his hide- out when I am strong enough to destroy him, but he is evasive, and comes out of hiding only when I am weak and helpless. For Fear is a bully and a coward, striking those who are weakest and most ignorant, and evading the strong and intelligent. I cannot remember when first he attacked me, nor how often I have come face to face with him, but I do re- member my two worst struggles against him. They are easy to remember because they occurred under contrasting situations. When I was six years of age, my mother took me to see the Exhibition in Toronto for the first time. It was a tremendous adventure for me, and I was dazed by the colour and clamour of the merry-go-round, roller-coaster, ferris-wheels, and sideshows, but, above all, by the jostling, laughing, rushing crowds. This was a new world of dreams for me, and I was carried away beyond description by the thrill of the experience. Mother had great difficulty hold- ing me by the hand, for I was forever trying to run to inspect and to touch some new and interesting object, or to shout at and imitate some amusing performer. We had wandered about for some time when we decided to stop for TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 a rest on a park bench. It was about noon, and our car was only a short distance away, so mother parked me on the bench with specific orders to remain there until she re- turned with the picnic lunch that we had packed the night before. She had not been gone two minutes when along came a magnificent band of Scottish pipers. Although I remembered mother's strict orders, and foresaw the paddling that I would surely receive, I felt that this was an opportunity that I should never again be given. With a bound I was off the bench, and on the heels of those colourful pipers. A tremendous crowd swept me along with the band, and I was bursting with the joy of the spritely music, and dancing along to the rhythm of their marching feet. Everyone around me seemed joyful and happy, and the spirit of careless joviality filled me with exultation. And then, my dream bubble burst. All at once the band entered a large building and disappeared, just as the Pied Piper had vanished into a magic mountainside. The music was gone, the marching rhythm was gone, and the colour and clamor of the crowd died out and vanished. I found myself alone and very lonely. Looking around. I did not recognize my surroundings, nor could I remember which way the band had come-I was lost. The crowd be- came a terrible, endless mass of beastsg the buildings be- came huge mountains that shut me ing the din about me became a mocking, moaning thunder. Panic seized me. I began to rim about and to cry out to anyone to help me. I must have been a pitiful sight, for over and over again I tripped in my wild haste and scraped my knees and elbows. But no one seemed to notice me or, as far as I could see, care about me. Fear had a very firm grip on me, and I was no match for him. I fell on the sidewalk and cried my eyes out. I have no idea how long it was before I felt myself lifted into the air by strong arms. Through my tears I saw before me the kindly face of a policeman. He told me 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD that he would soon find my mummy , and took me to a building where I was given an ice cream cone and a book of fairy tales. After a short while, mother arrived tolfind me happily licking my cone and turning the pages of my book, which was upside down. She gave me a warm kiss and a severe scolding, and, thanking the policeman, set off for home, undoubtedly with plans for a suitable punish- ment. if Sl? if Ill' :F My second and most terrifying experience happened three years later during my summer vacation among the beautiful islands of Georgian Bay. Father had rented a small cottage on a little island, and we were very happily situated. Late one afternoon I collected my fishing tackle and set out in our rowboat to find some new and fruitful fish- ing ground. It was a beautiful day for fishing. Light refreshing showers had cleansed the mossy carpet of the rocks, and now the sun was flashing from the glistening face of the bald, rugged shoreline, and streaking across the shivering surface of the bay. A rainbow leaned over me in a lazy, graceful arc. I was disappointed that I was not a painter or a poet, for the scene was one of utter peace and beauty. There was not a sign of civilization within my sight, the whole earth was mine for those few hours. Coming upon a shoal, I cast my line, removed my shirt, and lay back on a cushion to drink in the warmth of the sun. My boat drifted lazily along as I lay back and forgot all my worldly cares. The sun made me shut my eyes, and soon I was lost in happy dreams. When I regained consciousness, my boat was grazing against the rocky shoreline of some alien cove. I had not the slightest notion where I was. Coming to my senses with a start, I peered about me inquisitively. All at once I noticed that the sun was no longer in sightg the deep golden haze of the summer sunset warned me that dark- ness was slowly but steadily approaching. Gathering in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 my line, and donning my shirt, I headed out of the cove in hopes of recognizing my surroundings from the open lake. The water in the bay was choppy and unfriendly, and I did not recognize the surrounding islands. Remem- bering that I had started out northward from our cottage, I headed southward, rowing with frantic energy. Soon it became obvious that darkness would overtake me, and as this realization dawned on me, the long arms of Fear be- gan to stretch out to clutch me. The chilly breeze of the August evening made my teeth chatter. The expanse of water around me spread away and away, and although I rowed with all my might, I did not seem to be making any progress. A sharp, powerful wind spread across the even- ing sky a heavy blanket of black clouds, and soon not a single star remained to give me company. A few hours ago a peaceful world had been all mine--now I was its slave, and it was transformed to an ugly, merciless master. I began to cry out, but the only answer I received was the hoHow echo of my feeble voice from the rocky shore across the bay. Sick with hunger and fatigue, I thought of land- ing on an island, but the prospect of wild animals and snakes denied me even this refuge. Suddenly the sky was alight as if a switch had been pressed. The light disappeared as fast as it had come, and the next moment a terrible crash resounded across the water. It was the prelude to one of the August lightning storms for which Georgian Bay is famous. These freak storms often occur when least expected, lasting sometimes for several hours, sometimes for just a few moments. Sel- dom are they accompanied by rain. The whole of the sky is ablaze like daylight for-a fraction of a second, then pitch darkness returns in the wink of an eye. Occasionally the clouds spit out long yellow knives of lightning to destroy some beautiful pine, or to start a fire. The weird spectacle inspired in me every emotion from wonder to fear. I lost even the strength to row,-and crouched helplessly in that open boat praying for help. It seemed an eternity before 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD I detected between the crash of thunder and roaring wind a faint but continuous ringing. Snatching up the oars again, I headed in the direction from which the ringing came. New energy and strength was given me by this familiar sound. It was too dark to recognize my surround- ings, but when lightning flashed above, I could in that second see a long way ahead. I circled several small islands, praying all the time that the ringing would not cease, and suddenly found myself again in our own little bay. Far across the water I could see the family standing on the rock above the cottage with several lanterns and flash- lights, and ringing our cowbell. They soon heard my shouts, and scrambling down to the water's edge, made a very welcome reception party. You can be sure that it was many days before I again ventured away from our bay alone ..... . Looking back on these two incidents, I have tried to discover why I was so afraid when there was really little real danger, why Fear made my imagination run away with me, and why I lost my self-control and common sense. The obvious answer seems to be that Fear's most power- ful ally is Ignorance, and his most powerful enemy, In- telligence. If we would try to understand and analyze the situation fully at a time when we would ordinarily be- come afraid, and if we could stop to use our heads rather than lose them, we could always defeat Fear no matter how trying the circumstances, nor how numerous his allies. -T.W.L., Form VIA. AN AZTEC RITUAL The day of the renowned Aztec Penance festival had arrived. We were of the few white people ever to witness this example of religious fervor, and as it was, we who know Mexico hardly expected to see an example of such ancient rituals performed so near the modern City of Mexico. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47 The ceremony was to be held in an old Spanish church in a very peaceful setting up in the mountains, about thirty miles from Mexico City. It is a festival which has come down from the days preceding the conquest of Mexico by Hernan Cortes, which. since the advent of Christianity in these regions, has be- come slightly more moderate in its pagan frenzy. The central points of interest are the poor people who. in their simple and misguided faith, have prayed to God to help them in any tribulation which may have beset them, such as illness, death, or injury. In their prayers they promise God a penance of self-sacrifice if their prayers are fulfilled. So the people, as payment, put them- selves through an excruciatingly painful self-sacrifice, which is illustrative of the failure of the Christian mis- sionaries in this region. This penance is usually the same. The penitents go blindfolded from the highway to the church whence they crawl on their bare knees, accompanied by friends who spread their coats or shirts in their paths as they go. Con- sidering the character of the volcanic rock found in these regions, one can well imagine the condition of their knees after this ordeal. Dancing around these people come the Aztec priests and helpers, dressed up in their traditional cloaks and caps and exotic feather head-dresses, which are a glorious blaze of colour. These clothes are examples of gorgeous bead work and beautiful patterns of colour, which have been passed down for generations. When the penitents and their followers finally reach the church, they come before the Altar for a blessing. When that is over the town people take a tremendous white, wooden cross into the church to be blessed. After a long service of incantations and incense burning it is brought out to the church yard. The people now deck it with flowers and stick it upright in front of the church door. 48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At this point we lose all sight of Christianity, and the service breaks forth into a bedlam of Aztec rituals and dances. The participants now dance frantically around the cross, playing a variety of home-made instruments. Every now and then the music and chanting suddenly stops, and they all move in an ever narrowing circle towards the cross to perform some intricate and detailed part of the ritual. Then as suddenly as it stopped all hell breaks loose again. This goes on steadily for five days and nights with fifteen minutes rest in every hour. The colours are beautiful-the colourful costumes worn by the peasants mingled with the colours of the ancient Aztec ceremonial robes, giving the service an atmosphere of exotic iridescent colour. To stand aside and watch such a ceremony with fur- tive glances cast at you by the people is hardly comfort- able. The very fervor with which the service is conducted, fills one with horror and misgiving, the horror often verg- ing on pity. It must be a truly horrible sight to see those devils from a long past era dancing all through the night around a cross in a church yard by firelight, and listening to their incantations piercing the shadows of the night. Though We were invited, we respectfully but firmly declined the invitation to stay. We had seen enough. -G.A.P., Form VIA BLIZZARD He waited until a shrill gust of wind tore past his cabin and again set his mind to his problem. The strap that had held three of his strongest huskies had somehow parted as the night closed in. He knew it would be futile to try to find them in the blizzard once night had come. He realized, crest-fallen, that storms of this sort sometimes took many days to pass on south. His cabin was at the edge of the timberline so he had plenty of fuel, and he had enough food to last a week, but it was not that that wor- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 ried him. With his team weakened as it was, it would be impossible to bring his pelts through the great wastes east of the Yellowknife down to the post on the Great Slave Lake. He pressed his face against the small pane of glass that was the only window in the cabin. Great driving sheets of snow flew through the beam of light coming from the window and dashed against the thick walls. His tired body instinctively thrust the problem aside, and before the fire had died, Pierre was asleep. In the morning the blizzard howled over the great white world as strongly as it had done in the darkness the night before. Pierre decided that he must above all, con- sider his dogs. As he stepped outside his cabin the storm bit into his face, and to see at all he had to squint. He knew the huskies would have followed the edge of the forest to gain protection from the blizzard. He had not walked a mile when he heard a noise above the screeching of the wind. Pausing to throw back his hood he heard it again. It was the howl of a timber wolf. Before he had put his hood on there came an answer from the north. As he turned back, not a little apprehensively, towards his cabin, he knew what had happened to his dogs. Either they had turned wild or had fallen prey to their more powerful cousins. Pierre was no coward, but he knew enough of wolves to have a very genuine fear of them. These were the thoughts that went through his mind as he fed the rest of his team and chopped some wood. Even while he silently fretted the night away inside his cabin, he found himself listening for the dread call to raise itself eerily above the storm. He only heard it once, but it involuntarily started his imagination roving. He could see, now, in his mind's eye, the long grey shadows running silent and dreadful over the snow. He could see them running through the trees, through the great swirls of snow thrown by the storm. The crackling of the fire brought him back with a start to the warmth and safety of his cabin. 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD He knew men had been driven mad by listening to their fears, and yet his thoughts would not turn away from the dangers that faced him. If anyone were out on a night like this, he would not stand much of a chance. For if he stopped for a rest and fell asleep the storm would cover him and, frozen, he would die unnoticed in the northern wastes. Pierre would have hated to go out that door, for mixed with his material fears was superstition, and when he went out at night he was afraid to look at the black- ness that stretched back from the trunks of the trees near- by. Suddenly he remember his axe! He had forgotten it when he had come in. If the blizzard had covered it up . . . . Without a second thought he opened the door and ran knee-deep into the drifts. Momentarily blinded. he did not realize his mistake until he heard the heavy door slam. It had automatically locked, and the key was in his parka inside. The door had been made to stand the punishment of a northern winter, and the great logs would not budge for all his frantic pounding. Once outside the cabin, his fears had closed in on him, and it was some seconds before he thought of his axe. If he could only find it! There, clad only in his shirt, he began groping through the snow where he thought he had left the axe. He did not know that his fingers were already too cold to feel it even if he had located it. Desperate, he ran around to the window and tried to raise himself. He was weak and his arms were numb. He thrust one hand through the glass and did not notice he had cut it deeply in several places. Pierre suddenly felt very sleepy, and the strong beam of light from the open- ing only dimly reached his brain. He was so tired he had to rest a while. His fingers no longer clawed at the logs, but slipped senselessly over the slippery surface. Pierre was so sleepy that without any deliberation he stumbled a few steps, and sank into the drifts. Soon his body was covered, and the blizzard roared undisturbed over the great flat wilderness. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 The thaw in the spring found a half-breed checking his traps along the banks of the Yellowknife. One day he came upon a trapper's cabin. To his surprise he saw the body of a man lying only a few paces from the window. On emptying his pockets he found a chain of keys, one of which opened the door of the cabin. The half-breed. accustomed to the whims of nature in the great north, stood mystified at the edge of the timberline for a long while, -G.B.T., Form VIA. ON DREAMING One night about a htuidred years ago, a young man fell asleep after a tiring day of work. He had been labour- ing on his invention, and it now lacked only one detail, that of connecting the needle with the thread. For his in- vention Was no other than the common sewing-machine. and the inventor-Elias Howe! During that night he had a strange and significant drea.m. He was in a remarkable land and had been captured by an even more remarkable people, he was on trial before the king of the land, and the verdict had been guilty, whereupon the king had ordered his immediate execution. At once four huge guards ap- peared, armed with sharp spears, each having a strange hole through the pointed end. They approached him with obvious intent of running him through, and at this point, the inventor awoke! But he did not forget the detail of the spear, and soon, by adding the thread to the pointed end of the needle, his invention was complete and its suc- cess tremendous. Now this little story of how a dream caused the suc- cess of a man in life, though uncommon, leads one to be- lieve that perhaps there is more in a dream than one would think off-hand. Take for example, the Word dream itself. It can be traced back to a root meaning joy. Is it not then probable that the condition of life in the so-called carefree middle ages had left its mark in the type of dreams which the people at that time had? 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Dreaming, as most people know, originates in the sub- conscious mind which remains awake when the conscious one is asleep. What is more commonly not realized though, is the fact that the sub-conscious stores up everything which a person has noted at one time or another during his life. Thus often in dreams, facts appear which would otherwise have remained forgotten in the dreamer's mind. This property sometimes leads to strange circumstances. For instance, there is the story of a man on trial for mur- der a few years ago. The witness could not recall a salient fact which could save the life of the accused. The trial being long and drawn out tho-ugh, after a few hours the witness fell into a light slumber in the court. A few minutes later he awoke, he had had a dream, his sub- conscious mind had remembered the fact and, as a result the accused was saved. ' The above example leads to another speculation. Is there any connection between the condition of the body and the type of dream? Actually, this has been found to be true. Amusingly enough, a person sleeping with no blankets over his body, would quite likely have a dream connected with flying, similarly, a person asleep with barn yard odours in his nostrils, might dream of animals. Dreams also cause reactions in the dreamer. For example, in the case of a dog, dreaming of the hunt, an observer will notice the animal paw the ground, grunt, fin the dream it would be a barkl and lick his chops, as if in sub-con- scious anticipation of his prey. An inquiring mind might ask the question, What is the purpose of the dream? It is said that everything has a purpose, yet I fail to see any connection with the state of dreaming. The answer to this question has been sought for, yet it, like many other unknown facts con- nected with that strange, almost supernatural function of the mind, ever remains a mystery. A mystery as common as the very life, yet inexplicable as death itself! -J.S.M., Form VA. Q I 5 -N , 'l .

Stevenson iWe print the following, believing it to be of much archaeological value, with the kind permission of Mrs. P. H. Douglas to whom the late Lt. Col. Stevenson gave these details of his discovery.J In November, 1921, I had obtained leave from my military duties in Baghdad, and was paying a visit to Major Jeffries, the political officer at Diwaniyah on the Euphrates, who was a friend of mine. One day, while there, an Arab brought in a cone-shaped, cuneiform tablet and offered it to Major Jeffries. The latter was not par- ticularly interested in Archaeology, but, knowing that I was,he passed it on to me. After some work I identified it as having obviously come originally from the site of Isin. Now I knew that professional archaeologists had sought this site in vain for many years. Many ingenious theories as to its position had been advanced, but, as it turned out, these were all very wide of the mark. So I made a point of returning to Diwaniyah, and after some delay, Major Jeffries once again produced the Arab, whom he knew well. This man informed me that he had dug it up from a mound called Bahriyat , the most eastern of a clump of mounds named by the Arabs Tel Bahri . There was no mention of the mound in the Ordnance Survey map of the district, but Major Jeffries unearthed an old sketch map, made by the R. E. during the war, and there it was, under its correct name. It lies some seven- teen miles south east of Diwaniyah. Through pressure of military work and other causes I was prevented from ever reaching the mound myself, but Professor Langdon of Oxford, to whom I reported the discovery on my return to England in 1922, agreed to visit it when out with the Oxford expedition, excavating at Kish. This he did in due course, and verified the identi- fication. TRINITY U COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 A description of the mound may be found in the Encyclopaedia Britannica. It lies in thirty-one degrees. fifty-one minutes North and forty-five degrees, seventeen minutes East. The slight excavation carried out by Lang- don showed that the site had been re-occupied in Neo Babylonian times. if SF Il? if fl A Brief History of Isin The history of Isin is only vaguely known, for thc mound itself has never been excavated, and one can only piece it together in a general way by endeavouring to syn- chronize tablets that have been found in other mounds. Indeed there is an historical lacuna of about two hundred years, involving the rise of Babylon, which will only be filled when the important mound of Tel Bahri, the site of Isin, has been properly excavated. Its dominion existed for two hundred and twenty-five years, commencing 2357 B.C. and followed immediately after the fall of the third dynasty of Ur. For some two millenniums the struggle for supremacy had been waged between the Sumerian cities of the South and the Semitic. or Akkadian, cities of the North, the dominion oscillating continually from one to the other, and the conflict resulted in the evolution of a very great civiliza- tion. The struggle between the two came to an end with the third, and greatest, Dynasty of Ur .... a Sumerian cityg and after its fall the final contest for sovereignty of the country was waged between other nations that had entered on the scene, until Babylon won and retained the hegemony, off and on, for nearly two thousand years. During the reign of Gimilsin, the fourth king of this Ur dynasty, one of the periodic movements of Western peoples down the Euphrates was commencing. The Amori- tes, probably in small parties, were making constant raids into the fertile plain between the two rivers, while at the same time the Elamites, from the uplands of Iran in the East, were giving him constant anxiety. He built a great 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD wall, called Murik-Tidnim fthe Wall of the Westj, as a defence against Amorite raids. He also conducted expedi- tions into Elam, and seems to have temporarily subdued the country, for a brick of his has been found at Susa. His son, Ibi-sin, was the last king of the dynasty, and reigned for twenty-five years. Isin is frequently men- tioned about this period as being subject to Ur, but the city appears to be one of late foundation. Ibi-sin also sent one or more expeditions into Elamg but in his twenty-fifth year the Elamites invaded the country, conquered Ur, and carried Ibi-sin himself away captive. This closed the dynasty of Ur. Isin probably suffered the same fate. The revival of power after the retirement of the Elamites is marked by the rise of a new dynasty at Isin, largely Semitic in its complexion, although the city itself was Sumerian. Ishbi-Urra, the first king, is called the man from Mari , a city high up the Euphrates where excavation has recently been proceeding, and he seems to have been the strongest man of action left in Sumer and Akkad, for he established Isin in its sovereignty over the whole country. An omen text speaks of him as a king without rivals . His line lasted for ninety-four years, the fifth and last of his descendants being Libit-Ishtar, the king of the accompanying tablet. The latter reigned only eleven years, and, as far as one can gather, it was during his reign that there was a great movement southward of an Amorite horde, Who settled, in Babylon, and began to make it a powerful city. Babylon, however, remained subject to Isin. In the time of Libit-Ishtar, or on his death, Ur appears to have thrown off the yoke of Isin, and, combined with Larsa, formed a separate kingdom. At this time Isin must have tem- porarily ceased to be capital of the country. Ur-Ninib, who succeeded Libit-Ishtar, does not appear to have been related to the latter, but whether an usurper or not we do not know. He reigned twenty-eight years and seems to have won back the sovereignty of Isin. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 Ten kings reigned in Isin after Ur-Ninib, and covered a period of a hundred years: but conditions in the city must have been occasionally very unsettled, for several of them are credited with very short periods on the thrones, and few of them seem to have had any relationship to their predecessors. One king nominated his gardener as his successor, and though his accession was vigorously disputed, when he did seize the throne his reign lasted for twenty-four years. In the reign of Sin-Magir, the penultimate king of the dynasty. Babylon is mentioned as still subject to Isin, but Ur seems to have again become independent, and a more or less independent dynasty of Larsa had been in existence for an indefinite period. The last king, Danick-Ilisha reigned twenty-three years, and it was during his reign that troubles in Sumer and Akkad came to a head. The power of Isin was waning. and both Babylon, and the Elamites were becoming more aggressive. Isin was captured by Sin-Muballit, the king of Babylon, in his seventeenth year, and though Damik- Ilishu still remained on the throne, it was only as a vassal of Babylon. At the same time Kudur-mabug, the king of Elam, overran the south country of Sumer and founded the Ela- mite dynasty of Larsa, putting his sons successively on the throne. Finally Isin was captured and sacked by Rim-sin, the king of Larsa, and the Isin Dynasty came to an end. This was probably during the reign of Hammurabi, the son of Sin-muballit. Two antagonists were left to fight for the sup- remacy in Sumer and Akkad-Hammurabi, the Amorite king of Babylon, and Rim-Sin, the Elamite king of Larsa. The issue was finally decided in favour of Hammurabi, and Babylon obtained the sovereignty of the land for the first time in history. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The influence of Isin, however, still continuedg for it had established the religious sanctity of the Sumerian tongue upon the somewhat rude Amorites, so that Sum- erian continued to be the priestly language for many cen- turies to come. It is this fact that makes excavation at Tel Bahri such an important matter, for there must be many priceless documents of extreme religious and his- torical importance buried under the mound. Isin was the last repository of Sumerian lore. ' -11. Ppfrf- Zim HN if Xl?- A S l I V 'Q 9 'Q,'E1I ' X It Neg xi. Ui 'Y X A I ,..... ..ffw.ii?i A'!!

A STRIKING FIGURE An imposing figure emerges from the lofty red brick building. He pauses for a moment on the doorstep to light a cigarette with hands that appear strong and steady. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Amidst a cloud of smoke he flicks away the match with a certain off-handedness one cannot help but notice. Upon closer inspection we find him to be a well-built fellow, dressed in a pin-striped black suit, which brings out, even to a further extent, the lines of his well-moulded body. A neatly styled, gray felt hat is pulled over his bespectacled eyes which have a certain look of hardness about them. An easy smile plays on his lips. Raising himself up to his full stature he walks majestically around the corner of the building and narrowly avoids bumping into another, some- what shorter man. He evidently knows the fellow for they stop to converse in low tones. The accent of the first man attracts our attention and although we imme- diately place it as foreign, it is an accent we have never heard before and we are somewhat baffled by it. This is forgotten, however, as the black suited man moves on. Up- on rounding another corner, he stops before a car, the latest thing in automobile manufacture. It is a low, sleek machine, styled in a light gray that shines brilliantly in the afternoon sun. With white-walled tires and perfect modelling, the car fits in with the precise and neat appear- ance of its owner who is standing before it. Looking about him with a self-possessed air, he opens the driver's door and hops lightly behind the wheel. The door shuts with but a slight click and before we are aware of the fact, the machine has pulled silently and effortlessly away from the curb. Gathering momentum as the well treaded tires bite into the gravel of the road, the sleek auto leaps ahead like some lithe jungle cat, eager on its prey. Down a lane bordered by tall elms and giant oaks it proceeds and as it passes, every one turns to look, and Major Batt Waves a black sleeved arm to the boys on the Middleside field. -14 oh 9 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 E2lIjIlTy. g , llllli ll With the return to School for the first term the thoughts of most boys turn to the playing fields. There every afternoon for two months will be seen almost two hundred boys either rushing madly after a round ball vainly endeavouring to put either one or sometimes both of their feet through it, or doing their best to permanently maim their opponent Con the fieldl with bone crushing tackles. Even though soccer has developed into one of the main sports of the School, rugby still maintains its place as the major sport of the season. One of the principal reasons for this is that the schedule of the first football team con- tains three games which invariably wind up the season. These games are against other traditional rivals: Bishop Ridley College, St. Andrew's College and Upper Canada Col- lege who with T.C.S. form the Little Big Four. The Little Big Four League besides enabling the members of the teams to make new acquaintances from other schools, pro- vides the best Senior Secondary School football in the province. Bishop Ridley College who have become our foremost rivals have maintained a decided supremacy in carrying off Little Big Four titles. This may or may not be due to 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD their practice of playing only twelve men in each game, and as long as Dr. Griffiths coaches B.R.C., arguments about this point will continue without ever reaching a satisfactory conclusion. But there can be no doubt about the fact that Ridley is always regarded as the team to beat which is a very great compliment to them. St. Andrew's football teams blow hot and coldg one year they will have a big fast team which will carry off the title but the next year they will fail miserably. Upper Canada have lately had teams below their usual standard but this year they are said to have a good squad. U.C.C. can always be counted on to provide stiff competi- tion for any team. We now arrive at the team which is closest to the hearts of most people who will read this article. In foot- ball as in most other sports T.C.S. is regarded as the dark horse . No doubt our location, way out in the wilderness has something to do with this but mostly it is because Trinity has never failed to field a fighting team. The Little Big Four season opens on October 19 with T.C.S. at home to U.C.C., while B.R.C. plays host to S.A.C. Every person who has gone to see a Little Big Four foot- ball game has gone to see the hard fast type of football which has been produced by the spirited rivalry between these teams. There is no reason why this year should be an exception in the brand of football displayed and we look forward to seeing more spectators, particularly Old Boys of the School, cheering the team on to victory. -A.B.C.W.

In the first half, play was even with numerous fumbles by both teams. A Trinity drive in the Peter- borough zone was thwarted when the line let up and a kick was blocked. T.C.S. made up for this, combining Law- son's powerful bucks with Brewer's speed in skirting the ends. An attempted placement by Rogers was blocked, however, and Peterborough marched down the field to their opponents' ten yard line. They went over for a touch- down which was called back. Peterborough kicked on third down and the ball rolled to the deadline for a single point. At half time Peterborough led 1-0. The second half opened with French intercepting a pass to commence a drive which ended in a Trinity touch- down, Bruce going over on a buck. Brewer converted to send T.C.S. in the lead 6-1. Peterborough retaliated quick- ly, intercepting a flicker and marching down the field to the two yard line, from where Thompson went over for an unconverted touchdown. The score at three-quarter time was tied 6-6. Peterborough took the lead in the fourth quarter when Sisson made a forty yard run and Green kicked a single. Trinity retaliated by sending Lawson through for in- numerable long gains and finally he went over for a touch- down which was again converted by Brewer. Brewer kicked a single and with a minute to go T.C.S. led 13-7 and considering the game safely tucked away, let up. The Peterborough squad came roaring back and Macllveen crashed over for a major score. This meant that every- thing depended on the conversion, which failed, and Trinity was victorious. The game was poor and a good one to get out of the team's system. Lawson was a tower of strength in the winners' backfield while Brewer gained many yards around the end. Macllveen and Sisson were the best for Peter- borough. 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Peterborough-Sisson, Richardson, Matthews, Macllveen, Thom- son, H.

T SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Newmarket, October 5: Won 14-6 T.C.S. defeated Pickering College, at Newmarket, by a score of 14-6 on October 5. The game was played in blistering heat which tended to slow up the play. T.C.S. kicked off and after a series of exchanges Pic- kering blocked a T.C.S. kick and succeeded in scoring a point. Trinity began to roll with a well directed offensive which ended in a touchdown by Taylor. The convert was blocked. The visitors were constantly hampered during the first half by needless penalties. Pickering, taking ad- vantage of T.C.S. errors, pushed to the Trinity forty yard strip, from where Avery kicked, and recovering his kick raced for a touchdown. Play was even with both teams concentrating on ground offensives. The School gradually forced Pickering back giving Curtis an opportunity to kick a single. Thus at half time the score was 6-6 which in- dicated the play. In the third quarter the T.C.S. line blocked well and opened many large holes through which Lawson made con- sistent gains. This drive and determination ended in a thirty-five yard run by Lawson for an unconverted touch- down. T.C.S. continued to drive making gains on end runs and reverse bucks. With the ball on the twenty yard line Curtis kicked a field goal giving the School a 14-6 lead. During the fourth quarter Pickering tried hard to overcome the eight point deficit but they were met by a charging line and a driving backfield. At last the home team took to the air but an alert T.C.S. defence showed no TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 openings. T.C.S. began to roll again but the final whistle ended the drive leaving the score 14-6 for Trinity. For T.C.S. Lawson's plunging, Curtis's powerful kicks, Carson's terrific drive and French's hard tackling were the features. The line showed a complete reversal of form, charging low and blocking hard. For the home team Avery and McGuire were best. T.C.S.-Lawson and French, co-captains, McIntyre, Conyers ii Hyde, Rickaby, Carson, Curtis, Payne, Jarvis, Rogers, Taylor i Hall, Alley, Tessier, Bruce, Armour, Cox, Campbell.

SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. At Toronto, October 11: Won 5-2 Led by a hard-charging line, Trinity College School de- feated University of Toronto Schools by a score of 5-2. Although U.T.S. made eleven first downs against ten for Trinity, the real difference came along the line, for only four out of the eleven times they made yards did they make them on the ground, while each of the ten times T.C.S. moved the yardsticks, it was either Bruce or Lawson carrying the ball. On the other hand U.T.S. made seven first downs on passes while Trinity didn't make one. The T.C.S. pass defence was very weak and at times it was necessary for the ends to cover possible receivers. Trinity kicked off and a nervous and frightened U.T.S. half-back dropped the ball and Hall recovered. The poor half made up for his error by intercepting a pass. In an exchange of kicks, U.T.S. had much the best of it and Bart- lett was put in position to kick a single. Lawson then plunged for two long gains and a good kick by Curtis set U.T.S. back on their ten yard line. In an exchange of kicks U.T.S. fumbled and Hyde recovered for Trinity. Law- son put the ball in scoring position and with the U.T.S. 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD team packed in the centre to stop a buck, Rogers went wide around the end and crossed the line standing up for a touchdown which was not converted. Bartlett and Bark then led a U.T.S. drive which carried the ball to the Trinity five yard line where Trinity held, and took possession. A short kick again put U.T.S. in a scoring position but the time ran out and Trinity led at half time 5-1. Q In the first minutes of the second half play centred around mid-field until Bartlett threw a long pass to Vernon for twenty-five yards, and then he kicked a single. Trinity then made three first downs in a row before losing the ball on a fumble at their opponents' fifty yard line. U.T.S. took to the air and carried the ball to the twenty yard line where the T.C.S. line held. Curtis made a long kick and U.T.S. were on their own fifty with only minutes left to play. Bartlett threw successive completed passes to Ver- non and Robertson, and with time left for two plays, U.T.S. were on the Trinity ten yard line. Two running plays were stopped and Trinity emerged victorious by a score of 5-2. U.T.S. played very well and deserved to fare better than they did. Bartlett and Bark were outstanding while Robertson tackled well. For T.C.S. Lawson played his usual fine game at bucking half while along the line Payne, Hyde, and Rickaby starred. T.C.S.-Lawson, French, Bruce, Rogers, Jarvis, McIntyre, Cox, Payne, Curtis, Rickaby, Hyde, Conyers, Tessier, Gaunt, Drynan, Campbell, Alley, Hall, Fennell, Armour.

Thanksgiving Day, October 14, 1946 Following an announcement by the Headmaster that the annual Old Boys game this year would take the shape TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 of an inter-house contest, a cloud of smoke descended up- on the Bigside field. It was observed fwhen the haze occasionally cleared away due to frequent gusts of windy that both Houses were well represented. Some order was secured by Mr. Hodgetts' whistle, and the game began as Brent kicked off. The first quarter saw Brent dominating the play, Bethune being held deep in their own territory. However, the latter broke loose in the second quarter, on an end run which showed that Mc- Murrich and Britton had not lost the knack of running the ends. Following a twenty yard pass from Huycke to Phip- pen, Bethune scored one point on an attempted placement. Bethune held this lead until half time passed, and the half ended with the ball on Brent's ten yard line after Gilbert had caught a beautiful pass from Huycke who faked a third down kick. Bethune again took the offensive in the second half, scoring a single by Huycke and a touchdown on a Brent fumble which Phippen recovered. Lambert converted giving Bethune an eight nothing lead. Brent seemed to get their second wind at this point, and Decker supported by Sinclair and Duggan led Brent in a steady drive. This ended abruptly, however, when they fumbled on the Be- thune ten yard line, and Bethune again marched the ball to the Brent twenty on a series of end runs by Britton and McMurrich. Then, with one minute to go, Huycke threw a long pass to Wheeler, taking Bethune to Brent's two yard line. Brent recovered, however, only to lose the ball as Lambert inter- cepted a pass, and ran the ball back to the five yard line. when the final whistle blew to end the game in an eight- nothing victory for Bethune. Brent's standouts in this epic struggle were Sinclair. Decker and Jones. For Bethune, ably coached by Ross LeMesurier, Beament, Britton, McMurrich and Huycke were best. 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Betlnme-Wade, Austin, Fulford, McDonald, Beament, Gilbert, Hawke, Phippen, Stewart, Lambert, McMurrich, Britton, Huycke fCapt.J, Dalton, Wheeler, Morgan, LeMesurier, Armstrong.

It all started in 1605, when certain Catholic gentlemen were very much annoyed by some anticatholic laws which were passed by Parliament. One of these gentlemen was a Yorkshireman, Guy Fawkes by name, who was chosen to carry out the scheme. The scheme was this. Guy Fawkes rented a house next to the Houses of Parliament and then dug a tunnel 74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD from his cellar into the cellar under the House of Lords. He then planted a lot of gunpowder designed to blow up the Members. This was known as the Gunpowder Plot. But it did not work because one of the conspirators, who was a traitor, wrote a letter to a friend telling him to stay away from the Houses of Parliament. This raised suspicion, as the Protestants knew that the Catholics were very bit- ter against them. As a result the cellars were carefully searched on November 4th, the night before the gunpowder was to be set off. Guy Fawkes was discovered in the act of attending to the fuses. He was arrested, tried, and executed in January, 1606. From this time forth, every year, all English children celebrate the discovery of the Plot. Huge bonfires are lit and dummies of Guy Fawkes are burnt. Fireworks are also let off. - -P. Hylton, Form IIA. l-1-l- THE FANATICAL FIGHT OF FAINTHEARTED FOTHERINGILL Gadzooks! 'od's teeth!

Symons, Form IIA. l1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 75 A BEAR HUNT King Cole had visited the ranch again last night. He had killed and partly eaten a stallion and had gone back up into the hills to digest his meal. King Cole was a great, big, black bear. He had hurt many men in his three years of existence and had killed over forty horses. Mr. Schaffer or Shaver as he was called by the ranch hands, had sent many expeditions after him and, though wounding him once, he had always got away. Shaver has set traps for him, but these had always been eluded, he had poisoned the dead carcasses, but to no avail. The old bear had completely ignored them. After today's find, Shaver decided to go out after him immediately. The bear had gorged himself and was walk- ing slowly, as his tracks showed. Within an hour, the party of four men on horseback, two bloodhounds, and five strong mastiffs set out. The bloodhounds picked up the trail immediately as it Was still fresh and they progressed quickly. After about an hour the dogs became more and more excited and start- ed to run. Suddenly, from the bushes about a hundred yards ahead of us, there came a loud roar and King Cole himself came out to meet us, blinking his eyes in the sun. The excited dogs set upon him immediately before a shot could be fired. The men circled round and round the melee looking for a chance to fire, but not daring to for fear of hitting a dog. Finally Tex , a young ranch hand, rushed into the brawl and fired four shots into the bear's head. Late that afternoon the triiunphant party bore the huge body of the dead bear back to the ranch. -A. Adamson, Form IIA. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD TO THE GARDEN QOF HEAVEN Out on the rolling waters, Of a dark, unknown sea, There is a ship sails on, sails on, To a land of eternity. To a land of peace, this vessel sails, A paradise land to be sure, Where Love dwells on for evermore And all men's hearts are pure. The way to this land is hard and rough, And requires brave hearts to win it, But the Garden of Heaven, for that's what it is, Is glorious once one is within it. And some night, when yo4u're half-asleep, You may behold this sight In your dreamy vision, which slumber gives, As you drift to sleep in the night. Of the ship which sails through storm and gale, Ceasing nor stopping never, To a land of Love, and Peace, and Rest, Where one lives on for ever. -R. J. Anderson, Form IB. THE CHTPMUNK The chipmunk was sitting on top of the wood-pile. His every nerve was tense as he stared at a small pile of cherry pits lying on the ground about three feet away from me. Suddenly, he jumped down a crevice in the wood-pile and re-appeared a little closer to the pits. His tail was sticking up like a little flag-pole and his ears were cockily perked as he sat down and stared about him. Finally, after an TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 intolerable wait. while the flies buzzed around my head and bothered me, he got up enough courage to run up, grab a pit or two, and dash back to cover. A little later, he re-appeared on the wood-pile eating busily. After he had finished, he ran up to within a yard of the pits, but paused, as I was now within a foot of them. Apparently he decided that, as nothing had happened to him before, nothing would happen now. So he hopped up, sat down, and began to eat. When he had gathered all the loot he could carry, he ran back to his beloved wood-pile to hide it. The next time he returned, he seemed to have lost all fear of me and ate pits right out of my hand. -G. M. Levey, Form HA. ...1 -..1i L- A GREMLIN You don't know when it's coming, You don't know when it's there, It's just a little gremlin That's always in your hair. It fools around with aeroplanes, It never seems to care If you plummet down in the desert Without any water to spare. It's just a little gremlin, A pesky little gremlin, A nasty little gremlin, That's always in your hair. One day as I was writing Some work that must be done, Along came this little gremlin To muss up all my fun. It spilled ink on my notebook Which I kept neat and trim, T8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD I was scolded by the master, And so I said to him, Oh please no quarters this time, Please do not look so grim. It's just a little gremlin, , A pesky little gremlin, A nasty little gremlin That's always in my hair. -F. Weicker, Form III. 1i..l ATHLETICS Rugby Captain-E. M. Hoffmann. Vice-Captain--P. A. C. Ketchum We have had to start rebuilding the rugby squad from the ground up this year. Only one Old Colour remained from last year's team and we had no trained quarter back available. In spite of these handicaps, everybody has work- ed with a will and our first game against Lakefield showed that this year's team promises to be well up to standard. The spirit of the team is good and we can look forward to them giving a good account of themselves. Games have been arranged with Lakefield, St. Andrew's, Upper Canada, and Ridley. .i-.1.......-L.... . SCHOOL vs. LAKEFIELD At Lakefield, October 10 The School opened up slowly against the Grove with the result that Lakefield dominated the play during the Iirst quarter of the game scoring two rouges and an un- converted touchdown. The play was very evenly matched during the second quarter with neither team scoring. The score at half-time was 7-0 in favour of the Grove. The third quarter saw T.C.S. opening up with a series of passes and end-runs which brought them an early touch- down. The rest of the quarter was scoreless. A very TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 smart sleeper play caught the School flat-footed in the early part of the last quarter and the Grove scored a touch- down which they converted. A few minutes later an inter- cepted forward brought them another touchdown which they failed to convert. The remainder of the period was en- tirely dominated by T.C.S. who scored an unconverted touchdown. The closing minutes of the game saw the School strongly on the offensive but failing to tie up the score. The line is to be congratulated on the great improvement in form shown as the game went on. The rest of the team all played well and it would be invidious to pick out the in- dividual players. Final score: Grove 18, T.C.S. 10.

We hope to have two teams and games have been arranged with Lakefield and Crescent School. VALETE Ballard, G. E. H ............................ A. H. Ballard, Esq., Niagara Falls, Ont, Cate, B.

Though that story appeared in the Off the Record section the same idea taken seriously is a very necessary and helpful one for boys at T.C.S. to acquire. With the full and busy curriculum at the School a boy will become completely lost if he does not find some balance between work and play. A boy who is able to find this sense of proportion in his life here is a smart and sensible one and he Will, nine times out of ten. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD be much more successful than the one who concentrates all his energies and time in one field. Don't think that I am advocating a planned time-table from the moment the riser rings until our lights are out at night. Far from it. A certain amount of planning in connection with one's Work is no doubt very helpful, yet if every minute of our time were pre-arranged we would become more like machines than human beings. A certain amount of free time is not only desirable but essential. It is just that a boy must keep his Wits about him and be able to pick the useful from the useless and then spend his time accordingly. The reason that this is so necessary at T.C.S. is that there is so much for a boy to do and so many facilities at his disposal that there always seem to be about three things that have to be done at the same time. And it is therefore necessary for him to choose and choose wisely so that he will spend his time as advantageously as pos- sible. There are many fields of sport tempting a boy every minute and yet he must learn to give up a certain amount of recreation to concentrate on his school-work. For no one will win in the long run if he ignores his studies and does nothing but athletics, even though he may be a star on the playing field. Yet it would be equally wrong for a boy to concentrate so much on his work that he did nothing else. One's education here goes a long way beyond the classroom block and it would be, to my mind, as grave an error to ignore athletics as it would be to ignore scholastics. In doing either you are passing up completely one whole phase of your education. Thus it is necessary for a boy to strike this happy medium in order that his life here will do him the utmost good. There can be no set standard for anyoneg each person is different and must find this balance himself. One boy will need to concentrate a bit more on his work while another's studies will come more easily and he will be able to play more sports. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 This same idea should be carried even further for there is less danger of boys emphasizing the organized side of school life-sports and studies-than there is of them using their free time foolishly and without thought of benefiting themselves or the School. I think only the extremist will advocate that boys spend, or should spend, their time do- ing, to all intents and purposes, nothing. By this I mean listening to the radio, loafing, having bull sessionsl' and the countless other ways which boys find to while away the time. This they certainly do and it is a perfectly natural and enjoyable way to spend the time. And, to a certain extent, it is useful for it provides complete relaxa- tion. It is silly to shut your eyes to this side of the school life as it certainly exists. However, like all other phases of our daily life here, it can be overdone. There are many extra-curricular activities about the School which are good for the boy engaged in them. These should be inter- mingled with the rest of our free time so that we are not. as it were, part of the School only when we are in the classroom or on the playing field. Thus another happy medium must be found. This time we must balance our spare time so as to best benefit the School and, at the same time, ourselves. Again it would be wrong to go to either extreme. This idea of getting a bit of everything into our life may suggest the ancient saying, Jack of all trades, master of none , and some may say that by taking a middle road We become efficient in no one branch. This may be true in later life but it seems to me that boys such as we would get irretrievably lost in a deep rut if we started from school following one and only one path. And also a boy would not get the full value of the many and varied facilities of T.C.S. were he to concentrate on only one thing. If we can learn to find a proper balance in our lives We have gone a long way. In college and even more so after college, we must have a sense of values which, if pro- perly adjusted, will be of immeasurable help to us all our 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD lives. College will be even harder than school as there is no supervision over us and we must again know when to start and when to stop. There will be no set time for anything as there is in school and we will be completely on our own. If we remain level-headed and if we know when we can do something and when we can't, we will, I am sure, be more qualified to face the problems that con- front us and what is more we will be far happier. -J.B.F. i111 time TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 THE WAR MEMORIAL CHAPEL FUND The campaign for this fund is to take place early in January, already we have a good beginning, and there is every reason to expect that the objective set by the com- mittee as being vitally necessary for the completion of our plans, some two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, will be reached. It is a noble purpose and one which could not be closer to the hearts of all T.C.S. people. The chapel will be a memorial to our gallant sons who in three wars went from us and died in alien lands so that the tide of hatred and tyranny should not engulf us. They were, nearly all of them, young lads, with their paths of life winding before them in this most pleasant land. But they volunteered with high spirits, and left their homes, their own dear ones, their school, their careers, their much loved country retreats to plunge them- selves into the maelstrom of destruction and death which finally engulfed them. No words can do full justice to their courage or to the nobility of their self-sacrificeg no deeds can be truly worthy of them: Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends , Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only. Fourteen hundred T.C.S. boys have faced the foe with valiant hearts, one hundred and eighty-six have not re- turned to us. The chapel will be a memorial to them, a holy place in which we can be very near to them in spirit, and where inspiration for our lives will be given to us. It is a high privilege to raise such a memorial, it will bind together the past, the present, and the future in one communion of souls, and knit our hearts in brotherhood everlasting. We can think of no more acceptable way of rendering thanks to God for giving us such noble sons, and for 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD a new world worthy of the hopes of those who have died sparing many who may now use their talents in building for us and of all mankind. O Father of Lights, unvarying and true, Let us build the Palace of Life anew Let us build for the years we shall not see Let us build it for ever in splendour new. The plans for the chapel have been drawn by Mr. A. S. Mathers of the firm of Mathers and Haldenby, To- ronto. The building committee have given close considera- tion to every detail, and they believe the proposed build- ing will fulfil all our aspirations in its consecrated purpose and will be Lmique among school chapels in this country. Before construction begins, the Governing Body has decided it must have in reserve a sum sufficient for the up- keep of the chapel. A If every Old Boy and friend of the School will realize the noble nature of this undertaking, and give accordingly, there will be no question of the success of the appeal. THE PLANNING COMMITTEE R.

Bagley spoke in Chapel. His text which was taken from St. Mat- thew was Watch therefore and pray, for ye know not the hour of the coming of the Lord , and his main theme was that Christianity is not a rigid code of laws but rather a way of life. He pointed out that it is the unconscious good deeds that are worth most. As an example of this, he took the story of Paul and Silas singing in jail and thus making the other prisoners happy. In closing he said that if We go around looking for good deeds to perform We soon acquire a self-righteous attitudeg if, however, we live a full life trying to do what we know to be right, then we can safely leave the judgment of our works to God. 1-.-1...-11.-1 Address of Mr. J. D. Ketchum We were greatly honoured to have Mr. J. D. Ketchum U07-'10J, professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, speak to us at Matins, Sunday, October 27. This TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q was a special pleasure as Mr. Ketchum is a brother of the Headmaster, as well as an Old Boy and one-time master here. His subject was courage, and he commenced by telling us of the need for real courage in the world to-day, not the kind inspired by rage. but true, calm courage. As an example of this, he cited those Americans on Bataan in 1942, who knew they were doomed, yet kept on fighting to the bitter end, mainly because they were a part of a great nation. Mr. Ketchum pointed out that courage stems from a group, and that it is only by being part of a group that we can obtain this courage. Here at T.C.S. we have a chance to become one of such a group. The enviable war record enjoyed by the Old Boys of this School and of others like it proves that. In conclusion, he told us to try and forget ourselves, and let ourselves become a part of whatever group we find ourselves in, whether it is something relatively small like the School, or overwhelmingly large like the world where we will be when we leave School. In this way we will all find the courage which we need to carry us through the trials and tribulations of our lives in this difficult era. On the tenth of November, the Sunday before Remem- brance Day, Mr. Bagley preached in Chapel and took his text from Proverbs, 12 :27, The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hiuitingf' The Chaplain went on to apply the text to the modern world. He showed the School all the benefits that have been given to us and said that we have not made full use of the possibilities that have been set before us. We don't appreciate all of the freedoms that other men have won for us through their own sacrifices. The gains that were made by victory in the first World War were spoiled through selfishness and greed, and he 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD said that these same faults must not be allowed to appear in the world to-day. Men gave their lives for a cause that they believed in and their lives must not have been sacri- ficed in vain. We must cultivate our talents to prevent a depression similar to the one that followed the '14-'18 War, and we must also stop a religious and moral slump which has al- ready started to appear. The Chaplain closed by saying that the war will not be completely won until these problems are overcome, and that we can only surmount them through continual faith in Jesus Christ. .ll.1 On Sunday, November 17, the Reverend E. R. Bagley spoke in Chapel. His sermon was based on the differences between Justification by words and Justification by faith . He pointed out that it was Luther who, dismayed by the realization of his failures, had put forth the latter doctrine. At that time, however, this was a very worthy reform to propose because the alternate doctrine was be- ing misused by the Roman church to make money for un- worthy causes. Mr. Bagley then went on to say that the two doctrines could not really be separated since true faith compels one to do good works. We do not sing to make ourselves happy but because we are happy, and good works are equally automatic if we pray for and receive the Grace of God. It was with much pleasure that we welcomed thue Reverend Archdeacon Robertson of Peterborough back to the School on Sunday, November 24. He chose for the text of his sermon, the 24th-29th verses of the seventh chapter of St. Matthew's gospel, which is the parable of the man who built his house upon a rock and it survived the great rains. while the man who built his house on the sands fell and great was its fall. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 He used Defoe's famous novel, Robinson Crusoe, as an illustration of this. For first he looked for shelter, then for food and finally for a permanent rock to serve as the foundation of his dwelling. We must apply this parable to our lives, the rock we must build upon is our Lord, Jesus Christ, and the food must be the continual and stead- fast devotion to Christianity and its principles. Remembrance Day Remembrance Day, November 11, was observed by the whole School when a wreath was laid at the foot of the Memorial Cross, followed by the two minutes' silence. 12 TRINITY OOLLEGE scHooL REOORD SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS After the half-term break has passed, everyone starts to try to find something to look forward to. With many boys, and especially as they find the days slipping by, it is the Christmas holidays. There are some who look upon this time only as a break between classes, but I think that most of us long for them because of what they bring. All tbis starts when the tension of exams is over and the Christmas dinner is held. It is then that the atmosphere begins to sink in, and even after many years at the School I find I still get a thrill on arriving home to find every- thing buzzing with preparation. Christmas comes, with bright colours and shiny tinsel scattered about the carpet near the treeg Christmas goes, but not regretfully, leaving torn wrappings and the smell of pine needles in the living room.

Taylor, Form VIA 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD DINNER IN HONOUR OF THE ARCHBISI-IOP Trinity College School gave a dinner to the Most Reverend Derwyn T. Owen, Archbishop of Toronto and Primate of all Canada, and Mrs. Owen on the evening of November 4, 1946. It was a belated birthday party as the Primate celebrated his 70th birthday on the 29th of July and Mrs Owen's birthday was on the 10th of June. There were 162 guests, 32 of them being at the head table. They consisted of the clergy from the towns and villages of this Archdeaconry, their wardens, with their wives. As the Headmaster had had to undergo an operation, he asked Mr. Jellett to go to Port Hope and preside. The School Grace in Latin was said by the Chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Bagley. Mr. Jellett made the following remarks in introducing Archdeacon Robertson of Peterborough, who was to speak on the life and works of the Primate. In the much-to-be-regretted absence of the Headmaster I make you welcome at Trinity College School to join with us in doing honour to the School's Visitor-the Most Reverend Derwyn Trevor Owen, Archbishop of Toronto and Primate of all Canada, and his wife, in the form of an Unbirthday Party on the line suggested by Lewis Carroll, who, you will remember, wrote of an Unbirthday Present as a present given to anyone on a day other than his birth- day. Actually the Primate's 70th birthday occurred on the 29th of July last but this is the first opportunity We could make to celebrate it. As we thus reach back to the 29th of July we can go further to the 10th of June and include his wife as that was her birthday, but-as anyone can tell by looking at her-not her 70th! It is fitting that we should couple them in this way as I know of no two persons more joined together in their married life, their family life, and their life of service to the Church, than our two guests of this evening. 2114 avg., 7 s. f1if 3 ex.

I V P i N 1 X...n..a TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Philip Ketchum, our Headmaster, would be presiding tonight if an unkind fate had not decreed otherwise by subjecting him to a painful trouble culminating in the necessity for an operation which called for the removal of a disc from his spinal column. He is at the Toronto General Hospital and you will be relieved to learn that he is making a satisfactory recovery. He has asked me to say how deeply sorry he is to be absent. He had been looking forward to this party ever since last spring and had wanted very much to meet all the clergy and wardens, and their Wives, of the Archdeaconry. He hopes another opportunity to do so will occur. T.C.S. is a church school and it is a privilege to be in a position to entertain the pillars of the church in this neighbourhood. I was called in as a senior member of the Governing Body of the School, and also because my sister, with whom I Was a great chum in our childhood, is included in the honours, and Derwyn Owen is my oldest and by-me-most- admired friend. I have known him for nearly fifty years and since his days at Trinity University before it was a college in affiliation with the University of Toronto. My connection with Trinity College School is unique. We have now Old Boys in the thousands and many Old Boys have had sons at the School. So have I, but I alone have also had a mother at the School as she was the matron here from 1892 to 1897 and her days here were never out of her memory. Being so intensely T.C.S.ified lEnglish master present, please note the wordj, I am proud indeed to represent the School on this memorable and delightful occasion. Rather than expressing my own thoughts about our special guests I am fortunate in being able to tell you something of what Philip Ketchum would have said had he stood in my shoes, as in spite of pain and discomfort he has managed to scribble in pencil some of the things that- 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD in anticipation of this evening--have occupied his mind: I and here he speaks! 'I would have explained in outline why the School felt it an exceptional privilege to do honour to the Primate and Mrs. Owen. Their lifelong work for the Church we all know, their noble courage and high faith we have seen again and again and especially during these past few years and it has inspired us. Their unfailing sympathy and kindness, their devotion to their people has been universal- ly experienced and recognized over the wide field of their endeavours. 'Since he became Primate, the Archbishop has been one of the busiest men, yet he has always had time to talk to anyone about matters in which he might be of help. His unswerving devotion and simple, saintly belief have made us feel so often that truly he walks with God. He has on all possible occasions brought home to us his deep sense of the personal responsibility that rests on all of us to live as Christ would have us live and to realize that we are the Church-the member of Christ's body. 'Few Canadians have achieved such ecclesiastical eminence. Recognized throughout the country as an out- standing leader in religious life, he is Widely known and admired both in England and in the United States. Like another great T.C.S. churchman, Bishop Brent, he has worked for the close union of all Protestant denominations. His broadness has embraced all of his flock in one united family so that the Canadian Church today is stronger than ever before. He is a lovable man, modest and unassuming, and he makes everyone feel at ease. In short he has all the characteristics of true greatness. Never can we be unmindful of all this great man, this man of God, has done for us. In thinking as we do of His Grace and his accom- plishments we link with him in every way that leader among our churchwomen, his wife.' CHere end the words of Mr. Ketchuml. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 While the Venerable Archdeacon Robertson will speak to you shortly of the life and work of the Primate, I shall just mention the following four conspicuous examples of the great things which he has done for the Church in Canada which have come to my mind:- Attendance and representation of the Canadian Church at Lambeth Conferences. His trip to England in 1943 to visit the Canadian Forces. His splendid nationwide broadcast on V.E. Day. The recent successful Anglican Advance Appeal. I am sure we all wish Archbishop and Mrs. Owen many happy returns of the day. The Venerable Archdeacon Robertson then spoke most feelingly of the Primate's life work. The Archbishop, in expressing his thanks to the Head- master for planning the Dinner, to Mr. R. P. Jellett for his kindness in coming from Montreal to preside when Mr. Ketchum unfortunately fell ill, went on to thank those who had come, in many cases from long distances to share with him in the happiness of the occasion. He outlined some of the incidents of his life, making reference to the debt he owed to his father and mother, to his wife and children. He drew little word pictures of some of the events of his life on the prairies, in England, and Ontario. Summing up, he said that there were three lessons which, in his opinion, came out of the changes and chances of his life. 1. There is a destiny which shapes our ends. 2. The things which seem to be against us turn out to be great helps upon the journey. 3. And that here in this life We have no abiding city, but that the things that are not seen, seem eternal. All those present were deeply touched by his remarks. The Rev. Mr. MacLean in a few words expressed thanks for what the Primate had said and referred par- ticularly to his wartime visit to England. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At the end of the dinner, the lights, except the candles on the head table, were put out and a great birthday cake with seventy little candles alight was brought in and pre- sented to the Primate and Mrs. Owen. Mrs. Ketchum then presented the gifts to the two chief guests making a happy little speech, and both of them said a thank-you for them. The dinner ended at 9.50 p.m. when the guests came up and shook hands with the Primate before leaving for their homes. In bringing the meeting to a close Mr. Jellett stated that a great war memorial chapel and tower were to be erected at the School in memory of those Old Boys whose lives had been lost and in thankfulness for the safe return of those who were spared, and hoped that all the guests would have an opportunity of seeing this memorial when it was completed and in use. -- -ii.1l1.,. MAJOR-GENERAL SIR WILLIAM THROSBY BRIDGES, K.C.B., C.M.G. The following account of a famous T.C.S. Old Boy is a summary of an article in the Royal Military College Re- view for 1946. The author of the original was the late Col. A. H. Van Straubenzee C71-'76l. General Bridges was born in the year 1861 in Glasgow where his father was serving in the Royal Navy. His education probably commenced at a small day school in Ryde, on Lady Day, 1871, he entered the Royal Navy School at New Cross, London. In 1872, at mid-summer. he came with his parents to Montreal and later entered Trinity College School at Port Hope, Ontario, where he was a student from 1873-1876. In 1877 the young Bridges passed into the Military College at Kingston and obtained his M.Q. certificate in 1879. He was then over six foot tall, of slight build, with long legs and a slight stoop from the shoulders, he did not TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 play games, nor was he prominent in his studies but spent much of his spare time reading in the smoke room. After leaving the College he rejoined his parents, who had re- turned to Australia and soon secured employment in the Department of Roads and Bridges in Sydney, being made an Inspector at Murrionundi and Narrabri. In 1882 he received an appointment as Lieutenant in the New South Wales permanent Militia Artillery, at the age of 24, from which time his active military career may be said to have really commenced. He was placed in charge of the Middle Head Forts at Sydney. The place was very isolated, and did not offer much in the way of work, so that his prospects did not look very promising. He de- voted his time to reading, and spent many hours sailing in the company of the officer in command of the South Head Forts. The authorities, however, decided wisely to estab- lish a School of Gunnery at Middle Head. So in 1891 he attended courses of instruction at Woolwich and Shoe- buryness-also a Firemaster's Course, and two years later he was promoted to Major and made Chief Instructor which appointment he held for nine years, until March, 1902. During this time, however, occurred the South African War, and in 1899 Bridges left Sydney on the transport Aberdeen and arrived at Cape Town on the 6th December, where he was attached to the R.A. under Colonel Davidson, R.H.A., who was C.R.A. on General French's staff. He was present at the operations in Cape Colony, South of Orange River, including actions at Colesbergg in the Relief of Kimberley, in Orange Free State, February to May, in- cluding Paardeberg, Polar Grove, Dreifontein and Karee Siding. He took two horses as chargers with him. One was stolen at Dekiels Farm, the other had to be shot at Kimberley. He was struck down with enteric fever and invalided to England and returned via Cape Town to Sydney which he reached on 21 September, 1900. He re- ceived the Queen's Medal with three clasps. QQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In 1902 Bridges was promoted to the rank of Lieu- tenant-Colonel and made A.Q.M.G., Headquarters Staff. Two years later he was acting D.A.G. and Chief Intelligence Officer working in connection with the Defence Scheme of Australia, and in 1905 he was Chief of Intelligence on the newly constituted Board of Military Administration which later in 1909 and 1910 necessitated his attending meetings at the Imperial General Staff in London. In 1905 he came into touch with Colonel George Kirk- patrick f'76-'79J,- flater General Sir G. M. Kirkpatrickl who visited Australia for the London War Office whilst Bridges was on duty in England. The Australian Govern- ment invited Lord Kitchener, then in India, to visit and report on its military affairs, especially the subject of uni- versal military training. This Lord Kitchener did and took with him Kirkpatrick who was then serving on his staff in India. His first advice was to establish a military college like the Canadian one at Kingston, and he sug- gested that it would be advisable to put an Australian officer in command of it, suggesting Bridges, this advice was accepted and Bridges was recalled to Sydney, much against his personal wishes. In this interval Kirkpatrick had returned to India but was shortly afterwards appointed Inspector General of the Australian Forces on 8 May. 1910. Strangely enough, without knowing it Kirkpatrick from India, and Bridges from London, found themselves at Colombo on the same ship going to Sydney, so were able to discuss military mat- ters together. Both had been educated at T.C.S. and at Kingston, Bridges being the senior in age by about five years. On his appointment as Commandant R.M. College, 30 May, 1910, Bridges received the rank of Brigadier General, and threw himself whole-heartedly into the heavy task that lay ahead of him, the site to be chosen, with the many buildings required, the students to be admitted, their en- trance examination, the staff required, a tour of existing TRINITY COLLEGE sCHOOL RECORD 21 colleges in England and abroad. All these matters called for the most careful consideration. When Bridges left Duntroon only the work of the cadets in their first year had been settled so Colonel Gwynn had much to do in considering details of a second year's work, as well as general supervision of all the buildings now in course of erection. In these early years a very efficient course of instruction was established, including an excellent high standard of morale. The August number 1915 R.M. College Journal Duntroon thus speaks of Bridges: Duntroon is his Masterpiece, less than five years ago there was but a large station homestead, sur- rounded by wide pastures, now a great group of buildings, built with judgment and foresight to cope with the needs of a great military academy, stands as a monument to his energy and tenacity of purpose. Being of a dogged deter- mination, and unselfish in devotion to duty, he achieved. in the short space of four years, what may be regarded as the greatest educational feat yet accomplished in Australia. As a soldier he was supremely an organizer. One does not hesitate to compare him to Lord Kitchener in this. To say such a comparison is wrong is merely to say that Sir William Bridges never had the opportunities that fell to the great Englishman. A man must be reckoned great as he masters and carries out what is set before him. provided of course, that the work asked for is one demand- ing great ability. He had just those qualities which mark out Lord Kitchener. He was equally a master of outline, and a master of detail. He could generalize and discriminate -he could set his fingers surely on the mainspring of any scheme, Whether to construct or destroy. He had even Kitchener's faults, his hardness, his impatience at ordinary human Weakness, his contempt for what others might say. His most striking quality was a high sense of duty which was with him almost a religion. We cherish highly indeed his association with Dunt- roon. It is much to say that four of the best years of our 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD greatest soldier's life was spent in organizing this Col- lege. So much for the inception of Bridges' Magnum Opus . What of the man himself? In many respects he was a strange character with many contradictory qualities, which gave him many good friends, but perhaps more bitter enemies, he had outstanding physical courage but he had a nervous streak, which showed itself in a tendency to hypochondriasis and in a shyness which made him avoid even watching training or entering a class-room. All the same he kept in very close touch with all that was going on and there was no doubt of the influence he exercised or of his remarkable ability and wide range of knowledge. He had some curious tastes and idiosyncrasies. When on leave he took every opportunity of watching a friend, a distin- guished surgeon, performing operations. He broke the heart of his clerks by making small and quite unnecessary alterations in everything he wrote. The least important letter had often to be typed half a dozen times. Altogether I should judge that he was a strange amalgam of force of character, great ability, which he fully realized he possessed, yet withal a victim of a marked inferiority complex against which he waged continuous mental struggle. The First Great War found Bridges inspecting troops in Queensland but he returned to Melbourne on the 5th August Where he was informed that the Dominion had offered to raise a force of 20,000 men, and had asked the London War Office whether the force would be organized as a Division or otherwise. The reply sent by the War Office suggested that the force might be two Infantry Brigades, one light horse brigade, and one field artillery brigade, these would aggregate about 12,000 men. To Bridges and his staff it was quite clear that any force would be dismembered and incorporated with units from other parts of the Empire, in such a way that its natural character would be lost. Bridges was determined that TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 Australia should send one complete Division, and drafted for the Minister of Defence a reply somewhat as follows: Expected fully 20,000 men to go and have commenced the organisation of an Infantry Division, three Brigades of Artillery as well as Light Horse Brigade-do you con- cur or do you still wish your proposal adopted? Anticipate embarking in four to six weeks. An early answer is re- quested. Next day the War Office gladly availed itself of the offer. The stand thus taken by the far-sighted Bridges settled the future character of a national Australian Force. Bridges had no idea at this time of being appointed to com- mand it, but anticipated, he, as a senior officer at home, would be left to organize and improve Australia's home de- fences. The steps taken by Bridges to organize the Division were as follows: He selected the Officers who would be the Brigadiers before the active recruiting commenced and attached them to the Commandants of Districts in their respective States, he left the choice of battalion Com- manders to the Brigadiers who in turn selected the Majors, Captains and Subaltern Officers who could serve under them. The training of the younger officers was compara- tively an easy matter, as the young bushman learns at an early age to be very self reliant-the provision and cook- ing of his meals, forage for horses and cattle-to stick on horseback, and finding his Way across country, as Well as beating down and destroying bush fires. The graduates of the first year course at Duntroon were commissioned in the first contingent, and those of the second year courses were taken as officers in the second contingent of the A.I.F. The Engineers were raised from the men who were tradesmen and had volunteered-from which Bridges form- ed three field companies-one for each of the three infan- try brigades. Eventually it was ascertained the first division con- tained 8595 men. 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Some 6098 had never served before-the ages were from 19 to 38. Ninety percent were not married. The Government declined the suggestion made by Bridges to give the command to Sir E. Hutton and gave it to Bridges himself who organized all the details and gave the Force its name. The following notes followed closely the description given in the Australian paper Reveil1e : Landing on Anzac shore at 7.20 a.m., 25th April, Bridges hurried along the beach to inform himself of the position which had arisen in consequence of the force having been put ashore a mile north of the intended land- ing place. Taking White, his Chief Staff Officer, with him and keeping close to the high bank of the beach, in order to avoid the shells from Gaba Tepe, which from time to time burst Over the Cove, Bridges climbed the neck of Little Sri- Buran fQueensland Pointl into Shrapnel Gully-wounded men from the second ridge were already streaming past on the way to the beach. Some odd portions of the 2nd Bri- gade were in the valley and heavy rifle and machine gun fire were still coming from the high ground Baby 700, up- on the flat near its mouth-to some stragglers he spoke sharply and bade them remember they were Australians. Bridges then moved southwards along the valley and up McCay's Hill. When darkness fell that night the troops, after being driven off the main ridge, were in a precarious position completely hemmed in by a formidable Turkish Force, in a country which would have proved difficult even in peace manoeuvres-so that all ranks anticipated a powerful Turkish counter-attack during the night or at daybreak. The question now arose whether the troops should not be withdrawn. Bridges, therefore, signalled about 10 p.m. to General Birdwood on H.M.S. Queen Elizabeth, General Godley and I both consider that you should come ashore at once . This Birdwood did, and was so im- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q5 pressed himself by the misgivings of all the principal officers that he Wrote a note at once to Sir Ian Hamilton on board H.M.S. Queen Elizabeth. Sir Ian appreciated rightly that the Navy could do nothing before dawn. so instructed Birdwood to make a supreme effort to hold on. You have got through the difficult business, now you have only to dig, dig, dig, until you are safe. And so the Anzac Corps continued to hang on, the men in the front line completely unaware that even evacuation had been thought of. Next day Bridges made his way to the summit of Mc- Cay's Hill on his southern flank, and after seeing the posi- tion there, he pointed out to Lt.-Col. McNicholl, 6th Bat- talion, the alignment he wished the troops to occupy in that area. Afterwards he moved on and slipped down in- to the shallow trench. When he left it he kept low for about ten yards and then stood up straight again. It was after this, on his way back to the beach, that the 4th Bat- talion through a tragic misunderstanding of Bridges' in- structions advanced up No Man's Land and was cut to pieces-and so the days were passed, the troops impatient at delays. Bridges sought positions for his guns in posi- tions often only fit for light mountain guns. But he en- couraged his artillery to get their 25 pounders up into these difficult places-the sappers being ordered to make tracks up to these newly chosen sites. There was not a section of the line he omitted to visit and he gave instruc- tions to straighten the line in the 700 plateau. By his conspicuous bravery since the landing Bridges won the admiration of all his men. On the morning of the 15th May he visited Col. Chauvel, commanding First Light Horse Brigade, at the head of Monash Valley in General Godley's sector. Some hours earlier the 2nd Light Horse Regiment had made a gallant but unsuccessful attack from Queen's Post, and the Turkish sniping down the valley, in spite of many sandbags and other traverses, was causing numerous casualties. 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD As Bridges went up the road with Col. White and Lieut. Casey, A.D.C., they met Major Glasgow, lst Light Horse, with some of his men, on their way down, who warned them to be careful of the next corner, saying, I have lost five men there to-day. Bridges usually exposed himself and was inclined to laugh at those of his staff who took cover, but on this day Bridges followed the advice given. The party ran three or four times between traverses until they reached the one below Steeles Post. Behind this was the dressing station of Captain Thomson of the 1st Battalion. After talking a few minutes with Thomson who warned him to be careful Bridges went off by himself, soon disappearing in the scrub round a traverse, and his Staff were preparing to follow him when there was a sort of stir which caused Thomson to run out to find Bridges with a huge bullet hole through his thigh. As they carried him behind the traverse, he said, Don't carry me down, I don't want any of the stretcher-bearers hit. Col. White had the traffic in the gully cleared, so that it would be clear to the Turk that the only movement was the carrying down of a wounded man, and then the party moved slowly to the beach. Bridges was taken at once to the Hospital Ship Gascon. But the doctors found the whole blood sup- ply of the limb had been cut off, and nothing could save his life, but complete amputation at the thigh-an opera- tion which at his age of fifty-four must prove fatal. Be- fore the Gascon sailed for Alexandria, Bridges knew he was dying. His final word to Col. House was that his regret should be conveyed to the Minister of Defence, that his despatches on the landing were not complete, and he was too tired now. He died before the ship reached Egypt. His body was brought to Australia and buried on the crest of a hill commanding a glorious view of the valley of the Molonglo, three or four miles from Canberra. But as a writer in the Sydney paper, Morning Herald , pointed out, not because of the magnificient panorama, nor because of any particular beauty that nature has given to the site it- 1 H, Qfff x A W mf?

Mr. Ketchum is planning to remain at the School for about a Week, and then on the doctor's orders, he is taking a much deserved rest in the Laurentians to recuperate from his serious back operation which was performed near the end of October. We are glad to hear that the operation was a success, and to know that Mr. Ketchum will soon be with us again. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mr. Taylor The sympathy of the School is extended to the Rev. Norman Taylor who was compelled to give up his work at the School through illness. Since leaving us early in the term he has been undergoing treatment at Christie Street Hospital where we hope he will make a rapid recovery. Hallowe'en Party After Chapel on Thursday, October 31, the annual New Boys' Hallowe'en Party got under way. The obstacle race, the first event, was breath-taking to say the least. Brent started off well but in the last few laps, they fal- tered and Bethune finally emerged victorious. In the apple-ducking contest the tables were turned, however, and Brent Won by a considerable margin. The chocolate bar hunt was a great success this year with a hundred bars being more or less evenly distributed among the competitors. After the classroom block had been turned upside down, the whole School retired to the Hall where quantities of delicious refreshments were served. A great deal of thanks is due to Mrs. Wilkin, the Pre- fects, and the Seniors for a perfect evening's entertain- ment. Movies in the Hall The first movie this year was shown on Saturday, October 5. It was Tundra , an exciting drama of a fly- ing doctor who, when forced down in the Arctic, has en- counters with nearly every animal that lives in that region. He, however, with the help of two bear-cubs finally over- comes his difficulties and fights his way back to civiliza- tion. ' TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 The Adventures of Chico , however, shown on Octo- ber 28, was not such a success. There was a large atten- dance for the shorts and news but few besides the Junior School saw the finish of the feature. The projection is supervised this year by Patterson i who is to be congratulated on his handling of the projector. Life-Saving For many years there has been an excellent rule that all boys in the Senior School must obtain their intermediate Life Saving certificates. In this course they learn the fundamental methods of rescuing and reviving a drowning person. These lessons are undoubtedly of great value in later life and also far greater safety is obtained for all who use the pool. Life Saving Classes have been started for New Boys and for a few boys who for various reasons failed to com- plete the course last year. These classes are ably instruct- ed by the following boys: Chitty, Goering, Patterson i, Dal- ley, Maclaren, Conyers i, Prentice, Chester, Deverall, Woods i, Huycke. Visit of Miss Kilby On Saturday, November 16, the School was very honoured to hear a recital by Miss Muriel Kilby, the well- known young marimbist virtuoso. Accompanied by Miss Joyce Kilmaster on the piano, Miss Kilby performed feats on her instrument that few of the audience imagined pos- sible. The first part of her programme consisted of Rondo alla Turca by Mozart, Traumerie by Schumann, and Perpetuum Mobile from the Sonata in C major by Weber. Following this was heard Introduction and Rondo Capric- cioso by Saint-Saens, The Last Spring by Grieg, and 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Burleska by Josef Suk. After a short intermission, several pieces by Chopin were heard followed by Zigeunerwiesen by Sarasate. The main programme was so appreciated. that Miss Kilby was persuaded to add several encores, Moto Perpetuo by Carl Bone, and the well-known Danny Boy . The School would like to thank Miss Kilby and Miss Kilmaster for a most enjoyable evening. We look for- ward to another visit from them in the very near future. Music Appreciation Hours On almost ever Friday night of the term so- far, all the boys who are interested in classical and semi-classical music have withdrawn to the Hall for an hour or so, to listen to different well-known selections chosen by R. D. Butterfield. A very pleasing variety has been presented including Grieg's Piano Concerto , The Rhapsody in Blue , Peter and the Wolf , The 1812 Overture and Chopin's Polonaise . These programmes have certainly added much to the enjoyment of the music lovers in the School, and a sharp increase has been noted in the number of boys attending each week, showing the increasing popularity that this type of music is enjoying. U.C.C. Victory Dinner In honour of the First Team's victory over Upper Canada the previous Saturday, Mrs. Ketchum gave a din- ner for all members of Bigside on Monday, October 21, at the Lodge. The sumptuous menu consisted of tomato juice, lamb chops, green peas, sweet or mashed potatoes. ice cream, cake and coffee. Perhaps the most outstand- ing items on the bill of fare were the two cakes. One, a large square one had T.C.S. - 12 on it while the other, a small round one. had U.C.C. - 5 inscribed. The colours TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 of the two schools were suitably represented and after the larger one had been demolished by Bigside the smaller was presented to the Co-Captains, French and Lawson. That cake, incidentally, was not kept as a souvenir of the game. It was a marvellous meal and the whole squad is deeply indebted to Mrs. Ketchum for it. The Half Term Break At 10.30 a.m. on Friday, November the first, the bells pealed, and then in a torrent, everyone fled to buses, cars, and trains. The long awaited half-term break had begun! Few went east, as most of the School wanted to see the Ridley game in Toronto. A number of the boys who re- mained at School were able to get up for the game also, and on returning spent a pleasant week-end at the Pat Moss Ski Camp, revelling in food and sleep. The week-end passed all too quickly and before we knew it, Tuesday night had come, and back to Port Hope we all trooped, some refreshed and others slightly fatigued after what was considered by all as one of the better half-term breaks. -1----l-i 11 The Dramatic Society After the tremendous success of the play Captain Applejackn last year, a Dramatic Society has again been formed in the School. The new society has undertaken in the first place, at the request of the Headmaster, to control fnot to dominatel the Christmas Entertainment, making sure that all productions are properly rehearsed and have at least some literary value. This, it is hoped, will makethe evening more enjoyable for all who are pre- sent. In addition, the society intends to produce a full length play at Easter. Meetings of the Club are held every fortnight, at which plays are read and acting technique discussed. We also 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD hope to have speakers visit us and talk on the dramatic art. We are only sorry that we could not accept all those boys who applied for membership this year. We certainly appreciate their interest and their good sportsmanship when refused. In closing I should like to mention that the Society would Welcome any contributions in the way of costumes, plays and props, as we are short of all these at the moment. Remember, your interest means our success. The Secretary. The Football Dinner The Annual Football Dinner was held in the Hall on Wednesday, November 27. The Bigside Rugby, Soccer, and Oxford Cup teams were present as well as the Cap- tains and Vice-Captains of the Middleside, Littleside and J .S. teams. After an extremely good dinner the Headmaster, who has only just returned from hospital, began the speech making by proposing a toast to the King. Mr. Hodgetts and the Bigside Co-Captains then made speeches, and Law- son presented the coach with a walnut coffee table as a gift from the whole of Bigside to commemorate a most successful season. George Hees, Mr. Bagley, Mr. Hass and Mr. Tottenham, as well as the various team repre- sentatives made speeches, and toasts were proposed to the first Rugby and Soccer teams. Mr. Alley was then asked to give his impressions, as a father, of this year's team. After this Lawson was presented with the Kerr trophy for the most valuable player on Bigside, Brewer was given the Kicking and Catching Cup and Cox received the Oxford Cup. Much thanks is due to Mrs. Wilkin and her assistants for providing such a delicious banquet. The evening will be remembered as one of the most successful football dinners in the history of the School. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD . . as SV Xa , I WIRELESS During the past month a great deal of interest has centred around our newly formed wireless group. The class consists of twenty qualified advanced signallers. under the capable instruction of Company Sgt. Major ln- structor G. F. Turner. We have one No. 19W set and two No. 58W sets fwalkie-talkiesl, on loan from District Cadet Stores. After lectures on procedure, operation, and some experience in tuning and netting the sets, we were inform- ed by the Signals Afl that we were expected to go on the air, and using key, establish communications with Bow- manville and Port Hope High Schools. VVhen the net was properly tuned we were to go on RT. We did this and Worked Bowmanville, a distance of over twenty miles, per- fectly. Since then we have been in communication several times, and if our batteries were not so easily discharged many more messages would be passed. On October 26 our football game with Saint Andrew's was broadcast to the boys who were in the School hospital. This was followed up by the broadcast of the Ridley game. played on Upper Canada's grounds on November 4. The Headmaster was ill in the Toronto General Hospital and was anxious to hear the game. A short wave receiver was obtained lan ordinary radio set which would receive on six to eight megacyclesl, and the Headmaster 'and boys 3.-1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD who were unable to attend the game were given a running commentary from the field. Needless to say, the sets are in constant demand among the boys of the class during their free afternoonsg Major Batt and one of the boys, taking one of the two Walkie-talkies in a car, and maintaining contact with the other set back at School, were able to obtain perfect recep- tion up to four miles. The interest among the boys out- side the class is shown by their enthusiasm for advanced signals, since the class is limited to those who have quali- fied in this subject. We are losing the sets for awhile now. but we hope to get them back again. The hockey season will soon be starting and the boys are looking forward to broadcasting these games. -J. P. Williamson, Form VIA. LITTLE BIG FOUR FOOTBALL The Little Big Four. These words affect the athletic side of our general school life more, perhaps, than any others. From September to November in four Ontario schools, football players go through a gruelling training programme designed to prepare them for three a1l-im- portant games. In three thrilling weeks the games are played before thousands of spectators and faithful Old Boys. The Little Big Four Football Championship is an annual football struggle between the Little Big Four Schools: Bishop Ridley College, St. Andrew's College. Upper Canada College and, of course, T.C.S. We had in previous years played annual matches with Upper Canada and Ridley but on October 15, 1902, we played S.A.C. for the first time and thus the league now known as the Little Big Four Football League was born. For a time it was known as the Inter-Scholastic Football League with the term Little Big Four first appearing in connection with TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 rugby in a 1910 issue of the Record . Since its inception the schedule has been played regularly every year with the exception of 1918, when an influenza epidemic in Toronto prevented our playing any outside matches, and 1928 when the School fire forced us to move to Woodstock. During these years we have had only four champion- ship teams. Our first victory came in 1908 when G. C. CPetel Campbell captained the team through the schedule undefeated. The next was in 1910 when we carried off the crown under the captaincy of N. H. Macaulay. In 1911 we won for the third time in four years with Harry Symons as captain. In 1934 our first team was carried through without one defeat in any game by E. Cochran, captain, and Mr. Milton Burt, coach. Between 1911 and 1934 were twenty-three hard seasons when no championship came to Port Hope. From 1920 to 1925 we did not win a single Little Big Four football game. After 1925 there were a few fairly successful seasons when We won two out of the three games. In 1930 we finished in a triple tie for first place. Since 1934, Ridley has won every year with the exception of 1939 and 1945 when S.A.C. took the title. In 1945 we shared a three-way second place tie. This year the growing spirit and enthusiasm made us forget our original misgivings about light, inexperienced players, and Bigside won every game except the Ridley game. The interest and support of the School this season was noticed more than it had been for many years. Good hard, clean football teaches more than how to kick a ball. It teaches teamwork, co-operation, co-ordi.na- tion of mind and action and provides healthful exercise. The participants leave the field better mentally and physically for having played. Little Big Four football is recognized all over Ontario by men who know clean high school football at its best, played for the sake of the game with true sportsmanship, not for the all-out purpose of Winning only. For these reasons we look to the Little Big Four to carry on its traditions and what they represent. -J. A. Powell, Form VIA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BRIEF BIOGRAPHIES ROBERTSON, R. W. S.-Robbie was not one of those who win a great deal of acclaim, yet he was most useful and necessary in the daily running of the School. He was not an athlete but participated with a great deal of en- thusiasm in all games-something which is difiicult to do when you have no great talent for sports. Always quiet and unobtrusive, he had a. friendly smile and helping hand for anyone. He was a most efficient head librarian, did yeoman work as business manager of the Record, and in recognition of these services he was promoted to a senior last year. Though unspectacular, his high stan- dard of efficiency in School duties has made it difficult to replace him. Good luck, Robbie. MALLOCK, F. D.-Dave arrived at T.C.S. back in '42 and quickly settled in for a successful stay. Although very able, he was under a. handicap in the athletic field being slightly under average size. Consequently his abounding energies found vent in long bicycle rides, walks in the country, and in the felling of trees. He played Middle- side soccer, was on the Record staff, and in his final year was head House Officer of Brent. But Sam's greatest success lay in the academic field. He was al- ways one of the younger boys in his class, and his final year here, though spent in acquiring the few remaining subjects for his senior matric, was principally occupied in hard study for the Royal Naval College entrance exams, which he wrote last May and distinguished him- self by coming second out of the forty-five candidates. Thus Sam now resides at R.N.C., B.C., and our best wishes go with him. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 OGRADY, D. M.-In 1942 the United States entered the War, and Lefty O'Grady entered Trinity College School. These world shattering events seem to have little in com- mon, but they both turned out for the best. Although small, Lefty had a physique seldom witnessed in this world and was as tough as wartime gum. As captain he led a determined Middleside team of '44 through a rugged season. His bone-crushing tackles and lightning runs will long be remembered. But his main love was gym. work. When he was not wandering about trying to find a coat big enough to fit his shoulders and still not touch the ground he was up in the gym. flying around the high bar. It is said that he spent so much time on his hands that he forgot how to tie his shoes. Because of a knee injury Lefty had to give up all sports and spend his time working and coaching. In his quiet way he contributed greatly to the School life. Thus in his last year he was made a House Officer. We all thank him and heartily wish him success at Northern Vocational. HAWKE, D. W.-It took Dave two years to get a nick- name which he is boimd to carry for a long while. How he got the name of Rooster is still to many, ibut not Moose and Tankj a mystery. However, we must here say that Rooster came to Bethime House in '43 and soon showed his versatility in the field of sports. He climaxed his final year by making first teams in football, hockey and cricket. He was a strong tenor in the choir, and was appointed a house officer for his all-round contri- bution to school life. One of Rooster's favourite pas- times was to amuse a bevy of admirers, especially a certain Moose of doubtful fame. However, he took these things in his stride just as he did his studies. We were sorry to see him go, but he is now taking a shot TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD at his honour matric at Cantab, and the best wishes of the School go with him. STOKES, R. P.-- Stoker , Brazil's gift to T.C.S., ambled into Brent House in '41, after spending three years in the J .S. Irwin's successor as School electrician, he ably carried out his responsibilities in supervising stage light- ing and the movies in the hall Cdespite the many un- planned intermissionsl. Though not outstanding in school work, he tried hard and in his last year was in VS. This very perseverance brought him success on the foot- ball field as a dependable fighting inside on Bigside for two years in a row. In track, he came first last year in the Senior High Jump at the Inter-School track meet in Toronto. Many a T.C.S. Middleweight boxer has felt the sharp sting of his fast jabbing blows and in his last year he was champion in his weight. For many years he was also a stalwart bass in the choir and as photographer for the Record he did an excellent job last year. For his steady dependability he was made a house officer. We hope he will have less trouble with his work in Brazil than he had with the temperamental movie projector here. 11-11 CROWE, C.--Kit, after a very successful sojourn in the Junior School, graduated, and from then on he was seen wandering through the halls of Brent House. He was in the Senior School three years and during this time he made himself an enviable record. He was a member of Middleside Gym. in his first two years, and only through an injury did he miss the peak of success-the Hrst football team. He was also credited with being something of a brain and he always made the A forms. His secret of success was determination. Kit would have had a very successful year had he returned, but his qualities were recognized, and he was seized by TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 the Department of Education for the teaching profession from which he is going on to University. So long, Kit, and the best of luck to you in the future. - DOBELL, W. M.-Bill was one of the boys that came to us from Selwyn House in 1943. He left us three years later, a Sixth Former, a House Officer and a most en- thusiastic member of the Political Science Club. Wong also took an active part in School sports, excelling especially in track. He was on both Middleside rugby and hockey and in addition played an enviable game at tennis and squash. Billy was as well somewhat of a brain . Despite his remark before the final history exam in June, I don't know what's coming off in this stuff , he managed to be one of the few that pulled off a first class honour. Bill left many friends at T.C.S. May he make as many and be as successful at McGill. DURNFORD, J. W.- Duncan was one more of the be- wildered New Boys of '43, and one more of the hard House Officers of '46. Always a fiendish Cto put it mildlyj worker, Dunk certainly earned the title of brain , He was especially famous for his elaborate preparation of devoirs in French. Needless to say, he won the French prize on Speech Day despite a long period of illness for the most part of the Trinity term. Dugan was no athlete, but he certainly earned this title of fiend also on Middleside soccer Csomeone once likened him to an express trainl. But Dunk's main achieve- ment was as business manager of the Record. He type- wrote absolutely everything for the Record last year, and found time to sort and file all the old copies of the Record as well as the photographic plates. It would be impossible to count the number of hours he spent slaving in the Record room, but a moderate estimate would be TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD four hours daily. Dugan certainly earned the prize for valuable assistance on the Record staff which he won on Speech Day. He is now at McGill studying-amazing, what ?-but Dunk just wouldn't be Dunk if he wasn't working. HALLWARD, J. M.- Huge Henry was his nickname when he joined the boys of Brent in September '43, and an appropriate name it was, for Johnny tipped the scales at close to seventy-five pounds and towered to almost four-and-a-half feet in height. He soon made himself Well-known by his somewhat over-impetuous nature. On account of his lack of bulk, he could not buck the line . or Ubodycheck the forwards but Johnny more than made up for this in other activities. Always a great talker Ito say the least!J he was a fine debater, and was one of the three to represent T.C.S. in the debate against U.C.C. Last year he was Vice President of the Dramatic Society, and an accomplished actor, both on and off the stage. He spent many a weary hour in the depths of the library under the eagle eye of Mr. Maier doing much unsung work there for the School. As literary editor of the Record he did a commendable job, and proved that he well deserved the position by winning the Lieu- tenant Governor's Silver Medal for English on Speech Day. Besides all this, he was Secretary of the Political Science Club and a Sacristan. Johnny was best known for his terrific talent as a gowl lasher . For this, fand all the other virtuesj, he was awarded House Officer Privileges. Johnny is now in Switzerland learning to speak German and French, and he writes that he is neither smoking nor drinking but is saving all his energy so as to be able to administer suitable punishment to all and sundry when he visits us again next Easter. You can't keep a good man down, can you, Johnny? i.i. T TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 LEHMAN, G. W.-Some people never learn that they have made a mistake until it is too late. However, Jeff Leh- man, being an exception to this rule, left Selwyn House to come to T.C.S. in January, 1944. The School life seemed to agree with Jeff for he took an active part in many things. He was a good soccer player, winning his colours in his last year. Jeff was not a natural hockey player but he played the game every winter with dogged determination. His cricket abilities came to the fore in the summer term. He played on Middleside in his second year but in his last year he decided his studies came first and gave up a good chance for Bigside. Looie , as the Montrealers called him, was what is termed a bright boy winning the English and Latin prizes and obtaining five firsts in his Senior Matric. He also was a member of the Political Science Club. All in all Jeff led a full life at T.C.S. and proved to be one of the saner people to come here. For these contributions to the School he received the promotion to House Oflicer. We are sure that he will have the same success at McGill that he had here. PALMER, W. H. M.-Wilf left the noble institution of Sel- wyn House and came to T.C.S. in the Fall of '-43. He left here last June better educated iwe hopej after acquiring many new friends. In the interim, Wilf led a full, useful life and for this became a House Officer. He could usually be found either planning or executing some novel idea yet seemed despite this a level-headed in-- dividual. Not a notable athlete, he played on Middle- side soccer and did a fine job in last year's gruelling Ox- ford Cup race despite the loss of a shoe part way around. His extra-curricular activities included the Choir and the Record staff and in both of these he was invaluable. He Was, of course, a good student and found little trouble in getting his matric last year. He is now successfully TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD beginning a career at McGill. We're confident that Our boy Wilf won't fail us at McGill. GRIER, D. S.-Dave came to T.C.S.. in the Fall of '43 violently pro-American, and left last year with his ideas slightly tempered down, but nevertheless still dominant in thought if not in speech. Dave's main activity was football where he starred on a fighting Middleside team of two years ago. Last year, however, he gave up a sure position on Bigside in order to devote more time to his studies. To take the place of his favorite game he became a devoted member of the Choir and of the smoker, taking a fairly prominent part in both. In the summer term he was appointed R.Q.M.S. of the Cadet Corps and carried out his duties in an approved fashion. When not doing cadet work he dabbled in cricket though it more closely resembled baseball, and was on the famous Middleside Sluggers XI. As an acknowledgement of his capabilities he was made a House Officer inhis last year. Dave has now gone on to College back home where he hopes to take up Medicine. Good luck to a friend from across the border. ,i- TAYLOR, G. O.-In the Fall of '44 a group of well-fed boys arrived claiming Timmins as their native city. Among this lot fall of which descended unmercifully on Brent Housel was one George Taylor about whom this effort is intended to be. Were I an artist this task would be a good deal easier as George's bulk, his mass of hair and permanent grin speak much more eloquently than words. Unfortunately I'm not and so I must fall back on the written word. Our hero acquired the name Oboe from his larger playmate, Hart Drew, and by this he was known for the rest of his days here. A soccer and basketball player of the phoom type he did credit- 1 N . A -. -. s 'E 1 I 5. .N. W FQ U3 -4 54 Bi 2? P3 F1 T. gc 3:3 '2 -.TJ 71,3 Z3 ,,..

He came out of his cave lmeaning, of course, the smokerl in the spring long enough to take a look at cricket and with a puzzled sigh went back to his work. Oboe distinguished him- self in the ring in his final year and after keeping Killer Cox at bay for four rounds he won the Brad- burn Cup jointly with his opponent. For all his work around the School, and for his all-round geniality George became a House Officer and in this capacity left us last June. All's well that ends well, Oboe! i.1.ii- CARHARTT, W. S.--Bill Carhartt came to T.C.S. in the Summer term of 1944. The School became aware of two things: Irvine, Kentucky, the home of all great souther- ners, and Carhartt's manufactured overalls. In his sec- ond year Bill was a lineman on Littleside rugby and played bigside basketball. In his final year Bill was a member of VS and a strong supporter of the smoker. He won his Bigside Basketball colours and was leading scorer on the team. Last summer one would frequently hear a shout of fore! and a golf ball would whizz over- head and out onto bigside cricket pitch. After trying his hand at cricket, he went back to hard ball-the game of men. Bill was made a House Officer after Christmas. fully deserving this promotion. Our southern colonel left these hallowed walls last year and is now attending that seat of learning that we all heard so much about- University of Kentucky. 1...i..T-. CALDBICK, J. H.- Butch arrived from the north in '44 and in his own quiet way contributed his talents to the life of the School for the two years he was here. A hard worker on the Record staff, he was its chief wit and in his last year won the Gavin Ince Langmuir prize for the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD best article contributed to the Record. A good deal of his time was devoted to his vocal talents. For two years he was in the tenor section of the choir and in his last year his interpretation of Mabel in the Pirates of Pen- zance was one of its features. The rest of his time was divided between the smoke-screened crew of the Smokers of which he was a proud member, and the Timmins fra- ternity in Middle Flat Brent. In his last year he was a member of VS-S for scholarship he claimed. Before he left he was made a house officer and his quiet but Witty manner won him many friends. We wish him the best of luck with his Senior Matric at Timmins High. RIDDELL, S. C.-Diddle entered the hallowed walls of Brent House in 1943 along with the other graduates from the Junior School, after spending two- and one half years in this lower seat of learning. Did, as many of his friends called him, although no star in studies, was an- other of the School's very fine gymnasts, spending two years on the first gym. eight. He also dabbled lightly in rugby making the Middleside twelve in his last year with us. If you couldn't find Did in the gym., he would most certainly be with his two cronies, Gill and Whitty, jabbering a wild unintelligible jargon of his own brew- ing. With his smiling countenance and wild laughter, Diddle is numbered among the noble ranks of Trinity's school characters. In his last year here, as a member of VC, Did was made a House Officer. The Did Kid succeeded in his naval college exams and he is now out at Royal Roads learning the life of a sailor. The best of luck to you, Did, in your new surroundings. EVEREST, B. B.-Although only a new boy last year, his brief career at T.C.S. turned out extraordinarily well. We first remember him one night two weeks after School TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 began, walking into Chapel with his characteristic gait and wearing what looked like a Ridley tie. Our doubts were soon dispelled, however, and he began immediately to adapt himself here, with a great deal of success. He played on the first soccer team and received half team colours. He then migrated to the basketball court where he did nobly on a continuously outplayed junior team. In the spring he even played cricket and under the varied coachings of different people ended up on the first squad though not quite the first XI. All this while we have neglected to mention the classroom, yet it is here that he really shone. Although a member of VIB, he came very close to winning the Chance11or's prize and then went on during the upper school exams to get by far the best marks in the School. All in all, not a bad year's work. Keep it up Brian, boy. . Valete Tessier, K. C.-Form IVC 1431. i-...l.

Hyde, Form VIA. 5G TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES A shadowy figure crept down the stairs, peered up and down the darkened corridor, and glanced at the clock which read 11.30 p.m. Seeing that the coast was clear, he padded softly down the hall, stopped in front of a door and entered, closing it so-ftly behind him. The room was dark except for a slight glow which emanated from a photograph on the desk. The only noise heard was that of four or five boys who were struggling furtively on the floor, while three or four others stood around silently watching and sometimes jumping up and down on any arms or legs which protruded from the maelstrom. The unknown visitor stood by the door Watch- ing these events, and tried to discern some of the scrambled voices and figures in the room. Suddenly a small form was propelled from the pile and through the window. laughing insanely and hideously as he left. Ah , cried our hero to himself, Tony Wells . As he spoke, a hand reached out of the heap on the floor, grabbed a part of the bed and twisted it to an unrecognizable mass. Nort Cox . breathed the watcher and wrote down the two names. All at once, above the muffled roar of the fight, the gnawing of teeth was heard, followed soon after by a cry of tim- ber , as a table leg crashed to the floor. Let me see, mused our scout, Wood, beaver, eager beaver-Ian Camp- bell! and he quickly jotted down the name. As he spoke an enormously muscled figure leapt into the fray, knock- ing his opponents right and left. Our school-boy Super- man was at work again, thus the name of Bill Brewer was added to the ever-growing list. As the struggle progressed, a high-pitched Yankee accent was heard extolling the U.S.A., and Concord in particular, before his soap-box was knocked from beneath him and he toppled over into the meleeg then someone's face which faintly resembled that of a famous movie star called Van , was silhouetted against the window for an , TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 instant. This time the names of Jack French and Nev. Conyers were written down hastily. A figure then emerged from the conglomeration of bodies, gave it a haughty stare and stalked from the room. It was Fennell not caring less again. Suddenly the room was lighted by the brilliant glare of a flash-bulb as Steve Baker snapped the scene. Look for it in the Record! he cried. In the sudden light two iigures were seen huddled over a desk, one doing Latin and the other writing a letter with a well-known ill fiendish gleam in his eye. A closer examination revealed the addressee to be a lady called Liz. The names of Nogi Newcomb and Geoff Ccensoredj Taylor were thus placed on the now quite long list. Just then the sound of a peculiar reed instrument was heard outside in the corridor. The door opened and in marched a procession, all in step, singing lustily and led by a musician C! ? IJ playing Clarinet Marmalade . His followers consisted of a well-fed, rotund, rosy-cheeked lad whose hands kept opening and shutting automatically as if trying to grab something, another lad, who had both of his hands in casts and was continually using them as clubs -very effectively, toog then one singing in a nasal tone to the accompaniment of an out-of-tune guitar, another who bore a slight resemblance to a Winnipeg gold-eye ffishl 3 and finally a tall, bow-legged disjointed brute imita- ting i'?J a maniac.

'f HILLHOUSE From the first moment I laid eyes on Hillhouse I loved the place-loved the blue mountains surrounding itg the green woods with their Winding pine-scented trailsg the landscape when in its autumn pattern of colourg and the pure whiteness of the snow on a frosty-fresh Winter day. In the summer it was my joy to Walk in the woods with my mother, over trails cushioned with pine needles and to admire the variation of toadstools and berries that grew alongside, or watch a full-mouthed chipmunk scamper into his lair in a rock Wall. I used to love to pick the rasp- berries and blackberries of the garden for supper. After the meal, the whole family would go up to the hill behind the house, to Watch the sun sink below the mountains, more beautiful now than ever, in their pink and blue even- ing haze. But we children appreciated all seasons alike, for we had few worries and joys were ahead all the year round. Late summer with its lush, red tomatoes and yellow corn blended into autumn, which produced the fruits of the farmer's yearly toil. The falling of leaves was accom- panied by big tasty apples and then the tangy cider accom- panied the cold nip in the air. This announced winter with a shrill wind that whistled through the forest and warned all animals to prepare. With winter came Christmas, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD skating on the pond and sleighing, all to the tune of tink- ling bells and happy singing. But it was not long before winter melted into spring and the slushy season brought syrup from the maple trees and then sugar from the syrup. At last, with a splendid flourish of green, spring heralded summer once again. If one can ever really love a place, I am that person, and even if I were to keep writing for many years, I could not relate all the joys I have found at Hillhouse, for I associate Hillhouse with this love of life and nature. And yet, there is a certain air of fear and mystery about the place that I have felt since early childhood .... a fear which grew on me more every year that I lived there. I have, in these later years, tried to analyse it, and after many thoughtful hours have come to a conclusion. I will start at the very beginning ..... It was late autumn when I was but seven years old. The leaves had fallen from the trees and all the country- side Was bare and bleak, silently awaiting winter. I awoke early one morning and arose to shut my bedroom window. What I saw on the lawn startled me. One of the farm- hands was behind a tree aiming a high-powered rifle at some large animal, not fifty feet away. At first I was in doubt as to what animal it was, but as it moved I recog- nized it as a bear. I had only seen pictures of bears and on seeing a live one so close and for the first time, I was more than a little shaken. The booming shot that follow- ed came so unexpectedly that I jumped back a few feet from the window, and my heart seemed to leave my breast. The shell had obviously hit the bear, and before the man could shoot again, the animal had limped off on all fours into the woods that fringed the lawn. Then the cold pene- trated me and I jumped back into bed, determined to say nothing of what I had seen, for I knew the grown-ups would be worried if they realized I had witnessed such a scene. Less than a week later I heard something that was to be deeply imprinted on my young mind. It was after 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD breakfast and my mother and father were talking in the living-room, unaware that I was listening outside the door. I am now sorry that I ever heard those words. My father said that the day before, not two miles away from our farm, a man had been killed in the woods by a limping bear, which had attacked him for no apparent reason. My mother was warned to keep the children away from the woods until the bear was found and killed. The bear was never found and the scare wore off, but the whole incident was firmly branded on my mind. This, coupled with the death of my mother which followed only a few weeks later, I believe are the roots of this fear I have of Hill- house. Since then, every little unusual incident that occurred was to be a cause for some unaccountable fear. After I heard Wildcats crying on the lawn at night and saw their clawmarks on the ground the next morning, I was hesitant to sleep or walk in the woods, alone. I loved the tales of the old aunts, legends of Indians and wild animals, but I could not help feeling a little disturbed by them and they set me to thinking at night. Hillhouse itself, with its roll- ing green lawns, rock garden and solitary apple tree in front, is plain enough, but there are certain things within the house itself that I began to notice and which produced an effect on me. The painting at the head of the stairs, of my mother when she was young, clothed in a rather melancholy dress, I began to imagine as a portrait of some unfortunate of the storybooks such as Anne Boleyn. After my mother's death I hesitated to enter her room, for no apparent reason except that I felt it still haunted by her presence. I now disliked the atmosphere of the house in a thunderstorm-dark as it was naturally, and made eerie by the long shadows thrown by the light of the gas lamps. In less than a year I had become a very nervous and timid child. And yet, in spite of my fears of Hillhouse, I still loved the place. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 This summer, the first in many years, I have returned to Hillhouse and because I am much older, I now realize there is nothing to be afraid of in the woods. But when I walk up the stairs and am met by the eyes of my mother's portrait, or when I enter her room, my childhood fears come rushing back to me, and I become extremely uneasy. I have, by logical reasoning and with a calm mind, tried to overcome these fears. I cannot. I know now, if I were to live at Hillhouse for the rest of my life, I would surely be driven mad. -W. K. Newcomb, Form VIA. EPITAPH I was in no way good. In people's eyes I was a rascal. Friends and enemies Alike looked not for virtue in my life, But rather for my faults. They never saw The house I gave, in which to put the chair Of their donation, neither did they thank The soil for the abundance of their crop, But ever emphasized those faults I had, Making them seem to shadow out all good. If therefore they disdained me while I lived, Now that I live not, let them still disdain, Not falsely praise my waning memory In politic affection. Let them not With looks of sorrow and with wagging heads Stand on street corners, lying to the world. May you who do remember me in truth Think on my sins, remember me by them, Lest, by my good, so little thought should die. -R. D. Butterfield, Form VIA. 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD THE RETURN OF A VETERAN He stood looking down at the body. Why? Why had he done it? Peter, his friend-his only friend. A feeling of nausea came over him and he felt very faint. Every- thing swam before his eyes-how useless it all seemed. Why not rest? He would die soon and it would be all over. He felt very tired ..... Yeah, I know chief, I know! Detective Sergeant Rowland spoke fretfully, No one would bump off a guy and then stay with his corpse unless he was nuts. But the fella ain't nuts .... we had him psycho-analysed. A per- son's brain may snap from reaction, but even then, who would remain on the floor two feet from his victim for eight hours until he was discovered and arrested? Well, ignoring that, it's an open and shut case. His fingerprints are on the gun, he confesses to the murder, wants no lawyer, enters no plea and he put up no fight when the patrolman arrested him. I'm afraid he hasn't a chance. He will be convicted of first degree murder . The white-haired chief of police acted as if the whole thing were finished. He had seen many strange and tragic things in his life and he felt no emotion. Ill if 46 IF SF The trial was over. In the cell block the convicted murderer, sentenced to die in the electric chair, sat on his cot staring at the bare cement wall ahead of him. How unreal it all seemed! Yet, conversely, it seemed very real. He had remembered it all when the policemanls hand had roughly shaken him out of his stupor and he had been told he was under arrest. The army medics in the California hospital had told him he had war nerves which were the cause of his strange loss of self-possession and faith in himself. When, at Iwo Jima, he had seen his buddies killed on either side of him and felt their broken bodies beneath his feet as he charged, this strange feeling of self pity had come upon l 1 f l l TRHWITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 him. Why, he wondered, had he not been killed? He, a small fragment of a vast army, so many of which had met a violent death. Marie, his wife, and their small child. they, his most dearly beloved, had been killed by a Japanese bomb at Pearl Harbour, and why not he? He was such a tiny atom, alone now in a vast, cold world. Upon his release from hospital he had travelled hack to his native state of New York to obtain a job. His former friends shunned him. a shadow of his old self, a man with a frightful inferiority complex and a bad nervous condition. He had taken to drink and could not find employment. Then he met Peter Gregory, a veteran of the war-a happily married man with no scars of battle who had a good job. Peter had befriended him. One night, feeling wretched and miserable, he had met Peter in the street. They had talked together and then gone to Gregory's house. There he had learned all about Peter and his success upon his return from war. A mad jealousy had possessed him, he had fought it momentarily to no avail. As if hypnotized, he had risen from his seat. drawn his service revolver, and shot Peter six times in the face. He did not really know why he had done it. He knew that as he fired he was controlled only by his Warp- ed brain With its grim complex. Why, he had thought. has this man escaped death in battle and why have I? But we will not live-no, it is not right. We are no better than our dead brothers. He had fired the shots and fallen for- ward unconscious. Upon recovering his senses he had re- mained apathetically beside the body on the floor. Mrs. Gregory had come in much later, and screamed for help. Good, he had thought, now I will die. Here were the chaplain and Warden. The cell door opened and with no apparent interlude he found himself strapped in the electric chair. He thought of his past life with all its frustration, and he knew that he was not sorry to go. -T. G. R. Brinckman, Form IVA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD FLIGHT FROM REALITY I grasped the reins, I held them tight,- Then plunged my spurs into her side And off we galloped, leaving far Behind the cares I could not hide. We rode out through the southern gateg We gathered speed, we charged along, The road flew by beneath my feet, And feeling free I sang a song. I sang a song of free lands where The cares I knew were all unknown: Where men like me lived carefree lives Like sailors going where they're blown. We galloped farther stillg the road Turned left, but I kept straight a.head,- Across the moors of England where So many men of England bled. They have no cares where they are now, I thought,-they have found peace. Is death The only answer then? Does peace Come but with life's last feeble breath? We galloped on, the dust in curls Behind us marked the path we took,- And then a stream bestirred my thoughts, I stopped and lay beside the brook. The grass was green,-the green one sees But once: contentment dwelt beside The brook, I visited, it seemed, The home of some ethereal guide. My thoughts turned then, once more to life: The green of grass, the blue of stream Put in my mind the thought that death Was not the only way . . . I dreamed . . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 If nature offers peace like this, Then surely one might transfer it Elsewhere. If this be true, I'll see If I can transfer just a bit. Then riding back across the moors I vowed I'd capture peace in life, Not death, and then prepared myself To resolutely face the strife. 4 -J. R. Ligertwood V43-'45u. STAND FAST IN THE FAITH Across the great, empty stretch of yellow, scorching sandg in the heat and glare of the merciless, flaming sung over the ever-changing, shifting, windswept valleys and dunes, through the frequent, and blinding storms of sting- ing, pelting sand, there rode a lone figure, mounted on a horse whose steel-like muscles rippled under his sleek. black hide with every movement of his sinuous limbs. His master, the bold intruder of the desert solitude, wore the armour and dress of a Crusader, with a scarlet cloak fly- ing behind him like the wings of some monstrous bird, and across his massive chest was the sign and symbol of the Crusader-the Cross. But for all his outward appearance of strength, courage and fortitude, inward doubt, and fear racked his tormented mind, for it was not to duty he was racing, but to safety-lone survivor of the suicidal encounter with the overwhelming forces of the Arabs, in which his comrades were now fighting bravely and fearlessly, sacrificing their lives for the Christian faith. He had deserted, realizing that to remain meant death. He had not far to go, only a few hours more and he would be safeg already the sun was slowly descending from its lofty throne, and he calculated that with a certain amount of good fortune he could reach his goal by sunset. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Twice his horse stumbled, almost sending him flying into a bed of roasting sand, but still he sped onward, ever near- ing the awaiting haven. The sandstorm was becoming less violent and consequently he had more time for thought, the battle would be in full force, and the sands would be stained red with the blood of the fallen. He could hear the cries of his comrades there, fighting, killing, dying. He wondered if they would notice his absence and take him for a coward. Maybe he was a coward? But surely life was better than death. And yet what would life mean for him? Happiness and comfort, or shame and disgrace? Would he be questioned on arriving at his destination? Would he be dishonoured? Forget it, he thought, life is waiting, life, not death. Wo-uld the others receive life? Was there life eternal for them? Was there a God to give them happiness and peace of mind? Did their great faith mean anything? They were so sure of life hereafter that they were not afraid to die. Were they, not he, riding into life instead of death? Surely with such tremendous, undaunted faith, they must be right. The hot, cutting, swirling sands licked viciously at his unprotected legs, as his sandaled feet dug deeper and deeper into the steaming, sweating, leather-like flanks of his steed, urging him on faster and faster towards the noise and clamour of battle, towards the hoarse, blood- curdling yells of the Wounded and dying, and the clangings and clashings of the deadly swords. For the first time he felt at last the inward comfort and warmth of peace and happiness. Across his chest in bold, defiant colours he wore the sign of the Crusader. -F. H. S.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HELICOPTER It has always been man's desire to imitate birds and it is interesting to find that most of the attempts by early inventors to fly, were with flapping wings or rotating Wing aircraft. Among these early inventors, the chief desire was to hover, and travelling forward was a secondary idea. Originally the designers of fixed-wing aeroplanes 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD used forward speed as a means to get aircraft into the air. Now, at last, we finally have aircraft, other than cumber- some airships, that can hover. The real history of rotating wing aircraft goes back to Leonardo da Vinci's fifteenth century flapping wing contraption, which was the forerunner of a similar craft in the eighteenth century. Since then patent offices have been flooded with numerous designs for hovering machines. Among the designs proposed are flapping-wing types, paddle wheel, and rotating blade ideas. N Like all rotary wing aircraft, the helicopter is the safest class of aeroplane, with the ability to land in little more than its own dimensions, and is safe in bad visibility. To do this the rotors are designed to free-wheel in the event of an engine failure. One of the troubles at present hindering large machines of this type, is that in the rotat- ing blade type now generally used, an increase in rotor size causes the tips of the blade to travel at such great speeds that they go faster than the speed of sound, thus causing compressibility phenomena, of which we hear so much these days. The early machines could sometimes perform, but few of them were stable. During the last decade stability troubles have been overcome so that now there are many successful types of helicopters. To retain controlability, various methods have been used. One method was to hang control surfaces under the rotors, another was to change the blade angle by tilting the rotors, and a third was a set of variable pitch propellers at the approximate axes. The first method has now been discarded. The usual method of classifying helicopters is by the layout used to correct the torque of the rotor blades. These may be divided into two general classes, the first of which consists of those using pairs of rotors. Among early designers twin rotor helicopters with contra-rotating rotors superimposed coaxially were generally used. Then there are the twin rotor helicopters with rotors positioned side-by- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 side. In this class are the heavy weight lifters for they have the advantage that to step up size, all that need be done is increase the number of pairs of rotors and the bug- aboos attendant upon large blades are avoided. An ex- ample of this is the largest British helicopter, the Cierva Air Horse, using three rotors. Developed from this class are those having a pair of rotors side-by-side but inter- meshing like an egg-beater. hence taking up less space. Sometimes, instead of having the main blades side-by-side they are arranged in tandem one at each end of the machine. In this whole class of two row helicopters the torque of each rotor is counteracted by that of the other rotor spinning in the opposite direction and therefore the effect of torque is eliminated. Then in the other group are helicopters with a single rotor and some torque-reacting device. Sikorski, whose designs are so well known, has been working since 1909 on this type, and is regarded as the father of this class. In his machines the torque created by the main rotor is negated by a small airscrew at the tail of the machine. There are many different aircraft in this class. A further development of it uses the anti-torque propeller to drive the craft in the direction of flight. Even the jets of which we have heard so much lately have invaded the sphere of the helicopter. One English helicopter uses the turbine to drive the main rotor and the jet escapes through an exit pipe of controllable size in the tail to counteract the torque of the main blades. An Austrian version uses small jets at the rotor tips to turn the blades at high speeds. A recent innovation for overcoming torque consists of placing airfoil surfaces in the downwash of the rotor. These act like aeroplane wings set on edge and have a sideways lift. If they are large enough, sufficient lift can be created to counteract the torque from the blades themselves. At the present time helicopter evolution is at a stage similar to the aeroplane in the early 1910's, when relative 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD merits of biplanes and monoplanes, pushers and tractors, were established after a long series of trials and rejections. To-day, with its costly gearing of the rotors to the engines and the skill required to pilot it, the helicopter is not yet ready for general use by the public, but the days when its great utility becomes available to all are fast approaching. -R. L. Watts, Form VIA. WIND IN THE CHIMNEY - It was a wild night. The frantic wind pulled and buffeted everything that dared stand up to its fury, and those things which nature or man had constructed that defied it were subjected to a beating seldom parallelled. Those who hazarded their way through the cold night, either from foolishness or ill fortune, were conscious of great black clouds scudding rapidly across the dark star- less sky, and their ears were filled with the thousands of sounds of a furious gale, ranging from near human cries to hollow moanings. Amongst those unfortunate obstructions to the tumul- tuous storm was a small stone cottage upon which the wind appeared to lavish a particular violence, for it seemed such a solid object of defiance amongst the tossing, yielding trees whose tattered branches submitted to the slightest whim of the elements. From its stolid walls there shone a bright light, piercing the gloom like a ray of hope in a chaotic world. The light streamed from a small low-ceilinged room, whose warmth and comfort must have seemed particularly enticing to a stranger outside. The furniture consisted of a few leather arm-chairs, chosen, it would seem, for ease rather than elegance, and on the floor were many thick carpets. At one end of the room there burned cheerily several big pine logs in a singularly large fireplace, directly in front of which reclined a gray-haired man, whose half- closed eyes and drowsy countenance showed a complete TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD G5 lack of deference to the display of power of the storm. His self-satisfied expression portrayed a calm indifference to the furious gale which constantly beat upon the small house, and howled down the big stone chimney in a frustrated attempt to disturb the serenity and complete atmosphere of warmth and cosiness which pervaded thc interior. Soothed, rather than disturbed by the low moanings and monotonous sounds of the baffled wind, and half drunk with heat and drowsiness. the man gazed into the fire and dreamed ..... Before his eyes rose distant dreams of a colourful past: the highlights of his career stood out with unusual clearness and his active life presented itself to him anew. How vividly he remembered his first promotion in the army! The first of many, until one triumphant day he had received the command of his battalion. Then fol- lowed a happy era of success-victory on the battle field. and fame at home. Those were the days of action and valour. of recklessness and honour! Then it happened. The last desperate German counter-attack came upon the one day he had chanced to grant himself a day's leave. No one blamed him for the tragedy that ensued. No one actually said it was his fault, but two weeks later he was transferred to a quieter part of the front, and a month after that-honourable discharge and a pension for life. Somewhat morosely he returned to the present. He was old, and it was late. Wearily he arose, and turned to go to bed, leaving the glowing logs among the ashes, which. like his dreams, were the only remains of a once proud and brilliant past. 8 If if wk is The cold wind howled around the chimney, and through the darkness the rain beat upon the roof in un- ending torrents .... -P.

Much is said lpreachedl and written in the course of any season in any team game about spirit . Most of us agree that it is an essential ingredient in any successful team. Yet very seldom does a team, even a good one, not have some element of cleavage which weakens its spirit in countless intangible ways. The team this year developed a spirit of unselfish, co-operative loyalty to each other and, I believe, to the School, which no other team I have coached in the past fourteen years has had. It is very much to the credit of every boy on the squad that this is so. This very fact would make a successful season and the pleasant thing about it all is that it shows upon the score- board. Five wins and one loss is not so bad. And it certainly is a lot better than even the most optimistic of us Care there any optimists concerned with rugby, any- way?l hoped for in the beginning. Two old colours, four soccer players, and a few converted sub half backs for line- men! What a hammering these poor candidates for line positions took to try to learn, in a few short weeks, what might have been learned slowly, and much less painfully TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 over a few years! Several times the Headmaster and my- self sat down to discuss whether we were sacrificing sound educational principles to this incessant drive for better football. Each time we decided that, considering the type of boys trying for the team this year, they could take it a bit more. Finally, from a squad that was shoved all over the field by Middleside in the first scrimmage, there developed an average good team with that intangible some- thing which made them an above-average team. Of course, there were some good football players on the squad to start with and others developed through the season. It wasn't all spirit-a team has to have more than this to win games. Lawson, French, Jarvis and McIntyre nad established themselves as outstanding players last year. Lawson is one of the best ball carriers we've had here in some years. French, moving into the quarterback position, led the team well and he and Jarvis continued to give an excellent tackling display. McIntyre, once he be- came accustomed to viewing the world from between his legs, played a fine game at snap. Our soccer players, new to the complexities of football, did an amazing job. Cox i and Conyers ii developed into good linemen and Brewer is undoubtedly the best natural kicker we have had at T.C.S. in the years I've been at the School. Curtis and Hyde, moving from the backfield to the line this year, played well in every game. Curtis proved that, up to this year, he has been in the wrong place for he is really an out- standing lineman. fMore than I could say of him as a backfieldenl The boys coming up from Middleside- Armour, Pangman, Carson, Hall, Rickaby, Tessier, Alley- all showed the advantages of last year's experience and training and were a great help. With many of the above- mentioned returning to School next Fall to add to the ball handling ability of Bruce, Rogers and Gaunt we may look forward to a more experienced squad than we had this year. 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Several boys would have contributed even more to the team had it not been for injuries. This is particularly true of Conyers ii, Pangman, Carson and Drynan. Conyers certainly would have received his first team colours, and perhaps some others would have also, had injuries not kept them out of key games. And a special word about the two best substitutes a coach could wish for. Many boys on the bench secretly hope that the player in their position will get cracked up a bit so that he'll have a chance. At least one gets the feeling that this is so. I do not think it was so this year and certainly not of Fennell and Campbell i. I will not embarrass either one of them by enlarging on this state- ment but their complete disinterest in their own fate, as compared to that of the team was something I have never come across before. I asked Fennell one day if he ever felt badly about sitting out so much of each game and his reply was ---- no. I know I can't play rugby . Top marks for this attitude! No sooner does one rugby season end when We start talking about next fall. All through hockey, cricket and even examinations is sprinkled discussion of the team next year. It seems that we can look forward to 1947 with some optimism-that is up to the lst of September, for as Jack French reminded me in the excitement immediately after the U.C.C. game- It's fine now, but on Monday we'll all be terrible again. Undoubtedly we'll have a more experienced team and if, around those boys who do come back, there develops anything like the spirit of this year, we should have a good season. -A.B.H. IMPRESSION S 'OF TH.E CO-CAPTAIN S Mr. Hodgetts looked about anxiously. Gathered around him on Bigside field were thirty or forty eager faces from whom he would eventually pick the Bigside TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71 rugby squad for 1946. The prospective material was not a potential threat to the Argos, to say the least. There were only three old Colours back, and altogether no more than eight from the 1945 side. Among those noticeably present was the nucleus of last year's soccer eleven includ- ing the Bermuda bruisers, Cox, Conyers, and Brewer, none of whom had ever played rugby before. Only three on the field weighed more than 155 pounds. Mr. Hodgetts knew that T.C.S. would never field a team of powerful athletes, because we never import and are a relatively small school. He knew that from that exceptionally inexperienced group he had to field a team to meet a U.C.C. powerhouse which was to include nine old Colours, and the invariably strong Ridley squad, not to mention S.A.C. with their all-star Middleton back again. In short, Mr. Hodgetts had a very formidable undertaking ahead of him. In early scrimmages against Middleside, it was obvious that the boys, inexperienced and nervous, lacked the love of bodily contact that they would need in Little Big Four competition, and, to say the least, Bigside took quite a razzing. Several onlookers were heard to say that the first team would be fortunate to win a single game. But as time went on, that familiar Drive! Drive! Drive! gra- dually worked into us that extra something that makes the difference between a Winning and a losing team, and Mr. Hodgetts' constant drilling and attention began to reap success. On September 21, we met Peterborough on the School campus, and with a scant half dozen plays in our offensive repertoire, we eked out a narrow 13-12 victory against a team that later went on to a practically unbeaten season to emerge Senior C.O.S.S.A. champions. It is al- ways helpful to win the first game! Middleside was soon no match for Bigside, and on October 5, the team won the School's acclaim by drubbing Pickering at Newmarket by a decisive 14-6 score. However, from all reports, Picker- ing had not been up to their usual standard that day. The acid test to discover whether or not we were Little Big 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Four calibre came the following Friday at Varsity Stadium where we met U.T.S. Although U.T.S. came Within our ten yard line no less than four times during the game, the line held like a brick wall, and we again ended on top 5-2. It was in this game that Mr. Hodgetts saw the fruits of his heavy line drill. We had scored our third straight victory and were entering the Little Big Four unbeaten and untied. We were by that time determined to give the U.C.C. power- house at least a good run for their money, and on Octo- ber 19 on the U.C.C. grounds Bigside pulled one of the biggest Little Big Four upsets in many years, spilling the U.C.C. team decisively 12-5. Mr. Hodgetts was so excited, he cou1dn't even smoke his cigarettes! Everything went right that dayg the line trampled all over the U.C.C. line, the tackling was crashing and solid, Bill Brewer's kicking, which often sent the ball soaring far over the U.C.C. full- back's head, was the best seen in the Little Big Four in many years, in fact, every play seemed to just have to click. It was a wonderful experience for every T.C.S. player and supporter, a game none of us will forget for a long, long time. It was hard after the U.C.C. game not to look two weeks ahead to the Ridley game, and to forget about the S.A.C. game the coming Saturday. Consequent- ly the S.A.C. game, the important game played at home, was one of the hardest games any of us had ever played. However, the team cleared the S.A.C. hurdle with a 13-5 victory in a rough, hard struggle, and entered the home stretch out in front. The build-up of that last Week, and the pressure on every player to win, win, win, was probably impossible to prevent, but it was anything but healthy. VVhen we finally met Ridley at U.C.C. on November 2, we were far too keyed up to play above our heads as we had done all season, and consequently we lost our only game of the season and with it the Little Big Four cham- pionship. The general feeling among a great many people seems to be that, losing as we did against Ridley, the season was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 a flop. However, anyone who saw the team practising in the first Week will agree that from the point of view of improvement the season was a great success. We finished a close second in our quest for a championship, which is a most creditable performance for a team that wasn't ex- pected to stop any of its traditional rivals. We had no stars on the team to carry the rest of the players along on their merit. Thus the majority of credit for a grand season goes to the coach, Bernie by name, who moulded a first class team out of what was originally second class material. The team this year lto quote a well-known source!! was a group of friends who fitted together so successfully as a team that they combined to overcome five of their six opponents. We had more fun together this season than first teams have had for many years. There was all season long a spirit of playfulness and good-nature on the field. which was certainly an important factor in our success. All in all, the 1946 Bigside rugby season was definitely ROWDY-DOW! ! -T.W.L. and J.B.F. SCHOOL vs. UPPER CANADA COLLEGE At U.C.C., Saturday, October 19: Won 12-5 A light, hard-charging T.C.S. squad met an over-con- fident U.C.C. team on the Upper Canada field in the first Little Big Four game of this season and drove to a 12-5 victory. An early drive by Upper Canada was thwarted when a touchdown pass was dropped and from that point on T.C.S. took complete control of the game as they gained first downs repeatedly on bucks by Lawson and Bruce. In the closing minutes of the quarter passes to Conyers and Hyde put the ball on the U.C.C. thirty yard line, and Law- son made a beautiful run behind perfect interference for a touchdown. This was unconverted but gave the School a T4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5-0 lead. T.C.S. continued to press in the second quarter, and after several exchanges of kicks, Brewer kicked a single leaving the score at half time 6-0 in Trinity's favour. Upper Canada opened the second half with renewed vigour and held the ball well in the T.C.S. territory despite the School's repeated attempts to crash through their line. However, the Trinity squad was not to be denied for long, and they finally got a break when a long kick by Brewer was recovered by the School on U.C.C.'s fifteen yard line. The ball was then bucked to the Upper Canada five yard line from which Lawson drove through for his second touchdown and the School's eleventh point. Again the con- vert was not good due to holding on the T.C.S. line. U.C.C. once more put added drive in their play and began a pass- ing offensive. However, Bruce intercepted one of these passes at the fifty yard strip and ran the ball thirty yards to the U.C.C. twenty yard line. From here Brewer kicked a single to give Trinity a 12-0 lead. From this point on the game was wide open, U.C.C. taking to the air for repeated gains on long passing plays. Hyde intercepted one, but on gaining possession of the ball, U.C.C. recommenced their passing offensive, and finally went over for a touchdown which Pritchard scored. This left the final score 12-5 for T.C.S. For the U.C.C. squad, Pritchard, Rennie and Gossage were best, while the T.C.S. squad played so much as a unit that it would be impossible to pick out individual stars. T.C.S.-French, Lawson, Jarvis, Gaunt, Tessier, Conyers, Bruce, Armour, Brewer, Taylor, Hyde, Curtis, Rogers, McIntyre, Hall, Cox, Alley, Payne, Fennell, Pangman, Rickaby. U.C.C.-Gossage, O'Brian, Scott, Connolly, Rennie, Bachly, Rid- dell, Kilgour, Pritchard, Hewitt, Hogarth, Hadden, Bazos, Beatty, Colley, Grant, Murphy, Peters, Crerar, Robinson, Little, Cole, Cork, Wiegand, Stevenson, Cooper. .1 .... 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 75 SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At Port Hope, October 26: W'on 13-5 The first team continued its winning streak defeating St. Andrew's College 13-5 for its fifth victory and second straight Little Big Four triumph. Trinity had a slight edge throughout, mostly due to excellent work by the back- field who time after time broke through the opposing line for long gains. The School took the lead in the first few minutes when Brewer kicked a single after S.A.C. had been penalized fifteen yards for holding. A short St. Andrew's kick gave Trinity possession on the S.A.C. forty yard line and two successive penalties against St. Andrew's put the ball fifteen yards out. A well executed extension flicker play ended with Brewer crossing the line for a touchdown. which he converted. S.A.C. took the kick-off at their own twenty- five, but penalties drove them back and they were forced to kick from their goal-line. Brewer kicked another single to make the score 8-O. The play from this point to half- time see-sawed back and forth with neither team making much progress as whistle-happy referees handed out six- teen penalties in the first half. St. Andrew's received the kick-off in the second half and four first downs plus two Trinity penalties put the ball on the School's one yard line from which Middleton scored a touchdown which was not converted. A Trinity drive was halted on the S.A.C. thirty yard line but a bad snap put the team in possession again on the fifteen yard strip and Brewer tallied on a reverse for his second touch- down. The convert failed. Another Trinity drive was halted deep in the opposition's territory when S.A.C. re- covered a fumble. St. Andrew's then commenced a last minute drive and succeeded in carrying the ball to the School's twenty yard line. A determined Trinity line dug in and in three plays drove S.A.C. back five yards, and the game ended with the School victors by a 13-5 score. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Brewer, who scored all thirteen points, made many dazzling runs and several times his long kicks sailed over the heads of amazed St. Andrew's backs. He was ably supported by Lawson's powerful bucking and Tessier's fine tackling. The line, although outweighed, played well and were particularly good in breaking up pass plays. St. Andrew's displayed fine spirit with Smith and Middleton leading the attack. T.C.S.-Brewer, Jarvis, French, Lawson, Taylor, McIntyre, Hall, Payne, Rickaby, Curtis, Hyde, Tessier, Gaunt, Armour, Rogers, Carson, Alley, Cox, Fennell, Pangman. S.A.C.-Nold, Howson, Smith, Middleton, Chipman, Currie, Landreth, Martin, Schofield, Simpson, Little, McGregor, Shaver. Price, Barr, D. Crandall, Errington, J. Crandall, Taylor, Marshall. SCHOOL vs. B.R.C. At U.C.C., November 2: Lost 20-1 Bishop Ridley College continued where they left off in 1944 and once again won the Little Big Four champion- ship, defeating the School 20-1. The field was muddy and our players had a great deal of difficulty in bringing down the elusive Ridley half-backs. Trinity received the kick-off and drove into Ridley territory but an intercepted pass halted the attack. It started all over again but a fumbled snap was picked up by Court who ran the ball to the School twenty-five yard line. However, a Ridley pass was intercepted over the goal-line and the ball taken out to the ten yard line. A very nice run-back by Casselman started another Ridley attack and three successive first downs put them on the three yard line from where Gray went over on a quarter- back sneak for a touchdown which he converted. The School commenced a drive which carried us deep into Rid- ley territory and enabled Brewer to kick a single point. At half time the score was Ridley 6, T.C.S. 1. Ridley kicked off and after an exchange of kicks Brewer made a forty yard runback of a kick which he re- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 ceived behind the goal line. Lawson bucked for two first downs and Brewer kicked to the Ridley five yard line. Rid- ley took the offensive and capped a long march when a perfect pass from Perry put Gray in the clear for a touch- down which he converted. Ridley continued to press and Gray kicked two more rouges. Trinity took to the air but B.R.C. intercepted a pass and Gray skirted the short end for a touchdown from thirty yards out. Once more Ridley proved adept at pass defense when Frost intercepted a pass and only a beautiful runback by Lawson kept Ridley from notching another point. On the last play of the game Brewer ahnost broke away, but was brought down after making twenty-five yards, and the final whistle blew with Ridley victors by a 20-1 score. It has become a habit to say at the end of each write- up of a Ridley game that the score was not indicative of the play. However, in this game Ridley proved themselves definitely superior and deserved to win by the nineteen point margin they rolled up. The Trinity team was out- classed but fought hard with Lawson, Brewer, French and Tessier playing well. For Ridley, Gray was outstanding and received excellent support from Casselman and Fen- nell. T.C.S.-French, Lawson, Jarvis, Gaunt, Conyers, Bruce, Armour, Brewer, McIntyre, Hall, Hyde, Curtis, Rogers, Taylor, Carson, Tessier, Cox, Payne, Rickaby, Fennell, Pangman. B.R.C.-Stanley Bonguard, Fennell, Court, Dougan, Whitte- more, Kindy, Frost, Bourne, Perry, Cassehnan, Gray, Perry Cmi.l, Casselman lmi.J, Frey, Goldie, Stratton. 1-1l BIGSIDE HOUSE GAME Won by Brent 10-2, November 16 In the annual House Game this year the Brent House Bruisers emerged the victor after a close battle, the final score being 10-2. Both teams displayed a few unorthodox but quite effective plays, the best ground gainer being Brent's Ohio State shift end run. T8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Brent House kicked off due to Lawson's adeptness at chewing string, and the game got Lmderway. Referee Hodgetts in the garb of St. Nick managed to get out of the first tackle with only minor injuries. By this time the School pony had returned to the stable so Mr. Hodgetts had to stay on the field. Christmas cheer was so prevalent that Bethune gave Brent a present when Gaunt recovered a Bethune fumble on the Hrst play of the game and ran for a touchdown, unconverted. Bethune, still bewildered by the onslaught of this score received the kick and were unable to make yards, so Brent, in possession called on their D-19 shift which sent Lawson for thirty yards, fol- lowed by a nice run by Jarvis which put Brent on the Bethune one yard line, but Brent failed to score and Be- thune gained possession. Bruce bucked well for Bethune and slowly drove Brent back, but each time Brent had a chance they used their new play to good advantage. Near- ing the end of the first quarter Brewer kicked a point for Bethune, making the score 5-1 for the Bruisers at the end of the first quarter. Undaunted, Bethune again got in Brent territory and Brewer kicked another point. At this time Brent, driving for another major, completed a pass from Curtis to Lawson off a kick formation for a gain of twenty yards. The players themselves were no less surprised than the specta- tors at this remarkable feat. Thompson ii of Brent, near the end of the half, intercepted a Bethune pass and there were possibilities of scoring after Gaunt threw a long pass to Hyde. However, at the close of the first half the score remained 5-2. After the kick-off, Bethune held Brent in their own end of the field, and Taylor intercepted a Brent pass near centre field. But the next play Bethune fumbled and Brent carried the play into Bethune territory. Jarvis of Brent then made a long run which brought the ball to the one yard line from where Lawson bucked over for five points. The convert failed making the score 10-2. The TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 play stayed in the centre field for the remaining moments of the quarter. On Brent's Herby play, that tubby line- man was sent through the line quite frequently on plunges. and hiswriggling body was seen beaten to the groimd, only after great toil by the Bethunites. Bethune nearly scored following a long pass from Brewer to Taylor but Brent held, and on gaining possession drove back up the field. leaving the score 10-2, at the end of the game. Lawson and Jarvis starred for Brent not to mention the large middles who gained yards on bucks focca- sionallyl by their driving momentum. Hall, Brewer and Taylor were the best for the losers. Brent-Lawson, Jarvis, Gaunt, Curtis, McIntyre, Hyde, Alley, Thompson ii, Stratford, Drynan, Thompson iii, Payne, Rickaby, Boulden. Bethune-French, Brewer, Bruce, Taylor i, Conyers ii, Cox i, Campbell i, Carson, Newcomb, Armour, Pangman, Goering, Ensinck, Emery, Hall, Rogers i. MIDDLESIDE The Middleside Under 17 team started the football season by Winning their first three games this year. In the second round of the C.O.S.S.A. after such a promising start the team was beaten by greatly improved Peter- borough and Lindsay teams 23-10 and 28-8 respectively. The loss of both these games can largely be attributed to quite a lot of fumbling. Due to lack of time the team was forced to concede their second game to Oshawa. As this created a four way tie, sudden death semi-finals were played in which Middleside lost to Lindsay 20-6 in what was undoubtedly one of the better games of the year. Throughout the season Goodbody, Stratford, Nigel Thompson and Goering played exceptionally well. The Middleside over 17 team played only five games this year as they were limited to exhibition games. Of the five, they won one, tied one and lost three. Against Upper Canada Thirds the team had a very bad day on the defensive and were trounced 29-1. At Saint 80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Andrew's fumbles behind our line gave S.A.C. two touch- downs to win 21-6 in what was otherwise an even game. McPherson, Thompson ii, Ensinck and Brodeur i stood out consistently during the season on this team. The Middleside House Game was won by Bethune House 7-1. In the second half Bethune came from behind a single point lead, scored early in the game by Brent, to score a touchdown and convert it for six points. A single accounted for the other point. McPherson, Goodbody, and Ensinck were good for the victors while Thompson ii and Thompson iii stood out for Brent.

LITTLESIDE Since the beginning of the season Littleside has play- ed six games of which three were won and three lost. Early in the season they defeated Pickering 58-0 and Lake- field 16-6. The next game, against St. Andrew's, was Littleside's first loss, the score being 30-0, after a not- altogether one-sided game, for T.C.S. missed several scor- ing opportunities. In the two games with U.C.C., the School broke even losing the first 19-6 and winning the second 20-12. In the last game of the season Littleside lost to S.A.C. in a return game, the score being 13-5 for the Saints. Before the season closed Littleside played their annual House game in which Brent defeated Bethune 10-0. Fullerton got the touchdown and kicked singles for the other five points. The standouts on the Littleside team this year were Moffitt, Thompson v,Croll, Scowen, Hogarth, and Wood. Littleside B have played one game against Lakefield and were edged by a score of 6-5, in a very close and excit- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 81 ing game at the Grove. Luke was appointed Captain of the team while Gilley and Potter were Vice-Captains.

Distinction Cap The Colour Committee took great pleasure in award- ing a Distinction Cap to T. W. Lawson in recognition of his outstanding service to the football team this year. Law- son has played sixty minutes in every Little Big Four game during the past two seasons in the hardest offensive posi- tion on the team and has been at all times an outstanding ball-carrier.

We had three half first team colours who wished to play soccer again. McDowell was chosen Cap- tain and Hughes Vice-Captain and we began the task of making a side from a group of boys who had little but a love of the game and a determination to improve. We began badly for McDowell and Paterson ii were injured in the second practice of the season and Paterson is still in- jured as I write. Bad luck, Jerry. It became clear from our early practices and the first two games that we had a good goalkeeper in Barnes who from the first played with good judgment and a quick eye. Paterson i at centre half was energetic and constructive and it was obvious that Cox ii was going to be as good as his brothers someday. With McDowell he was always a threat when the play was near the opponents' goal. The problem was to get the ball there. Our first four starts were all easy victories for our opponents. We had entered a league composed of three Peterborough teams and we found ourselves playing against older and more experienced soccer players. But the whole Bigside squad was still keen and we took our eleven to '71 N Q Z -x FC ca 3 I .IOW 'JW .9 as!-I E Q 'N JB- 'JOIAB-L 'Q 'xxx 3 0 o je F 3 S CL Q. S 50 O 2' if 03.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD U.C.C. which had the makings of a good team. We lost- but it was a very close game. McDowell was back in the side and his leadership made a big difference. When Big- side beat the Masters it seemed certain the tide had turn- ed! Playing much better soccer we defeated St. Andrew's and won our remaining two league games. By the end of the season Butterfield and Wells were playing excellent soccer and our half line was dependable. Dame, greatly improved by constant effort, had ensured his place on the right wing and Hughes, on the left wing, at great personal inconvenience, was using his left foot and using it well. CNot one player on the whole Bigside squad was naturally left-footed!J. Sweny, always unselfish, had improved his passing to the point Where he was even getting shots on goal. There was still room for improve- ment in the kicking of our backs who often found it hard to clear the ball. Bogue's heading was good at times and Barton's and Harley's energy was much to be commended. But the fact remains our weakest spot was the backfxeld. At no time during the season did the interest fail and good sportsmanship was never absent. Both our opponents and ourselves enjoyed every game to the full. I offer my warmest thanks to McDowell and Hughes for their constant support and to all the boys who turned out so enthusiastically and helped to make a sound team by providing good competition. -E.R.B. SCHOOL vs. MASTERS At T.C.S., October 21: Won 2-1 In a thrilling game the School edged out the Masters 2-1. Early in the game the first team went ahead on a shot by Cox ii. The Masters pressed but the School de- fense stood firm and enabled Cox to score again to give the School a two goal lead. In the second half the Mas- ters, led by Mr. Key, managed to score on a hard shot 84 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD by Mr. Gwynne-Timothy. Play then became even with both sides failing to take advantage of several scoring opportunities. For the Masters Mr. Lewis played a steady game in goal. Mr. Knight played a magnificent defensive game and Mr. Bagley attacked strongly throughout. The School was greatly assisted by good defensive play on the part of the backs. It is rumoured that the star of the game was a Master called Kilroy. ' Masters-Lewis, Humble, Knight: Snelgrove ii, Rhodes, Morris: Sanborn, Snowdon, Bagley, Dening, Key, Gwynne-Timothy, Kilroy. School-Barnes, Barton, Bogueg Butterfield i, Bronfman, Wells: Hughes i, McDowell i, Cox ii, Sweny, Dame. T.C.S. vs. S.A.C. At T.C.S., October 26: Won 8-1 T.C.S. coasted to an easy victory over St. Andrew's in the teamls first major victory of the season. Early in the game Sweny scored for the School in a melee in the S.A.C. goal zone. A minute later McDowell shot one into the net and before the half was over Butterfield, Cox and McDowell each added a goal to make the score 5-0 at the interval. The early part of the second half was even, with both defenses clearing effectively, but T.C.S. soon took the advantage and McDowell, Cox and Hughes each scored to make the score 8-0. S.A.C. pressed and just before full time Opie scored on a pass from Macorra ii. For S.A.C. Edmonds was best on the attack while Anfossi cleared superbly on the defense. McDowell led the T.C.S. forwards while Barnes played well in the T.C.S. goal. T.C.S.-Barnes, Barton, Bogueg Butterfield i, Bronfman, Wells: Hughes i, Cox ii, McDowell i, Sweny, Dame. S.A.C.-McKree, Ashdown, Roberts, Crisson, Anfossi, Hannon?

Play was even at first and it was not until half way through the first half that McDowell beat Foster, who slipped while cover- ing the ball. The Cubs then attacked and Chambe scored on a pass from Downer. The School again pressed and Hughes counted on a difficult shot. Before the half end- ed Cox scored to give the School a 3-1 lead at half-time. Throughout the second half T.C.S. attacked strongly but good defensive work by Hutchinson and Gray, also several splendid saves by Foster, allowed only three more goals to be scored, two by Cox and one by Dame. The School team played well throughout with the half-backs starring both on attack and defence. T.C.S.-Barnes, Harley, Bogue, Butterfield i, Paterson i, Wells. Hughes. Cox ii, McDowell i, Sweny, Dame. Kawartha Cubs-Foster, Bradley, Hutchinson, Castle, Gray. Earl, Dolan, Wellock, Downer, Payne, Chambe. SCHOOL vs. KAWARTHA CUBS At Peterborough, November 16: Won 2-0 In a fine game T.C.S. eased out a two goal victory over a strong Peterborough team. Playing one of their best games of the season the School went ahead midway in the first period when Cox scored on a long shot. Both teams strove for the advantage but at half-time the score still remained 1-0 for T.C.S. On resumption of play T.C.S. took the ball to the Peterborough end and again Cox scored on a splendid shot. From this point the game was really close, both teams trying desperately to score but good de- fensive play by both teams kept the remainder of the game scoreless. Barnes in goal played a spectacular game gaining his first shutout while the rest of the team gave him good sup- port. Foster and Bradby were Peterborough's best. 86 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T.C.S.-Barnes, Barton, Bogue, Butterfield i, Paterson i, Wells, Prentice, Hughes, Cox ii, Sweny, Dame. Kawartha Cubs-E.

THE OXFORD CUP RACE The fiftieth annual Oxford Cup race, the oldest long distance cross-country race in Canada, was won this year by Cox i of Bethune House, closely followed by Wood i of Brent. Consisting of a 4.15 mile run over roads, ploughed fields, and many fences, the course was covered this year in 24 minutes 58.4 seconds. The course has been lengthen- ed in the last few years, and considering this, the time compared Very favourably with the record time of 22 minutes 32 seconds set by the late J. O. Combe in 1930. Although Bethune had the whining man, when the total points had been counted, Brent had only twenty-four 90 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD points against them, while Bethune had thirty-one pointsg and so Brent keeps the Oxford Cup for another year. The runners finished in the following order: 1 Cox i .......,,.......................,....,................... Bethune Wood i i........ ..... .............

Although only a few games have been played it is apparent that Mr. Bagley's team, defending champions, is the team to beat. .i-1.1 - Hockey Twenty-two boys journeyed to Oshawa for the first hockey practice which lasted for two hours. The first team is entered in a Junior B league this year, with St. Andrew's, U.T.S., U.C.C., and Pickering providing the op- position. With only two old Colours back the team is wide open, and competition is very keen. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 91 Basketball Basketball practices have begun, and under the guid- ance of Mr. Hodgetts and Mr. Rhodes over forty boys have been turning out in four squads which practice alternately. There will be two teams this year, Senior and Junior, but as yet it has not been decided if they are to enter leagues. Squash In preparation for the inter-house matches a school ladder has been posted with the Hrst five from each house to take part in the matches. Brewer has been appointed captain and Mr. Lewis has very kindly offered his services as an instructor. -C '7 li X9 . ,, WM!-0 Syvnmll .---. ,fri 1 1....+:...Q4Q ,.,, ,:,: . fi 'ZI7 ffV:.-f4.1..m:,11.f..f:.

The weather has been-for once-a definite feature of the past term. It is a very long time since the Rugby team has been able to play all of its games on mild, sunny days. It certainly adds a great deal to the game from the spectators' point of view-not to mention the players. Our congratulations to Wright, Payne, Chester, and Paterson for their good showing in the Oxford Cup race. The J.S. has not been so well represented for some time. Congratulations also to Panet, Croll, and Whitney for their excellent work in the New Boys' gym. competition. The Hallowe'en party went off very well indeed this year. The procession has now reached such proportions that it was necessary to hold it in the Classroom block this year. It seems to be the general opinion that the cos- tumes were about the best ever. Particular mention should be made of the imagination and ingenuity shown by many of the boys in inventing their own costumes. The famous TRAIN deserves special mention.

Over all this hangs the shadow of approach- ing examinations! THE GHOST Our house in Ottawa was built about forty years ago and I can see no reason why it should have been chosen to bethe habitation of a ghost. No one has been murdered in Rockcliffe, where it is situated, as far as I know. If anything sinister has taken place anywhere near the house I should be surprised. Of course our ghost is not a very terrifying spook, but merely mildly mischievous. I am, as far as I know, the only person who has seen him or spoken to him, but others have had mischief done to them by him. For example there is the case of my mother's jewelled bracelet. Thomas, for that is our ghost's name, had taken a liking to this bracelet and one night he removed it from her dressing-table. When I came back from school he confided in me and I told him about insurance. You see, the bracelet was insured and money had already been received from an insurance company. At first Thomas did not understand, but after a few lessons he caught on. As you can see Thomas is not very smart. One night Thomas said he had an idea. I was astonish- ed but he persisted and at last I said I believed him. He told me that he was going to hide the bracelet in the sofa where my grandfather sat to read his papers and in the morning I would find it. That way, he said, you may get a reward and your mother will have to give the insurance money back to the company. This seemed to strike him as funny, though I could see nothing worth laughing at. I agreed to his plan as it was the only way to recover the bracelet. The next morning I collected fifty cents as Thomas' plan had worked. v-4 537 Ll 'D O Z F 3 C 5 no 'Aem1uO 'A I rv 3 -N'-T W 55 I 20+ 325 Z? lfx.

Where the temperature is mild. But when the windows are opened We feel a sudden breeze Then the curtains start to blow and sail As if on a flying trapeze. We wake up at half-past twelve To find our feet out of bed. We pull them in as fast as we can And snuggle back into bed. -T. O'B. Cowan, Prep. Form. BRAZIL I first went to live in Brazil when I was two and a half months old and I have been there ever since. We have a very nice time at home. Sometimes a band of monkeys comes leaping by our house, swinging from limb to limb. They always try to steal our eggs. Those are just some of the beasts we have around! Last summer I spent some of my holidays on the Amazon. It is simply beautiful with wonderful trees and birds. Everything is so peaceful, only the noise of the 96 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD birds and beasts and the sound of the Amazon rolling on its course. Once in a while some locusts do come along and, when they come--THEY COME! The sun was very hot there and I got a good tan as I went around without a shirt on. I also got bitten by mosquitoes because there is a lot of still water which pro- vides good places for them to hatch their eggs. There is a small lake near our farm which produced a lot of mos- quitoes. To prevent this we put about half an inch of oil all over the eggs and this drowned them. I spent the rest of the summer in Sao Paulo. I think Brazil is a wonderful and peaceful country to live in. -C. A. Woolley, Form IIB. OUR LIGHTHOUSE SHELTER Outside the storm is roaring, Beating hard against the walls, The horns of ships are loudly groaning In harmony with the rain that falls. In harmony with the rain that falls. But inside, sheltered from thunder, Our candles are burning gay, In our lighthouse home, on a platform of stone, Where we stay through the stormy day. The storm may be quite rough indeed, And the thunder may roar and groan, But we need not fear in our lighthouse dear, Matter how much the storm may moan. We always welcome visitors Who pass by our cozy home, And keep them sheltered in our tall, old house, Our humble home, sweet home. In summer and spring we travel afar, Through woodland and on riverg But we always return to where we were born, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 97 By a fire where one need not shiver. Our old lighthouse shall be full of mirth, And never sad or forlorng We'll always remember this house of our birth. The house in which we were born. -R. J. Anderson, Form IA. 1 WRITE FOR THE RECORD Jake's trading post was very crowded one blustering, blizzardy, late autumn day, so crowded in fact, that old Jake himself was serving the multitude of half-breeds. Frenchmen and Indians. It was difficult to keep many of the half-drunk trappers in hand, but big George Kane was doing his utmost to control the mob. Old Jake was serving cheerfully enough, but when he stopped long enough for you to get a good look at him you could see that his face bore a haggard, Weary look. After a While the crowd died away as the hardy bush- men went back to their respective tents or cabins. It was only then that George Kane noticed the hopeless expression on the trader's face and he asked him what the reason was for his attitude. 'Tm acting like this , said Jake because all these hardy but lonely trappers are looking forward to their mail packet before they leave for their game trails, and the mail has been delivered to the Clear River Post about one hundred miles to the south. Don't worry . said George, I'll start tomorrow morn- ing for Clear River and I'll be back in a week with the mail . It would take too long to describe the physical torture and the hardships of that long trip through the wind and snow, but suffice to say that it would have killed a lesser man than Kane. Six days had gone by before Big George was seen driving his weary dogs down the trail to the post. Here's the packet , he panted as he threw a leather Satchel down on the counter. ' 98 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The old trader thankfully lifted the small satchel and breathlessly opened it with trembling fingers. To his sur- prise and amazement it did not contain the bundle of last minute mail for the company of trappers. Instead it en- closed only one small, thin letter. With weary and in- quiring fingers he rapidly tore the seal and opened the letter. It contained, on a small slip of paper, four dyna- mically commanding words. Despondently Jake read them WRITE FOR THE RECORD . He immediately drop- ped in a dead faint! -R. L. Martin, Form IIA1. ACCIDENTS HERE IN CANADA Do you know that during the war, more people were killed here at home than where the fighting took place? Well it's a fact. Somebody is going somewhere in a hurry. There is a red light and they think they can just make it. Nine times out of ten they do get across. But there is always that one chance of being hit by an automobile. Most accidents are caused by carelessness. If everybody would follow the simple rule of Safety First it would cut down the acci- dent toll by over sixty percent. I will tell you the story of a boy who was hit by a truck while riding his bicycle. It was a Saturday morning and two boys were riding their bicycles along a highway leading out of Montreal. They were going on a hike, and one of them was wearing on his back a heavy pack which contained some canned food, a loaf of bread, a tin box of matches, and some blan- kets. They were talking of where they would go and what they would do. They were just rounding a bend in the highway. Behind them was a large ice truck going about forty miles an hour. The truck was very close to the side of the road, and, as it rounded the bend, there was a TRINITY COLLEGE SCHGOL RECORD 99 terrific crash. One of the bicycles skidded along thc road with an awful scraping sound and then it crumpled up and lay there. The boy was stunned for a moment, but when he re- gained his senses he screamed. His left leg was horribly twisted and he knew it was broken. His right leg was numb, and he was bleeding all over from minor cuts. There was also a bad gash on his left leg. He was taken to a hospital and patched up. But for the rest of his life one leg would be nearly two inches shorter than the other. The trouble is that most people think that the only person who can be hurt is the other fellow. If that boy had not had his back protected he would have been killed. I know how all that felt for, you see. that person was myself. --R. A. O. Brown, IIA1. A DUCK HUNT How many of you have ever been duck shooting? Well, if you have, you are lucky and if you haven't, you are really missing something. I shall attempt to describe a shoot we had. It was late autumn and there was a strong wind knif- ing in from the west. My father, my brother, and I were huddled in a blind made of canvas with dried marsh grass sewn to it, in a pond covered with wild rice. Inci- dentally, ducks love to feed on wild rice. We stared glumly out at the decoys in front of us. It was six o'clock and they should be coming by now. Suddenly Dad whis- pered to us to freeze . A small 'bunch of blue bills were circling ready to come into our decoys. They sur- veyed the scene, decided it was safe and glided in to land about thirty yards away. We slowly rose. put our shot- guns over the top of the blind and then the barrage began. We got about seven and the rest Uscooted off . They kept 100 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD coming into us all morning until about twelve o'clock and then they stopped. We rolled up our blind, put the de- coys, the ducks we had shot, and our Golden Labrador er into the bow of the boat and headed back for It had been a fine shoot. We had a nice bag of mal- lards, teal, blue bills, blacks and a Wood duck that'Dad had shot. 1 What more could you want! -S. E. Woods, Form IIB. ATHLETICS Rugby Having started out the season with only one Old Colour and a squad of very inexperienced players, the rugby team can look back on the season with the satisfac- whic comes from a job well done. The team showed steady-Mlprovement both in skill and in team-play with 'Sch successive game. It is unfortunate that our captain should have been prevented by illness from playing in the last game-but that is all in the luck of the game.

Ridley's passing attack was a feature of the game and T.C.S., with their attack rather blunted by the loss of TRINITY COLLEGTI SCHOOL RECORD 103 their captain and star bucker-passer-kicker Hoffmann. showed considerable skill and determination in their de- fensive work as well as some good spurts on the attack. The tackling of both teams was excellent. The School opened up the scoring with an unconver touchdown on a reverse buck by McRae. They also kicked for a rouge later in the same quarter. A forward pass brought Ridley a touchdown towards the end of the first quarter and the convert was successful. The second quar- ter saw both teams striving for a break and the half ended with no further score. In the third quarter Ridley put on considerable pres- sure and scored a converted touchdown, on a T.C.S. fumble behind their own goal. A good pass attack brought Ridley another touch and convert towards the end of the quar- ter. The last quarter saw a strong rally by the School which took them deep into Ridley territory on se eral occasions, but they failed to score. The final sco wa 18-6 in favour of Ridley.

The House Games The three games of the inter-house series provided some of the best football we have seen around the J .S. for several years. Rigby under their captain Hoffmann pro- duced a modified version of American football which proved to be very effective while Orchard stuck to more conventional football under their captain Ketchum. The blocking of both teams was outstanding. The first game was won by Rigby by a 7-6 score. Hoffmann scored a converted touchdown for Rigby and McRae did the same for Orchard. Late in the third quar- ter Hoffmann kicked the winning rouge for Rigby. -8 104 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In the second game Orchard eked out a last minute victory by a score of 11-10 after a very even and hard- fought game. Bruce accounted for Orchard's two touch- downs, one of which was converted, while Hoffmann did the same for Rigby. The third game was played after a day's rest. This game was a hard-fought as the other two in spite of the score. Rigby got off to a fast start with two touchdowns early in the game. Orchard came back strongly with a touchdown by McRae and another by Bruce neither of which was converted. At half time it looked like any- body's ball-game. Rigby put on strong pressure in the second half and Hoffmann scored a touchdown on a long run which was not converted. Shortly afterwards a pass to Southam brought another touchdown which was con- verted. The last play of the game saw another touchdown for Rigby with Hoffmann going over behind a stone-wall of blockers. A forward pass to Southam completed the convert. Final score 26-10 in favour of Rigby. Rigby4Hoffmann QCapt.J, Southam i, Pitt, Wright, Muntz, Clark, Weicker, Robertson, Walrath, Symons, Brodeur, Oatway, Osler i.

T The Record is publifbed :ix time: .1 year, in tbe months of October, December, V February, April, May and Iuly. Authorized as Second Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa. EDITORIAL The Record is fifty years old. Begun in 1898 and containing only eight pages, the School magazine has de- veloped and flourished since then until it has attained its present size of around 600 pages a year. Through all these years and all the numerous changes it has undergone the Record has established and maintained a name for it- self which to-day holds its own with the best of the English public school publications. This is a reputation of which we are justly proud and which all boys should strive to keep and make even better. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Record has come a long way since its rather un- pretentious beginning half a century ago. An actual his- tory of it will be found elsewhere in this issue. However. several points are worth repeating. One is the fact that the boys gradually took over the running of the magazine until to-day there are only two masters that have anything to do with its organization. With the students doing the majority of the work as they are now, it has become much more of a School magazine than it was when the masters produced it. Also, the part played by the Old Boys cannot be over-emphasized. It is almost entirely through their support and help that the Record has become so well-known throughout the world. The very first editorial pointed out that the Record was published for the Old Boys as well as for the School and this idea holds true to-day. The interest taken by the Old Boys inthe School and all its activities certainly merits the work done in publishing such a maga- zine as ours. There is no doubt that the Record, during its lifetime, has been improved many times, yet to call it anywhere near perfect would be ridiculous. The Record has many faults -all of which are usually pointed out most vociferously after an issue is published. Some of these rantings of the student body are justified, some are merely useless and ill- founded criticisms of minor importance. It is true that the majority of the boys have little or nothing to do with the Record and thus they naturally feel remote from it. The literary section is really the only one for which all boys have a chance to write. Yet if more boys took an interest ii: this section and made an effort to Write something-not just an English assignment-it is certain that the calibre would be better. Except for contributions, the Record is done entirely by the staff. This is a regrettable fault, yet one about which little can be done as it would be impossible to put out the Record with any degree of efficiency if the staff were not limited to a very few. With this in mind, and also realizing that there are many useful criticisms TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 offered which would improve the Record, we are going to begin a new department in the magazine in which letters to the Editor will be published. All letters, of course, may not be printed, but those containing sound and helpful ideas and complaints lwe would even accept a compliment now and thenll will certainly be brought to the attention of the readers. This section need not be confined to the School. Letters from any Old Boys will also be welcomed. Many other sections of the Record have been criticized, and while it is impossible to discuss them all here, we think that through the medium of letters to the editor, they can not only be brought to our notice but to that of the readers as well. The editorial page-which, incidentally, is probably the most criticized of all sections in the Record-need not be left solely to the Editor. If anyone, including those who so loudly criticize it, has something worth while writing about, he will certainly be given space to say what he wants. In fact, other editorials would be welcome providing they are not merely efforts to retaliate against some person or group of people who have in some way slighted the author. As many as three or four editorials would be willingly printed if they were available and through these, again, more peo- ple could contribute to the Record. Under an impressive new heading, and an energetic new editor, the Feature section, which has spluttered along feebly for the past few years, has definitely come to life. We hope future editors will continue to make this section a permanent fixture, for from it can arise many interest- ing and amusing articles. A special new feature will be started in the next issue which should provide a great deal of entertainment and also a wide scope for the writer. May the Record continue to flourish in the future as successfully as it has during its first fifty years of publica- tion. -J.B.F. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD , g- ., 4 M. ,f X- .X I l ' W if f ffl l We-555 A f as IQ im X H4919 ,U-,swf -in A mm U A ...railing . rlfm-.5.gi3Lfi'.

Carol Service The annual Carol Service was held on Sunday, Decem- ber 15, with many visitors and Old Boys present to hear what proved to be an excellent and satisfying performance by the School Choir. The Service was introduced by the singing of Silent Night in the Chapel lobby and Adeste Fideles as the pro- cessional hymn, the School joining lustily in the latter. The special music opened with Bachs' Chorale Break Forth O Beauteous Heavenly Light followed by the Carol Joseph and the Angel . These two numbers were in direct and pleasing contrast, the Chorale slow with sustain- ed tone and intricate harmony, the organ assisting in build- ing up gradually to the climax. The very good tonal balance of the choir was most noticeable in this. Shepherds, Shake Off Your Drowsy Sleep , was a bright and cheerful carol followed by the Junior Choristers singing Our Brother is TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 Born . They excelled in this with good tone and clear diction especially in the chorus. A new carol introduced this year was Good people, give ear , a fine example of an old English Traditional composition, the words quaintly expressed. The Solos in Good King Wenceslas were very creditably sung by Cur- tis as the King and Wilding as the Page, the latter's treble voice being particularly good. Twas in the Moon of Win- tertime' lAndersonl, a 16th. Century Huron Indian Carol, is an established favorite, with its appealing three-part un- accompanied middle section. Then followed The Carol of the Ox and the Ass , an old Carol in a modern and rather difficult setting, a fine example of unusual harmonies and varied expression. Ding-Dong Merrily on High was sung with evident enjoyment by the Choir and was much appreciated by the congregation. Handel's And the Glory of the Lord from The Messiah was very good indeed, with the Choir per- forming faultlessly. This item concluded the special music in a beautiful' service which in the opinion of all those present was the best Carol service ever presented at the School. The Choir, and especially Mr. Cohu as organist and Choir master, was responsible for this, as they had attained a very high standard of perfection. The traditional nine lessons were well read by the chosen representatives from each of the forms in the Senior School, one from the Junior School and the Choir, continuing with readings by the Head Sacristan, the Head Prefect, and the Headmaster. The complete programme was as follows: Processional Hymn-Adeste Fideles. Chorale, Bach- Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light . lst Reading-Genesis 12: 1-4. CPitt, J.S.J Choir- Joseph and the Angel . 2nd Reading-Isaiah 60: 1-9. Bovey CChoirJ. Hymn No. 738- Unto Us A Boy Is Born . 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3rd Reading--Isaiah 11: 1-9.

Offeratory Hymn No. 7 7- Hark! the Herald Angels Sing . Prayers. The Blessing. Recessional Hymn No. 76- While Shepherds Watched . On December 8, the chaplain gave a short sermon tell- ing of the origin of carols. He mentioned the interesting fact that many carols had their beginning in old pagan dances and religious rituals. Travelling minstrels often made them up spontaneously, and they were songs of the people. which is probably the reason for their popularity. Old drinking songs as well as songs telling us of the life of Christ had their place. Mr. Bagley finished by pointing out how many good a.ccounts of ancient times are obtained from carols and how useful they have been. i.i1l... -11 TRJNITX' COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 Epiphany On Sunday, January 12, the Rev. E. R. Bagley preach- ed his first sermon of 1947, choosing as his text the first verse of the sixtieth chapter of Isaiah, Arise, shine for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee . He illustrated this with the story of the three wise men, who had seen a new constellation in the heavens which gave forth a new light. This, he said, leads us to man's idea of God, which is usually a conception of some- thing great, omniscient and omnipotent. Therefore God made himself a little child, and came down to earth from heaven to give us a new light, the light of truth, and to teach us to worship him not with awe but with a true understanding of the principles of Christianity. Jesus was divine because he was perfectly human, and to-day humanity is far below the example set us in Jesus Christ. We must therefore strive to spread the under- standing of Christianity throughout the world, and let the light of the truth shine on all. That is the Spirit of Epiphany. On the Sunday next before Advent, the Rev. E. R. Bagley spoke in Chapel. He introduced his theme by say- ing that, although the old testament was extremely na- tional, and the new testament extremely individual, there was no conflict between the two. He told us that the prophets had got closer and closer to the idea of the in- dividual and then quoted several passages from the new testament to show how Christianity combined these two ideas. The Chaplain then pointed out that Christ had come to the Jews at a time when they were the only people who had preserved their nationality despite the influence of the Roman Empire. After the invasions of the barbarians. nationalism flourished under Christianity. Christianity brought out the finer characteristics of both the nation 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and the individual, and the order Go and preach the gos- pel to every creature , now takes on a new meaning. Surely the Eastern nations as well as the Western, the black peoples as well as the white, deserve the advantages of Christianity. And so, Mr Bagley finished by pointing out that the duty of every Christian is to do his small part in the spreading of the Gospel. Visit of The Rev. Harding Priest On Sunday, January 25, the School was honoured to hear an address by the Rev. Harding Priest, associate sec- retary of the Board of Religious Education in Canada. He took for his text an excerpt from the 2nd Book of the 4th Chapter of Exodus, What have you got in your hand? This is the question that God asked Moses in the wilderness, and is the one which is daily put before us. Youth controls the future. and this is a trust which should not be taken lightly. Our lives, said Mr. Priest, are not toys but valuable tools, given us by God to be used pro- perly. He pointed out that in this life some of us are given great power. but that few of these can keep their sense of balance when they feel the reins of power in their hands. If we misuse this privilege of leadership given us by God, we are betraying His trust. Mr. Priest ended by saying that we must prepare our- selves to meet the problems of the world, for either we con- quer them, or they will conquer us. The Headmaster On Sunday, February 2 tSeptuagisima Sundayl, the Headmaster read the first of a series of short talks given by Professor C. S. Lewis of Oxford University. Mr. Ket- chum pointed out that during the early years of his life Mr. Lewis had been an atheist, but that he has recently TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q become one of the greatest Christian Apologists in Eng- land. He delivered his series of talks during the height of England's troubles in the last few years. and they created a great deal of interest. This first talk contained two main points. One, that nearly everyone, though not always ready to admit it, tries to adhere to a common law or to standards of behavior. These he called the Laws of Nature, simply because it is only human to try to live up to them. Secondly, he said that people often don't come up to these standards, not because they don't believe in them, but because they haven't got the strength of character, or whatever we like to call it, to live up to their own set code of behavior. His argument was that this must be true, or why would we bother to apologise for things we did or did not do? The author's conclusion was that the only way we can live up to our own moral code is to practise the principles of Christianity.

Gifts to the School A group of Old Boys, all friends of Bill Strong who was killed in the Air Force, have given a beautiful skiing trophy to the School in his memory, and have instituted a fund which will provide for the annual award of an in- dividual trophy. Mention is made of this elsewhere. 8 8 O O O Mrs. H. Y.

Mention is made of this elsewhere. I 1 8 i O W. H. Broughall has given an historic map to the School. It was the German Intelligence Staff's map of north-western Europe showing the disposition of the British and Canadian Forces, according to their information, just before the surrender. 5 8 Il if if Mr. Norman Dalley has made another generous gift of books on the Canadian North to the School library. 12 TRIMTY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD Mrs. Victor Spencer has made a permanent loan to the School of her large and valuable collection of plays, and books on the theatre.

Russel has given the School some old T.C.S. photographs of twenty years ago. O fl I l if V Norman Seagram has presented a much needed and appreciated gift of two dozen selected hockey sticks to the First team. THE BILL STRONG MEMORIAL TROPIIY Over fifty friends of Bill Strong have given a magni- ficent trophy to the School in his memory. As Bill was one of our most skilful and enthusiastic skiers, the Chal- lenge Trophy will be awarded annually to the best skier in the School, selected on the basis of a competition. The contributors have also given a fund to the School, the in- terest from which will provide an individual trophy every vear. Bill Strong was at T.C.S. from 1939 until 19423 he was a Senior and a member of the first football team and of the ski team. In September, 1942, he entered McGill but left in February, 1943, to enlist in the A.ir Force. On September 6, 1944. he was instantly killed when his air- craft crashed near Montebello, P.Q. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 We are indeed proud to have this trophy in Bill's memory, and all his many friends are grateful to Jim Thompson for the part he played in organizing this fitting memorial. Jim was Captain of the Ski Team of 1942 and one of Bill's closest friends. The following made contributions to the fund in memory of Bill:- C. Patch, J. B. I. Sutherland, D. M. Culver, D. M. Blaik- lock, R. I. Birks, B. Svenningson, J. R. LeMesurier, H. War- burton, P. C. Landry, J. M. Walker, D. L. Common, D. W. Morgan, P. A. Turcot, The Rev. E. M. Dann, R. D. Hume. W. G. Mathers, E. P.

Russel of Montreal and her sons Bruce C29-'37J and Keith C34-'39l have endowed a prize at the School in memory of Dunbar Russel. It is to be a football given every year to the most promising boy on Littlesideg the first award will be made for the year 1946. Hugh Dunbar Sutherland Russel came to the School in September, 1931 and left in June, 1934. In his final year he was in the V McGill Form and played on Bigside Football, Bigside Hockey and Middleside Cricket. He was an exceptionally good boxer and Won the Bradburn Cup. Entering McGill he studied engineering, taking a year of practical experience in British Columbia. He enlisted in 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Navy in 1940 and was posted to Royal Roads with the first class. In May, 1942, he volunteered for submarine duty and after a course in England he was posted to the eastern Mediterranean as Sub-Lieutenant on H.M. Sub- marine Traveller . On December 12, 1942, his ship was reported missing and nothing has been heard of the crew since then. We are proud to have this prize in memory of such a gallant officer and gentleman. RHODES SCHOLAR It was announced in December that James A. Pater- son U41-'43l had been chosen a Rhodes Scholar from the Province of Quebec, and the news thrilled all his friends. We can think of only two other T.C.S. boys who have won this high honour, Chris Eberts C26-'29l and Stephen Cart- wright l'20-'26l. It was a particularly close race as there were some four hundred candidates for the two Scholar- ships from the province and we are told that many of them had exceptionally high recommendations. One Scholar- ship nearly always goes to a French-Canadian. At T.C.S. Jim showed great promise in his workg he planned his studies with care, he was most conscientious in prosecuting his plan, and he brought understanding and a vivid interest into all discussions. He Won first class honours in all his Middle School subjects with the excep- tion of French, in which he obtained a second, and he stood second in the competition for entry to the Naval College among some sixty successful candidates. In debating he was a natural leader. both on the floor of the House and in Committee, he was elected President of the Political Science Club and he showed unusual skill in running the meetings and in the papers and briefs which he presented: he was a capable librarian and a most helpful member of the staff of The Record . He also TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 edited the Fifth Form Magazine . He was appointed a Senior in his second year. At McGill, Paterson has continued his good work. Last spring he obtained first class standing in the second year honours course in economics and political science: he is a member of the Political Science Club. the Philosophical Club, the Political Economy Club and the Liberal Club. He was recently elected representative for the faculty of Arts and Science on the Students' Council and Chairman of the McGill Civil Liberties Union. He will go into residence at Oxford next October. The School congratulates Paterson and wishes him every success. Christmas Dinner and Entertainment A sudden hush fell over the throng seated at the gaily decorated tables in the great hall. The trumpets blared forth their stirring fanfare. at the end of which the herald Stepped forward and read the proclamation of the feast. A colourful procession then entered the hall. First came the page, then the three cooks carrying platters on which was an immense boar's-head, a golden-brown turkey and a steaming plum pudding. Behind the cooks came two stalwart youths bearing the Yule log and last but not least, the jester. It was then that the choir arose on the balcony at the back of the hall and gave a beautiful rendition of three of the School's favourite carols Ding Dong Merrily on High , Good King Wenceslas , and The First Noel . The effect of these much loved carols was increased by the fact that each Choir Boy carried a lighted candle, which stood out like shining stars in the dimly-lighted hall. Some time later when all had satisfied their appetites on one of the tastiest Christmas dinners ever eaten at School, the Headmaster called on Mrs. Kirkpatrick, the 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD President of the T.C.S. Ladies' Guild, Toronto Branch, to present the following athletic cups: The Oxford Cup won by Cox i. The Cup for the most valuable player on Bigside Rugby won by Lawson i. The Bigside Rugby House Cup won by Brent House. The Bigside Soccer House Cup won by Bethune House. The Middleside Rugby House Cup won by Bethune House. The Littleside Rugby House Cup won by Brent House. The guests and boys then moved to the gym. where at 7.45 commenced the best Christmas entertainment that has been put on here for many years. The first number Rory Aforesaid was a comedy in one act produced by the T.C.S. Dramatic Society. It starred Peter Elliot as the slightly deaf judge, Campbell iii as the wily shepherd, Rory, Taylor i as the lawyer, Lawson i as MacCallum, Kent New- comb as Mrs. MacLean and Ronald Watts as the court officer. The scene for this excellent farce was set in a Scottish court-house and the accuser Mr. MacCallum be- comes slightly confused in court proceedings. The next number was an excellent rendition of Negro Spirituals sung by Butterfield i fwho also played the guitar accompani- mentl Payne, Lawson i. Taylor i, Newcomb, and Stewart. The singers appeared as silhouettes against a deep blue background and the number was fittingly entitled Fantasy in Blue . In the next number which brought a great many laughs. the silhouettes of Doctors dePencier and Berming- ham performed various operations on Luxton. Next came a light satire on The Masters' Common Room which, need- less to say, put the audience in fits. As the curtain arose on the next number Too Dense in the Dark the stage was completely dark, but the piercing voices of Butterfield and Lawson i soon wrung almost continual laughter from the audience for the next five minutes. Last came the Bigside show and as usual it was the main attraction of the even- ing. After seeing this performance we think Harry Hyde TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 has a great future in opera, and it surprises us that the beautiful chorus have not yet surpassed the Rockettes in fame. The show was built around the song Rhythm in My Nursery Rhymes . The original and novel arrange- ments of well-known nursery rhymes were very humorous. 'I'he dinner and entertainment will remain as a happy memory with all who attended them. 1. RORY AFORESAIDH: T. W. Lawson, J. R. Woods, G. R. Campbell, G. B. Taylor, J. P. Elliott, W. K. Newcomb. 2.

A On Saturday evening, December 7, the first debate of the School year was held in the Hall. The motion was: Resolved that co-operation has done more for the world than competition . McDowell opened the debate for the government saying that the achievement of the modern world are due to co-operationg he used the Roman Catholic Church in the Middle Ages as an example of the failure of competition and the later success of co-operation. Hyde, opening for the opposition, pointed out that our system of government would be a complete failure were it not for the element of competition. Payne expanded McDowell's argument, and told us that, were it not for co-operation, no atomic bomb would have been produced. Watts, the second opposition speaker, refuted McDowe1l's arguments on the Roman Catholic Church, saying that it was com- petition which had finally brought unity to this church. and then went on expanding this idea. Campbell iii sum- med up the government's point of view, saying that sports such as football and hockey could not be played were it not for co-operation, and he was followed by Campbell i who closed the case for the opposition by summing up their ideas and refuting some points of the government. After a rebuttal by McDowell the judges retired and several speeches were made from the floor. The house moved in favour of the government by a count of 37-28, while the judges' verdict was in favour of the opposition. This de- bate was quite good considering the short notice which the participants had received, and the attendance was unex- pectedly large in view of approaching examinations. 5, 444 .sgiiasii 4 gl 1 1 I I 1 -c 1 1 i l I TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 On January 21, the second debate of the year was held with a team representing the Sixth Form for the Affirma- tive and one representing the Fifth for the Negative. The motion before the house was Resolved that the Fair Sex should not use cosmetics . Newcomb, first speaker for the Affirmative stressed the fact that cosmetics were a deception and furthermore could not compare with true unadorned beauty. His points were well put and witty. Alley, first speaker for the Negative, putting his case for- ward very well, declared that the misuse of cosmetics by some, was no reason for abolishing them, and likened cos- metics to furniture which adds to the atmosphere of a house. Prentice for the Affirmative spoke of the harm caused by some of these cosmetics, while Wright i, second speaker for the Negative showed how different cosmetics may be used to advantage, their production providing a great field for employment. Taylor i, replying for the Affirmative, emphasized the deception in the use of cos- metics and deplored their use to replace the healthy out- door life which leads to true beauty. Fulford, last speaker for the Negative came back in fast order with some very witty and effective rebuttals. He also declared that the face was made for utility so that attempts to beautify it were quite effective and helped to give girls self-confidence. In closing he appealed to th house to consider the effect of cosmetics on their friends of the fair sex. Newcomb then replied with the rebuttal for the Affirmative, declar- ing that if cosmetics were not abolished many people would always misuse it, and in closing he pointed out that a house was man-made and needed furnishing but God gave the human being natural beauty. Several good speeches were then made from the floor, after which a division of the house was made. resulting in a 52-16 victory for the Nega- tive. The judges gave the verdict to the Negative also. In summing up they said that both sides had debated very well and declared that it had been a very witty and en- joyable debate. In all it was one of the best debates here in recent years. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ,ga 41-sh Sv 5 4 THE RECORD On February 26, 1898, a thin, red-covered magazine en- titled The Record was first printed under the editorship of Mr. E. M. Watson, a master of the School at the time. In its editorial we find these Words: As the name implies it will be a Record of the Schoolg not only of all that takes place within her walls and playground, but of the doings and careers of that ever increasing body, who are just as much a part of the School, the Old Boys . Except for the addition of literary efforts of the boys, those very words are applicable to-day, in this, the fiftieth volume of the Record. For these fifty volumes it has been fulfilling that purpose. Earlier. about 1892, there had been another T.C.S. magazine, the Red and Black. Published at irregular in- tervals it had died out when its editors, L. M. f Shadow l Lyon and C. S. Wilkie left the School several years later, though in one respect it did make history, by reporting two different School fires in the same issue. The Record was originally intended to be published six times a year but in 1910 it was reduced to three. While the School was at Woodstock in 1928-29, the Record under- went a complete change. For the first time literary con- tributions in the form of stories, essays, poems and even a page of jokes and puzzles, were included. During this TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 period it appeared fortnightly. but with the return to Port Hope it reverted to the old system of publication once each term, though the inclusion of poems and stories writ- ten by the boys remained. In 1933 it reverted to the original plan calling for six issues a year, and then in 1936. after a contest, the present cover was decided upon. At first the Record was strictly a bulletin about School news, games of the teams, and Old Boys' Notes, but by the time of this 1936 issue it possessed much the same form as our present magazine, incorporating a School calendar, editorials, School News, Chapel Notes, literary contribu- tions in the form of stories, essays and poems, to which the humorous Off the Record section was added in 1938. sports news consisting of write-ups of various games play- ed by School teams, and the Old Boys' Notes. Added to this is the Junior School section first started in 1916 which is really a smaller edition of the Record in itself. The num- ber and quality of photographs has increased tremendously since the pictures of Dr. Bethune iHeadmaster at the timel and of A. Lampman lan Old Boyl were proudly presented in the second volume as the first cuts to appear in the School magazine. To-day the Record also gives a pictorial view of our School life. In size and content too, the Record has grown until now it is at least six times as big as the thin original copies of eight pages. One issue of the Record is worthy of particular note. In 1940, on the occasion of the School's 75th Anniversary a special number of the Record was printed packed with pictures of the School at different times, and describing various phases of School life. In this copy were many stories of the history of the School, recollections by the different Headmasters and descriptions of present-day life at T.C.S. - As the Record grew, more and more responsibility was handed over to the boys themselves. In the early issues most of the organizing had been done by a group of mas- ters assisted by a few boys. Gradually this procedure 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD was reversed and in 1933 Reid became the first boy to be appointed Editor-in-Chief and to-day it is mainly produced by the boys with a master acting as adviser. The boy acting as editor-in-chief has the trying task of writing editorials as well as chasing after his assistants for most of the material. He has several assistant editors looking after the Sports, Literary, School News and Feature Departments. These boys, chosen on a basis of experience as reporters, look after certain material themselves and organize the work of their assistants. Besides these, there is a boy acting as Business Manager who is in charge of the ad- vertising. After the various items have been revised by the individual editors and then by the editor-in-chief, they are further checked by the advisory master and the Head- master. For the Junior School section, the material is sent in by the Principal. After gathering items of interest concerning the Old Boys. the Headmaster and the Secre- tary of the Old Boys' Association put the Old Boys' Notes together. ' The Record has become an integral part of T.C.S. life as it depicts our joyous days at School and at the same time gives boys the interesting experience of experiment- ing with journalism. essR. L. Watts, Form VIA. LADDY It was a lazy, spring day and as I sat in spare my mind began to wander. H2 Oiwaterg ah, for the lake this summer! My gaze turned to the campus and as I was thus occupied, a figure loomed up beside me and a voice rang out. Now stop this fooling and settle .... the sentence re- mained unfinished: for through the window beside me sprang a tawny, brown body. and catlike landed in the aisle. throwing the study into confusion. I had had my first glimpse of Laddy. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 Laddy is a big, reddish-brown setter. He is of Irish descent fno, he doesn't talk blarneyj, and during the war became a mascot of the soldiers in Debert army camp in Nova Scotia. No doubt on account of some infringement of the rules, Laddy acquired a dislike for K.P., and was given by an army official to Mr. Ketchum. Laddy not only replaced the dog formerly belonging to the Headmaster, but has carried out his duties as mas- cot of the School in full. At T.C.S. he soon found out ipos- sibly through his commando trainingl that the ground floor Windows of the classroom block made wonderful obstacles. However, he discovered that once in, it was not so easy to get out, and worse still, he had to listen to some human being drone on for forty minutes about simply nothing as far as he could see. So he gave up this practice and now only joins in the extra-curricular activities of the School. He has made friends with nearly everybody in the School and his fame has spread all over the Dominion and even to Bermuda. Once Laddy was lost for two days. After searching everywhere the doorman at the movie revealed that he had tried insistently for two nights to get in Without a ticket. The feature being played was Lassie Come Home . Laddy was for a long time chief mode of transportation for young Nicki Ketchum, that is, until the latter began to drive his own car at age three! We feel that Laddy has added much happiness to this little community, and that he deserves a prominent niche in the T.C.S. hall of fame. --D. A. Campbell, Form VIB. 1- IN MEMORIAMH On looking around this term, we notice the passing of a familiar face. Actually, this old friend left us at the end of last term, but we did not feel the absence until this year. As with all that leave us, it has been replaced, but 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD it is rapidly sinking into the oblivion of 1946 while its younger counterpart grows up with 1947. No more will generations of T.C.S. boys recall first the tireless, young face, later. the weary but not beaten look of experience. No more will teams on the playing field stop to stare, nor pupils in the classrooms gaze out the window in amazement at the indomitable Batmobile . Many and varied stories can be heard around School about the vintage of Major Batt's former car. In reality, how- ever, it was a 1932, six cylinder, Willys-Knight, and one of the best cars built in its day. Just before its recent sale to the Port Hope police force, it was still capable of 65 miles per hour, averaging about 23 miles to a gallon of gas. Its speedometer had clicked over the 100,000 mile mark, and its five, good tires had felt the roads of England, France, Germany and Belgium. ' The old car was usually to be seen in front of the class- room block and thus bore the brunt of many a side-swipe. As a result, Major Batt is careful to keep his new Plymouth hidden away. The other day a suggestion that the plane in the gym. be replaced by the Batmobi1e was overheard. In spite of all this, we know that the old car is not yet dead, and we regret that this sad event brings to an end an era in the history of T.C.S. -J. A. Powell, Form VIA. BASKETBALL AT T.C.S. In comparison with hockey, cricket, and football, bas- ketball is relatively new here but it now ranks with the major T.C.S. sports in popularity. Early records show that the first T.C.S. basketball team played home and home games with Peterborough Y.M.C.A. as far back as 1912. Originally, basketball was introduced here by Mr. Stirling, Physical Director at the time. as a sport for the off-seasons between football and hockey, and hockey and cricket. Dennistoun was captain of the team. Most of the boys A CHARLES F. W. BURNS C21-'ZSJ Chairman of the War Nlemorial Chapel Fund Committee. J. A.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 were new at the game and though they lost their two games 39-33, and 31-25, great improvement was shown. For several years basketball hung on at T.C.S. and then fell into obscurity for eighteen years. The sport was revived again in 1934 under the coach- ing of Mr. Fourt. Games were played with neighbouring high schools, Pickering and St. Mark's. Led by Vaughn. the captain, who scored 178 points in the season, the team won six out of thirteen games played. Basketball was made a half First team colour sport, but in general the quality of the teams was poor. Then, in 1937, Mr. Dixon came to the team as coach to exert his energy in building it up. He found the players themselves enthusiastic, but there was little support from the School. In 1938, the first Junior team was formed, an important step in building up basketball at T.C.S. for it provided material for future senior teams, thus eliminating the necessity of starting from scratch to build a senior team. We have never had an outstanding Junior team but they have paid dividends, as shown the following year when the First team won nine games, including the last five in a row, and lost only three, all by close margins. Because of the team's stirling record and the popularity it aroused in the School, basketball was made a full First team colour sport. p Unfortunately, in succeeding years the team rather fell from this standard and won only seven of twenty-three games played until Mr. Jarvis became coach in 1942. In the following season a team was entered in the Senior C.O.S.S.A. league with neighbouring high schools for the first time. In 1944 a Bantam fLittlesideJ team was created as a further training ground for future seniors, but un- fortunately due to lack of coaches lasted only a year. That year the Senior team tied with Port Hope High School for the league and won a thrilling two game total points series playoffs 68-56 C35-22, 33-341, only to lose out to Bowman- 252 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ville in the next round. Since then, the First beam has never been out of the playoffs. ' After that year the School was plagued by a shortage of coaches and during 1945 and 1946 seasons, Mr. Hodgetts divided his time between the hockey and basketball First teams with admirable results. In both years the team got through to the playoffs only to be eliminated by the power- ful Peterborough Collegiate quintet which again looks like the team to beat this year. After the war, exhibition games with Pickering, S.A.C. and the Alpha Delta Phi's were re- sumed in addition to the regular C.O.S.S.A. league games. This year we are in the C.O.S.S.A. league with Peter- borough, Oshawa, Cobourg and Lindsay and exhibition games with Pickering, U.C.C., U.T.S., Alpha Delts, Port Hope Rascals and possibly S.A.C. Q Outstanding among T.C.S. opponents has been Bill Gourlay, who personally led S.A.C. to two defeats over T.C.S. 58-16, and 88-19, by scoring forty-one and thirty-one points respectively in 1940. Always a scourage to T.C.S., last year he scored twenty points when the Alpha Delts played here, and this year he collected twenty-three in lead- ing them to victory. Ever since 1912 T.C.S. has found Peterborough hard to beat and in the last two years they eliminated T.C.S. in the playoffs each time. One of the most thrilling games last year occurred when the First team edged Peterborough 26-25. T.C.S. has had its share of close games including two victories over Oshawa last year, each by one point, 37-36 and 33-32. In 1916 the School saw its first tie game 37 -37 against Cobourg which was won in overtime. The 1939 team had perhaps the most successful record but of late T.C.S. has turned out several fair teams. Among the stars in recent years have been Ed. Gordon, Rusty Keyes. Burr French, Hart Drew, Bill Carhartt and Willer Toole. Offensively and defensively, however, the strength of a basketball team lies in the ability of its five members to work together. In this game the emphasis is on body TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 control and exactness of execution rather than on brute strength. Thus a degree of precise team play that no other sport approximates, gives this sport its great popularity. Unfortlmately there has never been a high enough quality of basketball at T.C.S. for it to really catch on but with more material each year its prospects are bright. --R. L. Watts, Form VIA.

Even her two kittens failed to amuse her on this dreary morning. She was just wondering if any more peculiar adventures would happen to her, and hoping that they would, when her eyes happened to light on a small open window in the wall of the room. The strange part about this small open window was that it had never been there before! The wall had been blank there for as long as she could remember. However, after her recent adventures in Wonderland and behind the Looking Glass, she was quite prepared to believe anything. Being inquisitive by nature, Alice rose, put her kittens in their basket with their mother, and went to the window to look through. Before she knew it, Alice was through the window and into an entirely different place. The air was fresh and exhilerating, the countryside neat and orderly. Be- fore her was an enormous sign, designed in flowers, which read Bethuneland in large colourful letters. Of course , thought Alice, I should have known when I saw the open window. Directly ahead of her was a large forest and the path she was on led directly to it. Alice, looking back and not seeing any sign of the window, her original point of en- trance, shrugged her shoulders and set off along the trail. Suddenly. as she was passing under a high stone-wall, a deep bass voice muttered a few words, and looking up TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 quickly, Alice saw a funny fat thing perched on the wall, watching her. Oh, who are you? she cried. My name is Humpty Dumpty James and I just sit here all day. With this, the rotund fellow began to sing jingles in his loud voice. Dear me, thought Alice as she moved quickly on. What a strange person . When she reached the forest she came to a fork in the road. A sign-post pointed to each road, the one to the left was labeled Left and the one to the right, Right . Being right-handed, Alice went right and presently she arrived at a little house in front of which stood two queer- looking individuals. What are your names ? asked Alice. Pm Tweedle Bill Brewer, and- the first one said. 'Tm Tweedle Burr French. Who- the second con- tinued. - - Are you ? they finished in unison. My name is Alice, she replied, but as she spoke, the two rushed off, not paying any attention to her at all. Oh dear , said Alice, people do get about so! So say- ing she moved past the cottage and into a large clearing in the trees. Here she saw a small fellow, Weeping quietly, facing a large crowd of cheering people. Who is that? asked Alice of the person next her. Why that's Willie 'Mock Turtle' Herridge , was the reply and just then the Mock Turtle spoke, sighing softly as he recited - - - Will you move a little faster? said the senior to his fag, There's a prefect right behind you and he'll think we're Playing tag, See how eagerly the new-boys hold the doors - - - just see their stance! They are waiting in the hall-way - - - will you come and join the dance? 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance? You can really have no notion how delightful it will be When a prefect fans a new-boy with his paddle 'cross his knee , But the fag replied 'too hard, too hard', and gave a look askance, Said he thanked the senior kindly but he would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance. ' 'lWhat matters it how hard he hits, his privileged friend replied, When you go to sleep at night, you always lie upon your side. The harder on the new-boy, the harder on the pants. So do not sag, beloved fag, but come and join the dance. Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance? e Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance? ' As he finished, the whole group danced about the clearing in twos, chanting these last lines until suddenly somebody cried out Run and everyone ran 'till all had disappeared and Alice found herself alone - - at least so she thought. Suddenly from nowhere came a low sound of laughter. Gradually the volume increased until Alice had to cover her ears with her hands. Then she saw something very strange - - a grin. Nothing else but a grin. Then a face slowly materialized. It was freckled and had one dimple. Suddenly the laughter stopped and the grin said, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD O Hello, I'm Cheshire-Cat Wells . Hello, I'm Alice, said Alice. Who asked you ? said a voice behind her, very rude- ly. Alice turned around and saw a long table set for a tea party and at it were seated three people. The first one grinned, twitched his nose, and said, I'm Dick 'March-hare' Carson, since you ask, and if you didn't you should have! 'I'he second one, wearing an enormous top hat and glasses added, And I'm Willie Welsford, the Mad-Hatter, if you insist, and you should, and he laughed hideously. Then the two creatures picked up the other, who was asleep, shoved him into the tea-pot head first and said in unison, And he's Wilbur Dormouse Hamilton . Then they pulled his struggling body out of the hot tea, and put him back on his chair, where he promptly went back to sleep. Won't you have some tea '? No, thank you , said Alice, I must go, really. And she did. Continuing along the road, she suddenly saw a figure rush out of the bushes, bump into her, pull out of his pocket a large gold watch, muttering Oh dear, it's half- past Tuesday. Late again , and rush off. Alice said aloud, Now who could that be'? , and was quite startled when a voice from above her answered That's Yan 'White Rabbit' Campbell, didn't you know? Alice looked around and saw seated on a big toadstool, a throne as it were, a large caterpillar swinging a squash racquet in each of his many feet. Across the front of the toadstool was Written in large letters J. KNIGHT-faulty advice to all . Alice was just opening her mouth to speak to him, when he vanished, leaving the squash racquets behind. Alice picked up one of them and swung it gently but the racquet kept on swing- ing and pulled Alice after it until they reached a small cottage from which came sounds of crying and violent sneezes accompanied by mild oaths. Alice, grateful that she had only picked up one racquet, dropped the now docile 34 TRINI I'Y COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD one, entered the open door and found herself in a large, peppery kitchen. As a matter of fact, the kitchen was so peppery that Alice cou1dn't suppress a sneeze, so she didn't. After the sneeze, she looked around and saw through the clouds of pepper a cook pouring pepper into a cauldron of soup while a figure which resembled a Queen of Hearts and holding a baby commanded More, off with your head, more! in loud tones. Then Alice saw a familiar grin hover ing over the hearth and when it had materialized she said, Hello, Cheshire-Cat Wells. Hello, Alice, answered the queer animal, Do you know the Queen and the Baby? No, I don't, answered Alice, should I? Well, this is Nogi 'Queen of Hearts' Newcomb, and the brat is sometimes known as Nat Buffield, or even as Butterfield ii, although he prefers the former. Queen and Brat - - this is Alice. Introductions finished, Alice sat down, trying hard not to sneeze. Her friend the cat had vanished again, and she didn't quite know what to say. Just at that moment, how- ever, a messenger of some sort ran in the door, blew a blast on a bugle and cried ---- The King of Hearts holds a trial terminated by a fanning this afternoon. All are invited. After another blast on his horn, he ran out again, sneezing. Alice was a little dumbfounded, but when the Queen ran out of the door, throwing the bawling child at her, she caught it and followed. The child, however, after a few steps. oinked instead of bawled, and Alice found she was carrying a red-haired piglet with a Bermudian accent. Quickly dropping him, she raced after the disappearing Queen. Soon they arrived at the Court. It was filled full of strange characters of whom Alice recognized only a few. The judge was the Rev. King of Hearts Bagley whose Word was law. He was seated on a high throne beside the Queen who cried off with his head every few minutes. Sud- URORY AFORESAIDN G. R.

No, no, my dear, continued the Queen. The verdict comes after. Read the charge, Herald! The White Rabbit arose, carefully smoothed his black hair lonly on his headl and gazed about the court. Then he carefully unrolled a long scroll, tripped over it, recovered his balance and dignity. and read in a loud voice, The new boy's hair was quite a scare And made the Senior smirk. The senior's fair, his only care To make his poor fag work. Immediately the Dormouse Hamilton beside Alice be- gan to cheer wildly until one of the guards suppressed him forcibly. ' Good riddancef' thought Alice as she watched the trial. Quickly tiring of this she rose to leave whereupon everyone stopped talking, except the Dormouse who snored loudly so Alice said Boo to the poor fellow and scared him so that he began shaking. Alice ran out, and once outside, she followed the first path she saw. Soon she reached a log beside the path, and she sat down to rest. The scene faded away and she found herself back in her own home, in front of the roaring fire with her kittens. Oh dear, she sighed, just when I was enjoying it. That's quite the nicest place I've been to yet, and she went back to sleep. THE END -G. E. Pearson, Form VIB. 36 TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ll K gif.-'Fl A ,1.-315, . N. ' ' 0 F EAX f 1 fx I I.

THE INTRUDER The rider paused on a green-tinged ridge. He looked down and not far below he saw a sandy arroyo which he followed with his eyes until he could do so no longer. Its twistings and windings soon lost it to view behind ridges which bordered it on both sides and similar to his. Then all he saw was more rangeland dotted with sage and mesquite and candlebush. Beyond this stretch of desert- like expanse lay a range of mountains still a blue-brown in the early light, but green in the light of day, for rain had been plentiful this summer in the mountains and grass abounded in the high country. One mountain, a little higher than the rest attracted the rider's attention. On the very top were two large rocks which formed a perfect saddle, as one was in the shap of a cantle, the other of a pommel. 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At the foot of the mountain, a dark green patch gave evidence of a grove of cotton-woods and oaks. This was evidently what the horseman had been looking for, and, spurring his horse, he plunged down the rocky slope and into the arroyo. Following the dry bed, shaded here and there by mes- quite trees, it was not long before he emerged upon a trail leading through a thick, mesquite forest. This in turn yielded to a trail bordered by huge oaks and big cotton- woods. Ahead of him, in the grove he had seen from the ridge, was a small corral and water trough. On reaching it he unsaddled, and rolled himself a cigarette in the shade of an oak. He looked at the early sun and thought how fortunate the summer had been this year. There had been much rain in July and now grass was plentiful. The cattle were fattening up very nicely and should bring good prices in the fall. Much hay had been stored and, in case of a hard winter, which was unlikely on account of the grass, he would not be short on feed. His fences were mended and corrals repaired. Hence this deer hunting trip-he felt he owed himself a holiday after much hard work. It would only last a day or two, but it would make the dif- ference. He rested several minutes longer and then having thrown away his cigarette he saddled up and was off on a trail leading up the mountain. It did not go straight up the face, but began out of sight of the corral and almost behind the mountain which formed a pocket with its neigh- bour. Soon the trail came into a climbing canyon and was bordered high on both sides by steep, rock precipices. At points one could see the trail ahead winding upward for several hundred yards. Looking down one could see nothing but more trail and gulch. Finally the precipices fell away into gentle, grassy slopes, thick with bear grass and the barred cactus. Then the trail halted abruptly. The rider found himself between two large boulders, some hundred yards apart. He was in the rock saddle he had TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD seen from below. Now he could see all the country below him. Far down he picked out a green line of mesquite trees which was the arroyo, winding aimlessly through sparse rangeland. Not a thing moved. All was quiet. All was lonely. The range below stretched out forever it Seemed. It went on and on and on until far away it stop- ped abruptly at the foothills of a large range of misty mountains, mysterious in the shadow of distance. The country on the other side of the saddle was a vivid contrast. Here, only a couple of hundred feet below, lay a valley, surrounded by high crags of strange rock formations. The valley was green with high, bush gram- ma grass and sprinkled with the purple flower of curly mesquite. The candlebush added to its richness and with the Joshua tree gave the place a wild beauty. A stream idled through the valley and bubbled on until it got lost in a maze of rocks at the end of the valley which became a canyon not far below. The valley was a miniature bowl on a. mountain top, open to the sky and seemingly touched by the hand of God and made a paradise because of its nearness to the heavens. Even as the rider stood there on his horse, an eagle flew from his nest on the pommel rock and went screeching across the valley to a higher crag, complaining of the human presence that had invaded its world. For a long time the rider stood looking at this valley. Suddenly his keen eye was attracted by some movement under a mesquite tree beyond the stream where it entered the rocks. Or was it a movement? He thought he saw a deer under the tree but the distance prevented him from being certain. Perhaps it was only a rock. No, he saw it moveagain. He withdrew his rifle from its casing and dismounted, throwing the reins over his horse's head. It would be better to approach on foot since his rifle would not be accurate at such a distance. Down the rocky slope he went, through the thick grass. He moved slowly, making as little noise as possible on the shale of the slope. Soon 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD he was across half the bowl and had entered the maze of rocks. Here the going was even slower, for if he as much as dislodged one rock, the deer would be up and away. He approached the stream and as he crossed, the heel of his boot caught in a crevice and he sent a rock tumbling down on others. He hardly dared to look up. When he did so, the deer was still there. Or was it a deer? Still he was not close enough to be certain and no movement followed the noise of the rock. With dogged persistence he plunged again into the long grass. Then it was that he heard a sound which sent chills up his spine and made him weak. Well he knew this noise. Looking about him he saw it, not three feet away from him and lying between two rocks. There, coiled and ready to strike, was a diamond-backed desert rattler-the largest he had ever seen. He didn't run and he didn't move. He stood absolutely still and watched the snake. He wondered if he had stumbled on its lair by mistake. If he remained still it shouldn't strike. But the snake was angry. Per- haps it would be better to run. But no, rattlers can strike quicker than any human can move. He stood still and frightened. looking at the beady eyes of the snake. Then he couldn't move. He felt hypnotized by those eyes. He felt absolutely powerless .... those eyes .... he was being attracted by those eyes .... now a burning yellow, now a thousand different colours-always hungry, always wild. Suddenly the snake gave a perceptible jump and the man came out of his trance. The rattler lay dead, pierced through the head by an arrow. He looked up and a hun- dred feet away he saw a man standing, bow in hand, among the rocks of the opposite and steeper slope of the bowl from which he had come. He was tall and bronzed and his un- covered hair was jet black. He stood for a moment in full view and then retreated behind the crags and boulders. Loud calls would not bring him back and he did not appear again. The man looked again at the dead snake at his feet and then at the crudely built arrow that had brought its TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 death. What did this mean? Who was this stranger? Obviously an Indian, but from where? Indians didn't live up here any more. That went out when the Apaches sur- rendered. Or did it? The man forgot his deer which, in truth, had been but a stone lying under the mesquite tree. He hastened back tio his horse, hoping to catch a further glimpse of the Indian who had saved his life. He reached his grazing horse and mounted. From the saddle-rock he looked out over the valley and saw nothing but the beauty he had seen before. Nothing moved and all was quiet and peaceful. Then from the rangeland side of the saddle-rock crept a thunderhead, fol- lowed by others. These made him realize that he was an intruder in the silent valley, a silence broken only by the bubbling of the brook and the eagle's screech. -W. K. Newcomb, Form VIA. STORM AT SEA 'I'he storm had reached its height, and we were lost. I braved the deck. The heavy fog had cleared Just for a moment, and at last the sea So long unseen, was now revealed and real. The penetrating blasts the foghorn moaned, Unnerving, only emphasizing more The loneliness and blindness of our plight, ' Had ceased. And I beheld the weirdest scene That I had yet encountered, it was like A dreadful nightmare, terrifying dream. The tempest raged relentlessly, and froze The very blood within my veins. The Wind Blew fiercely, took my breath away, and sent The stinging spray across the deck to strike Like little beads of lead that burnt my flesh. And giant, toW'ring hills of angry waves, Like great, inhuman monsters from the deep, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD All-evil, merciless and cruel, heaved up, And in their rage and fury. raised and hurled And dashed our little ship, a helpless soul, Resigned and lost, until it shook and creaked And took such leaps and bounds, that I was sure 'Twould break in two and sink beneath the waves. And vast, ethereal mists rose from the sea, Like ghosts of some unknown, immortal world, Around, around they whirled and swirled, until They reached the gloomy, dark and frowning roof Of thick, black clouds that menacingly hung Above, like some awaiting god, about To plunge upon us, choking us to death. Uncanny, fright'ning, it then seemed as if The world at last had come to end, and this Was Hell. I shivered, grasped the railing then More firm, as if it was the last remains Of Life, a realistic world, quite sane And human, not like this. Then suddenly The fog returned and all was lost from view. And I was left there, standing cold and wet And trembling, paralyzed with awe and fear. Till once again the foghorn blew, and woke Me from my trance. And then I went inside To welcome earthly sights, and hear men speak, And touch and fondly finger man made things. And try then to forget that awful scene, In fear that soon it should obsess my mind, For t'was a sight not meant for sane mankind. e-F. H. S. Cooper, Form VIB STATION INCIDENT The gigantic, snorting hulk of steel slid to a screech ing stop. From the long line of coaches which followed emerged a stream of luggage which clattered haphazardly onto the cement walk. Then appeared porters with white TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 topcoats, dark pants and caps, in one hand a yellow stool which they placed strategically below the door through which came a stream of people, a torrent of men and wo- men, a walking, running, shouting, laughing, talking, grumb- ling crowd who surged down the platform, beyond the engine which showered the foremost with steam. A shrill whistle, heralding the coming of an electric pick-up, filled to capacity with baggage, momentarily stopped the press- ing throng, but in a few seconds they were again on the move towards the gates of the main station where cries of welcome could already be heard. Here friends greeted friends, relations shook hands and loved-ones embraced amid the rumbling and puffing of freight trains, the bang- ing of baggage, the beat of pick-axes as railwaymen strove to renew the ties on track 3 before the 8.20 was due, the monotonous monotone of the intercommunication loud- speaker and the mixed voices of an assembled multitude. Here business-men, financial tycoons, eccentric ladies, chauffeurs, bridegrooms, hoboes, farmers, cooks, country lads, people of different colour, creed and religion met. Here the country doctor could be seen as he waited to re- turn to his home town after a doctor's convention, here was the lawyer waiting to go on his vacation, here was the minister ready to give moral assistance to the needy travel- ler, here was the centre of humanity, the ever-pounding heart of life. The big clock boomed seven times, the station rush hour had begun. The sun, broken into strips by the girders in the roofs, formed a quilted pattern on the floor, and illuminated the highly decorated walls. In one corner of the spacious waitinglroom slouched a hobo. His cap was pulled down over one eye, and his coat was lying at his feet. His pants hmig, by a piece of rope, well below his waistline, and his grizzled chin showed him to be badly in need of a shave. Suddenly he looked up and his wandering gaze finally settled on the lunch counter. There on a stool sat the lone customer, a tourist. His 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD loud, checkered suit, his matching bow tie and hankie, his shined shoes and sleeked hair and his rimless glasses gave him a dapper appearance. His wide mouth had stuck in it a cigar. and between drags he sipped coffee over the morn- ing newspaper. Searchingly his hand felt for a piece of toast on a plate before him and after retrieving its quarry, lifted it past a weak jaw to expectant lips. Below the stool on which he sat was a large well-plastered suitcase, covered with stickers of nearly every hotel from Marne to Florida. In a little while he got up and sauntered out into the waiting room. A loudspeaker in the distance was giving the times at which the next trains were due. Slowly he walked over to one of the large gates through which could be seen the platform. Train for all points west of Chicago leaving on track 10 came a voice over the intercommunica- tion loudspeaker. ' The tourist turned around and spying a red cap called in a harsh voice Hey you . The man looked up, Yassah boss, what can I do foah you ? he replied in a friendly tone. Get my bag . was the reply. It's over in the lunch counter . Yessuh, on what train is you goin' on ? The 8.20 due in fifteen minutes on track 5, car 187 . The red cap ambled off and entered the lunch counter only to return empty-handed. It ain't there, boss , he ex- plained. The tourist's jaw dropped. It must be, said he angrily. Why, I left it there myself. Now look again or ..... Just then he caught sight of a vanishing figure and shouted, Oh ! ! ! There ! ! . The bum had soon perceived his opportunity. Saunter- ing into the lunch counter, when the sole occupant was the proprietor, he had demanded a cup of coffee, and as soon as the man's back was turned, was away with his prize. Off across the station he ran and through the wide gates onto the platform where the 8.20 would soon arrive. The TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 arms of the station clock were making a straight angle and the loudspeaker announced the 8.20 to be due in ten minutes. Already the line-up to get aboard had begun. In a few minutes the smoke from its mighty furnace gently rose into view. Soon the whistle could be heard and the station-master, posted in the switch-tower, saw it coming around the bend. Over on track 5, work had ceased and the men were waiting, pick-axes in hand, until it had pass- ed, when from the shadows of a loading dock a hundred yards away came two running figures, the first carrying a suit-case and the second wearing a loud-checkered suit, in hot pursuit of the former. The first figure had a good start and was rapidly in- creasing his lead, while the second could be heard crying, Stop, thief! . Suddenly the first veered towards the railwaymen, and seeing the 8.20 coming down the track, ran across its course. The latter cut on an angle and ran towards his quarry, heedless of the oncoming monster. The 8.20 roared by. With screaming suddenness, a dark figure leaped out of the way, carrying in one hand a motley-coloured bag, and landed at the bottom of a trestle. A second or two later the engine flashed by and the cars followed in staccato succession. The gigantic, snorting hulk of steel slid to a screech- ing stop. On one wheel was the tattered remnant of a piece of checkered cloth. -D. A. Campbell, Form VIB. -. A SYMBOL The old barn was now to be razed. For one hundred and fifty years it had predominated the tiny Village, situated as it was on a nearby hill. Its venerable grey walls, quiet and unassuming, had somehow seemed to represent all that was safe and peaceful in the Worried world. The friendly habitants of the small Quebec village had now, for six generations, lived, worked and died with- 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD in sight of it. The oldest man in the village was just able to remember the story of how his grandfather had built it. Originally it had been intended as a form of fort against the attacks of the redskin. The strong sides bore many a scratch and groove showing where the arrows of the Iro- quois had driven in. The old building, if gifted with the power of speech, would have many dramatic stories to narrate. It could tell of the frightened people cowering inside and of the war whoops of the savage Indians. Again it would tell a story of peace-the green fields, yielding their harvest and the white Winter blanket covering the land and streets of the village. After all this, the barn was now to be razed. Where it now stood, there would be nothing-nothing but a heaviness in the hearts of the vil- lagers. MR. Brinckman, Form IVA. THE NEW CAR I first heard the story of Grandpa's escapade from the lips of Grandma, several years after it happened. Grandpa punctuated her tale with snorts and explosive Bahs! and she continually told him, Do be still, dear . However, from the twinkle in his eye, I gathered that he enjoyed it as much as she did. When the first cars came out Grandpa was determined to buy one, or so he said, and with Grandma's rather fear- ful assent he put in his order. The car was finally de- livered and put into the garage which had been built ex- pressly for this purpose. For several days he did nothing but look at it. Indeed he was rather afraid of the car, and was quite surprised at Grandma's consenting to the pur- chase, for he had not expected her to give in. One Sunday afternoon. when Grandma was out call- ing ,he plucked up enough courage to get into his car. He hadn't the slightest notion of how to drive it and as the man who delivered it offered no advice. Grandpa disdained TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47 to ask it. The gearshift on this type of car was rather unusual for the times. It was a 'bar which came up from the floor and had three positions. Reverse was the farthest away from the driver, forward the position nearest him and neutral in between. Grandpa was completely ignorant of all these facts. but he no doubt felt that he could solve any problem of manipulation when the time came. Somehow he got the motor started and when he found he could control its speed by means of two levers on the steering-wheel he was very pleased. With the motor roaring loudly, he pulled back the gear shift as hard as he could and the car, of course, went through the back of the garage. Disconcerting as this was, Grandpa did not lose his presence of mind but immediately pulled the gearshift in the opposite direction. His charge rocketed backwards, through the garage and out of the hedge-lined driveway. Due to his impatient handling of the wheel, the car went through the hedge several times, much to his horror, for that hedge was Grandma's pride and joy. Their home was situated at the top of a hill which sloped steeply down into the business section of the small town. So great was Grandpa's dismay at the havoc he had wrought in the hedge that he hurtled down the hill, still going backwards. His shouts of warning were quite unnecessary, for those few people who were in the streets got out of the way as quickly as possible. It was not to be that Grandpa should get through the town without doing any damage. Before his mad career ended against a substantial maple tree, he managed to take the wheel off a carriage, and to splash the mayor's wife from head to toe with mud. Being too fat to hurry, she could not escape this fate. The next day saw Grandpa visiting various people to make amends. What was left of the car was sold, for in Grandpa's mind it was a bad horse which had not obeyed him, and must be punished by leaving him forever. -D. H. E. Cross, Form VA.

THE TRANSFORMATION Professor Jean Jacques Becasse quietly opened the door to his work-room . He glanced about at the almost terrifying row of sparkling glass instruments before him. Then he clamped down on his emotions with an iron hand and all feeling of excitement left him. Dulac , he called loudly. His assistant sprang up to meet him. Without a word he Walked over to the long table where, tidily kept, there stood rows of phials filled with different coloured liquids. In the big book which lay before him he marked: Sth June, 1932. Then barking out to his assistant in curt monosyllables for what he Want- ed, he settled down to Work. Dulac gave him everything he asked for in perfect order and timing. He was used to such treatment, Monsieur le Professeur never spoke to him in any other way. Phial , rapped the professorg Dulac swiftly inserted it into his master's hand. But he did not grasp it in his usual quick manner, instead he let it drop, it rolled off the table and broke on the floor. He cursed himself inwardly as a clumsy ox and told himself that he was becoming jit- 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tery near these, the final days of his experiment. Why, he was as bad as on his first day in the university When, like a fool, he had dropped a test tube full of acid! And to top all. in his confusion, he had just stood there and blushed! Chemistry had been a bore to him theng he had never dreamed that it was to become his whole life. He had been wild and reckless in his boyhood. He remem- bered how he had charged over the desert on those meteor horseback rides which had marked the zenith of the Wild joy of his youth, and how he had hunted panthers in the Atlas Mountains. He remembered the thrills of the wild chase and the final triumphant kill. But he was getting sentimental. Sentimentality was one of the greatest enemies of success. He worked on and on into the night without rest. He had become like a machine. Suddenly an owl's hoot whistled through the drowsy silence. He started, fully awake. He felt his heart pounding in his breast as though he had been frightened. He realized that he had. An owl's hoot always had a cer- tain significance for him ever since the night when it had echoed and re-echoed in his beautiful garden at home . . the night when his father's detachment had been reported surrounded by the huge Arab horde of the rebel Moham- med-ben-Aoude. the lion of Moroccog and he and his brave Spahis were mourned as dead. He could still picture the gaunt figure of his wounded father as he returned over the still burning sands two night later. He pushed these thoughts away from him abruptly. He was losing his grip on himself. He must concentrate. But the vision of his father kept creeping back into his mind to haunt him. His noble god-like father, General Becasse, one-time Commander-in-chief of all the French troops in Morocco. How he had admired him as a boy! And how badly he had treated him as a youth of seventeen, when he had run away from home, because of a disagree- ment between them in which he had been entirely in the wrong. and how he had thus bereft his father of his only l i 'l'RlNlTY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 child. Yes, and killed him too, for he had died shortly after of a heart attack, brought on by his loss. He had become so engrossed in his thoughts that he had been working mechanically and had hardly noticed how well his experiment was proceeding until it was practically completed. For a minute he hardly realized what this meant. Then the excited look in Du1ac's eyes woke him up to the fact that his work was at last over. His heart pounded faster. Here was the final test. He would see now whether his theory, which he had been working on for years, was correct. The blood pounded in his temples. If he was right, these two liquids which he held in his hands, when mixed, should bubble over and turn a dark brown. If not they would turn green, a deep green. It was ironical. he thought, that green should be his favourite colour. Sud- denly, on an impulsive move he mixed the two together. The mixture wavered in the balance for a few moments then it slowly billowed out into a beautiful emerald green. The professor stood there a few seconds without realizing what had happened. Then defeat swept into his mind like the angry waves into a torpedoed liner. Ten years of hard work, over ten millions of hard cash-wasted. absolutely wasted. He left the room as in a dream, walk- ed across the hall, out onto the terrace, into the bright moonlight. The whole Lmiverse opened up before him, carried in on the sound of the chirping crickets. He was struck breathless by the hugeness of the world. Then sud- denly he stretched his arms out wide and took in a deep breath. He felt happy for the first time in twenty years. He turned abruptly and walked towards the house with a firmness which surprised him. There in the doorway stood his butler. Professeur Becasse , he said, I ..... Professeur Becasse, bah! , came the laughing answer, Private Jean Jacques Becasse, Blue Hussars Regiment! Lapierre, get me a seat on the next plane for Morocco! -C. M.

A. Caldblck, Form VB. . BETWEEN ICE AND WATER Editor's Note: The author spent a summer in Halifax, Nova Scotia, ami worked on several ships sailing out of that port. The story is taken from the experiences of two of the ships he was on as told him by crew-members. One ship, a small fishing trawler, struggled into port with about two feet of ice on her decks last winter. This was the ship chosen for the story. The other was a small coastal freighter irhich ran into at shoal off Halifax in a snow storm. I think I hear a bell, Skipper , came the warning of the lookout. The three men on the bridge strained their ears as the little ship lurched into the driving snow storm. Nothing could be heard but the pounding engines and TRINITY COLLIMTE SCHOOL RECORD 53 crashing waves as the ship nosed under, followed by the quieter splattering of the windblown spray. Guess I didn't after all . That bell-buoy should be around here somewhere , re- marked the skipper. The Mary Priscilla had turned her bows for home about four o'clock the afternoon before in the thick of a cold winter fog. The catch of fish had been very poor, and the nearly empty ship was carrying a very disheartened crew to Halifax. A few hours later on the homeward jour- ney, however, the crew had more than a poor catch to worry about: the fog changed to a wind-driven snow. and the seas became whipped into mountains of water. The little boat bucked and twisted like a wild thing. She set straight into the south-west gale for home. Her plunging and twisting prevented all sleep. and set the cook's dishes a-rolling. During the night they were struck by an even worse turn of the weather. The temperature dropped to zero causing the spray and snow to freeze onto the ship. It soon became dangerous to venture out on the deck for fear of slipping. By morning, although the wind had dropped a bit, the waves and spray were still lashing over the ship. The excess weight of the ice on the upper sections was having its effect on the nearly empty vessel. Her increasing roll was a little slower than before. As the morning wore on, high winds still lashed the waves, and the situation had a marked effect on some of the crew. At noon the tough boy of the ship stood his turn on watch. Watch out! he yelled in feverish excitement as the topheavy ship lingered a little longer than usual at the end of a roll. The wheel which he had released spun wildly around and the ship righted herself and suddenly jerked to the other side. 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Here, here! came the captain's reproach. You'd better let Jack take the wheel. You keep a sharp look-out for any buoys and keep your ears open. We should be out- side Halifax in about four hours . The big fellow moved into position by the narrow slit of the open window, the rest being covered by about six inches of ice. A few minutes passed in silence. The skip- per braced himself in a corner of the Wheelhouse and lis- tened intently. Listen! I hear another boat , came the nervous voice of the look-out. After a short period of alert, he mur- mured half apologetically and half defensively, I was sure I heard a bloody fog-horn. There was no sound but the sea unsteadily tossing the ice-laden boat. Hey skipper, we better get the lifeboats ready. This thing might roll over . Don't worry. We'll be all right , returned the captain calmly. I was just makin' a suggestion. A minute passed. Listen! There's a horn! Silence. I coulda sworn I heard one. Another half hour passed in nervous remarks and anxious fidgeting. Finally the captain told him that he had better go below because he looked a little seasick. There was no hesitation. He went out the door as fast as he could. A few minutes later the skipper saw him inching his way forward on the deck, hanging onto the frozen nets for dear life. For the next few hours the silence of the sea was broken only by the ship's foghorn. The tense atmosphere changed into a dull monotony of snow and waves. At four o'clock the watch changed. They brought up some heavy cookies for the captain. The watchfulness be- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 came a little keener then since the ship was nearing the entrance to Halifax harbour. It was very fortunate that she was approaching port, for the decks were covered by more than twenty inches of ice, and the ship was in a very dangerous condition. All the fishing nets were frozen into grotesque shapes and even the hand rails were much too thick to grip with one hand. The ship teetered and rolled much more unsteadily now. Soon. however, through the white envelope of driv- ing snow, came the reassuring distant boom of the Devil's Island lighthouses off the starboard beam. Judging his position from the direction of the Devil's Island horns, the captain altered course slightly to head for the channel buoy. Soon they heard the Murray's Spit lighthouse signal. It was strange that it came so much from starboard, but the captain altered the course a bit to swing the bow into the channel. Suddenly the skipper noticed the noise of waves break- ing in shallow watery too late. Her bow was lifted up and set down on the shoal by the next wave. The outline of a lighthouse loomed through a rift in the snowstorm off the port bow. The skipper realized Why he had run aground: the snow and wind had played with the sound and he had steered right onto Murray's Spit. He quickly signalled full speed astern. The topheavy ship heeled over steeply and the waves buffeted her furiously but she did not budge. She would soon be knocked to pieces in those conditions. The watch below clambered aft over the slippery decks and began working frantically at the ice-bound lifeboats. Opening the Wheelhouse door, the captain kept one eye on the work at the lifeboats, and the other on the bat- tering waves. He could feel the engines straining hard astern, but the ship held fast. Suddenly the engineer scrambled up the ladder and appeared before the skipper. 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Please, Skipper, he pleaded, Won't you let me stop the engine? It will burn out the cylinders this way. Don't be silly, man! If she doesn't clear, it doesn't matter two hoots in Hades if the engine is all shot, 'cause it'll be at the bottom, if it does pull her off, we'1l be glad enough to get off with the ship and our skins. He glanced at the cold sea in which no man could last a minute. Get back below and get every last bit of power out of her . But, Skipper, it will ruin my engine . The air was rent by a terrific oath. Keep it going , bellowed the skipper when he at last became articulate. Meanwhile the mate and his men were working at the lifeboats. They had succeeded in chopping off the tar- paulin covers with their load of ice. The tackles were made useless by the ice, so they were hacking them away and going to use another rope without blocks. The davits, too, were hopelessly stuck with ice. The work was ham- pered by the pounding waves which sent the men slipping all over the boat deck. Finally they got one of the boats loose and began to lower it over the side. When it was halfway down a big wave rolled the ship over to the side on which the lifeboat hung. Let 'er go , cried the mate and captain simultaneous- ly, in order to prevent the boat from being smashed against the ship's side on the return roll of the ship. Down it went and hit the waves on its side, half filling with water. In a moment another Wave struck, lifting the lifeboat and carrying it away. At the same time the ship shud- dered, her bow lifted, then started crashing down with a bit of a twist to port. The crew held their breath, waiting for the bow to smash on the shoalg the crash did not come. The ship slipped astern, pulled by the still-churning pro- peller, and rolled very heavily to port. For a moment she hesitated as though trying to decide whether to keep on rolling or to right herself. Very slowly she swung back to an upright position. The men gave a gasp of relief.

TRINITY COLLECIC SCHOOL RFICOHD 51 ON EPITAPHS Under the wide and starry sky Dig the grave and let me die - - Glad did I live, and gladly die And I lay me down with a will. This is probably the most famous epitaph in English Literature, and although it is certainly a wonderfully ex- pressive verse, it is also an unusual one, for the majority of epitaphs are not so outspoken. Usually they are terse notes which, coldly engraved in hard stone, tell the sad stories of departed lives with no more warmth than a clic- tionary definition. What crushed hopes lie forgotten be- neath hard tombstones-what disappointments, fears, and bitter, heart-searing griefs are silenced forever in the time enduring ground! All that remains for sorrowing friends are a few simple lines impersonally cut into a slab of stone. In memory of James Carlyle, 1898-1919 . Thus may read almost any stone to the passing glance of an inquisi- tive graveyard trespasser. But how very little he sees! As his parents had not been able to afford a lavish funeral. these simple words were all that marked the little grave. these few carved letters, left to resist the sun and driving rain, storm and infinite time. But what the stone left un- said was the utter tragedy of the boy's death. By 1915 most of Jimmy's older friends had joined the forces, until the temptation had been too strong and he too -although only seventeen-enlisted, and as volunteers were short, he went overseas the next year. After two years of rapidly successive promotions he distinguished himself and returned home heaped with glory and praise. He reached an important position in a newly established and thriving business, and life was beautiful. Here was a suc- cess storyg it seemed too perfect, too much like a story book. Then just before his twenty-first birthday, when life was all promise, when the past was successful and the future everything-calamity. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The new aeroplanes were not the machines they are to-day, but Jimmy had the unquenched spirit of adventure, so when a friend invited him up in his new flying won- der ...... Yes, the humble epitaph left a lot unsaidg it failed to tell of the stunning grief of his parents, of the girl whom he loved, and of all those who held him dear. Nor could it ever tell of the sudden collapse of all the magnificent castles in the sky ..... his father's hopes of a brilliant careerg the inner pride of his mother which had daily in- creased as she saw her son attaining manhood and ful- filling her dreams. The carefully laid plans of both parents as they would sit talking far into the night, into the last feebly flickering log in the fireplace left each to their own thoughts and darkness. For time, truly the father of all, always takes 'back what he gives, and we are but play things in his hands: and the generations after us will perhaps look at our simple epitaphs and wonder .... This is the verse ye grave for me: Here he lies where he longed to beg Homeis the sailor, home from the sea, And the hunter home from the hill . -Stevenson. -Peter Pangman, Form VEB. -it If J .

Junior B League, were defeated 5-4 by Pickering College. The game was very closely contested throughout and went into overtime, and, due to the remarkably good condition of the ice, was quite fast. Trinity had a slight edge in play for most of the game but were unable to over- come the spectacular goaltending of Sifton in Pickering's net. In the opening minutes oi the game T.C.S. carried the play and kept Pickering well bottled up in their own end. At the four and a half minute mark Hoover was given a penalty for interference giving the School a one man ad- vantage, but Pickering successfully held us. Trinity took a 1-0 lead when Taylor scored on a pass from McDonough at 10.50. Pickering came right back at the thirteen minute mark, however, with a Robertson from Rogers combina- tion that tied the score up. At 14.45 Payne scored un- assisted, to give us the lead once more while Pickering were two men short. At 17.55 Wilson from O'Neill scored for Pickering to tie the game up. With fifteen seconds of play left in the first period Payne, taking the puck from Campbell, cashed in his second goal to give the School a 3-2 lead. 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Pickering opened the second period with another Wil- son from O'Neill goal that tied the score at 1.15. Still carry- ing the offensive they took a 4-3 lead when Robertson scored on a pass from Avery while Trinity was short- handed. T.C.S. then settled down and kept Pickering hard pressed for the remainder of the period. Sifton in the Pickering nets, however, held us scoreless. In the last minutes of the period we again had a two man advantage but were unable to overcome the Pickering defense. In the third period the School again started badly but nevertheless kept Pickering scoreless. After some five minutes of play the School perked up and went all out in an effort to overtake Pickering. At the 17.25 mark just after a brilliant save by Fennell in the T.C.S. nets, Lawson raced down the ice and fired the puck past Sifton to tie the score up. With only a couple of minutes to go Fennell again made a remarkable stop on a break-away by Picker- ing. At the end of regulation time the score remained four all. At the 5.30 mark of the ten minute overtime Rogers fed the puck to Addison who drove it past Fennell to give Pickering a 5-4 edge. In spite of the efforts of the first team in the last five minutes, the game ended ina 5-4 Win for Pickering. Sifton was outstanding in the Pickering nets and Rogers played well on defence. Taylor, Hyde and Wood were best for the School. T.C.S.--Taylor i, Wells, Fennell, Hyde, Wood, McDonough, Ful- lerton, Bruce, Ensinck, Campbell i, Payne, Lawson i, Goodbody, Newcomb.

RECORD free from penalties. The Alpha Delts, a heavier and more experienced team, showed several speedy scoring bursts but the hard fighting T.C.S. team managed to hold the leaders to only a two goal margin. Waylett of the Alpha Delts scored the first goal of the game on a pass from Danniels after several minutes of close checking, and then the game opened up when T.C.S. got two goals within a minuteg the first one scored by Payne assisted by Lawson. and the second by McDonough with Taylor and Hyde assisting. The School continued to pum- mel Shortly but were unable to score. Near the end of the period Medland of the Alpha Delts made a breakaway and scored leaving the score 2-2. The second period began with a wild flurry of shots from the Alpha Delts which gave them four goals within the first seven minutes of play. Ecclestone set up Ratcliffe for the first of these, which was followed by an unassisted goal by Hart. Pringle tal- lied next on a pass from Gibson. T.C.S. tried to keep the puck out of their end but Danniels shot the puck into the net on a pass from Ratcliffe. The School then began to dominate the play but missed one or two opportunities and the score remained 6-2 at the close of the second period. In the final period the fraternity began to tire and so were outscored 3-1. Wells led the first attack in the opening of the period to score assisted by Taylor and McDonough. The Alpha Delts returned with a goal by Waylett assisted by Gibson. Halfway through the period Payne scored his second goal for T.C.S. on a pass from Lawson. The score remained 7-4 until the dying moments of the game when McDonough shot the puck past Shortly, Taylor assisting. Ecclestone, Ratcliffe and Waylett shone for the Alpha Delts while Lawson and Taylor played best for the School. Fennell and Shortly were both very good in the nets.

The Champs started fast but Wells opened the scoring for T.C.S. Campbell scored a brace of goals to give the School a 3-0 lead at the end of the period. On Campbell's second goal Burr French generally assisted by deflecting the puck by the bewildered Dawson. T.C.S. had outskated and outplay- ed their opponents by a wide margin. In the second period Howard scored on one of his rushes weaving through the entire team. However, Wells scored again to keep the School in the lead. Gilbert scored on Fennell to keep alive the champs hopes. Wells, Gilbert and Taylor each added another goal to their team's total. Thus both teams had scored three times in the second period to make the score 6-3 for the School. In the second period the champs began to make their passing plays click having the better part of the play. In the early part of the third period the Juveniles turned loose their power plays and scored two quick goals. The School fought back with goals by McDonough and Wells. Play see-sawed back and forth between the two ends. Before the final bell had rung Lawson had popped in two quick goals to give the School a 10-5 win over the vaunted champs. For the School Wells was the best, being well supported by Lawson and Campbell. Howard and Huycke were standouts on the defence for the Old Boys with Gilbert leading the attack.

At Varsity, January 29: Lost 4-2 In their second league game the first hockey team again found themselves trailing at the end of a very close game. Although the final score was 4-2 for U.T.S., the School had the lead with ten minutes to play. The School got the first tally of the game when Wood shot from the blue line and put the puck in the lower corner of the net. U.T.S. then forced the play into T.C.S. territory and Fennell kept the puck out until Sinclair scored on a pass from Bark about half-way through the period making the score 1-1. The U.T.S. team was short one man at the time of the goal as Vernon got a holding penality just before. The second period began with the play inside the U.T.S. blue line but Wood of T.C.S. got a penalty for trip- ping and U.T.S. almost scored. In the dying moments of the period Bark got away alone but failed to score as Fen- nell made a sensational save. There was no scoring this period. Early in the third period T.C.S. took the lead when Payne scored, assisted by Campbell. McClelland of U.T.S. then got a penalty and again U.T.S. scored while a man short as Avery made a wonderful rush. beating Fen- nell from close-in. At this point both teams rushed more and it was a very fast game from here in. The score was 2-2 with five minutes of play when Doll scored unassisted. This was followed shortly by another unassisted goal by Armstrong giving U.T.S. a 4-2 margin at the end of the game. Bark, Lang and Avery were outstanding for U.T.S. while Hyde and Fennell played well for the School.

The ice was fast and this enabled the Bow- manville forwards to take full advantage of their speed. After four minutes of fast play in the first period Dadson scored for Bowmanville on a long shot from the blue line. A series of penalties to both teams kept down the scoring until late in the period when three goals were scored by Bowmanville after scrambles, the T.C.S. defence being slow at clearing the rebounds. The second period opened with a dazzling goal by Black on a perfect play set up by Thompson but thirty seconds later Sturrock re- taliated for Bowmanville. For the rest of the period Tri- nity fought hard and succeeded in scoring two more goals. The first was on a shot by MacPherson from close in and the second on a rather lucky shot by McKinnon which re- bounded off the screen, hit the back of the goalie's pads, and bounced into the net. In the early part of the third period play slowed up a little and then Bowmanville took to the attack and scored four rapid goals, all on scrambles. T.C.S. fought hard and Thompson scored on a pass from Black. On a break-away forty seconds later Hooper completed the scoring by beat- ing Goodbody in the T.C.S. nets. The line of Sturrock, Hooper and Cowle accoimted for seven of the Bowmanville goals and proved themselves to be the stars of the game. For the School, Black and Thompson combined well and Deverall played a strong de- fensive game breaking up numerous dangerous Bowman- ville rushes.

Mof- fitt was elected Captain and Rogers ii Vice-Captain. In their first game, against Bowmanville, after a hard fight the School lost 6-3. Bowmanville obtained a three goal lead early in the game and however hard the School at- tacked they seemed unable to overcome the advantage. In an exhibition game with U.C.C. the team did considerably better and the game ended in a 3-3 tie with the School having a definite superiority for the better part of the game. The team has played well as a group and led by Moffitt and Rogers have done exceedingly well.

The play throughout the whole game tended to be scrambly and rough with the T.C.S. team being very tense. The first quarter was quite slow with few shots and not much action on the floor. In the last part of the first quarter T.C.S. clicked for a few minutes with a very rapid scoring of nine points, to the Rascals' two points. In the second quarter the play was again dead, for the first part but then the Rascals took the lead and at half-time the score was 14-9 for the Rascals. The play now began to loosen up a little and the action became much faster. The third quarter was quite fast with both teams having a hard time gaining the offensive. About the middle of the quarter T.C.S. gained the upper hand and the score at the end of the third quarter was a close 19-18 in favour of T.C.S. The last quarter was very close with the two scores being within one point of each other until T.C.S. again broke loose to up the score to 26-23. A final rush by the Rascals in the closing moments of the game was repulsed and the game ended at 26-23, for T.C.S.

Play was even until late in the first quarter when three successive baskets gave the Alpha Delts the lead which they never relinquished. Throughout the remainder of the first half the School was greatly out-played by the Alpha Delts who built up an eleven point lead over the Schoo1's fifteen points. T.C.S. pressed hard in the third quarter but the Alpha Delts kept pace with the School's scoring and the quarter ended with the score at 37-25. In the final quarter both teams attacked strongly and the Delts rapidly scored ten points. In the final minutes, Trinity attacked with Rogers scoring three baskets. Gourlay with twenty-three points for the Alpha Delts was the outstanding player on the floor, scoring baskets from all conceivable angles. Clement with twelve points also played well for the Fraternity. Rogers led the Trinity attack with eighteen points whilst French and Gaunt play- ed well.

Pickering used the opening minutes of play to good advantage and caught the T.C.S. squad off guard, the re- sult being an 11-6 lead for the former team at quarter time. However, the School seemed to wake up in the latter part of the first half, and soon took the lead, scor- ing twelve points in the second quarter and leaving a half- time score of 18-11 in their favour. The second half was a more evenly matched one, how- ever. and Pickering did their best to even the score, while the T.C.S. squad held their own. The final whistle blew ending the game in a 30-28 win for the School. There was little to choose between the teams, both played good basketball all the way.

A closely fought battle all the way, the winning basket was scored with only three seconds left in the game. Cobourg ran wild at the start of the game, and due to Quigley's shooting had built up a comfortable lead of 16-5 at quarter time. Then the School began to find them- selves in the second quarter until by half time they had narrowed the gap to five points, though Cobourg still led 30-25. It was Wismer's accurate sniping, as he scored fourteen points, that kept the School going in this half. l 1 QL l V ll Ill' 'I I uinitg ollegge School 1Recorb.

It is with feelings of deep satisfaction that we are ahle to present to the Schoolthc first number ofthe T. C. S. Rscotw. As the name implies, it will be the Record of the School, not only of all that takes place within her walls and playground, but of the doings and careers of that larger and ever in- creasing body, who are just as much a part of the School, the Old Boys. We do not mean that our columns will be closed to articles of a more atnbitious nature, but our main object is to chronicle .ftdhe history of the School. There are few, if any, Schools of importance which do not publish a magazine of some kin-1, and such names as the Meteor , the Elizabethan , the Wykehamist are well known the world over and form not the weak- est link in the chain that binds men to their Old School. We venture to say that Old Boys of T. C. S. have often felt the loss of such a magazine to keep them informed of what is being fi ine here, and we feel confident that they will welcome the Rscokn with open arms These are the reasons which have lcd to the establishment of the paper, and they are such as to appeal to all who have the Schools welfare at heart. Some tive years ago a School paper was published under the title of Red and Black, but it died out with the departure of the first editors. The present magazine is issued with the sanction and approval of the Head Master and will be directed by a Committee chosen from the Masters, so that once estab- lished it is not likely to fade away, but rather, we hope,togrow in usefulness and importance until it becomes one of the strongest institut- ions ol' the School. With these words we leave THE Rttcokii to fight its own way, fully assured that Trinity College School will give it a loyal and unwav- ering support. THE Managers of'l't-nz RECORD wish to take this opportunity of tendering their sincere thanks to those who have taken the advertising spaces. We hope that the School will re- member the advertisers and give them the support which they so well deserve. THE Rncoim will be issued twice each term, once at the half term, and once at its close. The columns will be open to news of interest to the School, and we ask Old Boys to send us any information concern- ing their movements or those of others. The subscription is fifty cents a year. --T A series of articles on the history of the School, from the earliest days, is being arranged, which will doubtless prove interesting tn all connected with the School. llr. lit-thune has kinrlly promised ln write the first.

Time and time again the School came within one point of tying the score but each time the sharp-shooting of Quigley and Holland kept the visitors out in front by a narrow margin. Then with about three minutes left in the last quarter Wismer brought the house down when he put the School in the lead for the first time in the game, on a nice play set up by Rogers. For a while the School maintained a narrow lead, but with only twelve seconds left Holland scored what looked like the winning shot to put Cobourg back into the lead by one point. The School then rushed back down the floor and Brewer set up Wismer for the winning basket, a set shot from about the foul line, with three seconds left, to give T.C.S. the victory 45-53. Both teams displayed a terrific brand of fighting basketball in the fast high-scoring encounter, to make it one of the best games ever seen here. Quigley. with twenty- four points, was the spearhead of the Cobourg attack, while Wismer's scoring of twenty-three points and Brewer's checking stood out for the School, though the whole team worked together very well.

SCHOOL vs. OSHAWA COLLEGIATE At Oshawa, January 31: Lost 34-24 In a low scoring game T.C.S. lost out to Oshawa by a ten point margin. Trinity seemed unable to adjust them- selves to a smaller floor thus giving Oshawa a decided ad- vantage throughout the game. Early in the first quarter T.C.S. took a 6-2 lead on baskets by Rogers and Wismer, but Oshawa came right back to gain a 9-6 lead at quarter- time. For the remainder of the half Oshawa kept the T2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ball moving and by quick rushes succeeded in Widening their lead. T.C.S. fought back hard but seemed unable to score, the Oshawa guards clearing the ball well under their own basket. During the third quarter neither team was able to gain any advantage due mainly to inaccurate shoot- ing and wild passes. The score at the end of the quarter being 25-14. In the final period of the game Trinity played extreme- ly well and after successive baskets looked like taking the lead but in the final minutes their attack was turned to de- fense, as Oshawa scored five points to clinch their victory. The best players on the floor for Oshawa were Craw- ford and Dell, who with ten points each led the Oshawa attack. Trinity showed a lack of drive throughout the game and the forwards missed many rebounds under the Oshawa basket. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Brewer, Dame, Rogers, French, Wismer, Watts, Sweny, McIntyre, Conyers.

SCHOOL vs. PORT HOPE RASCALS Trinity College School defeated Port Hope Rascals 34- 32 in a very close game as the score would indicate. For the first three quarters the two squads on Bigside played the same amount of time and the second squad played very well. Trinity started its second team and in the first five minutes, the Rascals took a 6-2 lead. When the first squad took the floor the action became very fast and at quarter time the score was tied six all. The second squad started the second quarter and the Rascals were much superior and took a 14-8 lead. With the return of the first team play was even and at half time the Rascals led 18-12.

The New Boys' Gym. competition was of a very high standard this year which is borne out by the fact that Panet, who came first, obtained 97 marks out of a possible 100. Panet was, however, overage and Croll who finished second received the 10 points for the Magee Cup competi- tion. The competitors finished in the following order: Marks Points 1.

Thanks and congratulations are due the masters and boys who gave so much of their efforts and spare time to making the Christmas Entertainment a success. They had many difficulties to contend with and the final result did great credit to all concerned. The Choir and Mr. Cohhu are also to be congratulated on a particularly fine Carol Service-the result of much hard work. Mrs. Sturgeon, our nurse-matron for the last four years, has been obliged to retire on account of ill-health. Our sincere thanks to her for looking after the health of the J.S. so well during her time here and our best Wishes for a speedy recovery and the very best of luck in the future. We welcome Mrs. Stephenson and her two sons to the Junior School. Mrs. Stephenson is taking over the position of Nurse-Matron and we hope that both she and her family will enjoy their time at the School. The hobby room is once again in full operation and a number of good models are on the assembly lines. The use of scrap Plexiglass had been introduced into our Manual Training periods. While this is an experiment at the moment, it is hoped that some good results may be obtained with this new medium. While we have been a bit handicapped by snow con- ditions, it has been possible to take a number of boys out skiing. We hope for a great deal more of this! -iili 8.0 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD JUNIOR SCHOOL CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT This year the Junior School again produced their own Christmas programme known as The Junior School Varie- tiers. Two short plays and one skit put on by the members of the Prep. forms opened the evening's entertainment. These were all well performed, Richardson and McDonough deserving special mention for their play Harry's Pockets . Mrs. Moore is to be congratulated on the good results she obtained with all three of her productions. The Sleep-Walking scene from Macbeth came next, put on by members of the top form. Pitt as Lady Macbeth gave an outstanding performance which few of us will for- get. This was followed by the ever-popular J.S. Chorus- which numbered many beautiful girls - in the song Silvery Moon . The scene telling of the death of Lady Macbeth came next with Ketchum playing the part of Macbeth very ably. Abdul Abulbul Ameer again brought the Chorus to the stage with Weicker and Southam i fighting fiercely as Ivan and Abdul respectively. A scene from Henry IV put on by members of Form IIA carried the programme on. Symons as Prince Hal did an excellent job ably assisted by Taylor, Church i and Wild- ing. Particular congratulations are due to Taylor as Fal- staff who had to stand-in at the last moment for Martin who was in the Infirmary. The Chorus closed the programme with N0! No! A Thousand Times No! ! This number was very well re- ceived and produced the star of the evening in Carr-Harris as the hero. He was very ably assisted by Tench as the villain and Woods as the blonde heroine. The evening closed with the singing of the National Anthem. 4 1 N 1 1 I l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD S1 The programme follows:- 1. Boy's Rights-Prep, Form--Cowanf Ross, Seagram.

Then the alarm died away and once more quiet descended over the room until, ten minutes later, the peace was again dis- turbed by a wild flurry of blankets and sheets and a few seconds later a youth in his middle teens gazed at the now peaceful clock and realized that he had seven minutes to reach a nearby High School that he attended. He dived for his clothes ..... Three minutes later the boy, trying to look immacu- late but failing utterly at this task, rushed out the door of his house and raced down the street knocking over two cats, a dog, one apple cart, one street cleaner, and the post- man. He was just rounding the corner of a busy thorough- fare when he was brought to an abrupt halt by the voice of a newsboy: Extra, extra, read all about itg get your Saturday morning paper here, extra, extra. -C. Taylor, Form IIA. ..1...1l A '1'HRlLLER I heartily believe that a good murder movie or a Humphrey Bogart thriller is quite worthwhile going to seeg however there is no denying that after sitting through any such picture you become a little jumpy. I am certainly no exception to this rule so, after saying good-bye to Dave Miller fwho had gone to the movies with me this particular Saturday afternoonl, I was a little startled as I opened our front door and heard: Now don' gat me wrong sister. I dun mean you no harm. Gimme the five grand and I'll blow. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Oh, you horrible man , I could distinctly hear Teddy's Nurse-Ann reply. You know very well I haven't that much money with me right now. You'll have to give me some more time. Now look here sister, don' feed me that line again. I aim to get thet money here and now or your folks'll hear from me. Oh no! lgroanl you wouldn't . By now I was quite bewildered. One thing however was certain, our dear Nurse- Ann was in some kind of trouble. Was someone trying to blackmail her, and if so, what for? These thoughts raced through my mind as I quickly closed the front door, took off my overcoat and rubbers, and wondered what to do. Then as I began to creep on tip-toe towards the door, my eyes came to rest on Mother's old antique china vase: why. it would be the perfect thing to throw at this villain. I advanced towards the vase, lifted it off its stand and pro- ceeded towards the open doorway. I could still hear the sound of their voices but my mind was so preoccupied with thoughts of how I was going to throw the vase and whether or not to call the police that I could not clearly make out what they were saying. I was getting closer and closerg every muscle in my body was tensed ready to strike. Then in one motion I had stepped into the doorway and drawn back my arm ready to hurl the great vase . . . but I never threw it. I never said a thing. I just stared in amazement at the scene which confronted ine. Nurse-Ann was there alright playing her part to the letter, but opposite her, clad in an old plaid shirt and a mask was not a murderous villain but my young brother Teddy, having the time of his life. -T.

Armour told tales of the Weston days. The success of the dinner was in large part due to the organizing energy of H. C. Osborne lnow Colonel H.C., a Governorl, assisted by Frank Darling and Alexis Martin. U.C.C. seems to have been well represented at the dinner: we have always had close ties with that famous School.

During the years in which she was with us we learned to value and appreciate her unweary- ing energy and kindness. No trifle was too small for her sympathy, and many a new boy will remember her kindness to him during the trying ordeal of his first week away from home. Mrs. Jellett was the mother of R. P. Jellett and J. M. Jellett. fl 8 0 Q 8 Deep regret was also expressed at the fact that Mrs. Montizambert had moved away from Port Hope. She had been a most hospitable hostess to T.C.S. boys.

In 1877 he went to Prince Albert and since that time he has made his home there. Dr. Reid was at T.C.S. from 1880 until 1886, going on to the old Trinity Medical College, Toronto. In later years he visited medical centres in many parts of the world. It is given to few men to serve a community so long and so faithfully as Dr. Reid has. Last September he com- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RFICYN-ID QQ pleted sixty-nine years of residence at Prince Albert and a civic banquet was given in his honour. Mr. Justice T. C.

Tim is the manager of the track team and has taken an active part with Dick Birks in running the gala Athletics Nights at the gym. which have been at- tended by crowds of up to 3,000. George T. has been cul- tivating glorious new mustaches! 1QQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Chris Bovey is in third year Chemical Engineering with Peter Layne, and they find that fifteen hours of lab and nineteen hours of lectures a week take up all too much of their time. Chris is taking an active part in the Red and White Revue and the Athletics Nights and does work for the Daily periodically. Chester Butterfield, Arthur Carlisle, Susie Ketchum, David MacCallan, Dave Morgan, and Jim Paterson are all in the same year of Arts. Chester still has that great dare for music and plays drum in the band. Mac is back at col- lege to get an Arts degree after receiving his B.Sc. Last autumn Dave Morgan was assistant to Pete Turcot man- aging the first football team, but has now taken over the job himself. Dave and Jim Paterson are two more Old Boys who are officiating during the Athletics Nights. Jim isvery much in the news at McGill this year. His most notable achievement has been the winning of a Rhodes Scholarshipg this was announced by the committee in charge during the Christmas holidays. Jim is also Presi- dent of the McGill Liberal Club, chairman of the Arts and Science Debating Society, Arts and Science representative to the Students' Executive Council, a member of the Fresh- man Reception Committee, and the co-winner with a Ridley College Old Boy of a debate held at Osgoode Hall earlier this year.

A nose injury has prevented him from continuing his very successful boxing career and so this year he is officiating as the team's manager. Andy is doing very well at squash and has play- ed with the first team a number of times. Dave Culver is in fourth year Science with Dave Fricker and Hugh McLennan. Dave Culver is on the first squash team. Hugh drives out to Dawson College twice a week to do some part-time instructing. TRINITY COLIJCGE SCHOOL RECORD 101 Skip Finley, Paul Lebrooy, and Jim Thompson are third year Commerce men. Skip takes a great interest in all campus activities. and he has done the announcing at the football games and the Athletics Nights. Jim was in charge of the organization of two parties the fraternities put on at Christmas for underprivileged children: one of these was held at Father Dann's Church. Doug. Huestis and Bart Sutherland are the only Old Boys at McGill who are in Medicine. Doug is active in the sailing world and is manager of the rowing club: he is also representative on the Students' Athletic Council for soccer, English rugby, sailing and rowing. Pete Landry is the captain of the McGill Squash Team, and he has brought singular honours to McGill this year. By winning the University Club Invitation Intercollegiate Squash Tournament in New York, he set himself up as the foremost intercollegiate player in the U.S. and Canada. During the matches Pete was up against players from Har- vard, Princeton, Williams. Yale. M.I.T., Amherst, West Point, and Dartmouth. Among the eight winners appear- ing on the massive cup are Germain Glidden and Charlie Brinton, both three times national champions of the U.S. Later, Pete broke all precedents when, asayoung player, he defeated the old-timers to capture the Province of Que- bee singles crown. GOOD CHEER AT CIHCISTMAS McGill's Fraternities and Sororities gave two large parties last Christmas for children in some of the poorer sections of Montreal. Among those present were a great number of T.C.S. Old Boys. The first party was for children of all creeds attending Royal Arthur School in the Griffintown Area of Montreal, approximately 115 children were present. The second party was given for children attending Sunday school classes at the Church of St. John the Evangelist, at which 102 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Rev. Eyre Dann is now Curateg approximately 150 children were present. The programme for both parties read as follows: Eats - Carols - Enter Santa preceded by Black Watch Pipers - Giving out of presents - Exit Santa plus bagpipes - Carols. All unforeseen circumstances were taken care of by the following drill: Piano plays, Santa shouts, bag- pipes blow. One of the major highlights of the first party was a little darkie Caged 81 who, when asked by the McGil1ette in the checkroom what his number was, replied by gazing fondly into her eyes and saying: You're mah numbah, baby! Highlights of the second party were Father Dann fin cassock plus reversible l, and Bart Sutherland C39-'42J Qin Santa plus beardl when they did the highland fling as the pipes played The Road to the Isles . The house didn't stop laughing for five minutes. Both parties were made possible by the enthusiastic and wholehearted participation of McGill students who gave not only of their pockets ladequatelyl but also land more sol of their time and effort. It might further be mentioned that thus far all pub- licity concerning these parties has been discouraged by the Fraternities on the McGill campus. Mention is made of them in the Record, not as a Fraternity publicity campaign, but rather as a very worthwhile idea that T.C.S. Old Boys might put into execution elsewhere. T.C.S.

EDITORIAL The athletic programme this term has been perhaps the fullest that it has ever been largely because of the in- creasing number of boys taking part in games. There has been a great deal of enthusiasm among all the boys and consequently more games have been arranged with outside schools. This increase has not in any Way affected the teams already established but has been introduced to give more boys a chance to participate. It has, however, been criticized for interrupting the boys' study, with the sug- 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD gestion being made that intra-mural games be played by all but first teams. While there have been interruptions to study due to games, this time has frequently been made up by players in the afternoons. The important point overlooked, how- ever, is that, in viewing the number of teams we had this term, no particular group of athletes is participating in more games and activities than usual but that a greater number of boys are getting the chance to compete, some- thing that they could not do if there were fewer teams. Consequently, each individual boy has lost very little study time through his participation in athletics. Even at the height of the season, most boys playing on teams missed only one study, a few two. It does not appear, therefore, that undue stress has been placed on athletics. Un- doubtedly it was members of the first teams that missed the greatest amount of work, but it is obvious that until sports are completely abolished, first teams will continue to function. If sports are curtailed, the teams to suffer by this change will be the lower teams-middleside and littleside. Yet these groups did not miss nearly as much school as did the other teams. Why should they, then, be the ones to lose out? Another pertinent factor is that the first teams will suffer if there are fewer teams under them preparing first team material, for no one can jump from an intra-mural league to a first team and ex- pect to be as good as someone who has had good coach- ing and outside game experience on second and third teams. And as the calibre of athletics goes down, so does the reputation of the school, for the majority of people judge T.C.S.-or any school-on the teams that represent it. Of late, T.C.S. teams have held their own with other schools. ls this reputation not worth preserving, if possible? If, however, some change is needed in the athletic policy, simply removing a few of the teams is not the solution. This merely robs some boys of any chance to participate in athletics while it leaves others in exactly the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 same situation they were in this year. This is not in any way curing the evil but merely reducing it to smaller pro- portions. A fairer and more constructive change would be to set a certain standard in work which boys must reach in order to be allowed to play games. This would give the younger and less skilled boys in the School as much chance to play as it would the first team players. It would also make it less disastrous for teams to miss a bit of study now and then. For if all the players were obtaining suit- able marks, it wouldn't hurt them to be away occasionally. This idea may be criticized from the point of view of first teams who could ill afford to lose valuable players because they Weren't getting good enough marks. The answer to this is that most outstanding players are keen enough athletes to make a distinct effort to keep their marks above the grade and to make up any Work that they have missed. If they are not willing to do this then they are not as valuable as was thought. It is worth repeating that the good name of the School depends to a large extent on its athletics. The ability and character that boys develop on the playing field are, there- fore, very important. These abilities can only be learned by practice and experience. More important than the actual skills are all the characteristics of good sportsman- ship which are learned on the playing fields. These are surely worth preserving and what is more, they should be acquired by as large a group as possible. Let us not minimize a very essential side of our education. -J.B.F. .illi-i1 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD A XX HAPELXC ous The lIeadmaster's Sermon On Sunday, February 6, the Headmaster read the second in the series of radio talks given over the B.B.C. by Professor C. S. Lewis. Before starting to read, he went over a few of the salient facts which had been brought out in the first part of the talks. In the address which the Headmaster read, Professor Lewis shows that the Moral Law of which he speaks is neither an animal instinct, nor a mere human convention. He shows that it is not an instinct because something prompts us to follow certain instincts such as that of helping someone in danger even when we have a stronger instinct of self-preservation. This something cannot it- self be an instinct. Also if the Moral Law were merely an instinct or collection of instincts, we could say that some natural impulses were right and some wrong. Yet all our instincts will sometimes prompt us to evil and sometimes to good. If the Moral Law was merely a human convention then it would be nothing more than the moral standards of the particular country in which one dwelt. Anyone will admit that our moral code is better than that of Hitler, while this very comparison shows that there is some real Moral Law with which the codes of different countries can be compared. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 The Church in Japan On February 16, the Rev. H. G. Watts preached at Evensong. He had just returned from a trip to Japan where he was sent by the Archbishop of Canterbury with three others to make a report on the condition of the Anglican Church in Japan. He spoke to us of the damage that has been done to it. Contrary to common opinion he said that Hiroshima and Nagisaki were not the only towns destroyed. In all, 119 cities were bombed beyond recogni- tion and in one raid on Tokio there were over 300,000 casualties. This figure is more than the total losses sus- tained by the American Army throughout the entire war. Of the twenty-three English Churches in Japan all but three were levelled to the ground. This is much more stupendous than it appears in cold print when one considers that most of the work of the Japanese missions was accom- plished in these buildings. Mr. Watts pointed out that there were dark pages in our history as well as in the history of enemy countries, and said that it was our duty as Christians to support any attempt to send missionaries to these parts of the World. i The Visit of Rev. R. H. Loosemore It was with much pleasure that we welcomed back to the School the Rev. R. H. Loosemore of the Order of St. John the Evangelist after a period of seven years. He spent a week at the School from March 2 to March 10 on his mis- sion, conducting a service of Holy Communion every morn- ing at seven o'clock, and evening Chapel every night. Each night he gave us a short talk, basing his talks on the ques- tion, How are we going to get to know God better? He emphasized the fact that we must do more real praying, and that we must really devote ourselves to God, until we finally become a part of Him, and He becomes a part of us. During the Religious Knowledge classes, Father Loose- 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD more very kindly undertook to tell us about the work he and his brothers did at Bracebridge. We were very sad to have Father Loosemore leave us, for he had become one of us. We should like to thank him very much for all he did for us and we hope that he will return in the not too distant future. On Sunday, March 9, Rev. R. Loosemore gave his final address in the Chapel. He said that in the Bible there were two statements which at first seem very contradictory. The Church is the house of God , and God does not dwell in temples built by man . Both of these statements, however, are true. The Church does not refer to a building, but to the whole mass of Christians throughout the world. All those people who claim that they do not have to go to church are, in a way, rightg but we must remember that God is much more likely to bestow His grace on those who come to worship at the symbol of His throne. Father Loosemore concluded by urging us to pray steadfastly and to listen carefully to God's words, for He alone can guide us along the right paths. Mr. Bagley On the Sunday following Father Loosemore's visit, the Chaplain spoke in Chapel and explained to us one or two of the questions which had come up during discussions of Father Loosemore's sermons. Mr. Bagley took as his text the first verse of St. John's Gospel: In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God . His sermon dealt with the world, the universe, and God, and especially the relationship between the three. He pointed out however, that although there are explanations of some of the works of God, He cannot be known by us without an effort on our part.

A A .vp 5.13 A , CLQSE-UP OF THE MEMORIAL CROSS Archdcacon Bickersteth with the Headmaster THE WAR MEMORIAL FUND After two 'months of campaigning the receipts for this fund now total seventy-five thousand dollars. Many T.C.S. people have not yet been approached, and it is earnestly hoped that the total by the end of June will be one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Some Old Boys and Friends have been extremely generous in their contributions. The parents of boys have been particularly kind. Of the seventy-five thousand dollars already contri- buted fifty thousand has been given by twenty-five sub- scribersg some three hundred other Old Boys and Friends have given the balance of twenty-five thousand. As we have nearly twenty-five hundred T.C.S. names on our list it is obvious that there should be many more donors to the fund. There seems to be an impression in some quarters that if two hundred and fifty thousand or three hundred thou- sand dollars should be given, it will all be spent on the fabric of the building. The Governing Body has no inten- tion of doing that. It is fully realized that an endowment fund is an absolute necessity if the School is to weather the storms of the future, and a proportion of the fund will be devoted to that purpose. At a splendid campaign meeting organized by the Ladies' Guild and held at Trinity College, Toronto, in February, Bishop Renison gave an inspiring address. He mentioned that nothing could be so fitting for a memorial to our gallant lads as a Chapel, and he expressed the hope that the contributions would enable us to proceed with the building very soon even if it could not be completed in every detail for some years. Building costs are just double the amount they were in 1939, but contracting firms confidently expect them to be much less within a year. Have you made your contribution? If not please send it Without delay. Have you given the most you can afford, realizing the nature of this memorial? If not, will you add to your subscription? 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 429 Qchool. 5 '0 'W Y M NOTES 9'X r .ii Gifts to the School Dick Wotherspoon C25-'41J has sent his First Team sweater-coat, and no more acceptable gift could be imagined in these days when sweater-coats are not obtainable. fl? :lil SF if 1 R.

S 1 Il 'K Q Peter MacKinnon V37-'41J brought down two almost new School blazers, which are being put to very good use by a couple of boys. The Headmaster Hono1u'ed The Headmaster was informed early this year that he had been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, London, England. This Society was founded in 1754 for the encouragement of arts, manufactures and commerce . It has taken a leading part in promoting education and ex- panding the basis of it. H. R. H. Prince Albert was for many years the Presi- dent of the Society and under his direction the Society organized the Great Exhibition of 1851. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q The Society holds weekly meetings from November to May at which a lecture on some important subject is given, it publishes a journal fortnightly, it offers scholarships and bursaries to students, it awards the Albert Medal, and it interests itself in such matters as the preservation of ancient buildings, afforestation, improvements in naviga- tion, the teaching of the Arts, etc. The Archdeacon's Address On January 24, the School was honoured by a visit from the Archdeacon of Canterbury who gave a short ad- dress to the School in the gymnasium. Archdeacon Bickersteth mentioned how much he was enjoying his visit to Canada, a country where many hun- dreds of English children had found happy homes during the War. He said how glad he was to be able to come to the School, especially since the Archbishop had been unable to visit it when he came to Canada last year. He spoke of Canterbury Cathedral and of its great irreplaceable architecture which the Germans had tried so hard to destroy. He told us that many of the buildings round about had been demolished and that only by a miracle had the cathedral escaped with minor damage. One of the buildings that was destroyed was the school which was supposed to have been founded in 597. He mentioned that they were trying to raise 31,200,000 to re- pair the Cathedral and that he was sure that sum could be raised by the time the building materials became avail- able. During the War, the Archdeacon said he had had the pleasure of showing many Canadian soldiers round the cathedral and that these men seemed to have real interest in the beauty of the building. Canadian troops also par- ticipated in a huge service of prayer in the Cathedral just before D day. He said he hoped that if ever any boys from the School went to England they would visit the Cathedral. 1G TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD He then asked in the name of the Archbishop for a half holiday. The Headmaster granted his request amid much applause from the School. We feel greatly honoured to have received a visit from so distinguished a man as Archdeacon Bickersteth. The Toll Travelogue On the evening of February 6, Mr. and Mrs. Toll paid the School a visit to present one of their Travelogues. Mr. Toll told us about the trip he and his brother Ellsworth had made through South America in the late 30's. His talk was illustrated by some excellent colour slides and movies, which revealed to us the beauties of South American lands. It wasn't long before we were all travelling with the Toll brothers on their trip through Mexico and South America, where we saw bull-fights in Mexico, head-hunters of the upper Amazon, the reliable donkey of the Andes, the en- chanting towns and villages of Peru and Chile, and finally, to top everything, the most beautiful city in the World, Rio de Janeiro. We are most grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Toll for telling us so much about the lands beneath the equator, and hope that they will return many times in the future, to tell us more about their interesting trips across the world. Film Committee At a meeting of the School Council, on Sunday, February 2, it was decided to appoint boys to act as a film committee. Mr. Hass is chairman of the committee and the members are Hyde, Gaunt, McIntyre, Tessier, Mc- Gregor i, Rogers ii. The duties of the committee are: to select programmes for showing in the Hall, to select instructional films and to recommend films for the School to see in the town theatre. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 Due to the poor films which are usually shown in the town theatre on week-ends, arrangements will be made by which the School may be granted leave to see good films on week-days. On the recommendation of this committee the School was granted leave to see Blue Skies on Tuesday, February 11, and Two Years Before the Mast on Tuesday, February 18. The School looks forward to seeing more good movies than before, both in the town and in the Hall. Sports Committee At a meeting of the School Council on February 2, it was decided to form a Sports Committee. Mr .Hodgetts is chairman and the members are the Captains of First Team Football, Soccer, Hockey, Basketball, Cricket, Squash, Gym., Swimming, Track, Oxford Cup and Skiing. The Headmaster is a member ex officio. The duties of the committee will be to discuss and examine the School's sports equipment and facilities, and make recommendations as to any changes or additions which they think necessary. S We hope that the formation of this committee will lead to a furtherance of all sports in the School. The Pancake Toss Again, on Shrove Tuesday, the annual Pancake Toss was held in the Gym. This old custom was adapted in 1913 from Westminster School in England. The Head- master said at the beginning of the ceremony that we are probably the only school in Canada which has continued to make this peculiar practice an annual event. Mr. Grace threw the putty over a rope, strung across the gym. and the scramble began. Strange as it may seem, 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD at least half of the pancake vanished immediately and the contestants were left to grapple over the remainder. With about one minute to go in the fight, it was discovered that Cox i, was the individual who was responsible for the dis- appearance of the largest part of the cake. He was soon at the bottom of the pile and stayed there until time was called. Despite this final effort on the part of the others, Cox had collected by far the heaviest part of the putty and the 955.00 prize was presented to him by Mrs. Ketchum. Afterwards he and VIB, the form that he represented, proceeded in triumph over to Tuck. l-1 The Half-Term Break 1 Yes, six weeks had passed very quickly, and the great day had come, for on February 21 the half-term break began. By eleven o'clock, only half an hour after the end of classes, there was scarcely a soul to be seen, many had left on buses for Toronto, while the remainder had left by train for Montreal. About twenty boys stayed at School over the week- end. A short service was held in the School Chapel on Sunday morning, after which a number of boys Went out to the Northumberland Ski Development for the day. The break was concluded on Tuesday night, with the return of the main body of the School, all looking refreshed and ready for the few weeks remaining until the Easter holi- days. Movies in the Hall On Saturday, March 16, movies were shown in the Hall once again. This Our Canada was the name of the first selection. It is a reel showing some of the more im- portant parts of Canada and it certainly gave each mem- ber of the audience a chance to let everyone know when his home town was being shown. The next part of the pro- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 12 gramme was a film photographed in technicolor called Trappers of the Sea . This showed us how lobster fishing is carried on in the waters around Nova Scotia, and some of the hardships that the fishermen must go through in order to catch them. A third selection was entitled The Valley of the Tennessee . This tells of how this district was changed from backward, useless country to what it is to-day. We were also shown interesting shorts on Win- ter Sports and Water Polo. We should like to thank the Movie Committee for obtaining the evening's entertainment for us. We shall cer- tainly be looking forward to the next showing. l. The Conservatory Trio On Thursday, February 27, the School was honoured by a visit from the Conservatory Trio. The trio consisted of Miss Mary Ann Paul, a most talented young violinist, Bill Hossack who, although in his third year of mathe- matics and physics at Toronto University, still finds time to do excellent work as 'cellist, and George Crum, the pianist, who is now studying at the Toronto Conservatory of Music. We were especially glad to welcome George Crum as he is an Old Boy of the School and is doing ex- ceptionally well in his musical studies. The programme was very well chosen and because of its good balance of light and classical pieces appealed to the whole audience, which consisted of the School as well as many visitors from the town. The programme included part of a trio by Schubert, and a Haydn trio both of which were excellently played. There was also the Hungarian Dance No. 6 by Brahms and, in a somewhat lighter strain, a very clever arrangement of some of the best known melodies from Jerome Kern's great musical comedy Show- boat . Each of the trio played a solo, Miss Paul playing Gardos by Monti, Mr. Hossack played Cavatina by Raff and Mr. Crum played Scherzo by Chopin. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The whole audience appreciated the programme immensely as was shown by the prolonged applause. We hope that the trio will be able to visit the School again soon and we feel sure from their excellent performance that they will go a long way in their musical careers. Professor Breckenridge On March 14, Dr. Breckenridge, assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Toronto visited the School. The professor, who attended U.T.S. and R.M.C. before taking his degree at Toronto and doing post-graduate Work at Cambridge, gave the members of the Sixth Form a short talk on Chemical Engineering as a profession. The professor told us that in Canada's numerous chemical industries such as pulp and paper and smelting, many chemical engineers are employed either in the re- search laboratories, actually in charge of the machines or in the design and development section. It is in the latter job that the majority of chemical engineers are employed and their work includes drawing up plans and models for transforming laboratory reactions into plant production. Dr. Breckenridge went on to give us some of the per- sonal and technical qualifications which he considered necessary for a successful career, after which the boys asked many questions which Dr. Breckenridge kindly answered. We feel sure that everybody in sixth form now has a clearer understanding of the work done by chemical en- gineers and We should like to thank Dr. Breckenridge for his very instructive talk. l. . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 REPORT OF THE HONORARY SECRETARY OF THE T.C.S. LADIES' GUILD, MONTREAL Given at the Annual Meeting Held on March 6 I have the honour to present the third Annual Report of the Trinity College School Ladies' Guild, Montreal. Our membership, which consists of mothers and wives of boys and Old Boys from Quebec and the Maritimes, has increased steadily, and we now have 117 paid-up members, sixteen of whom are Life Members. There have been two meetings of the Executive Com- mittee during the year. We have continued sending to the Toronto Guild our fee of 25c on each membership, to cover expenses incurred by them on our behalf. We also sent them S15 as our share of a presentation gift to Miss Fick, upon her retire- ment as Nurse-in-charge of the School hospital. To Mr. Ketchum We sent S150 for the Montreal Bur- sary. This is the third year that we have been able to make this contribution, and we are pleased that each year the amount has been enlarged. The choice of who is to benefit is left entirely to Mr. Ketchum, and this year it is given to a boy of promise whose father, a T.C.S. Old Boy, was killed during the war. When the War Memorial Campaign opened the Execu- tive felt that this was a special project to which our savings could Well be contributed, and we forwarded a cheque for S500 to be added to the contribution list with the inscription From the T.C.S. Ladies' Guild, Montreal, in memory of the boys who gave their lives for their country . This year sees the retirement of Mrs. McLennan, Mrs. Grafftey, Mrs. Sutherland, and our President, Mrs. Fisher, as officers of the Guild. To our retiring President we ex- tend our appreciation for her leadership, and our thanks to all these members, whose interest we feel sure will con- tinue in the Guild as a permanent link with the School. Respectfully submitted, Harrie B. Sutherland. 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD TREASUREIVS REPORT Mme.

MORRIS In September, 1919, a veteran of five years' active service overseas returned to Canada to face the problem that every veteran faces after his discharge, the problem of life work. However, this veteran, being a lover of war- fare, was not long in deciding to enter the educational field. His crusade against illiteracy began in King's College School, Windsor, Nova Scotia, where after two short years, he found the educational standard to be in a state of de- cided literacy, and the life quiet and uneventful. He there- fore sought some institution where this situation would not be prevalent. Surely there were schools where his resist- ance to hardship would be put more to the test! His highest hopes were fulfilled by the discovery of just such a place near Port Hope, Ontario-a boys' boarding school in the country. Mr. Morris spent his first year at T.C.S. in School residence with twenty-one boysg but the first year proved to be the last, for he decided that even married life was better than this. In 1922, therefore, he lost his freedom to a Bluenoser, and jumped from School residence into private residence. Mr. Morris started off teaching, Alge- bra. Geometry, Trigonometry, Physics, Chemistry, Latin, French. and even a little History! Newcomers have always been given sufficient Work to do at T.C.S.! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHGOL RECORD 19 In 1922 Mr. Morris undertook a formidable responsi- bility. Middleside cricket was nearly always composed mainly of boys with a minimum of interest in the game, and it was always difficult to combine a healthy spirit and a high standard of cricket on this team. For eighteen years Mr. Morris carried out this hard job admirably, and when in 1944, he handed it over to Mr. Gwynne-Timothy whom he met twenty-eight years ago at Kings College, Windsor, Middleside cricket had a greatly improved spirit. Many Old Boys will remember Mr. Morris' Wood- burner , or the covered wagon , as it was affectionately christened by the Junior School boys who used to go for picnics in it. It was a 1926 sport touring, Buick model, and performed many a useful chore around the School. Finally in 1940, Mr. Morris donated it to the Lions Club of Port Hope for their social service of collecting waste paper for the war effort. Whether or not the Wood- burner still exists is not known, but it seems doubtful. Perhaps some of us wonder about the origin of Mr. Morris' great fur hat, which is a familiar sight preceding him up the hill to School each morning during the winter. It is a plucked beaver which was once sacrificed to make a muff for Mrs. Morris. However, the muff one day lay on the table beside a pair of scissors, and Mr. Morris came in with frozen ears. Anyway, it is fulfilling a useful func- tion. Among Mr. Morris' most vivid recollections of past years there stands out the unsolved mystery of how a rooster once got into a locker in the study room and was able to emerge during study. There were several unique clubs such as the C.C.C.C. CCross Corridor Cricket Clubj which was very active on rainy days and from nine-thirty to bedtime, and a secret society known as the B.T.U. I only the members knew the meaning of the lettersl. The B.T.U. held all its meetings outdoors in the bushes along the Tuck road, and had all its paraphenalia hidden in a culvert! 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mr. Morris, like every other T.C.S. master, has a tit.le . It is not known when the name Hard Man first came into existence, but it is felt that it originated in the same way as did that of Little John of Sherwood Forest. A much more suitable adjective at Trinity would be dur- able! For his loyal and faithful service to the School for a quarter of a century, Mr. Morris was last June presented with a solid gold watch from the Governing Body, and in 1945 he had a term's holiday and a well-earned rest. DRAMATICS Almost since the founding of the School, dramatics have formed an important part of the extra-curricular activities of the boys. Dr. Johnson tells of entertainment put on by-the boys at Weston, consisting of a farce The Slasher and Crasher followed by two scenes from Shakes- peare. In the early days some of the female parts were acted by masters' wives to make the roles more natural. Mrs. Collinson helped a great deal in this way. This practice was revived for a while in 1938, but now all parts are acted by the boys themselves. In the last ten or fifteen years, there has been no organized dramatics club. Those who were interested got together because they liked the fun of putting on a play. Modern plays such as The Middle Watch , Captain Applejackn. Tons of Money , It Pays to Advertise , and The Dover Road were put on and even Shakespeare's Twelfth Night was once produced with the Elizabethan type of staging. Besides these, many one act plays and Gilbert and Sullivan works such as Cox and Box , H.M.S. Pinafore , and The Pirates of Penzance have been pre- sented. Usually it has been the practice to present the main School play in the spring, and a variety show, known as the Christmas Entertainment, in December. Up until TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 1938, this Christmas Entertainment was usually provided by selected New Boys, with one act plays by more ex- perienced actors occasionally added, but in 1939 the Second Years produced the whole show and that has been the practice ever since. Last year Captain Applejackn was revived with great success. Consequently, under the leadership of Mr. Thomp- son, its director, the cast banded together to found an official dramatics club. The T.C.S. Dramatic Society was formed not only to foster a high standard of dramatics at the School, but to study various aspects of the theatre. Plays are read and written, and it is hoped that in the future the Society will be able to present some of its own compositions. Speakers are invited to speak to the Club about various branches of dramatics including lighting. sound effects, stage-craft and make-up as well as acting. Meetings are held once every fortnight in the Michaelmas and Lent terms. In short, not only does the Society put on plays but provides a chance for the boys to develop their interests and find out more about the many aspects of dramatics. The Club's membership is limited to twenty to make sure that only those really interested will be mem- bers, but acting is not restricted to its members only. For executive purposes there is a committee of five: President. Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and an additional committee member. The Club is run entirely by the boys, with the help of a master, chosen as adviser by the mem- bers themselves. The Society hopes to develop more in- terest in dramatics in the School, provide an outlet for the energies of those deeply interested, and to raise the stan- dard of plays produced at T.C.S. Of course, because of the lack of an auditorium in the present buildings, there are difficulties in staging. A canvas fit-up theatre, with the boxing ring as the stage, is used in the gymnasium. Unfortunately, although it pro- vides ample room backstage and permits a performance in the School, the acoustics are bad and it is possible to 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD erect it for about two Weeks only during the year without interfering with the proper use of the gym. The stage hands under Mr. Maier who have the arduous task of put- ting up the stage deserve due credit for their cheerful toil behind the scenes. Much of the success of the plays is due to the excellent work of Mr. Key's Art Classes who do the scene painting. Rehearsals usually begin in January and increase in tempo so that by the time the performance is a few weeks off, the boys spend nearly all their spare time preparing for the play. The Dramatic Society hopes to put on a full length play at Easter each year and in addition present a one act play at Christmas. The Club has taken over the or- ganization of the Christmas Entertainment, though the latter remains essentially a variety show voluntarily pre- sented by any group in the School. It is through their first experience with the stage at T.C.S., that many boys have come to enjoy amateur act- ing. Some, like Hugh Henderson, have gone on to greater distinction, but all have come to appreciate the enjoyment and recreation provided by this source of culture. --R. W. Watts, Form VIA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 Sci-tool. a,!,,5s,,, DEBATES Primitive Man vs. Modern Man An extensive advertising campaign announced the third debate of the season. It was resolved, That primi- tive man was happier than the man of to-day . The debate opened with a brief explanation of the resolution by the speaker, Mr. Hyde. The first speaker for the government, Wismer, made a very humorous speech which brought out the caveman's excellent health and fortitude. The first speaker for the opposition, Barton, in a more serious strain, delivered the most effective speech of the evening. He brought out the point that it was bet- ter to aim high and just to miss your goal, than to aim low and attain your low standard. He said that therefore modern man achieved greater satisfaction and truer hap- piness than did the primitive man, bringing in quotations from Browning and Aristotle to back up his argument. The second speaker for the government, Thompson iii, elabo- rated on and clarified the points brought out by Wismer, while Campbell ii, the second speaker for the opposition, further expanded Barton's argument, and added a pleasant touch of humour. Black i for the government, and Powell for the op- position summed up the arguments of their respective sides, and refuted several of their opponents' points. After a rebuttal by Wismer, the debate was opened to the house and some good speeches were made from the floor. The vote of the house was then taken, it was 48-31 in favour of the opposition. Mr. Snelgrove, speaking for the judges, 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD gave many helpful suggestions to 'both sides, and announced that the unanimous decision of the judges was in favour of the opposition. Personality vs. Knowledge On Thursday night, February 13, the fourth debate of the season was held in the Hall. The motion, Resolved the personality is of greater value to the individual than knowledge . Bruce opened the debate for the government, by giving us a general definition of personality, saying that it was really a means of seeing a person's character. He claimed that employers were more impressed by per- sonality than by simply knowledge, and gave illustrations to prove his point. Livingstone, the first speaker for the opposition, pointed out that a good personality is obtained only from a good general knowledge, and cited one or two good examples. He closed by saying that personality was useful, but knowledge essential. Goering, the government's second speaker, further ex- panded Bruce's argument and brought out the point that a good personality makes recreation pleasure. The second speaker for the opposition, Sanborn, further entrenched the argument of the opposition by showing us that knowledge was absolutely essential in almost every vocation, while personality was of secondary importance. Dame, the last speaker for the government made the best speech of the debate, arguing that a good personality is essential for getting along with others, which is in itself far more im- portant than knowledge. His arguments were backed up by some well-chosen quotations. Pangman, the closing speaker for the opposition, effectively refuted some of the government's points, and then summed up the argument of the opposition. After a rebuttal by Bruce, the debate was opened to the house. Some good speeches were made from the floor, then the house moved in favour of the government. Mr. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 Dale, speaking for the judges, criticized the debaters for a lack of good points, but commended their delivery. Finally, he announced that the judges had moved in favour of the opposition. Are Examinations a Fair Test of Ability? On Tuesday, March 4, a debate was held in the Hall. The attendance was small, no doubt due to the fact that everybody was studying hard for exams. This seems somewhat ironical when one considers the subject: Re- solved that examinations are an unfair test of the pupil's ability g but the boys no doubt knew that the future policy of the School would not be governed by the outcome of the debate. Mr. Wells, the honourable member from Oakville, opened the debate as first speaker for the government. He pointed out that tests are unfair to those who play games a.nd sometimes miss their chances to study for them. Mr. Hyde countered for the opposition proving from statistics that those who do well in their exams get better jobs than those who fail. Mr. Fennel spoke next on the unfairness of examina- tions in which pupils get so excited they cannot think. The second speaker for the opposition Mr. French enlarged on the points of his colleague and brought in several new ones of his own. The last speaker for the government, Mr. Brewer, referred to the irregularities in the marking of papers such as English and history. Mr. Lawson now spoke and made several points even if his similes were a trifle obscure. Mr. Wells made his rebuttal and ended the formal part of the debate. The vote of the House was taken after several short speeches from the floor and resulted in a 26 to 16 victory for the opposition. 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The judges gave their decision in favour of the govern- ment and gave several helpful suggestions to the speakers. The debate was interesting and many good ideas were bs ought forward but it lacked anything outstanding and a good deal too much time was directed to small, insigni- ficant details. .ii-l Housfe Notes THE BOOK OF BAGGUS AND THE SCOTTIANS ' OR BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES And it came to pass that in those days there were two houses, even the house of Bethunus Superbus and the house of Brentus Ridiculus, and the greatest of these was the house of Bethunus Superbus. And the leaders of the house of Bethunus Superbus were William of Bermuda and John Americanus, yea verily and Janus Magnus, even un- to Nevillus Prefectus, and the leaders of the house of Brentus Ridiculus were Harrius Humblus, surnamed Honestus, and Rufus of Confusia. And when the leaders of the house of Bethunus Super- bus had come to themselves, they spake one to another, saying, Who is it who can tell us how great we are? Or who it is who can show unto us the magnitude of our glory? Let us arise, therefore, and go unto the leaders of the house of Brentus Ridiculus, even unto Harrius Humblus and unto Rufus of Confusiag let us, therefore, arise and go unto these same and let us say unto them, 'Dahh, lwhich is to say, being interpreted, 'O ignorant ones'J when will ye understand? These many years have ye sought to con- tend against that which is decreed invincible. Verily, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD QT verily say we unto you, it is hard for ye to kick against Rox'. They said, therefore, Let us go even unto the house of Brentus Ridicu1us . And they arose, and girded their loins, and took their gas-masks in their hands, and went forth, and lowered themselves, and entered into the house of Brentus Ridi- culus, and came unto the room which is numbered five score and one, even unto the abode of Humblus. And when they had knocked, they entered, and found therein he of Confusia lying on a bed, yea even that Rufus of whom it is said, He shall not toil nor travail, neither shall he do any manner of work, but shall ever proclaim with a loud voice unto such as will hear him how much he hath to do . And they stood by the bed, and with one accord spake unto him that lay upon the bed, saying unto him, Where- fore liest thou here, O ignorant one? Dost thou not know that there are trophies without number to be won in battle from the house of Bethunus Superbus, even that house which hath held title to these trophies since time im- memorial? And he that lay upon the bed said, Rowdy Dow . Then spake they unto him again, saying, Dost thou not recall how in number of trophies thou has been con- tinually beaten by those of the house of Bethunus Super- bus? And again he said unto them, Rowdy Dow . Then spake they unto him yet again, saying unto him, Bethink thyself of past years, thou of Confusia, how that thy best bowlers have striven in vain, do thou but re- member how that he of Bermuda did raise his bat, yea, Verily, his bat of oiled willow, and did mightily smite the ball therewithg and indeed was it also Well smitten, that it did rapidly ascend to so great height that thou wist not whither it went. Do thou but recall how that this same. who of late so mightily smote, did again bowl unto thy batsmen in such manner as they could neither withstand nor resist, but that they fell prey to the skill of such of the QS TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tc-am of the house of Bethunus Superbus as were scattered around. Bethink thee, thou who in football didst lay hands on the ball, and didst seek to make thy Way through the assembled multitude of the team of this same house, bethink thee how that thou Wast with both force and violence brought down, yea even to the ground, to the feet of those whom thou hadst thought to beat. Do thou but remember how thou Wast against thine own will preci- pitated in such manner against the boards of the rink that thou wouldst fain have continued on thy Way through the boards, but that they were securely fastened in view that thou shouldst suffer accordingly . Even thus spake they as they stood before the bed, in the abode of Humblus. And he that lay upon the bed spake yet a third time, saying unto them that stood near, Rowdy Dow . Then said they among themselves, therefore, It is to no avail. And when they had looked on him, they went out from the room, and departed from him, and journeyed forth, and came again unto their own house, both William of Bermuda, and John Americanus, yea and even also Janus Magnus and Nevillus Prefectus, and they entered again into the house of Bethunus Superbus. And behold, even as they entered in, came there unto them a great multitude of new boys, and they stood before them, neither spake they a word unto them, but stood be- fore them in silence. And suddenly there broke forth as it were a rushing, mighty blast of hot air, and the multi- tude of the new boys was staggered by the blast, from the greatest of them even also unto the least. Therefore ran they away in every direction, yea to the East and to the South, and yea to the North also ran they, and to the West, and did that which it was bidden unto them to do. And the leaders of the house of Bethunus Superbus made their way each unto his abode, and they entered therein, each to his own chamber, and studied further how they should proceed in the matter. -R. D. Butterfield, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD QQ BRENT HOUSE NOTES QSome light was shed upon the mystery surrounding the recent disappearance of the Globe and Mail thought- recording machine, when a sheet of paper with the follow- ing words printed on it, was found crumpled up on the bottom of a disused bath in Bethune House.J Well, here's the gym comp. this year. Boy, look at the crowd all over the place and up in the gallery. I'l1 bet they all came, just to see me do my stuff. It's about time they realized how good I am. There goes Jarvis. Listen to those guys in the gallery clap for him. They think he's good just because he has all that muscle on him. iSnortl Wait till the crowd sees meg they don't know I took a Charles Atlas course! Well I'll be hanged, some of those other guys in Brent like McDowell and Thompson aren't bad at this either. Gee, look at Peanut Panet. Even the little guys are good in Brent House. But they've seen nothing yet. Ah, now it's my turn. I'll show 'em. Oops! Missed that upstart. Oh well, I'll just give the judges a bright smile and that'll do the trick. Well I'll be darned! Hyde clapped for me anyway. A fine fellow, Harry. None better! Those guys in Brent aren't such bad fellows, come to think of it. Why is it that all the good guys go there, anyway. Aw heck, fMoanJ Jarvis hasn't missed an exercise yet. Darn it all, Brent never does! What chance have We got against them. QSnarl, snarll. How can those guys in Brent be so solid. In boxing you get worn out just hitting them and you haven't a chance against fellows like Gaunt. fGroanJ. They're pretty rugged in hockey too.

Of course, come to think of it. I never do, because it's so stuffy in my room. Oh gee. I forgot. We've got a Geometry test to-morrow fMoanJ. I'll have to get into the hospital to-morrow by putting the thermometer on the radiator again. Gosh, I wonder what I'll get that dadratted fag of mine to do to-morrow. He's useless. He always does just what he's told to, darn it ally he's in Brent. Oh why will be never make a mistake? All those dopes in Brent are like that, you can't find a fault with them. I can't even have the pleasure of giving my own fag a good bawl- ing out. fSnarl, snarll. But I fixed him to-day, and he hasn't a chance. I gave him enough work to keep him going for a week, and it's to be done by to-morrow. fSnarD. That'll get him. fSnarl, snarlj. Oh boy, there goes the bell at last. I guess I'l1 just wander over to the Common Room. Why do they have to have it over in Brent House? I don't like the long walk and besides I hate the fresh air over there. I'm not used to it. There's C.S.'s office. Why the heck does he have to be so accurate. It isn't fair. It gives the Brent boys an unfair advantage. Besides he gave me a rotten mark in Algebra so I'1l get even with him. CSnarl, snarll. I'll ask him to solve a really tough problemg I've got it all pick- ed out. There! Well, by golly, he solved it in a couple of minutes! What can you do about a man like that? fMoanJ. Oh boy, there's a nice crowd down by that notice board, and there's Rufus in it. He gave me a terrific body TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 check in that house game and boy, do those guys give hard checks.

QYak, yak, yakl. Oh golly, here comes my fag. I-Ie's done the work I set him. My gosh, this Brent efficiency is appalling. Gee, this room sounds quiet. I'1l just take a peek in- side. Well I'll be darned! fMoanJ. Prentice l?J and Wil- liamson are studying! Now I've seen everything. Don't they know study is a time set aside for fooling? That's the trouble with these guys over here.

It is the sea I remember best, the way its colour changed. seeming to match my moods, from green to grey and then to azure blue. During the days when the sun was shining and everything was going well for me, the sea was most beautiful. It appeared to dance in the sun, perhaps happy that God had thought fit to show that he could make the world a joyous place. On these days of splendour I would stand on the white sand for many an hour, feeling the fresh sea air with its salty tang as it blew towards the land and murmured in the high grass of the cliff top, watching the ocean with the sun sparkling on the small wave tops. On other days, when life did not run so happily for me, a storm would rage in answer to my mood. While others huddled around the fires inside their houses, I would stand on the cliff top and watch the great grey rollers thunder to the shore, the crests would look like fleecy wool when far away, yet how powerfully they smashed upon the land. How grim, foreboding and different the ocean now seemed when compared to the days the sun had shone. I would turn about, after a while, and return to the house. bent forward against the wind. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q13 My room was in an attic turret on one side of the building, and every moment of the day and night I could hear the incessant murmur of the sea. I knew the sounds so well that when I awoke in the morning I could feel the mood it was in and I knew the colour it would be. The sea possessed a great power over meg its strength was so great that even in my sleep I dreamt of the waves and the ocean wind. Often, during the day, I roamed the sandy shore with a feeling that I was searching for something of which I knew nothing but of which I sensed much. The ocean seemed to whisper ceaselessly in my earg I knew it murmured a message because of my close affinity to it. In the never-ending roar of the breakers I seemed to hear a deep voice speaking to me. It asked if I thought my life on earth was Worth livingg what can one man hope to do? But perhaps it was only my imagination that led me to believe that I heard this. The symphony of wind and Wave had perhaps suggested words to my Wondering mind. I knew then that what I sought for was a happiness and peace of mind that I was unable to find in the turmoil of the world. I thought of the sea-so vast and powerful, yet serene in omnipotence. Then I thought of the voice I had heard While Wandering along the shore. Was it an invitation to give my soul to the ocean and live in security in the sea? A strange thought, but one that to me was bright with the hope of a new life. Here, among mortals, my existence was drab and monotonousg only when I was near the sea was I happy. Perhaps to be a part of the sea was my destiny and the only way my spirit would be free. I write these Words in my room in the turret and I hear the sound of the waves-I know the ocean is blue and happy and I must join it. God, care for my family and bless them all. If SF if i :lf News Item Halifax, N.S. CC.P.D--The body of an unidentified man was recovered from the ocean near White Cliff, Nova 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Scotia, by the crew of the fishing boat Spirit of the Sea. It is presumed death occurred from accidental drowning and no inquest will be held. -R. Brinckman, Form IVA. TI-IE LAST HALF-HOUR He strode among the shadows ending Only at the sky, Whose silent waves relaxed, extending To the stars on high. He walked the streets that curl and twist Through fog and smoky breath, Through and through the streets of mist - - - The way from life to death! Past a tavern, past a fountain - - - Discordant notes of life In the shadow of a mountain Of fear and inner strife. Past the sounds of life that shiver On a floor of glass, Past these sounds and to a river But this he did not pass. O rolling torrent, flowing river, I give to thee my all, With but one arrow from thy quiver, Let all my sorrow fall. For life is but a fleeting flash Upon the screen of heaveng Coloured only by the lash, And by the vices seven.

TOTAL PEACE The long, uneven procession dwindled to a halt. The chapel, filled and quiet, waited. In a moment the organ broke from a prelude into the strains of Alleluia and drew the congregation to its feet. Soon the chapel resoimded as the voices of a multitude were raised in unison to praise God on this Armistice Day. After the hymn the minister decreed a two minute silence to remember and honour those who gave their lives for the cause of freedom. The chapel was hushed, charged with thought. if if If 8 1 Many years ago a revolution occurred. Unlike its predecessors however, this revolution, although born in one country was to affect the world. It was not a happen- ing of chance, yet its beginnings were unlooked for, and while its origins were in England, it was not long after that it spread to Europe and America. The Industrial Revolution was to change civilization. It spread quickly at first. Factories and machines were soon common words. Smoke-stacks and chimneys became increasingly evident, cities sprang into being over- night. What used to be a village became a metropolis. what used to be a tannery became an industrial monument. The sailor who used to climb the rigging of a schooner was set to Work shovelling coal into the fires of an ocean steamer. The cobbler and blacksmith were employed by factories to turn out domestic goods. Changes were every- where evident as economic progress discarded old produc- tion methods and turned to the new way of life. The 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD chimneys and smoke-stacks of industry heralded the ad- vent of a new epoch in time. Yet with this economic progress what was the pro- gress of man? Had he changed for the better? Had the people of the world learned their lesson? For a few de- cacgs it looked as though they hed. The field of bottle was forgotten in the new cause of industrialization. But suddenly came another answer to the question. In 1899 a bloody purge was witnessed by the country which had gained the greatest mechanized superiority. Within a few months one of the worst slaughters in history obliterated all marks of progress. This, however, was only the be- ginning. Fourteen years later the world witnessed the commencement of the greatest wars since the beginning of time. The chaos and strife, death and destruction put any social advancement back a century. On fields of battle where thousands once died, millions were slain. Where war had meant armies it now meant nations. A war of mechanization was a total war. The Revolution which had brought progress in one field, brought destruction in an- other. Was this the price of economic advancement? Or was mechanization able to overcome social defects and help build from the ashes of war the foundations of peace? Could it help to build a society of love and peace, a Utopia? The answer lay in men's hearts, in their minds, in their souls. Here lay the answer to progress, true progress. For in the words of Lincoln True progress comes from the soul . if if Sk it it The minister announced that the recessional hymn would be sung and the congregation rose. The organ began to break into I vow to thee my country and once again the chapel resounded with the sound of many voices. Slowly the choir moved down the aisle. The hymn was almost over yet the last words rang in my ears. And her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The choir was out of the chapel. The minister said a few sentences and then the service came to a conclusion. Once again the chapel was hushed and quiet. -D. A. Campbell, Form VIB. lllil-1.11. MAN'S ANSWER The moon stared down with that same baleful look As he had worn for ages past, the moon That had made the waters of the Nile to shine In days of her renown, and yet had seen Empires falling, and pearls of gaiety Turn black with hate and dry and crack and gape To swallow up the fools they once had served. And he had seen the king upon the hilltop, The serf at meagre harvest in the field. And in both had wrought a pattern of magic dreams. Yet from each had he taken, in exchange, His tithe of longing thought and wondering eyes, Now as his long grey fingers touched the snow, And bathed the roof-tops clean, in dead of night, He flung a challenge at the foot of man- To show him something perfect on the earth, And his rays played a symphony of light Upon the dark that frowned beneath the eaves. Then through the shadowed stillness of the moon-mist The sleigh-bell music of the winter came, And the music was a million smiling jewels That sparkled in the pools of snowy silence. And then were gone-but now the moon had fled. This was man's answer, for here was perfection. And in the gloom the lonely stree-lamps shone, Like lost souls weeping tears of golden sand. -C. M. Taylor ii, Form VA. n111 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD REUNION The fire was burning low. A very old man sat be- fore it in a large easy-chair. The flickering orange light played over his wrinkled features. At his feet lay a large, black dog who slept with his head buried in his paws. The old man was thinking-his thoughts travelled back over the space of many years. He was thinking of his youth in England at the tiny country village where he, John Merton, had been born. He remembered how, at the age of twenty, he had come to America to try and make his fortune. And he had made it. Finding himself clever with money he started a broker- age office. By the time he was fifty years old he was the richest man in America, head of John Merton and Co., financiers. Then had come the crash of '29. Almost bankrupt, and broken in spirit, he retired. Then his son, also a financial wizard, had taken command of the company and brought it back to power. He thought how proud he was of his only child, the very famous Charles Merton. And now-now he knew he was dying. His eyes closed and once more his mind wandered. He seemed to be standing on top of a high mountain, looking down to a lovely valley. All around him were tall pines filling the air with a pleasant fragrance. Below, a blue river wound its way through the land. He felt very peace- ful-what a beautiful country, he thought. He turned, and coming toward him he saw his son. A pang of fear stabbed his heart-how is he here? For he understood where he was. It is all right, something inside him said, all is well .... The old man did not awaken from his sleep. The spring air bore unheard into the room the cries of a newsboy. Read all about it! Big Wall Street crash! Merton and Co. bankrupt! Charles Merton suicides! -R. Brinckman, Form IVA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BUT ONE LIFE With sword and musket enters he in strife With killing dagger, With dart and arrow, and with thirsty knife: The dying stagger. With lust he kills, and by the number killed He deems his power, And in his turn his savage heart is stilled When comes his hour. He took the lives of others while he was: Now he is slain. In vain his women weep for him, because He cannot come again. He had the power to take man's greatest gift, Or let man live, Man's vengeful hand to kill is ever swift, But life man cannot give. -R. D. Butterfield ,Form VIA. THE GREATEST INVENTION Consider the many millions of inventions that make our life what it is to-day in this age of scientific wonders. Yet the basis of the great advance of our scientific civiliza- tion was laid by an unknown genius who lived thousands of years ago. Though modern science owed everything to him, his name is found neither in our history books nor in museums, nor is the exact period in which he lived known. His invention has had a profound influence down through the ages, for without it the machine age could not have arrived, and yet it is so commonplace that we do not usually think of it as the greatest invention. It is the wheel. 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The most familiar type of wheel is of course that used in every type of vehicle, but the wheel also forms an essential part of nearly every kind of mechanism or machinery. Defined, a wheel is essentially a ring attach- ed to an axle around which it revolves. Almost since time immemorial it has been used in vehicles to avoid friction with the ground, because of its ability to be in motion con- tinuously. Its invention, lost in antiquity, was probably made in several different civilizations at the same time. The Egyptians and Assyrians are the first on record to have chariots and we use wheels for the same basic reason to-day, on trains, cars, and other forms of overland trans- portation. But equally important, if not more so, is the use of the wheel on its axis as an important form of mec- hanical power. In almost every machine we find that some sort of wheel is used. Gears, for instance, are nothing more than wheels with teeth in them. Pulleys, with tre- mendous leverage, are likewise basically wheels. There- fore without the wheel, which is the basic unit, few of to- day's machines could have been invented. But it is these machines that form the basis of modern life. Thus the influence of the wheel on life to-day is tremendous. Hardly anything has been left untouched. Not only is the wheel still the basic unit of land transportation, but engines using some form of wheel within, also power sea and air travel to-day. Our dwelling places to-day are constructed and erected by machinery. They even incor- porate a form of wheel known as the door-handle. Clothes are produced in factories employing massive machines which consist of wheels. The production of food is affect- ed also, for to-day a great deal of agricultural machinery is used to grow the food, and then some sort of wheel is used to process it, as for instance, in the mills. Just as it has led to improvements in providing the necessities of life, the wheel has helped the advance of culture. What has done more for education, and religion, than the advent of printing? Yet printing presses are no more then large TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD .11 drums. Not one phase of life remains uninfluenced by the wheel. Even in the leisurely sport of fishing, reels are used. To-day what does not incorporate a wheel, is usually produced by a machine using them. Modern life depends on machinery, and machinery depends on the wheel. There- fore the greatest invention, though one of the simplest, is the wheel. -R. L. Watts, Form VIA. AN OPEN LETTER TO A MEMBER 0F PARLIAMENT Dear Sir: Deep interest in our immigration policy has led me to write you this letter. Canada lately has been making grown up nation noises. This is a fine and splendid policy but it presup- poses that Canada is an adult nation and Canada has not yet reached maturity. Huge tracts of land and tremen- dous resources do not make a great powerg it is inhabited land and developed resources which help form a world power. Our leaders have apparently not realized this basic fact. They occasionally come forth with some innocuous statement on immigration and shift over another commit- tee to review the subject. They are afraid that immigra- tion will offend the French-Canadians or the farmers or the unions or any other block which their fevered imagina- tions can conjure up. The sight of an underpopulated land mass between the two greatest nations on earth does not disturb them but the thought of the French vote leaves them sleepless for nights. They are fearful of having a few foreigners pollute our shores but they do not mind our best brains fleeing to the States. One of the reasons given for having no immigration is that we have no houses for immigrantsg but one of the 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD reasons given for the lack of housing is the shortage of labour. And so the idiotic circle of cause and effect con- tinues its useless, undisturbed path. Whenever the question of immigration arises, the government mutters that the time is not opportune, ap- parently in the hope that when this mystical undefined opportune time arrives they will not be there to deal with it. What is the situation at present, though? Mil- lions of intelligent Europeans, uprooted by war and still living under semi-starvation conditions, are more than willing to start life afresh in a new, peaceful land. These people are not the usual undesirable types Who, being failures in their own lands, think that they will be success- ful in a new country. They are first class citizen ma- terial. What does Canada do with this golden opportunity before her? She sits twiddling her collective thumbs, yawning over immigration and snarling about trivial tax concessions. I hope that you will give this matter your earnest attention. Yours truly, D. W. Fulford, Form VA. T wa 5 u 'L '11 9 a li in V0 my 311 if ' +2 A 1. m gm 0 2 M -7 O ,, '1 W1 X.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 OFF THE R EC O-RQ THE MUMMY'S MARCH OR THE LATE BRIGADE FROM ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW Allowing that the prefect-on-doors is the most alert bystander, fBecause Mr. Scott has been known before this and on slighter pretexts to have had people up for slander,J We shall amble up to the dining-hall a bit early this morning with the former, and by looking through his ear at the little ticker tape inside, CI know there is one there because I am more or less intimate with such as Campbell i and Hydel, We shall see his impression Of the world's most heart-rending procession: There are three general classifications into which the participants of the Mummy's March fall: Those who got to bed late last night, those who woke up early this morning, and those who haVen't woken up at all. If one was to believe the story told by those in authority, The first of these classifications contains by far the majority. 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD But the little ticker-tape says definitely that those showing signs of hard wear are relatively few, and they all seem to come from bottom flat, At that. Now, the Masters hold that the second group is so small as to be a triviality, But I know, and you know, and the little ticker-tape agrees that for one reason or another, Cmostly for one reasonl, this group represents a near totality. It has been found by scientific observation That this group has one predominant inclination: Dr. Brewer States that it generally appears from the classroom block, bearing study books, just before the twoer .

The little ticker-tape misses a tick or two, slows down and falls into a dogged plodding of clacksg The words become meaningless, the letters fuzzy as one watches the Mummies come up the steps, bear to the right and roll through the door like an endless procession of burlap sacks. The bell peals wickedly and the little ticker-tape gives a start, CIt has only been hypnotized by the contagious dull- ness of the march, not touched with pity, because it has no heartl, And begins ticking madly, as though to make up for lost time, and closes those awful gates, And continues ticking jubilantly because now it will be able to give some lates. Once more the doors open and the shattered remnants of a few human souls pass through in single file. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD -15 And move up the aisle.

TOUGH LUCK I eased my head against the cushioned rest, letting my eyes run over the simple dash-board of my new jet racing car. Oil pressure, fuel mixture, everything check- ed perfectly. I then signalled the starter, I was ready. Licking my lips nervously I relaxed and waited for the start of the race. The one minute flag was up. The seconds ticked by. The cars were off in a roar equalled only by that of the crowd. I realized, suddenly, that my life depended on a small amount of rubber and metal weighing less than half a ton. The speed thrilled me. The car was about maximum speed as the first lap whipped by. Three cars, mine among them, rounded the first turn. Above the deafening roar I heard a screech. A piston had misfired. One of my opponents crashed to block the speedway and the chances of the remaining cars. The last turn loomed up, and sweat broke out on by brow as I tried to manoeuvre into position on the inside run. The other driver had the same idea. He cut across my path. An earsplitting crash followed. I lost my senses and slip- ped into an eerie oblivion. A voice spoke from a great distance: Too bad, Mr. Dextrall, you didn't quite qualify. Hot down here, isn't it . -A. Croll, Form IVB. 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ,Q vga :Ie -l-- :- SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. At Port Hope, February 6: Lost 7-5 In their fifth game of the year, a return game with U.T.S. on our home ice, the first team again came out on the short end of the score. At the start of the first period our first line were able to keep the puck in the U.T.S. end and at 2.15 Wells scored on a pass from Taylor i to give us a 1-0 lead. U.T.S. came back fighting hard to try to even up the score, and until the seven minute mark when Howard of U.T.S. got a penalty, they kept, up tied up in our own zone. With eleven minutes of the period gone we took a 2-0 lead when a Payne from Campbell and Lawson combination clicked. At 13.40, while we were a man short, Fuller from Vernon gave U.T.S. their first goal. Fifty seconds later McClel- land scored from Sinclair to tie the score up at two all. The play settled down for the rest of the period with neither side having an advantage and the score remained unchanged. For the first six minutes of the second period, U.T.S. swamped our defense and it was only through the efforts of Fennell in goal for us that they did not score.

Starting the third period, U.T.S. took an early lead when Avery from Armstrong fired the puck past Fennell at 2.30. T.C.S. then took the initiative and did everything but score for the next four minutes. Finally their efforts were rewarded when Wood scored unassisted at 6.53. At the eight minute mark while we were one man short, Avery on a pass from Dall fired a very hard shot at Fen- nell, who stopped it beautifully, but he was unable to clear the rebound while lying sprawled on the ice, and Arm- strong flicked it over him to give U.T.S. a 5-4 lead. At 17.30, Sinclair scored again for U.T.S., assisted by Bark. At 18.01 Sinclair, taking the puck from Lang this time, scored his third goal to give U.T.S. a 7-4 lead. At 19.05 Newcomb scored from Lawson to give us our fifth goal. The game then ended to give U.T.S. a 7-5 win.

SCHOOL vs. LAKEFIELD At Lakefield, February 8: Tied 4-4 In an exhibition game at Lakefield the School was held to a tie by a powerful Grove team that came from behind four times to tie the score. Play in the early part of the first period was fast and furious, both teams striving for some advantage. Finally, after six minutes of play, Tay- 48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD lor passed to Wells, who was in the clear, and was able to beat Wessell. For the remainder of the period play see- sawed from one end to the other but clever playing by both goalies prevented further scoring. In the second period the Grove drove off several T.C.S. rushes before driving the puck to the Trinity end Where Reeve beat Goodbody in the School nets. A strong at- tack by the School was partially stopped at the Grove de- fence, but Fullerton took a long shot from the blue line, which put Trinity in the lead again. For several minutes the play was quite slow, then Sinclair scored on a shot from close in to tie up the score once more. T.C.S. now fought with renewed vigour and shortly before the end of the period McDonough scored after Wells had lured the goalie to one side. It was at this point that Gibaut, the Grove captain, was hit by a flying puck and was forced to leave the ice. The period ended with Trinity leading 3r2. In the opening minutes of the third period Reeve scored for Lakefield to tie the score once more, but thirty seconds later Wells scored on a pass from McDonough. Both teams tried unsuccessfully to score for several minutes and it was not until the closing minutes that Sin- chair scored again to make the teams even. An overtime period of five minutes opened with the School trying desperately to score and had it no been for the splendid playing of Wessel would have succeeded several times. Through nearly all of this extra period T.C.S. kept the puck in the Grove zone and attacked at all times, hardly ever being called upon to defend their own zone. Wells and McDonough were undoubtedly the best Tri- nity attackers on the ice While Fullerton played a splendid defensive game. For Lakefield Reeve and Sinclair with two goals each played Well While Gibson drove off several dangerous Trinity rushes.

SCHOOL vs. PICKER-ING At Newmarket, February 12: Won 9-3 The School played their return game with Pickering and emerged the victors from this rather rough game by a score of 9-3. Both teams seemed very evenly matched in the first period and the spectators saw some fast hockey. Payne opened the scoring when he gave the School their first goal in the early seconds of play, assisted by Campbell. This was followed by another T.C.S. goal, this time scored by Campbell unassisted. After a short interval, Pickering re- taliated with two quick goals, scored by Addison, and Robertson, and the first period score was left 2-2. The second period was scoreless, but saw both teams going all out, and the School began to show a slight edge over the Pickering squad. In the third period, the T.C.S. first team really broke loose. McDonough opened the period, scoring a goal on a pass from Wells. This was fol- lowed by another fired by Campbell assisted by Hyde. Mc- Donough then scored his second goal, Wells again getting the assist. Ensinck then scored a goal unassisted, and this was followed by a goal which Payne scored unassisted. Wells then fired in the School's eighth goal, from Mc- Donough. At this point Pickering came back momentarily when Addison scored his second goal, Maguire getting the assist. The final score of the game came a few minutes before full time when McDonough scored a quick goal assisted by Lawson. Thus the School left the ice on the long end of a 9-3 score-having made up for their previous defeat at the hands of the Pickering squad. 5U TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Pickering's standout was their captain, Addison, every man on the School team turned in a first class performance but special mention should be made of Hyde who played an outstanding game despite a serious kidney injury.

At Oshawa, February 14: Won 7-3 The School Won their second game in a row in the league by defeating S.A.C. 7-3 in a fast, and exciting con- test. . In the first period the play was kept mainly in the S.A.C. end with no score till half way through the period when Payne of T.C.S. tallied on a pass from Ensinck. The School continued the pressure as Wells scored on a pass from Newcomb and Wood on a pass from Payne. In the dying moments of the period McDonough scored, assisted by Wells and Wood, making the score 4-0 at the end of the first period. In the second period S.A.C. came back with two goals while the School were unable to counter. The Saints dominated the play for the main part of the period and Boothe scored on a pass from Chipman. Shortly after this Chipman scored for S.A.C. on a major penalty shot, as one of the T.C.S. players held the puck in -the crease. The third period saw more action on the part of the School as T.C.S. outscored S.A.C. 3-1 in this period. Chip- man of S.A.C. was given an interference penalty and the School scored as Fullerton shot the puck into the Saints' net after a solo rush. Very soon after Wells made a long rush and passed the puck to McDonough who slid the puck into the net. S.A.C. then tallied as Chipman scored on a pass from Nold. Before the end of the game Fullerton TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 scored again on a pass from Payne making the final score 7-3.

In the first period play was brilliant for the early minutes as both teams strove for the first counter. After eight minutes of play Bruce found the top corner on a long shot to give Trinity the lead. Less than twenty seconds later Fullerton stick- handled his way through the Saints' team to give the School a two goal lead. For a short time play slowed up and then S.A.C. started to roll. Errington was able to beat Fennell on a pass from Nold and two minutes later Chipman scored to tie up the game. Trinity now attacked superbly, and with a perfect combination play, McDonough scored to give T.C.S. a 3-2 lead at the end of the period. Play in the second period was slightly slower but it was still a hard-checking affair. On another well-executed play McDonough scored again from Wood and Taylor to increase the Trinity lead. S.A.C. fought back savagely but were unable to withstand the terrific Trinity rushes which resulted in a goal by Wells from Fullerton. Play now became a little ragged and it was not until Errington scored that T.C.S. got going again. With less than five minutes of the period remaining Fullerton scored another unassisted goal followed soon after by another by Wells on passes from Taylor and McDonough. This was again 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD an excellent pass combination which seemed to have the College defence completely baffled. For the remainder of the period the Trinity players rained shots at the Saints' net but brilliant play by Shirley, the S.A.C. goalie, pre- vented further scoring during the period to leave T.C.S. with a 7-3 lead. In the last period Trinity again poured shots on the S.A.C. net but Shirley seemed invincible until Lawson scored from Campbell. This was followed by a fine shot from Taylor which found the corner to beat the S.A.C. goalie. S.A.C. now put on the pressure and succeeded in cracking the Trinity defence sufficiently to enable Chipman to score twice in less than a minute. T.C.S. repelled all further attacks and three minutes later Payne scored from Lawson to end the scoring. For the final ten minutes of play Trinity made successive attacks at the S.A.C. goal but good defensive play robbed them of further goals and ended the game with the School victors by a five goal margin. For Saint Andrews, Chipman and Errington played splen- didly accounting for all the S.A.C. goals between them. For Trinity Fullerton played brilliant hockey throughout, scor- ing two go-als while the line of Wells, McDonough and Tay- lor combined well to account for five more of the School's counters. T.C.S.-Fennell igoall, Fullerton, Wood, Bruce, Wells, Mc- Donough, Taylor, Payne, Lawson, Campbell, Newcomb, Enslnck. S.A.C.-Shirley lgoall, Nold, McGregor, Chipman, Errington, Boothe, Scholfield, Marshall, Howson, Laing. SCHOOL vs. LAKEFIELD At Oshawa, February 21: Won 6-4 In a fast, close game played at Oshawa Arena, a superior T.C.S. squad defeated Lakefield 6-4 in a return game. The scoring in the first period was opened when Lake- field shot in two quick goals, the first by Reeve from Ket- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 chum at the thirteen minute mark, and the second by Easson from Reeve a minute and a quarter later. The lone Trinity counter was scored just a minute and three quarters from the end of the period by Payne on a pass from Lawson. In the second period T.C.S. netted three quick goals, the first a beautiful shot by Taylor from Wells and Mc- Donough at 8.15, the second by Fullerton on a pass from Lawson at 11.32, and the third by Wells from McDonough and Taylor at 14.33 before Reeve scored unassisted for the Grove. Both goalies starred in this period. Starting the third period on the short end of a four three score, Lakefield put on the pressure resulting in Ket- chum's unassisted goal on a break-away at the 9.17 mark which tied the game up again until Trinity's rushing de- fenceman, Don Fullerton, scored again on a pass from Wells to put the School in the lead once more. This lead was lengthened when the Payne from Lawson duo scored again at 18.38 to finish the scoring. For T.C.S., Fullerton, Payne and Lawson stood out while Reeve and Ketchum starred for the Grove. T.C.S.-Fennell, Fullerton, Wood, Taylor, Wells, McDonough, Bruce, Payne, Lawson, Newcomb, Ensinck, Goodbody. Lakefield-Wessel, Easson, Gibault, Reeve, Ketchum, Gibson, Sinclair, Sharo, Russell, Milnar, Jones, Huddart. a SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Maple Leaf Gardens, February 26: Lost 5-2 In their first game of the season against Upper Canada, the first team was beaten 5-2. The game featured very close checking and many break-aways on the part of the fast U.C.C. team. Taking advantage of the general disorganization of the T.C.S. squad in the opening minutes of the game, Upper Canada gained a 3-0 lead Within the first eight minutes of play. Their first goal came at the 4.20 mark when 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Cork on a pass from Ball fired the puck past Fennell from just inside the blue line. Shortly after this, with only six minutes and thirty-six seconds of play gone, Hadden on a pass from Gossage and Ball that left him completely in the clear, netted U.C.C.'s second goal. At the 7.50 mark Murphy intercepted a T.C.S. pass and Hewitt, taking the puck from him, put U.C.C. three goals ahead. At 12.30 Taylor, Wells and McDonough, showing the first signs of an attack on the part of Trinity, set up a beautiful pass play that should have been a goal, but Taylor, sweeping in from his right wing, was unable to beat Orr in the Upper Canada nets. At 15.55 the first team, still fighting hard to pull down the U.C.C. lead, were finally rewarded when Campbell scored on a shot from the blue line. Payne and Lawson were given assists on the play. There was no further scoring in the period but Upper Canada's greater speed gave them the edge in play. With U.C.C. starting the second period short-handed, Don Fullerton scored Trinity's second goal on a beautiful rush with only twenty-two seconds of play gone by. The second period of play was much more even, and at times Trinity threatened to tie the score. There were no goals scored on either side, however, until with only fifteen seconds left in the period Upper Canada took a 4-2 lead with Kent scoring, assisted by Murphy and Hewitt. In the third period U.C.C. took a 5-2 lead on a goal scored by Hewitt from Murphy and Bazos at 6.02. The T.C.S. squad fought hard in the last minutes of the game, but their playing became disorganized. Fennell in our nets was very good, having to stop many Upper Canada break-aways as Well as many other shots on goal. Fullerton also played well for us. The Upper Canada squad played very well as a unit, and no one was really outstanding. U.C.C.-Orr, Cork, Riddel, Bazos, Frame, Murphy, Hewitt, Kent, Hadden, Gossage, Crerar, Ball. T.C.S.-Fennell, Fullerton, Wood, Taylor, McDonough, Wells, Bruce, Lawson, Payne, Campbell, Newcomb, Ensinck, Goodbody. D CD C 3 Q.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 SCHOOL vs. UPPER CANADA COLLEGE At Port Hope, March 1: Lost 9-8 In their final Junior B League game T.C.S. lost to a powerful Upper Canada team by a score of 9-3. Up until the last period the play was extremely even but then U.C.C. let loose with a sensational display. The first period started with Upper Canada holding the puck in the School end but after a few minutes of play T.C.S. fought into their opponent's end and with Upper Canada a man short on a holding penalty, McDonough tal- lied on a pass from Taylor to give Trinity the lead. This was short lived, however, for seconds later Hewitt beat Fennell to tie up the game. For the remainder of the period play was fast and furious, both teams striving for the advantage: however, they were unable to score and the period ended 1-1. Early in the second period Wells put Trinity ahead on a shot from close in and shortly afterwards Wood scored to give T.C.S. a two goal lead. Once more U.C.C. put on the pressure enabling Murphy to score on a deflected shot. A few minutes later Gossage scored to tie up the game once more. For the remainder of the period neither team was able to score and the period ended 3-3. The third period opened with T.C.S. on the offensive but this was soon turned to the defensive as Hadden and White tallied within two minutes of each other. Upper Canada con- tinued this overwhelming attack and in three minutes scored again to make the score 6-3. With less than four minutes remaining Gossage beat Fennell from close in to widen the U.C.C. lead. With U.C.C. a man short Trinity relieved the pressure for a short period but with one minute left Gossage scored for the College. With ten seconds remaining Hadden scored on a pass from Gossage to end the game with a 9-3 total. For Upper Canada Gossage, Riddell and Cork stood out while the line of Wells, Taylor and McDonough played well for Trinity. 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T.C.S.-Fennell, Wood, Bruce, Fullerton, Wells, McDonough. Taylor, Payne, Campbell, Lawson, Newcomb, Ensinck, Goodbody. U.C.C.-Orr, Riddell, Cork, Hewitt, Kent, Murphy, Bazos. Had- den, Gossage, Ball, Cicarar, White, Frame. SCHOOL vs. PORT HOPE JUNIORS At Port Hope, March 10: Lost 7-5 In a rough game played on soft ice Trinity was de- feated by a fast Port Hope team. The School suffered the loss of Wells who injured his ankle in the first minute of play. Port Hope opened the first period with a fierce attack which seemed to baffle the School and after only two minutes of play Goody blasted a pass from Hagen into the Trinity nets. T.C.S. returned the attack but were unable to beat Jex, the Port Hope goalie. Port Hope took ad- vantage of a breakaway when Hunt scored to give them a two goal lead. Port Hope definitely had the edge for several minutes enabling Hagen and Hunt to tally to give the Port Hopers a 4-0 lead as the period ended. Shortly after the start of the second period Campbell beat Stottart in the Port Hope nets to open the scoring for Trinity. T.C.S. then commenced a series of ganging attacks but the Port Hope defence was equal to them and it wasn't until the period was half over that Taylor tallied on an unassisted play. For several minutes play see-sawed from one end to the other until Goody got in the clear and on a pass from McMillan shoved the puck past Fennell to give Port Hope a 5-2 lead. Less than a minute afterwards a perfect com- bination play of Ensinck to Taylor to McDonough ended in a well-deserved goal for the School. For the remaining minute of the period T.C.S. kept the puck in the Port Hope end but good goal-keeping prevented further scoring. The last period was but two minutes old when Bulger scored for Port Hope on a face-off near the T.C.S. goal. Fifty seconds later Bulger again scored on a break-away TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 to give Port Hope a 7-3 lead but less than a minute later Payne banged one past Jex on a pass from Lawson to keep T.C.S. in the running. A great chance came for T.C.S. with Port Hope two men short but although the Port Hope goalie was subjected to an unmerciful pounding he held the School scoreless until his players returned to the ice. For the remainder of the period T.C.S. had the better of the play and with less than four minutes remaining Campbell scored on a long shot. The period ended with T.C.S. keep- ing the puck in the Port Hope end and vainly striving to score. The game ended with Port Hope victors by a 7-5 score. The School played one of their best games of the year and did remarkably well considering the poor ice. For T.C.S. Campbell, Taylor, Ensinck and Bruce played well, while Jex, Goody and Bulger were outstanding for Port Hope.

The scoring was begun by Bethune at the 2.23 mark of the first period when Dave McDonough scored on passes from Ensinck and Wells. Brent evened it up at 9.20 when Thompson iii scored with an assist by Fullerton, and took a one goal lead at 18.43 when Black i scored from Wood. Bethune evened the score at 4.20 in the second period 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ' with a Taylor from Ensinck goal. However, goals by Little from Wood i at 6.45, Black i from Thompson iii at 14.10, and Little from Fullerton at 18.40, gave Brent the 5-2 lead which they had at the start of the third period. The outlook was sad for Bethune fans until the 9.50 mark of the third period when Wells at last found the net on a pass from Campbell i, who came back at 14.19 to make the score 5-4 with an unassisted goal. The game was tied up at 14.54 by Wells from Ensinck. This deadlock lasted for four suspense-filled minutes until Taylor got an un- assisted goal at 18.25 to give Bethune the game.

Juvenile Hockey SCHOOL vs. NEWCASTLE At Port Hope, February 5: Won 6-3 In their second league game of the current season T.C.S. defeated Newcastle 6-3. Holding a definite superi- ority throughout the game the School nevertheless was handicapped by the loss of McKinnon i who broke his ankle on a play which enabled MacPherson to score. Play throughout the first period was slow, both de- fences clearing well and the forwards being unable to ob- tain any great advantage. However, near the end of the period Black broke through the Newcastle defence enabling Brooks to score. In the second period T.C.S. attacked with vigour and Black scored after two minutes of play. This was immediately followed by a goal by MacPherson. At this point Newcastle took to the offensive and Richard- son scored on a screen shot that beat Goodbody. T.C.S. retaliated quickly with goals by Little and Deverall as the period ended with the School having a four goal lead. 3 Z FU A - 3 f 'T -1 ua 3 Q cn 5 ft 3 F 'T' '1 C I N 2 Q 4? !

SCHOOL vs. PORT HOPE At Port Hope, February 12: Lost 5-1 In a league game marred by twenty-one penalties T.C.S. came out on the short end of a 5-1 score. The School played fast hockey all the way but lacked the polish of their opponents in front of the net. Port Hope scored in the first minute of play on a shot byiHessen from a re- bound that the School defence failed to clear. From here on, penalties were numerous and one team always seemed to be short-handed for the rest of the period. Port Hope combined well and had not the T.C.S. forwards back-check- ed well the score might have been considerably higher. It was not until the closing minutes of the period that Black tied up the game with a shot from close in. In the second period Port Hope held a definite advantage and in the first five minutes of play notched three goals to give them a good lead over the School. The third period was con- siderably slower and passing by both teams was inclined to be ragged. The School forwards led by Austin tried on numerous occasions to crack through the Port Hope de- fence but were unable to do so. In the closing minutes Hessen scored again to end the game with a 5-1 score. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD For Port Hope Hessen and Ashley with two goals apiece were the outstanding players whilst Austin and Goodbody played well for Trinity.

SCHOOL vs. BOWMANVILLE At Orono, February 15: Lost 6-2 In a return league game with Bowmanville, played on exceedingly poor ice, Trinity was defeated by a fighting Bowmanville team. , Play in the first period was confined to shooting the puck from one end to the other over the uneven ice surface and it was only in the final minutes of the period that Hooper scored for Bowmanville. Early in the second period Cowle countered for another Bowmanville tally but the School retaliated quickly on shots by Austin and Black to tie the score. Early in the third period T.C.S. had severalscoring opportunities with Bowmanville a man short but failed to score. With Black serving a penalty Bowmanville had the advantage and Sturrock scored to give them the lead. Shortly afterwards Hooper tallied again for Bowmanville, and with Brodeur given a penalty, scored another two goals to give Bowmanville a decisive lead. For the remainder of the period play see-sawed from one end to the other but neither team was able to score. For Bowmanville Hooper with four goals was outstanding while Austin and Good- body played Well for Trinity.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 SCHOOL vs. PORT HOPE At Port Hope, February 18: Lost 7-6 ln a fast, hard-checking game on good ice, the School was edged out in overtime by a powerful Port Hope team. Play from the first whistle was furious and early in the period Port Hope took the lead on a goal by Jeffreys. T.C.S. stepped up their attack and a short time later Black scored unassisted to tie up the game. At this point Port Hope was awarded a penalty shot but Goodbody cleared with a brilliant save. Shortly afterwards Trinity took the lead when Bascom banged in a rebound from MacPherson but Hessen soon beat Goodbody to tie up the score once more. In the second period both teams strove for the advantage making play fast and both goalies were called upon to make some remarkable saves but the period remained scoreless. Going into the last period determined to break the tie, the School was rewarded by two quick goals by Austin and Brooks but Port Hope fought back and Churchley scored on a long shot. Then Brooks scored again to give T.C.S. another two goal lead but again Churchley scored to bring the Port Hope team nearer to a victory. With six minutes left Thompson made it 6-4 for Trinity but Jeffreys notched two quick goals to tie up the game shortly before the final whistle. In the overtime period T.C.S. slowed up, giving Port Hope the advantage for a short time during which Dotzko scored the winning goal. The School drove back and attacked superbly but were unable to score before time was up. For Port Hope Jeffreys and Hessen were outstanding. Brooks and Black were the best Trinity forwards while Goodbody performed magnificently in goal.

The game was a hard-checking affair and was fairly fast throughout although the ice was soft. Lakefield opened the scoring early in the first period when Burns beat dePencier on a close shot. Trinity then returned to beat March in the Grove nets a short time later. Lakefield seemed to have a slight edge for the re- mainder of the period and succeeded in scoring twice more to give them a 3-1 lead at the end of the period. The second period opened with Easson banging in a rebound past Stratford and moments later Milver scored to give the Grove a four goal lead. Trinity attacked vigorously and succeeded in hammering the puck near the Grove goal but the defence seemed impregnable and the School was unable to score. The third period was much rougher, the referee handing out penalties to three Grove and one T.C.S. player. Trinity were unable to make the most of their advantages and although they kept the puck in the Lake- field end most of the period, and seemed the better team on the ice, the splendid work of March in the Lakefield nets prevented them from scoring. For the Grove, Bourroughs, Easson and March were outstanding while Bascom and Deverall played well for the losers. T.C.S.-dePencier, Stratford, Brodeur, Deverall, Hall, Black i, Brooks i, Thompson iii, Austin, Bascom, Drummond, Little, Mac- Pherson. Lakefield-March, Reese, Drew, Wilks, McNa.ughton, Bour- roughs, McCullough, Easson, Diesfecker, Burns, Milver, Wither, Leggett. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDDLESIDE HOCKEY This year Middleside was again coached by Mr. Key and although all games were lost the team never gave up trying and should provide Bigside with some useful men next year. In their first game at Lakefield, Middleside was de- feated by a score of 11-2. Lakefield seemed to have a more experienced team and although the School attacked continually they were outclassed by their opponents. In a game with Pickering College the team did much better and it was not until the dying moments of the game that Pickering were able to eke out a narrow 6-5 victory. Huycke 123, Harvie 123, and Morgan were the goal get- ters for Trinity and played a good offensive game. The return game with Lakefield found the School much improved but although they outplayed Lakefield in the second period they came out on the short end of an 11-4 score. Merry, Emery and dePencier played well for the School while Pangman, Harvie, Boulden and Merry were the T.C.S. marksmen. In the House Game, which was combined with the Juveniles, Brent seemed to have a slight edge but were held to a 2-2 tie by Bethune in a game played on very poor ice. Brent led 1-0 at the end of the first period but a quick goal by MacPherson tied it up. In the last period Thompson scored for Brent but with only three minutes remaining MacPherson tied it up. As an overtime period was out of the question due to the poor ice it was decided to have another game if weather permitted but to date no further arrangements have been made. For Brent Thompson and Black played well while Austin and MacPherson were out- standing for Bethune. Middleside-Paterson iii, Vallance, Emery, Morgan, Merry, Ketchum, Chitty, Huycke, McIntyre, Harvie, Pangman, Boulden, Alley, Byers, McKenzie, Woods i. - 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDGET HOCKEY This year the Midgets played good offensive hockey but were elminated from the playoffs by a strong Port Hope team. In their league games they finished in second place and won their exhibition game with Upper Canada. Against Orono some fine goal tending by Luke and spectacular offensive play by Grout resulted in a 5-3 vic- tory after trailing by a 2-0 score at the end of the first period. In the Bowmanville game T.C.S. had an over- whelming edge over their opponents and after an early lead continued to pile in the goals for a final 6-1 score. In their first playoff game with Port Hope, the School came from behind a three goal deficit to tie up the score in the last period only to lose on a goal scored in the early moments of an overtime period. In the second playoff game the School was severely trounced, being on the short end of a 7-1 score. In a hard-fought exhibition game at T.C.S., the Mid- gets emerged victorious over the U.C.C. midgets on a goal scored at 19:58 of the last period on a spectacular play by Moffitt. Throughout the season the team has played well with Luke doing well in goal, Moffitt being spectacular throughout on the attack and McGill playing a splendid defensive game. The high scorers for the Midgets were Moffitt, Rogers ii and Kingman, each with five goals. Mr. Hass has done a good job as coach and we con- gratulate him on turning out such a splendid team. Midgets-Luke, Wilson, McGill, Wright, Moffitt, Kilbourn, Rogers ii, Kingman, Potter, Bermingham, Bronfman, Soowen, Woods ii, Thompson v. 1.lii1.1. i-11 LITTLESIDE HOCKEY This year Littleside had extremely bad luck, and were unable to obtain many fixtures. However, two games were arranged with the Junior School first team and a third with S.A.C. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 In the first J.S. game, Littleside eked out a four-three victory over a powerful J.S. squad. Harris, with two goals, contributed largely to the Littleside victory by his fast offensive play. In the return game Littleside sailed to a 6-0 victory on goals by Van Straubenzee 623, McKin- non, Harris, Croll and Bate. The Littleside squad had a definite edge throughout, and although the J.S. defence played a fighting game, Littleside proved too much for them. Even the addition of three Midget players was not enough to save Littleside from an 11-1 trouncing by the S.A.C. Midgets. Kingman scored the lone School goal in the second period to avoid complete disaster at the hands of the S.A.C. powerhouse. In the Littleside House game, Bethune was edged out by a 3-2 margin. Rogers and Kingman played well for the losers, each scoring a goal, while Thompson v, McGill and Moffitt scored for Brent. Mr. Dale coached Littleside this year, and has done an extremely good job. being a great help to the whole team with his knowledge. Littleside-McKinnon ii, Panet, Woods ii, Manning, Barrow, Harris, Peters, Van Straubenzee, Palmer, Durnford, Bate, Croll, Grout, Heard, Gilmour, Gilley.

' Cobourg gained the lead early in the game and they never lost it. In the first half the play was very even but T.C.S. made a few bad blunders to give Cobourg the ad- vantage. From then on Cobourg steadly increased the lead except for a last minute spurt by T.C.S. The small floor and low roof hampered the Trinity boys considerably and increased the value of Cobourg's zone defence. T.C.S. lost the game mainly because of a few small errors and their poor shooting in the first quarter. The best for Cobourg were Quigley, Kellough and Hol- land. The steady playing of Gaunt plus Rogers' scoring stood out for T.C.S. T.C.S.-Brewer, Carson, Wismer, Conyers, Rogers, French, Sweny, Watts, Gaunt. Cobourg-Quigley, Holland, Allender, McGuire, Kellough, Ball, Crego. SCHOOL vs. LINDSAY At Lindsay, February 12: Won 35-17 The School scored a decisive victory over Lindsay by defeating them 35-17 in a rough but fairly slow game. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 The first half started well for the School as Brewer scored most of the School's early points. T.C.S. com- pletely dominated the play and fought hard to hold Lind- say to two points in the first quarter. Rogers was well up on the scoring list as the first half ended with Trinity leading 28-8. In the second half T.C.S. relaxed, and for the most part the seconds played. However, the School still main- tained their lead, and had control of the play. Again the play was rough and both teams had numerous foul shots. Brewer was the star of the T.C.S. team, getting ten points, while Preston was the best for the losers. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers i, Brewer, French, Wismer, Conyers ii, Carson, Sweny, Watts. Lindsay-Puffer, Preston, Collins, Rowden, Walker, Laidley, Eggleton, Logan, Philip. Slitch, Newton. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At Port Hope, February 14: Won 50-21 The First Team defeated St. And.rew's College 50-21 in a Little Big Four basketball game. T.C.S. took an early lead which was never threatened. Playing a fast breaking game Trinity outclassed their opponents, showing more finish around the basket. After the opening minute the game was never in doubt. and it was simply a case of how many points Trinity would pile up. S.A.C. fought hard but had no chance against a T.C.S. team which could do no wrong. Rogers was the high scorer for the victors, netting twenty-four points, while Hersch and Malcolmson played well for the visitors. S.A.C.-Hersch, Malcolmson, Simpson, Little, Triest, Taylor, Henderson, Edmonds. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers, Brewer, French, Wismer, Conyers, Car- son, Sweny, GS TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SCHOOL vs. D.K.E. At Port Hope, February 15: Won 55-43 The First basketball team defeated the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity of the University of Toronto 55-43. Minus two of the starting line-up, the School team played well to defeat the fraternity team in a high scoring game. The School took the lead in the first half 21-14 mainly due to the shooting of Brewer and Wismer who scored eighteen points between them. The second half was very close with not much to choose between the two teams although the School outscored the D.K.E.'s 34-29. Brewer was outstanding for Trinity scoring thirty points While Wismer was the next high scorer with sixteen points. McGregor and Lawson were the top men for the D.K.E.'s with sixteen and eleven points respectively. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Brewer, Conyers, Wismer, Carson, Dame, Sweny, Watts. D.K.E.-Hawkins, McGregor, Hurst, Guthrie, Lawson, Robarts, Walker. SCHOOL vs. PETERBOROUGH COLLEGIATE At T.C.S., February 19: Won 47-32 In a crucial league game against Peterborough, league leaders until this game, T.C.S. , featuring a fast-breaking squad, battled all the way to a convincing 47-32 victory. The School started in high gear, with Wismer scoring a basket on the first play, and kept on driving all the way. Play in the first half was fast moving but close, and it was Rogers' accurate pivot shooting that gave the School a 27- 19 lead at half time, as he scored sixteen points. It was only the School's sustained drive that kept them in the lead, as Peterborough looked as if they might break away at any moment. The T.C.S. defence held them all the way. The second half was much the same as both teams displayed a superb example of fast ball handling. The School, however, further increased their lead in this half so that Peterborough never came within eight points of l I l 1 l i I 1 i F l l i I 'Ai fl rl A 1 I I TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 them again. Keeping up their attack all the way, T.C.S. built up a fifteen point lead by full time as they outscored their opponents 20-13 in this half. The game was fast and closely fought all the way, and though the Peterborough team played an excellent game. T.C.S. featuring Roger's accurate shooting and a speedy. fighting squad. had the edge. Rogers amassed twenty- six ploints and vsas ably supported by the whole team play- ing cne of the best games of the year. Peterborough was game to the end, making the play very close. Richardson and Mcllveen stood out for the visitors. The School's vic- tory pulled Peterborough from the top into a second place tie with T.C.S., leaving Cobourg leading the league. It was the School's fifth successive victory. Peterborough-Richardson, Mcllveen, Green, Leck, Connel, Gra- ham, Thompson, McKee, D. Richardson. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers, Brewer, French, Wismer, Sweny, Watts, Conyers. Carson. SCHOOL vs. COBOURG At Cobomg, March 1: Lost 29-26 In an exhibition game against Cobourg, the seniors finished on the short of a 29-26 score. The game played on the small gymnasium in Cobourg was by no means spectacular. T.C.S. seemed to be at a loss on the small floor until the final quarter when they pressed Cobourg hard but were unable to find the basket. Cobourg opened the scoring in the first quarter but T.C.S. kept pace with them and the score at the period's end was 9-8 for Cobourg. In the second stanza Cobourg doubled their total while Trinity only collected two more baskets to leave the score at half time, Cobourg eighteen, Trinity twelve. In the third quarter Cobourg completely dominated the play and were able to make T.C.S. hurry their shots so much that they were only able to score one point. Co- 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD bourg clicked nicely several times to boost the score to 25-13. The last quarter was all Trinity's and after much hard work and excellent playing T.C.S. had Cobourg worried. However, Cobourg held and the final score was Cobourg 29, T.C.S. 26. Quigley for Cobourg was undoubtedly the best man on the floor, while Trinity as a unit worked hard and im- proved steadily as the game progressed. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers, Conyers, Brewer, French, Wismer, Sweny, Watts, Carson. Oobourg--Quigley, Holland, Allender, McGuire, Kellough, Ball, Crego. .L.illl11. SCHOOL vs. PORT HOPE RASCALS At P-ort Hope, March 5: Won 70-31 In a very fast and close-checking exhibition basketball game, the first team outplayed and outscored the Port Hope Rascals. Never throughout the course of the game was Trinity in danger and the end of the first half found the School leading 32-6 on points amassed by eight players on some very nice shooting. The beginning of the second half found the play see- sawing back and forth and thus it was for the whole quar- ter, when the School outscored the Rascals 18-14. The final quarter saw the School pressing hard throughout, and the team piled up a total of twenty-two points due greatly to the excellent play of Brewer and Rogers. The grand checking of French and Gaunt, and the all- round play of Brewer was the key-note of the School at- tack, while for the Rascals the play of Bonguard and Creighton stood out. T.C.S.--Gaunt, Rogers i, Brewer, French, Wismer, Conyers ll, Watts, Sweny, Carson. Port Hope Rascals-Creighton, Bonguard, Austin, Fulford, Cot- ter, Branwood. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71 SCHOOL vs. PETERBOROUGH At Peterborough, March 10: Lost 59-26 Peterborough eliminated the School from the senior C.O.S.S.A. League by a 59-26 win. The winners played an effective man for man defence which had T.C.S. baffled on the large floor. P.C.V.I. made use of the fast break many times to catch the School defence napping. The officials dominated the game from the start call- ing very close penalties which might have been avoided. Before T.C.S. could get started their opponents had scored ten points, a lead which they constantly added to. In the second half Peterborough made a runaway of the game outclassing their opponents in all departments. T.C.S. tried hard but the accurate shooting of Richard- son and Thompson made victory certain for Peterborough. McIlveen also played a strong defensive game for the win- ners, while for the School, Brewer and Gaunt pla.yed well. T.C.S.--Brewer. Carson, Wismer, Rogers, Conyers, Gaunt, Sweny, French, Watts. P.C.V.I.--Richardson, McIlveen, Green, Graham, Langhorne Lee, Dibben, Thompson, Matthews. l SCHOOL vs. OSHAWA At Port Hope, March 12: Won 62-51 In a game studded with many fouls, the First Team defeated Oshawa in their final contest of the season in the T.C.S. gymnasium. The first quarter opened slowly, with the play see-saw- ing back and forth, being slowed up by lack of fighting spirit on both teams. The second quarter was much the same until near the end when the play opened up con- siderably and both teams displayed some excellent check- ing and rushes. Although the School was leading at half time 27-21, the game was still very much in doubt. The second half opened with a little better show of basketball than did the previous half, and near the end of 72 TRINITY-COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the third quarter the School's attack caught fire and the team scored seventeen points. In the last quarter the play was fast, and saw Oshawa trying strongly to overcome the lead that the School had amassed against them in the first three quarters, but this was all to no avail, for although they outscored the School 22-18, the game was Trinity's to the tune of 62-51. Captain Gaunt played an outstanding game for the School, both offensively and defensively, accounting for nineteen points. French played a very fine checking game, while Wismer and Rogers aided greatly in the vic- tory by sniping thirteen and seventeen points respectively. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers, Wismer, French, Brewer, Sweny, 'Con- yers, Watts, Carson. Oshawa-Hanna, Crawford, Mayer, Foster, Dell, Chant, Mozewski. HOUSE GAME: Won by Bethune, 55-27 Bethune House soundly trounced Brent House in the Bigside Basketball House game by a score of 55-27. Brent proved no match for the Bethune team ably coached by John Dame. The first half was only slightly one-sided and at the end Bethune had only a ten point lead. The second half was all Bethune as they out-scored Brent 28-11 to make the final score 55-27. Rogers was outstanding for Bethune scoring twenty- nine points ably supported by French who played well de- fensively. The Brent House team was slightly disorganized but fought hard. Bethime-Carson, Conyers, Greenwood, Rogers, French, Vernon, Taylor. Brent-Wismer, Howard, Gaunt, Fullerton,Wood, Sweny, Watts, Dignam. l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 J unior Basketball The Junior basketball team, coached by Mr. Rhodes. raised the standard of basketball a great deal over pre- vious years, and if the team had had more spirit and will to Win, they would have fared much better.

In spite of the clogging snow con- ditions, excellent times were made down a very bulky sla- lom course laid out by the ski pro at Northumberland. Baker, the T.C.S. ski captain, was the first competitor to run the course and he made an excellent thirty-nine seconds. Next came Middleton of S.A.C. also captain of his team who schussed the flags for 38.1, best one of the day. Powell, vice-captain of T.C.S., weaved through the flags for a 38.8, best time for the School, and second in the meet. Inners of S.A.C. then chalked up a 47.3 while Sifton christied down for 39. The final score: S.A.C.-Middleton 38.1 sec., Innes 47.3, Lewes 51.3, Todd 57.6, Bass 59.5, Strorlup 64.9 sec. Total, 318.7 seconds. T.C.S.-Powell 38.8 sec., Baker 39, Sifton 39, dePen- cier 40.5, Welsford 43.1, Prentice 54.6 sec. Total 255.0 seconds. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 85 The meet endgd with the School victorious holding 63.7 seconds advantage. Altogether the meet was a great success and we hope that it may be followed by many more like it. The Bethany Inter-Scholastic Ski Meet Saturday, February 15 The Peterborough Ski Club invited the School to par- ticipate in an -inter-school giant slalom to be held at Bethany on Saturday, February 8. To be asked to ski at Bethany was in itself an honour, for Bethany had just re- opened after a war-time shut-down and no T.C.S. skiers had been there for some years. With perfect weather and snow conditions, the team arrived at Bethany about 12.30 and the races got under way at 2 p.m. The three man senior team flashed down a long and hard run, through gates, flushes and bird-cages to finish with Fennell first, French second and Baker fourth. The three man junior team raced a modified senior slalom with Rogers i first, Powell fourth and Sifton fifth. Racing individually from T.C.S. were dePencier third and Welsford seventh. Cobourg, The Grove, Peter- borough Collegiate, St. Peter's Collegiate and T.C.S. entered teams. Thus T.C.S. won the meet both individually and as a team. Fennell and Rogers returned victorious with in- dividual trophies and the team with the new Dit Clapper inter-school trophy which will be challenged annually. ,i.11 .-gif s :., 2 .L - .. 1 , Aid f.

As far as we can find out, he is the first Old J.S. boy to win this honour in his New Boy year in the Senior School. Panet has worked very hard at his gym. and has earned this success. The sincere thanks of all members of the First Hockey team a.re due Mr. and Mrs. Symons for the wonderful way they entertained us after the Ridley hockey game. One rather unique story comes out of the hockey sea- son. U.C.C. Prep. were here to play the J.S. in the Town rink. Taxis had come to take both teams to the arena. The first two cars had pulled off from in front of the School leaving a third car which happened to contain six U.C.C. boys and nobody from the J.S. The first two cars arrived, without incident, at the rink some five minutes later. Some fifteen minutes later the U.C.C. coach came to our changing room, in a state of mild agitation, to look for six of his team. Having disclaimed any charges of kidnapping, we started searching for them with him. The mystery was not solved until the missing taxi drove up to the rink some few minutes later with a rather shamefaced driver at the wheel. It appeared that he had been under the impression that he was driving a J .S. team to Lakefield! The car had apparently covered some miles on the Peterborough highway before one of the occupants remarked in a diffident voice that the Port Hope rink was a long way from the School! This produced a rapid stop and a hasty return to Port Hope. Lakefield would have been surprised! Forms IA and Prep. enjoyed a sleigh ride party or- ganized by Mrs. Ketchum and they also especially enjoyed a grand feed afterwards. Very many thanks to Mrs Ket- chum from these forms. 1 88 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MY IMAGINATION You know-sometimes when skies are grey My thoughts they wander far away To lands where I have often been, But other folks have never seen. For one, the Land of Ponkapiv That's where the Bulbajujos live They sit beneath the shady trees And steal the honey from the bees. Another place is Jenkypoo But that's a nasty place for you The language there is very queer And has been so for many a year. But when I came back from my daze, I'd passed right through a kind of haze, Voices seemed to say you see That home's the very best for me. -H.D.B.C., Form IIB. JUST A BEGINNER! Have you ever looked back on the days when you were just starting something new and you were not much good at it? How people used to laugh your efforts to scorn! Life has a habit of dishing out such things on a full- size plate, but in so doing Life also expects you to learn to finish that plate. Most of us can think of cotmtless times when we our- selves have laughed a beginner to scorn. But as you grow up, you learn to encourage a person who is starting some- thing for the first time. Sometimes you feel that you simply cannot keep from laughing at a boy who skates on his ankles and stumbles TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 89 about. Try your very best, for his sake, not to laugh. For, though it is hard to admit, you were once a beginner yourself! -D.A.W., Form IA.

The stork, the swan, and ostrich Are all so very tall. -T.O'B.C., Form IB. .lit-...1...1 . A GOOD CHOICE There was once a rich, old man called Mr. Appelby who owned a big house near the sea. He also owned a beauti- ful carriage and a pair of lovely white horses. Mr. Appelby had had trouble with his coachman re- cently and had been obliged to fire him. He put up a notice in the nearby village which ran as follows Coach- man wanted. Apply to Mr. Appelby . The next day five young men appeared as applicants for the job. In his interview with them, Mr. Appelby ask- ed them all the same question How close can you drive to the edge of a cliff ? 90 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The first young man said that he could drive to within one inch of the cliff. The next one said that he could drive to within half an inch. I can drive to within a quarter of an inch said the third. The fourth man said that he could drive right up to the edge of the cliff and not go over. Mr. Appelby sent them all on their way. When the fifth man came in, he was also asked the question. His reply was I have never driven near to the edge of a cliff and never intend to. Mr. Appelby hired him on the spot saying I just wanted to get a good driver who would not take risks. That is why I asked you that question. -J.O.R., Form IIB. A DREAM One day as I was riding a bicycle on a hike through England I met an old tramp who asked me to take his bag for him to the next town and leave it at the Inn. I did not think that there could be any harm in that, so I took the bag and rode off as fast as I could to get the job done. I was just coming in sight of the Inn when a police- man stopped me and asked what I had in the bag. I told him that I did not know as it had been given to me by some- one to take to the Inn. The policeman immediately wanted to see what was in the bag. When he had opened it and looked inside, he grabbed me by the collar and carted me off to jail. At the jail I was informed that I had stolen a large amount of precious jewels from London and would probably get a long sentence. I was still loudly proclaiming my innocence when .... I woke up!

Darkened once, Is now a sunlit pool. -R.J.A., Form IA. WITCHCRAFT fThis is an extract from an essay on English Social Life in the 17th century written this term by H. S. B. Symons, Form IIAIJ In the seventeenth century superstition had reached one of its peaks in England and the dread of witches broke out into frenzied persecutions. At the beginning of the Stuart era no one was safe from accusation. James the First was a firm believer in witchcraft and even went so far as to write a book on Demonology . Mathew Hop- kins, Witchfinder Royal, and a notorious witch hunter, con- victed hundreds of people before he was convicted himself. The trials and tortures were both brutal and inhuman. There were also various tests to determine guilt or inno- cence. One of them was by floating . In this test the accused was tied in a sack and drawn through a pond. If you drowned you were innocent, if you floated you were guilty and therefore died anyway! 92 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In the trial by pricking there were certain parts of a witch's body which when pricked neither bled nor hurt. With the trial by weighing the accused had more chance. Your weight was compared with that of the parish Bible: if you weighed more you were innocent. To make a Witch confess, various tortures were used. A cord was sometimes twisted around their temples: their nails torn out by the thumbscrew or their legs were crushed by the iron boot. It is no wonder that the supposed witch would confess to anything the accuser wished! Some of the supposed witches were just followers of old religions, certain others boasted silly spells or jinxes. It was believed that they could transform themselves into anything they wished, become invisible, cause hail and thunder, and cast every imaginable spell. There were also certain people who claimed to be white witches, that is to say, their powers were devoted to good ends. They used their spells to cure disease, to find lost property, and other helpful things. Yet even they were often penalized and tortured. The fascinating and brutal story of witchcraft was born in man's shadowy past and even yet is not extinct. -I-I.S.B.S., Form IIAI. ll HOCKEY Captain of Hockey .......................................,........

Both forward lines were well- balanced and showed good scoring and back-checking ability.

Our goalie also served us Well.

SCHOOL vs. RIDLEY , At Varsity Arena, March 5: Lost '7-5 Both teams were very evenly matched although the School was without the services of Southam, their number one defence player. Play was fast throughout the game and both sides had many opportunities around the goal which they failed to push home. The score was tied at 2-2 at the end of the first period and then in the second period again at 3-3. Ridley scored three quick goals to go into a 6-3 lead. The School, however, made a good comeback and the game ended 7-5 in Ridley's favour.

Rigby opened up very fast scoring four goals to one in the first period. Play was very even in the second with Orchard attacking strongly and succeeding in scoring a goal.

Despite the fact that he had missed six weeks of work, he has kept up remarkably well in his course. Having been at British universities on army courses during the war, Norman is able to make a comparison in the attitude of the students and he finds that the standard of work is very high at Ajax and that the undergraduates apply themselves with much more seriousness than they do at Gxford and Cam- bridge.

FORREST Old Boys all over the world will be sorry to hear of the death on February 8 in Toronto of Dr. Forrest. He had been in poor health for some time but he always retained his quiet good humour. Dr. Forrest was appointed School doctor in 1910 and he retired in 1936. Throughout those years the health and welfare of the boys were always uppermost in his mind. He took a deep interest in the School and the life of the in- dividual lads and no request was too much trouble for him. The lives of a number of boys were undoubtedly saved by his skill for Dr. Forrest was renowned for his ability, especially in diamosis. His home, so hospitably presided over by Mrs. Forrest. was a gathering place for T.C.S. people, Masters and boys, and the devastating T.C.S. appetites were for once satisfied at his bountiful board. The doctor may have been out all night on a country call but he never gave a sign of it and put the boys at ease by his cheerful conversation. The School and the Town have recently lost three doc- tors who stood for the finest tradition in the practice of medicine: Dr. Diamond, Dr. Benson, and now Dr. Forrest. The service they rendered to their fellow men in need can never be forgotten by those who knew it. The funeral service for Dr. Forrest was conducted by the Rev. C. H. Boulden, a Master at the School for fourteen years. To Mrs. Forrest and her daughters the School sends its deepest sympathy. 'I 'I I r I If I 'L I I I I I I I 'I I , . I I R .

EDITORIAL The Trinity term every year is always a continual rush with a great many things to be done and a very short time in which to do them. Seldom more than eight weeks long, there is as much accomplished in it as there is in any of the other terms. There is a full cricket season for three teams, a track team to develop for outside competition as well as for the School sports day, all the drill and gym. practice necessary for Inspection day and on top of this are final exams at the end of the term with Upper School 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD exams coming usually in the middle of the term. Two issues of the Record are written and collected during the term. This is the same number as is published in each of the other two terms which are from four to six weeks longer. On top of all this is very often a guard of honor for the visiting speaker on Speech Day. Two months seems an incredibly short time in which to accomplish all this and indeed it is. It has, admittedly, been done each year but in so doing a great number of things are sacrificed. Usually the first half of the term is spent mainly in preparation for Inspection Day and as a result all athletics are rather haphazard during this time. Immediately after Inspection and, in some years, before it, come the Upper School exams which leaves little time for boys to do very much extra studying. About ten days after the Upper School exams end the rest of the School exams start and consequently the time for athletics which is left after Inspection day is almost continually interfered with by exams. Thus either the exams affect the boy's athletics or else the sports will do harm to his marks. There is very little that can be done about these cir- cumstances as long as this very short final term remains. A great deal of credit is due to boys and masters alike for getting as much done as they do. There is, however, an atmosphere of tension among the boys during the whole term as there is so much for them to get done. This tension could be relieved a great deal if the term started two weeks sooner than it usually does. If there could be some definite date for the beginning of the Trinity term which was around the first of April, rather than such a variable time as is now the case due to Easter, there would be a great deal more time to accomplish the same amount of work and hence the work could be done that much better. This admittedly would knock about two weeks off the end of the Lent term. However, these last two weeks are often a fairly slack time as it is the end of the hockey and bas- ketball seasons and the time could perhaps be more pro- fitably spent at the first of the final term. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 The big drawback to this plan is, obviously, the weather, which is none too certain during April. However, during the rain Cand snowll of the early spring, much can still be accomplished. The gym. show could be prepared for, training for track could also be carried out in the gym. and even a certain amount of cricket practice could be done indoors. Extra studying could also be done on the rainy days. Thus all, or at least a great deal, of the neces- sary indoor work would be done and boys would have more time to spend outside at games when the weather did clear up. I don't mean to give the impression that the Trinity term as it now stands is a horrible nightmare in any way. I'm merely suggesting that if it could be arranged to add two weeks or so to the beginning of it, the strain during the term would be considerably eased. -J.B.F. LETTER T0 THE EDITOR Mr. Editor: This is to show my appreciation of the new-boy sys- tem through which I have learned a great deal in my first year at the School. I write this not looking ahead a few weeks when I will have completed my year as a new-boy, but rather back on what was accomplished throughout this course. I call it a course because that is what it isg a training course de- signed to build character in every new boy, to enable him to live in harmony with his fellows. There are many duties and humiliations facing a new boy when he comes to this School, that he does not like, and consequently makes a problem out of them. The only way to solve this problem is complete co-operation with the system. A lot depends on the lirst impression, the first attitude, because it isn't always easy to change early in 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the year once the wrong attitude has been taken. There seem to be several different outlooks which a new boy usually takes, first, he is taken aback by the whole system and naturally resents it: resenting it, he tries to iight it. In doing so he arouses the resentment not only of the senior boys who are trying to discipline him, but also of other new boys who see that he is trying to avoid the humbling to which they are all subjected. Thus he finds himself like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. This is invariably checked during the year for this reason: at a day school a boy who doesn't know how to get along with others is usually avoided, but he can always turn to his home for sympathy and companionship, whereas at a boarding school with a new boy system, other boys can- not avoid himg they are forced to live with him, and he with them. They will not sympathize with him as his family might, but will show him his faults and force them out of him. He in his turn will find that he can get along with his fellows only by ridding himself of his faults. In this way better character is developed in the boy by the system. Secondly, he may take it all as a joke and not realize the seriousness of the whole thing. Then he gets into trouble and finds out that it is to be taken more seriously, and that he can be happy and have fun if he stays on the right side of the law and performs his duties as a new boy. Thirdly, there is always the type that doesn't care and just carries on in an untidy way. In turn this character will find that he gets little out of the life. Sooner or later he wakes up to the facts and finds that in developing his interest in the School he enjoys the life more and more. The new boy system on the whole has helped me in three ways: first, it has taught me how to be neat, in appearance and manner, secondly, it has taught me how to take orders, but, above all it has taught me how to get along with others. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 I have heard many arguments against this system and they have seemed quite convincing, but when I look back on it and what it has done for me, I really can't see the School as successfully organized as it is now without it. I write this for the benefit of future new boys at T.C.S., to be taken for what it is worth. CSignedJ: A New Boy of '46-'47. Editor's Note: The boy who wrote this letter was one who, at the first, found the system impossible to endure. He has now written the above entirely of his own free will and has asked that it be printed. .ll LETTER T0 THE EDITOR Mr. Editor: It has seemed to me that a few words said on the old School tradition of Singing Off those who are not re- turning might not be amiss. If an Old Boy of ten years ago were to return, I do not believe he would recognize this custom as it now stands. In his time it constituted a sincere and heartfelt So-long given by the School as a body to their friends whom they were sorry to see go, but of whom they were proud. In our time we seem to have lost all this feeling. The Sing- ing-Off consists of the School breaking up into groups, each of which chases and finally captures successive vic- tims who undergo a severe though friendly beating about the head, during which several people are generally acci- dentally bashed in the face. One Old Boy who has written many of our School songs has captured in verse the sad but happy feeling that prevails: 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Singing You Off There's a sunlit evening that comes in June When your Trinity schooldays are doneg It's the end of term, and all too soon You must say your goodbyes and be gone. And as you stand in your room that night Comes a trampling of feet on the stair, And they drag you out in the fading light To the boys who are waiting there. Chorus: For they're singing you off from the old life here, They're singing you off from the School, And they grip your hand and shout and cheer Till you're ready to cry like a fool. You'l1 hear those voices ringing still As the years divide you from the Hill, And you'1l see that crowd till your journey ends, Your first and your best and your truest friends, All singing you off, singing you off, singing you off From the School, from the old red School. You face the West Where the sky's still red While the singing and shouting arise, But you find you have to bend your head For the hurry of tears to your eyes. You never thought you would feel it so, You never believed you would care, But your lips now show that it's hard to go From the boys who are singing there. But you must not think that the end has come, You must summon a smile if you can, For the boyhood days you are turning from Will be part of your life as a man. And friends are friends though they're far apart, And vision is stronger than sightg TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 When your courage fails you will take fresh heart At the thought of the boys tonight. -J.D.K. C07-'10J I genuinely hope, Mr. Editor, that this grand old tradi tion will be revived. Sincerely, A WELL WISHER. -.l 2 ia f xiii:-,zu gigs ,V +L? '-zz. G ai Ti.

It was con- ducted by the late Archbishop Derwyn Owen, Archbishop of Toronto, and Primate of all Canada. In his address the Archbishop spoke on the subject of power as brought out in the sacred act of Confirmation. He pointed out that all the assets of our being are de- dicated to God in this service, and that when they are thus combined they produce the most powerful force there is. For this reason, Confirmation is one of the most important steps we take during the course of our whole lives. Once again the choir performed in a faultless manner. After the Processional Hymn, they sang the Introit, I Lift My Heart to Thee . This is a very slow, beautiful work. which was very appropriate for the opening of such an impressive service. The choir also rendered the anthem, Jesu, Meek and Lowly by Sir Edward Elgar. It is the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 first time that this has been sung in the Chapel, but its presentation was excellently done and left nothing to be desired. Mr. Cohu and the choir in general deserve our warmest congratulations and sincerest thanks. On Palm Sunday a Choral Communion was held in order that the newly confirmed might celebrate their first communion, and again the work of the choir was excellent. We should like to thank Rev. C. H. Boulden of St. Mark's Church, and Rev. J. M. Crisall of St. John's Church for assisting during the Confirmation and first Communion services. .i........- - i--l- Canon C. A. Moulton The Rev. Canon C. A. Moulton, Rector of St. Simon's Church, Toronto, spoke at Evensong on Sunday. April 20. He told us about the Epistle of St. Paul the Apostle to the Philippians in which a great destinction had been made between Christians, who are the citizens of heaven, and the rest of the world, who are the citizens of various countries. He pointed out how difficult it may sometimes become for us to remain good citizens both of Heaven and of Canada, and he laid down some general principles for us to follow in our daily lives. In closing, Canon Moulton urged us to become Pil- grims of Christ, trying to spread the citizenship of heaven among the citizens of the world, while keeping to the standards set by our Lord. ,.p A Gall to Action The Record takes pleasure in printing the following sermon delivered at St. Matthew's Church, Timmins, by Kenneth Langdon C44-'45J. I have taken my text from the 4th chapter of the gospel according to St. Matthew beginning at the 13th verse. 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee saw two brethren, Simon, called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, 'Follow me and I will make you fishers of men! And they straightway left their nets and followed him. I choose this text not as a topic for my sermon nor for any moral value that it may contain:-I offer it to you as a contrast. The contemporaries of Christ who knew him and who witnessed his works had no trouble in believing. To those who heard him speak, who saw him heal, who experienced the radiance and the warmth of his presence, there could be no doubt of his identity. I admit, the way was difficult if they were to follow for there were many who opposed him and persecuted his followers. Nevertheless, his ad- herents had a rock-bottom faith-directly inspired by Jesus the Divine. No matter how difficult it was to follow in a material sense Cfor it often meant all manner and kind of persecutionl there was the inward spiritual fire that turn- ed the simple Galilean fishermen into spirited leaders and self-sacrificing followers. Therefore, because of their direct knowledge of God they could leave their only means of livelihood, without a minute's hesitation, when beckoned by Christ. But today, I fear, it is a different story. Despite the unfailing and devoted perseverance of the church, the memory of Christ's life, the glorious example he set and the supreme sacrifice that he made for us, is beginning to fade from our memories. Perhaps the reason for this is because we are beginning to look upon the New Testament as a work on ancient history rather than as a moral and spiritual way of life. Probably much lack of interest is due to the fact that we are diverted by the material things of a material way of life and because a secular doctrine is taught in our schools and forced into the minds of the pub- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 lic by radio, newspapers and theatre. Whatever may be the reason for the apathy towards the church, the fact re- mains that it does exist. Now, in this moral and spiritual crisis, we have more need of an organized church as a progressive power of good than we ever had before. Today, when the power of the atomic bomb hangs over the future existence of man- kind like an owl hovering over a mouse, we have need of every sinew of the church the fight for peace and security. Let us not deceive ourselves with the thought that the Church, through some mystical and obscure power, will be able to overcome the tremendous difficulties that face it now. As Jesus called upon Peter and Andrew that night so does the church call upon you this night. It does not ask you to drop your life's vocation and go forth to spread the word of Christ among the ignorant, but it does call up- on you to bind yourselves together and present a stout front to that which threatens the Church. I can see by your expression that the preceding sen- tence was distasteful to you because it was vague and high- sounding. I'l1 try to clerify my meaning but first I wish to make two things clear. ' If you believe that before you work for the church you must have complete and unshakeable faith in all that the church teaches, then may I say that your services shall never be at the disposal of the Church. Although there is a certain amount of inherent faith in all men, do not wait for a full and complete belief before you do service. If the leaders and exponents of the Christian religion had waited for full revelation, Christianity would be classified as an extinct religion in today's encyclopedia. Secondly, if you so believe that by attending church once a month and depositing five dollars in the collection plate you are fulfilling your obligation and discharging your duties to the church, then you are deceiving yourself and destroying the church. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Your duty to the church embraces more than a weekly attendance of services. If you want to aid this parish and help to strengthen and unite our church, join the church clubs and accept those tasks which are assigned to you no matter how heavy or how humble. The strength of this Church and all churches depends upon the unity of the congregations. A church is like a business in this respect: you only get out of it what you put into it. 'As ye sow so shall ye reap'. The reason I have for asking you to join the church clubs is this. The spread of Christianity was not due to the Bible. The first works of the New Testament were not written until some seventy-odd years after the Resurrec- tion of our Lord. Christianity, its faith, its doctrines and its ideals spread almost entirely by word of mouth and by discussion. Such discussion was then the most potent factor in the spread and acceptance of our belief. Today it is still the most powerful agent that the church pos- sesses. But discussion can only take place if people will congregate and contribute their ideas. This church pro- vides a place and has organized groups that will form a nucleus. But these groups are pitifully smallg member- ship must grow if these organizations are to surviveg and they must survive if the church is to continue to be any- thing other than an impotent force in a world of material chaos and blind destruction. I am not saying that church organizations are erected only for the purpose of discussing religion. Indeed, most of the work done by these organizations is along charitable lines and fulfilling certain functions that are expected of the church and required of it. But these clubs bring all members of the congregation together and thus tend to simulate early Christian fellowship and give us a fuller and more Christian conception of our fellow man. And now, as a youth, I think that it is only appro- priate that I address a few remarks to the younger people of this congregation. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 It is us that the church looks forward to for support not only in the future, but at this time. The church can use all the fire that youth possesses and all the potential that lies unspoiled within us. It is by our active support that the church looks forward to the time when it may establish a kingdom on earth more similar to that which exists in Heaven. The same potential in us that can make more deadly the arts of war and destruction, can be em- ployed to erect a decent Christian society where man may pursue a life uninterrupted by terror and death. We, the young people in this church tonight, will either vastly im- prove the position of the church in society or tear apart the last vestige of Christianity. In time of national danger it is easy to arouse patriotism because the enemy is tangible and cannot be ignored. But the enemy of the church is not nearly so tangible .... it's a passive force rather than an active one. It is an enemy that is easy to ignore, hard to recognize in its true colours. But it is a force far more potent that any man-made enemy. It promises to be more destructive of peace than Hitler at the height of his conquest. It is the apathy of people in general-and you in particular. We must take stock of ourselves and then turn our endeavours to strengthening the church. Let's quit vainly wishing that we were members of the United Nations Council. Instead, let us remember that we are all the children of God. Let us congregate as a family and straightway follow Christ as did Peter and Andrew. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ARCHBISHOP DERWYN TREVOR OWEN 1876 - 1947 The sudden death of Archbishop Owen on April 9 brought sorrow to countless people everywhere. In his long ministry of forty-seven years Derwyn Owen had be- come universally beloved and admired, and we at this School felt that he was very truly our Father in God. On March 29 he had conducted the Service of Confirmation and had spent the whole day at the School arriving in the early morning and leaving late at night. Many times he had visited us and always he spoke of the pleasure it gave him to be with the boys. Archbishop Owen was born in England and came to Canada with his family in 1882. They settled on a farm near Brandon, Manitoba, later moving to Gore's Landing on Rice Lake north of Cobourg. Often the Archbishop recalled his first sight of T.C.S. when he was a lad riding on a hay wagon and how the boys playing on the green fields brought back memories of his early years in Eng- land. He attended schools in Gore's Landing, Cobourg and Toronto, going on to Trinity College from where he graduated in 1900. At a dinner the School gave in honour of the Primate and Mrs. Owen last November, the Archbishop spoke feel- ingly of his early days in the West and at Gore's Landing. After serving as Curate at St. John's, Toronto, All Hallows, London, England, and St. James', Toronto, he was appointed rector of Holy Trinity, Toronto. In 1914 he be- came rector of Christ's Church Cathedral, Hamilton, and Dean of Niagara, being elected Bishop of Niagara in 1925. In 1932 he was elected Bishop of Toronto and two years later he became Primate of the Church of England in Canada. The funeral service was held in St. James' Cathedral, Toronto, on April 12, and the Archbishop was buried in the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 graveyard of St. John's Church, York Mills. As a student, at Trinity, he had served this Church. He is survived by his wife who was Nona Jellett, two sons, Robert C19-'25J, and the Rev. Derwyn, two daughters and two brothers. A third son, David, was killed in Nor- mandy in 1944. The School sends its heartfelt sympathy to Mrs. Owen and the members of the family in their loss. On Sunday, April 27, a Memorial Service for Arch- bishop Owen was held in the School Chapel, the Head- master spoke as follows: To-day we at this School are paying tribute to the life of a most distinguished Canadian, the leader of the Church of England in this country, and the head of this diocese- Archbishop Derwyn Trevor Owen, who died suddenly on April 9. . There is a story told sof a great tree of the woods. Straight and strong, many years it grew, well rooted and grounded, oversliadowing all the other trees round about, spreading out its branches over them like covering wings. It grew older and some of the spring went out of its limbs. Then one day it fell, suddenly, to the ground. The forest seemed hushed after the shock, all the surrounding trees were motionless, there was no rippling of their leaves. That is the way we feel when one of our parents dies, that is the way we felt when we heard of the Archbishop's death. Only a few days before, he had been here in this Chapel, confirming, strengthening, boys. Defend O Lord this thy child with thy heavenly grace, that he may con- tinue thine forever, and daily increase in thy holy spirit more and more, until he come unto thy everlasting king- dom. Those were the words he used, and that was the theme of his own life, and the purpose of his ministry for forty-seven years, defending people against evil by strengthening them with the knowledge of the Holy Spirit 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD of God. A real Father in God he was to many thousands of Canadians. Do you remember the story he told in illustration of the power of the holy spirit? There were islands, he said, in the South Pacific, which were regularly swept by hurri- canes coming out of the west, they bent the palm trees right to the ground. One would expect the trees to lean permanently away from those frightful storms, like the great pine trees in our own north country. But that was not the caseg they leant in the opposite direction, for the prevailing winds, though much gentler, blew that way and were eventually stronger because they were more constant. The pressures of life bend us sometimes until we think we may break, but always the gentler, continual spirit of God is stronger and will prevail if we let it fill us, root, stem and branch. The Archbishop was the most spiritual of men. One felt that all through his long ministry there could never have been any wavering of his faith in the ultimate good- ness of men, because they were made in the likeness of God, and chiefly because he knew the living power of the Spirit of God. That faith glowed in his character and in his per- sonality, and no one who knew him or heard him could fail to feel it or be influenced by it. He was a saintly man and he walked with God. And he was a man of action. We think of him repre- senting Canada at the Lambeth Conference in London, and of his flight to England in a bomber during wartime in order to meet our soldiers, sailors, and airmen. On that occasion he preached in Westminster Abbey and had long conversations with Archbishop Temple, one of the most eminent religious leaders of all time. We think, too, of the great work he did towards unit- ing the divisions of the Church, of the wonderful success of the Anglican Advance Appeal, of his deeply moving broadcast on the day of our Victory in Europe. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD lf Yes, Archbishop Owen was indeed a man of action. No call on his time was too difficult or trivial for him, and he would always respond happily. In his post as head of the Church of England in Canada he had most exacting and arduous duties to perform but he never let them interfere with his visits to the remote settlements, and always it was the individual man and woman in whom he was interested. The Archbishop's own early life had taught him the supreme value of sacrifice and hardship and unrelenting work in the development of strong character and a sense of responsibility to one's neighbours, No man having put his hand to the plough and turning back is fit to enter the Kingdom of God. Ease and security had no attractions for him-he knew how they weakened the human fibre. On one occa- sion he asked in a sermon what security any of the leaders of history had had, what security had any of the great religious leaders, Moses, Paul, or any of the apostles? What security, material security, had Jesus? No, the Arch- bishop was a doer, he had to be about our Father's busi- ness. He knew that all life should be an adventure, the Christian adventure. But it was the Archbishop's kindliness, patience, and unswerving devotion to his calling which won him the hearts of thousands. Simple, unaffected, sincere, like all truly great men, he was endowed with the spirit of wis- dom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and ghostly strength, the spirit of knowledge and true godlinessi' There is a difference between cleverness and wisdom, and he was wise, he knew the value of happiness and a merry heart, but he was not one to make happiness the goal of life. Too often that means, in the minds of men, material happiness which is as fleeting as a morning mist. I think he would have said that the aim of life, real pro- gress, was to discover our God-given talents of mind and heart and spirit and to make the most of them, working 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD with others and always lending a helping hand to those less fortunate. Then some day, toward the end of our earthly life perhaps, we might be able to look back over our careers and feel truly contented that we had done our best, and that we had been worthy of the care given to us and the space we had occupied in this life. As trustees of an exceptional heritage we had justified our existence. That surely is a noble aim. Last November the Archbishop spoke in our Hall at a dinner we gave in his honour, and he said there were three lessons he had learned which came out of the changes and chances of this life. They Were: 1. There is a destiny which shapes our ends. 2. The things which seem to be against us turn out to be great helps upon the journey. 3. Here in this life there is no abiding city but the things that are not seen seem to be eternal. I think he would have agreed with a commentary on these impressions which suggested that character is destiny --and godliness makes great character, that sacrifice and hardship make us strong, and that our spiritual, mental and moral life is incomparably more important than our material life. if Il 1 i Q The death of a prominent and distinguished man like the Archbishop, the death of any close relation or friend, shocks us and saddens us. It is natural to feel that Way. I remember when I was young thinking that life could surely not go on without my father or my motherg the sun could not rise again. But when we grow older we realize that life does go on and that human life has gone on for possibly five hun- dred thousand years. A thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday , and man's span of seventy odd years is J. dec. 1-IEPBURN C89-'93J Speaker of the Ontario Legislature THE MEMORIAL TUCK 1 l 1 UTI-IE QUEENS HUSBAND Left fo Right:-P.

We should give deep and humble thanks for the privi- lege of knowing a man so great as Archbishop Owen, and we should be especially encouraged that the human race under God can produce such a man. There is here a lesson which many people never learn: our life on this earth is fleeting and uncertain. Should we not take pains therefore to realize that those who are with us to-day may not be with us to-morrow? And should we not do our utmost to make the hours of their lives and ours contented and worthwhile? Let us remember that at home when we are self-willed and difficult, the sands of time run constantly, this day can never be recalled or re- peated. We do not clearly know the nature of life beyond this world, but we do know the unearthly power of the spirit of man, and in our moments of higher contemplation we feel certain that such a spirit can never die as our bodies die. And the nobler the life here, the nobler and stronger is the spirit after the death of the body. It is helpful to remember, too, that men of all ages have held some such belief. Bishop Brent used to say that in this life we can see only to the horizon' but we know there is much beyond it. And so we see, at our stage of development, the death of the body, but we know there must be much beyond that state, the spiritual life, we call it. The earthly life of Archbishop Owen drew men every- where to a higher plane, he led them to a better way of life and they saw God in him. Onward and upward day by day, Straight is the path and narrow the way, But many before us the road have trod, And the top of the hill is the heart of God. 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Christian character of our beloved Archbishop is indelibly impressed on the minds of all who knew him. He has run a good race and kept the faith, and we feel he has now heard those cherished and vastly rewarding words: Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord. THE OPENING OF THE HUGH RUSSEL MEMORIAL TUCK THE HEADDIASTEIVS INTRODUCTION It is my privilege and pleasure, on behalf of all mem- bers of the School, to give a very warm and heartfelt wel- come to-day to Mr. and Mrs. Blair Russel. It is just twenty- one years since they sent their elder son, Dal, to us, and since that time they have been firm and fast friends of T.C.S. Dal and his younger brother Hugh were here, and six other Russel connections from Montreal, so that the Russel family is one of the great T.C.S. families and we are indeed proud of our association with them. Their visit to-day is in the nature of a pilgrimage, for there is one thought in their minds. In this past war Dal became one of the most distinguished Airmen in all the Allied Forces. He went through the Battle of Britain and at the end of the war, over six years later, he was the only pilot who had been in the Battle of Britain to be still fight- ing. Because of his gallantry and skill, he was awarded the D.S.O. and the D.F.C. and Bar. We are indeed proud to have him and his wife with us to-day. Hugh Russel, of whom we are all thinking, was at the School for six years, from 1933 until 1939. He entered the Jtmior School and stayed there for two years, then went up through the Senior School winning countless friends because of his constant good humour and ready smile. He was a faithful and valuable member of the Choir for many years, he took part in plays, he worked steadily at his studies and he played all the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 games. Hockey was his favourite game and we who saw him will never forget the way he used to evade his opponents by his clever stick-handling and fast skating. For three years he played on Bigside and was Captain of the team in his final year. He was always calm and in command of himself and he seemed to thoroughly enjoy the keeness of the game. On every team he was a valuable and steady influence. Hugh never said much, he just smiled and did his job effectively. He was a Prefect and fulfilled his duties capably and well. In 1940, shortly after leaving the School, he enlisted in the Air Force and went overseas in 1941. He took part in many operational flights, flying Hurricanes, and he was one of the intrepid band who opposed the German Pocket Battleships when they made their mad dash through the Dover Straits. He fought in the Dieppe raid and his Squa- dron did the greatest damage to the enemy. When he had completed his first tour of operations he was promoted to Flight Lieutenant and returned to Canada as an Instructor. Just four years ago he visited the School and spoke to the boys after lunch. Those who heard him will never forget the cool, capable and amusing way in which he told us the intimate details of his experiences, his audience was captivated and would not let him go. , I thought then, and still think, that of all the overseas men who have spoken to the boys, Hugh made the deepest impression, princi- pally because of his simplicity, humility, and humour. Hugh went overseas again in 1943 and he had almost completed his second tour of operations by D Day. He took his courageous part in the critical fighting of those historic days and wrote to us to say that the magnitude of the forces engaged was beyond descriptiong from the air he could see nothing but ships and other aircraft. In June he was reported missing, and later he was officially reported presumed to have been killed in action on June 16, 1944. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Those of us who knew Hugh Russel need no material memorial to remind us of him. His fine character and winning personality are indelibly impressed on our minds and he is part of our lives. Mr. and Mrs. Russel, in their thoughtfulness and generosity, have given in Hugh's memory a beautiful little building which will be prized by many generations of boys. Though these boys did not have the privilege of knowing Hugh, they will always link his name with this building and I am certain Hugh is happy in the knowledge that this gift in his memory is bringing them so much enjoyment. Hugh and his brothers-in-arms have written an im- perishable page in the story of this country and in the story of all freedom-loving peoples, by their calm gal- lantry and devotion they saved everyone of us from being enslaved in the fetters of an insufferable tyranny. Their deeds and lives will ever be an inspiration to us. We live in deeds, not years, in thoughts, not breaths, In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbsg he most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best. That was the way Hugh Russel lived, and that is the way he lives. We shall never forget him. MR. RUSSEL'S REMARKS First of all Mrs. Russel and I wish to thank you for so graciously honouring the memory of our son, by your attendance at this ceremony. We do fully realize that per- sonal convenience must have been put completely aside, especially by those who have come from considerable dis- tances. Really words fail me to properly express the grateful thanks we feel, and owe to you. We owe our thanks too, to those who gave our Tuck Shop building the sincere thought they did, in design and construction. We hope Masters and Boys will have years W I l I r l l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 of happy times there. We were indeed privileged and lucky to have been able to make the gift and we feel most happy that the School was pleased to accept it. For a boy's training to-day I cannot imagine a better set-up nor more perfect surroundings and atmosphere than what you boys have here at Trinity College School. One thought behind our gift to you of this Tuck Shop was that we wanted to favour something on the lighter side of school life. We have felt for a long time, but especially in these confused and strenuous times, that it is not generally recognized how sustained and gruelling life at boarding school is for many boys, nor the grit the life takes. We have felt too that we were indebted to the School, as we saw it, for the good and manly qualities of character our boys gained in the years they spent here. Most deeply, of course, we wished in this way to convey to his School our dear son Hugh's lasting acknowledgment and gratitude for the many benefits and kindnesses he received while here, and his lasting acknowledgment and thanks for those dear friendships, which he valued so highly and which went along with his school life. Now We hope that you boys will make this Tuck Shop another fine School institution, so that it will in its own way contribute, along with your other more seriously minded school undertakings, to encourage good friend- ships, good behaviour, and by that I mean a fine sports- manship, and a high ideal of how life should be lived, al- ways sincerely and always for the truth. The history of your School which your Memorial Cross depicts in the sternest manner, proves beyond all doubt that the hard and strict training and discipline boys received here stood them in good stead in their after school life, and it enabled them to face with such undaunted courage, bravery, devotion and sacrifice, those dire and dread events which this sorry old world unfortunately encountered. It is a silent and sad token of undying grief to so many families, and of such great and irreplaceable loss to this dear Canada of ours. 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD By way of inspiration, the following are the words appearing on the Hugh Russel Memorial Plaque: Always strive to carry your weight in the boat and have enough strength in reserve to help the other fellow. We do trust that these very simple words will be an inspiration to many of you. As the unveiling of the mem- orial plaque is to take place later in the Tuck Shop, I shall then ask Mrs. Russel if she will do so to declare the Tuck Shop officially open and all your own. The thought of this gift was entirely hers, and Trinity College School and the boys attending it have always been very close to her heart. APPRECIATION EXPRESSED BY MR.. STRATHY The Chairman of the Governing Body, Mr. G. B. Strathy, then accepted the new building on behalf of the School. He expressed in a few words the grateful feeling that the School held towards the Russel family for all they had done, pointing out that the School owes them a debt of gratitude for their two sons who had come here, and who had done so much for it and for their fellow students. The visitors, the Masters who had known Hugh, the Prefects and members of the School Council then walked over to the Tuck where a simple ceremony was held. After two short prayers by the Chaplain and the Lord's Prayer, the plaque was unveiled by Mrs. Russel who then declared --t-l'rerbu'ildi.ng officially open. L' Q-4-l 'f Q x .

He is making good progress towards recovery, however, and the School extends him sincere sympathy in his illness. V At the end of last term Mr. Rhodes gave up his posi- tion as assistant to Mr. Batt. Mr. Armstrong, who was previously a member of the staff, has now returned to the School after completing his year's studies at McGill Uni- versity and will assist Mr. Batt as well as carry on with his various coaching duties. Opening of the Memorial Tuck The new Memorial Tuck, a beautiful modern building across the playing fields from the School was officially opened on Saturday, May 3, by the donors, Mr. and Mrs. Blair Russel of Montreal. Given in memory of their gal- lant son, Hugh, who was killed while serving with the R.C. A.F. overseas, the new building will stand as a perpetual tribute to one of our most popular Old Boys. Many visitors from Toronto, London and Montreal came for the ceremony. It had been planned to hold the whole ceremony at the Tuck itself but because of the un- certainty of the weather, all but the actual unveiling of the c was held in the Hall. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 Among the visitors were: The Rev. and Mrs. C. H. Boulden, Mr. Peter Britton, Mr. C. F. W. Burns, Mr. Aubrey Burrows, Mr. and Mrs. Murray R. Chipman, Mr. and Mrs. George Garnett, Mr. and Mrs. Nicol Kingsmill, Mr. and Mrs. George, Kirkpatrick, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Labatt, Mr. and Mrs. John Labatt, Miss Mary Labatt, Col. and Mrs. J. W. Langmuir, Mr. J. W. C. Langmuir, Mr. A. S. Mathers, The Hon. R. C. Matthews, Mr. and Mrs. William Mood, Mr. Ted Parker, Mr. and Mrs. Blair Russel, Mr. and Mrs. Dal Russel, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Ryrie, Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Saunders, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Seagram, Mr. Tom Seagram, Jr., Mr. G. B. Strathy, Mr. J. G. K. Strathy. Movies in the Hall On Saturday night, March 22, a series of movie shorts were shown in the Hall. The Shining Hours , Flight Six , John Bull's Island , and Malta were shown. Per- haps the best was John Bull's Island , which showed us what England has been through, and how she will once again rise in a new World, backed by the determination of a g'reat people. All in all, this was one of the best shows given at the School in some time, and much credit is due to those in charge. ,i11. Presentation of Cups On Sunday, March 23, the School welcomed back a distinguished Old Boy, The Hon. Mr. Justice P. H. Gordon, a member of the bench of Alberta. He left the School in 1902 as a Prefect and winner of the grand challenge cup for athletics and since then has done much able work in the field of law. On the request of the Headmaster, he very kindly presented several cups. The first of these was the Andrew Duncan Trophy for the House which obtains the most points in the annual boxing and which was won for the second year in ow 9 v 4 1 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD by Brent House. Next were presented the Bradburn Cup for the best Boxer, won this year by Brooks i, and the Novice Cup for the best New-boy boxer, won by Sifton. Justice Gordon then presented the trophies for the most valuable players on Bigside basketball and hockey, which went to Gaunt and Wells respectively. We are very glad that, despite the difficulties of travel in snow-bound Alberta, Mr. Justice Gordon was still able to pay the School this visit. Visit of Robert Fennell, K.C. Mr. Robert Fennell, K.C., a leading Toronto counsel, visited the School on April 21, and very kindly gave a talk on the profession of law to all the boys who were in- terested. After being introduced by the Headmaster, who men- tioned his long and distinguished career in legal circles, and the great Work he has done with the Royal Ontario Museum, The Community Chest and other social organiza- tions, Mr. Fennell gave us a brief outline of the many qualities which he thought a young man must possess in order to become a successful lawyer. The foremost of these were a good academic background, a classical educa- tion and a large, usable vocabulary. He stressed that speech was the most important of these, and that personal appearance, integrity and industry are all fundamentals. Mr. Fennell then went on to outline the various fields of law which are open to the young man of today. He pointed out that it is a door to politics, that criminal law, civil litigation and corporation law are all fields in which there is much to be done. In closing, Mr. Fennell said that the profession of law is only for those who are not only willing to, but love to work at it, and that unless we are willing to give up other pleasures for it, We should choose some other career. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 The Church Parade On Sunday, May 4, the Cadet Corps paraded to St. .lohn's Church, Port Hope. The fall-in was sounded at 10.15, and the Squadron moved off shortly thereafter to arrive at the church by 11 o'clock. The Rev. J. M. Crisall conducted the service with the assistance of Mr. Bagley. The sermon dealt with the little things of life, and Rev. Crisall pointed out that it was the many little things which really count, rather than the few big things. After the service, the Cadet Corps formed up outside the church, and returned to School by Way of Walton and Ontario Streets. This parade was the first of the year, and the Whole Corps, especially the short-handed band. de- serves praise for its work. -l Visit to the Port Hope Rotary Club This year the Port Hope Rotary Club very kindly in- vited all boys from countries other than Canada and the U.S.A. to one of their weekly Friday night dinners. The boys went in two groups, the first on March 21, and the second on April 25, when Mr. Briden, head of the Nichol- son File Co., was the speaker. All the boys would like to thank very much the Ro- tarians of Port Hope for the most interesting and enjoy- able time they had, and we wish the Rotary Club the best of luck in the future. ll.l -T1 Visit of Mrs. Davidson Mrs. J. F. Davidson, the noted lecturer and historian, visited the School on Thursday, April 24, and gave us a very fascinating and instructive talk on the much discussed Truman Doctrine. 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mrs. Davidson was born in Latvia and has travelled very widely as well as spending two years in China. She can talk seven languages and she is, today, one of the lead- ing lecturers on current affairs on the North American Continent. Mrs. Davidson briefly outlined the doctrine, discuss- ing its motives, and its probable advantages and dangers, after which she kindly, and as later events proved, very valiantly offered to answer any questions. The response was overwhelming, and it was not until over an hour and a half later that the last of the many questions had been answered. We were very fortunate to have a chance to hear Mrs. Davidson, and we owe her a great debt of gratitude for taking time from her already overcrowded schedule to give us a much clearer picture of this vastly important decision. Hockey and Basketball Dinner The winter season's sports officially ended on Friday, May 2, when the annual Hockey and Basketball dinner was held in the Hall. It was attended by all members of the Bigside Hockey, Basketball, Squash, Gym., Swimming and Ski teams, the captains and vice-captains of all teams, and the coaches. Mr. Hodgetts who coached both the Basket- ball and Swimming teams as well as arranging all the schedules of all the teams, was absent due to illness. After a very good dinner the coach and then captain of the hockey team spoke, the latter presenting Mr. Humble with a lighter on behalf of the team. The Head- master made references to the old days when boys cut their own hockey sticks and played under the viaduct or at Duck Harbour. He also spoke of plans for a covered rink. Then followed some very good speeches by the coaches and captains of the other teams, dwelling mainly on the fact that although all games were not won, the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 teams all had fun and showed the spirit of co-operation and drive which characterizes T.C.S. teams. Hubie Sinclair, last year's Head Prefect and an out- standing athlete, brought a very enjoyable evening to a suitable close by telling us how important athletics were after we leave School and how necessary it is to try out for sports as there is no compulsion at University to do so. Our thanks are due to Mrs. Wilkin and her staff for providing such a good meal. The dinner was one of the most successful in many years. Fo1mder's Day On May 1, the School celebrated its eighty-second anniversary. Because of bad weather the additional half- holiday was postponed until the following Saturday, when all morning classes were cancelled. A special Founder's Day Service was held in the Chapel at night. Half Holiday On Monday, May 5, the School was given a half holi- day in honour of two Old Boys, William Mood and Peter Southam, who have recently visited the School with their brides. As the Weather was poor, the boys were given leave to see the Jolson Story which was showing at the town theatre.

Our special thanks must also go to Miss Wilkin and Mrs. Crowe for all the work they did with decoration and Hxing up of the Junior School, while Mrs. Wilkin and her staff deserve much credit for the wonderful supper they served for such a large crowd. 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD . - A XV Xu g 49143 t Ai X i E' A li. THE NEW TUCK Ever-present in our minds since last June when the first ground was turned has been the new tuck shop. The absent stares from the B Sz C windows focused often on the scene of activity across the campus. The small groups wandering towards tuck were usually seen to stray off course to investigate the latest row of bricks or examine the intricate wiring. For a year the School waited for, and talked about, the new tuck, while on the edge of the foot- ball field a fine new school building arose. On Monday, March 17, Miss Fick and Mrs. Wright finally threw open t.heir doors to boys of the School. Inside they found a huge. clean room with an open fire-place at one end. Two large bay windows looked out on the campus. Laurentian resort-type pine furniture was scattered generously around the room. A comfortable sofa formed the centre of a group around the fire-place while the rest of the room contained tables and chairs. The savoury smell of hot, home-cooked dishes emerged from the kitchen and floated towards the stained wooden beams of the ceiling. Abundant electric light poured from attrac- tive fixtures. Gay new plates were passed back and forth across the spacious. counter. What the boys did not see was the large bright kitchen roughly twice the size of the ordinary room at school. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 complete with stove and oven, sink, two-door refrigerator and unlimited cupboards. At the back and at one end of the buildings are Miss Fick's and Mrs. Wright's living quarters composed of two bedrooms, bath and living room. In the basement are storage rooms and the oil furnace. Battleship linoleum covers all floors. With their ration-board permits, Miss Fick and Mrs. Wright expect to feed the boys with substantial, home- cooked dishes. Buttered toast, hot sandwiches, home- made buns and cake, milk shakes and tea will always be there. When the snow melted, a flag-stone terrace appear- ed in front of the low brick building. The building itself is early-American and has a New England look about it. A four-sided clock is to be mounted in the cupola on the roof. The appearance of this new building on our campus is another step in the history of the School and we all realize how it will prove its worth many times over during the years to come. Our sincere thanks go to its generous donors, Mr. and Mrs. Blair Russel of Montreal, who gave it in memory of their son, Hugh. -J. A. Powell, Form VIA. THE MEN BEHIND THE SCENES The workmen of the School, the men behind the scenes who are often taken for granted, are nevertheless, a real part of the School, and We feel that the School and readers of the Record will be interested to know more about them. Edwin Nash, dean of the School's workmen, is super- intendent, and is in charge of the Work of the men around the School. Starting as a boy, he worked for ten years in the garden of the vicarage at Froyls, England, and then took a course in motor mechanics. When Dr. Orchard then asked him to come out to Canada, he came with the intention of staying two years, but that has now stretched out to some twenty-seven years of valuable work. At first he looked after the Lodge and the garden, and saw service 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD through the fire, and the exile to Woodstock. About 1940 he became Superintendent and as such is in charge of the grounds, the buildings, the barns, and supervises the work of all the men outside. Probably his greatest achievement has been keeping in running order the School's old Ford- son tractor, now some thirty years old and which the School acquired in 1933 for some 375. And this is all the more remarkable because it was never kept under cover. Every week from the end of April till the beginning of October for the last fourteen years it has mowed the ten acres of the School campus. This year the jeep was added to the School's equipment, and because of its numerous uses and time-saving qualities Edwin feels it is ideal for his work. In fact one might say that he is in love with the jeep. It can be used for mowing, snowshovelling, and as a light truck for all the odd jobs that are necessary around such an institution as this. Edwin's job is an all year round one, for the whole summer is spent in painting buildings, the spring and fall in mowing and rolling lawns. the winter in clearing snow from roads and rinks, and be- sides these there are always a million and one other odd jobs to be done. Because he is an expert carpenter, pain- ter, motor mechanic, gardener, Edwin Nash is indeed an invaluable superintendent, but in addition he is always calm and willing to help day in and day out. On December 26, 1924, T.C.S. received a Christmas present in the form of Ben Cole. Previously he had work- ed for four years in coal mines in Newcastle-on-Tyne and then served from 1912-24 in the Royal Marines. He was on H.M.S. Cochrane in the Battle of Jutland and saw ser- vice at Murmansk and Petsamo. After the war he served in the Ramillies and the Valiant before coming to Canada and T.C.S. as second cook, at a time when the Junior School only employed men in the kitchen. In June, 1925, he left for a short time but returned as general handyman in April 1927, and since 1930 he has been happy as janitor in the confines of Bethune House. Always very interested in the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31' boys, he had been closely connected with the Cadet Corps. In the fall of 1928 he started teaching the new boys rifle drill because there were some Cuban boys who only spoke Spanish. When military studies were introduced in 1940 he taught knots and lashings and gas training, and for two years he took an interesting course in naval gun drill. In looking back over the period he has spent here, Ben recalls many amusing incidents. Among them is the mystery of the disappearance of the clapper from the Chapel bell in 1927. Three days later, the culprit unseen by anyone re- placed it, and to this day Ben has wondered who it was. CPerhaps some Old Boys know more about thisl. Ben also has vivid memories of the confusion during the fire. Now that he looks back over it, some of the incidents were very silly, though they were serious enough at the time. For instance, he recalls that the town's horse and buggy fire engine raced up the hill, only to knock one of its wheels off against one of the trees at the top. Ben remembers a skeleton that hung in Mr. Lewis' lab at Woodstock, which rattled with an eerie effect at night. During his long ser- vice at T.C.S. Ben has always taken a keen interest in the boys themselves and has always got along with them very well. Back in 1913, when Mr. Ketchum was still a boy at the School, Alf. Gustar was driving horse drawn livery car- riages for Lingard's in Port Hope. He had previously been in the army for twelve years, having fought with the 30th Hussars in the Boer War and he represented his regiment at King EdWard's coronation. In 1914 he re-enlisted in the 4th Battery of the Canadian Artillery and served for four year in France and Belgium where he was a Rough Rider, which involved horse-breaking for the army. In 1921 he returned to Canada and worked at Gananoque as section foreman on the railway for six years. There he continued his equine interests and drove trotting horses in many races in that district. He then returned to Port Hope and Worked for a number of years in the Sanitary works. In 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 1939 he came to T.C.S. and took up sanitary work of a dif- ferent kind, first as Junior School janitor and three years later as Brent House janitor. Now as janitor of the class room block, he looks after the seats of learning. Mr. Tappendem, who does carpentry work in Mr. Grace's shop and helps with the grounds, came to T.C.S. three years ago, after a long period of service in girls' schools. After spending the last war as a Gunner in the Artillery, and then working in Union Bank in Winnipeg, he came east in 1920 to Montreal to take charge of the grounds and gardening at the Trafalgar Girls' School. After thirteen years in such pleasant surroundings he paid a short visit to England. Returning just before the war, he was at the Edgar Cramp School for Girls in Montreal, before coming to T.C.S. Surprising as it may seem, he finds that T.C.S. is quite a change from a girls' school but he declares that the boys are no worse. Little is seen around the School of Earl Lowthian, who with George Campbell looks after maintenance, be- cause so much of his time is spent in the boiler room, but he has been at T.C.S. since he left Port Hope High School in 1936. For the first four years he worked in the Lodge and the Junior School under Edwin but since then he has been in the boiler room. This winter he left for about four months to work in the Cosmos Chemical plant in Port Hope but recently the prodigal son returned to T.C.S. and what he now looks upon as home. Just as he feels that the School has become a part of him, so has he become a part of the School. Of all the men around the School George Campbell has probably had the most interesting career. He left school at the age of twelve to go to sea, and his first voyage was on a sailing ship to Australia. When he re- turned, his family prevailed upon him to stay at home and so he took his apprenticeship shipbuilding on the Clyde- side. He became a marine engineer on merchant ships and later served on many C.P.R. ships. Without a doubt T.C.S.'s TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 most widely travelled member, he has been all over the world, to Australia, New Zealand, the Orient, Japan, China, India, the Near East, Egypt, East and West Africa, the Mediterranean states and many others. In fact Norway, Denmark and Portugal are about the only nations he has not visited. Travel broadens man's outlook, and it has given George a very comprehensive education, despite lack of schooling, as those who have talked with him will realize. After a while, however, he found that the con- stant movement of a seaman's career leads to a very dis- rupted life and he settled down to become a stationary engineer working in various factories and institutions. Since he came to T.C.S. ten years ago as Chief Engineer in charge of the heating, electrical, and plumbing systems, and of general maintenance, the School has seldom suf- fered inconveniences by their failure. Always an ardent supporter of T.C.S. football and hockey teams, he rarely misses a home game and often travels afar to see the boys in action. These are the men behind the scenes whom we see plodding on with the maintenance of the School everyday but whom we do not often get the chance to come to know. lEditor's Note: We hope to have a reminiscence of cricket 1914-1947 by Mr. Grace in the near futurej. -R. L. Watts, Form VIA. - CAPTAIN SAM BATT Stop yoah darn foolin' in the ranks or I shall 'ave to soak you beggahsf' These same words have been uttered many times in our gymnasium and you can bet your 1409 or Short Magazine Lee-Enfield Mark Three Star that every boy that has been to T.C.S. will remember those words. The man who shoots that line-that's right, it's Captain Sam Batt, our physical instructor, probably better known as the man who made the weight of the pull-through famous. 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mr. Batt came to the School in 1921 after four years of teaching at R.M.C. In those days he was a rip-roaring Sar' Major. Now as a captain he has cut his ripping to a minimum, but he still roars with the best of them. He came originally from England having taken an Army course at Aldershot and attended a Musketry School at Hythe in Kent. The experience gained from this schooling has proved invaluable, for he has handed on this knowledge to the boys of the School. The result of his teachings was an exceptional Trinity College School war record. Next to the boys themselves, the credit for this splendid effort should go to Captain Batt. We all know what marvellous gymnasts he has turned out, but it is not generally known that he himself was an outstanding athlete. Modesty is the reason for this but we managed to pry out of him a few of his feats in the world of sports. He was a boxer of no mean calibre having been runner-up for many years in the Southern Command of the Army while in England. At the Olympic games of 1908 he was on the British Army Gym. Eight which came third that year. The fact that he himself was such a good athlete and fine soldier accounts for the fact that he has turned out boys with the same admirable qualities. To illustrate how much he has done for the School we must go back twenty- six years to when he first came. In those days the cadets were poorly disciplined. They used to drill in the orchard and hence more time was devoted to apple tossing than marching. Also, they wore white uniforms that got dirty very easily. To quote Mr. Batt himself, They looked like a flock of street cleaners . In 1921 the School had no gym. team. At that time a boy standing on his hands was greeted with roars of applause and considered a candidate for the circus. The first Bigside gym. competition ever held had the same exercises as the Littleside competition of to-day. Such was the state of the School at the arrival of Mr. Batt. Five years later in 1926, he took the School TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 to Toronto to take part in a competition that included physical training, cadet work and gym. team work-outs. Thirteen cups were offered and T.C.S. took twelve of them and came a close second in the thirteenth. Since that time some outstanding gymnasts have been coached by him. The most notable team was that which won the Cana- dian Championship at the Canadian National Exhibition. The boys on this team were Acton Fleming, Will Mood, Stal Armstrong. Shooting at the School has also undergone a. gigantic change thanks to the work of Mr. Batt. He was an expert rifle shot himself having numerous awards to his credit. the most prized being four silver and five bronze medals given by the King. He introduced markmanship to the School you might say. This, however, had dire con- sequences at first. The boys liked shooting so much that they got their own rifles and proceeded to practice their shots by picking off all the telephone insulators that were around the School. This met with decided disapproval and from that day private guns have been banned in the School. When he came to the School Captain Batt found a makeshift rifle range under the gym. The boys used to hang their gym. clothes along the side of the range. This inevitably led to riddled gym. kits, as the boys considered the white ducks and shirts much better targets than the regular ones at the other end. But that was back in 1921. Now-a-days we have a modern rifle range and super accur- ate marksmen who have won for Mr. Batt the Empire Challenge Shield and other trophies of importance. The Old Boys will probably maintain that the old targets were much better anyway. However, Captain Batt himself would rather talk about the amusing experiences and the boys of the past, than himself. One of his best stories has to do with the School bell. It seems that one of the boys removed the clapper from the big bell, so that it wouldn't sound when rung. Thus when the deaf jainitor started to ring the bell 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to bring them in from the playing fields to supper, the boys failed to respond. The janitor, not realizing what had happened, kept on pulling the rope for another ten minutes. After a quarter of an hour of this, one of the staff, now utterly confused, rushed up to the bell tower and finally the mystery of the soundless bell was solved. Captain Batt has many stories to relate such as these and they all go to prove that he has a fine sense of humour, and also show how much he enjoys every part of School life. It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Batt has devoted every spare minute to bettering T.C.S. His every action has been to do something for the boys in the School. Dur- ing his career at Trinity he has coached seven Ontario gymnastic champions, one Junior Canadian Champion, Stal Armstrong, and one Canadian Champion Gym. Team. In short, he has an enviable record as an instruc- tor and as a fine soldier. The boys of the School will never forget Sam Batt nor the service he has done for the School. -H. A.

The gym. was crowd- ed to overflowing and after a brief introduction by the Headmaster the curtain rose on the Dramatic Society's presentation of The Queen's Husband by Robert Sher- wood. The setting of The Queen's Husband is a mythical island kingdom in the North Sea and the time is in the early thirties. The whole action takes place in the king's office, the scenes for which were very well painted by Mr. Key's art classes. The king, on whom the whole action of the play hinges, is shown in the first act as a meek, quiet man who, during his whole reign, has let his overbearing wife and reactionary premier, General Northrup, run him and his country. When Northrup's stupidity precipitates a revolution, the king quietly takes control and stops it. Again in the third act, when Northrup fails to carry out his promises to the people, the king dissolves Parliament and dismisses the Prime Minister. At the end of the play We see the king quite ready to let the queen take over again. Interest is also centred round the romance of Princess Anne with Granton, the king's secretary. Up until the last moments of the play, Anne is to be forced to make a diplomatic marriage with the objectionable Prince William of Greek. At the last moment the king spoils all the queen's plans for the wedding by marrying his daughter to her true lover and sending them off to South America. 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mr. Dale and Ron Watts directed the play and seem to have done an almost perfect job of casting and coach- ing the actors. Much of the play's great success was due to their untiring efforts. G. R. Campbell iii seemed to live the part of the weak and brow-beaten king who finally rises to his responsibilities. His reliability on the stage and his excellent acting were major factors in making the play run smoothly. Lawson i as Northrup played the part so well that by the end of the play he was despised by the whole audience. His acting of Northrup's disappointment when, in the last scene, all his hopes are dashed to the ground, could not have been done better. Ian Bovey made an exceptionally pretty princess and Geoffrey Taylor an ardent lover. Together they carried off successfully what were probably the hardest scenes in the play! D. Doheny was from start to finish the stiff-backed, overbearing queen that he was supposed to be. R. Butterfield i as Fellman was a forceful progressive, and aside from acting, he also did a great deal of work as property manager. Laker, the anarchist, as played by D. Rhea, was as fiery as his red hair and moustache sug- gested. K. Newcomb portrayed the obsequious politician and P. Pangman, as the objectionable and conceited Prince William, was so funny that he almost stole the show. Elliot as Phipps, the kingis butler and opponent at chec- kers, and Bermingham as Petley, -whose chief job was to ensure that the coast was clear for the king, were two very colourful footmen. Chester and Macklem ii played two very frightened ladies-in-waiting while Timmins as Major Blent, O.C. the palace guard, with Taylor ii and Woods i two stalwart hussars, were very colourful and dashing men-at-arms. All these last parts are comparatively small, but it is through these characters that the play obtains that added something that makes the difference between an excellent play and a mediocre one. They all deserve a great deal of praise. Much credit is also due to the un- derstudies who had an arduous and inglorious job of TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 memorizing leading roles just in case . Thompson iii did a very good job as sound effects man and is to be con- gratulated. There was a reception in the Hall after the play for members of the cast and the many visitors. The School is much indebted to all the ladies who assisted with make-up and costumes and to all those who helped behind the scenes. The play was the result of many weeks of hard work by the members of the cast, the Dramatic Society, and Tom Lawson, its president. It was a great success in every way.

The first, and unfortunately, probably the only inter- school debate at the School this year, was held in the Hall on Friday night, April 25, against a three man team from Upper Canada College. It was the first of a home and home contest and the motion was Resolved that Modern Science has been an obstacle rather than an impetus to human progress . Parliamentary procedure had previously been agreed upon and T.C.S. represented the Government and U.C.C. the Opposition. The Upper Canada team was officially welcomed by the Headmaster after which T. W. Lawson, president of the T.C.S. Debating Society, who was acting as speaker, explained the rules of the debate which he then opened. G. A. Payne the first speaker for the Government gave several quite good examples to illustrate that science, like a cancerous growth, develops at the expense of our moral and physical progress, while in reply, T. Crerar, the first speaker for the Opposition, demonstrated how science had reduced the hardships and supplied all the material comforts of our lives. The second speaker for the Government, D. Campbell, showed by reference to certain current books and movies, that the misuse of these developments of science has done much to lower our moral standards. R. Johnston coun- tered for the Opposition by showing that science has made possible universal education and the great advances in 48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD medicine which have been realised during the past few years. The third speaker for the Government, H. A. Hyde, spoke well and humorously, pointing out how science has given mankind a selfish materialistic outlook on life. D. Coayes, the last speaker for the Opposition, although speaking in a low tone, showed by several good examples that scientific progress was a good way to keep us going ahead mentally and physically. After a short rebuttal by Payne, Messrs. Ryan, Bonne- ville and Wilson, all of Port Hope, who had very kindly agreed to act as judges, retired to consider their decision and the debate was thrown open to members of the House. Shortly before the judges returned, a division of the House was made which indicated a 51-44 majority for the Government. Mr. Ryan, however, speaking for the judges, after a few comments on the debate itself, awarded the decision to our visitors on the Opposition. T.C.S. at Upper Canada College The following evening, Saturday, April 26, the same motion was debated at U.C.C. but with different teams and Trinity taking the negative while Upper Canada upheld the affirmative. Once again the debate, which was held in the U.C.C. library, was close and quite well attended. George Con- nell of U.C.C. acted as chairman and the judges were R. Watts of T.C.S. and J. Connolly of U.C.C. The debate was opened by G. Norman for the affirma- tive, who, after repeating the motion Resolved that mo- dern science has been an obstacle rather than an impetus to human progress , showed that man is a slave of his machines. He was followed by P. Alley of T.C.S., who pointed out that science has forced us to go ahead in all fields, a point which he illustrated by several good ex- amples. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 Hugh Rowan, speaking second for the affirmative, pointed out that science had brought about the Industrial Revolution which robbed man of the measure of security which he enjoyed under feudalism. J. Barton fT.C.S.J re- plying for the negative showed how modern science by in- creasing man's leisure time has given him the opportunity for moral and spiritual progress. Walter Massey CU.C.C.J who spoke third for the affirmative, pointed to science as the cause of the change in wars from small battles involving only a few to mass slaughter. The last speaker for the negative, Dwight Fulford CT.C.S.J showed in a very witty speech that ad- vancing science is providing modern civilization with a challenge which must be met. After a short rebuttal by Norman lU.C.C.J, the judges retired and the debate was thrown open to discus- sion. After almost three-quarters of an hour the judges returned and following a few critical remarks J. Connolly awarded the decision to T.C.S., although a vote of the spectators favoured the affirmative. All things considered, these two debates with Upper Canada were a great success. We feel that the standard of the speeches was very high but that a little more time might have been spent on effective rebutting and that in future it might be a fairer test of speaking ability if neither side read their speeches. ll 13133 5G TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Housfe Notcsf BRENT HOUSE NOTES Port Hope, Ont., May 10, 1947. Dear Joe, I've got a lot to tell you Joe. To-day I visited T.C.S. for their Inspection. The cadets and the gym. were good, but there's something else concerning the School that I want to tell you about. - No doubt you've heard of the great scientist at T.C.S., C. Scott. Well to-day I visited his great collection of scien- tific Wonders. You should have been here to see them. I've never seen anything like it before! These exhibits are kept in a building they call Brent House, they should call it the Building of Marvels. If you ever get the chance, Joe, make sure to come and see them. Without a doubt one of Mr. Sco-tt's best exhibits is his perpetual motion machine. You know all through the ages scientists have been trying to invent such a thing but they all met with failure. Men like Bernoulli, Orffyraeus, Leo- nardo da Vinci, and Sir William Congreve tried, but none of them succeeded. But here at last is the solution. Around T.C.S. it apparently goes by the code name of Rufus. You should see it in action, it never stands still. To take care of this machine and the whole collection, which is quite a tall order, there is a special curator. A modest unassuming chap, they call him Humble Harry. Among these exhibits are several examples of an amazing species of animal that Scott, the scientist, has de- veloped from the human species. In these the mental power of the homo sapiens is combined with the strength YI ' e-1 I e' 'ln THE SQUASH TEAM Left to Rigfn:-R. S. Jarvis. The Headmaster, L. K. Black, XV. N. Conyers. W.

These combinations of brain and brawn have been developed in three sizes, the large, the medium. and the peanut sizes. In the latter class are Brooks and Panet. who, it is rumoured, will soon fight it out for the World Atom Weight for is it Molecular Weight ?J Boxing Crown. Another truly amazing machine, which always seems to be on the verge of collapse but which somehow manages to stagger on because of the work of the maintenance de- partment under Miss Ryan, is McDowe1l. Yet with all its frailty, this gadget has such a delicate sense of timing that it can compete with stronger animals that Mr. Scott has developed. This House of Marvels will also make great contri- butions to the music of the world. One need only listen outside the showers in the early hours of the morn- ing, to cast away all doubts. When I approached the build- ing, what I had first mistaken for a fog-horn turned out to be the golden-throated Sinatra Stewart. It is reported that his super-tone vocal cords are of an entirely new design, and I am inclined to believe this. Of more ortho- dox design are the cords of Wilf Curtis, who rumour has it is setting new precedents in the art of being a Romeo! Unfortunately I cannot testify whether that is correct, Joe. In another great exhibit were two great computation instruments, which evidently are among the most accurate in existence. Mr. Scott evidently has two quite different models. One, the Jasper model, quite often seems to do things backwards, but it always manages to achieve the desired results. It is without a doubt truly remarkable and nowhere else may a similar machine be seen. The other model, of equal accuracy, is more simple and straightforward, and has the trade mark Wi1liamson . Slow reacting people will be interested to hear that in another exhibit are two special fast moving machines, de- signed to teach people to have quicker reflexes. The cura- tor assured rne that as such, these two machines brought 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD from Hamilton, have proved a great success. The flicking machines are of two types, the Wood , and the Drynanf' Another development among the exhibits, of highly scientific note, are the two robots that Mr. Scott has de- veloped. One of these, a gaunt-looking machine is the most silent of all contraptions I saw, but in its own way it smoothly accomplishes its work, especially on the playing fields. It is in contrast to the perpetual motion machine which is constantly emitting a roar to the rhythm of Rowdy Dow . The other robot is the steamroller type and is recommended for football coaches. If Mr Scott were to mass produce such robots he would probably ad- vertise them as so round, so firm, so fully packed, so free and easy on the draw. Spelled backward it is ERYTNICMH. If you're ever coaching a football team, Joe, be sure and get one. Another display I saw showed two great fish-eating birds of the Paynus Mexicanus and the Peewitticus Mexi- canus species. Birds with such widespread range are rare, but these are said to hunt fish from the waters of the northern Ganaraska, even to the tropics. About the only fish they refuse to consume appears to be the dead species served at T.C.S. on Tuesdays and Fridays. Well, Joe, I could go on forever describing the numer- ous marvels I saw to-day, but paper these days is rationed, so I'll stop for now. But remember, if you ever get the chance, visit The House That Scott Built. Yours, Bill.

But whatever the cause, the strong north wind had carried the fire to the south, sweeping it across the territories like a great scorching brand, and leaving behind the ashes of a forest. In its path lay the charred and blackened remains of majestic trees, lying stiffly upon the ground and against one another, while only the tough birch remained standing, stark and grotesque, pointed at the sky. He was aroused from a light sleep at dusk by the crackling of the fire and the orange glow of the tiames. He had only time to fill a pack with canned provisions, grab his surveying instruments, an axe and his rifle be- fore the fire had surrounded his shack. He did not look back, but he could see in his mind's eye a burning tree trunk crumbling across the roof, searing through the thin boards. As he ran he realized that he would never return, for territory that had been gutted and ruined by fire would never be used as a game park, and the survey company would send him elsewhere. It was only a mile to the dam where his canoe was lying, and he was half way there al- ready. At that point he had reached the top of a cliff and could see the old Indian river that flowed deep and very swift, full of rapids and falls. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 As he ran up, panting, to the dam, he suddenly realized what terrific damage would be done. To lose the territory was bad enough, but the countless teeming animals that roamed the country that was intended as a game reserve would all die in agony. The advancing fire would trap them against the river bank, and there they would huddle, anxious and trembling, until the fire came so close that they would slither down the steep banks to the powerful, gurgling current. As he stood thinking, he did not realize that the fire had changed direction, and was headed more towards the east, towards the dam. A few thin wisps of acrid wood smoke told him that he had better push off before the fire reached the river and cut off his escape. If only he had four or five men with him! Together they could have smashed free the planks in the dam that kept the current in check, and could have flooded the low- lands just north of the river with a foot or two of water, which would have saved most of the animals. He felt very deeply for the animals he knew so well. Burned alive! He could not put the thought of their horrible death from his mind. The fire was coming nearer, and he could hear the roar of the flames above that of the river, and see the bright red glow in the sky only about a quarter of a mile away. Suddenly a stag, crazed and burnt by the heat of the flames, bounded wildly through the woods, and leaped without hesitation into the river. The surveyor watched. knowing the animal didn't have a chance. The current pulled it down, and the stag disappeared before the river was lost to sight in the trees. This left him cold and determined. Grabbing his axe, he ran along the concrete shoulder of the dam and began slashing feverishly at the key boards in the sluice. The wood was tough and well water-soaked, and each stroke left the axe stubbornly imbedded in the plank. The fire was much closer now, great gusts of smoke flew over- head on the high wind, and the flames could be seen above the forest. He did not think of himself, for already the 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD planks in the first sluice were rudely cut, and a great wave of water split the remaining boards and surged down the narrow river, flowing over the banks and flooding the low-lying land. He turned to the next sluice, fairly con- fident that the searing heat of the fire would not hurt him on the dam. The fire had reached the bank of the river when he finished cutting away the wood holding back the water in the second sluice. Then he began to feel the heat. Sweat stood out all over his face, and ran in little rivulets down his arms and between the big blue veins that ridged his hands. A burning brand fell close to him in the water and the hissing steam swirled up about his legs. But his fear and determination gave him strength, and the axe fell steadily, stroke after stroke, and the chips of wood flew off and were lost in the swirling water. The thick, choking smoke blew across the water and stung his eyes and throat. He ripped off his shirt and his straining torso glistened in the lurid light of the flames. The axe fell, the planks ripped, another great rush of water-he staggered towards the last sluice. He did not see or hear the great elm, flaming like a torch, waver at its great height and start slowly falling. There was a great shower of sparks and hissing of steam. The trunk of the elm lay resting across the thick concrete at the centre of the dam .... The next day a young fawn, only two months old, nuzzled about the high grass for food. It stood in a foot of water, and everywhere the ground seemed wet and marshy. To the young fawn, the water was a nuisance, but he had already forgotten the night of the fire and the hopeless terror he had felt before the great rush of water came from the hills and saved the land. As the sun rose higher, the yellow rays shone through the black trees on a black land. -G. B. Taylor, Form VIA. . . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IN THE WILDERNESS It was an evening in May, eighteen hundred and twenty-four, in the brilliant, happy city of Vienna. where life was joyous and gay, where troubles and cares were forgotten, where love and wine ran rich and free, and where music, like an unceasing fountain, showered every- thing with its glorious sound. This great metropolis of gaiety was a dazzling display of sparkling lights, and the whole atmosphere seemed to bubble over with laughter and romance. The many concert halls, abundant in the best of music, were filled to capacity with an audience who. although frivolous and pleasure-seeking, were yet musical and critical, the entertainment therefore having to be of the finest quality to receive enthusiastic applause. One hall was especially packed, if that was possible, for al- though the work being played was having its premier per- formance, the composer and his compositions were well known and held in the highest esteem. Yet it was in that composer that both fame and tragedy walked hand in hand. Fame and tragedy .... a pathetic combination in a city where frivolity reigned supreme. There he sat, near the chorus, beating time with his hands for his own benefit, while the orchestra performed his ninth symphony-the great Choral Symphony. He was a little dwarf of a man, with a huge, ugly head that far out-proportioned his small, deformed body, and was cover- ed with a tangled mass of long hair, forming a fiery halo around his tragic face. His mouth was carved in a per- petual scowl and his deep-set eyes flashed venomously under his thick, knitted eyebrows like little, flaming glints of steel. His clothes were of the poorest quality, untidy, ill-fitting, ill-assorted and dirty. His entire appearance indicated only too clearly that he was eccentric and lonely, both uncared for and unloved. What a pitiful creature he seemed. Yet there sat one of the greatest musical geniuses the world has ever known, and to that world he 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD gave all he had, everything he possessed, his cheering hap- piness, his deep-moving sadness, his gruff humour, his stinging bitterness, his tender love, his overwhelming hatred, his triumphant hope, his tragic grief, his life. Such a man was Ludwig van Beethoven. What a magnificant piece of music, what unsurpassed greatness! At first hesitant and doubtful, it seemed to be searching for something, but soon it became decided, bold, determined. Then powerful and brutal, like some vast moving force, swift and vital. Now light and quick in the staccato utterance of the strings. Now lyrical and melodic, almost prophetic, in the lovely tones of the Woodwinds. Now soft and tender, a flowing passage of ethereal beauty, signifying peace and love, something Beethoven himself never experienced. How serene it seemed, how calm and tranquil! Then suddenly the whole atmosphere was changed, the mist was violently swept away, and the air was filled with a feeling of joyous, triumphant, unparalleled happiness, all the orchestra pouring forth its jubilant praise. On and on the music raced, to glorious heights until the whole world seemed to burst into song, a mighty song of exaltation, resounding throughout the universe. An attribute to God himself! Then it was over and the audience rose as a body in a tremendous ovation to acclaim this mighty work. But the composer was still sitting there, beating time. One of the chorus, noticing him and realizing the cause, touched him on the shoulder and turned him towards the cheering crowd that he might see them applaud. He had been living in a wilderness of silence for over twenty years. He had given to the world music that he himself could never hear. That was Bee- thoven! -F. H. S. Cooper, Form VIB. ,-. T.1.. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 SONNET It is not to be forgotten, that short past Of which our country is so proud, Unlike those o'er the seas, it lies not fast In some dark corner hidden in a cloud Of bloody hatred, selfishness and vice, Not that: We cherish in our hearts the dove Of peace, our people have made sacrifice, We share, and do not preach self-love. u From out the Northland comes the wind, o r flag's unfurled, Its stirring, meanful colours shed their beams, A hopeful light to a dark World. We are the rudder to some millions' dreams, Remember this, add to the glory that is ours, Our light above this world of hunger towers. -D. McDonald, Form IVA. - AN UNSUNG HERO Everyone knows himg no one appreciates him. He is universally condemned by radio, press, and people as a public enemy, as a destructive nuisance, even as a killer. This is a grossly misguided conception, for he is a noble benefactor and a public hero--an unsung hero. Who is he? Why, none other than jolly old Jack Frost. Each year as the golden leaves at the peak of their magnificence begin to fade and fall from their frame of autumn skies, and as the summer sunsets transform them- selves from a deep mellow scarlet into a penetrating pur- ple, then a cool stillness fills the evening shadow, a calm, crystal chilliness that clears the night air of mosquitoes. inviting us to come out and be refreshed. The dim haze of the early morning reveals not the sparkling myriads of dancing dewdrops that each summer 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD sunrise brought, but instead a velvet carpet of mossy whiteness. Here is old Jack in the crisp cloak that bears his name. Not many days later we awake to find the world buried in a blanket of thick softness. Like a doctor dressed in white, Jack emerges in all his splendour to set about his wintry work, his operation , During the weeks that follow, Jack receives abuse and condemnation from all sides. People who do not have the initiative to get out and enjoy some fresh air curse him as the creator of another drudgery, shovelling sidewalks. This irks Jack as it would anyone, and he decides to give them some real work to do. So one night he gathers his forces together, and with a mighty sweep lashes down leaving in his wake a smothered earth. The press and radio scream of his villainy, of snowbound communications, of stranded settlements. Everyone joins the bandwagon crusading against Jack. But during this period we see his handiwork. During the long winter months his furry cloak has gathered all the filth, the dust, and the dirt of a year's breeding. The coat dissolves into water which joins the streams and rivers and flows away carrying with it all nature's waste and rubbish of the past year. The Spring arrives and the air is filled with freshness, newness, brightness. And Jack can sleep for another year, satisfied that he has done a good job, that he has rid the land of impurity and cleansed it. Jack Frost is certainly responsible in a great degree for the hardy, healthy race that the people of Canada have always been. -T. W. Lawson, Form VIA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 ANIMAL LANGUAGE Language has many forms. There is the spoken, the written, the use of gestures, the expression of ideas by the eyes, and a language whereby the spirit communicates with spirit. All these forms are used by animals, though each kind may have its own variation or dialect. Animals experience the same emotions as man does-joy, grief. despair, hope, gratitude or fear, and these are all shown by some form of language. Animals have been called dumb, but the real fault lies in the fact that man until re- cently did not realize that animals had a language of their own, because he could not understand it. The animals themselves can understand each other, though a spoken word is not necessary. North American Indians of different tribes who did not know each other's speech, were able to converse without the use of a word, by a simple sign language learnt in a few hours. Animals likewise can understand each other. For instance, there is the story of two shepherds who met in a market-place in Scotland, each with his own dog. One was a sheep mur- derer and the other was a faithful respectable dog. They seemed to strike up such a remarkable friendship that their owners decided together to keep watch on them. That evening both dogs left their homes at the same hour, to join each other, and set off after sheep. These two dogs had enough language to understand each other, and the criminal had invited the other to join him and each had kept his appointment. They used the language of look and gesture without audible sounds, and had acted on the ideas thus conveyed. Nor is it uncommon for animals of dif- ferent species to talk and become friends. One often hears of such pets as dogs and cats becoming great friends. Man and animals can also communicate with each other, otherwise domestication would be almost impossible. Animals can make themselves understood by man much in the same way as babies do, though their language may not 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD be intelligible. From the tone of a dog's bark we can in- terpret joy, anger, terror and other feelings, and it is the same with the neighing of horses, and the mewing of cats. They are as intelligible to us as the chattering of African Hottentots, and yet just because we do not understand their language, it doesn't mean the Hottentots haven't one. The animals have a language, but the only Way we can understand it is by their inflection and gestures. Like- wise animals can understand human language, though they may not know the precise meaning of the Words. Mr. Engleholm of the New York Zoological Park had a chim- panzee that would obey forty-three commands, and more- over, thirty-six of these were not accompanied by gesture and therefore it must have understood the meaning of the Words used. In this case the ability was quite highly de- veloped, but animals in general possess it to a certain de- gree. Most domesticated animals like the dog, horse, ox, or sheep understand human language, though perhaps not the exact words. In olden days men believed that animals and men could not understand each other because they thought that animals had not language. To-day we understand that animals are subject to the same emotions and that they have a common language with man, in a universal brotherhood of living creatures. -R. L.

Ligertwood C43-'45l 1i.1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 SPORTS EDITORIAL Looking back upon the winter term one cannot help but regard it athletically as a very successful season. successful not only from the standpoint of games won, but, and this point is of prime importance, because of the number of boys engaged in the wide variety of sports offered by this School. There were five School hockey teams which along with Mr. Gwynne Timothy's Rabbit League provided a large number of boys with as much hockey as the very limited ice facilities would allow. This seems to be an ideal spot to consider the difficulties which the School has had in obtaining ice. The town rink which has been our standby since the School rink burnt down in 1928, was booked solidly and we were very lucky to obtain the few hours of ice which were allotted to us. As the town rink was used almost exclusively by Bigside this meant that the one good outdoor rink had to be used by four School teams and the Rabbit League. This meant that each boy had little actual skating. Two basketball teams were entered in C.O.S.S.A. groups and acquitted themselves very favorably. The squash team tied for the Little Big Four championship de- spite the fact that the School needs some new courts. The high standard of the Gym. work was maintained and the 'drst team put on a show at McGill which according to all reports was excellent. There were many enthusiastic skiers and with the added impetus of the Bill Strong Memorial Trophy and outside competitions skiing has fully regained its prewar popularity. Sufficient time was set aside this year for the train- ing of the swimming team and Mr. Hodgetts was well rewarded for his time and trouble. The team won five of its six meets and did very well in the Little Big Four meet at Hart House. Swimming, according to medical authori- ties, is the best known exercise for the body and is used 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD extensively in the cure of infantile paralysis. If this ex- cellent and very valuable sport is to be encouraged it will be necessary to ensure that a coach and a lengthy training period are again made available to the members of the team. The most drastic basketball defeat suffered by the School was on the night of April 14 in a contest which pitted the Schoo1's Romeos against a bevy of beautiful girls representing all parts of Ontario and Quebec. This array of all-stars completely overwhelmed the School's feeble re- sistance and after the iirst few seconds the outcome was never in doubt and the iinal score was 67-0 against us. Already plans are being laid for next year's return engage- ment but we fear land hope! that the victors' margin will be increased considerably. V -A.C.B.W. SWIMMING LITTLE BIG FOUR SWIMMING MEET At Hart House, March 22 A powerful Ridley College Swimming team over- whelmed its Little Big Four rivals to win the annual meet held at Hart House. Ridley more than doubled the scores of Upper Canada and Trinity who finished in a tie for second place with twenty-eight points while St. Andrew's finished last with nineteen points. A mistake in the diving originally put T.C.S. in second place but when the results were checked the error was discovered and the corrected score produced the tie. . Sanborn who finished second in the 200 yards and Hughes, who finished second in the 100, were the outstand- ing swimmers for the School team which did very well against its older opponents.. Two of the Ridley swimmers are being considered for the Canadian Olympic team which gives a fair indication to the brand of swimming displayed. i-- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 SCHOOL vs. XVEST END Y At Port Hope, March 29: Won 64-54 On Saturday, March 29, T.C.S. defeated the West End Y in the last swimming meet of the year. Eight new pool records were made and one was tied which gives evidence of the high quality of the swimming displayed. In the Senior Class the W.E.Y. had a definite edge. For the visitors, Fraser was outstanding scoring three iirsts and breaking three pool records. However, our Juniors outclassed their opponents to win the meet. Drum- mond i was the best swimmer in these events scoring two firsts while breaking two records. The final outcome was in doubt until the last event, the diving, which T.C.S. won to give the School a 64-54 win.

At any rate they do tell us that the rain is so good for the grass which is such a comfort to us all. The trouble is that while the rain is busy at being good to the grass we are kept from putting it to the one use for which it is grown this term Cin our opinionj-that is to say, cricket. A new game has made its debut in the gym. as a re- sult of the bad weather. Floor Hockey has been most enthusiastically received as a between-the-seasons sport. The J .S. have had a league of six teams and the competi- tion has been fast and furious. A number of the players have already picked up a considerable amount of skill in this fast indoor game. Our sincere thanks are due to David Jellett and Mrs. D. A. Campbell who have recently presented a number of books to our shelves. We are always very grateful for gifts such as these as they help to maintain the number and quality of books in the Library which undergo a con- siderable amount of wear and tear during a school year. The J .S. is proud of the fact that six out of the eight members of the First Gym. Eight are former members of the J.S.

He passes through the field Where the brook runs blue, He tramples over mud Where forests once grew. He never stops to look At the beautiful countryside, But just goes on faster Like any horse you ride. -R. G. Church, Form IB 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD AT THE MINT It was nearing the end of the holidays when one morn- ing we arrived at the Mint in Ottawa. The appointed card was shown and we were led through the gates into the main building. The man who was to show us around was past middle age and had been working there since 1906. He told us several experiences of his life there. Once when they had a new weighing clerk, While weighing in the even- ing, he found there was some fraction of an ounce less than there should be. No one was allowed to leave the plant land it was also blamed on himj until he suggested they should Weigh again. This time it was all there. They are very, very strict! First we were taken to the melting room Where they melt the alloys for making medals. Then the alloyed fillets as they are called are thinned and made longer by being put through a pressing machine. Next the star shaped or round medals are cut, then imprinted and stamp- ed by a very heavy weight. CThe man who showed us around told us that when he first came, he had to imprint the pattern by handl. After this, they are dipped in chemicals, polished, and fitted with ribbon and other parts. It took fifteen miles of steel pin to hold the ribbon on the number of medals they had to make. Each one is about one and a half inches long. We were then shown where the coins of different value are made. Each coin represents a different feature of Canada. The cent, some maple leaves, the nickel, a Beaver, the dime, the Bluenose craft of the Maritimes, the quarter, the Canadian Elk, the fifty-cent piece, the Coat of Arms, and the silver dollar, the Canoe Men of Early Canada or the Parliament Buildings. We were shown how the coins are automatically weighed for three seconds each and dropped into either of three slots. The first slot for overweight, the second for normal coins, and the third for underweight coins. Even TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD TT some of the coins that weigh the correct amount are faulty. An employee takes a handful of coins and drops them on a steel cylinder until one sounds bad and he throws it back. It happened that my uncle knew the manager of the Mint so he, very kindly, took us to see the solid bricks of gold-refined and unrefined-that come from every mine in Canada except those with a priority on refining it them- selves. He showed us how the molten gold is poured into the cold water and immediately turns to small coral-like pieces of gold. When we were about to leave, the manager showed us how the designer of the Canadian Elk on the back of the quarter had also drawn a Squirrel and a Beaver hidden in it. So ended a very interesting morning at the Royal Canadian Mint. -J. H. Gill, Form III. THE RAID I lay in the sombre darkness and waited for the signal. My whole body was tensed, the blood rushed madly through my veins, and my heart stood still with expecta- tion. Then, at last, the signal! How often had I rehearsed this call yet now it seemed like the cry of death calling me to my doom. Slowly I answered back through cold, clammy lips and, gripping my weapon of destruction, I joined my com- panions. As we sneaked down the narrow passageway, every creak seemed to echo the warning voice of my heart which told me to turn back before it was too late. Every few steps we would pause to make sure that we were not fol- lowed. Then, up ahead we could make out the dim out- 78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD line of our destination. I stopped for a minute and quelled a. sudden urge to turn back. Slowly our leader raised his arm. And then with a cry the dorm raid had begun. -C. Taylor, Form IIAI. LA HACIENDA It was midnight when we wandered down some stairs and entered a square room dimly lit by' candles which flickered and occasionally sputtered out. In front of us was a long bar behind which were two Mexican boys Who, to our surprise, ducked behind the bar when We entered. To our right was a Mexican girl doing a tango to the accompaniment of some music played by some old men. Behind us a bull fight was being staged in which the matador was getting the Worst of it. Among the audience We could discern famous characters such as Dick Tracy, Blondie and Influence. At our left was a Mexican street with the usual old loiterers and junkmen hanging around. I got some coke and then we sat down at one of the corner tables from which We could view everything easily. The first thing that hit us was the smell of smoke which was floating around the ceiling in big Wreaths. When the murmur of the other couples in the room had died down we could hear the low tones of Hasta Manana coming from the opposite corner. The multi-coloured crepe paper draped over the door made a weird noise which added to the mystery and charm of this delightful room. After We had finished our coke, We dragged ourselves away to the outside world where a dance was still going on. For those of you who are not familiar with the Hacienda, it is a remarkable transformation of the Senior School cocoa room into a restaurant, night club, and sitting-out room, all rolled into one. --P.G.C.K., Form III. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 A CLOSE SHAVE One morning in late October, Charlie Bowin, a French- Canadian guide and I started on a bear hunting trip which was to last us all of one day. We were to go to one of Charlie's trapping cabins and get rid of a bear which had wrecked the place. We got to the spot after two hours paddling and stole up to a location near the cabin where tall grass was growing. There we sat down and waited. The day was fairly hot, and as we waited, swarms of mosquitoes came out and literally bit the hides off us. Still We resolved to wait for a while. We left the cabin late in the afternoon without a bear, but with plenty of pimples caused by those darling little insects. Night came. As Charlie and I were eating supper, Charlie suddenly yelled: I t'ink I hear a bear. We rushed outside, Charlie with the flashlight and I with the gun. The light played around in the darkness, and focussed on a furry object. There he is, Charlie said- Shoot him! I shot about three or four shells into that object, and Charlie started to laugh. Ho, ha, ha, ha, that's only the rug, he managed to say between outbursts of laughter. Suddenly he cried Look! a real one! I didn't know what he meant, until I heard a growl. A bear came lumbering out of the forest, straight at Charlie. Shoot him-quick! he gasped. I put the gun to my shoulder and pumped seven shells into the bear before he finally collapsed. Whew, said Charlie, that was a close shave. Let's go and see him. After an inspection, he said: Say, only one of the bullets hit 'im! My legs suddently went weak. What luck! -F.

OGDEN JONES T.C.S. people everywhere were deeply sorry to hear of the death on April 1 of David Ogden Jones, one of our Senior Old Boys. Dr. Jones was at T.C.S. from 1873 until 1880 and only last year he was recalling those days when he was guest of honour at the Old Boys' dinner in Toronto. Dr. Jones was a Prefect for two years, Captain of the Cricket Team, a member of the Choir, and he won the Bronze medal. Q2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD He studied medicine at Trinity College, Toronto, and later at the Royal College of Physicians in London. For sixty years he practiced medicine in Toronto and became one of the best known doctors in Ontario. In his early days he served as a Medical Officer in the Northwest Rebellion. Dr. Jones' two sons, Clarkson and Wallace, also came to T.C.S. The School sends its sympathy to all the members of Dr. Jones' family. HENRY MARTIN FOVVLDS We were shocked to hear of the death of Harry Fowlds on May 14. He had been showing a revolver to a friend and was accidentally shot in the head. Harry had been Warden of the United Counties of Durham and Northumberland and Reeve of Campbellford. He was married and has two young sons whom he hoped to send to T.C.S. The Juvenile Hockey Team of two years ago was most hospitably entertained by Harry and his wife after our game in Campbellford. The School sends its deep sym- pathy to Mrs. Fowlds and her family.

EDITORIALS The unmistakable signs of the end of term--trunks in the corridors, tickets in the bookroom, and all the other evidences of a changed atmosphere - which formerly brought such a feeling of release and excitement, are now perhaps viewed by some with a certain amount of sadness. Nor it is entirely due to the fact that sixth formers will not be leaving on Speech Day with the rest of the School, but will stay behind to write exams. And in spite of 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD numerous pleas and injunctions by many not to devote my final editorial to leaving C it's the same every year! J, I'm afraid that is what I am going to do. For as the days draw to a close and our long-awaited final departure from T.C.S. beco-mes more than an unattainable dream, we begin to see the School in its truer light. Just as it is said that when we are about to die our life passes before our eyes, so, I think, do we re-live all our experiences at T.C.S. when we fully realize that it is the end. The new-boy year co-mes first and what stands out in my mind is not so much the shoes I cleaned when fagging as the fun I had with the other new boys who were in the same boat. The comradeship of the new boys is one of the nicest experiences I have had at School. I don't think back on the Seniors and Prefects as monsters and bullies, but rather as challenges to my ingenuity to try to outwit them. QI should definitely not advise future new boys to try to sleep in a Senior's room, howeverll My second year memories consist of those glorious days when we neither bossed nor were bossed and had all the freedom we dreamed of in our new-boy year. The honest truth, however, is that it was not as much fun or as invigorating as the new-boy year. I firmly believe that it is the second years who to a large extent make or break the School. The new boys keep in line of necessity and the privileges are such because of their responsibility and ability to aid the School. The real back-bone of the School, however, is the second years who are neither at the top of the heap nor at the bottom. If they spend their days with a chip on their shoulder and an attitude that they're out to get for themselves the best they can. however they can, the morale of the School is broken. For the School can only run smoothly with the co-operation of everyone, and if a certain group is going to have none of the so-called school spirit, in spite of the best possible leaders there will not be a contented School. To a certain extent this inde- pendent feeling is natural and it is perfectly justifiable. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 It may, however, develop into a feeling of not being in any way part of the School and when this happens it is dan- gerous. As new boys they were definitely noticed, as second years they were forgotten. My advice is for these people to make an effort to participate in the many out- side branches of school activity. In this way they will not feel let down after their new-boy year, when they were the centre of attraction and good second years will be pro- duced and from these, good leadership will naturally de- velop. My most recent memories are those of a privilege and the main gist of them is that it is harder to have privileges than it is to be a new-boy. There are, naturally, many compensations which more than counteract any of the more difficult moments, but to think that all is a bed of roses is a bad misconception. Once again the feeling of friendship and even brotherhood is without equal and it is this along with the satisfaction I have experienced when I have in some way helped someone else that remains upper- most in my mind when I think of my final year at School. My reflections on the athletic side of my life here are unanimous-it has afforded me intense joy and ftm, and at the same time it has been invaluable training and ex- perience. All this along with a slight feeling of irony that the only Little Big Four championship team I should be a member of is a cricket team! As far as the Record itself is concerned I remember chiefly trying Cunsuccessfully most of the timej to beat a deadline, scurrying to get things written, corrected and typed, and working to produce editorials which would not be considered: the same old line. Such are my thoughts as I write this late at night with the School silent and sleeping. What value they may have I do not know. They are written to try to express my appreciation and gratitude to a School which has done so much for me in four years. There have, naturally, been moments of despair, but I can honestly say that these last 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD four years have been the happiest I have spent and my thariks go to masters and boys alike. May I wish those returning to the School and those who are just beginning the very best of luck in years to come. -J.B.F. ON ACQUIRING GUNS On the night of the leaving dinner, in Harry Hyde's absence, I was asked to make a speech as senior prefect of Brent House. I stood up, thumbed my napkin, started Humming , and forgot my introductory remarks. For about five minutes, CI think--I hope it was no longerlj the audience bravely bore some mumbling about life at T.C.S. and what it has done for the boys who are leaving this year. When I finally sat down, I was quite confused in my mind, and I have no doubt the audience was too. As inevitably happens I immediately thought of all the foolish things I had said, and of all the good things I should like to have said. As a matter of fact, I was quite convinced that with fifteen minutes of preparation I could have made a passable speech. Whether I could or not, I have some- thing important that I want very much to say to all the fel- lows who are leaving the School this year. Since I failed to say it there, I am writing it in the Record. This Way, perhaps, more of the boys will notice it. Last year my uncle had a man to man talk with me about aims in life, how to make my stay on earth worth- while. He talked to me about the GUNS that a boy needs to bring him success in life. Some of the GUNS which he advised me to acquire were reading, sports, good study habits, and friends. Having just finished my life here at T.C.S., I have been looking back, trying to think of the GUNS with which T.C.S. equips her boys. I shall speak only of the Senior School, as I never attended the Junior School. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 A few years ago we new old boys stood for the first time trembling at attention outside a prefect's room. We received our first Ubawling out for sloppy hair, dirty shoes, no tie-pin, coat unbuttoned. Very soon we acquired our first gun at T.C.S.-how to be neat. After a whole year we were accustomed to shining our shoes iand the prefect's!J every day, and generally keeping tidy. Next we learned the meaning of the word, RUN! , and some of us were informed, if not by word of mouth, then by dint of paddle, that we opened our mouths too Wide at times ! We soon acquired our second g1m -how to bear humility, how to be insignificant, how to take orders which we must certainly know how to before we can learn how to give them wisely. Then in our dormitories we found that we could not eat all by ourselves, the whole cake that Mother sent, that we could not be selfish or stingy. We soon acquired our third gun -how to get on with others, how to share our life with our fellows. By the end of our new- boy year, we had at least three new gums -neatness, humility, unselfishness. . In our second year we began to see that we were at T.C.S. for a stay, and that we might as well get into the life. We learned that the more we gave to the School of ourselves and of our enthusiasm, the more the School gave us. One of the interests the School offered us was the Record . Our School magazine is published six times a year, more issues per year than any other school magazine of its kind of which I know. Over thirty boys gained valuable experience in journalism through definite duties for the Record , while many others had a part in the Contributions section. Here was another gun -ex- perience in journalism. In dramatics and debating over fifty boys learned how to express themselves in pub1ic-an- other gun . In the Choir many of us learned the joy of good singing, and the whole congregation learned how to sing hymns! Sacristans took a special interest in the church life of our School. 0f sports it is hardly necessary 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to speak. Every boy at T.C.S. has unlimited opportunity for participation in sports. There are four rugby teams, two soccer teams, Oxford Cup cross-country racing, five hockey teams, two basketball teams, two swimming teams, three gym. teams, squash team, tennis, shooting, three cricket teams and a track team. What a powerful gun , good sportsmanship, team spirit, and athletics give us! In our last days at T.C.S. we acquire another great gun of which many people are not conscious. It is the ability to give orders. Every senior and prefect is learn- ing just as much as every new-boy, and his experience is just as important. He learns how to accept responsibility and leadership in a social community. This is half of the basic purpose of our new-boy system. The other half is of course the ability to take orders. The person who feels that learning how to give orders entails learning how to be conceited, has no conception of school life. I can say in all sincerity that it has often been far harder for me to learn how to give orders than to learn how to take them. When the first new-boy came in to be paddled this year, I had to hold my hands behind my back so that he would not see my hands trembling with nervousness. We have acquired then, healthy interests, and a healthy way of life through our days here at T.C.S. But we must remember that a gun is no good unless we use it. So let's not allow the guns this School has given us to become rusted, 1et's use them. I have talked about many material advantages we have acquired at T.C.S. There is, however, one that I have so far omitted to mention and I feel it is the greatest of all. This gun will help us wherever we go, whatever we dog it is Friends. We were fully aware of it after the Singing Off on the night before all the other boys went home. They gripped our hands and slapped our backs and shout- ed and sang For he's a jolly good fellow! Then we knew that we would never be alone. Our friends, our School, would always be with us in spirit, wishing us good luck, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 proud of our every worthy achievement, giving us some- thing great for which to strive. We shall never forget that night nor those friends, and we shall always link their memory with our dear old School and the happy days we have spent in these halls and on these fields ..... And friends are friends though they're far apart, And vision is stronger than sight, When your courage fails, you will gain fresh heart, At the thought of the boys tonight. We who are leaving T.C.S. this year can look back with satisfaction on our life here. We can realize that We are well equipped with many guns for the real battle of life that lies ahead. And there certainly are tremendous oppor- tunities ahead of us. The world to-day needs every honest, diligent citizen it can get, and no one is better equipped than we boys of T.C.S. to take a. full part in the Great Ad- venture. So good luck, good fellows of T.C.S., good luck wher- ever you may go, whatever you may do. Hills higher still we must climb with a Will, For the School on the Hill is watching . . .

Frank, Rector of the Church of the Holy Trinity in Toronto, spoke in Chapel. It was his second visit to the School in the last several years, and he recalled to us that on his previous visit he had given us a short history of his very famous church. This time he passed over its past history very rapidly, giving us a few facts about the erection and dedication of this church which had done so much good for thousands of Toronto people. Mr. Frank then Went on to tell us some- thing about the physical side of this historic building, and of the restoration which is now in progress. He concluded by telling us how interesting, and what a Wonderful experience it is to work With the poor and needy families of a community. We should like to thank the Rev. Frank for his very interesting sermon, and We hope that he may find time to visit us again in the very near future. X '. 'kg'-l,Q55K?q '1 . ' W V. -- R21 ff iff 'f ffLi'lE'f J ,fs 4- Q..

Hasted Dowker, Rector of Grace Church on the Hill in Toronto, preached the sermon at Evensong on Sunday, May 25. He chose for his text the 10th verse of the 3rd chapter of the first book of Samuel, Speak Lord, for Thy servant heareth . He then applied this text to his topic which was Our Vocation , and he pointed out that it is not so much the job we do, but the spirit in which we do it. We should think only of what we can put into a job, and in that way we get the most out of it. Mr. Dowker then went on to talk of the Ministry as an excellent example of a vocation in which these ideas prevail, and he stressed the great personal satisfaction which comes to those who have entered into the service of God. In conclusion, Mr. Dowker said that we must know what to do with our lives, and he asked us not to dismiss the Ministry as a vocation without some serious thinking. Trinity Slmday This year, for the first time in many years, the solemn and impressive memorial service, usually held around the Cross in front of the School, had to be cancelled because of rain, and was held in the Chapel instead. It is at this annual service that the members of the School pay their tribute to those Old Boys who died for their country in the course of three wars. The service followed the order of Evensong, and after the anthem, I vow to thee my country , had been sung by the Choir, the sermon was preached by the Rev. Arthur Smith, an Old Boy of the School C16-'20l, who is now the Rector of the Church of St. Thomas, Belleville. He spoke of his memories of the war, saying that the most outstanding thing he remembered was not the courage, so 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD much as the awareness of the things for which they were fighting, on the part of the common soldiers. He con- cluded by saying that on such a day of remembrance We should feel triumph and thankfulness, and not melancholy. The Headmaster then read out the names of all those Old Boys who had been killed in the war, and after a short silence the trumpeters outside the Chapel sounded the Last Post, followed by Reveille. The Choir The Choir sang the evening Service at St. John's, Port Hope, on May 11 and the Headmaster read the lesson. On May 18, the Choir visited St. Paul's Church, Perrytown, and sang the Service. The Chaplain assisted the Rector. The boys performed well on each occasion and many ex- pressions of appreciation were heard.

The reverse side is covered with names of well known Old Boys, accompanied with numerous pen and ink sketches. x The Wet Spring The patience -of the School was severely tried by the six weeks of rain and cold weather which was our dismal lot this spring. But all bore the trial nobly. The fields were covered with pools of water on many days, and parts of them became quagmires. With the beginning of the Upper School examinations on June 16, fine weather re- turned and lasted until the end of the month. We hope it will make its appearance earlier next year. Celebration of Cricket Victory After supper on June 11 a ceremony was revived which had not been known at T.C.S. since 1934 when we won the football championship. The old truck was suitably decor- ated and brought to Bethune House door. Then the team came out led by the Captain, Brewer, and Vice-Captain, Conyers. They took their places in the truck and the whole School escorted them on a short tour of the town. A call was made at Mr. Lewis's house and he was prevailed on to utter some words of wisdom laccompanied by cake and chocolates!! Then the crowd found their way to the orchard where a large bonfire was in readiness. Once it had been persuaded to burn, it made a fine sight. The boys sang numerous songs and dispersed to bed, doubly warmed with a glow of satisfaction as well as of the fire. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 Mr. Scott We were all sorry to learn of Mr. Scott's illness, and his absence leaves a big gap in the life of the School. In May he developed a severe pain in his back and leg and after consultation with a specialist he was ordered to take complete bed rest. A ward in the hospital was put at his disposal and after four weeks he was somewhat better. The specialist, however, put him into hospital in Toronto for further examination and decided not to operate. He re- turned to the School on June 27 and is now allowed to sit up and take some very mild exercise. We trust he will be his usual energetic self again by September. Gadet Inspection and Gym. Show The annual inspection of the T.C.S. Cadet Corps was held this year on Saturday, May 10. For the first time in three years the day was clear and bright and despite lack of practice due to rain and cold the whole show went off very well and much credit is due to Captain Batt, cadet instructor. Although there was a cold wind there was a very large crowd of visitors at the School. Military studies classes were inspected by Captain Graves, cadet training officer, at ten o'clock and the cere- monial drill commenced at 11.00. The salute was taken by the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey, C.H., one of Canada's most distinguished diplomats and formerly High Commis- sioner in London. He was accompanied in the inspecting party by Air Vice-Marshal W. A. Curtis, Brigadier J. G. Spragge C18-'24J, Col. M. P. Bogart, G.O.C. Ontario area, Group Captain H. C. Rutledge, officer commanding R.C. A.F. station, Trenton, and Capt. R. G. Graves. The cere- monial drill, under the command of W. J. Brewer was very well done and the corps is to be especially commended on the advance in review order. The House competition fol- lowed the ceremonial drill. After the cadet corps picture, 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Capt. Graves announced the result of the drill competition which he judged. Before giving his decision he pointed out that both Houses were excellent and that only two points separated the winner from the loser. After an anxious moment while he consulted his notes, Bethune was claimed the victor. A buffet lunch was held in the hall for visitors and members of the Senior School and then at 2.15 the show in the gym. got under way. Jarvis and McDowell are to be congratulated especially for their work on the high and parallel bars, while everyone deserves credit for the work put into it and the showing they gave which was well up to Mr. Batt's high standard. After a short introduction by the Headmaster, in which he outlined Mr. Massey's distinguished career, Mr. Massey made a very humorous and interesting speech, commending everyone for a very good show and wishing everyone the best of luck. He said that although a half holiday was traditional and he knew how much school- boys hated tradition, he himself was in favor of it and con- sequently, at the risk of incurring our anger, he asked the Headmaster for a half holiday. With three cheers for Mr. Massey and the singing of God Save the King , a most successful day came to a close. Aid to Britain For one week during the term, several large boxes were placed outside the Chapel into which the boys were asked to put any old clothing or shoes. The Headmaster told us that this was part of a nation-wide appeal for clothes to help the people of Britain who have suffered so much this last winter. We are glad to say that the response was excellent and that both boxes were more than filled. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Visit of Carl Schaefer We were all glad to see Mr. Carl Schaefer, a one time art master at the School, when he returned on May 30 to lecture on the paintings loaned to the School by the Toronto Art Gallery. The collection comprised original works by A. Y. Jackson, J. E. H. MacDonald, Emily Carr, Clarence Gagnon, F. H. Varley, Lawren Harris, J. W. Beatty and others well known. xHe spoke about each picture in turn, discussing its merits and defects, and giving a very comprehensive analysis of each one. After he finished his formal talk a number of the School's budding artists approached him and questioned him at some length. We are very grateful to Mr. Schaefer for coming and giving us some of his time and such an interesting lecture. We hope he will return again soon. Unveiling of Portrait of the Late Britton Osler, K.C. The ceremony of unveiling the portrait of Mr. Britton Osler, K.C., was held in the Hall on Sunday afternoon, June 1. This portrait was painted at the request of the Governing Body by the distinguished Canadian artist, Ken- neth Forbes. In his introductory remarks the Headmaster spoke as follows: This afternoon in this simple ceremony we are asking Mrs. Britton Osler to unveil the portrait of her husband, the late Britton Osler, K.C. Over a year ago the Govern- ing Body commissioned Mr. Kenneth Forbes, a distin- guished Canadian artist, to paint this portrait for Mrs. Osler, and she has, out of the kindness of her heart, given the picture to the School. Mr. Osler was a very distinguished Canadian citizen and the most generous benefactor this School has had. He was a man whose rectitude, high principles, thoughtfulness 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and constant desire to serve, made him a shining example to all who knew him. In the profession of Law he became a most eminent counsel, and his gifts were internationally admired and respected. His outstanding characteristic seemed to be the penetrating, calm clarity of his thought, and his complete fairness and justice. He was a descendent of a long line of forbears who were distinguished in the Church, Law and Medicine, and he inherited their feeling of responsibility to their neigh- boursg no worthy cause failed to receive his interest and support. Mr. Osler disliked publicity intensely and he never allowed his name to be mentioned in connection with any of his numerous benefactions. It was only after many years that more than a few people knew what he had done for- this School. He was not an Old Boy of T.C.S. but he gave us the privilege of having his three sons at the School, and after the first war he lent his active support to the plans for building a new Junior School as a memorial to the boys who were killed. When the fire of 1928 destroyed the Senior School, Mr. Osler at once threw himself into the work of planning for a new School at Port Hope, and Dr. Orchard told me that he could never have carried on had it not been for Mr. Osler's wonderful help in every detail. He gave countless hours to the difficult matter of preparing new plans and arranging for the School to carry on satisfactorily in Woodstock. He made most generous subscriptions to the Building Fund and he and Mrs. Osler gave us this beauti- ful Hall and the swimming pool. When the financial depression was keenly felt in this country, many of the promised subscriptions to the Build- ing Fund were cancelled and the School was left in a most precarious financial condition. We had borrowed a quar- ter of a million dollars from the bank at six per cent in- terest, and we had about the same amount out in bonds. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 Our enrolment had been reduced by more than half. The effect of this tremendous indebtedness and the greatly re- duced income was that we experienced five years of finan- cial peril and many times were very close to bankruptcy. Again Mr. Osler came to our rescue by offering to pay off half the bank debt if we could meet the balance. About seventy Old Boys and friends of the School realized Mr. Osler had given us a golden opportunity to clear off our debt and they subscribed S125,000 to equal Mr. Osler's magnificent gift. Later, most people who held our bonds turned them in and the School was saved. In helping the School, Mr. Osler's mind was on the coming generation. He was always anxious to assist boys and young men in any way possible and many prominent citizens of to-day were given their first chance by him. Since this new School was completed, over a thousand boys have benefited by Mr. and Mrs. Osler's great genero- sity, and we who believe in this type of education are con- fident that their lives have sound foundations largely be- cause of Mr. and Mrs. Osler's interest and unprecedented liberality. May this School, the Masters and Boys, ever be worthy of their benefactions to us. We are privileged indeed to have this portrait in our beautiful Hallg Mr. Osler lives in every part of this School and it can be very truly said of him, as it was of Sir Chris- topher Wren, Si monumentum requiris, circumspice -If you need a memorial, look around you. Mrs. Osler then unveiled the painting, which was much admired by everyone. She expressed her sincere thanks to the School, and spoke of her husband's great love for this School. Mr. G. B. Strathy, chairman of the Govern- ing Body, spoke further upon the generosity and kindliness of Britton Osler, and expressed his hope that the painting would be pleasing to Mrs. Osler. After a minute of silence, the blessing was given and everyone proceeded to the Chapel. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Leaving Dinner The leaving dinner this year was held on Saturday, June 21. All the boys still at the School and all members of the staff and their wives were invited. We regretted the absence of Brewer, Hyde and several others who had completed their examinations some days before and had left for home. After a most enjoyable dinner for which many thanks are due to Mrs. Wilkin and the kitchen staff, the Head- master proposed a toast to the King. Mr. Ketchum then introduced the Hon. R. C. Matthews, former cabinet minis- ter and present member of the Board of Governors. In introducing Mr. Matthews, the Headmaster men- tioned that he was a graduate of McMaster University and that he had gone on to do postgraduate Work at Harvard, where he wrote a Brief on The Preparation and Delivery of the Canadian Budget which has been widely consulted and referred to. Mr. Matthews founded the firm of R. C. Matthews 81 Company, Investment Bankers, and became President of the Liberal-Conservative Business Men's Clubg he was elected Member of Parliament for Toronto East in 1926, being re-elected in 1930. In 1933 Mr. Bennett made him Minister of National Revenue, which post he held until he retired in 1935. Mr. Matthews has been a generous and enthusiastic supporter of the game of cricket, and indeed fifty years ago he played for a Lindsay team against T.C.S. on our grounds. For many years he was President of the Toronto Cricket Club and he did much to enable the younger generation in Toronto to learn the game. In 1936 he took a Canadian team to England, at his own expense, and for six weeks they played some of the leading English XI's, winning much praise from cricketers in England and Canada. For many years Mr. Matthews has been a member of the Governing Body of this School and he has taken a deep TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 interest in every aspect of our welfare. A number of years ago, when we were on short commons financially, he made a generous donation to the School which he directed to be used in order to augment Masters' salaries, and in many other ways his constant support and wise counsel have been of tremendous assistance to the School. It is a great pleasure and privilege to have Mr. Matthews speak to the boys who are leaving us this year. Mr. Matthews spoke on what he considered the most important quality which a young man should possess- Industry , and he cited several examples of young men who became great successes just because they did a little more Work than they had to. The Headmaster then called on Campbell i, who spoke of the lasting friendships which are formed at a School like this. Lawson i then spoke of the great moral and physical benefits afforded by boarding school life. Both speeches were much appreciated. Conyers ii, Vice-Captain of Cricket, Williamson, Head Boy, and Mr. Bagley then spoke, the latter saying that we never really leave a place in which we have lived life to the full. The Headmaster then made some remarks about the history of the School and said the prime object of the School is the same to-day as it was 82 years ago, to de- velop strong young men who know the best way to their destinations. He read some passages from an early prospec- tus and then spoke about the career of Dr. Peabody, the great Headmaster of Groton School, Massachusetts, quot- ing the advice he used to give to his boys. After some School songs, the dinner came to an end. The Visit of the Governor-General On Tuesday, May 27, His Excellency the Governor- General and Lady Alexander paid the School an unofficial 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD visit. Lord Alexander had been staying with Mr. Vincent Massey and he very kindly brought their Excellencies to the School. The fall-in was sounded at 10.00 and the Cadet Corps was ready to be inspected when the vice-regal party arrived at 10.15. The Headmaster and Mrs. Ketchum met Viscount and Lady Alexander and showed them the dining hall where a group of modern paintings was on exhibit. The party then proceeded to the playing fields where, after a royal salute, His Excellency inspected the Corps. The squadron then marched past in column of route. His Excellency now gave a short speech in which he praised the drill very highly mentioning especially the steadiness on parade. The School gave three cheers for their Excellencies Viscount and Lady Alexander and the Headmaster granted a holiday for the rest of the day at the request of His Excellency. Choir and Play Dinner On Friday evening, May 30, a dinner was held in the hall for all members of the choir, the cast of the play, and the debating teams. After a very good meal, for which Mrs. Wilkin and her staff deserve much credit, the Head- master made a short speech. He praised the choir for the consistently fine work they had done all year, and thanked them for all the time that they had devoted to choir work. He concluded by recalling several amusing and interesting incidents which had happened in previous years. In the absence of Mr. Cohu, Tom Lawson thanked the Headmaster on behalf of the choir for his words of praise. Then, in his capacity as President of the Dramatic Society, he said a few words about their work in the past and their hopes for the future. He then presented Mr. Dale with a gift from all the members of the society, in recognition of all the hard work he had put into making their pro- ductions successful. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 Mr. Dale then said a few words of thanks, and was followed by Harry Hyde who spoke on behalf of the de- baters. After one or two more short speeches by various members of the School, a very successful dinner was brought to a close. Record Staff Dinner A dinner in honour of those boys who had worked on the Record staff during the past year was held in the hall on Friday, June 6. Present were all members of the Record staff, several masters, and Mr. Lapp, who has been print- ing the Record for twenty-nine years. After a few re- marks by the Headmaster, Jack French, this year's able Editor-in-Chief, made a short speech, and then presented Mr. Lapp with a bronze statue, in recognition of all he had done for the Record over the years. While thanking the staff for their gift, Mr. Lapp told some amusing stories which originated in the early days of the printing of the Record. The Headmaster then brought to an end the formal speech making, and for the next hour a very interesting and, we hope, profitable round-table discussion was held on methods of improving the publication of the magazine. Visites Interprovinciales In May the School was honoured by a visit from Mr. Paul Marquis, organizer of the private bureau known as Visites Interprovincialesn. He spoke for a few minutes after lunch on the work of his bureau in organizing visits of English boys and girls to French families and vice-versa. We all know what important work this is and we hope that in future many boys from this School will take ad- vantage of this opportunity. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SPEECH DAY June 14, 1947 Despite threatening skies, the annual presentation of athletic prizes was held on the terrace on Friday evening, June 13, the day before Speech Day. After Mrs. Totten- ham and Mrs. Ketchum had presented the boys with their trophies, the many guests present, plus the entire School, retired to the Hall where a more or less impromptu, but very successful concert was held. The singing of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus was the highlight of the evening, and the Choir, taking full advantage of the better acoustics of the Hall, sang it beautifully. Sharing the honours with the Choir was a solo by Charles Campbell, Head Prefect in 1942-43, whose fine tenor voice will long be remembered. The entire programme was as follows:- 1 . .

The Choir God Save The King Later the traditional singing off of the boys who were not returning took place. The following morning the closing ceremonies began with a service in the Chapel. As usual, there were many more guests than could possibly have been seated in the Chapel, but unfortunately, it was raining very hard, and so, instead of gathering on the lawns outside the Chapel, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 many visitors were able to listen to the service through loud-speakers installed in the Hall. Following this very beautiful service, the visitors proceeded to the gymnasium where Dr. Sidney Smith, President of the University of Toronto gave a short address, and the Headmaster made his annual report. After the speeches, the Academic and Special prizes were presented by Dr. Smith, and a special presentation of a silver tray was made by the Board of Governors to Mr. P. H. Lewis in recognition of his twenty- five years of service with the School. After the Blessing by the Provost of Trinity College, the visitors retired to the Junior and Senior School dining halls, where buffet lunches were served. Address by Dr. Smith In his address to the leaving class, Dr. Sidney Smith, President of the University of Toronto, referred to the scores of Old Boys of T.C.S. whom he had met in the Mari- times and in the West whose praises of their old School had helped to enhance its reputation. No speech on such an occasion, he went on to say, could be as eloquent as the testimony of the sixty Old Boys whose names were listed on the School's Honour Roll commemorating our dead in the recent World war. They encompass us as a cloud of Witnesses , he continued, and their sacrifice will be a perpetual reminder that we must pick up their chalice and seek to fulfil their ideals in our own lives . Dr. Smith stressed the need for a point of inner re- ference based on the training of school and church as a permanent guide in later life. It is an historical fact, he pointed out, that conquest of the seas came late in human development owing to the fact that sailors had only the land and stars as their guide. With the invention of the compass, the ships had a point of inner reference and broke the bondage that tied them closely to the shore. 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD We need a point of inner reference , he continued. You must never think that you have become so smart that you can disregard the morals and high standards of the school and church. With such an inner reference you can chart your course and set forth confidently to your port of high hopes . Dr. Smith Warned us that the danger in the World today was due not to man's mechanics but to his morals. He illustrated this point by a Latin quotation which he translated not all that is allowed is honest . The strength of a democracy, he emphasized, is revealed not by tangible laws but by the unenforceable laws which proceed from one's inner being and depend upon courage, sym- pathy, tolerance and chivalry. In conclusion, he cited the example set by Athenian youth Whose high standard of citizenship still serves as an inspiration to us today: We shall never bring disgrace to this our city, by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever desert our suffering comrades in the ranks. We will fight for the ideals and sacred things of the city, both alone and with manyg we will revere and obey the city's laws and do our best to incite a like respect and reverence in those above us who are prone to annul or set them at naught, we will strive unceasingly to quicken the public's sense of civic duty. Thus in all these ways, we will trans- mit this city not only not less, but greater, better, and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us . . 1.l..1 i. HEADMASTEIVS REPORT Mr. Chairman, Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: In this spring of most unpredictable and unseasonable weather, I do think it is good of you to turn out in such numbers for our eighty-second annual Speech Day. Speech Days and Prize Days occur in great numbers at this time of yearg they seem to spread like a spring rash, accom- panied by mild fever. Some one suggested once that it TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 would be doing parents a service if all the Ontario schools would combine and hold a joint Prize Day in Maple Leaf Gardens, Headmistresses and Headmasters handing over to Mr. Foster Hewitt, who would certainly make the pro- ceedings much more entertaining than they usually are. But tradition seems to keep us to the well worn path and here We are again, and very glad are all the members of the School to see our visitors. We Welcome particularly to-day our speaker, Dr. Sid- ney Smith, President of the University of Toronto, and Mrs. Smith. Dr. Smith is a most distinguished figure in the Held of higher education in this country and it is in- deed a privilege to have him with us. Most of us, I fancy, knew him first as President of the University of Manitoba and a leader in the political thought of the Dominion. But before he went to Manitoba in 1934 he had been an assistant professor in the famous Law School of Dalhousie, Lecturer at the Osgoode Hall Law School and then Dean of Dalhousie. In 1944 the University of Toronto won him away from Manitoba and he succeeded Dr. Cody as Presi- dent in 1945. It is safe to say that no President of any University in this country has ever had to deal with prob- lems of such magnitude as have confronted Dr. Smith at Toronto during these two years. And we all know how amazingly well he has solved them. His administrative skill results from a deep understanding of educational mat- ters coupled with almost superhuman patience, good humour and a tenacious physical energy. Knotty and complicated questions are resolved miraculously before an attack of such skill, capacity, and vigour. There have been nearly seventeen thousand students at Toronto during this past year, three times the normal pre-war number, a second university was opened at Ajax, and we can faintly imagine the multitudinous problems which have confronted the President day by day. In addition to all his University work at Manitoba and Toronto, President Smith found time to be President of 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Canadian Association for Adult Education, Chairman of the Canadian Youth Commission, President of the Na- tional Film Society, and President of the National Con- ference of Canadian Universities. In the first World War he served with the artillery and later in the Royal Flying Corps. I happen to know that it was extremely difficult for Dr. Smith to squeeze out a few spare hours to come to our Speech Day, but he has gallantly and generously done so, and no words of mine can properly express our apprecia- tion to him, we feel he has paid a very real tribute to this School and we shall ever be grateful to him. We meet to-day under the shadow of the death of our beloved Archbishop Owen. For forty-seven years he served God and his Church, and his sudden death was a personal blow to the thousands who knew him and had a deep affec- tion for him. For the past fourteen years he visited this School at least once a year and he was kind enough to say that he looked forward to his visits and remembered them afterwards with pleasure. Only last November we gave a dinner in the Hall in honour of him and Mrs. Owen and those who heard his address will never forget the intimate details he gave of his career. Though he occupied such a high post and was internationally admired, he never lost his simplicity and true humility, and he loved to meet the rank and file of the Church, going even into the remote and more inaccessible parts of our country up to the last days of his life. Ten days before he died he spent a whole day at this School, administering the rite of Holy Con- firmation in the evening, and he spoke of his joy at see- ing such a fine group of boys. He was a saintly man, truly a man of God, and his wonderful Christian Spirit has been an inspiration to countless thousands of many religious persuasions. A few days ago one of our Masters, Mr. Arthur White died at his home in Montreal. He had been a valued mem- ber of our Modern Language staff since January, 1945, but BELOW THE OLD MILL Picture by D. Y. Bogue LITTLE BIG FOUR CHAMPIONSHIP CRICKET TEAM Front Row:-J. B. French, D. McDonough, A. M. Barnes, Back Row: W. N. Conyers fVice-Captj, W. Brewer fCapt.J, R. H. Gaunt G. A. Payne, A. C. B.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 last March he suffered a sudden heart attack. Mr. White was a most conscientious and talented teacher and in his quiet Way he had a real affection for the boys and was deeply interested in their Welfare. We shall miss him more than we can say. Since September our School day has begun at 8.30 a.m. and ended at 9.30 p.m. A story is told of a Union Organizer meeting a boarding school master on the street. For no apparent reason he stopped him and said, Mate, what do you do for a living? I am a schoolmastern, was the re- ply. How long do you work? Oh, from about eight in the morning until ten at night. How many days a week? Usually every day, including Sunday. Are you crazy ? was the reply, Haven't you got a Union '? Per- haps the Masters and boys at T.C.S. feel that they should form a Union. But of course there are compensations though it is true that the boarding school day is a very long one with heavy responsibilities and constant interrup- tions for the Masters. For three months this year the School day began at 7 a.m. for a number of boys who were not doing so well in their work, but they seemed to survive and most of them found the early study very beneficial. The energy of the young male of the species is constantly amazing, especially as one gets older. We have had our share of troubles, illness having seriously affected four members of our staff: Mr. Taylor had to leave in October to convalesce, Mr. Scott, our Senior housemaster, has been on his back for nearly four weeks with disc trouble, I have mentioned Mr. White's fatal ill- ness, and I had to go into hospital in October for a disc operation. I am most grateful to Mr. Morris, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Scott and all the members of the staff for carrying on so well and assuming extra duties during the absence of those who were ill. Mr. Luscombe and Mr. Kirby have been of great help in the emergency this term. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Despite these interruptions our class work seems to have gone along well and we are hoping that our Upper School candidates will bring credit to themselves and their teachers in the examinations which begin on Monday. Last year's results you will see in the Prize List. Though it was the general opinion that the papers were marked more strictly last summer, our Upper School boys had a higher measure of success than in 1945 and as a School we were in the top group. Over eighty-four percent of the papers attempted were passed, and over fifty-four percent were Worthy of honours. That is a good record, but a better one is the number of Scholarships won over the years. Our boys have been awarded an average of five Scholarships a year for the past thirteen years, or a total of sixty-five University Scholarships. That is an exceptionally high number for a School which sends on an average about twenty boys a year to Universities. This past year there have been some two hundred T.C.S. boys at twenty-six dif- ferent Universities in Canada, England and the United States. Never before, of course, have we had so many boys at so many different colleges. One of our recent boys, J. A. Paterson of Montreal, has been selected as a Rhodes Scholar from the Province of Quebec, and we are very proud of him. During recent years the Naval College has set the only College entrance examination written by boys from all the provinces of Canada. For these examinations we have entered seventeen candidates and all have been successful. Last year a T.C.S. boy, David Malloch, of Hamilton, was placed second in these examinations and the personal inter- view among forty-seven successful candidates. For the third year we have required boys seeking ad- mission to the Senior School to write our entrance examina- tions. Boys from thirty-seven schools and three countries wrote them this year and though only a very few did so badly that we had to persuade them we did not feel we could help them next year, yet the general standard of TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 the papers seemed to reveal evidence that the youngsters in the elementary schools are not being as well trained in the fundamentals of Mathematics and English. This is a tendency many people have been aware of for a long time and I am confident the report of the Royal Commission on education will deal effectively with it. There are, of course, numerous reasons for the training in our elementary schools not being as effective as it used to be in the first part of this century. Among them are lack of first class teachers, overcrowding of classes, the lure of enticing books, movies and magazines, often extremely harmful to the mental and moral development or youngsters, the radio and motor cars which often take up too much time, and the parents who often do not take up enough time, crowding of the curriculum and the lack of healthy athletic programmes for all children. But I cannot go into a dis- cussion of this problem now. Suffice it to say that I con- sider it a most serious matter and I believe most strongly that we as parents and as a country must take more pains, real pains with our children, and give them better care in their formative years. I mention this matter here because I do not believe the teachers of High School age boys and girls can possibly undertake successfully the task of turn- ing out sound Canadian citizens unless more help is given to them in the earlier years, and unless they have the con- stant co-operation of parents and authorities. We badly need in this country men and women of high intellectual attainments coupled with an understanding of their fellow men and the character and personality to deal successfully with the great problems which arise in this rather con- fused world. There must be no levelling down process in our schools, an aristocracy of intelligence and character is needed to lead us if we are ever to achieve that world wide spirit of trust and co-operation between peoples for which so many of our young men died. That is why I believe in the vital importance of the schoolmastering profession, but it must be given more attention by our present business 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and public leaders if the profession is to attract the men of high calibre and integrity which it needs, men who can inspire youth to great deeds. We are fortunate indeed to have such a capable staff at T.C.S. I Wish I had time to name each one and thank him publicly for all he has done in the Senior School and in the Junior School. Suffice it to say that they have pulled together throughout the year and all have taken real pains to help the boys under their care in class and out of classy though we are all conscious that We never accomplish everything We would Wish, yet We think We can see that most of our lads are developing extremely Well. Last autumn Mr. Humble rejoined us after an absence of nearly three years in the army, and Mr. Dening came to us from England, having served six years in the Intel- ligence Corps of the British Army. Both these men have been of tremendous help to us this year. Mr. Warner is leaving us to return to High School Work and Mr. Hadley Armstrong is returning to the Physical Training staff after a year of study in that field at McGill. I am very glad to be able to announce the appointment of Mr. Philip Bishop to the Modern Language department. Mr Bishop served in the Royal Navy during the War but for fourteen years before the War he taught modern languages in English schools, for ten years as a Senior instructor at the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, to Which College he returned in 1946. Mr. Bishop had his early schooling in France and then attended Whitgift School, Croydon, going on to study in Paris, Toulouse, Bonn and Santander. He is entirely bilingual, and is talented in painting, music, and modelling, as Well as being an expert meteorologist. He will be a Welcome addition to our staff and perhaps he will be able to warn us in future so that we can escape such appalling Weather as we have experienced this spring by making a mass migration to Bermuda. Mr. Alan Hett is also joining the staff next September on loan for one year from the Royal Grammar School, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 High Wycombe, England. Mr. Hett was educated at Up- pingham and Oriel College, Oxford. He has taught at Up- pingham and Stowe, at the University of Hong Kong and the Government College in Lahore. He served in the Fly- ing Corps in the first World War and again in the R.A.F. in the past war. We hope he will enjoy his year here as much as we know we shall enjoy having him. I must say a word of welcome to Miss Ryan, the nurse in the Senior School, and to Mrs. Stephenson, the nurse- matron in the Junior School. They have both rendered vital assistance to the School. May I also say how much we always owe to the men and women not usually in the forefront with the boys who work so faithfully to keep the wheels of school life turning efficiently. I wish I could describe the many details of our life which have made this past year a very successful one but I must confine myself to an outline of them only. Mr. Hodgetts has been in charge of our athletic activities and we have had very good teams in Football, Soccer, Hockey, Basketball, Gym., Squash, Swimming, Track, Cricket. We have never had so many boys indulging in such a variety of sport and it has undoubtedly helped their morale and physical development and taught them valuable lessons of fair play. Mr. Hodgetts, Mr. Bagley, Mr. Batt, Mr. Humble, Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Lewis were in charge of the first teams and many other' masters assisted. The Football Team came within a game of winning the Little Big Four Championship and the School was thrilled on Wednesday when the Cricket XI. scored their Hrst untied victory over our three rival schools in twenty-nine years. We have been on top more often but we were tied with one or two other schools or one school was not participating as was the case in 1943. Bill Brewer, our Captain, Conyers, Vice- Captain, Mr. Lewis, the coach, and all the members of the team deserve the utmost credit for the Way they kept up their morale and courage and skill in many very sticky spots. Brewer's ninety-nine runs against St. Andrew's was 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD a brilliant inningsg one of his hits was the longest any of us have seen, about one hundred and thirty yards, and in one over he hit two sixes, two fours and ran three, making a total of twenty-three runs in five consecutive balls-an amazing feat. It must have been a deep disappointment for him to be given out l.b.w. when he was within one run of the cricketer's dream of making a century, but he took it in true cricketing spirit and merely said he though the umpire was right. In addition, he has bowled extremely well, and he captained his team with patience, skill and good judgment. Conyers' bowling was excellent all season and Barnes helped out particularly well at bat and as a bowler at some critical moments. The Cricket Team of 1947 will long be remembered. The Cadet Corps has kept up its very high standard. His Excellency the Governor-General, and Lady Alexander, visited us on May 27 and Viscount Alexander inspected the Corps. He expressed himself as being much impressed by the drill and deportment of the boys. The Right Hon. Vincent Massey took the salute at our annual Inspection on May 10 and he also spoke highly of the drill and the Gym. work in the afternoon. Last year we came second in the Empire in the Imperial Challenge Shield Shooting Competition and first in Canada for the fifth consecutive year. The band won the trophy for being the best Cadet band in this military district. Time will not permit me to give any details of the boys' work in Music, in Art, in Carpentry or to speak about the Choir and their excellent performances under Mr. Cohu, about the plays, especially the School Play The Queen's Husband so ably produced by Mr. Dale, about debates, concerts, lectures, about boxing, gym. work, military studies. So many boys have taken part in these activities and so many others have assisted as instructors or coaches. The Record has celebrated its fiftieth anniversary and French and his staff ably guided by Mr. Humble, have TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD published five extremely good numbers. Some of the original writing has, we feel, set a new high standard. The War Memorial Fund is steadily increasing. The subscriptions received now total S110,000 and the Commit- tee in charge hope to increase this sum to at least 8,150,000 before the autumn. Mr. Charles Burns and his assistants deserve the utmost credit for all the work they are doing to make this appeal a thorough success, and we can never properly express our gratitude for so many most liberal contributions. Building costs are too high now to allow us to think of constructing the Chapel even if we had the amount needed, but they are expected to come down very soon and we hope to see the first sod turned perhaps before next Speech Day. The Architects' drawing of the pro- posed Chapel is outside the present Chapel and you will see some small flags marking the site just west of the Mem- orial Cross. When this Chapel is built we shall have some very much needed space in the present Chapel for a library and reading rooms, and the basement of the new Chapel may be used as a projection room and little theatre. On Trinity Sunday, Mrs. Osler unveiled a portrait of the late Mr. Britton Osler in the Hall. It was painted by Mr. Kenneth Forbes and we feel highly privileged to have it. Mr. Osler was our most generous benefactor and never can any T.C.S. person forget how he helped to rebuild the School after the fire of 1928 and then saved us from in- solvency during the Bnancial depression. Schools like T.C.S. could not survive in this country were it not for the generous help of men and women who believe in them. We have no endowments, we are not helped by any government, and the fees we charge barely pay the running costs so that when we need new buildings or equipment we have to appeal to our friends. T.C.S. has been most fortunate indeed in having had so many tried and true friends over the years, and I hope they have not been tried too much. 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The new Memorial Tuck was opened officially on May 3 by Mr. and Mrs. Blair Russel who gave it to us in memory of their gallant son Hugh, who was killed in action in the Air Force. The building has been much admired and already it has proved its worth in so many ways. I know I am speaking for the boys when I say that every day they are thankful to Mr. and Mrs. Russel for their generosity to us. Mrs. Pangman gave us a new hard tennis court, and it has been used constantly. With the Jellett and Osborne courts we now have three hard courts, and without them the boys would have had no real tennis this year when the wet weather made grass courts impossible. We are extremely grateful to Mrs. Pangman. Many other kind friends have helped us during the year, notably the Ladies' Guilds of Toronto and Montreal, Mrs. Gundy and Mrs. R. C. Matthews who have given generous bursaries. To all our friends we can only say thank you, but I can assure them the boys appreciate what has been done for them and I believe they are worthy of such interest and help. During this past year every space in the buildings has been occupied, including the overflow quarters, and we have been hoping to reduce our numbers from 270 to 250 next autumn, thus eliminating the necessity for temporary quarters. All the expected vacancies were taken by the beginning of January and since then we have had to refuse applicants almost every day. It now seems as if we shall have another 27 0 boys in the School next September. Doubtless there will be a falling off before long but I must tell parents that over half the vacancies for September, 1948, have already been taken and there' are boys entered for others years up to 1956. It is a great thing to have such faith in the future and that is the note I wish to stress at the conclusion of this report. There is far too much doubt, disillusion, uncertainty, confusion, suspicion, despair in people's minds. Rome was not built in a day and we were all far too optimistic two or three years ago when THE RT. HON. VINCENT MASSEY, C.H INSPECTS THE CADET CORPS ,W Zi f , X. v!,,: 3. aff: an I'- 'fi 2 f V,,,,,.4 ,Ms -gm Z4-Q TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 we thought our dreams of the new world would come true without a long period of negotiation, discussion and really intelligent and patient understanding, planning, and plain hard work. Mr. A. J. Toynbee says that civilizations fall because of their failure to meet new challenges success- fully. We certainly have the ability to meet the challenge of this age if we keep our heads and our hearts. To our Senior boys who have done so much for the School and who are now leaving us, may I say that you must always have faith in yourselves and faith in some- thing outside yourselves. That means that you must have worthy ideals and objectives and you must never let any setbacks discourage you. A man without faith Grows old before his years His world a Wraith For whom the end nears Like a winter mist When the sun is cold In the cold west. His children about him Are strangers, unknown, The love that begot them Cooled, and gone. If he get riches They turn to rust And he can do nothing With a handful of dust. Life's miracle fails him, Life's rapture, 1ife's breathg He has done with the living, He has forestalled death. . There are too many men in these days without Faith and I do hope you will never join that company. Keep 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD faith with yourself, with your families and friends, with the ideals of peace and freedom and fair play to all men everywhere. We feel there is no finer youth anywhere than the youth of Canada and miracles can be performed by them if they keep faith. Particularly well do we know the young men of this School who are now leaving us for new fields of endeavour, it has been a privilege to work with them and we shall never forget them. May they go from strength to strength, strong in their Faith, and may every good fortune accompany them.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 . -s A Sv XX Q95 9 -t ' H MR. GRACE Mr. W. G. Grace left Aldenham School in Hertford- shire With his Wife for a two year leave of absence in 1914 after serving there for sixteen years as a cricket coach. He came to Canada and the two years have now stretched to thirty-three, thirty-one of which have been spent at T.C.S. Did , as he has been affectionately nicknamed, has, dur- ing those years, coached the cricket team and been the head groundsman. Indeed, it is to him that we owe all of the beautiful terraces and playing fields that we now have. The things he has accomplished since he arrived at T.C.S. are well-known and will be recounted presently. It was slightly more difficult, however, to find out about Mr. Grace's past history. He was very reluctant to say any- thing about it, but after much persuasion we managed to get at least an outline of his colorful and interesting earlier life. He was born at Redbourn in Hertfordshire the refuses to disclose the datel and 'it was there he was first intro- duced to cricket. Encouraged by his father he developed an early love of the game and played it every chance he got. His Hrst cricket was played on the Redbourn com- mon and there, when only a boy of fourteen, he played on teams with experienced men. He was a member of the Redbourn team which won the county challenge cup in 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 1888. On leaving Redbourn he attended school in nearby Harpingham, and there his love of the game and skill at it both grew. Even then he coached at every opportunity, spending his holidays and spare time guiding younger boys who later became famous cricketers. He attended the College of Agriculture for two years in Wiltshire and in 1898 went to Aldenham School as coach. Mr. Grace played on so many teams that he cannot remember all of them. So keen was his enthusiasm that he would play for any team that needed him or wanted him. One of his fondest memories is a game in which he played for a team at Hazelmere in Surrey. In that game he bowled eighteen overs, thirteen of which were maidens, and he got six wickets for eight runs. He still has the ball with which he accomplished this feat. He played one season for St. Albans Club, which was a stepping stone to the county team and in that year he bowled one hundred and thirty-six overs and got thirty-five wickets. For three years when he was first at Aldenham he played county cricket for Hertfordshire, which gives one an idea of the calibre of his play. Mr. Grace was also a very fine bats- man. The highest score he can recall is one hundred and eight not out, which he made one year while playing at Tubbocks. He has on two other occasions made his cen- tury, with 101 and 107 runs. Mr. Grace could not be coaxed to give any more in- formation, but what he has divulged is enough to give evidence of his excellent record. When he left Aldenham in 1914 he came to Canada and went to St. Andrew's, which was then located in Rose- dale. He stayed there for two years and then left with offers from both Ridley and T.C.S. He chose T.C.S., he said, because it was a church school which more resembled the English public schools. And so he arrived in April, 1916, and has been here ever since. Mr. Grace's first love has always been cricket, but he has done almost everything else since he has been here. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 For years he took care of the Schoo1's three hockey rinks, sometimes staying up all night to get them ready for the next day's hockey. He also took charge of the School farm for a short time. His main claim to fame, however, is the work he has done on the playing fields. When he came they were not level, had no real grass to speak of, and were indeed more like some farm fields left free of crops. He first began levelling a place for the J.S. to play cricket across the road from the hockey rinks. He then went to work on the Bigside table, levelling, sowing grass, fertilizing, mowing and getting it into the shape that it has been for many years. From there he went to all the other Helds including the J .S. fields, the terraces and the Bethune House terrace. Indeed, there is no part of the School grounds that has not been tended and improved by Mr. Grace. To him must go most of the credit for such a beau- tiful campus. He is still to be seen edging around the bushes and paths, and many of the less cricket-minded boys know him best for his insistence that the numerous please signs be obeyed. The Headmaster was on the cricket team the first year Mr. Grace coached it, in 1916. That year they lost to St. Andrew's, a team containing eight players who had also been coached by Mr. Grace the year before. Al- though we have many times beaten Ridley, only twice since Mr. Grace came has the School won a Little Big Four championship in cricket. That was in 1918 when the team was captained by E. S. Clarke, and in 1943, the year Sid Lambert and Ken Scott were captain and vice-captain. When asked which boys he remembered most he replied that there have been so many and so many good cricketers that he couldn't possibly name them all. Mr. Grace re- calls one amusing incident in a game when he was umpire. When our bowler was consistently bowling short balls Mr. Grace became suspicious and measured the pitch to find it four feet too long. The pitch was changed and the game went on. What he does remember very well, however, is 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the great help that Old Boys such as Dyce Saunders, Percy Henderson and Norman Seagram used to give to the teams. They would come down as often as they could and coach the boys a great deal. They were invaluable, says Mr. Grace. Until 1923, when Mr. Lewis also helped with the cricket team, Mr. Grace was the only coach. Since then they have worked together, with Mr. Grace not only helping with the coaching, but also taking care of the cricket pitch, always having it in top condition. He also spends a great deal of time in his workshop oiling and re- pairing bats and mending other equipment. Throughout the years Mr. Grace has remained the same-sincere and serious about his cricket. He believes the only Way to play it is to take it seriously and try to learn and improve all the time. His love of the game is evidenced in the way that his face lights up when he reminisces about past games and players. He is very un- assuming and doesn't like to interfere with the boys, but is always willing to help them if they Want it. His work on the cricket table and with the equipment cannot be over-emphasized. The School owes a great deal to Mr. Grace for his many varied accomplishments in the last thirty-one years but the greatest of all his contributions has been in the field he knows and loves best-cricket. -J . B. French, Form VIA. THE CADET CORPS AND PHYSICAL TRAINING These two activities, the full value of which we some- times don't realize, have been carried on at the School since its founding in 1865. For the past twenty-six years the School Cadet Corps has maintained a remarkably high standard. In its various branches it has held many Provincial and Dominion re- cords, and in Musketry was twice first in the Empire. The Corps has, during this time, received by guard of honour all the Governors-General of Canada, except the late Lord TRDNITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 Tweedsmuir, and has been much praised by them and by some of the highest ranking soldiers in the country. In the Christmas Term not much cadet work is done except for the usual Physical Training during gym. periods, one or two church parades, and the various new boys' competitions in gym., cross-country, running and boxing. The Lent Term is the time of indoor cadet work. Nearly two hundreds rounds of ammunition are used each afternoon in the rifle range for the House competitions, Dominion of Canada Rifle Association competitions and the Imperial Challenge Shield. The School won this in 1943 and 1944, when they were competing against over a hundred and fifty schools and clubs throughout the Em- pire. This shoot has not been held for the past two years but since 1940 the School has always been either first or second in Canada. In the past ten years boys in the Corps have won more than live Dominion silver medals and four times as many bronze medals. During this term also, boys are to be seen in the Gym. grappling with horizontal and parallel bars and soaring over the box horse. The first Gym. Eight has Won the Ontario Junior Championship twice and in 1926 became Canadian champions. In 1938, a T.C.S. boy became Cana- dian Junior All-Round Gym. Champion. In the past few years the standard of gym. work has progressed rapidly, in fact, the second team of today is expected to perform the exercises the first team did fifteen years ago. This year the standard has been unusually high and the School hopes to enter a team in the Canadian championships next fall. Towards the end of the Lent term the boxing ring appears in the gym. and the School boxing championships are held. At one time the boxing ring was built on apple barrels filled with sand and cinders but while at Wood- stock the School obtained a more permanent ring which is still in very good condition and a great asset to the School. 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD During the short and busy Trinity Term comes the climax of the Cadet Corps year. Every evening after sup- per for three or. four weeks Brent and Bethune Houses turn out and practice squad drill and rifle exercises. The Junior School polishes up their Club-Swinging Exercises and Brain Stimulating Games. The horizontal bar, parallel bar and horse teams finish off the year's work as does the Physical Training Class. Then comes the final test, In- spection Day, with ceremonial and house drill in the morning and the various gym. displays in the afternoon. Thus ends the Cadet Corps work for the year and but a few short weeks are left before final examinations. Looking back over the Cadet Corps history brings to mind many interesting and outstanding events: the un- veiling of the War Memorial by Gen. Sir A. Macdonnellg the guard of honour for Admiral Sims when he opened our Junior Schoolg the affiliation of the Corps with the 110th Squadron, R.C.A.F., in October, 19363 the gradual changes in uniform from the original roll-neck sweater and leather belt around the waist to the present smart air force blueg the days when the gym. changing rooms doubled as a rifle range and little holes were often found in the gym. kit hanging on each wallg the inspection taken by Major General McBrien, who reported the Corps as the miniature footguards of Canada. At intervals throughout the year, the Physical Train- ing department records the weight, height and chest measurements of a cadet and reports showing the change are periodically sent to parents. Track and Field Sports once fell under the heading of Physical Training and were coached by the Physical Training instructor. Teams were often entered in Ontario meets and in 1934 a T.C.S. boy set two provincial records which still remain unbroken. Another important aspect of Cadet Corps work is known as Military Studies. Boys in the third, fourth and fifth forms are allotted in their time-tables Military Studies periods during which regular Army subjects are studied: TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 Bren gun, Signalling, Advanced Signalling, First Aid, Map Reading, Hand Grenade and Life Saving. All new boys are required to obtain their Intermediate Royal Life Sav- ing Society Certificates before they can use the pool and the Corps' excellent record in that field has more than once been mentioned by the Society. Cadets are awarded chevrons for passing various Military Studies subjects and these can be Worn on the left sleeve of the air cadet uni- form. The Band, composed of some thirty trumpeters, drum- mers and a bass drummer, plays a major part in the Corps' marching exercises. Their performance has always been highly praised by inspecting officers and many mili- tary district awards have been won by them in recent years. The value of all this work need not be stressed. Not only does it teach discipline but it teaches co-ordination and helps quicken the mind. Our War records have a deep significance. Exactly fifty Old Boys saw service in the South African War and two were killed. During World War I five hundred and seventy-five Old Boys served in various branches of the Allied Forces and one hundred and twenty-two were killed or died of wounds. In World War II over 750 Old Boys volunteered to serve their country and sixty-one made the supreme sacrifice. In all these wars T.C.S. Old Boys were known to be courageous and trustworthy soldiers, maintaining throughout an enviable record. A larger proportion of honours was won by T.C.S. boys than by those from any other school in the Empire. Many instructors have headed the Corps since the first-a Waterloo veteran named Captain Goodvvin-but we owe most of our present records and high standards to the instructor who has for the past twenty-six years, de- voted his undying efforts to the Work of the Corps-Capt. S. J. Batt. -J. A. Powell, Form VIA. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD THE KITCHENS When boys come to the School on the hill for three or four years, there are few of them who do not claim to know every corner of the School. Yet there are few of them who can boast of a trip through the kitchens, the heart, or more appropriately, the stomach of our society. It is this very privilege which was given to me several days ago. The T.C.S. kitchens are small compared to their coun- terparts in similar institutions of a comparable size. Yet lack of quantity or in this case, size, does not sacrifice quality, for any of us who have eaten at other schools will agree that Mrs. Wilkin and her capable staff serve better meals here than at any other school. But this article is not written to debate the merits of our kitchens, which are numerous, but merely to tell you about them. As all of us know there are two doors in the dining hall leading into the pantry. From one of these doors at 7.40 a.m., 1 p.m., and 6 p.m. flows an endless stream of food. From this door emerges the energy which wins a football game, the strength which lifts Charlie Panet up to the high bar, the brain nourishment that gives William- son that constant 8076. From this door five waitresses are constantly re- appearing carrying the ammunition with which we fight the battle of life. Four of the girls are .Japanese, for- merly living on western farms, whom we are very lucky to have. Mrs Wilkin says of them that they are the best girls she have ever had. Then, of course, there is Doreen who has been with the School many years, and last but by all means not least, that old stand-by, Mrs. McCann. Were it not for Mrs. McCann, and Mrs. Wilkin we would have had to wash dishes and serve in the kitchen during the war as so many other schools had to do. We all know Mrs. McCann and we all appreciate the work she does. Her winning smile and that sense of humour that 1 i . - 1 w 4 ' 1 5 -... .. SPORTS DAY CHAMPIONS Lcfl to Right:-Senior: W. M. Cox.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 allows Dalton to get away with two buns at break have endeared her to us. Since we have discussed the outer bastions of the kitchen patrol, let us move next through the doors and in- to the servery or pantry. It is not a big room, but it is compact, bright, and spotless. Perhaps the gleam of the long serving table will first catch your eye. Here are deep containers in which vegetables, soup and potatoes can be kept piping hot by hot-Water pipes. Over in an alcove is the huge dish-washing machine which washes our plates so fast that by the time we have eaten our bacon the cereal dishes are cleaned and dried.Over in another corner are two great cauldrons from which pour the coffee and tea. When I asked how much coffee and tea the School drank I was told that in the morning four gallons of coffee, and at night eight gallons of tea, are consumed. At first I was rather surprised at such a large amount, but when I heard that meat was ordered by the cwt., I was even more astonished. In the servery are the toasters which run for half an hour before breakfast begins. The toasters have to make about three hundred pieces of toast every morn- ing. In this room are the huge vats containing the milk brought in by the milkman every morning. Six to eight cans, each holding eight gallons, are used each day. We drink enough milk to fill the swimming pool in six months! Four more Japanese girls are kept busy in the servery all mealtime. Over in one corner are the soup cookers which are operated by one of the girls. Added to this well-train- ed staff are two local women who come up every day to help clean things up. Moving on now we pass through another door into the kitchen. Two huge ovens appear before us in which roasts and baked pies are so skilfully prepared by Ted, our head chef. We are particularly lucky in having Ted, for he does all our carving as well as cooking. The way he handles a knife is something to watch, and his cooking is some- thing to which our meals bear testimony. Of course the 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD dessert and salad cook is that old friend, Bertha. In the kitchen there are several huge tables for carving and for cleaning vegetables, and just off the kitchen is the refri- gerator room which holds meat and vegetables of all kinds, keeping them fresh until they are ready to be served. Just off the kitchen is Mrs. Wilkin's tiny office, and here is the brain cell from which the domestic staff take their orders. Meals are carefully checked a week or two in advance, calorie and vitamin standards are kept high, and orders for food are sent out. Most of our vegetables are sent all the way from Hamilton by a firm of Old Boys. The handling of meals, the running of the staff, and the appearance of the dining hall are all under the direction of Mrs. Wilkin who has been with us for four years, and the efficient Way in which each of these responsibilities is handled, betokens Mrs. Wilkin's unresting perseverance in seeing things rim properly. Not only does she have the meals in the hall to prepare, but she also has some fifty-five privileges for Whom to prepare trays at night, the masters' trays, the ladies dining room, and the domestic dining room. She has had to do all this under the burden of Wartime ration- ing and higher Wages which decreased her food budget greatly. Thus with higher costs and with the difficulty of getting food to-day, it is with flying colours that she has come through. Her kindness to everyone has Won the appreciation not only of the staff but of the boys as Well. Moving on, We descend a flight of stairs and are shown through the storerooms and the domestic dining room. Here are huge supplies of grapefruit and soup ready to be brought up at a moment's notice by an elevator which carries the supplies up from trucks. Dovsm one more floor we descend to find more store- rooms as well as a refrigerator where the milk and other things are kept cool. At last we reach the end of our tour and, rising to the kitchen level, enter the dining hall once more, leaving behind us the sound of the Washing machine and the potato peeler.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SONNET ON LISZT'S SECOND HUNGARIAN RHAPSODY The music comes upon the shoulders of the mountains, The unseen power of life's own laughing fountains, In a land I saw and lost under Autumn's sky, ' When many years ago I heard a raven cry. It tells of sadness born by man for ages, S0 long that it has turned as light as laughter- As a heart of Love and Peace that hate outrages. The ivy-covered walls of thought are broken, Behind walk lonely ghosts of thoughts unspoken- Wan ghosts whose presence could have conquered kings, Free as the naked wind on its wild, eternal wings. But who shall dare to look and forever know? If there can be no God, then to Man-Woe! -C. M. Taylor, Form VA. AS IIE SPAKE BY THE MOUTH I wandered with my thoughts for many miles, Thoughts of despair, despondency and pain, And found no comfort. Everywhere the trees And grasses seemed to be my truest friends, And none cared how, or why, or where I went, My enemies the flowers, who smiled in joy And seemed to mock my hopeless search for peace. I reached to pluck a blossom from a branch, One smallest pleasure no one could deny, But memory sent a teasing breeze, as chill And cutting as a sabre's steel, and swung The branch above my head, and out of reach, The breeze ran laughing off among the leaves. Till eve I walked, and as the searing sun Flamed low upon the land, and lit the torch That billowed foam of gold and crimson light, 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD I came upon a hill where nothing grew. The clouds had banked themselves below the sun, Gray as a stormy sea bursts on a rock, The sun slipped low, and suddenly I saw The spume begin to flash with silver fire. A slash of glory, blinding white it gleamed, Dividing clear from cloud, along the edge. Below, the dullness, and the sky above Clothed in the pink and ochre cloak of love. I turned with lighter heart, and saw the trees, The winds, the flowers, friends, not enemies! -R. D. Butterfield, Form VIA. . ..T. TI-IIE ATOM AND THE SOVEREIGN STATE By Bernard L. Welland The Atom and the Sovereign State Were walking hand in hand, They wept like anything to see Such thickly settled land: If this were only cleared away, They said, It would be grand! If seven planes with seven bombs Swept it for half a year Do you suppose, the Atom said, That we could get it clear? Let's try it, said the Sovereign State, Whom do we have to fear? O Homo, come and play with us! The Atom did beseech. A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk, Forget Bikini Beach, We cannot do with more than two, CTO give a bomb to eachJ. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD And two young Homos hurried up Both eager for the treat: Their coats were torn, their faces worn Their shoes were far from neat- A.nd this was so, because, you know They'd been close to defeat. Four other Homos followed them And yet another four, And thick and fast they came at last And more, and more, and more- All marching through their cities vast They poured from every door. The Atom and the Sovereign State Talked on, both con and pro, And then they shouted loud and long, You dirty So-and-So g While all the little Homos stood And trembled in a row. The time has passed, the Atom said, To talk of all these things: Of blocs-world states-Sz Union Now- Of dictators-and kings- And why the peace was never kept- And whether pigs have wings. But wait a bit, the Homos cried, Before we have a warg For some of us are quite fatigued From two we had before. So sorry, said the Sovereign State, But you've become a bore. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD A load of bombs, the Atom said, Is what We chiefly need, Some poison gas and germs besides Are very good indeed- Now, if you're ready, Homos dear, The mop-up Will proceed. i I l 1 It seems a shame, the Atom said, 5 To play them such a trick, F After they made me what I am And made me kinda quick! The Sovereign State said nothing but Just drop another 'stick'. I Weep for them, the Atom said: I deeply sympathize. With sobs and tears he atomized Homos of every size, Holding his Pocket-handkerchief Before his streaming eyes. i O Homo, cried the Sovereign State, I You've had a pleasant run! Shall we begin from scratch again ? But answer came there none- And this was scarcely odd, because They'd killed off every one. -Courtesy of Freedom 8: Union - -7. 1 . .. va .,:xXf5Zy. .f H WVELL XDVHJ. El!-LL i 9 4 2 THE RECORD STAFF TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 DI KET Five things come to mind in looking back on the 1947 Bigside Cricket season. The weather was worse than usual. One of the wettest Springs on record, with very little warm sunshine, gave almost no chance to play on a hard wicket, and also restricted the number of days for practice. In the U.C.C. game in Toronto it was necessary to use a mat. This was the first time in very many years that we have not had a turf Wicket in an inter-school game. Secondly we recall the very poor cricket material that was available. The handles of most of the bats broke, balls went out of shape, and pads were small and poorly made, and all items expensive. One is tempted to con- sider the possibility of steel handles and aluminum blades for bats? Those doubtful catches behind the stumps would be more audible to the umpire. Then there was the stand made by Gaunt and Brewer in the U.C.C. game, when we had only a small score to make and our early batsmen were out for next to nothing. The Ridley game was memorable for the very good fielding, and the dispatch of nine Ridley batsmen for eighteen runs. It looked as if we would have them all out for less than twenty, but, as is often the Way in cricket. our fielding and bowling slackened a little, and their last pair made a gallant effort and raised the total to nearly 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD fifty. Even this small score seemed to frighten some of our earlier batters and we only made the necessary runs very slowly and for spectators, painfully. Barnes and Payne were most valuable in preventing a collapse. The highlight of the S.A.C. game was the excellent batting of Brewer who made ninety-nine in about an hour and a half. The day was fine and sunny and the ground much harder than before, and it was a pleasure to see Brewer take advantage of this in no uncertain fashion. Only rarely does one see a boy on one of our school teams play enough to develop the art of hitting the ball hard and straight back towards the bowler, or for a six over the bowler's head. Brewer hit several over the boundary in this way. To do it the bowling must be attacked and a straight bat used. The stroke is the basis of good cric- ket and is quite distinct from so-called slugging . The shot requires good footwork and Brewer is exceedingly quick on his feet. Since this game was played on our ground, it is to be hoped that some of the boys who will be returning will be able to copy this example of batting next year. fNote: No slugging J. For the secoond year Conyers had the best bowling average. Brewer was good at times, and Barnes improved considerably. The fielding was rather erratic, but generally good. Everyone tried very hard. The most consistent and re- liable were Brewer, Gaunt and Wells. -P.H.L. LITTLE BIG FOUR RESULTS SINCE 1916 1916-Ford Strathy, Capt.-Won U.C.C. 58-43, Draw Rid- ley, Lost S.A.C. 45-75. 1917-E. S.

YORKSHIRE At Port Hope. May 24: Lost 75-69 The First Eleven lost a close match to the Yorkshire Cricket Club on May 24. Oddly enough, it was a member of Littleside, Thompson v, who was playing for Yorkshire because they were short-handed, who scored the winning run. The School batted Hrst and led by Brewer, who scored twenty-one runs, knocked up sixty-nine runs all out. York- shire went to bat and with Perkins scoring twenty-six not out passed the Schoo1's total. 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SCHOOL vs. KAPPA ALPHA FRATERNITY At T.C.S., May 28: Drawn, 60-21 for 1 Wicket Despite an outstanding innings of thirty-nine by Cas- sels, the Kaps were held to the low score of sixty due to good bowling of Gaunt and Conyers The School opened their batting but due to heavy rain it was decided to draw stumps shortly after the first wicket had fallen for twenty- one runs.

B , At Port Hope, May 31: Won 69-57 In a poor exhibition of cricket, the School edged out a weak Toronto Cricket Club team by 69-57. T.C.S. batted first and Wells was top scorer with twenty runs. The cricket club went to bat and had bad luck when Turnbull, the only man who showed any batting skill on either side, was given out at twenty-two. The game was won on the last ball of the last over when Brewer made a spectacular fielding play to retire Wilson and give the School its first victory of the season. .li1 SCHOOL VS. U.C.C. The School won their opening Little Big Four match at the U.C.C. grounds, defeating the College 73-57. Upper Canada opened the batting on a soft wicket but after a splendid start by Colley, who scored twenty-four, the Col- lege lost nine wickets for only fifty-two runs by lunch time. After lunch the final wicket fell cheaply to Conyers, who took five wickets for sixteen, whilst Brewer had four for fourteen. Trinity's opening batsmen failed to make a TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 stand and after four wickets had fallen for only three runs, a partnership by Brewer and Gaunt carried the score to fifty when Brewer was caught for twenty-nine. Two more Wickets fell before Gaunt hit the winning four. The three remaining T.C.S. wickets fell rapidly, among them Gaunt's, who had batted extremely Well for his twenty-seven. For U.C.C. Mercer with four for twenty-four and Cooper with three for twenty-one were the best bowlers. U.C.C.

At Toronto Cricket Club, June 7: Wofn 69-46 In the second Little Big Four cricket match T.C.S. de- feated B.R.C. by a score of 69 to 46. Ridley batted first and lost nine wickets for nineteen runs. But the last two Ridley batters, VVhittemore and Penny, made a strong stand, and with nine and eighteen runs respectively ran the B.R.C. total up to forty-six all out. The School's innings at first looked very disheartening, and at one point T.C.S. had lost four wickets for twelve runs. But slowly the School caught up, and after a time of terrific suspense, the forty-seventh and winning run was made by Hyde. A second innings was started, but was soon declared and the match won. Conyers and Barnes were the best bowlers for the School with five for nineteen and three for eleven, respectively. Hutson bowled well for the losers with six for thirty-one runs. The fielding by both sides was ex- cellent. Payne and Hyde each with thirteen runs led the School, while Penny was top scorer for B.R.C. T.C.S. Innings Wells, c. and b.

At T.C.S., June 11: Won 160-101 Led by brilliant batting by Brewer, T.C.S. won their first Little Big Four Cricket Championship in twenty-nine years by defeating St. Andrew's College in their final game of the series to make three straight victories. Trinity batted first and lost two wickets for three runs before a stand by Brewer and Conyers took the score to seventy-five. Brewer continued to bat brilliantly and at the lunch interval had scored ninety-five of the School's one hundred and twenty-four rims for the loss of five wic- kets. Shortly after lunch, however, he was given out leg before wicket for ninety-nine. The final School batsmen quickly lost their wickets and the School was out for one hundred and sixty. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Hersh and Chipman started off well for S.A.C. and when Chipman was bowled Browne began to hit vigorously giving S.A.C. seventy for three at tea. After the interval the School's bowling improved and after Browne had fallen for fifty-two the final wickets fell rapidly and the side was out for one hundred and one. For S.A.C. Kelly and Lindsay with four for thirty- four and three for seventeen respectively were the best bowlers while Conyers with four for twenty-five was best for Trinity. T.C.S. Innings Wells, c. Heit, b.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD '77 MIDDLESIDE CRICKET ' Under the skilful guidance of Mr. Gwynne-Timothy, Middleside produced one of the best teams it has had in several years. In their first game they defeated Lakefield 33-26, and the following week they beat the Oshawa C.C. 44 to 53. In their second game with Oshawa, however, they were soundly beaten 57-29. They also lost the re- turn game with Lakefield by the score of 70-44. The team, however, finished off the season by winning the last two games, beating U.C.C. by 6 wickets and 35 runs, and S.A.C. 98-66 in a very exciting game. Highlights of the season were the excellent batting of Brodeur i and Paterson i, and the bowling of Kingman. These three boys were largely responsible for the team's success. T.C.S.-Kingman, Brodeur i, Wismer, Paterson i, Newcomb, Deverall, VVood, McPherson, Dignam, Drynan, Rickaby, McIntyre, Conyers i, Hall, Luke, MacKenzie, Hughes i, Goering, Hughes ii, Rogers ii. LITTLESIDE CRICKET This year Littleside cricket enjoyed a full schedule of games in which they performed admirably. Much credit for their showing should go to Mr. Bagley who did a fine job of teaching the basic ideas of cricket to boys who, we hope, are future Bigside material. In their first game they beat U.C.C. 72-55, due mainly to the playing of Paterson iii and Cox ii. The return game was rained out after the School had made 53 for the loss of six wickets. The following week they eked out a very close victory over S.A.C., 23 and 16 to 21 and 16. Cox ii with a total of 12 wickets for 13 runs, and Cooper 11 with 6 for 19 were the best for the School. The return game was even closer, the School being beaten 38-37 despite a very nice 25 by Cooper The team then went on to win their one game against Lakefield 59-44, due mainly to the 78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD fine bowling of Harris who took 5 wickets for 16 runs. In their last game of the year, an exhibition against the Junior School First Team, Littleside was soundly beaten 57 for the loss of five wickets to seventeen. This loss was due mainly to the excellent bowling of Ketchum i, who took five Littleside wickets for five runs.

Very good weather, and a large number of contestants made the event a very successful one. Rain earlier in the week made the track heavy and consequently the times for most of the track events were poorer than usual. In the field events, however, five new records were established. Bethune House was the winner in the House standings with 196 points, 70 points ahead of the Brent House team. W. M. Cox captured the senior aggregate title by winning the 100, 220, 440, the mile, and placing second in the 120 yd. hurdles, and gaining two thirds in field events, he com- piled a total of twenty-five points. G. B. Taylor won the intermediate aggregate with nineteen points, and T. A. Wright took the Junior with twenty-six points. Records were set in the intermediate 440 by Taylor i, junior 440 by Taylor ii, junior 880 by Taylor ii, intermediate shot put by Thompson i, senior and intermediate discus both by Thompson i, pole vault by Lawson i, and the javelin by Bruce.

It will in truth be but a record of the term's activi- ties in the field of Sports. Our thanks to Mr. R. P. Jellett for a gift of two steel engravings depicting the death of General Wolfe and of General Montgomery. Our congratulations to the J.S. First XI and their coach, Jim Barber, on an unbeaten season. Jim did an excellent job of coaching and was also a first-rate grounds- man. The J.S. pitches have never been in better shape fin spite of the weatherl. We are most grateful to McDowell and Jarvis of the First Gym. Eight for all the trouble they took in coaching our Gym. team. Without their willing and unselfish assistance, it would not have been possible to turn out a team of the high calibre shown this year. The School picnic was again held at Sylvan Glen on one of our rather rare fine days. It was definitely a suc- cess and many thanks go to Mrs. Crowe and her staff for the wonderful food they provided. PICTURE LOAN SOCIETY Through the kindness and interest of Mrs. Fraser Coats, mother of a former Junior School boy, we have been privileged this year to have an exhibit of pictures from the Picture Loan Society hanging in the J .S. The follow- ing pictures were exhibited: Path on Mount Royal by Louis Muhlstock. Gulls by David Milne. View from Stuart's Rock - Muskoka by Paraskeva Clark. River Boat by Fritz Brandtner. Boy with Flute by Jack Nichols. Popcorn Stand by N. A. Winter. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 85 Mr. Douglas Duncan, who is in charge of the Society, very kindly came to the School and explained the pictures to the boys. After this a vote was taken by secret ballot and Louis Muhlstock's Path on Mount Royal came first by a fairly large majority. Mrs. Coats has very kindly presented the Junior School with this lovely Muhlstock and we are extremelv grateful to her. The picture is now hanging in the Junior School Library and is a noteworthy addition to the School. Our very sincere thanks to Mrs. Coats for this magnificent gift. i1i, SPORTS DAY The Junior School Sports Day events were very keenly contested this year with Rigby House winning the Inter- House Trophy. In order to increase the interest of all boys in the School, a new system of points was introduced for the House Trophy. Each winner of a preliminary heat was awarded one point and a point was also given to each boy reaching a final. The first three in the finals were awarded 3, 2, 1 points. Five points were awarded to the winning Senior Relay Team and three points to the Junior Relay Team. Two features of Sports Day were the Junior High Jump Record of four feet three inches set by Wevill and McCullagh, and Hoffmann's ninety-two yard cricket ball throw. The winner of the Esmonde Clarke Cup for the grand aggregate was won by Hoffmann with twenty-two points, with Southam i a close second with twenty points. Hoff- mann also won the Cassels Cup for the 100 yds. and 220 yds. Full results will be found elsewhere in this issue. 86 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD GYM. COMPETITION The Gym.

Ketchum Vice-Captain .A...............................................................o I. B. Bruce In spite of the very Wet season, cricket has never proved more popular than this year. The School was again divided into three sides with every boy taking part. Bigside under Jim Barber turned out the lst and 2nd XI's and Middleside under Mr. Burns and Mr. Morris pro- duced the 3rd XI. Littleside guided by Mr. Dennys and Mr. Snelgrove played a series of gruelling intra-mural games and showed up a great deal of future cricket talent. Barber did a great deal to improve the batting and fielding this year. Much of the team's success stemmed from these two points. Colours The following have been awarded First Team Cricket colours:-P.

Martin C09- '11J, H. A. R. Martin C20-'26J and S. L. B. Martin C22- '28l. Throughout her life Miss Martin Worked steadfastly for the Church and its people. She instituted the giving of the Bronze Medal in the Junior School to the boy who is voted by his fellows to be most distinguished for his 105 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD qualities of leadership and character. Because of Miss Martin's great admiration for the work and character of the late Rev. H. F. Hamilton C89-'94J she named this medal the Hamilton Bronze Medal and for many years she donated it. The School sends its deep sympathy to Miss Martin's family. A. E. WHITE The School was deeply sorry to hear of the death of Mr. White on June 9. In March he suffered a heart attack while walking back to the School from town. The doctor put him to bed in the School hospital, where he remained for four weeks before being transferred to the town hos- pital. There was no improvement in his condition and as he was most anxious to return to his home in Montreal, Mrs. White took him there at the end of May. The specia- lists found his condition as serious as the School doctor had reported and he passed away on June 9. Mr. White had taught all his life. He was a graduate of McMaster and a fine athlete in his school and university days. For many years he was a French Specialist on the staff of the Westmount Schools but he retired in 1944. After a year in business he joined the T.C.S. staff in January, 1945, to fill a vacancy caused by the war. Mr. White was a painstaking teacher, meticulous in every detail. Learning was a serious undertaking to him and he had no patience with slackers. His pupils respected him and admired his skill in teaching them. He will be deeply missed by his colleagues and the boys of the School. The funeral was held on June 12 in Montreal. C. F. Harrington C26-'30J, President of the Montreal Branch of the Old Boys' Association, represented the School, and wreaths were sent by the boys and Masters. Two days before he died, Mr. White had received a lovely bunch of flowers from the boys and he sent word TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 107 to say how deeply he appreciated their kind thought of him. DR. T. S. FARNCOMB Dr. T. S. Farncomb, who died on May 17, in Trenton, was a member of the well known Newcastle family of Farncombs. His brother, Dr. Alfred Farncomb, attended the School from 1873 until 1877. Two nephews, F. C. and J. R., sons of the Rev. John Farncomb, were at the School from 1899 until 1901. In the summer of that year both boys were tragically drowned in Lake Ontario at New- castle. Both Dr. T. S. Farncomb and Dr. Alfred Farncomb attended the old Trinity Medical School in Toronto. T. S. Farncomb Won the Dickson Scholarship from T.C.S. For many years he practised in Trenton and his death re- moves the last member of the T.C.S. Farncombs.
