EDITORIAL The first topic of conversation at the beginning of term seems always to revolve around the holidays-what We did and the fun we had. Judging from the talk that developed this year, the summer of leisure is disappearing, and its place is being taken by a phenomenon known as the summer job . This year, possibly more than ever, a large majority of us took up some sort of Work, and T.C.S. boys were engaged in many varied fields, from forest ranging 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to teaching car driving. Recently boys have begun to realize the value of using the summer holidays to real ad- vantage, for the summer job is as much a part of a boy's education as his academic Work. For one thing, it helps the boy to find out the type of work he really likes and is suited for. Taking a variety of jobs each summer gives one a chance to discover his real preferences under the test of first-hand experience. If a boy has already chosen a vocation, he can take a line of work connected With it. A budding chemical engineer might try Working in the labs of a chemical refining plant, and thus, when he finally embarks upon his career, he will have some practical experience behind him. Then too, after leaving the relatively isolated life at school, We learn how the other half lives. When we work on the farm, we learn for the first time how the farmer thinks, feels and acts. For the first time We un-- derstand him. When we Work in a factory, we see how the industrial worker lives from day to day. Thus, by taking different jobs each summer, We get a broader view of modern society, with its many complications. We also learn to get along with people in different walks of life, besides those of our own little group. This, one might add, is an essential to world harmony. Then too, there is the fact that such work, besides being a source of handy cash, helps to provide a fund for expenses such as education. These days, Working one's way through college is the accepted thing to do. It also helps us realize the value of dollars and cents, measured out in terms of hours sweated out in a hot steaming hay field, or a boiling factory. We find that money takes a long time to earn but a very short time to spend. Besides its re- munerative value, a job such as forest ranging or farming is a healthy outdoor life and sends us back to school hale and healthy. and in good condition for football! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 Judging by discussions on the subject, the boys of T.C.S. have found a real value in summer jobs, and perhaps that is Why some expressed regret at returning to the more exacting life at School. -R.L.XY. As we go to press this year's football team, captained by Stu Bruce, has made history for itself by defeating Rid- ley in Toronto for the first time in thirteen years. It was a thrilling game with the score first in favour of one team and then the other, and the pace and skill of the two teams amazed the hundreds of spectators. The final score was 22-18, Ridley scoring on forward passes and T.C.S. on drives through the line and around the end. As We had de- feated S.A.C. 17-11 the week before the championship game will be played against U.C.C. at Port Hope. The School congratulates a fine football team. . .

This subject, he said, was vital to-day as man seems to have it within his power to exterminate the human race. Religious people believe man is capable of perfection, and that must be our objective. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things will be added unto you. Our Chapel Services, with opportunities for medita- tion, prayer. and hearing the word of God, are guides to the Kingdom of God. Mr. Ketchum mentioned the meetings of the United Nations and Canada's part in trying to perfect a system of world government. Our hope lies in the Wisdom and un- derstanding of individual men. It is supremely important it if y. l 4 1 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 that we have a definite standard of conduct and a guiding light in our lives. The Battle of God Sunday, September 21 On the second Sunday of the Michaelmas term Mr. Bagley gave his first sermon of the School year. He com- menced by speaking of that event which will remain in everlasting glory, the Battle of Britain. The Chaplain im- pressed on us two misconceptions concerning the end to- wards which those brave lads were fighting. All of us had heard at one time or another that the Allies were fighting the battle of God against the forces of evil in order to save Christianity from extermination. But as the sermon pro- gressed we soon realized that even though the physical battle had been won, the conquest for the Church has yet to be attained, and it seems that the element of fear imbued in the world is a powerful retarding influence. Carrying on, Mr. Bagley explained a second misconception, that of the parallel drawn between Christianity and Democracy when actually the Church holds no political views and the Grace of God is world Wide. Convincing us that we must pray for God's help in hastening the Church's victory, Mr. Bagley closed a most impressive sermon. 1 Christian Citizenship Sunday, September 28 Mr. Hett began his sermon with a quotation from The Life Line by Phyllis Bottome. What makes the German people so formidable is that they worship thor- oughly. It is well, too, for us all to remember that al- though what the Germans worship is wholly evil, they have learned how to worship it! What we worship is goodness itself, but alas, We have not yet learned how to worship goodness in spirit and truth. He went on to say that 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Baptism and Confirmation do not make a Christian. Fur- thermore, We should not lose faith because We think that the age of miracles is past, for it is not. To illustrate this point, he told a story about the former Bishop of Lin- coln Who has been called to a sick man's bed. The man con- fessed that he had once meant to rob the Bishop by send- ing him to a cottage along a path which would take him through the woods. But he had not carried out the rob- bery because someone had joined the priest as he Went through, both on his Way there and back. The bishop claims to have been alone. Is this not a miracle? Mr. Hett then asked all Christians to help others and he made three suggestions which We should bear in mind. One was to remember the difference between right and Wrong, another, to learn more about Christianity and the last was not to jeer at the good things in life. A He told us that later We would become members of the Christian society and that this would help us to become good citizens of our country. Harvest Sunday October 5 On Harvest Sunday in a Well decorated chapel, the Rev. C. H. Boulden, rector of St. Mark's Church in Port Hope, paid his first visit of the year to the School. The former Housemaster of our Junior School com- menced his sermon by saying there is no greater joy than seeing the fruits of one's own labour, and proceeded to cite examples of harvesters in England. These hard-Working men of the fields accomplish something truly tangible, and, when an opportunity comes for them to attend church ser- vices. they do so with sincere enjoyment and gratitude to God. Continuing with an apt quotation from Proverbs, Mr. Boulden pointed out that Those that get something for nothing get all that they pay for , and illustrated this TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 with the story of a heroic missionary who sacrificed his 'life to the Japanese in order to continue his work. Nature and the Bible October 12 On October 12, Mr. Bagley preached, taking as his theme the beauty and the different aspects of nature, which fitted in most appropriately with the lovely autumn We are enjoying. The Chaplain pointed out the different attitudes to- wards nature to be found in the Old and New Testaments, the former treating it as something awesome and majestic, the latter portraying the simple view, a mystery of love rather than fear. This change was Wrought by Jesus, and God, who had previously been Jehovah, the all-powerful, Was now thought to possess the gentle majesty of a father. After numerous examples of the close contact and love of Jesus for nature, Mr Bagley suggested that by obedience to God's Will We might reach the same high level. He then closed with the statement Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God-even in the lilies of the field . St. Mark's Church One Hundred and Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Seryices October 12 As members of the Parish, an invitation was extended to the School Choir to provide the music for the closing service of the Anniversary celebrations on Simday, October 12. This invitation Was gladly accepted and the Whole Choir With Mr. Cohn at the organ, one choir boy on crutches Knot in the processionj and another brought from his sick bed in the hospital, took part. The service was read and the responses intoned by the School chaplain, the lessons being read by the Head- 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD master and the Housemaster of Brent House. The can- ticles and hymns were really beautifully rendered by the Choir to whom great credit. is due for their 'presentation of the anthem Worship , based on the words of the hymn, O, brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother . It was extraordinary to note the difference in the quality of the Choir's tone as heard in a spacious church, in contrast to the effect of the low ceiling of the School Chapel, and made one hope for the time Cin the near future ?l when we shall have a Chapel, Worthy of the School, which will bring out the full beauty of the organ and the glory of young boys' rich voices. The Rector, the Rev. C. H. Boulden, at one time House- master of the Junior School and a veteran of World Wars I and II, spoke briefly of the celebrations in connection with the one hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary, and thanked all those who had helped in the social entertain- ment during the week, those who had responded so gen- erously to the financial appeal made for the needed work in the church fabric, and the Choir of Trinity College School for the beautiful rendering of the closing service of the celebration. He stressed the necessity for looking for- ward and working for the future life and health of the Church rather than the remembrance of what St. Mark's had done for the individual and community life of Port Hope. After the service the Choir mysteriously disappeared over Jacob's Ladder, the shortest way to the Parish Hall, where the inner man was fortified by more than the kind- ness of various members of the parish. ... -1-l-. - Sacristans This year an overwhelming response was made to the Chaplains request for boys to help him in the Chapel. Mr. Bagley said he was most gratified to see so many boys interested in performing sacristan duties. As, it was im- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 possible to retain them all, it was decided to have each sacristan help in the Chapel for two terms only. McDowell has been appointed head sacristan and will share with Watts, Wright, and Boulden the duties of crucifer. The following boys are to help Mr. Bagley this term: Alley, Banks, Brodeur i, Byers, Burland, Chester, Cooper i, Doheny, Goering, Kingman, Morgan i, Mackenzie, Pater- son ii, Pepler i, Rhea, Scowen, Snowdon and Thompson i. Choir Notes The usual task of rebuilding the Choir is in progress. Our impressive and useful Bass and Tenor sections of last year are sadly depleted with the loss of Curtis, Taylor, Campbell ii, Campbell iii, Lawson, Pearson, Thompson ii, Dalley, Newcomb and Stewart. The past school year was so very successful from the viewpoint of choral work attempted and accomplished that the Choir now in the making will have to put its best foot forward to maintain that standard. We pay a sincere tribute to all the boys who made this success possible. We remember gratefully their enthusiasm and cheerful help, the giving up of much of their valuable spare time to practice, particularly when additional prac- tices were considered necessary to produce desired results. Not once did they fail to give of their best on the many occasions, special occasions, shall we say, that they were called on to perform, particularly might be mentioned the Choral Service, the concert on the eve of Speech Day, and the music on Speech Day. In June the Choir and Organist were honoured to re- ceive invitations from the Rectors of St. J ohn's Church, Port Hope, and St. Paul's Church, Perrytown, to sing Even- song at their respective churches. The invitations were gladly accepted and the memory of these services are pleasant ones, also of the Tuck that followed! 1U TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At St. John's, the fine organ added much to the accompaniments. This was particularly noticeable in the singing of the Halleluiah Chorus from The Messiah, an out- standing item. At St. Paul's, the Anthem was rendered in masterly fashion, in fact much better than on two previous occasions that the writer recalls. The response to the appeal for volunteers for the choir at the beginning of this term was quick and cheering, with more would-be choristers than vacancies. It is much re- gretted that all could not be accepted because of the limited space available in the choir stalls. Mr. Bagley, our chaplain, very rightly deserves men- tion from us for his encouragement at all times and his frequent help at practices. Many thanks, too, are due to Miss Wilkin for her care of the Choir Vestments and her attendance before Sunday Services armed withneedle and thread and sundry other items to take care of the Choir boys. The following choir appointments were made recently: Head Choir Boy, Goeringg Senior, Junior School Choir Boy, Clarke ig Choir Librarian, Cooper i. Members of the Choir this year are: Tenor-Goering, Watts, Graham, Boulden, Chester, Cross, Hughes ii. Bass-Deverall, dePencier, Pepler, James, Snowdon, Har- vie i, Croll, Mackenzie-Kennedy, Byers, Paterson ii, Thompson i, Morgan i, Welsford. Alto-Cooper i, Bovey, Cooper ii, Thompson iii, Pasmore.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 BISHOP DuMOULIN Frank DuMoulin who died in Cobourg, Ontario. on July 9, 1947, was a son of the late Bishop DuMoulin of Niagara. He attended T.C.S. from 1885 to 1889 and in his final year he was a Prefect. From T.C.S. he went on to Trinity College, Toronto, where he graduated in 1894. Al- ways an enthusiastic Churchman, he became the first Do- minion Secretary of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. Or- dained as Assistant Curate of Holy Trinity, Toronto, he de- cided at the close of his diaconate to seek wider experience by a year's work in the United States. So great were the opportuntunities, so vast the field of work, he was per- suaded to continue his Ministry there. Promotion came rapidly to this gifted Preacher and Organiser. From Tri- nity Church, Chicago, he was called to be Rector of Em- manuel Church, Cleveland. Returning to Chicago, he left a deep impression on the Parish of St. Peter's, especially on the young men, seven of whom took Holy Orders, dur- ing his eight years service as Rector. Cleveland called him back to that city to be Dean of Trinity Cathedral. Seven years later, he was elected Bishop Co-adjutor of Ohio. After ten years in this position, he resigned on account of ill health. A year's rest, and he was back in harness in Philadelphia as Rector of the Church of the Saviour. After some years of strenuous work in this important Church, he entered a more peaceful sphere as Rector of the Parish of St. John's Church, Lattington, Long Island. In 1943 Bishop DuMoulin retired from active Work. Among his degrees were B.A., M.A., and B.D. of Trinity College, and LL.D. conferred by St. Francis Xavier Uni- versity. Eight DuMoulins have been at T.C.S., all brothers and nephews of the late Bishop DuMoulin. The DuMoulin family is one of the famous T.C.S. families. A dynamic and lovable personality, linked to boundless energy, Bishop DuMoulin left a lasting impression on those to Whom he ministered. The School may well be proud of him. He was proud of the School. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD J. BRUCE MacKINNON His many friends were deeply shocked and grieved to hear of the sudden death on July 21st of Mr. Bruce Mac- Kinnon. Elected to the Governing Body in the spring of 1939, Mr. MacKinnon had for eight years given much time and attention to the affairs of the School. His understanding and sound judgment were of immeasurable value in the dis- cussion of School matters and always his kindly disposition and thoughtfulness won him countless friends. He was in- deed a man on whom one could build an absolute trust. As Chairman of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, Mr. MacKinnon went to great pains to see that proper plans were made for the upkeep of the fabric and surround- ings of the School. Never did he miss a meeting of the Governing Body and his reports were always 'direct and to the point. Realizing the value of films, he gave the School a sound projector and screen, which have been put to good use over the years. Mr. MacKinnon was born in Scotland on September 30th, 1889. He was educated at Glasgow Academy and en- tered business in Scotland in 1907. Later he went to the Philippines with his firm, where he managed large sugar estates. He came to live Canada in 1924. During the war he offered his services to the Govern- ment and did valuable work of a secret nature. He was also a member of the Dominion Council of the Navy League. Mr. MacKinnon was a Director of several companies and Vice-President of the Blue Ribbon Corporation. He was on the Board of Trinity College, Toronto, as well as being a member of the Governing Body of Trinity College School. His son, Peter MacKinnon, was at T.C.S. from 1937 until 1941. J.

NOTES J- Among the Toilers Come summer, most T.C.S. boys seek employment in one field or another and gain useful knowledge and ex- perience. Last summer when the government asked for boys to act as forest rangers, McDowell, Boulden and Deverall, among others, responded and enjoyed a summer filled with hard work, outdoors, and fun. Also in the out- doors were Rogers and Graham who combined work with seeing the country as caddies at Jasper where they plodded the fairways under western skies. Mr. Hodgett's summer camp supplied work for Hughes, Hyde, Conyers, Payne, McIntyre and Jarvis besides giving them resplendent tans and pleasure galore. We are sure this camp will provide happy summers for more T.C.S. boys in the future. It is hard to say very much concerning Ron Watts' job, for he was at the Port Hope Radium plant and details of his work must remain secret. Out west again we find Tessier and Sweny working in a neon sign company and spending leisure hours brightening Vancouver society. Just as en- joyable a time was had by Cox in Bermuda, where he was a gas station attendant and driving instructor from 11 p.m. until 7 a.m. To many at T.C.S., this might be the first knowledge that there are cars in Bermuda but it's a fact. Equally amazing is the fact that Mike Brodeur, having procured a job as a chartered accountant's apprentice, claims to have spent many enjoyable hours wrestling with columns of figures. Altogether T.C.S. was well represented in the ranks of the employed. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Sermon on the Screen September 12 Did you know that the number of stars in the heavens is equal to approximately ten to the power of twenty-eight? Have you ever seen a caterpillar turn into a butterfly or actually watched a flower grow? Most of us at the School would have had to answer No , to these questions until Mr. Harris of the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, showed us a movie called The God of Creation . In this film we saw a few of the more remarkable feats which God per- formed in making the universe. The movie ended on the theme that God promised to forgive our sins if we will only believe in Him and realize that He is the Creator of this remarkable world of ours. We should like to thank Mr. Harris for giving us an hour of entertainment which was both educational and en- joyable. The Unslmg Benefactress Undoubtedly when Penelope Dale invaded the world on June 20 she did not realize that, apart from adding an- other delightful female to civilization, she was also making two hundred T.C.S. boys happy by giving them, before the first rugby game, one of those rare events labelled half- holidays. However, after Mr. Ketchum had announced our re- spite and thanked Mr. Dale, and the latter, blushing as be- fitted a proud papa, had thanked Mr. Ketchum, it was noticed that there had been a very sad omission-not a single person had thanked Penelope, the true benefactress. 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 'llhe Whistler: Dr. Nick-el ' september 25 On this evening, the School was honoured by a visit from one of Hollywood's outstanding individuals, Dr. Nic- kel. A whistler par excellence, Dr. Nickel gave a most memorable performance and the School was amazed at his ability and versatility. Using records or accompanying himself at the piano, Dr. Nickel whistled The Secret , The William Tell Over- ture , I Love You Truly , The Glow Worm , The Indian Love Call and as a finale The Blue Danube . Dr. Nickel accompanied his whistling with informal conversation and a demonstration of some very fine bird calls. At one point he even had the whole audience whist- ling for him. Dr. Nickel concluded by telling us of a les- son in human nature that he learned while in England. The School very much enjoyed Dr. Nickel's visit and especially so since he came in spite of a bad cold. We hope it will not be long before he visits the School again. The New Boys' Picnic On the first Sunday in the term, the Prefects called the news boys together, and pointed out, in a fatherly man- ner, how they were to behave and what their status was. To many, this was a terrifying experience. But to show that the Prefects are human and not demi-gods, the new boys were invited to a picnic to be held on the following Sunday. This year we had a perfect day for the picnic, and after Morning Chapel, we got into old clothes- Oh in what divers colours they came! Then, packed into cars, We set off for the picnic grounds. Many of us, upon arriving, sought peace and quiet after the rush of school life. Others asked about lunch. Some even went swimming. I must not forget those of us TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 to whom football is the essence of entertainment, for a game was soon under way. Towards the end of lunch, a grand meal of corn-on-the- cob, chicken, and ice cream, there were cries of what now? After much gesticulating and explaining, we decid- ed to play a game called Capture The Flag . It was a case of Brent against Bethune. When we had had enough of this, We played a ball-game, which lasted until it was time to go home. So ended one of the pleasanter days of a New Boy's life. -A New Boy. Scholarships On Thursday, Oct. 16, the School received a half-holi- day in honour of the boys who won scholarships at the end of the last School year. Chief among those who Won the scholarships was J. D. Prentice, who won a Dominion Cadetship to Royal Roads fthe N aval-Air Force Collegel, coming first in the entrance examinations. Other scholar- ships won by T.C.S. boys last year were: the Professor Wm. Jones Scholarship at Trinity College, Toronto, won by T. W. Lawson, the Rev. F. A. Bethune Scholarship at Trinity College, won by R. D. Butterfield and the Richardson Mem- orial Scholarship at Queen's University, won by E. W. D. Hamilton. - The Dramatic Society This year the Dramatic Society has already held several meetings. Watts has been elected president, Do- heny vice-president, Taylor secretary, Rhea treasurer, and Thompson i committee member. Mr. Dale is again acting as adviser. Several new members, Boulden, de Pencier, Ful- ford, McDowell, Paterson ii, and Pitt, have been admitted this year and with many of its old members back again, the Society is looking forward to a very successful year. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The School Council' The following boys have been elected to the School Councils- VI Schol.: Alley, 1Fu1fordJg VIA: McIntyre, fGoeringJg VIB 81 VS: Thompson i, CChesterlg VA: Stratford, CScowenJg VB: Maclaren, fHuyckeJg VC: Bogue i, CTes- sierlg IVA: Greenwood, fHeardJg IVBI: McGill, 1Moffittlg IVBII: Peters, CCOXJQ III Sz H: Smith ii, CSavageJg New- boys: Kennedy, iLawson ij. - The Headmaster and not more than three Prefects are ex-officio members. Meetings of the Council will be held every two weeks on days to be decided by the mem- bers. The first meeting was held in the Guild Room, on Friday, October 10, at 7.30 p.m. 11.1 The Old Boys' Thanksgiving Week-end This year again a large number of Old Boys returned to the scene of their crimes, on the Old Boys' week-end. Unfortunately there were fewer Old Boys from Montreal than last year because the McGill-Varsity football game did not coincide with the week-end. It was decidedly notice- able that the majority of those who returned were boys who had left within the last few years. On Sunday the great influx began and by evening over a score of Old Boys had already arrived. That evening an informal sing-song was held in front of the School. Most of the Old Boys spent the night in make-shift quarters throughout the School. Surprisingly enough, several of them managed to crawl out to late breakfast the next morning! As it was raining Monday morning, the New Boys' race was postponed for an hour by which time the weather had cleared up. A satisfying Thanksgiving Dinner was followed by the singing of some School songs led by Dickie Butterfield and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 Alex Paterson. That afternoon the Old Boys with two full teams gave an excellent exhibition of football in trouncing the First Team which was handicapped by the loss of most of its first line due to injuries. After tea at the Lodge, the Old Boys went their ways and another Old Boys' week-end had come to a close. The quiet of the evening was almost deafening after the festivities which had taken place. -.i Analysis of Upper School Results, 1947 CSixth Formj No. of candidates ......................,...................... 45 Papers attempted ...... .............. 3 55 Papers passed .......... .............. 3 15 88.776 Papers failed ....................,.. ......... 4 0 11.392 First class honours ............. ......... 8 0 22.5fk Second class honours ............ ......... 7 5 21.1W Third class honours .,........ ......... 7 3 20.5Zp Credits ........................................ ................... 8 7 24.5721 Total honours ...........,.......................................... 228 64.2076 The three candidates for the Naval-Air Force Col- lege were successful.

I had the duty of finding out something about them in order to introduce them to the Old Boys and members of the School through the Record. I tackled Mr. Hett first. When 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD I told him I had to write an article about him he treated me as though I were bullying him. Finally, I convinced him that I meant no harm. He then very kindly let me squeeze out a few facts about himself. First of all he is a bachelor. This has been a great asset both to him and to us, for it has permitted him to roam around the world and to come to T.C.S. for a year. As soon as he left school he joined the Royal Flying Corps in World War I, but never reached the front because his Canadian flying instructor crashed him, breaking his jaw. After the war he completed a course at Oxford in English Language and Literature, and shortly afterwards went to the University of Hong Kong to teach for a few years. From there he made his first visit to Canada. It can hardly be counted, though, because he saw only Vancouver. When returning from Hong Kong to England he went by way of the Trans-Siberian railway. The Russians allowed him to spend all of four hours in Moscow in between trains. After a few years at home and in France he was again caught by the Wanderlust. This time it was India, the Pun- jab. He taught there, at Government College, for several years. Again he went home, and then dashed off to Ger- many. He spent the winter there and returned in the spring of '38. He was one of those people who, upon mentioning Nazi war preparations they had seen, were labelled war-mongers. He was called into the R.A.F. In- telligence service, and, until the French signed an armistice, served as a liaison officer with the French air force. He is now on loan to T.C.S. for one year from his own school, the Royal Grammar School at High Wycombe. His most notable feat since arriving here has been to beat Mr. J. Kramer Knight at tennis. His pet aversion is whist- ling indoors, but after a year at this school he will probably find himself taking the habit back to his school in Eng- land. Perhaps before he leaves he will be able to go Westg thus he will have completed the circle of the world. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 Mr. Bishop, our other new master, has already circled the globe once, and his trip to Canada is a start on the second tour. It is not likely that he will finish it, though, because he is not a travelling man, being married. It was the War that sent him around the globe. He was a Met officer in the R.N.V.R., serving in the Atlantic and Pacific. Since he was brought up for fourteen years in France, Mr. Bishop is bilingual. After University and several years teaching he began a long stay at Dartmouth Naval College. He not only taught there but he was a great help to the boys in their outside interests. He is an enthusiastic sailor and has done a great deal of ocean racing. Perhaps he and the Bermudians will get together and have a good old weep over the lack of sailing here. Mr. Key, too, has at last found someone to chat about art with, for Mr. Bishop does oil painting as a hobby. As he is also an amateur meteo- rologist, there will no longer be any excuse for the School worrying about the weather before its games. We hope our weather will not make him give up Canada in despair, but rather will present such a challenge to his skill that he will decide to stay permanently. -P. H. R. Alley, VI Form. LITERARY TASTE OF THE SCHOOL The most popular type of book in the School is modern, best-seller, fiction, books of this type in the library are in constant demand. A poor second place in popularity is shared by detective stories and books of humour. Refer- ence books and modern non-fiction attract a sizable num- ber of readers, but biography, and more especially, poetry, plays, and classics have few adherents. The author whose books have in recent years attracted the greater number of readers is John Buchan, while more or less evenly fighting for second place come A. J. Cronin, Leslie Charteris, P. G. Wodehouse and Neville Shute. 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Daphne DuMaurier, James Hilton, Nordhoff and Hall, and C. S. Forester also have a vigorous following. The Cita- del, Farewell to Arms, and A History of Modern Times UD form a three way tie for the title of the most widely read book in the library. When a book is turned into a movie its appeal in the School library always increases enormously, however, old favourites such as Dracula, Jules Verne Omnibus, and Rupert of Hentzau still retain a faithful following. It is amusing to note that not one of the thirteen peo- ple who undertook the task of reading Les Miserables suc- ceeded in advancing to volume two of the work, though curiously enough two people tackled volume two without bothering with volume one. Certain boys' names turn up in the backs of the less serious and noted novels in the library with depressing regularity. It is this type of reader which has helped make the adventure stories of Westermen, A Century of Creepy Stories, and other books of a similar level popular in the library. While the books just mentioned have been in wide demand nobody has bothered to even start the Pulitzer Prize biography of Benjamin Franklin by Carl Van Doren, and Marquis James's Pulitzer Prize biography An- drew Jackson has attracted only one borrower. The frequency with which different individuals use the library naturally varies greatly, last year, for instance, five boys failed to utilize the library once while another boy in three years at the School has used the library one hundred and seventy times. Though the literary taste of the School is not as com- prehensive and discriminating as might be wished, it is, judging by the best-seller lists, at least on a par with that of the country as a whole. --D. W. Fulford, VI Form. n TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD 25 BRIEF BIOGRAPHIES BREWER, W. J.-Bill will go down in T.C.S. history as one of her best athletes and Head Prefects. He was a member of the great '43 Bermudian immigration in- to Bethune House. He quickly rose to recognition as a star soccer player and in '45 won a distinction cap. Switching to rugby in his last year, he was a triple- threat man, and did some of the best kicking the School has ever seen, later winning the kicking, catch- ing and passing cup. He also took up basketball for the first time and was a standout. He captained the Little Big Four champion squash and cricket teams and for his leadership he was awarded a distinction cap in cricket. The highlight of the cricket season was his 99 in the S.A.C. game. Always a track star, he took most of the trophies and set several new records. In tennis he de- feated McPherson in a hard fought match 7-5, 13-11, to win the School championship. An exceptional athlete, he won the Grand Challenge Cup and the Jack Maynard Trophy. On top of all this Bill found time to be a fine Head Prefect lBermuda's firstl and a swell fellow. The ovation he received on Speech Day as he carried off his many awards, topped by the Bronze Medal, clearly show- ed his popularity. Never accused of being a scholar, Bill is continuing his studies in Toronto where we wish him the best of luck. He will not soon be forgotten by the School and its friends. HYDE, H. A.-After winning the Hamilton Bronze Medal in the J.S., Humble Harry came up to the S.S. in '43 and continued to be outstanding in sports, school work and, most especially, in general all-round popularity. It was probably this last quality which made him an un- challenged candidate for second Prefect of the School. Harry was always obliging, always thoughtful and al- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ways successful. He was friendly to everybody and would do anything upon request. One of his outstand- ing qualities was his superb sense of humour. The de- bates in which he participated were always saved from boredom by his ready wit and engaging humorous style. The vice-presidency of the Debating Society was the obvious reward for this skill. His humour again showed itself when he undertook the Brent House notes one month and undoubtedly produced one of the best efforts of the year. His athletic prowess was ably displayed, for he walked off with first team colours in rugby, hoc- key and cricket. The tremendous applause which greet- ed the presenting of the McMullen Trophy to Hank was a simple demonstration of what the School thought of him. We wish him the best of luck at Trinity College and we know that he will continue his unconscious habit of picking up friends wherever he goes. H CAMPBELL, I. B.-Yan came to the School on the hill in the dark year of '42, and since then the world and Ian have steadily marched on. He made many friends and soon established a reputation of eagerness for hard work. Ian was not a natural athlete, but he made teams by drive and determination. His best sport was hockey at which he played for Littleside, Middleside, and Hnally Bigside teams. Yan's lightning dashes down the left wing must have confused even the best of our opponents. On the 1945 soccer team he starred as a back, giving the defence added strength. As one of the converted soccer players Ian turned out for Bigside football in his last year. Early in his final year he was made a Prefect, fully deserving the privileges and responsibilities . As Head Sacristan he excelled, all activities connected with the Chapel being performed without fuss or bother. Yan always beat the deadline as School News Editor of the Record, except when proofs got lost in the mail! He was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 also an officer of no mean ability in the Cadet Corps, helping Bethune win the drill trophy. The year before he led the band when it won the award for the best band in our Military District. Despite many struggles with Mr. Knight on the squash and tennis courts it never was quite clear who won in the end! After a very success- ful stay at T.C.S. Ian has begun to study accountancy in which career we wish him the best of luck. - CONYERS, W. N.- Nev , as one of our outstanding Ber- mudians, graced T.C.S. with his presence in '43 together with several of his compatriots. In his final year, in addition to being a School Prefect, he captained the swimming team, was vice-captain of the championship cricket team, lwith the terrific bowling average of four- teen wickets for sixty runs in the seriesl and stood up admirably for the School in squash and football. Al- though in the years before he was a brilliant soccer player, he turned his arts to rugby in his final year, but due to an injury was not able to play in all the Little- Big-Four games. In tennis, his graceful style and well co-ordinated shots put him high in the running for the tennis cup. Van was always known for his attrac- tiveness to the fairer sex by which he was constantly mobbed. Not to be overlooked is his scholarly standing with which he has proceeded to the University of To- ronto. We feel sure that his competent leadership and good-natured qualities will carry him successfully through his college years. T.C.S. looks forward to your victories, Nev! FRENCH, J. B.-Frenchy came into our happy little gathering with a host of other care-free youngsters in the fall of '43. The lad from Cuncurd Mass. arrived with great expectations, and after a few skirmishes with the Prefects, proceeded to fulfil them. Jack gained his TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD first team rugby colours for two years, being co-captain and quarterback in his last year. During this year he was a stalwart basketball star, performing exceptionally well at guard all year. Not to be outdone by his room- mate Brewer, Jack made the championship cricket team in his final year, where his able fielding and steady batting did much to upset the hopes of our opponents in the Little Big Four. These were Jack's main athletic endeavours but he also dabbled in squash and skiing, but due to an argument with several of the more obstinate slalom poles he failed to Win the School championship. In the more sedentary occupations, Frenchy was also out- standing. He Was a natural brain and startled no one by winning the mathematics prize for the sixth form. As Editor-in-chief of the Record he met all difficult problems with great success. When Mr. Taylor left us, added weight was thrown upon Jack's broad shoulders. In his last year Jack was made a Prefect for his all- round ability. He carried out his duties well and this year has entered Williams College in the land of his birth. All the best of luck, Jack! LAWSON, T. W.- Rufus fthe T.C.S. school spirit boyj boimced into Brent House in '43 as a member of the im- mortal Cottage Gang Cthe Prefects' despairl. He imme- diately established himself as a perpetual motion ma- chine, and wherever Rufus was there was sure to be a commotion. On the football field he also attracted atten- tion. After starring on Littleside and Middleside teams he rose to Bigside and co-captained the team, winning a distinction cap for his great play. Last year he was also a member of the first hockey team and of Middleside gym, but gave up cricket Che was captain of Middleside the year beforel to devote his full attention to studies. This strategy obviously succeeded for he Won a scholarship to Trinity College. Rufus fthis was sometimes cor- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 rupted to Refuse J entered every phase of School life and gave everything he had. A leader in founding the Dramatic Society, he became its first president. Last year as the villain in the School play, he was so con- vincing that he made a little girl in the audience cry. He was also president of the Debating Society, a stalwart bass in the choir, and Feature Editor of the Record, building that department literally from the ground up. For all this and his enthusiasm he was made a Prefect in his final year. We only hope that Tom's stay at Trinity College will be as Rowdy Dow as it was here. JARVIS, R. S.-Bobby popped into the Senior School in '42 fresh out of the Junior School. He wasn't much noticed for a little while, but by patient perseverance he began to attract attention. Then his long climb began. He went from House Officer to Senior and finally in his last year reached the highest goal, a Prefect. Bobby was no less spectacular on the sports field. In his final year he was vice-captain of football, captain of gym., manager of the first hockey team, a tennis player of no little renown, and an excellent squash player, represent- ing the School in all its tournaments. Bobby added yet another record to this collection. He spent four years on the first gym. team and in his final year he was awarded a distinction cap for his good work. Besides his sports, it is known that he wielded a mean bridge hand and he was a part of many a fiendish battle which took place off and on in the Seniors' Common Room. Bobby has now entered the world of business and if he piles up as much credit in that field as he did here, he ought to sell a lot of merchandise. Best of luck, Bobby. CURTIS, W. A.-Before Wilf entered the Senior School, he spent a year in the Junior School. Then in the fall TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD of '42, he made his auspicious entrance into the S.S. Wilf in his first year was what is termed a good boy , but in his later years he, Bobby Jarvis, and Lefty O'Grady made up for this little oversight. Wilf was a BIG man, why some say he even sported a mustache now and then. His size stood him in good stead for in his final year here, he was one of the cogs of our well-working football machine. Wilf also dabbled in cricket and be- came a bowler and batter of some renown CD on Middle- side. Although handicapped by his size, he worked hard and became the Captain of Middleside Gym. Wilf was leader of the bass section and head choir boy in his last year and served also on the Record staff. He left us, a House Prefect, to go to the R.C.A.F. College at Royal Roads, and we wish this budding flyer the best of luck and success. PAYNE, G. A.- Gordie , Mexico's gift to T.C.S., breezed into the corridors of Brent House in the Fall of '43 after a stay of two years in the J .S. Four years later, when he left T.C.S., Gordie had established an enviable record. He received his colours in football, hockey and cricket, being a member ofour championship team. In his spare time Gorgon earned his Middleside Gym. colours and in his final year he battled his way to the championship of his weight in boxing. He represented his House in tennis and also ran in the Oxford Cup race. Gordie was really noted for his fishing skill l?l fVVhat he did on those trips is a mystery, for he rarely came back with any fish.l For his all-round hard work and good nature Gordie was made a House Prefect in his last year. Gordie is now taking Chemical Engineering at Ajax and all the best of luck goes with him. Adios Amigo, Bueno Suerte! . COX, W. M.-Bill wandered into Bethune House straight from sunny Bermuda back in '43. His combination of TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 Bermudian twang and an infectious laugh won him last- ing popularity, from his first week at School. An out- standing athlete, he played on the soccer team for three years and finally turned to rugby in his last year to be- come a stalwart lineman. Gym. was another of his strong points-a long-standing member of Bigside, it was rumoured that he was trying to convert everyone to walking on their hands. In boxing he became known as the knock-out boy, and those who saw it will never for- get the boxing match between George Taylor and Bill, which ended in a tie for the Bradburn Cup. In the fall Bill turned out for the Oxford Cup race and in his final year he Won the cup. Last spring he had the highest senior aggregate score in the Track Meet. These activi- ties, however, were not enough for Nort, who had to satisfy a zealous ardour for cutting down expensive trees with his notorious axe. Still he had time to carry out his Senior's duties competently. Not brilliant, he worked hard and was rewarded with his Senior Matriculation which gained him admittance into Trinity College where we know he will succeed. .. - FENNELL, T. S.-With pipe in hand, Scotty staggered in- to School in '44 and dropped rapidly into the smoker. From this worthy abode he would now and again come forth with a peculiar kind of cushion or pillow about his legs, and with these implements as protection, he man- aged to save many sure goals for the School hockey team. On week-ends he would trade these objects for a pair of wooden slabs which he would attach to his feet. Many hills were conquered by Scotty in this manner when the snow lay deep on the countryside. He climaxed his ski- ing career by winning the cross country race fwithout his pipel and the Bill Strong Memorial Trophy, emblema- tic of the School championship. Originator of many classical remarks at School, his greatest one was I.C.C.L. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD CI couldn't care lessl which he used at every oppor- tunity. It wasn't his true attitude toward life at School, however, for he took a true interest in nearly every branch of School activity. In his last year Scotty was made a Senior and carried out his duties well. This year he is attending Oakwood Collegiate in Toronto, and if he is half as popular there as he was at T.C.S. he is sure of a successful career. TAYLOR, G. B.- Geoff and all his muscles strode into Bethune House in the Fall of '44 and stayed for three years. He will long be remembered for his physique and the feats of strength he performed with Bill Cox on the Bethune House terrace. Geoff was a natural athlete, adapting himself quickly to whatever game he played, for he made Bigside rugby in his second year at the game. He was on the first hockey team for two years, in the last year as captain. In the summer term he took up track and won the intermediate championship. He also came third in the Oxford Cup race. Geoff was out- standing in more than athletics, for he was Literary Editor of the Record, a leading member of the Choir and Dramatic Society, and he managed to get seven firsts in his Departmental Exams. He was a stalwart member of Bottom Flat Bethune in his final year and could often be seen telling an admiring audience some of his tall stories. Geoff is entering the Faculty of Engineering at McGill this year where we know he will do well. l.-L.11li-i ARMOUR, J. M.- Tank followed the footsteps of his brothers here in 1943. In his new-boy year he played on the Littleside rugby team, and then after several years of play on Middleside he graduated to Bigside, and won a half first team colour for his efforts. As a snap he played particularly well in last year's U.T.S. game. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Never a very enthusiastic cricket player, Tank preferred to take walks in the country f?l, discovering rustic oddities in his rambles. He was a Senior in his final year, being strict, yet well respected. In the common room he was known for his unorthodox ways of sub- duing his victims! As head librarian he kept the library in tip-top shape all year. Being a consistently good Worker while he was here, Tank had little trouble in en- tering the University of Toronto. While we feel sure that we are well represented, we should like to wish him well in the future. - STEWART, A. M.- Little Nels moved up to the S.S. in '42, after a brief sojourn in the J.S., choosing Brent House and thus profiting by his brother's mistake. Though handicapped by size in football, he tried hard and attained his Middleside colours. Last year he was one of Bigside's managers. His main achievement lay elsewhere than in sports, however. The voice was known for his golden throated C?J singing fit penetrated to all corners of Brent Housel and was a stalwart in the choir. In the cadet corps last year, as band sergeant, he led the band to another very successful year. Also a member of the Record staff, Nels was made a Senior for his contributions to the life of the School. We might well add that he was one of the best dressed ill mem- bers of the Seniors' common room. He is now continuing his studies at Forest Hill and we wish him the best of luck with them. .. ...T1.li NEWCOMB, W. K.- Nogi entered Brent House in the Fall of '44 for his first few days at T.C.S., but wisely C?l changed to Bethune very soon. He was a useful mem- ber of Bigside hockey, Middleside football and cricket in his final year. In the latter sport he distinguished him- self by having the steadiest average on the team. going TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD out first ball in nearly every game! Nogi was award- ed the cup for Keenness in Athletics in his final year due to his good sportsmanship and enthusiasm in all the School games. Nogi was very fond of playing golf and he could often be seen endangering peop1e's lives on the campus in the Summer term. He worked hard during his last two years and soon became known as one of the brains of the School. His efforts were rewarded by eight firsts in his Upper School exams. Nogi took part in all the major extra-curricular activities, being a mem- ber of the Choir, Record Staff and Dramatic Society. For his contribution to School life he was made a Senior in his final year. By his friendly nature he won many friends at School who will long remember him. He leaves us this year for McGill where we wish him the best of luck. BAKER, S. P.- Steve entered Bethune House in 1943 and was, from the beginning, a source of wit and humour, typified by his inimitable impersonations. Coming from the west, he was somewhat untamed and the despair of authority, becoming involved in such incidents as the mysterious disappearance of Doug Hutching's bed! Steve was a combination of athlete and scholar, one of the bright lights of each form he was in, and in his last two years classed as one of the brains , While he played a good game of soccer and squash, his strong points were skiing and swimming of which sports he was captain and vice-captain respectively, leading each team to highly successful seasons. In addition, he was an ex- cellent photographer for the Record and was a member in good standing of the back row choir. For his many contributions to School life he was made a Senior in his last year. Steve ha.s gone on to Queen's and we wish him luck in all his future undertakings. We know his good nature will make him as popular at Queen's as it did here. . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 WELLS, A. C. B.-Tony's small but dynamic form was first seen in the halls of T.C.S. in the fall of '44. It soon became known that if anything was up, Tony was gen- erally at the bottom of it with his fiendish laugh and ready argument. Despite his inconsequential bulk Tony was on the first hockey team for two years, in his final year being elected vice-captain and earning the most valuable player award. It was a joy to watch Tony stick-handle almost between the legs of his larger but not more skilful opponents. He was a steady bat and a sound fielder on the first cricket team for two years. Although Tony was too light to make the first football team, he was a good football player and got his Middle- side colours in his second year. In his last year Tony took to soccer where his avoirdupois wou1dn't count so much and his ability would. Tony was a Senior in his final year and a member of the School Council. Because of his interest in all sports he was a good Sports Editor on the Record staff. Tony is now going to Varsity where we wish him success. The School will not forget quickly the sight of Tony emerging from a huge white sweater-coat to argue fervently with all those around him. BUTTERFIELD, R. D.-When Dickie entered the halls of his great predecessors in Bethune House he was just an- other wild Bermudian. When he left us last year he was still a Bermudian but of a somewhat different type. Dickie's first love in the sporting world was soccer, and last year he held down a strong half position on the first soccer team, gaining his colours. In the winter Dickie donned his blades and played for Mr. G-T's International Rabbit League, captaining the Rabbit all-stars to a vic- tory over Lakefield. He was also a devotee of track in which he excelled at the hurdles. Dick was on the Record staff and contributed many fine articles and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD poetry. He also took a keen interest in the Dramatic Society, of which he was treasurer, and organized many social events for it. A fine actor, he took a leading part in all productions and always gave a good account of himself. More important than Dickie's fine scholastic record, which won him a scholarship at the U. of T. and his all-round ability which earned him his Senior privi- leges, was his cheery smile and good humour. We miss his sparkle in the House this year but we know Trinity College will profit from it as We did. - PEARSON, G. E.-Gerry was known to most of us for his instrumental abilities. To say that he was a good clarinet player is putting it mildly, Benny Goodman could take a few tips from him. It was a regular fea- ture of Bethtme House life to gather in his room for a rendition of such songs as The Sunny Side of the Street . Besides the clarinet, he played the sax and trumpet equally well, reason enough for his being the leader of the School orchestra. Although he couldn't display many of his talents as Bigside rugby co-manager. the Bigside skit wouldn't have been nearly so entertain- ing without his keyboard rendition of Rhythm in our Nursery Rhymes . An able Senior, Gerry served the School as a bass for two years in the choir. His Record House Notes sorely afflicted the weary Brentite scribes who strove to equal him. Hailing from Edmonton, Gerry is now attending the University of Alberta. We hope that his untiring jollity will see him through life as well as it did here at T.C.S. Keep smiling Jerry! .1i1l11i -- DAME, J. A.-Shorty was six feet some inches when he came to the School in '45 and when he left in '47 he was six feet and some more inches tall, but every inch of his amazing stature was imbued with that rare combina- tion of wit and spontaneous good humour. In his first TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 year Shorty played a bit of soccer and basketball but studies kept him from taking athletics too seriously. However, he was keenly interested in sports and rarely missed a School game of any kind. In his second year he was made a Senior, and as it was also his second year in sixth form, he found more time to devote to sports and obtained half team colours in soccer. In spite of a mid-season injury which kept him out of the remain- ing games, he also obtained half team basketball colours. Shorty is at Harvard now and We hope he does as well at Work and sports there as he did here. Even more than that We hope the Harvard men are enjoying his constant good nature as much as the boys on bottom flat Bethune are missing it. CAMPBELL, G. R.-Chuck, or Little Chuck as he was sometimes called, Ca certain girl in Toronto could tell you more about thatj entered our home of learning in '-13. He soon established a name for himself among the voices of the School, and when any attempt at barber shop harmony took place, Chuck was there. This hobby stood him in good stead upon entrance to the School choir Where he remained for most of his stay at T.C.S., although for a period he was forced to drop out due to changing voice troubles. In his final year Chuck be- came a sacristan, Senior and a member of 6A. He dabbled in sports now and again, and served as Middle- side football manager one year, but his greatest achieve- ment lay in more cultural fields. He was one of the sup- porting pillars of the Dramatic Society, and his triumph as the king in the Easter play, The Queen's Husband , will long be remembered. Chuck is now enrolled in the University of Manitoba in Commerce and Finance, and We Wish our boy from the West the best of luck in future years. Yea the Campbell Clan! 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD VALETE Armour, J. M.-Form VIA C433, Senior, Half XII, Head Librarian, Record. Baker, S.

The Taylor Chucked the suit to him and he left to check up on his bank Vallance and help with the packing. His auto was piled with luggage. That's sure a full Carson, he said, then groaned as a case fell out and gave him a Bruce on his shin. 'Rhea! he shouted, as they finished packing, even though it was Snowdon like Hall. During' his journey he saw a number of boys out for a Merry Huycke in the Mac- kenzie valley. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 When he reached his destination he had a game of chess with his host's friend Rogers, but Rogers won, check- mating him with A. Knight. i- .1-.1- Second Flat My Dear Flock, I am so happy to have been asked to write this little letter for the parish magazine. So rarely do I seem to get the opportunity to tell you how I feel about you all. And now we're all feeling so happy at having a lovely full year ahead of us. I know I was counting the days till you all returned from your holidays! It is a grant comfort to hear all your happy voices about the parish again. You know, friends, I often have thought as I go around our parish and especially along our own dear little street how misleading names are, don't you think. Cross isn't a bit really, Burns merely smoulders, and as for Deadman I assure you I don't think he is. And yet, as you have heard it said Consider the Lily . Life is so confusing don't you think? It was good of you all to call on me so soon after you returned. And people have been dropping in on me every day after lunch so that I feel now as though you'd never been away. I feel I know you all so intimately, and such friendly people you are. Your doors are rarely closed and two at least of you share your radios and typewriters with us all. I am reminded of Acts 2 Verse 44 and they had all things common . I was glad to share my table with you all. I see we have a number of new parishioners with us this year and it's very encouraging to see the older mem- bers of the parish taking such a personal interest in them. I see the new members are on visiting terms already with some of our elders. So polite they seem to be too. I am sure we could all take a lesson from them. 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD And I must not forget those members of our parish who come from missionary districts overseas. I am very pleased to see them so happily settled in our parish and I am often moved to think what wonderful work is being done abroad. Such fine physiques some of them have. It is so encouraging to see that they desire to become civi- lized. I am sure that some day they'll be a wonderful help to us all. I know I must not take too much space but I would like to say a special word of welcome to those people who live in our more crowded tenements. Not for them the comforts we others so richly enjoy. So we must not blame them, dear friends, if their behaviour is sometimes a little rougher than our own customary gentleness. Street fight- ing, knife throwing, barricades and lengthy orgies behind locked doors are not unknown. Can it be the spirit of the Clan reviving? But we must remind ourselves you know A Ross by any other name .... . We must look well to our Savage Herds far from the GreenWoods and strive to keep them from the Mire and horrible Pit . Finally to those friends who could find nowhere to live within the parish may I send my warmest greetings. We miss their constant presence. They were always most willing to go down town for us! And now, my flock, dear sheep that you are, I must close knowing full well I shall see you all in church next Sunday. Such a comfort to us all. -E.R.B. Top Flat The Ex., September, 1947 The Exhibition is housed this year, most fittingly I thought, on the spacious upper floor of the Palace of In- dustry, situated between the Administrative Block on the west and the Rural Exhibits on the east. Beyond this and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47 to the north lie the Food Section, Rest Rooms, Building Trades exhibit, Aquacade and Hall of Sports. Let us, however, confine ourselves to the Exhibition proper and make a brief tour of its animated sections. Ascending the broad main staircase at the eastern extremity of the Palace of Industry, we find ourselves at the entrance to the Native Village-cunningly conceived with its twin rows of quaint huts lining the narrow alley- way. The babel of many tongues and all the aromas of the East fill the air, here are to be seen many curious ex- amples of primitive arts and crafts, and we experience some of the fascination of the unknown. Retracing our steps through this colourful bazaar, on each side of which squat the natives fsome no doubt feel- ing far from their native shoresj, we pass through the Hall devoted to primitive costumes through the ages and emerge onto the Covered Midway, which runs the entire length of the Exhibition. Here, with the long rows of tall windows on our right, the finishing of which was contri- buted to by many leading citizens, and the entrances to the exhibitors' pavilions on our left, the crowd is at its thickest. Here it is that many of the sideshows and divertisements for which this Exhibition is so widely known are staged. The first stand that we visit is the splendid display of modern furnishings and home-aids offered by the prom- inent firm of H.M.B. The Beauridge Pyramid furniture and the MacAnning electrical aids to up-to-date living form a striking commentary on modern trends. Next we enter the General Exhibits Section presented by the DurnWel Co. The display of hand-hammered metal is impressive, although their demonstration, two years ago, of this ancient craft was, I think, much more striking. Moving further down the Midway we visit the Plastics Pavilion, with its unique modern colour symphonies Cthere are also some things of Wood and some bright examples of the Potter's artl, and, next to this, the Hall of Electricity. This contains a fascinating array of Falstaff electrical 48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD instruments of every kind, all wired to an intricate control panel. The coloured lights may be said to literally fuse together in an astonishing fashion. The Photography Section is always crowded with visi- tors-photography being very much in bogue these days- and tribute is here paid to the illustrious name of Lumiere. There are some interesting Daguerrotypes on view. Lastly we come to the Radio Centre, packed with the latest in electronic engineering and listening aids. The Grahogue self-contained power supply is a new develop- ment in radio technique, which will bear watching in the future. I came away marvelling at the ingenuity of our research scientists. At the far end of the Midway is situated the Manage- ment Block, not of course, open to the public, for here are housed the giant switches which may be thrown in an emergency to avert panic and bring the whole mass of electrical machinery within the Exhibition to a standstill. Demonstrations of the efficiency of this modern system are given every evening before interested crowds. In all, this year's is a fascinating Exhibition, symbolic of the conquest of Man over the forces of nature-and of darkness. -J .E.D. BRENT HOUSE NOTES I have been asked, for some unexplained reason apart from the ingrained desire on the part of many boys in the School CBethuners in particularj to get the masters to do their harder work for them, to write the perennial so-call- ed Brent House Notes. These, I suppose should follow the usual line of least resistance, that of criticising the other House both in- dividually and collectively. Fortunately I feel strongly in agreement with the Irishman when he says that One fUn- quote! House fQuoteJ is as good as another and a great TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 deal better too. And that goes for Brent too. So I will leave the criticism of Bethune to the boys of that House and they, being a reasonably honest lot Cfor Bethunej, will make a thorough job of it. Every school has a motto which is supposed to be the lode-star and driving force for its student body and While all do not follow it or are driven by it, yet it serves for an ideal to be placed before them by visiting potentates and over-fond parents and therefore it is well, perhaps, as an over fond f'?J parent to set down a few words for the at- tention of Brent boys. Bethuners of course will not be in- terested. B stands for Brotherhood, a very necessary ideal for all at present and one which can well be cultivated with great advantage to every member of a community such as this, where the actions of each have their influence on the whole family. This leads to R for Responsibility and whether you like it or not you are your brother's keeper and you are responsible for his actions and thoughts which are both influenced by your Words and actions. I like to think also that every boy in the House feels it his responsibility to his parents that he shall give them not a mere pittance but a bountiful return for the Wonderful opportunities they are giving. In order to do this each must live up to the letter E for Enthusiasm. That means giving your Whole soul and spirit to work, to play, and to fitting yourself in every way to take a real leading place in whatever opportunity offers. Do not be content to let your life just happen. Make things happen the Way you want them, not with any selfish idea but aim high by careful planning and building on the proved and sure foundations of hard Work and straight- forward dealings with everyone about you. N stands for Natural. It has been said that the key note of good manners is B-natural and since manners make the man and cost nothing, it is natural that every Brent 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD boy should be noted at all times for his cheery, pleasant manners even in the most trying encounters with their neighbours round the West corner. Naturally every good Brenter, which means every Brenter, understands and uses the letter T for Truth- fulness. I hope it is the groundwork and Walls of the House and needs no comment except To thine own self be true and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man . In conclusion: Be Brotherly Be Responsible Be Enthusiastic Be Natural Be Truthful BE BRENT. -C.S.

They transformed themselves into a frightening tribute that swelled within me like an ominous warning, as I watched the few, remaining strands of life that lingered still in his broken body, slowly ebb away, letting him slip silently and forever into the merciless hands of awaiting death. And I thought, so this is 1ife's bitter end. How meaningless it seemed, how very, very futile. Here lay a man dying at the age of twenty-four. Life for him was finishing before it had really begun. How young he looked, lying there, his curly, black hair against the white, smooth pillow. And yet he deserved to die, for surely no man having done the things which he had done could ever hope to go unpunished. But was the world to be the loser because one man had sinned? I wondered then if many years ago Fate had destined that the world should never hear his music, that they should miss a wealth of glorious sound, for he had never written down a note, since, as he had often said, every chord and every phrase was embedded in his memory. Now he was dying, and with him was going forever his unheard music. He was a genius never to be acclaimed- a youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown. And as I sat there in that little 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD room in Saint Alban's Hospital, during the small hours of the morning, I thought of many things, and for the first time in my life I was horribly afraid, afraid of the mysterious unknown. It was as if all my faith and hope and belief had been suddenly swept away-leaving me com- pletely alone. Time is an eternity. How fleeting then becomes a single life. It is but an infinitesimal grain of sand on an ever- stretching, rolling desert. I looked at him again. Was this the finish-absolute and utter? Then I thought of myself, not of this human body, this temporary frame, but of my mind, my soul, my real self. And I thought of death -that bottomless, hidden abyss that is around us all the time. And to my mind came Shakespeare's tragic lines: Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow. It was still quite dark outside, and all was very silent. A clock was ticking quietly somewhere on a shelf-ticking away the last few moments of his ill-fated life. How ironical it seemed. Eight hours ago he had been alive and well. Eight hours ago he had been walking down the street towards the little restaurant where I was to meet him to have dinner and go on to the Opera. He had been in a foul mood, and my greeting he had acknowledged only by some indistinguishable phrase. We entered the dining- room Without a word. On reaching the table I tried to ignore his brusque manner and to speak in as friendly a tone as possible. But my efforts were quite in vain, for during the whole first course he scarcely uttered a sound. This all came as a bit of a shock, and I hardly knew to what I might attribute this strange transformation that had so mysteriously taken place in my companion. Some- thing had obviously changed him, unless, and I hated to think it, something for a long time hidden and concealed had now forced its way to the surface, crushing all his bet- ter qualities. But still I could not bring myself to believe TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 the scandalous rumours concerning him that had of late reached my ears. The silence had become almost unbearable when- What a fool I am, he cried bitterly. What a bloody, miserable fool! I sat there astounded at this sudden outburst. Then he started to talk to me. It was a horrible confession-a. relieving of the intolerable burden that was upon him. It came in short, painful sentences. What ever made me do it? I don't know what came over me. I was powerless, absolutely powerless. Be- lieve me I was. And the expression on her face. So piti- ful, so frightfully pitiful. But I didn't stop. No. She pleaded with me. But I didn't hear. And then, then when it was all over, I left her there, never to see her again. Never, never, Oh, my God, what have I done? His head fell in his hands, and he began to sob hysteri- cally. I sat there not knowing what to do. Then, unable to stand it any longer, I grabbed him by the arm and led him quickly from the room, endeavouring to protect him from the eyes of the curious. On reaching the cool, even- ing air, he seemed to pull himself together, and we started down the pavement, when suddenly, he darted from me, and before I had realized what had happened, he had rush- ed into the street and the cars hid him from me. There was the screeching of brakes. There was a dull, nauseat- ing thud, and he lay there, crumpled and twisted. We went to the hospital. As I sat there by his bed, I thought how quickly it had all happened. It was like a dream, a terrifying nightmare. I listened to the ceaseless tick-tock of the clock. I watch- ed his slow, weakening breathing. The room was gradual- ly getting lighter and lighter. Dawn was creeping over the sleeping city. And then, suddenly, the silence was com- plete. So this was death. I experienced no pang of sorrow, no sadness filled my heart. In fact there was no feeling at 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD all. It was as if all my senses had been numbed. How very strange, I thought. Mechanically I rose from the chair, crossed the room, and opened the door. Your patient is dead. My voice sounded hoarse and flat, as I addressed the nurse. She sprang to her feet. I walked on down the long, white corridor. My steps echoed noisily through the building, they were ridiculously loud. I passed many doors, and they stretched out in front of me as far as I could see. The corridor seemed endless. Someone was approaching me. A figure in white. It was one of the nurses. She was carrying a baby, a new-born infant. Automatically, I heard myself asking her if I might see the babe. She looked at me in a very strange way,hesitated, then pulled back the coverlet. The sight brought me back to a real and material world, and my whole body filled with an overpowering com- passion for the child. I turned away, and walked on-on down that long, dim corridor. Then suddenly I knew. It was then that I realized what had happened, and the feel- ing of depression left me. In its place crept a tingling excitement. It clutched at my whole body, and I trembled with the knowledge. I knew I was right. So this was not the end. Life was not a walking shadow. And as I threw open the door, the sun rose above the roofs in a glorious, triumphant blaze of light. It was the beginning of another day. --F. H. S. Cooper, VI Form. AN APPEAL Today, in this nation which we stoutly maintain to be democratic, there exists one of the most despotic tyrants of all time. Fashion, the heartless dictator of us all, men and Women alike, holds us in a state of subjection which would TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 seem incredible, at the least, to one not enlightened in the ways of modern dress. Consider our customary informal dress. Heavy leather shoes efficiently prevent all natural functions of the toes and cramp the feet into a condition which many of us spend half our lives attempting to alleviate. Shirts of broadcloth, an exceedingly uncomfortable material, are fastened tightly at the neck. The agony is further heigh- tened by the use of a firmly tied halter. Over this we wear a coat of coarse tweed or some other equally rough and irritating cloth. The man who must wear these is indeed uncomfort- able, but when we turn to formal attire, the effect is only prevented from being ludicrous by the fact that it is piti- ful. Many years ago a dandy discovered the starched shirt front, another invented the starched collar, and yet an- other devised patent leather shoes. Between these and a high silk hat, precariously fastened jewelry, and velvet lapels which must be kept immaculate and which were evidently constructed for the purpose of gathering lint, the poor homme du monde is surely sufficiently persecuted. But no, for added to his discomfort must be a halter, this time tied with infinite care to resemble the ribbon on a lady's hat box. Fortunately, and, I am sure, furtively. someone has perfected such a halter which comes already tied and equipped with an elastic for fastening it about the neck. Can you not imagine the inventor? His face is drawn and eyes red from lack of sleep, lurking in door- ways, manufacturing his product in dimly-lit basements, listening always for the knock which will tell him the frustrated and bloodthirsty fashion designers have caught up with him. It is the fashion designer, undoubtedly, who has the power to make and unmake customs of dress. In his for herl hands lies the comfort of millions. When the dress designer decides business is too slow, a decree goes out that skirts are to be three inches longer. Consequently 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the woman is to be denied next year that freedom of move- ment which she previously enjoyed and the unhappy male inevitably foots the bill. Are we to be forever persecuted in this manner? Are we to follow, like sheep, the orders of a fashion designer on Fifth Avenue? Can we not organize to throw off the yoke? Alas, upon an appeal to arms, I see enthusiasm fade. We are fond of words but disconcerted at the thought of action. And so the poor society butterfly, and the even poorer man on the street, must continue to suffer under the enslavement of a fickle, whimsical fashion. --J . P. Williamson, VI Form. 1. ON A BOY STANDING ON A RAILWAY PLATFORM He stood amid the noise and the bustle .... The impenetrable loneliness of many people pushing, The hollow stillness of men and women hurrying, As though eternity had thrown a pall of silence about them To shelter forever their painted illusion, To make them hang their heads everlastingly in an awed shame. And through the immense power of the wheels and pistons, Above the heads and soulless eyes of the people running, He saw a vision of the future, Taking shape out of the hazy outline of the afternoon The footsteps of conquerors stamped all around him, Yet their unheard voices cried to him, And their unseen faces had a look of expectancy, For he commanded their timeless presence, The keys to their endless night of power. And his will was like a whispered word, a wind of star- light, Rushing through the secret corridors of space Borne on the arc of throbbing darkness above him that was his heritage. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 The train had left, silence sweetened the sinking afternoon Yet he stayed, lingering in the quiet of an afterthought. And as he walked slowly home on the road hardened by the feet of the conquered He heard the voice of his destiny, As a trumpet call from beyond the horizon From the sun's kingdom of triumphant, everlasting after glow .... Bringing solitude for an evening, loneliness for a night Thence to vanish into the mists of childhood laughter. --C. M. Taylor, VI Form. 1T1l THE DREAM Dreams and the subconscious mind are two subjects about which I, as an amateur student of human psycho- logy, have thought a great deal , said the man, in a half serious tone of voice. Nickle glanced up from his plate. It was lunch-time --the pause that refreshes-the daily break in the office routine. Nickle had been enjoying the comparative peace of the club dining room. As he listened with half an ear to the easy conversation of his friend, his thoughts were vague and restful and his mind wandered outside in the Warm spring sun. The casual statement brought him back to earth. You know, John , he answered, Nearly everyone seems to believe in the power of the sub-conscious mind-I, on the contrary, never have and never shall. When I sleep I do not dream, I just black out for eight hours and wake up completely refreshed in the morning. Because of my ability to sleep so soundly I'm sure my health and vitality are better than those of the average man my age. And as for the subconscious mind, if there is such a thing, I never have felt its influence. Man, in my opinion, is controlled by his active mind and the thoughts of his own making which exist there. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Nonsense , John expostulated, of course you dreamg everyone does. The subconscious mind controls the brain while the body sleeps. Its thoughts register on your dormant being as dreams. Further than that, I believe the subconscious mind has a great influence on your life. It takes up the thoughts discarded by the so-called active part of your brain and turns them over while you sleep, relaying the result of its work to your conscious mind. Surely you have known yourself to wake up in the morn- ing with the solution to an apparently insurmountable problem all nicely worked out for you. My layman's ex- planation for that phenomenon is this: I think that the last thought on your active mind as you fall asleep is churned over by your subconscious mind all night until the subject is exhausted, or the solution to what may have been a tough problem is found. The subconscious mind is not limited by reality and as a result the most macabre dreams may result. There is, I think, a great power in the brain un- developed as yet in the normal person. Rats! came the decided reply of Nickle. Very well then, listen to this, I have often .... Soon a definite argument was in progress. It became loud and embittered, and when each returned to his office they were in very black moods. That afternoon a terrible thing happened to the broker- age firm over which Nickle presided. They faced bank- ruptcy. A scare in the market had resulted in the unload- ing of the shares of three different companies onto a mar- ket where no one would buy. The value of the shares dropped to nil and three companies faced collapse. com- panies backed by Nickle's brokerage office. As Nickle drove back to his home that evening his mind worked at a furious rate, seeking a solution to the plight of the firm. He was in an ugly mood as he entered the house, and his wife's tender concern over the worry she saw in his face and knew to be in his mind irritated him still further. He did not tell her of the disaster. His TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD two young daughters were quickly reduced to tears by his harshness, and fled to their mother for safety. Nickle studied the papers of the companies until mid- night, and then retired with vague plans to rectify the situation. As he fell asleep he was thinking-the three businesses needed nearly a million dollars to put them back on their feet. A bank loan could not be obtained, but Nickle was a wealthy man. He knew that, by employing the drastic measure of selling nearly all his possessions, he could raise the required sum. That would be the answer! But, he thought suddenly, what about my family? I must think of them, I can't sell my house .... of if only I did not have my wife and children to think about .... if I didn't have a family .... He awoke with a frightful start. Standing in his door- way was a figure, clad in black and strangely familiar to him. The spectre rised an arm and beckoned slowly. Mechanically, Nickle obeyed, a great fear clutching his heart, and went to the creature. The formless counten- ance under the black shroud seemed brown to him. Weak with terror, Nickle followed the figure to the room of his children. They lay in their tiny beds in the moon-lit roomg the blood from the great gashes in their throats soaked the pillows and slowly dripped to the floor. In great anguish, Nickle followed the figure to his wife's room, and found her to be dead from similar wounds. On the floor lay his old-fashioned razor, very bloody. A soft moan escaped his dry lips. Thoughts entered his numb brain and the truth was borne to him in spasms of remembrance. The power of the subconscious mind .... dreams . . . the solution to a problem . . . the answer to a puzzle .... he had no family . . . he could sell his house . . . . for now he was alone. His own hand had done the deed while his body, guided by his subconscious mind, walked in sleep through the quiet house. He saw what he now understood to be the malevolent ghost of his wife looking at him. Very slowly, guided by 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the black figure, he returned to his room. Everything possessed a dream-like quality and a heavy weight seemed to be pressing on him, keeping him prisoner, preventing his mind from working. He took his loaded pistol from the drawer and slowly raised it to his forehead .... -T. G. Brinckman, V Form. THE MESSENGER FROM HELL From a book of musty lore, There came, as I read by night, A ghoul from a distant shore Clothed in evil might. It rose as I turned the pages And hovered above my head, I cowered as I saw the countless ages This ghastly thing had been dead. It looked at me with a gaze That turned the heavens grey. And as I tried in terror to rise It gently began to sway. I saw in its flabby features, That one bright, shining eye, The souls of a million creatures Condemned one day to die. It showed to me in an instant The pain and torment of Hell And I heard in that tortured instant The toll of a distant bell. But as I gazed again At the light of the flickering fire, The apparition had vanished With the smoke of a funeral pyre. -W. M. Carroll, V Form. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 THE FICKLE SEA It never entered my mind, that bright January morn- ing, that the sea could possibly play such havoc with a ship as it did to ours, forty-eight hours later. It was a perfect morning .... the sun shone brightly down onto the Indian Ocean, through which we steamed at eight knots. There were a few birds about, for we were only fifty odd miles south of Madagascar, and the scraps from our galley proved a tasty dish to these creatures. The sea and sky were almost of the same colour, and it was hard to see where the one ended in the other. And yet, far off on the port bow, there was a slight darkening: and that was to prove our undoing. I was comfortably stretched out on Number 3 hatch, following with my eyes a bird that sailed in great circles about our after mast, yet not coming low enough to get lost in the hot fumes from our ftmnel. This state of bliss was not to last long, for I was shaken back to earth-or rather Number 3 hatch-by a loud hail from the chief Sparks . I saw he had a worried look on his face, and when I got to him and read the wireless message he hand- ed me, I saw why. It was from a ship three hundred miles further on, Warning us of a cyclone that was coming our way. We had been warned by the routine weather re- ports, of course, but this message told us that it was going to be far worse than We had expected. Being number two Sparks,', I climbed to the bridge as quickly as possible, and, finding the mate in the chart-room, handed him the message-slip. Forty-two hours later, the ship began to jump about. The sun was not yet risen, and would not appear for an- other four hours. I rolled out of my bunk with great re- luctance-for it was bitterly cold-and staggered up to re- lieve number one. It was cold even up in the radio cabin, but with the help of some coffee essence, I got through. There was a strange silence on the radio, but it was 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD quite different outside. The fury of the wind increased, and the ship staggered under the impact of the waves. I could tell that a lot of water was coming inboard. Now and then, above the shriek of the wind in the rigging, I could hear the faint clang of the aft bell as the half-hours dragged by. I could feel the tension in the air as the gal- lant ship fought her way away from the fatal storm centre, and all I could do was sit and listen, listen .... Just as dawn should have been breaking through, num- ber one came up with a very welcome flask of hot coffee. It was with a feeling of thankfulness that I got up to go, after warming myself with coffee. My first glimpse on getting into the open was one of a grey mass of water and bedraggled clouds. The tops of the waves were lashed by the wind, and stinging spray swept across the deck, while angry seas crashed into the sides of the ship. We rolled like a log. As I 'hung onto the companion-way rail, I think I must have uttered a silent prayer, for there was a gap in the flood on the deck, and, dashing through, I sought the safety of my cabin. I could not sleep. The noise was frightful. Every- thing in the cabin was doing a fandango. No sooner had the glasses stopped, than something rolled off the table. In despair, I lurched my way to the third's cabin. He was in the same state as I was, just relieved but unable to sleep. We sat and talked, and we were so engaged when our first misfortune struck us. The ship seemed to start up and lurch over. There was a great crash of crockery from the saloon, and a great noise of splintering wood from topsides. Throwing on our oilskins, we dashed in the direction of the crash-the boat slings. We could not see much through the spray and the semi-darkness, but what we could see gave me a queer feeling. One of the boats had gone, and the others on each side were badly damaged. We could do nothing but get under cover. The storm was a little worse by the time we tried to get breakfast. The wind was howling in the stays. and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 grey clouds hung all over the sky. Those of us not on watch kept warm and listened to the ship's throbbing as she tried to get away from the cyclone's centre. On going on Watch, I was told by number one that the main aerial had gone, and that the emergency was in use. My first duty was to call all ships and give the weather report that came from the bridge. I then saw to the life- boat equipment as routine order, but this time it had a grim meaning. At noon, the weather report came through- cyclone moving south-east-away from us. I nearly hugged the transmitter. We were safe. Even then I could feel the ship's motion ease. Yes, there were fewer pitches, and the gallant little ship was settling down to an easier motion. We could now take stock of our damage. Two boats gone and more damaged. The main aerial was a potential danger, as it was banging about like a live thing, and the end that was still up had to be lowered. Everything on deck was still full of water, but no hatch-covers had gone. Three days later we arrived at Port Louis in Mauritius in bright sun- light. -G. L. M. Mackenzie-Kennedy, VI Form. MY SUMMER What has the summer taught me? This question has been foremost in my mind since I returned after two months on a farm. Gradually, however, I have realized what an important job the farmer was doing and how little I had appreciated him. I had eaten milk and eggs at breakfast so many times as a matter of course that I knew very little and cared less about the farms from which they came. The most I had ever seen of a farm was the occasional, fleeting glimpse from a passing car or train. Like so many other people, I had come to take Canada's basic industry for granted. My two months changed all this. Now as I pass in a car 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD I see more than fields and barns, I picture overalled figures running tractors, driving teams, milking cows, all with the aim of producing the basis of all life: food. They accom- plish this, not with long assembly lines and intricate machines, but with the soil. During the summer I learned the meaning of the word work , I had always thought of work as some job, controlled by a union, with short working hours and good pay. There are no unions on a farm, the hours are long and the pay small, even though the work done by the farmer is probably the most important in the country. There is always work to be done on a farm, from early morning until evening, no matter what the weather con- ditions are. Even after I had retired, I often heard the ploughing being done by the light of the tractor's head- lamps. I learned that the rugby field is not the only place where team play is important. The threshing, where men from all the farms nearby congregate on one farm and help to Uthresh out the year's yield of wheat or oats, is a good illustration of team play. Many a time we travelled to another farm and they in turn came to ours, in order to be of some help. I learned to admire the farmer and not think of him only as someone who continually smoked a corn-cob pipe or frequented square dances. I admired him for working at a job in which a slight frost, a hailstorm, or a heavy wind would mean the loss of a year's income. I never realized what effect the weather really had on the farmer until I saw newly-seeded fields, covered with water or bil- lows of smoke rising from crops which had to be burned because they had rotted in excessive rain. I admired the ingenuity of the farmer which enabled him to do anything from fixing a broken tractor to painting the barn roof. I had always wondered why anyone would work in a job as uncertain as farming. There was always the ques- tion of whether the crops would turn out well, or whether TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 the machines would break down, thus causing delays when time was so precious. Even milk, soured on its way to the dairy, meant a few dollars less for the farmer's already frugal earnings. I think I learned part of the answer: an inherent love of the land, and of growing things. I learned what this love meant myself after watching Wheat grow from a few shoots that appeared above the moist earth to a Waving, golden field of ripe grain. I learned to love the outdoors as the farmer does, and I have many vivid memories of the cool morning breeze blowing softly against my face as I drove the cattle to the barn, or the hot sun beating down on my back as I helped load hay on the hay-rack. I enjoyed riding the binder as it cut row upon row from an oat field and tied the grain neatly in sheaves. I knew that the farmer's attachment to the land en- ables him to look on work as the means of building a farm he can be proud of--a farm with good crops, healthy live- stock, and attractive buildings. It is men such as these, who hewed a thriving country out of a Wilderness, and men such as these who will continue to be the backbone of the country, as long as a love of the land is in their hearts. -T.

REPORT OF THE ROYAL COMMISSION Dear Sir: In answer to your letter of October second, question- ing whether rooms at Trinity College School are fit for human habitation, I have drawn up the following report, which is a resume of my actions while delving into the sub- ject. It seems from my deductions that the rooms are most suitable quarters, but I am left in doubt as to whether the inhabitants may be placed under the classification of humans. As I think back on my first visit to a T.C.S. corridor, it greatly resembles the entrance of a modern Alice to a much stranger wonderland than Lewis Carroll ever por- trayed. Knowing little of boarding school customs I knock- ed upon the first door and was commanded to enter by a harsh medley of voices which did little to allay my fears. Walking timidly into a spacious room, fitted comfortably with leather chairs and a well worn chesterfield, I noticed the neat arrangement of the furniture rather than the occu- pants. Admittedly, when I was thrown over the back of a chair and told in no uncertain terms to keep quiet, I wondered a little, but having heard about school boy pranks, I held my peace and awaited results. However, when four battering rams performed a rear assault I realized that the Prefects' Study was not the place for me to begin my investigation. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 The following morning, while eating my breakfast from a standing position, I formed a plan of attack which seemed infallible. I would peer carefully into each window and examine only the chambers which were empty or whose occupants seemed inoffensive, always on the alert for those unfriendly lads with the massive implements which perform a duty which I had already encountered. Using my periscope to good advantage, I at last found my- self in an unoccupied room and proceeded to survey my surroundings. Pennants seemed to predominate, one of which, labelled B.S.S., held the position of honour above the door and caused me to hazard a guess that this school was the chief athletic rival of T.C.S. I soon realized from the intricately carved designs on the bird's-eye maple desks that this was truly a school of distinction, where each pupil was an artist in his own right. At that mo- ment, as I was viewing the pastel-shaded walls and beauty- rest mattresses on the beds, the sotmd of an electric razor came from the next room. Gentle hints to cease cascaded from the end of the corridor and as these were not heeded, there was the trample of little feet along the floor as the razor was confiscated and placed deep in the offender's throat. When the death rattle of the hopeful shaver had subsided I obeyed an impulse and opened one of the strong boxes which were placed under each well-made bed. I saw. at first glance, the owner's precious store of food, but then the door was flung open and, with foreboding cries, a horde of ominous youths entered with the obvious intention of tearing me apart. I found out that a school window is not large enough to accommodate a man's flying body. As a result of my harrowing experience at Trinity College School, my mind has been seriously affected and, having strangled my wife and children, I am now residing at Whitby, and therefore regret that I am forced to hand in my resignation from your investigating committee.

Archaeologists have unearthed a time capsule on the northern outskirts of the recently excavated city of Port Hope. Found a mile north of the Ganaraska River mouth, the cylinder is in- scribed with the words, T.C.S. - - 1997 . This writer was present at the opening of the capsule, which contains many interesting relics of life at that time. The following, re- printed in its entirety, is presumably a description of one side of school life at that time. Students of our own day will doubtless be most interested. A bell rings, for it is 10.30. Slowly and dejectedly the hard-working students of T.C.S. leave the classrooms. Many of them have tears streaming down their faces, for twenty long minutes will elapse before they will be per- mitted to return to their beloved studies. Butcdue to the foresight of the staff, their minds will shortly be turned from a state of unhappiness to one of unbounded joy, for that long twenty minutes will be taken up by a most de- lightful interlude, known as setting-up exercises. The turned down mouths turn upwards into happy smiles when this realization comes, and the ambling walk changes to a brisk military step. Out on the campus, before the classroom block, stands a tall, pleasant looking gentleman, whose bearded face is wreathed in smiles. Shouts of joy and admiration come from some five hundred mouths at the sight of this grand old gentleman, who has been carrying on this great T.C.S. tradition for some eighty years. These shouts how- ever quickly subside when this man gently waves his hand in disapprobation. With military precision the boys fall in. There follows an amazing exhibition of calisthenics as each movement is executed gracefully and with perfect timing. Occasionally, in his enthusiasm, a student may be un- able to refrain from whispering words of admiration to a TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 fellow, concerning the commanding figure who stands on a slightly raised hillock before them all. But this man is not touched by flattery. The erring boy is forced to leave the ranks, with several of his comrades aiding him on his way with gentle words of sympathy, as he takes a heart- rending good-bye of them, and walks disconsolately to- wards the J .S. Soon, however, these pleasant few minutes must come to an end. Upon the word of dismissal, all stand fast, with pleading eyes turned upon the stalwart figure before them, begging him to let them continue for a few minutes longer. He is, however, a shrewd judge of character, and bids them be on their way . -D. H. E. Cross, VI Form. 'IQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD f?lN1Ty. I S7 5 ll! SHORTS EDITORIAL Football is the key word of the fall term. Every boy in his final year hopes that he will make Bigside, and that perhaps this is the year that we beat Ridley! Mr. Hodgetts has conferences with the old colours about new plays he has devised at his football fand fishingl school in the north! Will the line have the drive and determination to play sixty minute football? Or, will the backfield be able to take advantage of the new rules? Only the games with Ridley, Upper Canada and Saint AndreW's will tell. In the pre-season games, we have beaten U.T.S. and Pickering. In these games the School played in and out ball: sometimes the attack would go well resulting in a score, and at other times, our defense was cracked. For the first time in history Bigside lost to Peterborough. The game was lost in the last half, when we lost the initative before a determined drive, after the School had built up a 12-1 lead. Of our rivals in the Little Big Four there have been many confusing reports. As Mr. Jarvis has been at an American coaching school, perhaps we will see the mighty T in action. While still on the subject of Upper Canada, can they really have three teams alternating in their games?

While nothing has been heard from St. Catherines, Ridley hasn't a Gray on the half line but they do seem to have an experienced heavy line. The Saints have another heavy team on which their hopes for a championship lie. Upper Canada should be the team to watch but they will have three determined rivals. However, Bigside isn't the only football team in the School. Middleside is split into two groups again this year, the C.O.S.S.A. team and the over 17's coached by Messrs. Armstrong and Key. On Littleside Mr. Hass has charge of the School's future stars. Carson and Wood are trying to teach the Littleside B players the fundamentals of Winning football. The other major sport of the term is soccer. While the standard of play seems to have dropped since the English boys have left, the enthusiasm still re- mains. Each day practices are held for the three teams under the guidance of Messrs. Bagley and Dening. Play up T.C.S., play the game hard and fast. --R.H.G. f A I ' 3911+-a f ' V g? wry ' s y 1 A' K if Q -K 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. At Port Hope, September 26, 1947: Won 18-6 Bigside, starting the season well, defeated U.T.S. 18-6. The play was very loose in spots but since it was their Hrst game, the School performed creditably. We held a definite edge in the first quarterg and our constant attack was re- warded when a Rogers to Tessier pass brought us to our opponents' five-yard line where Bruce bucked over for a major score which was converted by Rogers. As the second quarter started, Rogers made a beautiful forty yard rim before he was finally downed on the opponents' twenty. Two plunges by Bruce gave us a first down. Then Rogers crashed over for our second touch, which he converted. The rest of the half featured a U.T.S. passing attack which our defense was equal to, and the half ended without any further scoring. Striking early in the second half, a Rogers to Tessier pass again set the scene for Bruce to score his second touchdown, again converted by Rogers. U.T.S. then came to life, running the ball from mid-field to our goal-line where Vernon bucked over for a touch, converted by Pon- ton. The Toronto lads dominated the play for the remainder of the game, and only timely interceptions by McIntyre and Thompson prevented our line from being crossed again. Vernon and Robertson were the best for U.T.S., while Alley, Hall and Rogers were outstanding for the victors. T.C.S.-Bruce, McIntyre, Gaimt, Rogers, Goodbody, Tessier. Goering, Emery, Hall, Alley, Thompson, Boulden, Maclaren, Hughes, Vernon, Lawson, Brodeur, Drynan, Dignam, McGregor, Timmins, Stratford, Conyers and Fullerton. i1 -1 SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Port Hope, October 2, 1947: Won 18-11 In a close and thrilling game, the School made it two in a row as they defeated Pickering College 18-11. Miss- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 ing several of their starting line-up, T.C.S. used passing to good effect in their well-deserved victory. The game opened with Pickering getting a touchdown in the first five minutes of play. This score was due to a T.C.S. fumble on their own fifteen yard line which was re- covered by Pickering who plunged over. Ault converted his own touch. The School came back on passes by Rogers to Boulden and Goodbody, the latter going over to climax the attack. Rogers converted to tie the score at 6-6. Again T.C.S. marched down the field on passes by Rogers to Tessier and Boulden, who made it another for the School, Rogers getting his second successful convert. For the re- mainder of the half, play surged back and forth with the score remaining at 12-6 for Trinity. At the start of the third quarter, Pickering showed renewed drive and made long gains on passes by Ault, who passed to Hutchison over the line. The convert failed, leaving T.C.S. in the lead by one point. Until the final mo- ments of the game, the outcome was always in doubt. However, with one second to go, Tessier ran over for a touchdown. This was converted by Gaunt and the game closed with the score 18-11 in favour of the School. Rogers, Tessier and Alley were best for Trinity, while Ault played Well for the losers. T.C.S.-Bruce CCa.pt.J, McIntyre, Gaunt, Tessier, Alley, Rogers, Emery, Goodbody, Boulden, Goering, Lawson, Drynan, McPherson, Hughes, Fullerton, Maclaren, Fulford, Stratford, Brodeur, Dignam, McGregor, Conyers, Pilcher and Vernon. SCHOOL VS. P.C.V.I. At Peterborough, October 5, 1947: Lost 16-12 In their third game of the season, the injury-riddled first team lost a close game to Peterborough, 16-12. Trinity kicked off, but Peterborough marched up the field and although failing to score, dominated the play in the first quarter, with Rogers' kicking keeping the School 74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD out of danger. Peterborough started off the second quar- ter with McKee kicking to the deadline. However, after they intercepted a pass, Gaunt picked up a fumble and Trinity rolled down the field with Drynan going over for a major, which Rogers converted. In the closing minutes, Peterborough again intercepted a pass and were pressing as the whistle blew to end the half. Soon after the opening of the second half, Rogers kicked to the deadline and a Rogers to Vernon pass clicked for a touchdown, which was not converted, thus giving the School a 12-1 lead. Soon Peterborough rallied and finally scored a touchdown on a long pass from Green to Sisson which Green converted. The rest of the period saw both teams fighting hard, but neither gained preceptibly. Mid- way in the final quarter, Peterborough marched down the field as the School seemed to collapse, and Thompson plunged over for a score, with Green converting. This put P.C.V.I. ahead 13-12. On the kick-off, Green recovered, and they again marched down the field. However, the line tightened and Peterborough were only able to score a place- ment kicked by Green. Then Trinity took to the air. With only one minute to go, two passes were completed to the Peterborough thirty-five yard line, but the game was over before the team could score. Sisson's brilliant open field running, combined with Thompson's plunging and Green's kicking and passing, proved effective for Peterborough, while Stratford's fine defensive play, Rogers' running, kicking and passing, and the steady play of Alley, Bruce and Gaunt shone for the School. T.C.S.-Bruce CCapt.J, McIntyre, Gaunt, Rogers, Dignam, Tes- sier, Vernon, Hall, Emery, Stratford, Alley, Maclareng alternates: Drynan, Goodbody, Pilcher, Goering, Conyers, McPherson, Fuller- ton, Timmins, Lawson i, McGregor i and Fulford. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 75 SCHOOL vs. MALVERN At Port Hope, October 11: Lost 30-18 In the best exhibition game before the Little Big Four Championships, T.C.S. was defeated by Malvern 30 to 18. Both teams played a Wide open high-scoring game, with the score remaining close until the final quarter. In the first quarter, the play was even with the ball staying, for the most part, near centre field. T.C.S., how- ever, managed to score two rouges to one for Malvern. Play remained even in the second period until Sillers of Malvern raced fifty yards for a converted major. The School then drove down the field, Drynan finally carrying the ball for an unconverted touch, but Malvern fought back, managing to score another converted touchdown in the last seconds of the half, putting them in the lead 13 to 7. Rigby opened the second half with a brilliant seventy yard run back from the kickoff for a converted major, thus increasing Malvern's lead. But T.C.S. played with renew- ed vigour, and Tessier finally scored on a reverse play which Rogers converted. Seven minutes later T.C.S. scored another major which was not converted, leaving the School behind 19-18. For the rest of the game Mal- vern dominated the play scoring eleven points in the last ten minutes. At this point it is customary to pick the stars of the game. This is very hard because both teams ,worked as a unit and all players starred. However, the cool head and hard hitting of Gaunt at quarter and the drive of Tessier should be noted for Trinity. The running of Sillers and Rigby was exceptional on the Malvern team. SCHOOL vs. OLD BOYS At Port Hope, October 13: Lost 25-5 A heavy and powerful team of Old Boys came back to play the School on Thanksgiving. The School was not quite up to strength as six or seven regulars were not playing. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At three o'clock the Old Boys kicked off, put out their cigarettes, and charged down the field to make the tackle. Brewer, back to his old tricks, dominated the early play with a single and a touchdown. The School tried hard but a constant flow of subs for the Old Boys, not to mention weight and experience, had its effect. Though the School forced the Old Boys deep into their end and almost scored a point, Brewer ran back the kick 115 yards for another touch, making the score, Brewer-12, School 0. Rosey LeMesurier threw a pass to Howard for the convert. The School played with renewed drive after recovering a fumble of the Old Boys and Drynan finally carried the ball over for the School to make the score thirteen to five at half time. After a pause that was very refreshing fespecially to the Old Boysl, both teams staggered on to the field to re- new the battle. Stick McMurrich, seen in a new role as bucking half, plunged over for a major score. The con- vert was goo-d for the point. To11y Wells, feeling that it was time to fool the School, jumped on the shoulders of a husky lineman, pulled a pass out of the blue and moved on until his horse was tackled. This was followed by a Dago Speirs to Stal Armstrong pass with a lateral out to Beament, who ran from mid-field for a touch to end the scoring 25-5. In the last quarter two Old Boy teams played each other and many novel and unorthodox plays were seen. There was no score although the team of '45-'46 were deep in their opponents' end many times. All the Old Boys played well individually, though special mention should be made of Armstrong who seemed to know the School signals exceptionally well! Old Boys-Sinclair, Ed. Huycke, Fred Huycke, Britton, Bea.- ment, Gilbert, Speirs, Howard, Armstrong, LeSueur, Saunderson, McMurrich, LeMesurier, Lawson, Wells, Taylor, Brewer, Stewart, Hyde, Rickaby, Pangman, Campbell, Austin, Newcomb, Bird.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 MIDDLESIDE C.O.S.S.A. GAMES The Middleside C.O.S.S.A. team is being coached again by Mr. Armstrong. They got off to a good start by winning three games and losing one. Wilson has been elected captain while Wood ii is vice-captain. In their first league game of the season on September 27, the under 17 team was edged 11-6 by the Cobourg Collegiate team. T.C.S. kicked off and the play was even until Cobourg blocked a kick. However, Middleside made a strong come-back after a Cobourg completed pass, by holding the opponents for three downs on our five yard line. During the second quarter, Medhurst for Cobourg finally scored an unconverted touchdown. T.C.S. again took the initiative but after a gain due to a Hoffman to Moffit pass, an intercepted forward was run fifty yards to our twenty yeard line. In the second half, T.C.S. again kicked off and recovered. Then a thirty yard pass from Hoffman to Wilson put us in a position where Wood scored a rouge. Cobourg again intercepted a pass and quickly scored a rouge. Towards the end of the game, Medhurst again scored an unconverted major. T.C.S. made a last minute drive down the field and Hoffman bucked over for five points. Medhurst was outstanding for the victors while Hoffman and Scowen played well for T.C.S. 1iiQ On October 1, the team played an exhibition game with Port Hope. Running plays almost at will, Middle- side ran up a twenty-three to nothing victory. The team worked well as a unit, Well deserving their win. In a well played game on a warmish autumn day, T.C.S. drove to a 6-1 victory over aheavier Oshawa C.O.S. 78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD S.A. team. The School won on general superiority. T.C.S. started fast and early in the first quarter, Wood kicked a point for the School. Oshawa drove back but were unable to score due to good work on the T.C.S. line. In the second quarter, Hoffman heaved a long pass to Wilson who raced deep into O.C.V.I. territory from where Thompson went over for a touchdown. The convert failed. Play slowed down considerably in the second half, Oshawa getting a point on a kick in the third quarter. The visitors then took to the air with Lawrence passing effectively but T.C.S. counteracted these gains through good running. Wilson, Thompson, Scowen and Austin played well for Trinity, while Auld was best for the losers. -.1i- On October 11, Middleside went up to Toronto to play Appleby Seconds. In a poor game Middleside capitalized on fumbles to win 21-17, scoring twice in the first quarter in this way. Although outweighed, Appleby was not out- fought, even having an edge in tackling. In the second half both teams improved, with T.C.S. having more of the play, winning by a touchdown margin. i - MIDDLESIDE OVER 1'7'S Mr. Key has once again become a member of the Coaching Staff . Under his able guidance the Over 17's have greatly improved since the beginning of the season. Wismer has been elected captain of the team and Harvie i is vice-captain. In their first game of the season on October 2, the School's over 17 Middleside team defeated Pickering Col- lege Seconds by a score of 8-7. As the score indicates, the game was close and exciting with the outcome in doubt until the last play. T.C.S. took the lead in the first quar- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 ter, driving deep into Pickering territory to score twice on kicks by Wismer. Pickering came back strongly in the second quarter, but T.C.S. managed to hold them until half time. From the kick-off the Pickering team pressed hard, and a T.C.S. fumble on their own ten yard line gave them the break that they needed. A quick pass went for a touchdown, the convert was good, and the score stood at 6-2 for Pickering. In the third quarter, Wood crossed the line for a touchdown which he also converted. Though Trinity was hemmed well within their own end of the field, Pickering failed to score until the last play of the game when they kicked a single. Cannon was a standout for the visitors, while Wood and Harvie in the backfield and Scowen on the line played well for Trinity. Playing against a vastly superior team, Middleside went down to a crushing 53-7 defeat at the hands of the U.C.C. second team at Port Hope on October 4. The visitors' constant attack broke Middleside's spirit, and their opponents seemed able to score almost at will. Trinity's only touchdown came in the first quarter when de Pencier caught a pass from Wismer behind the U.C.C. line. Wismer converted and later kicked a single which finished our scoring, but from here on it was all U.C.C. Mathers, Meredith and Katzenstein each scored twice while Orr's passing was another constant U.C.C. scoring threat. St. Andrew's College Thirds defeated T.C.S. Middle- side at Aurora on October 8 by the score of 23-0. Wans- borough opened the game by running over for a major which he converted. The School tried hard but never seemed to be able to score. In the second quarter, Fran- ceschini plunged over for a major which he also converted. He also scored again in the third quarter, this time another major which he failed to convert. Wansborough then toss- ed a pass which went for a touchdown for the S.A.C. team. 80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD This ended the scoring for the game. Although the School was always under constant attack, they never gave up and played hard until the end. T.C.S. was soundly trounced 34-0 in their first meet- ing with their traditional rivals, the Grove, on October 10 at Port Hope. Trinity could not seem to get their oEen- sive rolling, although they did show good rugby at times. Lakefield started fast and scored on two long passes by Reive, the second touch being converted. Another short pass was good for a major and with its convert, left the score 17-0 at the end of the first quarter. The ball then travelled back and forth, but was rarely out of T.C.S. territory. In the last quarter the visitors broke loose again, scoring touches on a pass and a run by Reive, both of which were converted. The Grove then intercepted a Trinity pass and bucked over for a touch on the next play. Reive was outstanding for the Grove, While Scowen was a bright spot in a generally dull Trinity team. LITTLESIDE Mr. Hass is coach again this year. Ashton has been elected captain and Ketchum ii vice-captain. Littleside B under the direction of R. Wood has played several games with the J.S. LITTLESIDE vs. U.C.C. At Port Hope, October 4: Lost 3-1 In its initial game of the season, Littleside was de- feated by a strong U.C.C. team, 3-1. It was a very evenly contested match with play see-sawing from one end of the field to the other. Upper Canada drew first blood when they managed to get close enough to kick a single. T.C.S. finally got that one back in the fourth quarter when Bon- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 81 gard hoisted a long one. Upper Canada, however, re- taliated with an aerial attack which moved them into posi- tion and Willemson kicked two more points to end the scoring. Ketchum as quarterback played well for Trinity and Bongard's kicking was good. Southam also played Well. For U.C.C. Stephens' line plunges and bucking stood out. LITTLESIDE vs. S.A.C. At Aurora, October 8: Won 13-8 Trinity College School Littleside defeated St. Andrew's College, 13-8. Powter, for St. Andrew's, scored the first touch, Moore converting. Moore put the Saints further ahead with a kick to the deadline and a safety. T.C.S. got back into the game in the second frame on a touchdown by McRae With Southam converting. In the third quarter, T.C.S. took the lead on a touchdown by Ash- ton. The convert attempt failed. Bongard rounded out the scoring for T.C.S. with a safety in the last quarter. : Htl Q39 . - f' XV , . 5 Yli?g,1...y 1 - XS! W ., ffff' ,Q 9 fd ,ff Jigs if - L.. .... X Nfl X1 X is ... .

At Toronto, October 4: Lost 4-0 In the first game of the season, which took place at U.C.C., T.C.S. was beaten by a score of 4-0. In the first half of the game, both teams looked very much the same with neither team getting many shots on goal. In the second half, however, U.C.C. began to click and from then on they had the best of the play. T.C.S. would have done much better if they had been able to get away more shots on goal but they seemed unable to get the range. The marksmen for U.C.C. were Gurr, Rowan and Andison who scored two.

Each team TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 83 contributed nine goals, but unfortunately four of the Mas- ter's nine were scored against themselves. Mr. Knight was really the spearhead of the School attack as he slipped three shots past Mr. Lewis who played in goal. In the first half Bigside made the score 5-2 in their favour, on goals by Cox 123, Snowdon C21 and Spencer, while Mr. Gwynne-Timothy and Mr. Bagley each got one for the Masters. At the start of the second half it was evident that the Masters had slowed down considerably in their play. The goal-getters for the School in this half were Cox and Snowdon with two apiece, while Bronfman, Cooper Mackenzie-Kennedy and Kingman each scored one. For the Masters, Mr. Gwynne-Timothy scored two and Mr. Morris, an import from the Junior School, got the other. The play during the second half was featured by the goal-keeping of Mr. Lewis who was dressed in his best clothes for the occasion while Mr. Knight broke up several plays by the clever use of his hands. Cox and Snowdon were the most effective for the School, while Mr. Gwynne-Timothy and Mr. Bagley stood out for the Masters. Masters-Messrs. Lewis, Hett, Knight, Humble, Dening, Dale, Gwynne-Timothy, Morris, Bagley, Watts and Merry. School-Sweny, Bogue, Burland, Rogers ii, Bronfman, Kingman. Snowdon.

Middleside lost their opening game of the season 5-3, to a faster Upper Canada eleven at Port Hope on October 4. The School started poorly with U.C.C. drawing first blood on a rebound, Codouniz scoring the counter. 84 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD However, Trinity came back in the latter part of the first half, scoring on counters from Merry and Macklem to make it 3-1. The College came back hard in the last half on two goals by Jameson who tied the score. The School rallied but were unable to stop the U.C.C. eleven and Godouniz scored two goals. For the visitors, Codouniz and Jameson were the best. Macklem i and Merry were the School's best. U LITTLESIDE Mr. Dening is coaching Littleside and Cooper iii has been elected captain and Church vice-captain this year. In their first game of the year on September 27, a team made up of fourteen year-olds met Peterborough Juveniles at Peterborough. Although the School dropped the game 3-1, Littleside showed speed and considerable promise. The more experienced Peterborough team took an early lead and held it all the way. The School's lone goal was scored by Church on a pass from Cooper iii. For the School, Cooper iii and Church were standouts. 1 A minute but speedy Peterborough team took an easy 3-1 win from Littleside at Port Hope on October 11. Peter- borough passed well and generally outclassed an older and larger School team. Wills got the School's goal. Peter- borough played well as a team while Hughes was best for the School. .11 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 85 NEW BOYS' RACE October 13 The annual New Boys' Race, part of the competition for the Magee Cup, was won by Pierce, followed by Ro- barts and Lawson i.

At the moment we have little of vast import to record. This year's crop of New Boys seems to be settling in quickly and well and at the time of writing they already seem to be very much at home. We welcome them to the School and hope that they will en- joy and profit by their time with us. Our thoughts and all good wishes go with our Old Boys, who are starting their career in the Senior School. May every success be theirs. In spite of rather threatening weather we managed to have our annual Fall picnic at Sylvan Glen. As usual Mrs. Crowe and her staff provided us with plentiful supplies of food which all members of the School cooked to their own taste. We are looking forward to a series of practice scrim- mages with Littleside B again this year. The two first games have been played in an excellent spirit and have provided great enjoyment and experience for both sides. ATHLETICS Rugby Captain-R. M. McDerment. Vice-Captain-K. H. Wright. It is a little early to predict just how the rugby squad will acquit itself this season, but we have every reason to feel confident that they should be able to give a good account of themselves. Once again we are starting the team off practically from scratch. Our new quarterback has shown promise in our pre-season scrimmages and various other players are improving rapidly. The team is quite a bit lighter on the average than last year's squad, but should be able to de- velop into a fast-moving squad. 88 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Games have been arranged with Lakefield, S.A.C., U.C.C., and Ridley. Soccer Captain-A. C. Brewer. Vice-Captain-J. C. Cooper. Prospects for a good soccer team are bright this year. Although only two Old Colours are available, there is an excellent crop of new material. Games have been arranged with Lakefield and U.C.C. THE NIGHT Velvet is not softer than this, the night, Nor does the kingdom of the sea, o'ergrown With forests of strange foliage glitt'ring bright, Possess that more silent majesty known In heav'n and earth, with quietness so deep, With darkness so profound. The houses seem Like jutting rocks against dark sky, asleepg Each rock housing its own personal dream. The silv'ry crescent sinks beneath the hills. The stars o'erhead now only light still skies Which now show faint but blossoming streaks. Chills Of the dawn begin to warm. The beauties Of morning come. The night must now depart. But when Sun has journeyed once, night will start. -R. J. Anderson, Form IIAI. OORMORAN T FISHING On clear, moonless nights from the middle of May to the middle of October a curious method of fishing takes place in the Nagara River on the main island of Japan. This Way of catching fish is thought to have originated in China and to have been introduced into Japan about a thousand years ago. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 89 Flat-bottomed boats with curved prows are used. The birds are large cormorants, trained for the work, which they seem to enjoy in spite of the fact that a metal ring is fastened round the base of their long necks preventing them from swallowing any but the smallest of the speckled trout they catch. The crew consists of four men. One guides the boat down the swift-flowing, shallow river. Another tends a wood fire in a large iron basket hung from the prow, the flames from which attract the fish near the boat where the cormorants can catch them. The other two fishermen take care of the cormorants which they hold by means of fine rope which is attached on to a harness on the birds. Each man controls about fourteen of the diving, swimming, squawking cormorants, skillfully preventing the ropes from getting tangled. He also empties the catch unharmed by gently pressing upward on the bird's throat. Each bird has his own place in the boat according to age and jealously guards his position. The fishermen wear straw raincoats and little pointed caps of ancient design. The first fish of the season is given to the Emperor. -C. O. Spencer, Form IIAI. - WHY I HATED T0 LEAVE I hated to leave my home One hundred miles away, I hated to leave the meadows They were so pleasant and gay, I hated to leave my friends They were so nice and kind, But now I'l1 have to make new ones And keep the others in the back of my mind. I hated to leave my father So very far behind, I hated to leave my brother '90 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Whose toys I used to find, And worst of all my mother Who used to tuck me in bed With those few kindly words, Good-night, sleepy head . -T. O'B. Cowan, Form IA. SALMON FISHING Salmon fishing is the sport of kings! Unless you own at least half a mile of river, you have to pay tremendous sums to use a good pool or an excellent piece of river Knot including guides, boats and other such costsj. Salmon fishing is done with a split bamboo fly rod nine to ten feet in length and weighing five or six ounces. The weight of the fly reel varies but it must hold a hun- dred yards of line if you want to hold a salmon on it when he takes a long run. The leader is usually five or six feet in length and made out of transparent gut fwhich may be dyed to the colour of the waterj. Salmon flies vary from smaller than your little fingernail to four or five inches in length and they may be wet or dry flies. A wet fly is sup- posed to be manoeuvred along under the surface so that it looks like a minnow. On the other hand, a dry fly must float on the top and represent a nymph or some other fly. The rivers are usually swift-flowing and are very cold. They are so clear that sometimes you can see the salmon six or seven feet below the surface lazily fanning the water with their tails and paying no attention to your lure. When they are hungry or feel inclined to they will swim lazily up to your fly with an open mouth and then you feel as though there were a ton of bricks on the line. Your reel screams and you're off to the races! --S. E. Woods, Form IIA. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 91 BOGOTA Bogota is in Colombia, South America. There is no beach to go to there. The city is fairly big and fortunately you can find your way around quite easily. There are several parks and one of them has a carnival in it all the year round. There are two main streets called Seventh Street and Thirteenth Street. Seventh Street has only traffic but Thirteenth Street has Street cars as well. The traffic is bad in Bogota. It is a well ordered city and there are few street lights. There is a bull fighting stadium. Every year some of the most famous bullfighters come and fight there. We have some movie theatres but they are not much good. Bogota was planned as a small city. It was built near the mountains Where it could not grow too big. The mountains are on one side and a small lake on the other. There is a waterfall just outside of Bogota, it is called Tequendamo. There is a hotel right across from the Waterfall. If you go down about 5,000 feet, you get to farm lands. Some of the people of Bogota go there, you can go by car or train. Bogota is cold but there is little Snow in the winters, only hail. -R. W.

A MID-JULY MORNING As the sun peeped from behind the lovely hills and began to climb upwards, flooding the world with light, the forest was suddenly stirred to life. A saucy chipmunk climbed out of his home in a cranny under a pile of rocks where he had slept during the night and, with a cheeky flirt of his striped tail, climbed to the top of his rock pile, puffed out his little cheeks and sent a long chirrr to- wards the rising sun. Then, after washing his face with his small human-like paws, he climbed down and began searching for maple seeds. A big brown rabbit hopped slowly by, his great long ears waving to and fro ready to detect in an instant any tell-tale rustlings which would notify him of danger. He sat up on his large, powerful hind legs, his sensitive nose working up and down as he sniffed the light breeze which brought to him the fragrance of the forest. Suddenly he stiffened peering around him, his great, round, bulging eyes, filled with terror. A minute later a Weasel loped out of the dense bushes, his nose on the rabbit's trail. He did not notice the striped chipmunk who, at his approach, had darted into his hole, chattering shrilly. By now the deer had long since hidden for the day and were dozing through the humid heat. The pheasants were wandering about quietly under the bushes scratching for grubs or patiently sitting on their nests waiting for the eggs to hatch. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The red squirrels were chasing each other chatteringly through the tree-tops making daring leaps from branch to branch, or jumping twenty feet to the soft covering of pine needles on the ground, their huge tails acting as para- chutes. The wood pigeons, dozing sleepily on their perches, were uttering their monotonous call. Above it all, his great white neck and head out-stretched, his fiery golden-yellow eyes searching the ground below for his prey, was a great eagle, circling round and round, ever higher in the clear, blue sky, as he surveyed his domain. -E.

OLD BOYS IN EUROPE Toby Johnston, Pat Black and Susie Ketchum were with the McGill group which toured Europe this past sum- mer and spent many weeks behind the iron curtain . They visited France, Switzerland, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Yugo- slavia and Africa. In Prague they spent two weeks mixing with thou- sands of students from all over the world attending the Youth Festival. Then they went on to Yugoslavia where they worked for five weeks on a railway construction pro- ject. Their hours were from four a.m. until noon and they started their day on a slice of black bread and some turkish coffee. Milk was never seen in Europe. Despite the starvation diet and the heavy work they valued their ex- periences, particularly the opportunity they had of meet- ing and knowing youth from Balkan countries. There is no doubt about the Russian influence, they say, but the cheerful Way in which these thousands of young people spend their holidays repairing German depredations, with no pay, impressed the Canadians. They sing morning, noon and night, and in their off hours they have folk dancing and concerts. The Canadians were often asked what the youth did in their country and it was difficult to give a specific reply. At a sports meeting, the Canadian girls in the party won the basketball tournament, to the great enthusiasm of all the spectators from every European country. 106 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Among the Old Boys noticed at the School for the Thanksgiving Week-end were:- Frank Stone C22-'27J, Ian Campbell C42-'47'J, Nels Stewart C38-'44J, Bunny Austin C43-'463, Jim McMur- rich C42-'46J, Hubie Sinclair C42-'46J, Donald Saunder- son C40-'44J, George Robarts C42-'45J, John David Thompson U39-'47J, John Rickaby C44-'47J, Kent New- comb C44-'47J, Donald Hogarth C38-'46J, John Beament C37-'44J, Bill Brewer C43-'47J, Eric Cochran C28-'35J, Peter Britton C37-'44J, Douglas Campbell C43-'47J, Shan- non Sanborn V43-'47J, Peter Bird C43-'45l, George T.

EDITORIAL Now that football is over we turn our minds to other things, and one notices at this time a general reorganiza- tion of the clubs in the School. One need only glance through this issue of the Record to realize it. To the casual reader of the School Calendar it would seem that T.C.S. is virtually abounding with all types of clubs, such as the French and Spanish Conversation Clubs, the Literary Club, the Gun Club and the Science Club. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Some of these are now defunct, having fallen into oblivion in recent years, but others are flourishing. There is a Dramatic Society which produces a full dress play and gives several short skits each year, as well as studying the general aspect of the theatre. This year the Political Science Club, which discusses matters of national and inter- national significance, is being reorganized after a year's suspension, and has adopted as a study theme for this year the political parties of Canada. Then there is the De- bating Club, reconstituted this year with the purpose of improving the standard of debating in the School. There are besides, the Billiard Club and the Camera Club with their adherents. Clubs occupy an important place in School life. They strengthen fellowship by uniting the members in a common aim. They increase our appreciation of culture. and one might almost say they are even more educational, as well as being more interesting, than classes. Some, such as the Camera Club and the Billiard Club, provide recreation for boys in their off hours Cfew as they arell. There are several notable features of the clubs at T.C.S. Let us examine, for example, the claim that is often made, that there is very little time left for extra- curricular activities after sports and study have received their allotment. In fact. so true is this statement, that most of these clubs are not organized until after the foot- ball season. Yet surprisingly enough, if one examines the lists of members, one finds that they are composed of the people with the least spare time. This leads to another observation: that most of the members belong to more than one club, and the total membership of the Dramatic, Debating, and Political Science Clubs comprises forty boys, only twenty percent. of the School. This is sometimes blamed on the clubs by accusing them of being too ex- clusive, but it must be remembered that if they were too big they would be awkward and unwieldy. If there was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 sufficient interest two sections of a club could be formed as is often done in high schools. It is the interest, especial- ly in the lower forms, that is lacking. The membership iigures look much better when one considers that most of the boys are from the upper forms. New boys, I suppose, are busy acclimatizing themselves, and the others either don't seem to be interested until they are in the upper forms, or feel that they haven't got the time . To them I would say, and I know members of these clubs would support me, there are few better ways to spend spare time. -R.L.W. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Mr. Editor: In perusing the October issue of the Record I am im- pressed by the morbid character of the fictional contribu- tions. Is this typical of the boys of T.C.S.'? It is to be suspected that such boys are suffering from frustrations, repressions, or other mental strains, in short, that they are not happy. Are the boys of T.C.S. happy? Do they lead the jolly, carefree life so essential to the development of Canadian youth? Perhaps more care should be taken to insure their happiness. Whenever a boy is seen to be retiring to his dim chamber to write morbid stories, he should be made to feel the joy and laughter in life. I sug- gest an hour or two of supervised laughter, followed pos- sibly by seclusion in a specially prepared Being Happy room, from which the offender would be released only after demonstrating satisfactorily that he was no longer gloomy and had discovered the happiness in life. Investi- gation into the causes of unhappiness reveals the need for gloom preventatives. Possibly happiness pills could be taken after fagging, for new boys, after detention, for those who spend so much time at this pastime, and after meals, for all. Certainly something must be done. I shall 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD be looking forward in the next issue to stories full of the effervescent enthusiasm and bubbling mirth of the happy T.C.S. youth.

Crisall, who was the visiting Preacher for our evening service, delivered a sermon on the great sin of indifference. He pointed out that Jesus regarded this sin among the worst which people can commit. To prove this Mr. Crisall cited several parables told by the Lord, such as the good Samaritan , and Dives and the beggar in which Jesus severely condemned indifference. He then went about explaining why the Lord was so in- sistent that this sin should be purged, by showing that under such conditions our religion will become a negative religion which would give it no value whatsoever to man- kind. He then told us what a positive religion would en- tail. We, as Christians, must show a good example to the rest of the world. Our attitude to life must be designed to bring life and vitality to an insipid world. We must practise the positive side of brotherhood, not only by 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD words, but by actions as well. We must love those who hate us and thus melt their hate to form friendships. Finallj,' we must completely dedicate ourselvesto our re- ligion and to our God. As the Bible says of Christians. Ye are the salt of the earth g therefore We must make life worthwhile to all, tie the bonds of brotherhood even closer, and fully dedicate our lives to the Lord to live up fully to our aims and beliefs. x Church Union Sunday, November 2 The Rev. W. W. Judd, the visiting preacher for our evening service, told us of the movement of the World Council of Churches, an organization of Protestant Churches of the world, and their aim of attaining a World- wide union of churches. This idea is not a recent one, for the Christians of Antioch were the first to bring it forth and the later Roman Christians followed this plan. The organization held meetings before the war and intends to hold another meeting this year. It did much to help the downtrodden during the war, by helping to take care of refugees, providing money for poverty-stricken countries to get back on their feet, and finally by keeping in contact with the Christians of the occupied countries of Europe. Dr. Judd then asked the following question, What should we expect from a world-wide church ? He answered this question by these three statements: Service to our fellow man, greater understanding among all nations and a more active bond of brotherhood among all racesg and help to triumph over political dissension and thus to hasten the real advent of peace. He described the essence of Chris- tianity as Christ being the centre of our worship and thinking. Dr. Judd in concluding told us that the chal- lenge of today was devotion to, and the following of Christ, and only if we did so could We expect the glory of Christ on earth as it is in heaven. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 'I fWe are proud to remember that an Old Boy of T.C.S. and a former Master, the late Bishop C. H. Brent, was the leading spirit in the movement for a world council of churches and church union.J The Leader Sunday, November 16 On the first Sunday following the half-term break Mr. V. C. Wansbrough, the former headmaster of Lower Canada College, spoke to the boys in evening chapel about what distinguishes a leader from an average person, be- cause these present years might easily form the char- acteristics which spell one or the other of these two types. In order to solve this question, Mr. Wansbrough used the example of that wonderful motion picture Henry V in which acting at its best may be enjoyed, fine language and speech heard, accompanied by action at Agincourt un- parallelled in excitement. Painting for us a vivid scene of Henry, the dynamic leader, standing calm and resolute with raised sword before the English army, our visitor portray- ed by reference to Shakespeare's words the attainment of these qualities by a youth who was once wild and irrespon- sible. Illustrating the remoulding of Henry's character by this quotation: Consideration like an angel came, and whipp'd the offending Adam out of him , Mr. Wansbr- ough explained that we too may overcome our poorer traits by acting with consideration and thoughtfuhiess, for our present actions can easily mould our later life. The magni- ficent Words of our most beloved wartime leader, Winston Churchill, spoken while visiting the boys at Harrow, brought a close to a very inspiring sermon: You must never despair of your country's glory and never cease to labour for its increasing fame . . b Wx N ag. y 3 y f i 25' W W I Gfhnughis nf Qlhristmas 'u N 'Q Christmas--The snow-bound lethargy of a - Winter night, 1, The burning mystery of a distant light In the diamond-studded vault of space. 4' av? , Q .v .

Bagley preached, basing his sermon on some of the thoughts he had while listening to the broadcast of the royal Wedding. He told us about the people of Britain. and their reactions to this event. He told us some- thing of their traditions, and their joy in common things, and their lack of love of glory. From here the Chaplain moved on to talk about the Church's integral part in man's daily life. Mr. Bagley then concluded by telling us of the joy which we should all have for simple things. iiQ1n This term gifts of flowers for the Altar have been made by Mr. and Mrs. C. Scott, M1-. and Mrs. A.

This generous and thoughtful gift enables many boys to learn the game. C 3 I if If Mrs. John Macdonell has sent a T.C.S. cushion cover and sports clothing to the School. Mrs. Greta Whitton has given to the Port Hope Guild, who in turn have given it to the School, a Prayer Book of King Edward VII. The book is beautifully designed, print- ed on special paper, and illustrated. It was specially bound andilluminated for the Rev. Herbert Symonds, M.A., D.D., Mrs. Whitton's father and Headmaster of T.C.S. 1901-1903. THE T.C.S. AIR CADET CORPS A year ago the R.C.A.F. proposed that the T.C.S. Cadet Corps should become an Air Cadet Corps. The Army also intimated that it would soon be necessary to decide between the Army and the Air Force, and in October word came from the Army district headquarters in Kingston that the decision must be made before the end of the year. The Governing Body, in April last, appointed a Com- 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD mittee under the Chairmanship of Mr. B. M. Osler, to en- quire into all the details of the question and make a report at the next meeting in October. The Committee held several meetings and made an exhaustive search into all the factors bearing on the matter. In October a report was submitted recommending that the T.C.S. Cadet Corps become an Air Cadet Corps, and the Governing Body accepted the recommendation. The R.C.A.F. have written to say that they will be glad to welcome the School as an Air Cadet Corps and a formal change-over ceremony may be held before the Christmas holidays. It is hoped that the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal W. A. Curtis, may attend the ceremony. T.C.S. was the first School in the British Empire to affiliate its Cadet Corps with an Air Force unit. This step was taken in 1936 when the present Chief of the Air Staff was then Squadron-Leader in command of the No. 110 City of Toronto reserve squadron, the squadron with which we became affiliated. Air Marshal Curtis was much interest- ed in the affiliation and helped the plan in every Way he could. Air Commodore G. S. O'Brian C07-'12l, who founded the City of Toronto Squadron, and H. L. Symons C06-'12J also gave much assistance to the new scheme. The plan was approved by the then Minister of Na- tional Defence and it was mentioned in the House of Com- monsg Air Vice Marshal W. A. Bishop gave it his entire approval and an editorial appeared in the Mail and Empire commending the idea. and praising the record of the School's Cadet Corps. It may be said that by this affiliation, and the intro- duction of some Air Force training at the School, the Air Cadet Movement, so valuable during the war, was born. But the T.C.S. Cadet Corps was still under the authority of the Army though affiliated to an Air Force unit. And the Army were always very good to the Corps. Now that the T.C.S. Corps has become an Air Cadet Corps. at the age of 83, we look forward to many more TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 years of useful and interesting training under the wing of the youngest and highest and fastest branch of the Armed Services. RETIREMENT OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE GOVERNING BODY At the meeting of the Governing Body held on October 15, Mr. G. B. Strathy announced his retirement from the Chairmanship and Colonel J. W. Langmuir was elected Chairman. Mr. Strathy was elected to be the first Chairman ten years ago and he has been re-elected every year since that time. His wise counsel, and constant interest in every detail affecting the welfare of the School have been of inestimable value. It would be a terrible loss indeed if Mr. Strathy had retired from the Governing Body, but fortunately he has agreed to become a life member and has said that his services will be available from time to time. G. B. Strathy was at T.C.S. from 1895 until 1897. In his final year he was a Prefect and Won the Chancellor's Prize as Head Boy. He played on the Cricket XI. In the Matriculation examinations he obtained first class honours in classics, winning the Burnside Scholar- ship. At Trinity he won the Wellington Scholarship in Classics and he was editor-in-chief of the Trinity Review. He served in the first World War in France and Bel- gium. In 1897 Mr. G. B. Strathy made a donation to the fund being raised for the rebuilding of the Chapel after the fire of 1895. Since that time, for fifty years, he has been of constant assistance to the School, contributing most generously for many different School purposes. T.C.S. is indeed fortunate to have, and to have had, such a true son and such a generous Old Boy. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Debating Club This year the boys of the School who are interested in debating have organized a Debating Club in the hope that the level of debating in the School might be put on a higher plane than it has been in the last few years. The Club is under the guidance of Mr. Humble. At the first meeting D. W. Fulford was elected President, R. L. Watts was elect- ed Vice-President and P. H. R. Alley was elected Secretary. The members of this Club so far this year are: Burland, Chester, Cross, Deadman, Herridge, Macklem i, McDonald, McDowell, McGregor i, Rhea, Ross i, Snowdon, Taylor, Williamson and Wright. As a closing note we might men- tion that this is one of the few clubs in the School at the present time which does not serve refreshments at the close of its meetings. We wish the Club the greatest success in attaining its aims. The Political Science Club This year the Political Science Club is being revived after a year's lapse. The organization meeting was held on November 16 when R. L. Watts was elected President, and D. W. Fulford was elected Secretary. The Club this year, as in the past, is being advised by Mr. Hodgetts. At the initial meeting there were twelve boys present and four more boys were admitted bringing the present total up to sixteen. The members of the Society are as follows: Alley, Bronfman, Carson, Gaunt, Kingman, McDowell, McIntyre, Rhea, Snowdon, Taylor, Vernon, Williamson and Wright. We wish the Club the greatest of success in the remainder of the school year. The Dramatic Society The Dramatic Society, after a great deal of discussion, has finally decided to present at the annual Christmas Entertainment, a play entitled the The Rehearsal by TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Maurice Baring. The play should be very well received by the School as it is a parody on Shakespeare's Macbeth , which is being studied this year by the upper forms of the School. The Half-Holiday On Friday, October 14, the Headmaster shattered recent tradition and gave a special half-holiday in honour of three Old Boys who had visited the School recently: Frank Stone, who returned to the School for the first time with his bride, and Thomas Godet and Bruce Sully who were on their honeymoons. It was a great pleasure to see these Old Boys and we hope they will visit us again be- fore long. The School took advantage of the respite from classes to get outside and enjoy the Indian Summer weather we were having. -T- Micro-Waves On Friday, October 24, Mr. H. A. Blachford gave the School an excellent demonstration of the elementary prin- ciples of our modern telephone and explained the present application and future importance of newly exploited micro-waves. By means of a transmitter and receiver we were shown that just as light can be bent through a plastic tube, micro- waves may pass through a cylindrical tube twisted into seemingly impassable distortion. These waves also made their way through the obstruction of a human head and body while thin sheets of certain metals proved im- pregnable. We were all impressed by Mr. Blachford's clear explanations and found his topic most interesting. Victory Dinner On Tuesday, October 28, to celebrate the victory over Ridley, Mrs. Ketchum invited the first team over to the 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Lodge for supper. The team did full justice to the menu of lamb chops, fresh green peas, sweet and mashed pota- toes, punch, ice-cream and coffee. One of the main points of the meal was a large chocolate cake with the scores of Saturday's game on it. After the dinner the team was in no condition to do any thing but sit, although a few ambi- tious souls made attempts at singing, following the Head- master's presentation of crests to the members of last year's championship cricket team. The team gives to Mrs. Ketchum well deserved thanks for an excellent supper and a good time. The New Boys' Hallowe'en Party On the evening of October 31, the annual New Boys' Hallowe'en party again provided an entertaining evening for all. A large crowd first assembled in the gym. and witnessed Bethune House come from behind to Win the dif- ficult obstacle race. The scene then shifted to the swim- ming pool into which were dumped a great number of apples. New Boys from both houses lined up on the edge and dived in to retrieve them without using their hands. The outcome was extremely close with Brent edging out Bethune 255 to 251 apples according to the famous pre- cision l7 jewel McDowell Apple Counter. The new boys were then let loose in the upper floors of the class-room block to acquire chocolate bars hidden by the Prefects, and seemed quite successful in their search. Refreshments provided by Mrs. Wilkin in the Hall gave a delightful climax to a very enjoyable evening. 1 - The Long Week-end At last on November 7 the long awaited half-term break began. The majority of the School left either for Toronto on buses or for Montreal by train, but a meagre twenty stayed at the School to study UD On Monday these THE FIRST' TEAN1 lufrrl:-H. P.

L..1-1 Dancing Classes Passing the dining hall one afternoon last week, we were amazed to hear issuing forth soft dance music and the shuffle of dainty C?J feet upon a waxed floor. Taking a quick peek into the hall, we discovered a large number of boys holding a dance, or so it seemed, even though there was only one damsel present. Upon inquiry we found that it was Miss Wilkin conducting lessons in ballroom dancing. The School is most grateful to Miss Wilkin for carrying on this important phase of our education. Piano Recital and Poetry Reading On Friday, November 17, the School was privileged to hear a piano recital by Mr. John Coveart and poetry readings by Mrs. McKellar. Mr. Coveart, one of the more brilliant young Canadian musicians, is from The Royal Conservatory of Music, Toronto. He played a well chosen selection of pieces, among which were Fugue in A minor by Bach, Sequidilla by Albeniz, Soiree de Vienne by Straus, and Waltz in A flat by Chopin. Mr. Coveart was then pre- vailed upon to play two encores for which he chose a Pre- lude by Gershwin, and The Ritual Dance of Fire by Da Falla. It was quite clear to all who heard his finished rendering of these compositions that Mr. Coveart will go far as a concert pianist. We also liked his ease and na- turalness. Mrs. McKellar then gave readings from a group of modern Canadian poems including The Cattle Thief by Pauline Johnston, An Indian Squaw's Lament by John Logan, Sir John Wins His Seat by Mildred Lowe, and The Charlotte May by McLeod, all of which were well received. 1S TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD We wish to thank Mr. Coveart and Mrs. McKellar for com- ing to us. Their programme was very much enjoyed. -i- ..- i.. Princess Elizabetlfs Wedding November 20 Trinity College School rejoiced with the rest of the world on November 20 when H.R.H. Princess Elizabeth was married to Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The School was awarded a half-holiday in honour of this momentous occasion. We all wish our Princess and her husband every possible happiness. .1..l. Ye Olde Smoker The pipe Smokers , usually infamous for their dirty den of iniquity in the basement of Bethune House, have sprung to life this year and, by spending a little time and money and enrolling the help of Miss Wilkin, have made this dingy room into a comfortable and livable common room. Keep up the good work, Smokers! -1-11- Presentation of Macbeth November 21 I hope that you will all see Macbeth sometime be- cause after you have seen it, you will find that it is much easier to understand. How often has an English master said this to his class? How often has a class had the opportunity to see the play that they have been studying? Macbeth came to Port Hope last night and I think that we now have, as so many masters have prophesied, a fuller comprehension of the play and Shakespeare's style gen- erally. Macbeth was put on in St. Mark s Hall by the New Play Society under the direction of Mavor Moore. Instead of the original five acts, the play was presented in two acts and a few of the unimportant speeches were omitted. Be- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 cause of this, the action of the play flowed along quickly and without interruption. This quick development of the plot made everyone forget about the uncomfortable chairs and they weren't reminded of them again until after the last stage call. The acting itself was very Well done. Lady Macbeth and Banquo were the best of the main characters but they were all good. The sleep walking scene was especially im- pressive. What gave us the biggest shock, however, was the realization that Shakespearian comedy can be funny. The porter's soliloquy is the only part of the whole play where humour is used but during that short time there was a constant titter running through the audience. Perhaps some of us who were so avidly opposed to Shakespeare's wit will reconsider our opinions. We should like to thank all those responsible for bring- ing Macbeth to Port Hope and we hope that a similar opportunity will be given to the School next year. -1.- Mr. Eric Morse Speaks on the International Situation On Saturday, November 22, Mr. Eric Morse, an Old Boy and former master of the School, gave a thoroughly interesting and informative address to the School on the current international situation. Stating that the world was at a cross-roads and in a very difficult situation, Mr. Morse first gave us an insight into some of the factors that govern many of the actions of the nations of the world by describing the highlights of the foreign policies of Russia and the United States. Mr. Morse then gave three factors which he considered to be the driving force behind Russia's foreign policy-that she retains memories of the invasion after the last war by the Western Powers, that she has an inferiority complex due to her status as the poor relation of Europe, and that Russia's leaders have come to power through strife and revolution. 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Mr. Morse next claimed that Russia does not want war and that she wants to stay in the U.N. He maintained that she was not ready for war because of the lack of a navy, a strategic air force, and scientific and industrial de- velopment. Their plan is to wait until the U.S. is racked by a depression and will have to withdraw from its far flung bases. Russia could then step into the vacuum. The reason Russia does not want to quit the U.N. is that that organization gives Russia a soap-box for her pro- paganda and she remembers her lonely years of isolation. Russia does not want to expose herself further in the em- barassing situation she has created by telling her people that their living standard is higher than most European countries. Mr. Morse expressed the view that Russia was not out to secure world domination but to assemble a galaxy of friendly satellites about her. Going on to discuss the main points behind the U.S. foreign policy, Mr. Morse mentioned the economic angle centering around the Marshall plan, oil politics, and the fact that the U.S., being a world power, has to think in terms of strategy. Mr. Morse then discussed the points at which these two policies come into conflict. He mentioned specifically the fact that there cannot be a balance of power with only two World powers leftg the crumbling of once-proud em- pires creates vacuums for Communism to enterg and that the conflict of the powers in Germany, North Greece and Korea has increased the tension among the nations. In conclusion Mr. Morse said that the present struggle could have three possible outcomes: first, warg or secondly an agreement to disagree , a situation similar to the old Catholic-Protestant relationshipg or thirdly, international agreement. The latter course is naturally preferable. He said that Canada's part in the U.N., which cannot in itself halt war, is to create confidence and to keep up her strength, exercising the latter wisely. i-,li- -1 T-bl 'K ? Q :4 ..

U E ff vi 'A TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 A POINT OF VIEW Or, Seeking an International Modus Vivendi lThe substance of an address given by the Headmaster to the members of the Deanery Laymen's Association in Belleville, Ontario, on November 17, 1947 J. Since the end of the second great War over two years ago, We have all been fighting a feeling of frustration and despair at the course of international events. It has be- come a truism to say that the nations of the world are all dependent on one another if we are to prosper and live peaceably. A violent disease in one part is bound to spread over the whole body if it is not corrected. After spending a large part of our fortune in lives and materials to check one violent disease, We now find others breaking out and stifling the great hopes we had for a post war world living up to the ideals set forth in the preamble to the Constitution of the United Nations. Most of the millions of Europe are existing without sufficient food, clothing or shelter. They are producing very little and have lost hope and ambition. They feel themselves to be pawns in a complicated game played by great forces at present doing everything possible, short of physical Warfare, to get the better of each other. The conditions in Europe are repeated around the shores of the Mediterranean and, going east, in India, China, Japan. In short, only the people of the American continent, Africa, Australia, and possibly those of Russia, feel at all settled and are leading lives at all normal. Over half the inhabitants of the world are drifting Without any bright- ness in their lives, Without hope, Without morale. It is little wonder We cannot feel easy despite our pre- sent facade of prosperity when we see such a prospect on the horizon, and knowing, as we do, that the horizon is now just over the hill and not far away. The disease in that 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD half of the world is bound to spread unless it can be quick- ly checked. And so we have the Marshall plan, now under debate in Washington, which we all hope will be a success despite its very grave possible shortcomings. It is not my purpose to go into details of that plan but let me mention three of the serious dangers inherent in it. First it presupposes, under present conditions, a divided Europe: one part will receive aid, the other will not. Inevitably the iron curtain will become a wall of steel shutting off a very large part of Europe and Asiafrom the Western World and divorcing millions of people and an exceedingly rich trading area from contact with us, for they will most certainly turn for succour to Russia. Another danger is the whim of Congress. Some of us remember the incalculably disastrous decision of Congress in 1919 when-they refused to support President Wilson in his plans for a League of Nations. How can anyone be certain that the millions which ma.y be voted to-morrow will still be forthcoming a year later? If such assistance is begun, and high hopes are raised, how disastrous it would be if the aid was suddenly cut off before any results appeared. The peoples of Western Europe would feel duped and abandoned and would most likely resort to violence. A third danger is that this aid will give people the feeling that they will be rescued without much effort on their part. When the American funds begin to roll in, their present affliction, which has been called dollarium Trumansj' will be cured, they may think, and they can sit back and enjoy the generosity of their rich Uncle Sam. Those are some of the reasons we cannot feel com- pletely confident about the success of the Marshall plan, though it is probably vital as an immediate stop gap. What I do want to draw your attention to for a mo- ment is a much more important agency than the Marshall plan. it is the United Nations organization. True, we have TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 often been discouraged since it was formed at the lack of decision and harmony in its deliberations, but let me remind you that whatever its shortcomings it is still the greatest experiment in promoting world unity which we have ever seen, fifty-seven nations belong to it and even though there are frequent clashes of opinion, at least the meetings provide a clearing house for ideas and the delegates from the nations of the world must be getting to know each other better and must be understanding more fully the viewpoint and problems of other nations. I say without hesitation that the United Nations is our one instrument at present for settling international differences without recourse to war, a war which we are told would be more disastrous than anything one has ex- perienced or imagined. I know that you are thinking of Russia and her veto and the violent language of her representatives. Those are certainly most serious obstacles to the effective func- tioning of the United Nations but they are not insuper- able obstacles. Russia unquestionably is the No. 1 checkerboard of danger which we, as Canadian citizens, meet on the inter- national highway to-day. Instead of becoming furious that there is such a checkerboard and trying to demolish it with our car-a very risky proceeding-let us take the detour calmly and intelligently, rough and dangerous as it may be, doing our utmost to stay on the highway which alone will lead us to World Unity. In the first place let me mention a grave error many of us make: we use the terms Russia and Communism as synonymous. That is not right. The Russian govern- ment is a Communist government but only about six pers- cent of the Russian population are members of the Com- munist party. Calling all Russians Communists is just as wrong as calling all Canadians Liberals because we have a Liberal government. Doubtless the great majority of Rus- sians care very little what form of government they have 241 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD as long as they can get their fair share of food and cloth- ing and have a decent place to live. The Communists have got control of them and they hear nothing but Communist doctrine, but they are Rus- sians and few of them are Communists. Let us always re- member that when we hear people denouncing all Russians as Communists. 0 Unfortunately, when we are dealing officially with Russia, we have to deal with Communists and for some time now these official Communists seem to the layman to have been almost hysterical in their zeal to promote the Communist doctrine. A real democrat finds it impossible to excuse their excesses but there are certain considera- tions which should be borne in mind if we are to be intelli- gently patient and are to avoid an utterly disastrous ex- plosion. Some of these are: 1. The Communists, being dictators, know that their future and perhaps their very lives depend on their keep- ing themselves in unquestioned ascendancy in Russia. 2. They know that immediately after the German surrender many thousands of their troops had a taste of the comforts and comparatively easy life of the Western democracies. 3. Dictators can impose hardships on their im- poverished people and retain their power over long years by three essential means: Cal holding out promises of better things to come- five year plans, etc. tbl discovering a perilous threat against their coun- try and people, ici ruling with iron and cruel discipline. The Russian dictators use these means to the full. 4. The powers that be ir1 Russia see Europe in a state of chaos or semi chaos, men reaching out for anything that will support life on this sea of trouble. It is a perfect setting for the spread of Communism and they are deter- mined to make the most of it. Hence their opposition to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 the Marshall plan, and the desperate lengths to which they are willing to go to get their way in the Balkans, in Greece, in Italy, in France and China. 5. The strength of the United States angers them and the secrecy surrounding the atom bomb infuriates and frightens them. They therefore use both of these fears to their own advantage by passing them on to their people at every available opportunity. The U.S.A. is just waiting to seize them by the neck, they say. The capitalist powers are determined to destroy them. 6. They remember the many occasions on which Rus- sia has been invaded by European powers. All this would seem to add up to an impossible im- passe, but I do not look at it in that light. After all, let us remember that only three years ago we were all praising the gallantry and courage of the Rus- sians, and certainly we would never have brought Germany to her knees in 1945 had the Russians surrendered in 1941 or 1942. It is well to remember, too, that the Russian nation lost one killed in every twenty of her population, the United States lost one killed in every 500. Also let us recall that about one third of the Russian nation was devastated by warg there was no damage in the United States. But above all let us realize that during the years when we were depending on Russia as a strong and brave ally to hold and beat back the Germans, at that very time we were developing a weapon utterly revolutionary in its de- structive power and we were developing it in the utmost secrecy without breathing a word to Russia, our ally, about it. I am told by a very high ranking diplomat that it was not the nature of the atomic bomb which made such a deep first impression on the Russians, it was the fact that they had been left out in the cold in its development. That startled them, it reminded them of Munich, and began to make them think that their allies were truly suspicious of 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD them and perhaps intriguing against them. The same in- formant told me that after VJ Day the Russian crowds surrounded the American Embassy for days, cheering for the President and people of the United States. Then the news of the bomb began to leak out. And then Russian newspapers reprinted articles from some of the most scur- rilous of the American newspapers to the effect that now that the Americans had the atom bomb they should use it against Russia without delay and clean the Communists off the face of the earth. One can hardly wonder that Russian public opinion began to change and that the Russian Communist gover- nors began to speak of a capitalistic plot again them and take action accordingly. Let me make it quite clear that no believer in demo- cracy and the four freedoms could condone the Russian Communist tacticsg I am saying that if we are to deal with them successfully as representing one of the great powers in the United Nations we must bear this background in Iulnd. We must realize, too, that Russia is in desperate need of industrial equipment if she is to rebuild her shattered economy. She had hoped to be helped by the United States but that hope has gone for the time being, and so she is stripping German factories and beginning to or- ganize a strong eastern Europe economic bloc. That is an outline of the Russian picture as I see it. The terribly grave danger is that the present tension between Russia and the United States will be exaggerated by extremists and will grow worse and worse until the slightest explosion anywhere will lead to a catastrophic war. Surely it is almost criminal for people to encourage the possibility of such a war, which the Germans always want- ed, by saying that it is inevitable, or by saying that they are bringing up their sons to fight Russia. They might just as well say that it is inevitable that our civilization is TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD QT coming to a rapid end, or that they are bringing up their children to destroy themselves. There are now influential people in the United States and Canada who openly advocate immediate war against Russia to wipe them off the earth while we have the bomb and they haven't. Such people are perfectly blind to the long range consequences of such an actg in order to make such a suggestion they must be devoid of any sense of the Christian ethic and without morality in the true sense. They are an dangerous to the future of our civiliza- tion as the most radical communists. Have either of the last two world wars solved our problems? Everyone suffers in war, and war with Russia would leave the world in a desperate situation for scores of years. It is my experience that when one small ruffian hurls taunts and insults at a boy, and the other lad replies in kind, perhaps adding a few choice epithets, then the next step is a knock down fight. But when the second lad disdains the remarks or answers calmly and bears patient- ly the insults, there is still a chance that he may have some success in teaching the first ruffian manners which will enable him to get along in a civilized society. 'I'hat is partly the grim picture to-day. Too many Americans and Canadians are beginning to hurl back in- sults at the Russians and to suggest that all Russians are murderous Communists with a Viskinsky complex. During the next few months I believe we are going to see a deter- mined offensive against Communism launched by a group which has become very powerful in the United States and Canada because of the war. The trouble is that Russia, as a nation, is always linked closely with Communism, and such a campaign will be certain to turn people violently against Russia. Already there have been made in this coun- try most intemperate public statements about Russia, statements which were being made three years ago about Nazism. There have even been totally unwarranted state- 253 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 1 ments made against the British Government because it was a Socialist government and next door to Communism . It does seem clear that the more radical Communists desire to foment a state of chaos in certain countries so that they may seize power. We should therefore take the most extreme measures short of war to protect our demo- cratic way of life, and people who are known to be sowing the seeds of chaos and revolution should be deprived of their liberty. But we must also be constantly on our guard that the pendulum does not swing to the opposite extreme, and that control, under this threat, is not seized by reactionary forces. There seems to be every reason to believe that such forces are extending their influence in Canada and the United States to-day. Propaganda has been perfected in war time and it is very easy to turn a whole nation against another one by means which produce a state of near hysteria in the mind of the average citizen. The unthinking person is then easily influenced to accept extreme measures. We are living in days when the Whole future of the world is in the melting pot. It is supremely and vitally important that we, as responsible Christian citizens, keep our heads and bear these facts in our minds whatever we read and hear or see: 1. War will not solve our problemsg it will add so many that civilization, as we know it, may come to an end. 2. The only way to deal with Russia is to be patient, intelligent and firm, letting her know without any shadow of a doubt where we stand. ' 3. The best defense against Communism is a strong and true democracy, benefiting everyone, and not one run by pressure groups for the benefit of a comparative few. 4. Canada in these years will have a vital opportunity of playing the role of mediator between the two extremes of reactionary capitalism and radical communism, and our TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 great hope lies in discovering quickly a happy economic mean. 5. Such a role can be played and such a discovery can be made only through the agency of the United Nations, and we must therefore uphold that great experiment with all our strength and with all our faith, and work steadily toward some form of World Government. ,,--1 S-.self f,-wa. ,- V. ..,,a .. ,r - -. ,- . . .. , 4.

A- X i y K -.J A POLL OF SCHOOL OPINION The following poll, composed of a rather motley col- lection of miscellaneous questions, was devised to find out what the knowledge and views of T.C.S. boys are on certain subjects and, for that matter, to see whether they have any views or knowledge. Approximately 77 Qfb of the boys of the School have picked the career which they intend to follow. The broad, but already crowded, field of engineering appeals to 2396 of T.C.S.-ites and many of them specified the type of en- gineering they intended to pursue. Business attracts 1992 of the School, although the majority have not bothered to sub-divide further their future intentions, a few men- tioned such things as insurance, banking and stock-brok- ing. Law l13fik7, medicine f11'?J and the sciences f36kJ trail in the popularity list. That curious category known as others CSCLJ includes such things as the diplomatic service, sports writing, singing, military service and act- ing. In a somewhat similar poll conducted three years ago the big four were engineering, medicine, law and aviation in that order. At least 8495 of T.C.S. males go out with girls in the holidays and 167 do not: 8241 intend to get married and 169 do notg there appears in this latter group a 255 un- decided element which has not yet been won over. 21? of TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 those who intend to get married actually have some one in mind. When asked why they went out with girls the fol- lowing replies, among many others, were given: Pure en- tertainment , They're the goods-I'm in love , Silly boy ! ! , You can't really say-it's just one of those things that's done . 1Ed.-the naive type no doubtl. Those who stand aloof from girls also have their reasons such as: I save my money , They would take too much of my time , I think I'm too young , I dislike them-they're silly . The Schoo1's knowledge of current events, as exhibited by the few questions that were asked, while hardly ex- haustive could conceivably be a bit worse. 5196 knew who Gromyko was and an additional 2492 were able to guess that he was a Russian who had something to do with foreign junk. 6196 could name the American Secretary of State while only 2992 could name the Canadian Minister for External Affairs. 57W have a vague idea of what the Marshall Plan is, and an additional 10 96 were under the mistaken impression that they knew what it was. 561k think that we will have war with Russia in about fifteen years while only 3891 are peace-mongers. The favourite player sport of the School is football 125963 with hockey 123961 a close second and skiing, soc- cer, riding, tennis, sailing, cricket, basketball, swimming, gym., track, and fishing coming far behind. The favourite spectator sport is hockey 150963 with football 13961 com- ing a not very close second while tennis, basketball, box- ing, sailing, and cricket each have a minute number of enthusiasts in the School. When the boys of the School were asked who they hoped would win and then who they thought would win the N.H.L., the teams ended up in the same order with the exception of Detroit, which for some reason does not seem to rouse the hopes of T.C.S. Toronto came first with Montreal slightly behind and the other teams hopelessly lagging. There was a small but voluble minority who said that they did not give a darn . 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The magazine liked most in the School is Life 135720 while Time, another Luce publication comes second. Esquire, Sports Magazine, Saturday Evening Post, New Yorker, National Georgraphic come after the leaders in that order. In 1944 the list of popularity ran Life, Reader's Digest, Saturday Evening Post, Esquire, Time. Popular Mechanics, National Geographic. It's not their fault , They are a nice bunch but they have a lot of faults , I thought they'd be a lot worse than they are , UGROAN! ! , are some typical printable re- marks by the new boys about their beloved Seniors and Prefects. The Seniors and Prefects, when asked about the New Boys, remark: I'd rather not answer that , They're the usual scruffy lot , They appear terribly stupid, but they are probably not much worse than we once were , Willing but dumb . The boys in the 4476 group that considered this poll a poor idea need not read it. THE BILLIARD CLUB The Billiard Club is one of the most ancient and honourable institutions of T.C.S. Its origin is shrouded in antiquity and even Mr. G. T. has little to say on the subject of its founding, although it is clear that the Club did not reach its present prominence in the School until the advent of one C.S. Mr. Scott immediately became Club President and School champion even though he was fre- quently heard to announce I am not a good player . A limited number of boys in the top forms become members upon payment of one dollar per annum and strict observance of all rules and regulations. But more notable among the titans who daily battle it out are some of our venerable masters. Those of us who have been in the School for some years will no doubt remember the standing struggle between Mr. Scott and Colonel Stevenson. These two staunch players used to fight it out every day with TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 real earnestness and it has been remarked that after two hours of gruelling conflict, they assumed attitudes of icy politeness towards each other. And no one will ever for- get Mr. Scott announcing after lunch that Billiard room will be out of bounds from three to four this afternoon nor the Colonel muttering, Hflukes, flukes nor even Mr. Scott grumbling, you do get all the luck, Colonel. Neither contestant conceded a win, the other just had all the luck. This rivalry is presently being carried on among Messrs. Scott, Gwynne-Timothy, Bagley, Hett and Knight, and one can often hear these individuals playing at night, at the bottom of Trinity House, as if the fate of the world depended upon their luck, Though called the Billiard Club, other and less worthy games have taken place behind its doors. One of these, called Snooker, consists of putting all the balls in the room on the table and then letting them have it. This is accom- panfed by such other shady activities as sitting on the table while making an angle shot, and failing to chalk one's cue properly, which is classed as a heinous crime. Mr. Scott has often been heard to shout Why don't the boys chalk the cues, chalk, chalk. Plenty of it . Let us hope that the Billiard Club will long remain one of the features of the School and that much pleasure for all will be derived from it. Pass the chalk. -J. D. Ross, VA, and D. A. H. Snowden, VIA. 'F Editor's Note:-The following extract from the Record, February, 1937, throws considerable light on the subject of the Club's origin: The School received a mar- vellous surprise after the Christmas holidays when it was learnt that Mr. and Mrs. Duncan McLaren had given their full size English billiard table to us. As we had spent several weeks examining ways and means of repairing the old table which had not been in use for four years, and as we had just given up hope of being able to do anything except a patching job, this most generous gift came as a 3.1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD doubly welcome Christmas present to us. A Club has been formed and the table is never idle during spare hours. It is indeed a luxurious addition to the School and we are very grateful to the kind donors. THE PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY For Pete's sake, don't turn on the light! If it's said once it's said a thousand times in that little dark room on the top floor of the class-room block. And small wonder with the utter chaos that reigns there continuously. The floor area is about five feet by ten and with half a dozen people doing a dozen and a half things at the same time, the result is invariable and complete bedlam. Willie Welsford and Dugan Durnford are trying to manipulate the School's giant enlarger without a great deal of success, while Des Bogue stands beside them with Lark's new machine. Then, of course, there's Her- ridge fwho being an Ottawa man no doubt learned the ART from Karshl stumbling under the crushing weight of his massive negatives, trying to enlarge them to a human size. Brinckman also lwho is always good for a few sheets of paper and some developerl is frequently to be seen add- ing his share to the confusion. But despite this apparent disorder I think that photo- graphy and the Camera Club are a worth-while project and pastime. It is a very interesting hobby and long hours spent over trays in the subdued light of a safe-lamp cer- tainly have their recompense. The majority of us had never done any work of this kind before we came to T.C.S., and had to learn from the more experienced like Bogue, or more often by experience itself, which is a costly method at times. But I'm sure all the members will agree with me that it has all been very worth-while. It is amazing how little time it takes to learn the fundamentals, and in no time at all you can develop and print, but to become proficient in enlarging takes a little more practice. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 This practice, however, has its compensation too. and if you ever hear wild screams of delight and joyous cries of success issuing from the third floor of the classroom block, you will know it is one of the dark-room boys admiring the inimitable charm of some new and beautiful enlargement. -J. dePencier. VB. . 'G - if BN e Q I BARNES, A. M.- Al marched into Bethune House with his cricket bat and soccer boots in the fall of '44, and immediately began expounding to us the Spades and other features of God's Country fBermudaJ. He show- ed that he could use his bat and boots most effectively, as he was a member of Bigside soccer and cricket for two years. He was a star of the Little Big Four champion- ship cricket team last year and was awarded the cup for the most improved player. Another of Al's athletic achievements was the fact that he played for three years on the Bermuda All Star hockey team. A member of the Record Staff, he bore the brunt of sports assign- ments, and for his contributions to School life he was made a Senior in his final year. Al has left us to take a commerce course at Queen's where we wish him the best in everything. Q BARTON, J. S.- Dumbo , one of our representatives from England, entered Bethune House in the fall of '43 and 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD left many friends behind him when he departed for Trinity College last year. Dumbo took an interest in all School activities. He was on the Record staff, a Sacristan, and as a member of the debating team, won the debating prize. By his hard work on the soccer field he made the first team as a full-back in his final year. He was one of those enviable people who always came near the top of the A-forms during his four-year stay. John left us as a Senior, and he is now taking a Maths and Science course at Trinity where we wish him the best of luck. BLACK, L. K.- Bimbo joined us in September '44 and was with us for three years. Last year he spent the fall term kicking converts for Middleside rugby. After Christmas he captained the Juvenile hockey team, the always did find the most comfortable seat in the penalty boxj, and also found time to make the squash team. Dur- ing the summer term he earned his colours on Bigside cricket and his campus golf game Was a menace to all within a ten yard radius. A Brent House Officer and a Sacristan, he took a prominent part in all Middle Flat bull sessions and regaled us with tales of his amatory prowess. He made a host of friends at T.C.S. and we all wish him the best of luck at Royal Roads, where he is busy learning the intricacies of a reef knot. BROOKS, G. F.-Geoff wandered into the halls of Trinity House in the fall of '44, and bounced amiably out of those halls after three years and as many days. He was admitted to McMaster this year and seems to be enjoy- ing life there thoroughly. In the world of sports we remember him as the Bradburn Boy , for he won that cup for being the best boxer in the School. He also starred on Middleside football and hockey, where his v-4 71 '1 Q Y N -x 23 Q if V I W F F Z Q O lm m0 502 P-N -1 P14. W Z f-. 73 m FD O Z 'P ? F ,- 571 C fb E ro 33 3 3 F ru E.

In his last year Geoff became a House Officer, and we wish him the very best of luck in his future plans, which seem to point toward the U. of T. next year. 11- CAMPBELL, D. A.-Alarums, catcalls . . . enter Cuggie This import from Montreal invaded Bethune House in 1943, and his fellow inhabitants soon realized they had a new and unfathomable character to deal with. Until his final sixth form year Cuggie did not distinguish himself apart from developing an insatiable lust for detention and winning the mental maths. prize in IIIA, about which he would expound on every possible occasion. During his last year Cuggie played well on Bigside soccer and a part from doing very well in the skiing competition, indulged in such extra-curricular activities as the Record, the Band, the Choir, and was also a Sacristan and a debater. His most notable achievement was a magnificent imitation of Al Jolson, performed on the evening before Speech Day. Cuggie was appointed a House Officer and has now gone on to McGill, where we wish him the best of luck. DALTON, J. D.-John was at first Lmnoticed at T.C.S.g just a little new-boy they said. However, his clever wit UD soon earned him the nickname Daffy which he retained during his five years at the School. He never ea.rned a great deal of recognition at sports,but in his last year Daffy made the swimming team, and for his good work on it he received his Middleside swimming colours. In the summer term Daffy did notnfind a sport to his liking and took to long walks and bicycle rides in the country, often with his camera. Daffy's long stay was climaxed when he was made a House Officer in his last year. Our best wishes go with him. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD HAMILTON, E. D. W.- Wilber Dormouse Hamilton came from the North country to T.C.S. in '44, Besides his fame as a prodigious sleeper who could sleep at any time and in any place, Wilber was possibly best known for his knack for constructing swooping little gliders and kites that actually flew. While it can hardly be said that he starred on Middleside soccer, he at least was one of its most faithful players. Wilber's enviable ability to pick up good marks with little apparent effort stood him in good stead in his final year when he won a scholarship to Queen's. He left us as a House Officer and we wish him the best of luck with his Work at university. LIVINGSTON, D. K.- Deadpebble , as he was known to his many friends, entered the School 'Wayback in '43, spending his-first year in the famous cottage. He was one to whom neither sports nor academics came easily, yet he took a crack at all sports, and in these, and as a member of VIB, he made a very creditable showing in- deed. D.K. played Middleside soccer, dabbled in hockey, and spent the summer afternoons on long bike rides. He was a House Officer and took good care of the Trinity House dormitories last year. Dave left us last year for McGill, where we know he will be successful, and we wish him luck. MCDONOUGH, J. D.-Dave came to the School from Lon- don. Ontario. in September '43, and left us in June of last year. For two years he played left wing on Bigside hockey and last year tied for the scoring leadership. He was also on the Bigside cricket team for two years, keep- ing wicket for last year's Little Big Four championship team. Dave was also a House Officer and a member of the Sports Staff of the Record. At present he is at Lawrence Park Collegiate in Toronto. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 PANGMAN, P. M.-Pete came to us from Montreal in '44 and has amused us all with his rendition of Albert and the Lion and other similar verses. Although on most occasions very quiet, he rose to great heights especially on such occasions as trips with the smoker hockey team and recitals in the Hall. Pete was a member of the dramatic society and we will not easily forget his many appearances on the T.C.S. stage. In his last year he was in VIB and although participating in many outside acti- vities CU, he kept his studies to a high standard. He played on Bigside football last year, and for his many accomplishments was made a Senior. Pete is now at McGill and we hope he will do as well there as he did here. PATERSON, C. G.- Peewee toddled into the Junior School from Mexico some nine years ago, and last year he strode out of Brent House, a full-fledged Senior, into Cantab, where he hopes to complete his Senior Matric. Pish , as he was intimately known, was the Gabriel of last year's Cadet Corps band. In the field of sport. be- sides fishing and you know what, he managed to capture a first team soccer colour. A member of Bigside cricket last year, he also captained the Middleside gym. team. As electrician for the Christmas entertainment, and as chief operator of the movie projector, he did a very cap- able job. The best of luck to you Peewee! POWELL, J. A.-Andy came to T.C.S. in '45, Lmder magni- ficent Sinatra-like shoulders, and carrying a professional pair of skis. Among other accomplishments in the field of sports, he became vice-captain of the ski team which for the first time won an inter-school cup. Frankie was naturally a valuable member of the choir and was also a participant in Bethune House Bottom Flat har- mony C?J. His feature contributions were a valuable TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD asset to the Record, and he was in the top form, VIA. and a House Officer. Hailing from Montreal, Andy has gone back to his old haunts and is attending McGill. All the best, Andy. 1.--1. PRENTICE, J. D.- Curses, only 105 in Chemistry-this will nevah do . In 1944, a small youth was sighted tacking bravely up the St. Lawrence from Halifax to- wards T.C.S. And so, with the parental words You really must work hard , Jasper, our junior edition of Einstein, proceeded to head VA without soiling his hands by an action so plebeian as the opening of a text book. Though small in stature, Jasper was solidly built, play- ing well on Middleside Soccer, winning second team Gym. colours and also representing the ski team, all these operations taking place during a most phenomenal voice breakage. However, just to prove that he was studious, Jasper bought the odd book late last year, sparing enough time from Record and library work, to lead all candidates for entrance to Royal Roads, gaining a covet- ed Dominion Cadetship for his work. We regret the de- parture of Jasper's happy face but we predict that he will lead his class and never, never suffer from mental fatigue. RICKABY, J. G.- Rick joined his fellow Oakvillains at T.C.S. in the spring of '44, His first love was sports, and in his last year he did a fine job as a middle on Big- side football, for which he was awarded his first team colours. He also played Middleside hockey and cricket. where he will be remembered for his lusty baseball swing.

SANBORN, C. S.- Sandy , in his customary carefree manner, sloped into Bethune House in '43, and we soon realized that he was the gem of Windsor's contribu- tion to T.C.S. Sandy left an enviable record in the annals of T.C.S. He was on the Bigside soccer squad. and was awarded his Middleside colours. He was a good skier and spent most winter Sundays at the ski camp. He made a good showing on Sports Day but swimming was his strong suit. He was the best long distance swim- mer in the School last year, holding for some time the pool record for the 220 yards, and coming second in that event at the Little Big Four meet at Hart House. While not a brilliant scholar, Sandy successfully com- pleted his Upper School last year, winning the Science prize for VIB, after showing the way to that form through most of the year. All in all, he fully deserved his appointment as a House Officer last year. Sandy is now taking pre-med Work at Western, at least when the social life doesn't interfere too much. The best of luck, Sandy. STONE, J. C.-J.C. was among the flock of colonials who came to us in '44, but there was something different about him and the other member of the Jamaica species. No one could understand them, both masters and boys being thoroughly perplexed by their unintelligible jargon. But civilization began to tell, for when Stone began to speak English it was discovered that he was another mad scientist, and one entered his room at the risk of being electrocuted or button-holed into being the audience while he expounded some electro-chemical theory. He played Middleside soccer for two consecutive years and was only prevented from playing on the first team by TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD his light weight. He was a hard worker lwhenever necessity arose for such drastic procedurel which earn- ed him his Senior Matric., liberally sprinkled with first class honours. He is now in England, waiting to enter Cambridge, where we know he will succeed. So long. Pincho! TANNER, W. H. R.-Back in '44, Reg, one of our rugged cowboys, rode into the School from the woolly west. After he laid aside his shooting irons he got down to some real work, getting some of the best senior matric results in the School. When not doodling with his many electrical gadgets or with photography, he took in some sports. Unfortunately in fighting for the Middleside Rugby team, he wrenched his back and was put off sports for the rest of the year. However, this did not slow down our cowboy who ended up a House Officer and one of the brighter lights of VIA. Best of luck at Alberta, Reg. THOMPSON, J. D.-Long Tom became a member of the Senior School in '43, after a couple of years in the J.S. Tommy made good use of his above-average stature in his second year when he lasted the three prescribed rounds in the ring against the knock-out king, Bill Cox. Tommy, however, was very quiet and aside from an occasional pitched battle with Peewee Paterson, he made little use of his pugilistic ability. A fine track and field man, he was especially good where the javelin, discus, and shot-put were concerned. In his last two years he played Middleside football besides breaking numerous squash racquets. Tom was made a Senior at the end of his four-year stand here and is now at Victoria College in Toronto where we wish him all the best of luck. i..1ll..l-. - TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 THOMPSON, M. D.--A member of VIB, Mike came to the hallowed halls of T.C.S. in the fall '46 for a brief stay of one year. He was an outstanding backfielder on the Middleside over seventeen team, and would undoubt- edly have excelled at the game had he returned this year. One of the fortunate few who received their sec- ond-year privileges at Christmas, Mike fully deserved the award of the First Year Challenge Trophy, given by the Prefects at the end of the year. A valued member of the choir, Mike also gave much of his time to the School band and orchestra. Although he received the George Percival Scholfield Memorial bursary last Speech Day, Mike has decided to Work for a year and hopes to attend the University of Toronto next fall. Mike made many good friends at T.C.S. and we feel he deserves well of the future.

At first, like many of luis brothers, he was small and insignificant. But after great struggling against the sun's penetrating rays, attempting to melt him into nothingness, his existence as a cloud snow seemed sure. During the early days of his life. while he travelled over many lands and Waters, dis- covering Nature's handiwork and beauty, he grew larger and larger, gaining strength and weight. And as he passed from place to place, he met many others of his kind and learned from them that he had cousins such as typhoons and tornadoes, and a mighty Hurricane King Cwhose reign, although short, was powerfull, and, above all, a god, Nebulae. One day after the West Wind had chased him and his companions across the prairies, one of the messengers from Nebulae ordered him to meet over the Adirondack mountains in preparation for storm duty. This idea of a duty puzzled Wheried at first, but at the meeting the ex- planation clearly showed him that his job was to lead a storm prince over a level terrain so that its maximum force could be executed. The next day, as the Prince gathered his remaining strength, Wheried carefully planned out their route, making absolutely sure that no TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 interfering mountains could drain the storm's strength. Towards the late afternoon, when all was prepared, the storm prince slowly moved to its destination, picking up speed as it advanced. The lightning began to strike zig- zagging to the earth, the roll of thunder increased ominous- ly with each conquered mile. As the storm at last reached its maximum force, Wheried scurried ahead of the tumul- tuous onslaught, keeping alert in case a crosswind should change its path and defeat the Prince's purpose. However, the carefully planned route guarded the Prince's safety as he slashed and tore through miles of land. Wheried mar- velled at the damage done and wondered whether he too some day might be able to show his accumulated strength. The Prince at last became weaker and slowly faded into oblivion as its last feeble fall of rain cooled and refreshed the thirsty earth. Nebulae was pleased with Wheried and shortly after assigned him to a more dangerous task of leading a tor- nado through a mountainous terrain where each peak was a threat to cut the whirling form. But Wheried, using what little experience he had, guided it safely through the winding valleys and on a final burst over the prairies. Although Wheried was doing well, he had many other competitors, among them many eligible rivals for the posi- tion of the next Hurricane King. The struggle was dif- ficult, but after completing successfully his duties, his capabilities marked him as one of kingly powers. Just before the fulfilment of another of his orders, he received word of their King's final glory and triumph. He had trampled over a large sea and after dealing destruction over a vast area of land had died courageously at the hands of the inland mountains. It was possible now for Wheried's dreams of becoming King to materialize. After his last victory, Nebulae dis- patched to him a message to appear before him in a far- away spot on the vast Pacific Ocean. At the meeting Wheried was crowned the succeeding Hurricane King much 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to his amazement and joy. L Now he knew life would be grand until his end, which he truly hoped would be hon- ourable and glorious. The next few weeks he spent drifting lazily around, gradually supping up strength from lakes and seas. He didn't have to worry about the dangerous mountains, for he had many attendants to guard him and fulfil his every command. Yes, Wheried was happy, as happy as any cloud could be. Ultimately, as the days wore on, he moved into posi- tion to make the long last run. - In a seacoast city in Wheried's path, weather bureaus sounded the storm warning. Many an annoyed business- man reached for his raincoat before leaving his home on his way to work. Vacationists on the still, yet sunny, beaches eyed the distant blackness with concern while tak- ing their children home. A man walking down the main boulevard stopped suddenly and stared in amazement when he saw, in the black depths of the approaching storm on the horizon, the colour seeming to turn an angry red, and then merging into a sullen green. At its crest, majes- tically towered a mass of billowy white clouds giving Wheried a poised yet all-powerful look. The rampage started as he whipped up the sea which drove a massive front of water over the sea-walls, snap- ping tall trees and overturning houses. Then from his midst he hurled bolts of lightning, piercing and wounding the city beneath him at every step. Due to the intense darkness the lights in the city were flicked on, but in a flash Wheried cut the power lines, leaving it in a deathly darkness. Roaring with insane laughter he trampled on, leaving disaster and destruction in his wake. For days his indomitable strength compelled the fearful earth to tremble and quake. Confused meteorologists did not know what to make of his antics as he constantly ridiculed their weather reports. But now ahead of him rose the peaks of the Rockies threatening to destroy him. For two whole TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47 days Wheried valiently fought to climb over them, but all the time his strength was waning and he slowed to a stand- still in his last death-throes and dissipated quietly into the air. But behind him his sons sprang up struggling for power and strength, hoping to follow eventually in their glorious father's steps. --P. L. E. Goering, VIA. THE PROPER STUDY OF MANKIND IS MAN Everytime I hear of this or that plan or the United Nations described as the solution to our difficulties, I mar- vel at the stupidity of our leaders, who tell us that the state of the world as it is today is due simply to the up- setting of a few economic laws and that all we have to do to restore peace and prosperity is to set right those laws. Their theoretical minds have tried to put down in- to a few simple rules, something which is surely far deeper and more complex. They have left one important factor out of their calculations . . . man. Such a conception of society resembles a house without its foundations. It tends to overlook the importance of the individual. The answer to those who argue that man, like plants or animals, is a product of his environment is, in my mind, that primitive man proved his superiority to animals by overcoming the terrific difficulties of his environment. When he felt cold, he did not, like the animals, migrate to warmer climes, but by using 'his intelligence he was able to discover clothes and fire. Surely no one will deny that there are any more influential factors affecting man than cold. Our primitive ancestors were able to conquer obstacles far more essential to life than those which face us today. How is it that we, who are more and better equipped, are unable to cope with a situation that we our- selves have created? Here we are in a World of chronic distress, yet we are afraid to try any new approach to our problem, instead We adopt methods that history has proved 45 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD futile. It has often struck me that we are like the rabbit, caught in a trap, who, when offered the chance to escape refused for he felt that there was no use in trying to get away, as there were more traps waiting outside. Since man is the master of his environment, I believe the solution lies in him, and more exactly in the individual, for. after all, what is society but the individuals of which it is composed? There are those who will argue and point out that individuals like men in general are submissive to the world around them., Consider Lenin and Napoleon. Surely they have proved the opposite is true. A look at history will show how completely these men have changed the economic and social outlook of the different spheres in which they moved. Granted such outstanding indivi- duals are few and that the majority of men are ready fol- lowers, but we have only to look at our own community to see the importance of every man, no matter how insigni- ficant. Our modern civilized world is very much like a community in which every person is an essential and in- tegral partg like the links of a chain one corrupt part may weaken the entire chain. Believing in the importance of the individual, I feel that his attitude is of the utmost im- poriance and that great stress must be placed upon pro- ducing a Well-informed. responsible citizenry. , A world government, a super-national government, is the ultimate goal that humanity is striving for. We can- not achieve this simply by economic or political plans since individual man is the primary basis for solving the problem. Greater individual expression and sense of the unity of mankind can result from the abolition of class distinction, traditional race superiority, religious snobbishness, and colour barriers. Only by progressive education and an en- lightened religious attitude can we possibly hope to remedy this. -N. T. Burland, VIB. - TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 WINDS Upon the soft and silent sea is born A wind, a whispering chill that stirs the low And lapping darkness of the void. It grows, It moans and whimpers like a ghoul forlorn, And with increasing fury drives the waves In lashing tumult. Cold and shivering light, Bedraggled mists, all vanquished in the fight, Deep-smothered by the power the tempest craves. Then from black depths of night is sensed a calm, Which as soft sleep o'erwhelms the torrid brain, Breathes quiet great Neptune's care. The wind has gone, And outer space melts force with hushed balm. Upon the silvery sphere, like gentle rain, The moonbeams fall, a welcome for the dawn. -J. D. Ross, VA. THE BULL'S DEBUT Hole! Hole! The cry rings forth as a black, froth- ing bull bursts furiously from an enclosure and races around the ring. Hole! Again the shout of fifty thousand spectators goes up, for the matador's assistants have ap- peared, attired in glittering costumes of gold and silver. The bull charges! The brave assistant hurriedly waves his cape and then sidles behind a wooden partition, so that the bul1's horns hit only the thick timbers and not flesh and blood. Time after time the bull's mighty horns slash at the thick timbers, but always in vain. The creature does not know that he is merely being tired out, so that he will be easier prey for the matador. Now the two picadors enter the ring, and stand erect with hands outstretched, holding in each a short, spiked pick. As the bull charges the figures, they swerve to one side, and, jumping towards the bull, heavily impale their pikes in his neck. Now the bull has four spikes in his 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD body, sending little rivulets of blood down the heaving stomach. The crowd waits expectantly, then stirs with excite- ment. It is cheering as a tall, splendidly dressed young man strides into the ring, doffing his black hat arrogantly. A hush falls over the spectators, as man and beast face each other, the matador waving his brilliant red cape, and the bull tossing his proud, majestic head. With a snort the bull rushes at the man, who, with a supple motion, avoids the charge as the bull's horns flash within two inches of his chest. Again and again the bull charges, but each time, by a graceful motion, the matador glides away from his path, leaving only his cloak for the bull to tear. The crowd is wild with excitement. Hole! Hole! At each charge the cry is repeated, until it seems as if the arena would burst with the noise. The bull starts to pant. His magnificent head, crown- ed by twisted horns, droops wearily to the ground, and the matador signals for his sword as he is preparing for the kill. Suddenly the bull is seen to brace, to hold his head up once more, and make one final charge for the matador, who easily avoids its blind, wearied rush. As one man the crowd jumps to its feet! The bull-fighter has slipped in a small pool of blood from the animal's back, and is down on his side. In an instant the bull is upon him, wreaking vengeance on the man who has tortured him for hours. With one sweep of the horns, the heaving beast tosses the man high into the air. The matador falls down to the hard earth with a sickening crunch, to be attacked again by the bull, whose sharp hoofs tear his flesh, as he writhes in agony. The assistants rush out, but too late. The beast has had its revenge. On one side of the ring stands the bull, his once satiny coat streaked with blood, his face flecked by foam, and his head, once held high, now sagging wearily to the ground. His strong, knobby knees now tremble, and his muscular neck is pierced by four spiked picks. But before TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 his red-rimmed eyes lies the matador, no longer the con- fident, decorated young gallant who had stepped into the ring, but a lifeless lump of flesh and blood, sprawled hideously on the brown earth. Cerveza! As the crowd buys beer and waits content- edly for the next performance, the bull grows weaker. With one last shrug of his mighty shoulders the beast, who for two short hours has been in his element, sinks to his knees. then to his back, lifeless. -D. M. Pierce, IVBI. 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD THE QUEEN MARY I was lucky enough last August to be one of the hun- dreds of passengers on the Queen Mary's first post-war trip as a luxury liner. I had been travelling off and on, since January. My first trip was on a 4,000 ton cargo- ship. On leaving Mauritus, I had been in a 10,000 ton troop ship, which rolled horribly, and in a 17,000 ton Union-Castle liner. Now I was on this monster, the Queen Mary. If asked which ship I preferred, I should say with- out hesitation the Queen Mary as a means of transport, and the small 4,000 ton cargo-ship as a means of sea travel. For on the Queen Mary, it is almost impossible to know that one is at sea, and as I am very fond of the sea, I should preferably take berth on the small ship to enjoy my holidays. I I disembarked from the Union-Castle lines at the end of J une, and after a few weeks of red-tape, running about from office to office in London, sight-seeing and partaking of little food, I at last got onto the boat-train at famous Waterloo, and before long was entering the outskirts of Southampton. After passing through areas of blackened ruins, which once had been the houses of the dockyard workers, we got to the Queen Mary's berth. I shall never forget my first glimpse of her towering up above the sheds -splendid in her black, white and red paint. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 When I stepped off the train, I was greeted by a jolly looking porter who offered to help me wit.h my bags. It was then that I felt rather selfish for leaving England and tried to repel the devil who kept on saying, You are a South African, really. But, I argued with it, I was born in England. Here was the porter, knowing I was going to a land full of everything, while he stayed behind. I quickly thanked him, and foimd the customs queue. At length I stepped on board. The sights that un- folded themselves to me as I explored the ship were in- credible. Imagine a very big and luxurious hotel. Put that same hotel on a ship, and the result is the Queen Mary. There are suites, single cabins, lounges, cocktail bars, a cafe, gymnasiums, swimming pools and all sorts of modern conveniences. There are also two good dance-floors and an orchestra, deck-tennis courts, large decks, movie- theatres, shops, and even dog kennels. In this luxury I lived for four and a half days. Our arrival at New York was wonderful. It was broadcast, and all the ships in sight gave us a welcome. It will take a very great passage of time to erase from my memory the scenes of this last day, and the few before it. -G. M. MacKenzie-Kennedy, VI Sch. CONFESSION OF A ROMAN SOLDIER I watched the long procession wind its way Across the vale and onward up the slope To where the two stood cold and dark and bleak Against the pale, but darkening noon-day sky. I watched the shouting, jeering crowd surge on Mocking, laughing, lead the stumbling man Who seemed about to fall beneath the weight, To lie without a breath upon the ground. I watched their faces, cruel and hard and mean, And saw them laugh at every weakening step, And when at last they reached the chosen spot 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD They quickly put the third deep in its place. I watched them nail him on the wooden cross, And saw the women at his feet kneel down, I heard him speak, in a voice clear and strong, And a trembling seized my body, clutched my heart.

Her frozen, immobile face looked steadily at her work and her fingers moved swiftly with- out conscious effort. It was cold, bitterly cold, and the frost had enclosed the rolling Dutch countryside in a re- lentless grip. The smouldering fire in the grate seemed to reflect and mock old times. The old woman sat very still and huddled in her blanket. A young girl entered from the back of the room and advanced softly to where the old lady sat. Could you put some wood on the fire, dear? The old woman spoke peremptorily, and did not even look up. Certainly, Grandma, if you feel cold. She was a pretty girl, but with a face mature beyond her years. Her eyes had the tired look of one on whom life has been hard. Are you comfortable now, Grandma '? Fine, thanks, my dear. The fire cast shadows across her lined bleak face as she rocked steadily in the semi-light. Her face was immovably reminiscent. Still worrying about Hans, grandma? The old lady looked keenly at the girl. He is dead, she said simply. Nonsense, Grandma, he is still alive. Probably well and happy and has just forgotten to write in his excite- ment at seeing new things. She thought to herself, I hope he's dead, the conceited ..... She realized fully how she had been squeezed out of her Grandmother's affec- tion all her life, how she had been given second choice in everything, while her brother had had all. She discovered then just how sincerely she hoped her brother would never return. Do you really think so ? the old woman said. But she relapsed quickly. He is dead, dead, gone the way of all the rest of my family. She continued knitting. The young girl's eyes, full of longing love, rested on her. The grayness of the night crept in slowly. 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD And then a car was heard. A man, carrying an en- velope, slowly approached the house. It is probably the cablegram of his death, the grand- mother said softly, but hope filled her eyes. Despair fill- ed the young gir1's eyes as she walked swiftly towards the door. She was afraid it was a letter. The old lady sat in her chair. Her pulse was throb- bing wildly. Her creased and wizened face took on a new light and into her memory came a picture of her grandson, running home from school through the snow, with the sharp crinkly frost, then so cheerful, snapping under his feet, and the big house, blazing with light, welcoming him in. How the winters had changed. She knew now she was deathly cold. She looked up, hearing nothing, but she saw the lips form the words, 'Tm sorry. And she could not know that one heart was glad. She felt what she was, an old woman. -J. D. Ross, VA. i1i THE GREAT SCIENTIST The head of the great manufacturing concern natural- ly took his problem to the world's greatest scientist. Sales were dropping over all the nation and soon his company would be bankrupt. Can you help me '? he asked hopefully. The splen- did face of the most remarkable research worker of the ages remained immobile, but the mind so cleverly conceal- ed behind that face was working with the speed of a chain reaction. Here at last was his chance to bring into fruit- ful being the idea nurtured for years in the back of his immense brain. Such a little seed of an idea, thought the greatest personage since the dawn of history, but what re- sults its germination would have upon the nation! With his characteristic brevity and simplicity the great scientist said, If the QXR76 atom constitutes the com- plete solvano-hypocomplex structure of your 27th degree TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 micro-anallurgical hypotheses, to quote the French scien- tist, La Pierretete, 'Je vous aiderai'. The head of the concern left, his mind at rest, for he knew that if any power in the universe could help him, the world's greatest scientist would tame that power for his use. At once the great scientist set to work. There were many obstacles to be overcome before he could even begin to put his carefully planned idea into practice. The ques- tion of procuring an abundant water supply was his greatest problem. The pipes of the bathtub which would serve as his mixing vat had long since rusted from disuse, and the plumber had not yet appeared to repair them. What was worse, he had forgotten, nay neglected Cfor he never forgot anythingj to do his weekly shopping and was completely out of flour. All these difficulties he surmounted with his usual patience and remarkable reasoning ability. The plumber was called upon the telephone, told to come immediately and bring some flour with him. In such a manner did this unequalled personality solve the numerous problems which beset him-often in solving one, solving another. Now all was ready. The greatest thinker since the Frenchman, de L'ane, began the complicated experiment which was to throw all America into a frenzy of ecstacy. He set up the delicate apparatus, which he had in- geniously fashioned from old razor blades and pickled celery stalks, and began to prepare his chemicals. First, however, he dusted his face with flour, as was his custom, in order to reflect better light from the win- dows of his laboratory onto his work. Now he mixed the components carefully and surely, dumping first this, and then that, into his bathtub. Water was added and quickly. but with extreme caution, the mixture was stirred. He made a few tests, and to be sure that the fumes rising from his preparation were not explosive, the great 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD scientist held a lighted match above the vat. The match was immediately extinguished. This last test proved that matters were not as they should be. With ever increasing speed the great scientist added more chemicals, carefully making the necessary cal- culations mentally. This time, a pinch of this and a pinch of that was added. Now the mixture was glowing with in- ward energy, and from it, vapour curled lazily upward, peelinglthe paint from the ceiling. His experiment was almost completed. Once more the great scientist lit a match. The dull boom of a minor explosion reverberated through the laboratory, but little damage was done. Only the walls and ceiling disappeared, and he was left intact as he knew he would be, standing beside his bathtub. The great scientist was disappointed. Something was lacking, he knew. But what? Suddenly, in a flash of genius he realized that he had neglected to add flour. He reached for the flour-bag. It was empty. He had used it all for dusting his face. The world's greatest mind made a decision quickly. With tremendous effort this superman wrote aqletter to the head of the manufacturing combine. Then, turning, he plunged his flour-covered head into the steaming vat, at the same time sweeping razor blades and pickled celery into the mixture. Huge bubbles of a sticky substance rose from the bathtub and enveloped the world's greatest scientist. One of the immense bubbles detached itself from the rest, and with the greatest man in the world inside, drifted across the room, rose in the air, and disappeared into space .... if SF Ill :Xl if The head of the great concern arrived to find the scientist's last words on a. table beside the bathtub. Tears mounted to his eyes as he read, and realized that this man had given his life for humanity. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 The president proclaimed a national day of mourning. For a week thousands of people passed by the simple monu- ment erected by a grateful nation. They meditated thought- fully as they passed, chewing the discovery of the world's greatest scientist, bubblegum. -D. H. E. Cross, VI Sch. - OFF THE RECORD SECOND REPORT OF THE ROYAL COMMISSION Dear Sir: In spite of the result of my associate's visit to T.C.S. I have decided to investigate the subject of exams and to find out if perhaps these instruments of torture have a direct bearing on the sudden rise in juvenile delinquency and increase of opium addicts among the ranks of youth. My probe commenced at 5.30 a.m. when, through the mist which enveloped the sparkling red brick buildings, a small bespectacled youth wormed his way through the pebbles toward the class-room block and gazed disconso- lately upon the time-table. This resulted in a sporadic shivering, whereupon the early riser beat his hairless chest and died in convulsions upon the floor. Could opium have saved him? However, it was not until one hour later that the true horde arose, took up their books and crawled. This group had the appearance of animals, haunted by a fear deeper than physical torture. of a more odious nature 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD than insanity and burning an indelible brand upon the mind! EXAMS. Breakfast had passed, breakfast to soothe the troubled mind and prepare it for the ordeal to follow-scrambled eggs! Soon after this fitting repast a melodious bell tolled the time of trial as two benevolent gentlemen dealt out innocent sheets of printed paper, using their rubber truncheons to good effect on the less conscious aspirants and gently relieving one lad of a large black revolver, with the help of which he had planned to leave this vale of tears and EXAMS. From my vantage point in a light bulb, I was able to view all proceedings easily, and noticed that one suspicious character kept peering intently at his shirt cuff, obtaining great solace from this article of cloth- ing. All went well until a jailer sighted his actions and summoning a gaunt individual enveloped in a dark cloak, had the offending cuff removed together with the arm. With the consoling Words Unlimited detention surging in his ears, the stripling expired into a desk drawer. In a short time a harsh voice broke the silence, ex- plaining that all must cease writing. Two did not heed the warning, but a short burst of rifle fire ended their attempt, and soon the papers were in the arms of the law. A bullwhip aided the pupils from this chamber of horrors, as the hearse made its daily call- Here is thy sting, O Death, O Grave, here thy victory . , -L. D. Rhea, VI Sch.

THE CAPTAIN 'S IMPRESSIONS Tradition and custom at Trinity are exceedingly dif- ficult things to change, as all here or any who have been here. well know, and as I have recently discovered myself! Four football customs have been established. The first is almost but not quite winning the Little Big Four Championship, the second is losing the annual football game with Ridley, the third is playing a house match and the fourth is making the captain write what you are read- ing now. To quote a well known person, we came within an ace of breaking the first custom. Much of the thanks tor getting us as far as we did is due to that same person, for Mr. Hodgetts drilled us in a system of plays that was, as far as I could see, better than, or every bit as good as, any of the ones we came up against. We were a team definitely on the lightweight side, but blocking and conditioning were 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD hammered into us so much, and everyone worked so hard, that in spite of many injuries, we came up as a real threat for the championship. l Most of our exhibition games showed that we still hadn't felt our legs. We played those games against our annual rivals: Pickering, U.T.S., Peterborough, the Old Boys and also an extra game with Malvern. We won only the first two games and hence were far from being con- fident. In fact we were a very shaky group of boys when we emerged on the field to play St. Andrew's. However, in the second half, we finally began to realize what we could do and on getting down to teamwork play, we swept them off their feet. The Ridley game, played under the difficulties of dust and heat showed real drive from beginning to end and it was a wonderful thing to see the long hours of blocking, drills, hard running, plunging and clever quarterbacking pay off with a win. The U.C.C. game came as a sort of anti-climax to many of us. Emphasis seemed to be placed on beating Ridley and then, to a large extent, the tension drained out of us before the U.C.C. game. However, we all felt that Upper Canada had a team well deserving the champion- ship and we heartily congratulate them on it. The second tradition was happily shattered and I hope for good and all. We found that Ridley could be beaten and we proceeded to do it, thus ending the myth that has prevailed here for the past thirteen years, namely that B.R.C. football players were some sort of supermen. The third tradition was also broken. A house match was not played because a majority voted against it. How- ever I hope future Bigside teams will not take precedent from us, because the House game, is, if played with the right spirit, a lot of fun. This brings me to another point about the season as a whole. In spite of the gruelling hours spent practising in the unnaturally hot weather, a spirit of ready wit and good humour and a determination TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 to do their utmost prevailed among all members of the team. including those who knew their chances of getting into many games were slim. Those, to me, are the best and most important qualities that any team can hope to possess. The fourth custom was. as you know now, unfortunate- ly upheld. , ---S.B.B. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At Aurora, October 19, 1947. Won 17-11 In their first Little Big Four contest, Bigside came from behind and defeated a fighting St. Andrew's team 17-11. It was a thrill packed game from start to finish. and the final outcome was in doubt until the very end. S.A.C. kicked off to Trinity to start the game, we failed to make yards and kicked. St. Andrew's then threw a long pass to Errington which brought them to our twenty-five. From here, McKinley attempted a field goal which missed the posts, but was good for a single. Again our attack bogged down with S.A.C. getting possession at half-field, running the ball to our twenty, from which point McKinley kicked a field goal. For the rest of the quarter. the teams seemed to be feeling each other out and there were no good scoring chances. As the second quarter started, the Trinity offense began to click. Bruce, Drynan and Rogers advanced the ball from our thirty-five to their twenty where Rogers threw a pass to Drynan for our first touchdown, which was unconverted. S.A.C. came right back but a fumble on our twenty was recovered by Tessier. We were unable to do anything with the ball and had to kick to the Saints who took over at mid-field. Here they tried an extension and Nold, the St. Andrew's captain, sped fifty yards down the sidelines for a touchdown which McKinley converted. The half ended with S.A.C. ahead 10-5. 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T.C.S. kicked off to start the second half and Law- rence ran the ball back to our fifty before he was finally stopped.S.A.C. then tried two extensions which had work- ed so well in the first half, but our tackling had suddenly improved and they were forced to kick. A few minutes later, one of Rogers' kicks was blocked which set the scene for St. Andrew's to kick another single. Taking the ball on our twenty-five, Bigside opened an attack which fea- tured the running of Rogers, the plunging of Bruce and the inspired blocking of the whole team. This eighty yard march was climaxed with a short end run by Drynan for a touchdown which was converted by Rogers, tying the score 11-11. S.A.C. opened the last quarter with a determined at- tack from their twenty-five. Nold bucked for a first and then scooted around the end for thirty yards before finally being nailed. Before they were stopped, McKinley tried another field goal which fell short of the goal-line. Then Bruce and Rogers, again behind determined blocking, led an attack to the Saints' twenty-five. From here we kick- ed but the kick was returned. T.C.S. gaining the ball on the red and white forty. Bruce bucked for two first downsg and a nice fifteen yard rim by Tessier advanced the ball to their five yard line. From here Tessier went over stand- ing up. Rogers converted. T.C.S. kicked to the Saints and the kick was returned with three minutes to go. T.C.S. held the ball, Wasting time, but were finally forced to kick, leaving S.A.C. deep in their own end. An intercepted for- ward pass by Rogers on the last play left T.C.S. the victors 17-11. Bruce was the best player on the field, While the quar- ter-backing of Gaunt, the running and kicking of Rogers and the line work of Alley shone. For the Saints, Nold and Dale played well, their broken-field rimning being ex- cellent. On the line, McKinley and Simpson were best.

SCHOOL vs. RIDLEY At Toronto October 25, 1947. Wvon 22-18 The School won its second Little Big Four contest of the season, defeating Ridley for the first time in thirteen years. by a score of 22-18. This hard fought and thrilling game took place on Varsity's back campus. The result was in doubt until the final whistle. The deceptive end runs and the well timed blocking were the chief factors that made the difference between victory and defeat, as the School featured a powerful ground attack against Rid- 1ey's passing. The game started with Ridley taking a short kick-off which they recovered on our forty yard line. Both sides were imable to make yards and the ball ended in Ridley territory. Gaunt intercepted a B.R.C. pass and we made a first down on a run by Tessier. Then Ridley caught one of our passes and the play went back and forth in the Trinity end of the field. Finally, a pass from Bongard to Bourne made it 5-0 for Ridley as Fullerton blocked the con- vert. They kicked-off again and Gaunt ran the ball to our thirty, from where Lawson bucked up to centre field. At the end of the quarter, Ridley had possession in their own territory. In the second quarter, Trinity had started to roll when Ridley intercepted a pass behind their own line and managed to kick it up to our fifty. We then marched right up to the B.R.C .goal line on bucks by Lawson and the running of Tessier and Rogers. Ridley gained possession 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD on their own line and kicked but Gaunt ran the ball back to their twenty where T.C.S. surged forward on two bucks by Lawson. Then Rogers ran the ball over for our first major score which was unconverted to tie the score at 5-5. Once again B.R.C. kicked and Gaunt ran it back to our forty-two from where Rogers sent a long spiral over the heads of the Ridley backs and deep into their territory. Perry made a first down and on the exchange of kicks Ridley got possession on their own fifteen. Then Kindy made a good run and Bongard threw a long pass to Cassel- man who raced down the sideline for a touchdown which was converted by Court. For the two remaining minutes of the period, play surged back and forth with the score remaining 11-5 for B.R.C. The School started off the second half very strongly. We received the Ridley kick on our own thirty from where Lawson bucked beautifully for two first downs. Rogers then ran around the end for a first and Lawson bucked through the centre to put us in a scoring position. From the fifteen Rogers fired a pass to Fullerton who was over the line for a major. This was converted by Rogers. We kicked to Ridley who received and, after two downs, punt- ed the ball up to their own forty. The School started an- other offensive and gained two first downs on five con- secutive bucks by Lawson. On a run by Tessier and an- other Lawson buck, we got our third first in a row, which put us on the B.R.C. five yard line. From here, Rogers ran over for his second touchdown which he again con- verted. This score put us in the lead 17-11. We kicked to Ridley who once again sprang into action with Bourne running for a first down. Bongard to Frey and Bongard to Mullet passes gave them two more firsts. Our line then halted the Orange and Black drive and Bongard kicked for a single point. After this, the play went to and fro in the middle of the field for a few minutes. Gaunt in- tercepted a Ridley forward, and Rogers kicked deep into TRl'N'l'I'Y COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71 their end. B.R.C. then made two first downs to end the third quarter. Ridley continued their attack in the final quarter by getting two more first downs in passes by Bongard. This put them on the School fifteen yard line, from where Bourne ran over for a touch which he also converted. Rid- ley, having a one point lead, kicked, and Rogers ran the ball to our forty-five. Tessier skirted the end and Law- son plunged through the centre for a first down. Tessier made two more long runs that put the ball on the B.R.C. ten yard line. Tessier carried the ball again on a reverse and got a touchdown which finished the scoring. For the remainder of the time, the play was very even and the game ended with an exceedingly well-deserved victory for T.C.S. Bongard and Bourne were the standouts for the losers. The names of Gaunt, Tessier, Lawson, Alley and Rogers will long be remembered for the magnificent part they played in such a hard-earned and Well-won victory for the School.

SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Port Hope, November 1, 1947. Lost 13-6. On Saturday, November 1, U.C.C. captured the Little Big Four Football championship by defeating the School 13-6 in a close, hard fought game. U.C.C. fielded a well balanced heavy team which had a difficult job to defeat a battling Trinity team fighting hard until the final whistle. Both teams played good football and the outcome of the game was in doubt until the last few minutes. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The game started with U.C.C. kicking to the Trinity thirty-five, from where Rogers kicked to centre-field. U.C.C. then ran a good series of bucks, climaxed by a pass from Bazos to Rennie with a lateral to Hewitt, who raced fifteen yards for a touchdown. The convert was unsuc- cessful, and the score was now U.C.C. 5, T.C.S. 0. Rogers received the U.C.C. kick-off and ran to the thirty. The play surged back and forth and finally the visitors drove to Trinity's thirty-five. Then their kick, which was fumbled by T.C.S., was recovered by Cork very close to the Trinity goal-line. On the next play, Bazos threw a long pass to Rennie who caught it well behind the touch-line for U.C.C.'s second major. The convert was good, making the score U.C.C. 11, T.C.S. 0. Following Rogers' runback and two smashing bucks by Lawson, T.C.S. kicked to Rennie who ran back to almost centre-field. U.C.C. made two first downs and were then forced to kick and Rogers was rouged, making the score 12-0 in favour of Upper Canada. Rogers kicked from his twenty-five and on the exchange of kicks, T.C.S. took over on their own forty. The School opened up, and a long sleeper pass from Gaunt to Vernon brought the ball to U.C.C.'s twenty-five. The School failed to make yards on three plays. U.C.C. kicked out of danger. T.C.S. then began to march down the field and a pass from Rogers to Tessier brought the ball to the U.C.C. twenty-five. The School drove to the five yard line, and on the following play, Rogers ran around the short end for a touchdown, which he converted, making the score 12-6 in favour of U.C.C. T.C.S. drove from their own end deep into U.C.C. territory and when U.C.C. fumbled on thenext play, Alley recovered for the School. T.C.S. marched to the one yard line but there they lost the ball on downs to U.C.C., and Bazos kicked out of danger as the first half ended. Trinity definitely outplayed Upper Canada in the sec- ond quarter and more than once, U.C.C.'s lead was serious- ly threatened. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 The second half opened, T.C.S. getting possession of the ball on their own thirty. A series of bucks and end runs by both teams followed and then Bazos kicked over the T.C.S. goal-line to Rogers who promptly returned the kick to centre-field where Rennie was brought down. For the remainder of the quarter the play was very even, and it ended with a pass from O'Sul1ivan to Rennie, putting the ball on T.C.S. thirty-five yard line. U.C.C. then kicked deep into the Trinity end and then a short gain and a fifteen yard penalty against U.C.C. for rough play brought the ball to the twenty-five. Successive running plays by Bruce and Rogers placed the ball on the forty-five, and another fifteen yard penalty against U.C.C. for high-tackling, and a plunge by Bruce put the ball on the U.C.C. forty. The School lost the ball on downs and U.C.C. drove to mid-field. Both teams see-sawed back and forth until a kick by Bazos resulted in a single point for U.C.C., making the score Upper Canada 13, T.C.S. 6. For the remainder of the game, both teams hovered around centre-field with T.C.S. fighting hard to overcome the de- ficit against them. However, they were halted when the final Whistle went, ending a very thrilling game. The work of Bazos, Cork, Rennie and O'Sullivan was outstanding for the winners, while the back-field drive of Rogers and Lawson and the excellent defensive work of Vernon and Gaunt stood out for the School.

I ! 74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDDLESIDE FOOTBALL, 1947 Middleside was divided into two teams again this year, a C.O.S.S.A. Team Uunior-under 171, and a School team with no age limit. Unfortunately, as the season advanced there were not enough players to complete two such teams with the result that a few boys had to play for both squads where the schedules didn't clash. The team used the spinner system of Bigside, but on most of the plays this system proved to be too slow in hitting the line. However, it did enable the C.O.S.S.A. team to win five out of their seven games, losing the first and last games. It is felt that the majority of Middleside gained con- siderable knowledge of fundamentals and enjoyed the sea- son to the fullest extent. -D.H.A. MIDDLESIDE C.O.S.S.A. GAMES MIDDLESIDE C.O.S.S.A. vs. OSHAWA JUNIOBS At Oshawa., October 18, 1947. Won 19-7 T.C.S. defeated Oshawa Juniors 19-7 in their third C.O.S.S.A. game. Opening very strongly, Oshawa march- ed down the field, but the School held well with their backs to the wall, Oshawa only being able to kick a rouge. Wil- son led the School in the second quarter to set up a touch- down by Thompson which Wood converted. Wood then scored a major and converted it, leaving Trinity ahead 12-1 at the half. Oshawa came back in the last half on a touch- down pass caught by Sciuk who also caught the convert pass. Wood then made a clever interception on the Trinity fifty and ran for his second major. Trinity converted and gained two more points on rouges to win 19-7. Wood, Wil- son and Hoffman were all stars in the backfield for Trinity while Greenwood and Scowen were best on the line for the School. The outstanding Oshawa players were Auld and Sciuk. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 75 MIDDLESIDE C.0.S.S.A. vs. COBOURG JUNIORS At Port Hope, Ocixiber 21, 1947. VVOn 24-0 T.C.S. defeated the Cobourg Juniors 24-0 to assure themselves of at least a tie for leadership in their league. The School showed its power in the first quarter with Thompson crashing through the line for a touchdown which Wood converted. Wood also ran for an unconverted major. The play evened and Cobourg threatened. Trinity held and beat back an attack forcing the Cobourg quarter to fumble behind his touch-line where he was blocked for two points. The School led 13-0 at half time. The third and fourth quarter were marred by penalties as the strain began to tell on the players' tempers. The School scored on touchdowns by Thompson and Bate. The final score was 24-0 in Trinity's favour. For the losers, Flesch shone. Trinity's overpowering score was due to the excellent quarter-backing of Thompson until he was forced to retire with a broken collar bone late in the game, the good blocking of Howard, and the plunging of Hoffman. The whole team played well, the defensive standouts being Austin and Scowen. Playoff MIDDLESIDE C.O.S.S.A. VS. P.C.V.I. At Port Hope, November 1, 1947. Lost 38-18 In a wide-open, high scoring game, T.C.S. was beaten by a heavier Peterborough team. In the first half, Trinity seemed to have the edge of the play, but Peterborough overcame us in the last half. Trinity drove for a touchdown in the early minutes of the game. Wilson broke loose for a long run and Moffitt went over for the score which was converted. Peterborough retaliated with a touchdown by Wyatt on a long run. Hoff- man led a T.C.S. push which culminated in a touchdown by Wood. The convert failed. In the second quarter, Lee of Peterborough passed to Northcott who sprinted for an un- T6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD converted touchdown. A kick by Wood and a Peterborough fumble set up a rouge by Wood. Runs by Coon and Wyatt and finally a pass to Northcott, who scored, gave P.C.V.I. a 15-12 lead to end the half. Early in the second half, Griffin of P.C.V.I. inter- cepted a Trinity lateral and bolted for a converted touch. The ball was then marched back and forth, Trinity finally getting a touch by Hoffman. Wood converted. Peterbor- ough then scored on a pass which Wyatt picked from the air in the midst of a cluster of players and ran forty yards for a converted major. A run by Wyatt gave Peterborough another touch and Griffen of Peterborough scored a touch and later a single to end the scoring at 38-18 for the visi- tors. Peterborough's tackling and pass receiving were excel- lent, Coon and Wyatt playing very well. For the School, Hoffman was the best all round performer.

MIDDLESIDE OVER 17'S Impressions of the Coach The Middleside 17 team had a very busy season with football an almost daily feature favoured by the excep- tionally warm October this year. Home and home games were played with Upper Canada College Seconds, St. An- drew's College Thirds and Lakefield Firsts as well as one match with Pickering College. A number of boys from the Middleside C.O.S.S.A. team also played in these con- tests and the results of the games were not really indica- tive of the good football played fmuch of the time, at leastll or the spirit and good sportsmanship shown by the team which faced very strong opposition.

THIRDS At Port Hope, October 15, 1947. Won 18-I1 Trinity upset the Saints 18-11 after losing a game to them at Aurora. The School surprised the Saints by out- charging them all through the game. They drove back the Saints and kicked a rouge in the first few minutes. Harvie displayed fine broken field running to get an early touchdown. Hoffman and Wilson scored for T.C.S. respec- tively. The score at the half was 12-5 for the School. The second ha.lf was fairly even with Franceschini and Wilson adding majors, and Trinity scoring a rouge in the third quarter. S.A.C. threatened to score in the dying minutes of the game but lost the ball deep in Trinity territory. Hoff- man bucked it out to the Trinity twenty-five to clinch the game 18-11 for Trinity. MIDDLESIDE vs. U.C.C. SECONDS At Toronto, October 25, 1947. Lost 34-5 The School dropped its second game to a well drilled U.C.C. team in Toronto, 34-5. U.C.C. played hard fast football and capitalized on many of Trinity's errors in the first half for four touchdowns. They were led by Meredith who scored two touchdowns and kicked two converts. Other U.C.C. majors were scored by Sladen, Kabzenstien, Beattie and Miller. Trinity's lone major was scored by Wismer who smashed through the centre of the line on a quarter sneak. For U.C.C., Meredith starred and was ably assist- T8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ed by Miller and Sladen. For the School, the whole team played well but were rather outclassed by a heavier and more experienced U.C.C. squad. . MIDDLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD FIRSTS At Lakefield, November 4, 1947. Lost 24-0 Lakefield easily defeated Middleside 24-0 in Lakefield. Trinity threatened in the opening minutes but Lakefield held the School for three downs inside their own five yard line. Lakefield came back strongly with an excellent pass- ing attack led by Frost. Easson went around the left end to score a second period touch for Lakefield which Ket- chum converted. Lakefield again began to roll, led by Frost's passing which ended in a converted major by Ket- chum. Burroughs and Galbraith both scored unconverted touches and Ketchum kicked two singles. The final score stood at: L.P.S. 24, T.C.S. 0. Lakefield's attack featured excellent passing by Frost and kicking by Ketchum, Hoff- man and Wilson were the School's best.

An inexperienced, unbal- anced smoker team defeated a fast, well trained, hard driv- ing Middleside squad. The Smokers opened the game by being thrown for a loss of ten yards on their first play. Undaunted by this error, they began to show their mettle. Three more plays and Wood of Middleside tossed a pass to Pierce who galloped over for the first touchdown of the game. Somewhat shaken by this cruel blow, the Smokers TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 grimly settled down to play football HJ. Wismer tossed a beautiful pass to Tessier, the Smoker's red-blooded cap- tain , who galloped sixty yards for a major. A convert, and the Smokers led 6-5. Two more touchdowns, and a convert by the Smokers' Gal1oping Ghosts Tessier and Bascom, put the game on ice. A touchdown by Hoffman in the final minutes of play ended Midd1eside's scoring. At full time. chaos ruled. The huge mob poured on the field to hoist high the heroes of the play. Certain smoker power- houses, such as Big Billy Conyers who did some hard plunging, and Babe James were not chaired as the rest, for reasons which your scribe need not explain. However, a good time was had by all, and the smoker boys are now titled as one of the season's undefeated football teams.

Brent 1, Bethune 1 lin a low scoring and well played game, Brent and Bethune tied 1-1. The result of the game was in doubt until the final whistle as both teams played hard through- out. Brent kicked off to start the game and they got pos- session of the ball at mid-field because of illegal blocking by Bethune. A long kick by Deverall put Bethune well in their own end and from there till the end of the first quar- ter, both teams played very cautiously. There was little to choose between the two teams. The first quarter ended without any score. As the second quarter started, Hoff- man and Wood made long gains and Brent was pushed back to their one yard line. However, they got out of danger when Bethune lost the ball on the Brent twenty. The first half ended after both teams see-sawed back and 80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD forth with no long gains by either team. There was still no score. Brent again kicked off to start the second half and Austin ran the ball to the Brent forty-two. Bethune was forced to kick and Wismer was just able to run the ball out from behind his own line. On a change of kicks, Brent got the ball near centre-field and they opened up with a pass from Wismer to Little, and after the ball changed hands several times, the quarter ended with Brent in pos- session on Bethune's thirty-two and still no score. On a kick, Brent recovered a fumble behind the Bethune line but Bethune got the ball on their own fifteen because there was a no yard penalty called against the Brent tacklers. After some good bucking by Hoffman, Wood was able to kick a point and Bethune led 1-0. However, Brent came charging back and after a long pass from Wismer to Deverall, Deverall kicked a point to tie the score, and the game ended soon after. It would be very difficult to pick the individual stars as there was little to choose between the players, who all tried hard throughout the game.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 81 LITTLESIDE FOOTBALL, 1947 An enthusiastic group reported for Littleside when the whistle announced the first practice of the season. Many of the boys had never played before. The group was divided into Littleside A and Littleside HB . A schedule of seven games was enjoyed by the teams. A good spirit was shown by all. New friendships were formed on the field and, in closely contested games. the boys learned the real meaning of team play. As the season progressed, much worth-while material was dis- covered for future School teams. -H.C.H. LITTLESIDE A LITTLESIDE vs. S.A.C. At Port Hope, October 15, 1947. Won 14-1 In a return game on home grounds, Littleside gave a much heavier St. AndreW's fifth team a 14-1 beating. The School scored two touchdowns in the last quarter to clinch the game. Play was quite even in the first half, the School getting two points on kicks by Bongard. S.A.C. fought back in the third quarter but failed to score. In the last quarter, Trinity got two touchdowns on bucks by Ketchum and Stirling, both of which were converted. On the last play of the game, the Saints got their only point on a long kick. For the School, McCrae and Harris were best while S.A.C. had no individual stars. LITTLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD At Port Hope, October 20, 1947. Lost 18-11 Lakefie1d's second team overcame Littleside 18-11 in a determined last quarter drive, coming from behind to win. The School outplayed and outscored the Grove during the first half. Trinity scored on a pass from Southam to Ashton which was not converted. Southam passed again 82 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to Dewar for a converted touchdown which made the score 11-0. Lakefield fought back and kicked a point, and in the second quarter, Rochester broke loose fora major which was converted. In the last half, Lakefield had the edge of the play and drove for two rapid touchdowns in the last quarter. The first came on a pass from MacGregor to Boyd and the second on a buck. Both were unconverted. Lakefield punted a kick across in the final minutes of the game to end the scoring. Ashton and Dewar played well for Trinity, while Boyd and Rochester were best for the Grove. LITTLESIDE vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, October 25, 1947. Lost 11-6 Littleside rolled into U.C.C. late on Saturday morning to play a very close, hard game of football. It started off with both teams fighting hard to score the first point and with neither one succeeding until ten minutes of play when T.C.S. came through with a rouge. For the rest of the quarter and half way through the second, neither team scored. When the breaks came, U.C.C. took the lead with a converted touchdown, which they got by blocking a kick behind the Trinity goal-line. The half ended with U.C.C. 6, T.C.S. 1. In the second half, the home team succeeded with another major after a long run, which they failed to convert. The play continued with the teams working back and forth in centre-field, until finally, with ten minutes left, T.C.S. started a long drive which ended with Harris taking the ball over the goal-line for a touch which was also unconverted. This was the last scoring play of the game and so it ended up with U.C.C. on top, 11-6. In the last quarter with only a few minutes to play, Ketchum's leg was badly fractured. Before this, he was Trinity's main star although the whole team played well. U.C.C.'s team was very evenly balanced and played perfectly as a unit. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 83 LITTLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD At Lakefield, October 29, 1947. Lost 22-6 On a wet day, Littleside journeyed to Lakefield to play against a well-drilled team. T.C.S. started off badly when they fumbled the ball on the kick-off. Gill of Lake- field scored an unconverted touch in the first few minutes of play. While T.C.S. was trying to recover from this shock, Lakefield scored again on a kick over the dead-line. In the second quarter Clarke broke loose for the home team to raise the score to Lakefield 11, T.C.S. 0. Trinity then started to roll, and about half way through the quarter. after a long down-field drive, Trinity scored on a pass from Bongard to Lick. This touch was converted to end the scoring for the first half. For the rest of the game, Lake- field completely dominated the play with Trinity showing up for only short intervals which were not long enough to score. At the end of the third quarter, Lakefield had managed two more unconverted majors and led 21-6. In the final fifteen minutes of the game, they kicked another rouge to finish the game's scoring. For T.C.S., the line in general did a very fine job against good Lakefield plung- m . gT.C.S.--Ashton, Southam, McRae, Lick, Bongard, Pepler ii, Dennys, Luxton, Stirling, Lewis, Burdock, Pitt, Tench, Brodeur iii, Dewar and Gilmour. Littleside House Game November 4, 1947. Bethune 12, Brent 5 In their annual house game, Bethune defeated Brent by a score of 12-5. The game was mainly loosely played and in the first half, each team seemed alternately to dominate the play. In the first quarter, Stirling got an unconverted touchdown for Brent after McKinnon's long run. After three successive tries, backed by Cox's long sweeps around the end, Bethune's Harris Went over at the close of the second quarter. They also failed to convert thus tying the score 5-5. 84 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The second half was dominated pretty well consistent- ly by the Bethune team. Shortly after the opening of the half, Cox kicked a single point, after which Brent made some gains aided by Bongard's kicks. In the last quarter, Bethune marched down the field with Cox bucking for a unconverted major. Brent livened up again but Cox was able to score a rouge which was followed by Brent com- pleting several long passes. Nevertheless, time had run out before they had a chance to score. For Bethune, Cox's kicking and running claimed him as outstanding, while Harris' bucking was very good. Ash- ton, McKinnon and Bongard were standouts for Brent. Bethune-Pepler, Manning, Van Straubenzee, Lick, Peters, Cox, Martin, Harris i, Gilmore, Burdock, Welsford and Potter. Brent-Ashton, Stirling, Tench, Lewis, Luxton, Cleland, Bird, Southam, Dewar, McRae, McKinnon and Bongard. 1-i- LITTLESIDE B Getting off to a late start this year, Littleside B were able to arrange only one game against Lakefield. They did, however, play four games against the Junior School, two of which they won. On la rather wet November 5, the team journeyed to Lakefield to play a team comprised of their J .S. and Under Fourteens. Trinity received and were held in their own end of the field during the first quarter, Lakefield finally kicking a point to open the scoring. In the second quar- ter, Littleside drove down the field on fine playing by Osler and Smith ii, and came within twenty yards of Lake- field's goal-line. They were stopped only by time, but not without Gill kicking a single to tie the score at the half 1-1. Trinity kicked off to open the second half and after holding Lakefield for three downs, Smith ii ran through the middle of the line for twenty yards to score the only major tally of the game, giving Littleside a 6-1 lead. The last quarter saw Lakefield throwing passes desperately TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 85 but to no avail and the game ended with Trinity the vic- tors by a 6-1 score. Symons, the captain, and McGregor ii called the signals well and Butterfield i, in spite of wet weather, handled the centre position faultlessly, with Osler, Gill and Smith playing good football, both defensively and offen- sively. The tackling of Gordon, Timmins ii and Farley, coupled with the fast charging and solid blocking of the line, gave the backfield ample support. It is to be hoped that while at the School, the boys will continue to play as well as they did on Littleside B , Littleside B --Symons, Smith, Butterfield i, Adamson, Gordon, Timmins ii, Farley, Gill, MacGregor iii, VandenBergh, McGregor ii, VVilding.

H. Gaunt and I. F. H. Rogers. ..... . Fl Z ,ef can SOCCER - 1947 The main impression left upon the coach this year was that of a team which improved greatly in the two months' play but which has still a lot to learn about the game in the field of ball control. The desire to pass the ball to a team-mate was there. The ability to make the pass good was lacking. Enthusiasm, patience, skill in taking up positions, willingness to tackle were all present late in the season, as the game with Trinity College proved, but the forwards had difficulty shooting, the halves in pass- ing and dribbling, the backs in clearing to a member of their own side. As captain, McDowell was unlucky to be kept out of two games by injuries and his presence in the side at Trinity College showed us what a fine leader he is. En- thusiasm never lagged as it did in both U.C.C. games. It took Spencer's goal in the second half of the second U.C.C. game to put the drive in the team which was sadly need- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ed. Cox was always likely to score goals and has the best shot on the team. He seemed to find it difficult to get shots away, however. Bogue's defensive work was very good at times, and Burland positioned himself well. It was always a comfort, however, to have as safe a goalkeeper as Swepy behind the backs-because of miskicking. Sweny's anticipation and running out to save was splendid. He played very well all season. The real joy in the season wa.s the practice day by day. Chitty, Graham, Mackenzie, Macklem, Ketchum and Watts were always ready to step into the position of any first team player who failed to keep up to standard and their keen and friendly rivalry was in part responsible for the improvement which was made. -E.R.B. SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Port Hope, October 19, 1947. Tied 3-3 In their second game of the season, Bigside Soccer tied 3-3 with U.C.C. in a thrilling game. The play was featured by the spirited drive of the T.C.S. team, which came from behind a three goal deficit to tie the game in the second half. In the first half the play was very even, with both teams having several opportunities to score. U.C.C. managed to get one point on a shot by Bussel which hit a T.C.S. player and went through the goal. The second half began with Gurr and Rowan of Upper Canada scoring two quick goals in the first ten minutes. This gave U.C.C. a 3-0 lead over the School. Trinity fought back hard and scored on a combined effort by Kennedy and Spencer. This was followed by two amazing shots by Cox which both beat the U.C.C. goalie. For the remainder of the half, T.C.S. pressed hard but the score remained at 3-3 until the end of the game. 88 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ' Bussel, Butterfield and Moffat were the best for Upper Canada while Cox and Sweny were outstanding for the School.

Tied 2-2 In their last match of the season, the School. streng- thened by the return of McDowell, tied a strong Trinity College team 2-2. Although the ground was fairly soft, the conditions were good for such a late date in the season and the game was played at a fast pace throughout. At the start of the first half Trinity pressed hard and were rewarded by scoring on a shot by Pearson which was deflected into the goal. Being behind, the School fought hard and evened the score when McDowell split the Trinity defence and drove a shot past the goalie. However, before the end of the period Trinity took the lead when Dawson slipped the ball past Sweny from a scramble in front of the goal. The first half ended with the score 2-1 in favour of Trinity. In the second half both sides put forth renewed efforts and the kicking and tackling on both sides was very good. T.C.S. dominated the play and after about fifteen minutes Cox tied the count on a good shot. This goal completed the scoring and for the remainder of the game the play see-sawed from one end to the other. The final score was T.C.S. 2, Trinity 2. For Trinity College Bill Cox and Dawson played ex- tremely well. While the standouts for the School were McDowell and Mike Cox. T.C.S.-McDowell lcapt.J, Sweny, Bogue, Burland, Rogers ii.

Brent 4, Bethune 0 Brent trounced Bethune 4-0 in the annual Bigside house soccer game. Fortified by two imports, a well co- ordinated Brent team led all the way to defeat easily an individualist team from Bethune. The score was only kept within reasonable limits by the very poor shooting of the Brent forwards around the goal. Brent coasted through the first half, led by Chitty's two goals, which came off beautiful passing plays. Soon after the beginning of the second half, Chitty scored again. Then came the play-of the game: Gaunt took a free kick near centre-field and the ball sailed under the bar untouched. This closed the scoring. The steady play of Cox and the defensive work of Rogers ii were best for Bethune. The stellar play of Sweny, Chitty's three goals and the fine play of Gaunt stood out for Brent.

In a return game with Upper Canada College, the T.C.S. second team went down to defeat, 2-0. The game, played on a field much larger than our own, was very close, but Trinity failed to capitalize on her scoring opportunities. Both of the U.C.C. counters came in the first half, Simons scoring the initial point from directly in front of the goal and Jamieson booted the second with a hard angle shot which bounced off the top of the goal. T.C.S. pressed several times but could not find the range. In the second half. both teams were slowed by the excessive heat and Q0 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD humidity but they kept the ball moving quickly from one end of the field to the other. Codouniz, the Upper Canada centre forward, was the outstanding man on the field as time and again he organized rushes into T.C.S. territory. Jamieson also played well for U.C.C. Graham played a fine game for the School while Ketchum played well at right wing. Paterson, as goalie, also played a good game. T.C.S.-Watts, Chitty, Paterson ii, Graham, MacKenzie, Panet, Bovey, Ketchum i, Macklem i, Aitken, Carroll. Middleside House Soccer Game November 15, 1947. Bethune 3, Brent 1. On a cold Saturday afternoon, Bethune defeated Brent in the annual Middleside house soccer game. The first half was fairly evenly contested and it ended with the score 1-0 for Bethune on a goal by Martin. Brent struck back in the second half when Chitty scored on a pass from Thompson ig but two more goals by Martin put the game on ice for Bethune.

This year, however, the entries were only a scant ten compared with other years when the num- ber of competitors usually ranged from twenty to thirty. Despite the small entry, the kicking and catching was nevertheless at its usual high standard. As in the pre- vious years the general run of events consisted of three kicks, three catches and three passes. In this year's com- petition, Gaunt came out with top honours enabling him to win the cup with the score of 66 out of 90. McPherson was his nearest rival with the score of 61. The next three, who came very close to one another, were Rogers 56, Bruce 54 and Goering 53. THE OXFORD CUP RACE The fifty-first annual running of the Oxford Cup took place at 2.30, November 24. Running conditions were about the worst possible. Snow had fallen all day and con- tinued to fall during the raceg the ground was wet and slippery and a driving east wind was blowing. The start was one of the fastest in getting away and the runners soon became lost in the swirling snow. As soon as they were out of sight, masters hibernated in cars and a royal snowball battle among the boys raged up and down the road. And so time flew until the cry rang out, Here they come . Three dots appeared along the road. Only a few yards separated themg it was a close race, even to the finishing line. Drynan was the winner with McGregor i and Wood i closely following. Drynan's time of 28 minutes 30.8 seconds was really a magnificent effort considering the Weather. All who took part are to be congratulated on TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 93 their fine showing.

Boys taking part in some other sport are now excused from these breath taking struggles! This year, the teams are evenly matched C?l, and more keenly con- tested matches are being played. The teams consist of at least twelve boys and two masters. The league is divided into two groups with each team playing three games. The teams which have won their divisions will meet in the play- offs. The team that wins will receive cups, kindly given once again by Mrs. Duggan. Tennis With three hard courts, the Jellett, Ewart Osborne, and Pangman, probably more tennis than ever before has been played at the School since last spring. Playing began on March 17 and the courts were used until the half-term break on November 7. 94 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 4, ..., .X . -. ..

Spencer TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD JUNIOR SCHOOL RECORD We wish all members of the Junior School a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Our Hallowe'en Party went off well again this year. The costumes were very varied and many people put a lot of time and ingenuity into their creation. It has been de- cided to set a limit on the length and breadth of some of the entries for next year as the parade was held up on several occasions by an entry getting stuck in the door! Prizes were awarded as follows: Best Entry: The Ship fMuntz, Wrightl, and The Caterpillar lMartin, Hylton. et al.Jg Funniest entry: Dog Sled CLevey, Huntl and Baby Carriage lTaylor, Christielg Most original entry: United Nations iSpencerJ and Confucius,' iGodfrey il. A special mention goes to the Prep boys for their Robin Hood and Little John . Our sincere thanks to Sid Lambert and Ed Huycke for doing such a good job of refereeing in our Ridley game. We are also very grateful to Mrs. Alan Stewart for a gift of books and heavy school sweaters. For the first time in any season the J .S. Rugby team sported numbers on their backs. These were the kind gift of Mr. J . W. Seagram and were greatly appreciated by all members of the team. ' Our series of scrimmages with Littleside B was very successful this year largely due to the spirit of good sports- manship shown by Littleside and by their coach, Wood. The practice and experience we gained in these games con- tributed much towards our successful season. THE STORM Clouds clash! and hollow echoes sound aloud Through high and tow'ring mountains of the West. What mighty sound! True Nature at its best! The striking flash and then thunderclap loud! Q6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Rain beats down from many a darkened cloud Washing away the deep rich soil from rest, Down to canyons and valleys below, lest They too should change to rock having been proud. And thus the mighty battle rages on Mid clash, and clap, and rain, and blinding flashg But suddenly it softens, and no more Do torrents race down slope. Quietly dawn Wins out against the howling and the rash And terror-striking wind. The storm is o'er! -R. J. Anderson, Form IIAI. 1 THE FIRST DAY I had seen the School before, last Thanksgiving to be exact, so I knew what it would look like, but that did not make me feel any better! It was the first time I'd ever left home for any period of time and I was not feeling too happy about it! The taxi had brought us to the door of the School be- fore we had really come to our senses. There were only three of us who were going to the Junior School: Seagram, dePencier and myself. As I walked up the sidewalk, I saw two other New Boys Whom I knew in the doorway. I did not know either of them very well but on your first day you are glad to see anybody you know. Fortunately for us, we were given the whole of the next day to ourselves as the Old Boys did not arrive until the next evening. That still did not prevent us from dread- ing their arrival. As soon as we had taken our bags to our dormitory and cleaned up, the bell for supper went. After supper, we went outside and conversed in small groups about what the Old Boys did to cheeky little New Boys and assured each other that everything would be alright after the iirst F F' 4 :J 3 LL f: 3 CU n T Z 3? v-4 'SJHJQ 77 1 A v : -5 P: c TU FT W c F' T' .-4 V5 -.

Of course, nobody really believed what he said or what he heard but he got comfort from talking to people who were in the same situation as he was. We were called inside at 7.45 and our lights were turn- ed out at 8.15. There were two other New Boys in my dorm. We talked most of the night about anything that came into our heads. We got up fairly late the next morning and had a good breakfast. After breakfast we were shooed outside Where we spent the day playing touch-rugby or just sitting around and talking. At one o'clock they served us a good lunch which perked up our spirits considerably, but the impending doom of the arrival of the Old Boys still hung heavily over us. At last evening came and the Old Boys began to arrive. To us they were a noisy boisterous crowd and we stayed well out of their way. But at last supper-time came and at the meal there was no escaping them! It might, how- ever, have been worse! The Old Boys only looked us over like prize cattle and made us fetch everything they needed from the kitchen and clear off the first course dishes. We went to bed early again that evening, but I am quite sure most of us were a lot happier than the first night we had slept there. -P. Denny, Form III. .1 DON'T TRY IT - It was a cold windy night with the snow falling fast and heavily. It was Christmas Eve. Late that night I was awake with my nose rubbing against the Window looking out into space. Suddenly there came a faint tinkle, slowly becoming louder until it sounded like small dinner bells ringing. Then into sight came a large sleigh pulled by eight reindeer prancing and dancing through the air towards our house. Q8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD It landed on our roof top as silently as a mouse. I saw an old man get out. Of course it was Santa, with his pack of all things good. Then, as he started walking, he disappeared out of my sight. I was certain he would come down the chimney, so down the stairs I went and hid behind the door by the fire- place. I waited and waited but still no Santa. Where could he be? Many thoughts flashed through my mind but finally I was convinced he was stuck high in the chimney. I sprang to the fireplace and looked up, but all I saw was the dark sky and the stars shining brightly a.bove. Where he had gone, I do not know, so back to bed 1 went. In the morning when I ran downstairs to see what Santa had left, I found not a thing! So from then on I have never tried to spy on Santa because he always knows, and I advise you not to try it either. -Eric Jackman, Form IIB. THE DESERTED BARN High on the crest of a solitary hill, its grey-brown, weather-beaten planks similar to the drab surroundings of dingy rock, lonely woodlands and meadows, stood a dila- pidated barn. The loft was strewn with scattered straw, covering loose, cracked boards which would have creaked had anyone ever walked on them. A rusty, time-worn pitchfork was standing upright in a corner, imbedded in a heap of loosely packed hay where some weary farmer had flung it after a strenuous day's work. The piles of hay, infested with tiny tunnels, were havens of mice. Here they led their entire busy lives, eluding the half wild stable cats who occasionally raided them. High in the rafters lay the nests of many generations of robins filled with empty egg shells, while in the highest corner of the peak all by itself was the home of a screech owl. From here at dusk, he would make his nightly hunt- ing trips, and having secured his prey, would return to de- Q .i ' 'inaifi bE 'l' i 42-xii-mlilsu Tffif. 4-ffl '2- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 99 vour it triumphantly on the crest of the roof, after send- ing forth his shrill laugh, a challenge to the world. Down below in the lower section of the barn, the stalls were still standing, their rotten posts imbedded in the soft ground. On the earth at the foot of some of the mangers. a few grains of soggy oats remained half trampled into the ground. In a corner was an ancient plow, a few rusty iron bars, and a much-patched bicycle tire. Cobwebs were everywhere and over everything lay a brooding silence ex- cept for the chirping of the robins in the rafters. The barn itself suggested something desolate and soli- tary as if it had been cast aside by man forever. It was as if some man had bought it, toiled over it, grown his crops and tended to his stock, until at last, because of a serious drop in his income, he had left it for the city. Now. after so many years of desertion, the wild had reclaimed it. Here they led a happy existence, unmolested by man and secure in the knowledge that none would trespass in this solitary region. -E. L. Clarke, Form IIA. .i ATHLETICS Rugby Through an excellent sense of team play and general co-operation, this year's Rfugby team has had a very suc- cessful season. Few of us had any very great hopes for the season when we turned out for the first practice and it took a good three weeks before the light began to dawn. When a team plays well as a unit, it is difficult, and indeed unnecessary, to mention individual players. On the other hand, it would be hard to close any remarks on our season this year without some mention of the first-class work done by our Captain, McDerment, and also by Wright, the quarter-back and Vice-Captain. Their leadership and skill contributed greatly to our success. 100 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Record of Games Game Points for Points against Lakefield at T.C.S. ......... .................... 1 6 '6 S.A.C. ............................,,........... ............,,.. 7 11 Ridley ...........................................,....,... ....,..... 1 3 11 Lakefield at Lakefield .......... .......... 1 2 6 U.C.C. ............................................... .......... 3 0 6 Total points for ........................ 79 Against 40 First Team COIOIIIS The following have been awarded First Team Rugby Colours for the 1947 season: R.

They opened strongly with a power attack by McDerment and Martin, McDerment finally going over for an unconverted touchdown. McDerment quickly added another touchdown and the half ended 10-0 in favour of Orchard. Rigby opened the second half with plunges and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 103 end runs that finally resulted in Levey going over for a touchdown. Orchard retaliated with another power attack out of which McDerment got another touchdown. That ended the scoring in the game. Second Game, November 12 A rejuvenated Rigby house team won the second house game by a score of 16-10. Rigby completely dominated the play in the first half scoring three touchdowns. The first of these was by Levey and was converted. Wright and Muntz rapidly added two more unconverted touchdowns so that the score at half-time read 16-O in favour of Rigby. In the second half the Orchard team began to fight des- perately. McDerment succeeded in scoring two unconvert- ed touchdowns but the game ended without further scor- mg. Third Game, November 13 Orchard House managed to win the Rugby cup by de- feating Rigby by a score of 34-6 in the final game.

EDITORIAL Lately there has been a great deal of heated discus- sion on the merits and demerits of our present educational system but an article by Philip Wylie in a recent issue of The Atlantic , entitled Safe and Insane casts new light on this theme. Some psychologists claim to see a similarity between each person's development and the evolution of the species. The infant is the instinctual animal: the tot the savage with 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD , its primitive traitsg the grade pupil is the advancing law- less barbariang the adolescent is the medieval mystic: tinally there is the adult if he has passed through the other stages, for how can a person unable to live in a primitive world live in a civilized one? Philip Wylie says, however, . . . the last fifty years of civilization have utterly ruined childhood , for it has prevented the child from engaging in these phases. Urban life with all its necessary restric- tions for protection of property, and for safety, as exempli- fied by the play-pen, has prevented the child from an ex- pression of its natural instincts. In open country with its woods, fields and lakesides, the child has complete freedom to follow these without inconveniencing anyone: but in the city in order to protect property it is necessary to restrict children. Thus under the excuse of safety, they have been sacrificed to civilization, for the sake of adult convenience and freedom from worry. This has not been without results. The resulting fustration has caused the child to rebel against the city property which thus is his enemy instead of friend and this shows up in property damage and juvenile delinquency. The effects also show up in later life in several forms. The modern spectator-sports craze is due to a lack of oppor- tunity to play games during childhood in cities: the aggres- sive businessman revenges himself on society by exploit- ing it without regard to human welfareg twenty percent of our population become hopeless neurotics and insane be- cause of a destitute childhood. Communism and Fascism are in effect merely attempts to manage what Wylie calls the increasingly infantile behaviour in increasingly in- dustrial states by acting as an absolute authority and protective parent. It would seem then, as Philp Wylie says, that the only solution is to allow children to experience the evolutionary progress of their ancestors by the process of adventure, and experience increasing to suit their maturity, rather TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 0 than by trying to shield and protect them. After all, a normal childhood will contain normal perils and ex- perience will teach prudence and self-reliance which are the greatest protection against any danger in the long run. Experience is still the best teacher and the most careful supervision will not prevent dangers anyway. It would seem definite from this that the child with the country environment has a deiinite advantage and in that respect it would also seem that at a School in the country like ours, we enjoy the same advantage. Not only have we the Whole countryside in which to roam without bothering others, but we have ample opportunity for games and other boyhood desires which the city does not permit. The School is a Whole community organized chiefly for the boys' beneiit and perhaps this is one of the reasons that such Schools have a reputation for building character and sound adults. The purpose of education is, after all, to develop sound adults. -R.L.W. Q. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD hem l mira i The Rev. F. H. Cosgrave, M.A., D.D., former Provost of Trinity College, Toronto, spoke as follows in Chapel on the first Sunday in Advent, November 30: We keep Christmas by a pilgrimage to Bethlehem to join in the adoration of the Holy Child: O Come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord. We join with the Shepherds and the Wise Men in the devout contemplation of the mystery of the Incarnation. Who for us men and for our salvation came down from Heaven and was incarnate of the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary and was made man. And then after Christmas we come away praising God for all the things which we have seen and heard. Apart from this pilgrimage to Bethlehem, Christmas has no meaning. It is the celebration of the greatest and most mysterious event in human history: TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 O Little town of Bethlehem How still we see thee lie -Xi it Ill Q Il The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. In ancient and medieval times men made pilgrimages to sacred or holy places. Sometimes they undertook the diiiicult and dangerous journey to Palestine to visit Bethle- hem, Nazareth and Jerusalem. A Dominican Friar of the fifteenth century named Felix Fabre gives us a long account of such a pilgrimage and describes his emotions and those of his fellow pilgrims as they arrive in the Holy Land and go. up to Jerusalem. ' What an experience that was for them! But at Christmas the Christian still makes his pil- grimage. We say with the shepherds, Let us now go even imto Bethlehem and see this thing which has come to pass, which the Lord had made known unto us. Charles Dickens Wrote once of What Christmas means to me as I grow older. Well it should mean this: that God is no longer far away-behind the clouds. The light of the Eternal has broken through our darkness. The Son of God has passed this way and sanctified all human rela.tions. That changes our whole outlook upon human life. It saves multitudes of men from despair. It gives them hope and peace in the face of so much that would destroy their hope and peace. It adds significance to every- thing we touch and everything we do and assures us that We have a destiny which passes all our power of concep- tion and imagination. The Bible On Sunday, December 7, the Rev. J. dePencier Wright of Bowmanville delivered the sermon, taking as his theme that book of books-the Bible. This literary masterpiece was 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD not written by scholars, but by simple people charged with a mission, 'to inspire higher morals in mankind and to deal with the soul of man together with his relation to the living God so that one may truly come to know oneself. After dealing briefly with the Old and New Testaments and discussing the transition from the semi-mythical literature of the former to the true vivid portraits of Jesus in the latter, the visiting preacher closed by urging us to read the Bible carefully as it contained a message for us all. A Christmas Eve of Long Ago On January 11, the first Sunday in the new term, the Chaplain talked to the School on the boyhood life of Christ. He told of Mary's Wanderings on a Christmas eve, early in the life of Christ, looking for the boy, Who had wan- dered off. She finally found him with two other boys at their home and as she was taking Christ home he told her that even as young as he was, he must be about his father's business. Thus ended a sermon Which, in its tell- ing, was quite new and different from most of the sermons that have been given. True Religion On Sunday, January 18, the School was privileged to hear the Rev. R. L. Seaborn, M.A., B.D., rector of Cobourg, and Dean-Designate of Quebec. Dr. Seaborn chose for his text the quotation from the story of the Prodigal Son, A certain man had two Sons . He then went on to say that we should live in the right relationship with God. We should treat him as a loving Father, for He treats us all as his sons. Secondly, we must live in the right relation- ship with our fellow men, Dr. Seaborn said, learning to treat them as our brothers. We thank Dr. Seaborn for coming to speak to us, and we wish him the best of suc- cess as the new Dean of Quebec. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T On January 25, in his second sermon in the Lent term, Mr. Bagley dealt with the reward which those who strive on earth shall receive in heaven, with reference to the mis- conceived and misunderstood ideas concerning the day of judgment. The Hebrews thought that on the day of judg- ment in the after-life, all sentences would be meted out impersonally and systematically, but because of its un- Christian principle, this impression of God's justice is dis- credited by many. However, we need not cast away this idea completely but merely mould it to fit our own ideas of Christianity as they are to-day. At the last judgment theife will be no sifting of the evidence but a simple rejec- tion of the sinful by God and an acceptance of the good into his realm of divine love. The entrance to this life eternal is a narrow gate and few at the present time seem to be finding it, yet there is room in it for all and many that are last shall be first. The Carol Service Amid the usual setting of Christmas, snow, exams. many friends and Old Boys, the annual Carol Service was held on Sunday, December 14. With the singing of Silent Night outside the Chapel. the Service commenced and this was followed by a hearty singing of Adeste Fideles by all members of the School who obviously enjoyed their line . The Choir, under the able direction of Mr. Cohu, pro- duced a rich and varied programme of special Christmas music beginning with the Bach Chorale Break Forth O Beauteous Heavenly Light , which was greatly appreciated by all. This was followed by three carols Joseph and the Angel , Shepherds Shake Off Your Drowsy Sleep , and Our Brother is Born , the last of these being sung with great effect by the Junior School. After the Old English Carol Good People, Give Ear , and Past Three S TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD O'clock a new carol added to the Service, the Choir sang Good King Wenceslas , the solo parts being very capably handled by Kennedy, as the King, and Norman, as the Page. The two succeeding carols, the 16th Century Huron Indian Carol, 'Twas in the Moon of Winter Time and Ding Dong, Merrily on High are established favorites and continued their appeal. Handel's And the Glory of the Lord was done remarkably well and acted as a fitting climax to the Choir's efforts. Several of the standard carols were sung throughout the Service, and these were all rendered with great relish by both the School and the Back-row choirs . The lessons were read by the chosen representatives from groups in the School such as the Junior School, the New Boys, the Choir, the House Officers, Seniors, the Sacristans, followed by the Head Prefect. Mr. Tottenham 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.

Hugel C73-'81J. The prize is to be given annually to the boy who sub- mits the best essay on a subject connected with Geology and Mining in Canada. It will be a cash prize of 356000, the hope being that the money will be spent on books for the winner's library. Norman Hugel was at T.C.S. from 1873 until 1881 and won iirst place in the R.M.C. entrance examinations in his final year. He graduated with honours as a C.S.M., in 1885, having won the Governor General's Silver Medal and first place in Drills and Exercises. He was commissioned in the Royal Engineers and served in the South African War from 1899 until 1902. He won the Queen's Medal with five clasps and the King's 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHCOL RECORD Medal with two clasps. Twice he was mentioned in des- patches. He was promoted to Major and in 1910 became Lieutenant-Colonel. , In the war of 1914-1918 he was Commander of the Dover defences, and served at Gallipoli. He retired in 1918 and devoted himself to mining engineering. He died on March 10th, 1944. The School will value this prize very highly and we hope many boys will submit essays. The Debating Society The Debating Society recently lost its first inter- school debate with S.A.C. Gur team was very graciously treated by its hosts, and it is to be hoped that we may return the compliment in the near future. This term three new members have been elected into the Society: Carson, Elliott, and Wismer. Two intra-school debates have been held since Christmas and there seems to be considerable talent in the society. Out of twenty-one members, eleven will be debating against other schools, and there are only three members who have not already taken part in a School debate. Altogether the Society seems to have got off to a good start. Tl..l. The Political Science Club At the second regular meeting of the Political Science Club held last fall, Mr. Hodgetts gave a brief but informa- tive talk on the origins and aims of Canada's only major socialist party, the Co-operative Commonwealth Federa- tion. Mr. S. R. Ryan, a lawyer and former mayor of Port Hope, now serving as a Conservative organizer, spoke at the first two meetings of this term, he first explained the complicated workings of political parties before elections, and he then told us what he considered the Conservative Party stood for. Since the last issue of the Record, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 R. S. Carson has been elected Treasurer and J. S. Morgan has become a member of the club. The Dramatic Society ' The Christmas entertainment this year was again edited by the Dramatic Society. The cast of the Mar- riage Proposal , one of the Society's plays, which was put on at that time, was invited to give a repeat performance for Port Hope at an Amateur Night held at St. Mark's Parish Hall. Again it was entirely unrehearsed, but in spite of this, it was by and large a success. The original cast-Fulford, Rhea and Taylor-played, with the addition of McDowell as prompter. This term the society has decided to try its hand at serious drama, and Outward Bound by Sutton Vane, has been chosen as the play for the Easter entertainment. It is to be hoped that the tradition started by Captain Applejackn and The Queen's Husband will be maintained in this new field.

When we had all taken our places, the Headmaster said Grace and the festivities got under way. First, after an introduction by a blast of trumpets, Gaunt read the Official Proclamation inviting everyone to eat well and to enjoy himself. Another trum- pet blast followed and the Head Prefect faded from the centre of attraction. The traditional procession of chefs then came in carrying the boar's head, the Yule Log, and Plum Pudding. The boisterous energetic jester came in just behind them. When the procession had reached the top of the Hall the choir sang several carols from the balcony in the glow of the candlelight. This made a very impressive picture and one that fitted into the atmosphere perfectly. Needless to say they sang at their customary best. As usual Mrs. Wilkin and her assistants gave us a delicious Christmas Dinner, and we should like to thank her for it. The Dramatic Society worked out a new system this year. Instead of saying that the Christmas Entertain- ment would start at 7.30 and then be fifteen minutes late, they scheduled it to start at 7.45 and were right on time. This was the second year that the Dramatic Society has edited all the plays that were put on, and again this has proved very successful. All the skits were quite good but one deserves special mention. The title was taken from a famous novel by Ernest Hemingway and the actors were the rulers of the School. They were displaying the boys' manners to the whole audience CWhat did the visitors think?l. We admit it was extremely funny but if our manners are like that we should be ashamed to say so. The Dramatic Society sponsored two plays in the Christmas entertainment this year. The first and principal play. meant to give the newer members some acting ex- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 perience, was The Rehearsal, a comedy in one act by Maurice Baring. This play is about Macbeth when it was first being rehearsed in 1606. Shakespeare is pictured as an amiable, polite but unimportant playwright at the mercy of the rudeness of the producer and stage manager, and the pompousness of the star actor. The sinking of Shakespeare to the level of a modern second-rate play- wright becomes very amusing considering the light in which he is regarded today. The play was well directed by Mr. Dale, and the actors were: Boulden, Chester, Ful- ford, Macklem ii, Paterson ii, Pitt, Taylor, Timmins i and Woods i. The Marriage Proposal by Anton Chekhov was also put on by the Society. This is a farce about a timid lover who cannot find enough courage to propose to his prospec- tive fiancee. The most striking feature of this play was that it was completely unrehearsed. The mere sight of Natalia, the all too willing girl, ably played by D. Fulford, was, however, enough to raise probably the biggest laugh of the evening, iexcepting of course, those raised by the masters' skitl. The other two parts were taken by Rhea and Taylor. The music produced by the H20 Trio C2 drops and a dripi with piano, accordian, and guitar was very popular and the magician proved quite fascinating to the audience. As for the Feudin' and Fightin' Trio perhaps the less said the better, though it must be admitted they were funny. The Still Alarm , a skit about the nonchalant attitude of the occupants of a burning hotel, was an excel- lent effort. This year, surprisingly enough, tradition was broken and the entertainment was over by 9.45, affording the boys ample rest before the gruelling General Knowledge Test of the following morning. All the participants in the evening's programme should be congratulated on a splendid performance. They gave 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD us an excellent show and it was a very enjoyable way of spending the last night of term. The programme:- ' 1.

The money collected by the scheme, S96.00, is being used to buy food and send it to schools in England. The tickets which sold for ten cents apiece were all put in the cushion cover and one of the smallest boys of the School, Vanden- Bergh, picked the winning ticket. Sandy Heard was the proud winner of the beautiful cover which was maroon in colour and had a School crest on it. l 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD New Privileges On the night of January 11 a new list of School privileges appeared on the bulletin board. The 'following boys have been awarded Senior's privileges, A. Kingman, N. F. Thompson, and the following are now House Officers, R. D. Fullerton, M. E. Wright, T. K. Drummond and C. M. Taylor. The Record wishes to congratulate them. Movies in the Hall On Saturday, November 30, the School was once more entertained with a reasonably good selection of three short movies. The first two were Arthur Rank produc- tions in the series The Modern Age dealing with World affairs. They included Tomorrow By Air , a review of air transportation and Palestine , dealing .with this current problem and expressing both Arab and Jewish attitudes. The evening ended with a not-too-enlightening movie entitled How to Ski . Thanks should be given to Mackenzie and his staff for their successful running of the projector and for the evening's entertainment in general. The Football Dinner December 3 . The Football Dinner this year, as usual, was a great success, beginning with an excellent meal and ending with some very good speeches. After the sumptuous dinner was over, the Headmaster congratulated the members of Bigside. and then he read some amusing excerpts from the diary of a T.C.S. boy of 1874. Gaunt then spoke a few words and he was followed by the coaches of last term's various sports. Mr. Hodgetts, speaking on scholastics and sports, said that we are one of the few schools left which place prime emphasis on scholastics. The captains then spoke, headed by Bruce who handed the glory of the season to Mr. Hodgetts. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 Colonel Norman Macaulay, an Old Boy who was on two of the School's championship teams, enlarged on Mr. Hodgetts' theme, saying that a man with a well trained brain had more chance of getting ahead than a man with a well trained body. Jim Kerr, Secretary of the Old Boys' Association in Toronto, then presented his own cup for the most valuable player on Bigside which Was won jointly by Gaunt and Rogers i. Gaunt also won the kicking and catching cup. Sweny was then presented with the cup for the best player on Bigside Soccer. Mr. Kerr regaled us with some stories which provided a large portion of the evening's mirth. Mr. Vernon then spoke on the Old Boys and ended by proposing a toast to them. Mr. Bruce, the cap- tain's father, gave a few congratulatory words to the team. talking as a rabid fan of the game, and then one of the longest football dinners in our history was brought to a close with Goering leading the group in Roll The Score Up . Toronto Conservatory String Quartet On Friday, December 5, the School was privileged to hear a recital by the Senior String Quartet of the Toronto Conservatory of Music. A well chosen group of selections was played, including Beethoven's Quartet opus 18, number 6, An Old Castle by Mivinsky, The Londonderry Air, and The First Noel, all of which were very well received. Attendance at this was voluntary, and an extremely large audience was present, despite the nearness of the Christ- mas examinations. We should like to thank the members of the Quartet for giving us such an enjoyable evening. l1 New Boy in J.S. On January 19, the arrival of a son, their third child, to Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Tottenham was the occasion of a School half-holiday. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECGRD CHRISTMAS DONATIONS The Collection at the Carol Service was distributed as follows:- S2500 was sent to the Rev. Eyre Dann, a former Chaplain, at the Church of St. John the Evangelist, Mont- real. Mr. Dann used the money to help the families of some of his choir boys. 325.00 was sent to the Social Workers of St. James' Cathedral, Toronto. KNO details yetl. 525.00 was sent to Bishop Broughall C88-'94J in Hamilton. He asked his social Workers to use it for the assistance of boys of school age. 5525.00 was sent to the Bishop of Moosonee. KNO details yetb. 315.00 was sent to Ottawa. It was used to provide a suit for a boy of school age Whose family is on relief. --l--.Q 4 TRUWITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 WQF, SCHOOL DEBATES -Q LIES AND THEIR JUSTIFICATION On November 25, the iirst debate of the year was held in the Hall on the resolution that lies are never justifiable. The affirmative was upheld for Brent by Alley, Macklem i, and Wright. Bethune was represented on the negative by Cross, Fulford and Taylor. The negative won in a fairly well contested debate, and Fulford was judged to be the best speaker of the evening. The judging was done by Snowdon, Williamson, and Mr. Bagley, with Snowdon returning the judges' decision. THE DEATH PENALTY On January 13, the House was called to order at 8.15 by the speaker, the Honourable D. W. Fulford, to con- sider the resolution that Capital punishment should be abolished. J. P. Williamson CTorontoJ opened for the Government by saying that execution thwarts thor- ough investigation into a murder case and the chance for reforming the murderer. R. L. Watts fNorth Torontoi spoke next, opposing the motion. His main argument was that a large number of murderers are incurables and that the death penalty should remain law to get these out of the society that they are endangering. D. A. Snowdon CRosedaleJ carried on with the argument to uphold the motion. He said that it is possible to reform criminals and went on to give proof of this statement. N. T. Bur- land fBermudaJ was the second speaker for the Opposi- QU TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tion. His main argument was that we have no right to consider it morally wrong to execute someone who has done murder himself. He pointed out that this was especially true after a war where large scale murderers were applauded. L. D. Rhea CMontreall rounded out the Government's argument, stating that it is the certainty of punishment rather than the severity of it that restrains possible criminals. M. F. McDowell fTimminsJ was the last speaker for the Opposition. He refuted several points made by Government speakers and advanced the argu- ment that it was psychologically impossible to cure all murderers especially considering the existing condition of our mental hospitals. J. P. Williamson made the rebuttal for the Government. This speech was interrupted twice on, Points of order but these went unnoticed. It was beyond all doubt the best speech of the evening. The judges then retired to consider their verdict. There were several speeches from the floor, and a division of the House was called. After a great deal of complicated mathematics, the result was announced to be a draw. Alley returned the decision of the judges in favour of the Govern- ment. RESOLVED THAT MEN'S CLOTHING IS IN NEED OF RADICAL CHANGE In a debate in the Hall on January 19 it was unani- mously agreed that men's clothing is in need of radical change. Alley presided. Herridge, the Iirst speaker for the government, stressed the fact that comfort and pro- tection were lacking in present day attire. Ross for the Opposition countered that men dictate their own needs and as no radical change in dress had occurred, there must be no need for one. McDonald, in a well delivered speech for the government, dwelt on the moral aspect of clothing and suggested reverting to old Grecian attire. Carson for the Opposition, in a humorous speech, pointed out the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 desirability of vanity in modern wear. The last speaker for the government, Chester, suggested a radical change in trousers, hats and shoes, and he was followed by Dead- man who pointed out the practicability of modern wear. While Mr. Maier, Watts, and Fulford retired to decide the result, there was a spirited discussion from the floor cen- tering arotmd the practicability of the kilt. The lead in this discussion was taken by Williamson, Pierce, and Mc- Dowell. The vote of the house which favoured the govern- ment 30-21 was followed by a few remarks from Fulford who announced that the judges had also decided in favour of the government. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. On Saturday, January 31, at Aurora, we held our first inter-school debate of the year. The debate was sponsored by the St. Andrew's College Literary Society. The motion debated was Resolved that School Cadet Corps should be abolished . Alley, Wright and Burland from T.C.S. supported the affirmative, while Lawrence. Murrell and Cockburn upheld the negative for S.A.C. The main contention of the opening speaker for the affirmative, Peter Alley, was that Cadet Corps do not give any real military training and hence are an unnecessary expense useful only for school publicity. St. Andrew's first speaker, Edwin Lawrence, tried to prove that Cadet Corps teach discipline and co-operation, improve grooming and posture, occupy a boy's spare time which might otherwise be mischievously used, and provide valuable training at school and at Cadet Camps in such fields as shooting and life saving. Michael Wright, the second affirmative speaker, claim- ed that the type of discipline given in Cadet Corps was valueless because self-discipline, rather than discipline by force, is the kind of discipline which is required in our modern society. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The second speaker for the negative, Peter Murrell, pointed out the need for adequately trained men in Canada in case of war and stated that Cadet Corps helped train such men. Trinity's third speaker, Noel Burland, stressed the fact that the leadership exercised in Cadet Corps was a leadership based on force, while leadership in democracies should rely on persuasion. He also remarked that Cadet Corps might easily create superiority and inferiority com- plexes. The final speaker for the negative, Don Cockburn. attempted to demonstrate that self-control, the ability to get on with others, and leadership, are all developed in School Cadet Corps. The debate ended with a fairly effective rebuttal by Alley. The judges by a two to one decision declared S.A.C. the winners. The best speakers of the evening were Lawrence of S.A.C. and Burland of T.C.S. Fulford, an observer for T.C.S., spoke wittily from the floor and quite captivated the audience. .i11 S9JnD!d PUB LLIOD 'U ,- - E H. C 3 'J' K4 '7- F3 O. fb 'U fb 3 Q. rr: '1 3 rn.

It is the purpose of the Political Science Club to at least attempt to make up for this neglect among its membersg the value of the Club lies not so much in the information which it imparts as in the interest which it arouses. The aim of the Club is clearly stated in its slightly pompous preamble which follows: It is the high resolve of this assembly . . . by study, analytical thinking. and corporate discussion, to arrive at the truth, by the realization of this truth, to eliminate baseless prejudices: by the intelligent and practical application of the foregoing principles, to cultivate and propagate the greater knowl- edge of the political, social and economic aspects of our Dominion and the world. While the club does not fully live up to this aim it at least tries to. The founder and moving spirit behind the club is the School's expert history teacher and head coach, Mr. Hod- gettsg however, he does not dominate the club and like other members he occasionally finds his proposals out- voted. The Club's membership is limited to twenty and it is governed by the usual executive and in addition annually elects an esteemed personage as honorary presi- dent. The Club in its five years of life has pursued various courses, the first year socialism, fascism, capitalism, com- munism and farm economics were looked intog the second year it picked the topic of public opinion and its formation and developed this topic during the year, the next year it selected a book, Problems of Canadian Unity , and dis- cussed the ideas contained in itg the fourth year a wide range of topics inspired by Saturday Night articles was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 skimmed overg the political parties of Canada and what they stand for was chosen as the theme for this year. The Club attempts to get outside speakers whenever possible and as a result has had many more or less in- teresting discourses on such varied subjects as Social Credit, corruption in pre-war France, Russian-Polish rela- tions, adult education in Ontario, the small town news- paper, the Tory Party, and the preparations of a political party before an election. When outside speakers have been unavailable a boy in the Club has been appointed to do research on a subject and give a talk to the Clubg in this way the Club has covered such matters as rehabilita- tion of Western Agriculture and the way to bring demo- cracy to boarding schools. The talks given to the Club are theoretically one hour in length and are always fol- lowed by a discussion period. The Club has often been too split to come to any decision at all on matters which have been brought up, but it has reached agreement on a few of them: it thought that the Canadian constitution should be changed so that the federal government would have more powerg at one point it concluded that the family creates a conservative outlook on life dangerous in any society, and it decided that the present secondary school system does not prepare people for citizenship, that each person should receive some instruction in the social sciences to make him an intelligent citizen, and that a teacher should pass on his opinions to the student, provided that they have been arrived at through honest study. More than once the idea has been brought forward of sometimes having joint meetings with clubs of a similar nature in other schools and in this way learning the opinions of other students and also securing better speakers, however, we have so far been unable to arrange this. The members of the Club have varied from typical Ontario Tories to extreme Socialists and yet a Club of this nature has undoubtedly been of value to all of them. -D. W.

This programme is brought to you directly from the halls of famed Brent House where you will hear per- sonal interviews between our announcer and those he meets in this celebrated institution. Hello to everyone in my radio audience. I am now standing at the lively intersection which divides Brent House from the neighbouring House of Bethune, a build- ing of much lower repute. To my right we have the office of the mayor and banker of this thriving community. who is a billiard-shark of no little fameg it is reported that he figures his strokes by analytic trigonometry and the func- tions of x. At this moment Mr. McDowell, the famed gymnast has just swung down the fire hose and alighted by my side. I'1l see if I can get him to say a few Words for you ..... TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 u N-E-W B-O-Y ! Thank you so much, Mr. McDowell. Now as I gaze up the corridor, I find, approaching me, those two stal- wart members from the Hamilton Agricultural Society. Mr. Richard Wood and Mr. William Drynan. What's the news, boys? 4TogetherJ, W-e-l-l .... figger so! Many thanks for that scintillating bit of discourse, gentlemen. And nowI see that several scantily-clad gentle- men are dashing past me. I'1l see if I can get an interview with them .... '?! I'm very sorry but they seem to have disappeared before I could stop them! However theii faces were slightly recognizable and I think they can be identified. They were members of the Revival of Roman Culture Society as can be readily seen by the toga-like towels draped precariously about them. The triumvirate consisted of Scumus Boulden, Digger Dignam and Kev Drummond. The crowd seems to have diminished so I'll make my way down the passage and see if I can lure any of the in- habitants out to the microphone .... OW! Excuse me. ladies and gentlemen, but I have just been struck violently by a sphere of some sort which is being forcefully thrown by three athletes, rushing for the gymnasium. One of them, Ron Watts, has just passed this inflated bladder to Rick Gaunt, who, in turn has flipped it to Stu Wismer. Oh! Oh! The three of them have tripped and fallen over something which has just emerged into the corridor! When they pick themselves up, I'1l be able to tell you what caused this little mishap. It appears to be-yes it is- little Belle Brodeur and his squash raquet! To my left, the name 'Williamson' on an office door reminds me of this renowned scholar, and so I'll try and get a few words from him to enlighten our listeners: n, the principal quantum number, denotes the orbit: l, the azimuthal quantum number represents the angular momentum of the electron in its motion about the nucleus: 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and s, the spin quantum number depends on the direction of the spin of the electron about its own axis. I certainly do, Mr. Williamson, and I'm sure our radio audience does too. Thank you so much. Well, it looks as if our time is just about up and we regret that we couldn't interview more people on our programme. Of course we couldn't reach Mac-Kennedy, up on the roof erecting a new aerial in an attempt to reach South Africa, and we certainly couldn't interrupt Doc Chester in the Cocoa Room composing melodious '? '? ? tunes with hot basses. So with the strains of Pete Alley bellowing Lights Out to the men in the upper flats I'll sign off until to- morrow when we will again present The Man in the Corridor. -This was a delayed broadcast. -C. J. Bermingham, VA, and D. D. McIntyre, VIA. BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES After reading the Royal Commission brief on educa- tion, an article in the Record on the a.chievements of some of our illustrious predecessors, and listening to an expert expound at great length on the advantages of boarding school life and its products, one begins to wonder what is in store for some of the members of Bethune House. Scanning the House list it is hard to pick out the probable candidates for greatness or even those who are destined for such a job as purser aboard the Cobourg ferry. What will happen to these titans and what will they do? If Chuck Taylor plays any more symphonies he may be able to join Petrillo's Boys funtil he does he'll drive the House madl 3 will Foom Fulford shave during a session of Parliament? Stu Bruce, Boss-man of the House, will probably end up a G.P. and hang out a shingleg Westy Carson will either be a prince or a pauper if he continues to invest in sound Alberta oil stocks g Hudson Goodbody TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 is capable of anythingg the flat kids Mike Hall about the farm, but who knows-he may develop a type of milk that can't be watered down, if we had a crystal ball to gaze into, we might see Buck Rogers working hard-not married, I guess, Dalt Cross and Inky-poo Morgan, our hard-working Business Managers might be the Fuller Brush Salesmen type but more probably they'll be big executives complete with toofers and spatsg J. Smith might grow a bit and classify for the Greatest Little Show on Earth , it isn't hard to picture a gossip column The Sunny Day by Larry Rhea, Stan Pepler and the Archbishop got along very well-but then that's a bit fantasticg a future Tommy Manville appears in Flash Manningg General Babe James might recount his part in the Battle of the Bulge , Pete Goering might turn his talent for showmanship into a Broadway hit despite the chaff he would take in the processg Bob Burns would be the Peruvian killer, Bob Timmins may still keep that all- year-round tang Jim McGregor will probably still be arguing with Mr. Deningg and Lily Gilmour might blossom and flourish. But regardless of what these individuals do in the future, right now they are all adding to the life of the House and, together with all those that space does not permit mentioning, are keeping up the the worthy traditions of this great part of the School. -D.

I Education is not the amassing of a motley array of useless miscellaneous facts, but the developing of the ability to think and to appreciate true values.. While the knowledge of chemistry, geometry or French, for instance, will do no harm, their merit as school subjects is that, if properly taught, they develop reason and broaden a pupil's horizon, geometry teaches a reasoned logic in approach- ing problemsg chemistry demonstrates the scientific method: French presents' the literature and ideas of a dif- ferent nation. It is obviously necessary to have exams, so that it may be found Whether a student is actually doing any work, but that should be their only use. In our school system exams are far too often made an end in them- selves, rather than just a means to acquiring a true educa- tion. English as taught in schools is often restricted within narrow limits. I believe that, instead of a small course of English fit for exams, exams fit for a general course of literature should be devised. The student should be rewarded for extensive outside reading, not for the ability to memorize the salient features of the course as pointed out to him by his teacher. French is another excellent example of a subject cut for exams. Masses of TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 grammar rules are stressed rather than the ability to speak the language. Another outstanding fault of our educational system is the setting of a curriculum which even the moronic in- dividual is capable of grasping. The toning down of the course in grade school results in taking eight years to learn what a normally intelligent boy could learn in five. The Department of Education, apparently believing every- body equal in all respects, usually refuses to offend voters by dividing classes according to the ability of the pupils. Our system of pursuing only facts, technical skills and exams, results in the brain of a boy being saturated with knowledge rather than stimulated by truth. I endorse the statement of the English professor who, after visiting the United States, remarked that in no country had he seen so much instruction and so little education. -D. W. Fulford, VI sch. THE COMING OF AUTUMN The mist has covered all the land with sleep And fields, mountains and endless horizons are hid. Where is the golden vista at noon-day, Captured, exalted and resolved into a summer afternoon? The wind that has made a clean sweep across the face of heaven ' And has come to touch us with its sultry wildness? Where is the purple madness at moon-set, Longing eyes gazing across the limitless wastes of space To the mystery light of another's darkness? Now only mist, the endless, at my fingertips, and I have entered it. Gone is the ephemeral bustle of the wheat stalks, Now only a long sigh as the sad Wind 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Drifts through their drooping stems, Flows past their pallid faces, Listlessly weeping. Fled is the tree-music. The harmony of a thousand rustling branches, Whispering eternal secrets among themselves, Like monks in a vast and secret cloister, Beneath the notice of the lordly. Now only harsh crooked lines That slowly raise their gnarled lingers to grate on a leaden sky. The forest is far away, Rising into rolling, windswept mountains in the distance- Huge waves in the cool, misty sea of all ages Reaching for the everlasting kiss of heaven beyond an ever-leaden horizon. Gone are the ripples from the shining sea of pleasure, Now only an odyssey of shade, A night alive with voices, Death clear as a trumpet-call! -C. M.

Nascopie, after thirty odd years of sailing the icy Eastern Arctic regions, has finally succumbed to the treacherous tidal currents, the cold bleak winds and the eternal pound- ing of the slow-shifting iceiields. It is now being ruth- lessly knocked about by the savage swells of the Arctic Ocean, the very sea through which it once proudly steamed. The small icebreaker left Montreal harbour for the last time on the morning of July 5, 1947. Her final depar- ture was resplendent and impressive. She carried her signal flags high and proudly. Although the other freighters at the same pier were twice her size she seemed to out-glory all of them. People on the end of the pier were still waving their farewell to some who would not see civilization again for two or perhaps even three years. The tiny crowd watched the gay little ship leave her tugs and steam down'the calm river. Many ships who recog- nized her, blasted a farewell with their fog horns and she proudly returned their salutations. She passed many ships that day, some big, some small, some old and some new, from all corners of the earth. Anchored near the shore were many old freighters who had seen their day at sea and were now being used as coal hulks. Rumour had it that this was to be the Nascopie's last voyage to the Arctic and this would probably have been her dismal future had not fate seen things differently. The first part of the trip was comparatively unevent- ful. The river pilot left her as she steamed into the Gulf of St. Lawrence, on past Anticosti, through the Straits of Belle Isle and finally into the Atlantic and up the coast of Labrador. North of Cartwright, the capital of Labrador. she encountered a light north Atlantic storm and a few large icebergs. A little further north she had to break her way through some field ice and a few seals and polar 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD bears were sighted. The 'nights became shorter and shorter until there was no real darkness and the climate became gradually colder until she reached Lake Harbour on the southern coast of Baffin Land. Her arrival at Lake Harbour was a ceremonious occasion. Navo1ia , the Eskimo pilot came out to meet the ship as she entered the narrow inlet. Although he guided the ship through to the outpost this was more of a formality now than a necessity. Some passengers stayed up until midnight to get their first glimpse of the real northland. Their excitement could be read on their cold faces as the ship wound its way between steep walls of barren rock covered with patches of dirty snow. Soon the diminutive, isolated dwellings of the settlement came in sight. Lake Harbour consists briefly of a Hudson's Bay Company trading post, a Church Mission and an R..C.M.P. outpost. It has a population of about ten whites and three hundred Eskimos. During the war the American Army set up a meteorological station there. The first day. when the unloading operations were delayed due to the low tide, the Eskimos came aboard in full strength. They were fed outside the galley by the Chief Steward, who was known among the crew as the laughing Greek . He seemed to get paramount pleasure from feeding hard-tack and stale tea to the Eskeemoze, who went for it like children after ice cream. When they came aboard they brought small ivory carvings which they traded among the crew for Tobahamic or some old piece of clothing. After the ship left Harbour she crossed the Straits to Sugluk which is a post much the same as Lake Harbour. In fact the northern posts all look very much alike being built in the most sheltered position possible. The next port of call was Wokstenholm about a hun- dred miles east of Sugluk. To get into the port the ship once again had to go through a narrow channel engulfed on both sides by massive rock cliffs which towered over TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31' and dwarfed the tiny ship. Near the post at Woksten- holm a small creek runs down a hillside from a snow patch on the steep embankment. Out of this creek Henry Hud- son is said to have taken his last supply of drinking water. Since then a trading post has been established there, and now, some three hundred years later, R.M.S. Nascopie weighed anchor for the last time in that same fiord and right opposite that creek. The gallant ship left Wokstenholm early in the morn- ing of July 21. The sun was piercing through a steel grey sky, but there was no indication of a storm. Soon after mid-day the coast of Baffin Land was again seen on the horizon. At three-thirty the Nascopie was steaming to- wards Cape Dorset. Ten seconds later she bumped twice over a sunken reef and then came to an abrupt halt with her bow raised above the water level. Immediately every effort was made to back her off before the tide went out but to no avail. The passengers were then evacuated to Cape Dorset, about seven miles away. As the tide went out her stern sank lower and lower in the water and the treacherous reef revealed itself slowly, raising her bow high in the air. As time went on the sky darkened, the rains came, and the swells began to bang upon the reef and the stranded vessel. When the midnight tide came in, however, the tension was momen- tarily relieved and she was refloated again. She was tak- ing in water badly but not too much for the bilge pumps to cope with. However, she began to list slightly. It was decided to anchor her and bring her into Dorset in the morning when the storm cleared. At three a.m. the order was given but she proved uncontrollable against the storm as her bow was water-logged. The savage currents and the cruel wind finally succeeded in driving her hard aground on another part of the wicked reef. She imme- diately began to take in water and the order was given to abandon ship as she listed heavily over to starboard. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The crew and some of the passengers slept at Dorset that week. A place whose population is normally only five whites, suddenly increasing to about seventy with no warning, creates a real problem, but the survivors slept in a warehouse under deerskin blankets and polar bear 5, l' .

Every morning the crew wondered if their ship was still above the water but she could be seen still Hrmly holding onto the reef, defenceless against the pounding waves which at high tide would smash over her bow. Every day a volunteer group went out to salvage what they could, but very little was salvageable. The post wireless was operating twenty-four hours a day and the government icebreaker HN. B. McLean was detailed to pick up the survivors. Owing to prevailing fog and ice conditions she took considerably longer than was at iirst expected. An Eskimo was posted at the top of a hill with a gun to signal when it was within sight, but the crew of the ill-fated ship were up there for seven long cold days. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 When the N, B. McLean finally arrived at Churchill, the crew read the newspapers for the first time in a month, and what they read was a tragic story. There was the headline HNASCOPIE AGROUND IN BAFFIN LAND , they saw pictures of their ship, and the next day they read HSURVIVORS SAFE IN CHURCHILL . They did not like to consider themselves survivors but were glad to get back to civilization after what could have been a tragic experience. -D. A.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 THE GREAT SCIENTIST RETURNS The great scientist was cold. He had been drifting through the atmosphere too long a time in his marvellous bubble, and decided that something should be done about his unusual situation. Ever since the December issue of the T.C.S. Record had been published, his balloon had been floating through space and the great chemist was feeling slightly famished. By making lavish use of his tremen- dous Will power he had convinced himself that the terrific cramp in his stomach was purely imaginary, but the dis- covery that he could count every one of his eighteen ribs was slightly disconcerting. But what could he do '? He dared not puncture his balloon, for if he did so he would fall through, who knows how many thousands of feet to his doom, and the world would be deprived of his amazing inventive genius. Then the thought came to him. The Fitz-Gerald con- traction of course. Even Einstein, for whom the scientist had developed the theory of unnecessary relatives, knew of the Fitz-Gerald contraction. The great scientist thrust his arms through the unresisting sides of his balloon, carefully enough so that he might not burst it, and began flapping his arms vigorously. Faster and faster his bubble moved, until it reached half the speed of light. Babbling learnedly with joy, the great scientist realized that his balloon and he himself were contracting, as indeed they should. Natur- ally, now being heavier than air, his strange conveyance began to descend as the great scientist had dimly suspected it would, but with much greater speed than he had bar- gained for. The bubble struck the earth with a resounding roar, and at the speed of light, but such was the resilency and toughness of his discovery that he was uninjured. Picking up himself and the remains of the bubble, he put them in his pocket for future use. tThe great scientist could put anything in his pocketl. 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Looking cleverly about, he found himself near an im- posing red brick building. The time was early morning according to his grandfather's clock, which he always kept concealed on his person in order that he might time his delicate experiments with infinite accuracy. The tower bell of this building was sounding a melancholy, though urgent dirge, or so it seemed to the great scientist. He entered the door below and to the right of the tower, and found himself in a beautifully appointed, marbled hall. Still the bell continued its sad ringing. Then. when the great scientist had almost decided upon a course of action, he heard a S54 horrible rumbling noise, and to his astonish- ment saw a wild, bleary-eyed horde of humanity, in various states of dress and undress rushing down upon him. No sooner had they come, than they were gone. The bell stopped sounding and all was silent as a tomb. ' The great scientist picked himself up off the marble iioor, and Went in the direction in which the frightful mob had gone, passed by and below the room where it was now ensconced, and was, he judged, busily engaged in demolish- ing the furnishings. He realized now that he must be in some boarding school or other and would have to proceed with extreme care. Drawn by the smell of chemicals he entered a smaller building, whose door clanged shut behind him as he went in, and made his way to the third floor where he gently broke down a door. A glorious array of wonderful chemicals greeted his gaze. He stood there wringing his hands with joy, and was about ready to inflict another of his wonderful discoveries upon the world when he heard someone coming. It was one of the masters of the institu- tion. So annoyed was the great scientist at this inter- ruption that he put a curse on this worthy so that for a whole term none of his physics experiments agreed with the department findings. kv-1, Q43 f TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD -13 In spite of the consternation he caused in the science department, however, the great scientist did accomplish some useful work in his study of man as an animal. He discovered that the inmates of the school could shower. shave, dress and reach the dining-hall in three minutes. The great scientist attemptedethis experiment himself and has never been the same since. The master at the hall door wouldn't let him in, and tried to make him remove the flour which was on his face from a previous escapade. The great scientist refused of course and the master drew out a black disc from his pocket. Fearing it might be radioactive, the great scientist jumped speedily back, blew himself a bubble, stepped in- side it and drifted off again into outer space, far from the strange beings he had met. It is doubtful if he will ever return . . . to this part of the world at least. -D. H. E. Cross, VI Sch. 11 HELL IS MURKY The dreadful night was closing in around me. Hope and prayer were now in the past, in the everlastingly un- changeable past, and there was left only the terrible wait- ing. Waiting that fosters insanity and breaks the living soul. The seconds sped, too fast, too fast, but the long hours passed on slowly. The agony and the torture were unbearable, but had to be borne. Perhaps they would be lessened if the mind and the body separated to travel different ways, I wondered. Could I return to the past and enact again the detestable moments that forced me into this headlong rush, this descent into absolute hope- lessness. Think backg surely the pain of the past is more endurable than the pain of the present. Think back .... The sight of that familiar, dirty and untended house for a moment deterred me, and I hesitated. A strange foreboding hung ominously over its naked walls. I stood awhile gazing at the window on the second floor, behind 441 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD which I knew she would be waiting. Always she sat there waiting for me, like a spider watching my progress as I wound myself tighter and tighter in her fateful web. I fclt she was watching me then, her evil mind devising evil plans. Suddenly a faint thrill passed through me with the realization that those plans would never materialize. This would be the last time she would sit there, waiting. No longer afraid, determinedly I entered the building, my hand clutching that cold, terrifying object. Rising in front of me, the stairs, narrow and uncarpeted. beckoned me on. Slowly I climbed. Up, ever upwards, it seemed: each step bringing me nearer to the moment when, at last superior, at last out of her loathsome spell, I should stand before her-omnipotent. For the last time I went over my minute precautions -I had to be ,above suspicion. But everything was set to perfection, nothing was left undone, nothing overlooked. Now only a door remained between us. I paused, my legs were weak beneath meg my hands were wet and trembling, my breathing had changed to a pantingg my heart, pound- ing, echoed each beat throughout the house, louder and louder-open the door! She did not move. She just sat there smiling at me. Smiling horribly. A sickness, a nausea enveloped me as I raised my hand. I could scarcely see, my dizziness was so great. My finger felt the first pressure. My fingers were shaking uncontrollably. Slowly I pulled, then waited, waited .... The present returned and the darkness with it. Imper- ceptably the bleak outline of the cell emerged into visibi- lity. The tall, slender bars, too erect, too straight sur- rounded me, like sentinels of Death. There was no move- ment to relieve the frightening silence. My imagination foresaw the end. I would be summoned by a guard, dressed in a distressing white. We would walk together down a long. bare corridor until we reached a door, massive and inevitable. We would pass through into the next room TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 and immediately I would see it before me. It would be the same as I had always thought it would be, and it would be there, coldly impassive, waiting for me-empty. Suddenly the room was filled with light. The door was being unlocked. Unable to force myself to look, I turned away. I was afraid to see the white. I turned and waited, waited for him to speak, knowing what he would say. Come on, old man, you can leave now. Sorry to have been so long, but you see they have just discovered that she poisoned herself. You shot a dead womanln -F. H. S. Cooper, VIA. THE NIGHTMARE On a blustery spring evening, far away in the northern wilds, a middle-aged business-man sat in fishing garb be- fore a cheerful fire. In the small log cabin he was await- ing the return of two of his companions who had been exploring new streams. As he sat there in a crudely-made easy chair, he gazed listlessly at the dancing flames, letting his wearied mind relax. But every time the Wind outside buffeted the cabin, a cool draught chilled him as it crept in under the door and through the unchinked logs. Getting up from his comfortable haven he went to his bed and pulled on a warm sweater. Before returning to his fire- side retreat he picked up a book, filmed with dust, that was resting on the window-sill. Seated once more, he investigated the book's title. which turned out to be The Scarlet Pimpernel . With an indifferent shrug he opened it and started to read. As the minutes passed by, he learned how the cunning 'Pim- pernel' saved the French nobility from inevitable death by amazing feats of trickery. But as the minutes lengthened into hours his eyelids became heavy. The htun of the Wind around the cabin and the slowly dying fire increased his drowsiness until he was fast asleep. 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Along a dark alley in the ded of night he and his French compatriots stealthily crept in the shadows of the walls approaching the main street. The high parapet over which they hoped to make their escape loomed ahead of them at the far side of the road. VVhen they reached the corner that led into the open and unprotecting street a thin rope could be detected hanging over the wall, blend- ing almost faultlessly with the sand-stone coloring. While they were on the lookout for a signal from their deliverer, The Scarlet Pimpernel, the incessant pounding in their ears caused by excited hearts failed to warn them of the half-dozen black forms that stalked them from behind. Suddenly a muffled cry from the surprised rear-guard precipitated a wild dash for safety among the remaining men. A few shots rang out and one or two fleeing men fell to the ground, but he himself rushed for the wall and started to climb the rope with monkey-like agility, strain- ing every nerve and libre to gain his freedom. Again a sharpshooter fired. neatly severing the rope a foot or so above his hand grip, causing him to fall helpless into the hands of the awaiting soldiers. Surrounded by French soldiers, the men were brought to the guillotine. where an excited crowd, aroused by the shots, awaited the execution. , He was to be the first executed. As he mounted the steps to the blood-stained platform he was horrified to notice the eager faces of the onlookers thirstily awaiting the sight of fresh blood. With a shudder, he knelt down and placed his head on the wooden block. Then with a hiss, almost a sigh, the blade fell. Waking up with a start, the fisherman knocked his book to the floor and then fully roused from his sleep he breathed a sigh of relief. He had fallen asleep with his head sunk down on his chest when a sharp draught had caused a wire sock stretcher, which had been hanging precariously on a nail, to fall down and strike him on the hack of the neck, thus causing his amazing dream.

The First Team is again competing in the O.H.A. Junior B Prep School League and under coaching of Mr. Humble have started the season very well. Stu Bruce has been elected captain and Don Fullerton vice-captain. This year we again have a Juvenile C and Midget teams in a local O.M.H.A.

We also have a Middleside team, coached by Mr. Key, and a Littleside team, guided by coach Mr. Dale, playing exhibition games with other schools. .i T.C.S. vs. S.A.C. At Port Hope, January 17, 1948. VVon. 9-6 At the outset of the hockey season, T.C.S. defeated their rivals from Aurora by a score of 9-6. George Camp- bell, the School electrician who has attended School games for twenty years, thought it was a good game: but the captain seemed to intimate that it was rather ragged. After a few Warm-up shots on the choppy ice and an attempt to fasten the sliding nets, the game got underway. 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Within a few minutes of play, McPherson, unassisted. scored the first T.C.S. goal at a close range. Urged on by this goal, T.C.S. put on the pressure and kept S.A.C. be- hind their own blue line for some considerable time. Again McPherson came out onto the ice, and hardly had he ceased blushing from his first triumph, when by magni- ficant stick-handling, he outwitted the goalie and neatly scored another with the assistance of Moffitt. This goal was at 12:39. About thirty seconds later, Fullerton cut through the defense and stick-handling all the way to the goal, passed to Austin who whipped the puck in. At this point, T.C.S. felt quite well on their way, but it was less than half a minute to the next goal which was scored by Dales of S.A.C., assisted by Horn. Then at 15:33, King scored from Nold, bringing the score up to 3-2 for T.C.S. For about five minutes, the play was fairly even with neither team making any break-aways. Nold and Erring- ton then teamed up and tied the score at 19:04. But Nold wasn't going to be outdone by McPherson. With only twenty seconds to go, Nold scored again, assisted by Errington and King. After a mass of new-boys had vaguely cleared the ice, the second period began. Inspired by their captain, S.A.C. went at it again. This time, King scored, assisted by Nold inside of fifty-three seconds. McPherson had seen enough of this S.A.C. scoring, so with the assistance of Moffitt, he scored again. Once more the S.A.C. team rallied and Horn scored, aided by Powter at 8:50. Following up their goal, the Saints threatened to score another, but Goodbody turned aside their repeated attempts, saving many almost certain tallies. Fullerton then got hold of the puck and in his own inimitable style, glided down to the S.A.C. goal and carefully put the puck behind the goalie. Then to reverse the procedure Moffitt scored from McPherson. This tied the score at the end of the second period. The third period got off to a slow start but Austin soon scored from Little. Now that the tie was broken, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 the game began to move a little faster. Fullerton went straight through from the face-off and passed to Little who scored a lovely shot in the upper left-hand corner of the goal. Hard body-checking followed and Fullerton came through with the last goal after a brilliant show of hockey. Nold was S.A.C.'s best while Fullerton and McPherson stood out for the School as its best scorers. S.A.C.-s+Shirley, Wansborough, McG1'egor,Nold, Errington, King.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C. At Aurora, January 21, 1948. Won 6-3 Sporting their new white hockey sweaters, T.C.S. played their return game with S.A.C. at Aurora, winning again by a margin of three goals. The whole game was very lively, partially due to the fast ice and partly due to the consistant fight of the players. Getting off to a fast start, the T.C.S. forwards pressed the S.A.C. goalie, and after Shirley had made an admirable save, Wood, coming all the way from our own goal, scored unassisted at 3:15. Again T.C.S. pressed forward and this time Little scored from Fullerton. Already within about six minutes of play, S.A.C. was behind by two goals. but nevertheless, they came back by hammering countless shots at our goalie. Finally Nold scored for S.A.C. Mc- Pherson then tallied for T.C.S. with the help of Moffitt and from then to the end of the period, the play remained quite even. S.A.C. mainly dominated the play in the next period by driving hard all the way. Goodbody was excellent in the goal but inally Wansborough, helped by Powter, scored for S.A.C. The puck was in our territory for a large part of the period but they failed to score. 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD At the beginning of the third period, S.A.C. kept up their scoring when Horn, assisted by Powter and Dales, tied the game. As in their first game, T.C.S. came to life on the tying goal and completely controlled the play from then on. We were then put ahead by Austin with the help of Hall and Fullerton. This goal seemed to put a lot more fight into the rivals and both teams strove to get another goal. T.C.S. came out victorous on a goal by Kingman, assisted by McPherson. In the dying moments of the game, Wood scored his second goal putting us ahead by three points. Nold stood out for S.A.C. while Fullerton was best for the School.

T.C.S. vs. ALPHA DELTS At Port Hope January 24, 1948. YVon 9-7 ' Bigside stretched their winning streak to three games by downing a strong Alpha Delt team by the score of 9-7. Perfect ice conditions made the game fast and Wide open as is indicated by the high score. In the first period, the A.D.'s gained a 2-1 lead. Ful- lerton opened the scoring in the early moments of the period when he pushed a rebound past Stratford who played the first ive minutes of the game in the A.D. nets as their goal-keeper was late in arriving. Sinclair then tied the score when he knocked the puck into the goal from a scramble in front of the T.C.S. goal-mouth. The A.D.'s then went ahead when Goodbody was beaten on a low shot from close in. The School showed renewed vigour in the second period when they outscored their opponents 5-1. Fullerton led the attack with three speedy goals which left the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 visitors gasping for breath. Moffitt and Thompson each added one for the School while Howard got the lone Alpha Delt tally. The A.D.'s seemed to get their second wind at the commencement of the final period when Howard, Mc- Murrich and McPhee scored in rapid succession before the Trinity attack got organized. However, Thompson and Bruce put T.C.S. in the lead again and Fullerton got his fifth goal to close the scoring for the School. Daniels accounted for the last Alpha Delt goal on a nice solo rush to make the final score 9-7 for T.C.S. Fullerton was the outstanding player for the School. which played the best game of the season to date. Daniels' speedy rushing and the goal-keeping of West stood out for the A.D.'s.

Won 5-2 The First Hockey Team notched their fourth straight victory in a hard-hitting contest with Pickering, by the score of 5-2. It was a rugged tilt although only two penalties were given out, both of these to Pickering. The Blue and Whites iced a fast-skating, crafty puck-hand- ling crew but they did not seem to have had the same amount of practice as the Trinity team. They spoiled many scoring chances with their offsides and their passing seemed to go awry constantly. The shots on goal seem to indicate fairly well the edge in play. T.C.S. took thirty- five shots on Paul in the Pickering nets While Goodbody had to handle twenty-seven. In the first period, play was fast, even and clean. There was no scoring until late in the period when Moffitt 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD broke away to score unassisted for T.C.S. Pickering struck back three minutes later when Farrell scored from Hutche- son and Wilson. This ended the scoring in an otherwise uneventful first period. The second period had hardly begun before the game became much rougher and consequently slower. Rogers, the burly Pickering defenceman, was sent off for tripping, but the Trinity team failed to capitalize on their one man advantage. Shortly after, however, Moffitt put the School ahead again, finishing off a nice combination play with Kingman and McPherson deep in the Pickering zone. Pic- kering came right back, and a few moments later, a wild scramble in front of our net, with a Pickering player sprawled on top of Goodbody, the T.C.S. goalie, almost resulted in a goal for Pickering. Then Thompson scored from Austin and Fullerton to give T.C.S. a 3-1 lead. Seconds later, Moffitt broke into the clear, but could not get his shot away. With T.C.S. still pressing. the puck came back to Hall at the blue-line and he passed it right in front of the goal to Thompson who slapped it in for his second goal. The period then ended with the score 4-1 in our favour. From the outset of the third period, Pickering began to put on the pressure. Hutcheson of Pickering broke away fast only to be stopped by Goodbody in goal. Elliot then picked up a loose puck at centre-ice, skated around the remaining defenseman, and beat Goodbody on a shot from directly in front of the net. Shortly following the face-off, a T.C.S. combination of Austin and Fullerton caught Pickering napping with one man back, but they could not beat Paul in the Pickering goal. Pickering again began to press, but the tension was relieved when O'Nei.l1 was penalized for charging. With two minutes left, Pickering desperately pulled Paul out of their nets. With six opponents inside the T.C.S. blue-line, Moffitt checked an opponent, carried the puck up the boards to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 the centre red-line and shot it into the corner of the open net. A minute later, the game ended. Outstanding for T.C.S. was Moffitt who scored three goals and led frequent thrusts into Pickering territory. Goodbody in goal was also good. Rogers, a stone wall on the Pickering defence, was always a major threat, while Elliot played a fast and tricky game at centre, scoring one of Pickering's two goals.

Lost 9-1 In their fifth game of the season, U.C.C. defeated T.C.S. by the score of 9-1 to hand the School its first defeat. The high scoring definitely indicated that U.C.C. was far superior throughout the whole game. The first period started off with U.C.C. keeping the puck down at our end for a considerable amount of time, but after a few minutes of this, the game began to open up and body-checks were given in abundance. Finally on one of their rushes, U.C.C. scored at 6:30, Kent taking the honours, assisted by O'Sullivan and Bazos. The hard check- ing and boarding kept up for a good part of the period. and at one time, the two teams had only three players each on the ice. Before the period had ended, O'Sullivan scored the second goal for U.C.C. at 17:18, assisted by Kent and Ball. U.C.C. again dominated the play in the second period by scoring two more goals, although, for a short while, the play was very even. Then O'Sul1ivan came through again assisted by Ball at 8:15. Two minutes later, Addison of U.C.C. scored from Kent bringing the score up to 4-0. From 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD this point on until the end of the period, play was very slow with neither team completing any plays or attempting any goals. At the beginning of the third period, Austin and Ful- lerton were together on a break-away but the U.C.C. goalie made a very good save. At 4:22, O'Sullivan scored his third goal assisted by Kent. This started off a string of fast goals, one of which was T.C.S.'s only score. Vlfhite scored from Bachley at 6:10 for U.C.C. Then Fullerton scored from Austin at 7:55 after a scramble in front of the n et. U.C.C. got the next three goals inside of five minutes: the first one by Ball from O'Sullivan, the second by Bazos from Clark and the third by Kent from Hewitt. For the remaining seven minutes of the game, there was no action and no particularly hard play. O'Sullivan, Kent and Bazos stood out for the winners while there was no outstanding player for T.C.S.

JUVENILE HOCKEY T.C.S. vs. ORONO At Orono, January 15, 1948. Lost 6-4 At Orono, the Juveniles lost their first game in a clean, hard-checking contest. A more experienced Orono team ran up three quick goals on tallies from Hammond, Richardson and Mercer. The School settled down, getting back into the fight with a goal by Boulden. Maier made it 3-2 early in the second period. The School loosened up to allow Stephenson to drive home a counter. Defense was thrown into the winds during the third period with both teams opening up and Hammond and Mercer scored for Orono. Maier, however, retaliated with two more goals TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 to make the score 6-4. Maier's hat trick was the out- standing feature of the game. Richardson and Hammond led Orono to a well deserved win. T.C.S.---Wilson, McGill. Deverall, Harvie tCapt.I. Rogers ii. Boulden, Bronfman. Chitty, Maier, Scowen Brodeur i, Vallance. Bermingham.

In the first period, T.C.S. played well and gained a four goal lead. Bronfman opened the scoring and Boulden added another goal a minute later. Rogers and Morgan i were the other marksmen for the School in this period. Newcastle retaliated in the second frame, coming within one point of tying the game. Creamer got two quick goals and Richardson got the other one. In the final session, both teams seemed to tire and play slowed down considerably. Richardson got his second goal of the night and Found his first to make the final score 5-4 in favor of Newcastle. 1 Creamer and Richardson played well for the victors while Harvie and Deverall were the best for T.C.S. T.C.S. vs. BOVVMANVILLE At Bowmanville, January 21, 1948. Lost 5-1 The Juveniles lost their first exhibition game to a faster and better polished Bowmanville team by a 5-1 count. We were very ragged around their goal and Bow- manville tallied once in the first period and once in the second. The School settled down in the third period but seemed unable to score. Harvie then shot a high one which would have missed but Bowmanville's goalie bothered to stop it, and in doing so, it fell from his glove into the goal. l 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Bowmanville then retaliated with three quick goals which ended the scoring. For Bowmanville, there were no individual stars as they all played good hockey.

Lost 9-0 Port Hope swept to a 9-0 victory over a disorganized School team before a jammed arena. The game was notable for its rough, hard play, and numerous penalties were awarded to both sides. The first period saw no scoring although play was fast and hard. Wilson in the School nets made some very fine stops. The game was scoreless until early in the second period when Jeffries scored. Guy scored for the town shortly afterwards and then Jeffries got another. A fight then broke out which involved all of the players, but was curbed by the referee before getting out of hand. The chief offenders were given major pen- alties, and while Trinity was short-handed, the town scored again to end the period. Port Hope then took complete control and paraded five goals past the School in the final TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD period. The School made a strong attempt to score near the end of the game but were unable to do so. Jeffries and Guy played best for Port Hope while Brodeur and McGill played well for the School. SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, January 31. Lost 6-3 In an exhibition game in Toronto, the T.C.S. Juveniles were defeated 6-3 by Upper Canada. The game was very evenly matched and well played throughout. Upper Canada proved to be slightly stronger than T.C.S. in the first period and they gained a 3-2 lead. T. Wardrop opened the scoring for U.C.C. and then a couple of minutes later. J. Wardrop scored giving U.C.C. a two goal lead. However, T.C.S. fought back and were rewarded when Harvie scored two quick goals to tie the score. Then just as the period was ending, Linklater scored for U.C.C. giving them a one goal edge at the end of the first period. The second period proved to be extremely even and as a result, only one goal was scored, that by Metcalfe of U.C.C. Both teams played good fast hockey and the period ended with the score standing at 4-2 in favour of Upper Canada. U.C.C. opened the third period with a rush and before T.C.S. could get organized, they scored two fast goals. The first was by T. Wardrop and the second by Kennedy. The play then speeded up considerably and became very even. Near the end of the game, Harvie scored his third goal for T.C.S. and the period ended without any further scoring, leaving U.C.C. the winners by the score of 6-3. T. Wardrop and Kennedy were best for Upper Canada while Harvie was outstanding for the School. -1-i- 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDDLESIDE SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At Port Hope, January 28.

In the second period, Osler and Lick each got their second goal and Southam and Mac- Gregor finished the scoring in the third period. With about five minutes left to play, the remainder of the game was cancelled due to a power failure which plunged the rink into darkness. Chart and Bruce were best for Bow- manville.

They made the score 5-2 in the second session when McMurtry, McTaggart and Baxter scored for U.C.C. while Symons and Butterfield tallied for the School. Trinity fought hard in the third period and nearly evened the count when Gilmour, Butterfield and Symons scored for the School while Lewis added his third for U.C.C. Thus the game ended in a 6-5 victory for Upper Canada. Symons played the best game for T.C.S. while Lewis was the spark of the U.C.C. attack.

Prep School League for the first time, com- peting against S.A.C., U.C.C., U.T.S. and Pickering. The Senior league race is very close and though Bigside has played in-and-out ball so far, the team shows promise of championship quality and under the coaching of Mr. Hod- getts should do well. Gaunt and Rogers are captain and vice-captain again. Mr. Hodgetts is also coaching the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 Junior team, which already has shown ai great improve- ment over previous years. T.C.S. vs. P.C.V.I. KSeniors5 At Port Hope, January 14, 1948. Lost 39-21 Faltering badly in the second half, Bigside basketball lost to Peterborough 39-21 in their first game of the year. The Peterborough cagers showing better ball-handling and shooting, fully deserved their win. Peterborough opened the scoring with two baskets. then Wismer scored three and Rogers one making the score 8-4 for Trinity at the quarter. The play throughout this quarter was fast and even. In the second quarter, P.C.V.I. ran up ten points before Trinity replied with baskets by Bascom, Gaunt' and Sweny. The half ended 16-14 for Peterborough. Peterborough scored seven points without a reply at the start of the third quarter and were never in danger from that point on. The quarter ended with the score 25-18 in favour of Peterborough. Trinity seemed to collapse in the final period as they allowed Peterborough to run up twelve points before Wismer finally netted a basket for T.C.S. The game ended a few minutes later with Peter- borough on top by the score of 39-21. Griffin with ten points was high scorer for Peterborough while Wismer collected eight for Trinity. Lee and Richardson played well for Peterborough while Gaunt was Trinity's best. T.C.S.-Gaunt Ccapt.J 3, Rogers 4, Bascom 4, Emery, Snowdon, Sweny 2, Spencer, Vernon, Watts, Williams, Wismer 8.

At Port Hope, January 17, 1948. Lost 24-22 In their second game of the season, Bigside basketball were edged 24-22 in a low scoring duel with S.A.C. The game was featured by some very close checking on both sides and by the extremely poor shooting of the T.C.S. players. The Trinity squad missed any number of shots, outshooting their rivals by a large margin. In the first half, play was fairly even with Trinity having a slight edge. The score at the end of the half stood at 14-10 in our favor. In the third quarter, S.A.C. dominated the play and went into the lead 17-15. With Trinity pressing hard, they then managed to cling to this slim edge and went on to win the game. One reason for the Saints Win was their right-for- ward, Paterson, who collected ten of his team's fourteen points in the second half. Edmonds of Saint Andrew's was also outstanding because of his all round good play. The close checking of Gaunt and Sweny stood out for Trinity. With a little more shooting accuracy, the team could have Won this game, and it seems reasonable that, with a little more practise in this department, Bigside should turn into a very formidable squad this year.

Won 34-25 The First Basketball team scored their initial success, with a 34-25 win over S.A.C. at Aurora. The game opened very slowly with S.A.C. scoring. However, Trinity, led by Rogers, surged ahead and were leading 17-14 at the end of the first half. Edmonds led the Saints' attack by scoring eight points, while Simpson's TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 accurate long-shots accounted for another six points. Alto- gether, the play speeded up during the second quarter, but the poor shooting and ball handling of both teams kept the score down. The second half showed much better play, with many good checks and fast breaks. Wismer scored all of his eight points in this half and Williams added another six to pave the way for T.C.S. to Win. The School outscored the Saints 13-8 in the fourth quarter and sewed the game up to Win by a nine point margin. Thus the game ended 34-25 in favour of T.C.S. Edmonds' and Simpson's play were best for S.A.C. The hard-checking and aggressive play of Sweny and Gaunt were best for the School.

Won 39-31 In a fast and rugged but rather loose game, the lirst basketball team scored their second victory of the season with a 39-31 Win over the Alpha Delts. The game started very fast with Rogers scoring tirst for the School, but the A.D.'s surged back, led by Turner. and were leading 10-8 at the end of the quarter. Good checking and loose ball-handling by both teams kept the score down. The second quarter opened without a score for some five minutes. The A.D.'s then took the upper hand. outscoring the School by 9-6, and led 19-14 as the half ended. The second half opened at a blistering pace, as the School, led by Rogers' brilliant play, pulled up to a 26-26 tie at the three-quarter mark. Again led by Rogers, the School started out the final qua.rter at a fast clip and 68 TRINITY COLLEGE sC1-IOOL RECORD pulled away from the A.D.'s. However, the outcome was in doubt until the final whistle as the visitors kept attack- ing with Turner scoring six points. Only some fine defen- sive work by Gaunt assured the School of victory. The excellent play of Turner, who scored sixteen points, and the steady effort of Evans were best for the A.D.'s. Rogers, with twenty-three points, and the good defensive play of Gaunt stood out for the School.

Lost 39-34 Bigside was overcome by a strong Pickering Col- lege quintet in a very close game. The School was very ineffective in the iirst half, but made a fine comeback in the second, only to fall short of victory. Play was slow to start with and Trinity managed to attain a 5-3 lead at the quarter. Pickering then showed some skilful play in intercepting passes and used a fast ff Hill? -s A E, --1 , i ,.4...- -.......-.- ---::..'.'.- '.--- ,.....-- ' 'inzixiri' COl.l.i-lfllll sos-iooL RECORD GQ break effectively to run to a 18-5 lead at half time. In this half the Trinity attack against the tight Pickering zone defence was very lackadaisical. Trinity fought back, led by Wismer and Gaunt. Both teams played well in this second half, and the game was very even and exciting. They fought to 26-16 at three- quarter time. With minutes to go, Trinity got to within one point of Pickering, 33-32, mainly on shots by Wismer and Gaunt. Pickering then went further ahead to end the game 39-34. Lee, Coper, Cohen and Arnold played well for the vic- tors. Gaunt's play and Wismer's last-half shooting were outstanding for the School.

Won 33-15 Bigside Basketball tightened the League race with an easy 33-15 victory over U.C.C., previously undefeated. The game opened evenly with the play constantly shifting from one side to the other. Thompson led U.C.C. with all of their six points, while Rogers' four points helped the School to a 9-6 advantage at the end of the first quarter. The next period saw the School completely out- play their opponents, allowing but one point to be score-:l by U.C.C. Although the score was only 16-7 at the half. the Trinity basketeers outshot the Blue and Whites by at least 7 to 1. In the third period U.C.C. put in a determined bid, but were held back by the fine defensive work of Gaunt and Sweny, The third period ended with the score 21-13 in our favour. Led by Rogers' six points the School rolled the score up. while holding U.C.C. to two points. Though TQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the game wasn't very fast, it proved to be very rugged and hard-fought. Thompson was the outstanding player for U.C.C. with his nine points. The stellar defensive play of Gaunt and Sweny and Rogers' fourteen points paved the way to a well-earned victory for the School.

Lost 25-9 In its opening game with Peterborough, the Juniors took a 25-9 beating. The game was quite slow through- out, with both teams warming up in the last half. Peterborough scored a basket early in the iirst minute of play. They added two more for a 6-0 lead at the quar- ter. The School looked very unorganized and scrambly on the whole. Peterborough slowed down in the second quarter, neither team breaking through the other's de- fense successfully, and Batchelor led Peterborough to a 10-1 lead at half-time. Both teams opened up more in the last half, and Peterborough sank four baskets while the School sank two to leave the score 18-5 at three-quarter time. The School's offense looked much better but could not score effectively. The game ended 25-9 for Peterborough. Inexperience accounted for many of the Juniors' mistakes and a great improvement is looked for in future games. Hoffman was best for the School, while Batchelor and Grant played well for P.C.V.I.

JUNIORS At Port Hope, January 17, 19-18. Lost 21-19 In a photo-finish game, the Juniors were beaten by S.A.C. 21-19 in their first league game. The game started with little action but was climaxed by a second half scoring race in which the Saints managed to hold their lead. In the 'first half, neither team could score effectively but the Saints managed to take a 5-3 lead. This was lengthened into 11-7 at half time. Trinity showed good spirit and drive in the latter half and narrowed the gap but S.A.C. kept a 16-13 lead at the three quarter mark. It was touch and go all the way until the final whistle. and although the School outscored their visitors, they could not quite overcome their early lead. The game ended 21-19 for the Saints. T.C.S. vs. S.A.C. JUNIORS At Aurora., January 21, 1948. Lost 28-15 On their own floor, the Saints had no trouble in beating the School for the second time after the very close match in Port Hope. Trinity was plagued again by first- half inorganization which lost the game for us. The Saints opened powerfully. and, led by Crosbie and Sutton with ten and six points respectively, ran up a 22-4 lead at the half. T.C.S. fought back in the latter half but Saint A.ndrew's coasted to a 28-15 win. A Crosbie and Sutton played well for S.A.C. while the School's best was Greenwood. SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Newmarket, January 27. Won 22-16 In a rather low-scoring game, T.C.S. Juniors won their first game in over three years by beating Pickering Juniors 22-16. The game was faster than the score might indicate for both teams missed many easy shots. The game started T2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD off slowly, neither team scoring much in the first half which ended 10-7 for T.C.S. The second half was much faster, however, with more team-work being shown by both sides. The game was more openas each team had many breakaways. However, T.C.S. definitely outplayed a much smaller Pickering team and well deserved their win. Pierce and Greenwood played well for the School. Buck and Cannon were the best of the Pickering squad. SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Fort Hope, January 30. Lost 31-28 U.C.C. edged T.C.S. Juniors, overcoming a three point T.C.S. lead in the last minutes of the game to defeat the Juniors 31-28. The first half was very even, but the School's attack, led by Hoffman, had a slight edge. The second half featured a very fast, sometimes scrambled attack by both teams. The School led by one point going into the fourth quarter and stretched it to three points with one minute to play. The U.C.C. team, however, was not to be denied and scored three baskets in the dying minutes of the game. The final score was U.C.C. 31. T.C.S. 28. Zvian and Wallace were best for U.C.C. with each getting ten points. Hoffman, Pierce and Greenwood were best for T.C.S.

This tournament was begun in 1935 but was discontinued during the war years. This year was the tirst time since 1940 that it has been held and it is hoped that it will again become an annual school event. The purpose of the tournament is to give the School a chance to see some really good squash as played by some of the best players in Canada. Among the well-known players competing this year were W . S. Noyes from Toronto. Canadian championg H. A. R. Martin from Mont- real, former Quebec champion and a semi-finalist in the 1946 and 1947 Canadian championships: F. M. Gibson from Hamilton. a quarter-finalist in the 1947 Canadian cham- pionshipsg W. J. Mickle from Toronto: S. C. Hetherington from Toronto, and B. M. Wood from Toronto. Also here were S. Traviss, E.

SQUASH SCHOOL vs. ALPHA DELTA PHI On Saturday, January 24, the Alpha Delts invaded the School with hockey, basketball and squash teams. Although they lost the hockey and basketball games, they managed to salvage the squash tournament, winning by six matches to four. Each match was slated to be the best of five games. but as the afternoon wore on, it became evident that there would not be time to finish the tournament using this system. Consequently, the matches were changed to the best of three games. Since Ernie Howard and Stick McMurrich were also on the Alpha Delt hockey team, they were unable to be present at the beginning of the tourna- ment and hence the games were not played in order. Scores were as follows: Brodeur i beat Harrison 3-0 fT.C.S.J Carson beat Farncomb 3-0 lT.C.S.7 Brodeur ii lost to Conyers I3-03 fA.D.J Macklem i lost to Scott 3-2 CA.D.l Luxton beat Farncomb 3-0 fT.C.S.J Tessier lost to Harrison 3-2 fA.D.3 Brodeur i lost to Howard 3-1 fA.D.J Macklem i beat Conyers 2-1 fT.C.S.l Carson lost to McMurrich 2-1 fA.D.J Tessier lost to Howard 2-0 CA.D.J Luxton vs. McMurrich cancelled due to lack of time.

After last year's Little Big Four Swimming meet Mr. Hodgetts went out on a limb to predict that we might win it this year. Swimming has now almost won its place as a full first team sport. This means that the Swim- ming Team has regular practices and regular coaching, and also that it is capable of holding its own against school and college teams. In their Hrst swimming meet of the season, the T.C.S. Senior swimming team defeated Queen's University and Peterborough Y.M.C.A., and the Peterborough Juniors beat our Junior team. The Senior races were very closely contested for the most part. Perhaps the most exciting of all the races was the forty yards Breast Stroke when Maclaren edged out Leek of Queen's by inches. Hughes, the Trinity cap- tain, was our biggest point gainer, winning the 100 and the 50 yards Free Style and helping to win the 160 yard Relay. The final scores were Trinity 52, Queen's 35 and Peterborough Y.M.C.A. 27. In the Junior events, Buck led the Peterborough team to a 32-20 victory over T.C.S. Senior Events Medley Relay:- 1.

This has entailed a great deal of work, often under very trying conditions, for all members of the grounds staff. Our sincere thanks to them for their good work and our con- gratulations on the new rink at the Junior School. Mrs. E. P. Taylor has been kind enough to send us some books for the Library. We are most grateful to her for her kind thought. The Library is in constant use and we are always delighted to receive extra books for our shelves. The Christmas plays went off very well again this year. Our thanks to Mrs. Spencer for her good work in producing the Prep play, and also to all members of the Staff who put so much Work and time into making the evening a success. A half-holiday was enjoyed early in the term in honour of Timothy Tottenham, the youngest and newest member of the J .S. THE JUNIOR SCHOOL THEATRICAL WARDROBE For the past three or four years the Junior School has put on a show at Christmas which seems to have been well received. One of the features of this show has undoubtedly been the girls chorus . At the present time, our supply of long dresses for the girls has become sadly depleted. almost to the point of extinction. We are therefore taking the liberty of making an urgent plea to all friends of the Junior School for any dresses either long or short which have outlived their normal span of usefulness. We should of course also be most grateful for any other costumes or bits of costumes TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 85 which might serve for Hallowe'en or other such occasions. Each year some seventy-five boys dress up for Hallowe-'en and this also creates a problem. Anything which you might be able to send would be much appreciated and would be put to good and frequent use. JUNIOR SCHOOL CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT The Junior School entertainment went off well again this year-in spite of our fears at the Dress Rehearsal! ! The boys of the Prep Forms started the evening with a delightful little play called The Shoemaker and the Elves . All members of the cast did well and are to be congratulated on the way they spoke up , and could be heard at the back of the Gym. Two scenes from Dicken's A Christmas Carol fol- lowed-put on by members of Forms III and IIA. Parts of these scenes were quite difficult to stage and it is greatly to the cast's credit that everything went off so well. Levey carried his difficult role as Scrooge very strongly and we will not soon forget the sepulchral tones of Wright as Marley's Ghost. The School Choiradded a great deal to the general effect by their excellent rendition of carols off-stage. The Junior School Varieties with a bevy of beautiful girls and a number of well-knovvn popular songs brought the evening to a close. The two solos by Woods and D. Nevin, together with Reford as The Beautiful Doll were the highlights of this part of the programme. PROGRAMME 1.

Once I was part of a big rock, but then the glaciers came and ground my rock against another rock. I fell off on a lot of other grains of sand beside a big hollow in the earth. That hollow filled with water and I was left on the shore with billions of others like me. Countless people have walked over me to the water for a swim in the ocean. Ancient Britons, Caesar's troops, William the Conqueror, have all trodden on me. What stories I could tell if only these stupid humans could understand me! Then one day a big truck came with some men who scooped a lot of us up, put us in a truck, and carried us away. We stopped in front of a ruined church that had been bombed by the Germans in the last World War. I was dumped into a cement-mixer and poured into the founda- tions of the church which was being built. I shall never be the cause of letting this church collapse. I shall hold the cement together and this church will last until many generations have passed away. -J. Bonnycastle, Form IIB. THE RIVER Over the rocks and through the hills, The beautiful river glides, I By the white birch and the maple tree Just like a snake, it slides. The Beaver at work along its banks, Never from his work lifts a paw, The rabbit and mouse from the lynx they run 'Cause he has death in every claw. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The river it flows on and on, It eventually reaches the sea. Why don't you ever come and look, At this beautiful scene with me. -R. G. Church, Form IA. HELP US One small star in a deep endless blue Where suns of fierce fire do shine. Till all but the few who are humble and true Are deceived by that which seems fine. But this one star with a pale pure glow Is strong in this wicked hour. Dear God, here below, O help us to know. To fear, and to love Thy power. False fiery suns with a false fiery face, Which to be on some think they desire, Thou'rt torture! Hell's blaze! That on which we gaze. Is but Satan's evil fire. So help us, O Lord, who all goodness rearest, To turn from the wrong to thee. Though farthest thou'rt nearest, though unnoticed, dearest, To the tempted, to the sinner, to me. -R. J. Anderson, Form IIAI. 1 BEFORE THE BATTLE He was scared. There was no doubt about it, he was scared. Through eyes clouded with a heavy mist, he could vaguely see the enemy, large and powerful, looming up in the distance. So far many others had tried to stop the advancing onslaught but few had succeeded. Yes, he had a right to be scared. 90 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD He thought of his early dreams of a small New England chicken farm. He had wanted two or three chil- dren with a pony and a dog to keep them company. It would have been a wonderful life there in the green valleys where the fresh sea breezes blew. When he grew old, he would have given the business to his son and settled down to a peaceful life of retirement. Then his dreams were abruptly interrupted by a rasp- ing voice giving him last minute instructions. He didn't pay much attention though. He knew the plan of attack and the enemy's weaks spots perfectly. Yet this was not much consolation when he remembered the enemy's many victories over much greater powers than himself. Sud- denly he received his signal. Beads of perspiration seemed to clog up all his senses as the bell rang and the challenger left his corner to meet the world's heavyweight boxing champion. -C. Taylor, Form III. MURDER ? It was a cold, windy nightg the rain was beating down on the earth as if it was trying to quench an uncontrollable fire. It was a dark and clarnmy night, a night that every man hates to go out in. From out of a forest, in the country, emerged a figure. It was that of a man, a big man with a hairy body. He was clothed only around his waist. In his hand he carried a big spiked club about four feet in length. With his ugly face, flashing eyes, and long dangling hair, he was the type of man one would go a long way to avoid meeting. He had the stature of a giant and his muscles bulged hugely. The rain did not seem to bother him even though it was beating in torrents on his bare head. He was walking with a slow, monotonous tread when suddenly he stopped dead in his tracks. His face turned pale and was screwed up as if in agony. He turned around, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 91 retracted his steps and then stopped. He looked down at his club and thought for a moment. Then, he turned around and began to run towards the object he had seen. The club was raised over his head and he bore it down upon the earth. He repeated this action again and again with every increasing vigour. At last he seemed satisfied. On his weapon there was a dark red stain which he looked at with a gloating expression on his face! Do you know what he had killed? Ah! I thought you would know. Yes, you are right, it was a POTATO BUG . -N. Seagram, Form IIAI. LIMERICK A fly and a flea in a flue, Were imprisoned, so what could they do? Said the fly, Let us flee . Said the flea, Let us fly , So they flew through a flaw in the flue. fWith acknowledgment to an unknown authorl -G. Richardson, Form I. MY PONY AND I I have a light brown pony Which I like to ride Over the meadows and streams Where the fishes glide. Down the road We race so fast, That I hardly notice The things we've passed. And when our run is over Back we come again. Down the road, lickety split, Till We turn into our lane. 92 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD There I turn my pony loose, To eat the nice green grass, Where he always lifts his head I And watches all who pass. -Brien Cowan, Form IA. PELE, THE FIRE GODDESS Almost every island in the Pacific has its own gods and myths but the most dramatic and realistic is that con- nected with the fire-pit of the goddess Pele on the island of Hawaii. This is found in the crater of Kilaula, the largest active volcano in the world. It is an almost perpendicular hole of an unknown depth, but large birds can fly so far down it that they look like specks yet are without injury from the heat and gases rising from the boiling lava. The goddess is supposed to reside at the bottom of this fiery pit. In the not so distant past, human sacrifices were thrown to Pele as peace offerings when the bubbling lava threatened to rise over the edge of the pit. Not a pleasant experience for the victim! Nowadays, the goddess must be content with offerings of ilowers or gifts of fruit. -C. O. Spencer, Form IIAI EVENING As the northern Alberta sun sank swiftly toward the horizon of the rock-lined hills, the bleak country appeared to turn rose. A grouse settled down for the night amid the clumps of grass beside his brooding mate. Its eyelids were just closing, when, suddenly it flung its frail body into the air with a loud whirring of wings. Along a thin, winding, antelope trail, a cowboy, anxious to reach a good camp-site before nightfall, was trotting briskly on a small bay mare, occasionally urging forward the lean gray packhorse who, laden with blankets, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 93 was lagging behind. By now the golden sun had dis- appeared, and the heavens were aglow with fiery streaks of orange and red. Once again the grouse was awakened by the clip clop of hooves. Over the high ridge, from behind which shone the orange glow, a band of horses, mares and foals, trooped in single file on their way to the water hole. When they were all gone, a stallion appeared and stood alone on the jutting rocks. sharply outlined against the gorgeous sky. his mane and tail whipping in the wind. He sent ai shrill whinny down into the hollow where the cowboy's ponies were tethered. They answered him, pulling anxiously on their halters with ears pricked sharply forward. Then. with a toss of his burr-filled mane, he plunged down the slope at a swift canter after his vanishing mares. The grouse stirred drowsily, clucked to his mate, and went back to sleep. He did not notice the glimmer of the camp-fire, the star-studded heavens, or the absence of the cowboy's horses. -E. L. Clarke, Form IIAI. THE BIG BOMBERS It has been remarked that the foundation of our air power is the big Gun of the air-our big bomber. The biggest of our bombers can carry enough gasoline for long and difficult trips. Though they are almost always accompanied by fighter planes, they are equipped with guns to be used if the flight must be continued alone. The crew of a bomber is like a football team, only it has a more serious purpose. All the members must con- sent to work together, and each must do his particular job at the proper moment. Not only that, but each must be prepared to take over other jobs if necessary. Indeed. there have been instances when all but two of the crew of nine have been killed or wounded, and these remaining two have shown that they could bring the ship back. 94 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD An important member of the crew is the bombardier. He uses a very accurate instrument, the bomb-sight, which tells him the exact moment to push a button connected with the racks on which the bombs are hung. When he touches the button, down fall the bombs. -H. Lafleur, Form IIB. CABIN LIFE ABOARD AN ATLANTIC FREIGHTER Crash! One of Mrs. Fitzgruntle's bottles of perfume hit the wall with a tinkle of glassy wintergreen ointment streamed down the sides of the cabin filling it with un- bearable odours. A low wail sounded from the bunk below me followed by loud coughing and spluttering as the S.S. Manchester Skipper heeled to the overwhelming force of the Atlantic. The ship righted herself and Mrs. Kerr slid slowly into a wash basin protesting as she went, followed by most of her belongings. Lying in my bunk, I could see the horizon rise and fall with dreary monotony. I sat up, banged my head on the pipe above, leaned weakly over the sideboard of my bunk! In the morning we were rudely interrupted by the smell of yeast as the bread was baked and none of us felt the least bit inclined to even think of eating! No one was regretful when we arrived in St. John, New Brunswick, a sorry, sickly bunch of passengers if there ever was one. -R. Jackson, Form IIA.

At the time of going to press the squad as a whole has shown much improve- ment since the beginning of the season although we still have a long way to go. In the only game to date played at Lakefield the :ight- ing spirit shown by all members of the team was good and our standard of play improved steadily throughout the game. With this good spirit present in the team I feel certain that We should be able to give a good account of ourselves even if we do not win all our games. SCHOOL vs. THE GROVE At Lakefield, January 29. Lost 7-3 Both showed considerable lack of match experience and in consequence the passing attack was rather weak on both sides. Lakefield showed greater strength on the de- fence and also a better ability to knock the puck in around the goal. T.C.S. started out rather slowly but improved in the last two periods. The score at the end of the first period was 2-0 for Lakefield. The School scored two goals in the second period and one in the third period. McDerment stood out for T.C.S. scoring all three goals.

Bland was born in Ingersoll, Ont., in 1878. He was at the School from 1891 until 1894 when he left to enter the Royal Military College. He graduated in 1897, and entered the employment of the C.P.R. and the Cana- dian Northern Railway. In 1900 he served in the Boer War as a Trooper in Lord Strathcona's Horse, winning the Queen's South African Medal with three clasps. In the following year he became Assistant Engineer, Imperial Military Railways, South Africa: from 1902 to 1908 he was with the Central South African Railways, and in the latter year became Executive Engineer Baro Kano Railway, Northern Nigeria. In 1912 he was appointed Director of Railways, Northern Nigeria, and in 1913 Assistant Chief Engineer Nigerian Railways. In the same year he went on a special mission to British Guiana to report on railway development. In rapid succession he became Engineer-in-Chief on construc- tion of the Nigerian Eastern Railway in 1914: General Manager Gold Coast Railways in 1917 , and General Man- ager of the Nigerian Railway from 1918 to 1933. In 1927 he was made a Companion of the Most Dis- tinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George. Mr. Bland was a life member of the Old Boys' Association. He died at his home in Matfield, Kent, England, on 3rd Decem- ber. 1946. GEORGE D. PERRY All T.C.S. people were saddened to hear of the death on January 2nd of George D. Perry, who was our Senior living Old Boy. Mr. Perry came to T.C.S. from Whitby 106 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD in September, 1869 and left in June, 1875. He was a son of John Ham Perry, former registrar of Ontario County, and he was in his ninetieth year when he died. - After he left T.C.S., Mr. Perry entered the old Stan- dard Bank in Colborne, Ontario, and later joined the Credit Valley Railway, now part of the C.P.R. He then Was appointed to the Dominion Telegraph Co. and served with that company and the Great North Western Telegraph Co. llater the Canadian National Telegraphsl until his retire- ment in 1925. He was appointed Vice President and Gen- eral Manager in 1911. Mr. Perry lived in Toronto for seventy years, he was a director of many companies and took keen interest in his work. A member of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club for many years, he was very fond of sailing. Mr. Perry was number 122 in the School register, which now lists the names of 4,058 boys. O In 1940 he attended the seventy-fifth anniversary re- union at Port Hope and later he often spoke of the pleasure he had in meeting old friends, seeing old places, and especially in saying the grace at lunch. The School extends its sympathy to Mr. Perry's family in their loss. FLOYD DOUGLAS MACDONALD HAMMOND Old Boys who were at the School between 1900 and 1904 will have heard with deep regret of the sudden death of F. D. M. Hammond in Peterborough on December 1, 1947. Doug Hammond will be remembered by his colleagues at School for his outstanding brilliance in sports. and especially for his swift running. In his final year he was a Prefect, and won all the running events from the 100 yards up to the Oxford Cup, with the exception of the half mile event in which he came second. He won his football. hockey and cricket colours and played on the cricket team CP- it 90 If ww ffzeif l sie 108 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD for three years. He also played tennis well and reached the semi finals in the singles tournament, being defeated by John Jukes of Vancouver. He won the Grand Chal- lenge Cup in 1904. After he left T.C.S. Mr. Hammond entered the Bank of Montreal, in Montreal, and continued his keen interest in running. He won the Athletic Association's Steeple- chase there the following summer and found the running easier than in the School Steeplechase and the Oxford Cup race. In the first world war he went overseas with an Ottawa battalion and after his army service he was on the staff of the records department at Ottawa for a time. In the past war he served as secretary of the National War Finance Committee in Peterborough, and a year ago was appointed Clerk of the Division Court in that city. Doug Hammond was always keenly interested in T.C.S. and was in charge of the War Memorial Fund for the Peterborough area when he died. Our sympathy goes to his widow and two sons. and his brother Dr. E. A. Hammond V92-'98l. ARCHIBALD EDYVARD WILSON A. E. Wilson came to the School in September, 1882, and left in June, 1886. He was the son of the late Rev. Edward Francis Wilson, who founded the first Indian school in Canada, known as the Shingwauk Home at Sault Ste. Marie. Keenly interested in Indian affairs, he was the first principal of the Washakada Indian School at Elkhorn, Man., where he served for twenty-eight years. He retired in 1918 and lived for some years in Victoria, B.C. Three years ago he left Canada to visit relatives in Scotland and died last autumn in Edinburgh after an illness lasting two years. TRINITY COLLEC-E sci-1ooL RECORD 109 Our sympathy goes to his widow, three daughters and brother, F. B. Wilson, who attended T.C.S. from 1882 until 1887 and is a Life Member of the Old Boys' Association. JOHN BURTON HOLLAND John Holland came to T.C.S. from Toronto in 1887 and left in 1889. Rejected for service in the Boer War, he reached the front by stowing away on a troopship: the officer com- manding the Canadian Troops made him the bugler, and as such he sounded the charge for the Royal Canadian Regiment at the Battle of Pardeburg in 1900. After the war he served for a time in the South African Constabulary but later he returned to Canada and was known in Toronto as a daring steeplechase rider. He died in December, 1947, from a heart attack. First Team sweater coats are now available in sizes 36 and 38. The price including crest and numerals is 81325. Please state numerals desired.

EDITORIAL This year again for the first time since early in the war we sent our hockey and basketball first teams to Montreal on the mid-term Week-end for a series of exhibi- tion games. Before the war several School teams made the trip to Ottawa and Montreal, the last occasion being in 1941, but for various reasons such long journeys were discontinued during the war. Now that they have been resumed it would seem that they are a good idea. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD For one thing, the games that are played are real fun! There is none of the strain and tenseness of a regular league game where a loss means a big difference in the league standing. Instead, the games are played merely for the sake of the game and the boys certainly get enjoy- ment from it, while, in the relaxed attitude they play even better. The boys on this year's hockey team felt that they had more fun playing the Bishop's game than any other this year, despite the fact that they lost. The Mon- trealers, of course, get an extra thrill out of being able to uphold the T.C.S. reputation which they have spread among their friends at home, but even then, the games are played merely in a spirit of friendly rivalry. For the boys who do not live in Montreal these trips provide a wonderful opportunity to get down to see the big city fthat is, if they are not too wrapped up in the social lifel. This chance to see another part of the coun- try with its different points of view cannot help but broaden a boy's outlook. After all, if we are to develop a unified Canada, we must get rid of the sectional prejudices among its future citizens. The boys from other parts like Ontario really appreciate this chance to see the Metro- polis , and many of us found it fascinating. These trips are also a good idea if we look at them from the Old Boy's point of view. During the war when they were discontinued, the Old Boys in Montreal lost touch with the School on the Hill and heard only vague reports of the happenings here. These games give them a chance to see the teams in action and keep their interest in the School by giving them closer contact with it. Especially is this true of some of the younger Old Boys who thus have a chance to renew many of the friendships formed at the School. The Old Boys seem to appreciate this opportunity, for they attended the games in large numbers and their hospitality was overwhelming. Of course, these trips have their disadvantages. This year some of the players became overly tired and it was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 blamed on the three games in four days, combined with the travelling. Actually the two consecutive games in Montreal might not be so tiring if in the future a league game just before the week-end could be avoided. For others the expenses of travel were almost prohibitive, yet actually those who went found the experience well worth it. On the whole, the trips to Montreal are, it would seem, a good idea, and it is to be hoped that the School will con- tinue them in the years to come. -R.L.W. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IN MEMORIAM COL. E. B. P. ARMOUR ' Col. Ponton Armour died in Toronto on Wednesday, February 25, and his death has saddened all T.C.S. people. Pont , as he was affectionately known by so many, came to the School in 1906 and left for R.M.C. in 1910. Later he attended McGill University but enlisted in the Artillery in 1914 when war broke out. He served four years in France, was promoted to the rank of Major and put in command of the 50th Battery. Always resourceful and fearless, he was wounded several times, once very seriously, and he was mentioned in despatches for bravery. After the war he founded the firm of Armour, Boswell, and Cronyn, and he carried on a very successful insurance business. ' After serving in the reserve force, he again went on active service in 1941 and became the O.C. of the third brigade, R.C.A., later called the 42nd Anti-Aircraft Regi- ment. In 1944 he was promoted to the rank of Colonel and given command of the 7th Toronto Group. After the war he returned to his insurance business. Ponton Armour was the son of E. D. Armour, K.C., C67-'68J, a famous Toronto lawyer and a Governor of the School for twenty years. Col. Armourls three sons, David. Peter, and John all attended T.C.S. and were among the first grandsons of Old Boys to enter the School. To Mrs. Armour and her family the School extends its deepest sympathy, no one who knew Ponton Armour can ever forget him. CHRISTOPHER CHARLES ROBINSON, K.C. Old Boys of T.C.S. were sorry to hear of the death on February 28 of Christopher Charles Robinson, K.C. Mr. Robinson was born in Orillia in 1883, son of the late Christopher Robinson, Q.C., and grandson of Sir John TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 Beverly Robinson. He attended T.C.S. during 1894-95 and was called to the Bar in 1907 in Toronto, created K.C. in 1922, practised in Toronto until 1930 and lived in Switzer- land from 1930 to 1939. Mr. Robinson was principally con- cerned with international, patent, and trade mark law. In addition to appearing before the Privy Council several times he was one of the arbitrators in the Cayuga Indian dispute in the United States and the dispute between Great Britain and Peru over petroleum concessions. His reputa- tion was international. The Saturday Night in a recent editorial paid tribute to Mr. Robinson's early preception of the full impact of the ruthless tendencies of the Hitler regime and his efforts to warn Canadians of the struggle that was to come. It was his effort that did as much as any writings in Canada to lead Canadian opinion to the nation's participation in the War when action became necessary. Our sympathy goes to his widow, three sons and three daughters. 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD gf.. ml I -me , ' fu- .--Li X ,x ' -f it E 5 gy V ' f - ifiif , I V hm NqfX '.'A- i If n' N , U, 1 It l'1Lv'A.1Kk ' J ' I L JMUAUI ' Jlfii, . , . ii :ax . see.. -... fi- . . . wig 1 s ..

Philip Carrington, Archbishop of Que- bec, spoke in Chapel on Sunday, February lst. His Grace said that he had noticed outside the Chapel the board with the names of our old boys who died in the War, and on it was the motto Animi Maximi meaning Great Souls. This brought to his mind the Hindu word for the same thing, Mahatma . It seems that while many peoples admire courage, strength and skill, the Hindus admire a great soul the most. His Grace said that Ghandi was loved by many and hated by many, but his influence Was spread over millions and he was indeed a Great Soul. He said that schools like T.C.S. endeavoured to train Great Souls and We are taught the necessary requirements, among which are discipline, self-control, and humility. We must realize, as Winston Churchill said, that there is something above us which makes the over-all plan and we are fortunate to be His humble servants. His Grace asked if some of us an k ,K 1355! 6 x ,- Si- .. aa., ,A '3- GELANDE ' SPRUNG TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 were not being called to the clergy. In any case every- one has a job waiting somewhere and we are lucky if we iind just the job that was made for us. He went on to tell us of some of his experiences in his diocese. He told us of travelling up the Labrador coast, of the little fishing villages Where all the people were so friendly, and how glad they were to receive the word of God. He said that he had held services in their parlours and that the Spirit of God was there just as much as in a great cathedral. In the summer these trips are made by boat and in winter by dog team. He appealed to us for more people to serve God in these remote places and told us of a missionary that takes the dog team run now. His Grace had met this man in England and the man had asked especially for that kind of work, because that was what he believed he was intended for. In closing he appealed to us to ask ourselves what we are being called to do, and, whether it is to enter the ministry or some other vocation, to Work in the service of God and country. il-11 Higher and Ever Upward The Headmaster in a thought-provoking address in Chapel the Sunday before Lent, February 8, urged us to have vision to realize our aims and to Work unfalteringly toward them. He drew attention to the picture in the Chapel entitled Excelsior which means Higher and ever upward . It is a picture of a young man exemplifying vision and high purpose and represents the hero of Long- fel1ow's poem of the same name. Mr. Ketchum told the story of this youth and said that We should try to show the same high purpose and vision, the same striving for an ideal. We should model our lives after great men who Were inspired to lead their fellow men and who kept to their purpose through many hardships. Vision and action make great leadersg to-day men of vision see the nations of the World pooling their resources in a great federation 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD or world family. Set your affections on things above, not on the earth beneath. Next Wednesday is the first day of Lent , concluded the Headmaster, let us all remem- ber Excelsior, which might well be interpreted, 'Lift up your hearts, we lift them up unto the Lord'.', Challenge to Youth The sermon on February 22 was given by the Rev. Mr. Cronk of the Port Hope United Church. Comparing youth to-day to David after his rejection by Solomon, he said that we have danger, adventure and difficulties ahead of us. He pointed out that any troubles We face and over- come serve only to strengthen us. The destiny of the world rests in the hands of the youth of to-day. Mr. Cronk expressed the opinion that a nation takes its char- acter from its leaders, pointing to Mr. Churchill as an example. He concluded by expressing the idea that the challenge to youth to-day, created by the mess man has made of his affairs, is greater than that which has ever faced any generation before. -il-i.-li-Q11 The Spirit -of Man On Sunday, March 7, the Headmaster spoke in Chapel. He compared the average span of man's life, about seventy years, to the age of the world, abo-ut two thousand million years. Generations come and go like the waves of the sea. rolling in, receding, all from the same source. If we had only a day to spend at the World's Fair we would not doze our time away, realizing what a short time we have here we should do our best to reach the heights while we are able to do so. One of the important problems to solve is how to strike a happy balance between mental and physical activities, between the more serious and less serious, between work and fun. Pleasure is not the be-all and end-all of life. The future of the world depends not TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 so much on the merely clever or brilliant, not so much on the physically strong but on men who through reading and study and meditation and spiritual power have acquired good judgment, understanding, patience, firmness, a sense of values, wisdom. The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. There are not many men in the world of such char- acter: they are crowded out by the mad scramble for poli- tical or financial power. Make yourselves companions of the great minds, said Mr. Ketchum, the soul is dyed by great thoughtsg get wis- dom, get understanding. A modern English writer named Sewell, quoted by Senator J. W. Fulbright, summed up our civilization clearly when he said: In the rich pattern of culture there are many strands, the Hebrew belief in God, the Christian message of compassion and redemption, the Greek love of truth, beauty, goodness, the Roman genius for law. Our civilization is a spiritual conception. But if men cease to hold that conception in their minds, cease to feel its worth in their hearts, it will die. Mr. Winston Churchill, reading that passage, com- mented: These are not my words but they are my faith. We cannot really experience that spiritual conception by thinking about it overnight. It is the wisdom that matures slowly, but if we wish our civilization to live and have a chance to perfect itself, we must indeed give serious thought and study to it. We can make a sure beginning by laying the corner stones of our faith and religion. True religion is the hope of the civilized world, you can do nothing better than read the great writings of the Old and New Testaments on which our life is rooted and grounded, then add the thoughts of the great men of all ages. If a digest of the good life is required we have the words of Christ, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and all thy soul and all thy mind, and thy 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD neighbour as thyself , or read the thirteenth chapter of the Iirst epistle to the Corinthians substituting the words The Good Life for charity, or read Psalm No. 15, Who- so doeth these things shall never fall -and the people who do these things shall never fall. Toe H. On the evening of Tuesday, March 9, the Rev. Gilbert Williams, Chaplain of To-c H., spoke in Chapel. He told us a little about this society which helps every kind of person in every Way that it can. He told us that it grew out of a house in the First World War where soldiers could go and rest, and Where they could receive spiritual guid- ance. It was named Talbot House after Gilbert Talbot. the son of the Bishop of Winchester who was killed in 1916. The soldiers came to call it Toc H, as toc is the phonetic for T, and when the organization started up again after the war, Toc H became its official name. It is an entirely non-political organization, and it does what it can to help all sorts of people. Mr. Williams left us with the advice that we must not let ourselves drift, and that We must not think sectionally. - Love and Forgiveness On Sunday, March 14, Mr. Bagley took as the subject of 'his sermon the true conception of God's mercy and for- giveness regarding our sins. He took as his theme the story of Christ's forgiveness of the sinful woman who anointed His feet because of her love and devotion to Him and hence to His Father. Mr. Bagley then pointed out a parallel in our relations with God, showing that not only repentance, but also the love of God is necessary if we are to have complete forgiveness. God suffers when we do wrong, because of His fatherly love for us. -liil-l -.

The Political Science Club The Political Science Club, because of the many activities this term, has held only two meetings since the last 'issue of the Record. In the first, Mr. Humble gave an interesting talk on Communism and what should be done about it in Canada. He suggested that improving Canada both politically and economically was the only sound method of defeating Communism in Canada-poli- tically by an increased awareness of our obligations as citi- 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD zens and economically by eliminating marginal standards of living. An exhaustive discussion followed Mr. Humble's talk. In the second meeting Mr. Hodgetts gave the second part of his lecture on the C.C.F. He especially stressed its phenomenal rise during the war and the reasons for this. - The Debating Club Since the last issue of the Record went to press there have been five inter-school debates with three different schools. With U.T.S. and B.S.S. We debated on the same resolution here and there simultaneously, upholding one side of the question here and the opposite point of View when away. We also had a single debate with Trinity College. Because of the great amount of inter-school de- bating. there has been little time to devote to debates within the School itself, as has been the custom in the past. With the advent of so much inter-school debating and the increase in interest and participation, the level of debating in the School has risen sharply. We Wish the T.C.S. Debating Society the best of luck in this year of distinction and hope that the interest aroused this year will carry over into the future. 1. Mr. Adaski11'S Concert On Tuesday, February 24, the School was privileged to hear a concert by Mr. Harry Adaskin, Professor of Music at the University of British Columbia. Accompanied by his wife. Frances Marr, at the piano, he played a Well chosen group of selections consisting of Beethoven's Sonata. Opus 30, No. 3 in G, a Concerto by Delius, Chanson Arabe by Rimsky-Korsakoff, Obertass Mazurka by Wieni- awski. La plus que lente Waltz by Debussy, and Hoe Down by Aaron Copland. Mr. Adaskin was then called back for three encores for which he played the Christmas TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 Cradle Song by Max Reger, The Road to the Isles, and a collection of Hungarian tunes by Hubar. After such clap- ping little doubt could be left about the Schoo1's apprecia- tion. It was a memorable concert, first because of Mr. Adaskin's artistry and because of the extraordinary team work between him and his aceomptanist. Violin, Cello, and Piano Recital On Thursday evening, February 5, the first in a series of concerts demonstrating some of the instruments of the orchestra, was held in the Hall. We were indeed fortunate in having three very talented young musicians, James Innes, violin, Mary Oxley, violon-cello, and John C-oveart, piano, who gave a delightful performance. The programme opened with the playing of the Trio in A major by Haydn. Following this, James Innes, accompanied by John Coveart, gave a violin solo, playing Minuet by Popera arranged by Kreisler, Melody by Tchaikowsky, and Guitarre by Mosgkowski, arranged by Sarasate. Mary Oxley then gave a 'cello solo, again accom- panied by Mr. Coveart, playing The Bard's Legacy a traditional Irish air, Marche by Arthur Benjamin, and Hungarian Rhapsody by David Popper. The Trio then played Hornpipe by Frank Bridge, Deep River by Wil- liam Fisher, and Hungarian Dance No. 6 by Brahms. With the playing of Moments Musicales by Schubert as an encore, this very successful concert was brought to a close, the School enjoyed it thoroughly. The Flute Recital On Thursday, March 4, the School was privileged to hear Mr. Dirk Keetbaas, a flutist from the Royal Con- servatory of Music, and Miss Yvonne Guiguet, who played several solos as well as accompaniments for Mr. Keetbaas. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Since this was the first time that a ilutist had been heard in the School, it presented a novelty plus the enjoyment of classical music by some lesser known composers. The School wishes to thank Mr. Keetbaas and Miss Guiguet for their very enjoyable concert. Archbishop Carrington's Visit On Monday. February 2, the School received a most welcome whole holiday at the request of the Most Rev. Philip Carrington, Archbishop of Quebec, who was visit- ing the School for the week-end. As the School had Worked hard in January, the Headmaster thought the holiday was deserved. The School takes this opportunity of thanking the Archbishop for his kindness. Half-Holiday On Thursday, March 4, the birth of a third son to Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Humble was the occasion of a much appreciated half-holiday for the School. There are now three good prospects as stars for a future Bigside Hockey team. The School extends its congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Humble. Mrs. Ketchum's Birthday On Friday, March 12, the School received a half holi- day honouring Mrs. Ketchum's birthday. This event took place several days before on the 7th, but due to bad Weather it could not be celebrated until Friday. 1-11 The Montreal Week-end Accompanied by many supporters and admirers, the hockey and basketball teams left on Thursday, February 26, to play some exhibition games in Montreal.

The hockey team lost to Bishops, and tied Lower Canada but everyone agreed that the games were hard-fought and thrilling for the spectators. The basketball team won a thriller from Westmount High but slipped badly the following day against Montreal High. So much for the games. A number of stalwarts made the L.C.C. dance on Fri- day night, and this was followed by a surprise C El party at Bob Timminsi Saturday night found most of the team weaker in flesh but still willing in spirit, and a succession of parties at the Morgan's, the Pangman's, and the Mor- gan's again, plus a few dances at Victoria Hall highlighted a very enjoyable evening. The hospitality shown the teams was wonderful. Many Old Boys turned out for the games, a luncheon was given for the teams Saturday by the Alpha Delt fraternity of McGill, and many were the social events. The teams will not forget the kindness of their Montreal hosts. Handicrlaft Exhibit On Sunday, March 14, the School had the privilege of seeing an exhibit of handicrafts arranged by the Cana- dian Handicrafts Guild of Ontario and circulated by the Art Gallery of Toronto. Fine examples of stoneware, wood-work, pottery, wool, metal, linen and some finished sweaters and scarves were displayed, proving that every- one can do handicraft work. The School is indebted to the Art Gallery for lending us such a line exhibit. The Save The Children Fund Following gentle hints from the Headmaster, and persuasive efforts by the Prefects and Seniors, the School rose to the occasion and responded well to the appeal for 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Save The Children Fund , giving over three hundred dollars.

February 10, the annual pan- cake toss was held in the gym. Mr. Grace tossed the putty pancake which this year, for the first time, was dissected before it was thrown. The mad scramble was on. Several minutes later the twelve battered contestants, one without his pants, lined up to have their putty weighed. The five dollars was won for the third form by Savage who had a major portion hidden in his pant leg. The contestants then retired to their rooms to rub their bruises. while the third form departed for the tuck shop to enjoy the tradi- tional celebration. Ross i was forced to wait until some- one brought him a pair of trousers. Friday, February 13 It could only have happened on Friday the thirteenth and it did. Without warning the power was cut at about 5.45 in the afternoon and this left Mr. Scott declaiming on the theme of cos theta and several gum trees, in total darkness. It also cut short Mr. Morris' discourse on whether a cap Hts or not. Supper would have been held in total darkness had it not been for the radiant smiles of the kitchen staff and Mrs. Scott's thoughtfulness in providing TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 a myriad of candles. Unfortunately, things returned to normal shortly before Chapel but the cafe scene was won- derful while it lasted.

At U.T.S., February 6 In an interesting inter-school debate between U.T.S. and T.C.S. at U.T.S., the resolution that Canada should adopt a system of socialized medicine was brought before the house. Loukras, Lockhart, and Shirriff of U.T.S. argued for the affirmative while Taylor, Alley, and Ful- ford of T.C.S. upheld the negative, supporting their argu- ment from the moral viewpoint. They claimed such a system was detrimental to the welfare of the people while the affirmative used the obvious facts presented by a policy of socialized medicine, to prove the benefits of such a system. The chair was occupied by Tom Symons and the judges were two members of the Ontario College of Education. The judges awarded the decision to the nega- tive and Fulford was regarded the best speaker of the evening. A division of the house also gave T.C.S. the decision. In all, the debate proved a great success. .l- SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. At T.C.S. February 7. On the evening of February 7, a T.C.S. debating team defeated an opposing trio from U.T.S. at the School. It was resolved that Canada should adopt socialized medicine. with Williamson. Watts, and Rhea representing the Govern- ment. The U.T.S. representatives Donald Gordon, Peter Hopkins, and David Fry, formed the Opposition and follow- ing an introductory speech from Snowdon, the Speaker, the contest began. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 The Government attempted to prove their point by drawing a parallel with similar medical services in Eng- land and showed how both doctor and patient would bene- fit. The Opposition claimed that Canada's medical facili- ties were already adequate and that socialization would merely destroy the principle of free enterprise. Speeches from the floor were conspicuous by their absence with Gaunt and Cleland being the main participants. When the smoke of battle cleared away, the judges returned to give their decision. Although the House had favoured the Opposition 45- 13, the judges gave the victory to T.C.S. by a split decision. The School was honoured to have as judges the Rev. Mr. Fowler lChairmanJ, the Rev. Mr. Cronk, and Mr. Dith- ridge, a well known engineer. Peter Hopkins was considered the best speaker of the evening with Williamson running a close second. This debate may be classed as one of the best of the year. , l- SCHOOL vs. B.S.S. At T.C.S., February 21. On Saturday, February 21, we held our first debate with our sister school, Bishop Strachan School. The motion before the house was: Resolved that a vocational training is preferable to an education in the liberal arts. T.C.S. upheld the affirmative. The attendance was very large and it was obvious where the feelings of the House lay, as was later shown by a division which Was overwhelmingly in favour of the Opposition. J. P. Williamson acted as Speaker. N. T. Burland was the first speaker for the affirma- tive. He defined the terms vocational training and liberal arts showing that there was a great deal of similarity between the two. He pointed out that a voca- tional training in its role as a training for life had many of the virtues of a liberal education. Miss Graydon, the 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD first speaker for the negative, discussed the effects of a vocational training and how it led to the formation of a one track mind. C. Taylor, the second speaker for the affirmative, developed the first speaker's argument, show- ing that the various virtues resulting from a liberal educa- tion were often found among those who had never had that type of education, for example the farmer. Miss Tyrell, the second speaker for the negative, was the best speaker of the evening. She clearly followed up the first speaker's arguments elaborating on the fact that a liberal training was essential for a full understanding of life, and was, in fact, required by most Universities as a basis for most professions. She cited law as an example. D. Cross, the last speaker for the affirmative, contended that since the social conditions of today make it impossible for the average man to spend a large part of his life without earn- ing his keep, and since modern specialization makes any training a long one, fusing the doctor as an examplel a vocational training was the only solution. Miss Russel the final speaker for the negative, rebutted expertly several of the affirmative's points and then expanding her colleague's argument, rounded off their debate. Mrs. Foote, Miss McLellan, and Mr. Boulden were the judges. Mrs. Foote, in presenting the verdict, gave an excellent analysis of the debate as a whole, showing a deep insight into the art of debating. She announced that the judges were awarding the decision to the negative as they felt that the affirmative, although they had the seeds of a good argument, did not develop it clearly enough. SCHOOL vs. B.S.S. At B.S.S., February 21. On Saturday evening, February 21, a School debating team consisting of Rhea, Snowdon and Watts exchanged words on the subject of a vocational training as opposed to an education in the liberal arts, with a B.S.S. team in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 the informal setting of the B.S.S. library. Adelaide Wat- son, Barbara Screaton and Helen Wilson took the affirma- tive for B.S.S. Miss Honour Edgelow took the chair and the judges were Mr. James Bigger fChairmanJ from U.C.C. and two teachers from Lawrence Park Collegiate. Miss Watson spoke first for the affirmative and in an extremely good speech pointed out the need for security and how this could only be obtained from a vocational training. Rhea opened for the negative with a witty speech, demonstrating effectively how teachers and wives must be human rather than robots and mix-masters. Miss Screaton, second speaker for the affirmative, stated that a steady income could only be gained from a technical education. The second speaker for the negative, Snow- don, then mentioned the need for a broad outlook as gain- ed by an education in the humanities. Miss Wildon, in summing up the aflirmative arguments, stressed the need for specialization. Watts then rebutted effectively several of the main arguments of the affirmative in a well or- ganized speech, and Miss Watson closed the debate with a short rebuttal. The judges brought in a verdict in favour of T.C.S. saying that on points the teams were almost equal, but that the manner of speaking and general deportment of the Trinity team swung the decision in their favour. After the debate, the T.C.S. team was royally regaled with refreshment by the vanquished but still potent B.S.S. team. The debate was very capably handled by all speakers, and a pleasant addition to School life was initiated in this Brother and Sister school debate and We hope for many more in the future. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SCHOOL vs. TRINITY COLLEGE At Port Hope, March 6. The resolution that Canada is too conservative poli- tically , was presented in the Hall on Saturday, March 6, with T.C.S. being represented by Williamson, Snowdon, and Fulford and Trinity College by Pearson, Forbes, and Symons. Watts took the chair for the debate in which T.C.S. upheld the motion. Mr. H. S. R. Ryan of Port Hope kindly consented to act as chairman of the judges, the others being Mr. Farmer and Mr. Wiles. For the affirmative, Williamson pointed out that con- servatism prevented the revision of the Constitution and the whole political set-up, Snowdon showed how small a part Canada was playing in international affairsg Fulford showed how conservative politics was affecting our domes- tic life generally. C For the negative, Pearson emphasized the sound pro- gress Canada had made during her short life as a Do- minion, Forbes gave an American point of view on the stability of Canadian democracyg and Symons made an extremely effective rebuttal speech. The best speeches were delivered by Symons who was outstanding and Wil- liamson. Before the judges returned their split decision in favour of T.C.S., the house vote was taken following some good speeches from the floor, particularly one by Beament. The House voted in favour of the negative, however, in a debate which everyone considered most interesting. Follow- ing this, there was some club-house debating at the Lodge.

FREE! fOn the 20th Anniversary of the School Fire we pre- sent this report on the fire for the interest of those who have not heard a complete account of it.J Dear Old Trinity College School Burns was the startling headline which appeared in a Toronto newspaper on a Monday in March, 1928. It must have been equally startling to the occupants of a Toronto movie theatre when, as an unusually reliable source has told us, several loud voices yelled Let her burn! Let her burn as the news of the fire was flashed on the screen, on that after- noon. The fire started on Saturday, March the 3rd at 1.45, 2.00, 2.30 or 3.00 p.m. depending on your source of information. Two o'clock is probably the most accurate one. The fire is attributed to any one of the following: -boys smoking in the cricket room -Mr. Grace's pipe -spontaneous combustion of oily rags -faulty wiring -sparks from an electric welder lthis was suggested by several sources but none stated that there had been a welder there, or what he was welding.J -an over-heated stove in a changing room -an irregular bulge in a window-pane having the effect of a magnifying glass and starting the fire. 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD . The damage was estimated variously by the news- papers at S750,000, S500,000, S400,000 and 3225,000. About S275,000 is probably the correct figure. It was announced immediately that the buildings were fully insured, but the insurance was only iS225,000. If Dr. Orchard had said nothing about the insurance the School perhaps would have received more public sympathy and donations. Not only were accounts confused, but the fire was too. It did not follow the line of buildings as would be expected, but jumped across diagonally, making futile Mr. Lewis' efforts to drench the connecting arch between the gym and the School building. The fire had started in the cricket room in the wooden covered rink and spread to the gymg then the Lodge caught from sparks blown by a zero north-west wind. The roof fire on the Lodge was extin- guished but not before the Head had removed valuable papers and records to the fireproof school for safekeeping. The continued threat to the Lodge caused them to remove all the furniture, and many of Mrs. Orchard's valuable antiques were hurled from second storey windows by en- thusiastic salvagers. It was in this operation that a fall- ing board gave Dr. Orchard the scrape across his nose which made him the only casualty of the fire. However, we are getting ahead of ourselves. It is not known who discovered the fire first, boys skating on the rink or boys outside. Two of the groundsmen, how- ever, were not long in connecting the hose used to flood the rink, but their efforts were foiled by some over-zealous rescuers who contrived to wrap some lockers up in the hose in the narrow passageway. By the time the hose was freed something had happened to the pressure and the water merely trickled out rather uselessly. When the gym. was seen to be in danger, operations to remove the apparatus began there. Several pieces of gym. equipment, still in use today, were saved, and, thanks to the efforts of Scott Medd of Peterborough, the rifles and ammunition were rescued. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 At this point things became slightly organized. The fire alarm, a bugle call, was sounded and the boys assem- bled outside minus many of their Prefects fthe whole first hockey team was away playing in Torontol. The boys of the Junior School were kept prisoners in their building while the excitement raged outside as one newspaper put it. Everyone else was accounted for. The boys were then instructed to salvage everything movable from the School buildings. In their eagerness to obey they commenced by throwing things out the windows. Because some people took a dim view of the danger of falling articles, the boys were formed into a line which passed out bundles of clothing, books and rubbish , to be piled around the Cross which stood about where Bethune House is today. When the gym. was well ablaze the Port Hope Fire Department arrived-in part. The horse-drawn hook and ladder skidded into a tree while coming around the corner by the B-A station and stayed there for the rest of the afternoon. With the hose which did arrive they managed to drain the town' water tank but with no apparent effect on the fire because the tank was not high enough to give sufficient pressure. When the pumpers arrived from Co- bourg and Oshawa there was no water left for them to pump. To keep the horses warm, the fire wagon, loaded with youngsters from the town, was driven round and round the campus. To Fire Chief Ware it was hopeless from the start although he did not see the beginning. Meanwhile rescue work went on. A boy named Price. from Quebec, with Dr. Orchard, was largely responsible for saving many of the chapel furnishings. An old mowing machine which had never been persuaded to cut grass in spite of much sharpening and tinkering was carried out of the buildingsg then one of the groundsmen who knew it well came across it outside. After a moment of profound contemplation he picked it up and took it back inside. Some pieces of science equipment were taken out, includ- ing a Kipp Generator for H2S which was placed near the 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Hospital. It was some time before the nurse could under- stand Where the sudden extraordinary smell originated.

These, it is believed, ignited the wooden beams under the slate roof, for the fire spread the length of the building to the classroom wing through the attic. When the fire was starting in the eaves, one boy leaned out a top storey window trying to douse the fire. A master, Mr. Geldard, yelled at him from the ground below to get in from his precarious perch. The boy, just then aiming another bucket, went slightly off balance and dumped its contents on his unfortunate critic. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 The hre ate its way down through floor after floor and by six o'clock the whole building had caught fire. The height of the iire had been passed but it kept on burning all through.the night, and the brisk wind created a most impressive pyrotechnic display with the sparks and the embers. A master returning from Toronto saw the fire from Bowmanville, and it is reported to have been seen from Rochester although this is doubted by some of the more scientific minds around the School. The embers, fanned by a strong wind, blazed up again for a short while on Sunday morning. This same Wind blew down a wall. During the day one could walk up the stairs, and in the cement floored corridors, while the rooms around were completely burnt away, and yet in these corridors some clothes were found unharmed. A similar phenomenon was discovered in the science room which was saved by a cement floored masters' Washroom overhead. Room No. 65 on the north-west corner was not touched by the fire. The Lodge was saved, and the Hospital, although threatened, was not touched by flames. Its patients, stricken with mumps, were kindly accommodated in homes in Port Hope. All the things carried out of the School were taken in trucks and cars down to the town armouries just behind the Post Office. Much clothing, and most of the School bedding was stolen, but some of the stolen articles were recovered, including two B.S.A. rifles. After the boys had been sent home the masters set about sorting the clothing which was later returned to its owners at Woodstock. There are other stories about the fire, such as the one about the maid who wept on Saturday afternoon be- cause there was no fire in the kitchens to make toast for the masters' tea, but it is difficult to judge their veracity. Altogether, as a fire, it was a roaring success, especially when compared to its predecessors. The tires in 1893 were rather minor coniiagrations causing only slight damage to the top flat. The one in 1895 burned the whole 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD School building down but they were able to use most of the walls in constructing the new School, a building as nearly fireproof as can be made. The 1928 fire was much more devastating leaving only the boiler room,and part of the chapel walls for use again. If the trend continues the next fire will leave nothing. By the use of higher mathe- matics it has been calculated that the next fire will occur suddenly with great explosive force early in the Michaelmas term of 2472 A.D. MP. H. R. Alley, VI sch. THE SCHOOL CAR The School was recently saddened through the loss of an old, true friend, namely the black Dodge, probably better known as the School Car. He gave . . .all he had, a tear -and though a tear was generally all that could be evoked from the car, still one felt a pang of regret, on hearing that the old Wreck had been sold down the river to the service station on Ward Street in Port Hope. Undoubtedly the car had two strikes against it when it was purchased by the School in 1938. By then, it was decidedly second hand, having done over a hundred thousand taxi miles in Toronto. And, no doubt the new engine did not benefit from the fifty odd miles of its maiden venture, when it was driven from Bethany to Port Hope, with no oil. The car just never Was the same after that trip. Nevertheless it saw yeoman service despite the con- stant abuse it received. It was generally left outside in all types of weather and usually lacked various essential mechanisms. It was an unfortunate individual that had to drive it and many rather unfortunate individuals did. Admittedly its appearance was shabby. The dashboard did not have the ability to make out income-tax returns and fry eggs, as dashboards in modern cars do, and its lines seemed closer to the Too Fat Polka , than to the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 modern sleek, trim, jobs, yet its appearance was striking to say the least. It was like an old war-horse stirred by the cavalry trumpet. Whenever it took the road, other cars slowed up and headed for the sides, the better to see it pass, and pedestrians scurried to the ditches as if a magic spell had been cast. Perhaps, though, this was caused by the fact that the car had an unmistakable swing to the left. It always did seem to favor the abyss beneath the Bowmanville bridge. Perhaps Mr. Key was a bit hard on it .last autumn when he drove eight boys in it to St. Andrew's. CWe all know that Mr. Key is a slave-driverl. Shortly after, it was sold to someone in town where it rests in a state of semi-retirement. If the movement to suspend it from the roof of our gym. or to mount it on the Tuck Tower is successful, it may yet return to the School. But this was not the only School car. The first one was a 1928 model Chevy, which was given to the School in 1931. Probably the less said about it the better, because most of what is said is unprintable. At present, the School is the proud possessor of a new Jeep Station-Wagon-the successor to the Dodge. Stories are not yet available on it because its life in the School is still in its infant stages. However, the Station-Wagon came as a surprise to the School which seemed to favor the suggestion once made that the School invest in a Buick Station-Wagon. But perhaps everyone Will be happy if, as promised C?l, the next School car is a convertible heli- copter. ---D. A. H. Snowdon, VIA. .,..l.l....l.1-i DEBATING AT T.C.S. 7 As far as can be made out from ancient Records, debating at T.C.S. received its first organized start in 1914 when a Debating Society was formed under the direction of Mr. W. R. P. Bridger. The present Headmaster was a member and boys like Beaners Clarke and Muscoe Gar- 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD nett used to give impassioned orations in the small class- room next to the old chapel. The training ground was the bath house and victims would march up and .down de- claiming to the four walls. This society which started with great vigour gradually lost appeal until in 1919 it completely collapsed. Except for a minor Literary Society effort in 1922 and 1923, debating did not appear again un- til 1931 when another Debating Society, under the presi- dency of the Rev. F. Graham' Orchard, came into existence, amid since that date debating under various controls and societies has kept going more or less steadily. In 1933 the present Headmaster began the plan of having debates in the Hall in parliamentary fashion and for some years all Sixth and Fifth form boys had to speak. Through the years certain topics seem to have had an especially strong attraction for T.C.S.g the merits of capital punishment have been debated five times at the School, debates on the conscription issue have been held during both World Warsg the New Boy system, the superiority of air power over naval power, the relative worth of competition and co-operation, labour unions, pro- fessionalism in sport, and the advantages of primitive man are other old recurring favorites. Certain topics that have been debated here in the past probably to-day do not have the same interest that they once hadg for instance. Resolved that Ireland should have Home Rule and Re- solved that women should have a parliamentary vote are only debatable to-day when changed to the negative. Of the many humorous resolutions that have been tried the best is undoubtedly Resolved that instead of the Pilgrim Fathers landing on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock should have landed on the Pilgrim Fathers. Humorous topics, however. have not been nearly as popular as resolutions of current importance or even the old debating chestnuts. While inter-school debates have been held in the past, we have participated, this year, in more inter-school de- bates than ever before. Perhaps in future years a regular TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 debating team might be organized. It is, after all, as important to develop speaking ability as skating ability. -D. W. Fulford, vi sch. THE RABBIT HOCKEY LEAGUE And it's not for the sake of a ribboned coat. Or the selfish hope of a season's fame, But his captain's hand on his shoulder smote- Play up! play up! and play the game! -Hence the Rabbit League! Three teams this year comprised the Rabbit League- the Angoras, captained by Macklem ig the Chinchillas, by Palmer, and the Cottontails, by that seasoned old Rabbit Conyers. Bunny Austin was unanimously appointed President of the League. Since it is the privilege of the President to stand cokes to the team winning the championship and as all three teams, after two months of strenuous hockey, wound up all square -each with twelve points, small wonder is it that the president finds himself the most popular boy in School! From the conglomeration of starlets that performed in the League a team was chosen to represent the League. For their first game they took on the Masters-those stars of former years. And the young rabbits learned that there's no rabbit like an old rabbit. On the same day, the same team, profiting from the lesson they got from the masters played the Lakefield Rabbits-they won 6-5. Black for the School scintillated and Smith pirouetted all over the ice like a ballerina. Goals, however, were scored by Wilding 121, Panet, Spencer, Harvey and Bongard. In the return game played at Lakefield, so terrific was our shooting and so deadly our aim that our rivals found it necessary to use no fewer than three goal-tenders against us. This novel strategy-coaches' opinions to the 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD contrary--paid off, and the Grove left the ice triumphant 6-5. Kilroy for the School was magnificent. After the Lakefield games, so keen was the en- thusiasm that the Rabbits were again divided into three teams-those bred in Ontario, those bred in Quebec, and those rabbits of a foreign strain. Two games have so far been played. Ontario and Quebec tied 7-7, and Quebec beat those of a foreign strain 7-3. The Champions? Who knows? Who cares? We have played!-we have won!-We have lost! But it's the man- ner of the playing that counts! In all our games not one single penalty was handed out to a T.C.S. rabbit! Floreat Trinitas! The All-Star Rabbit Team:- Panet-Captain of the team, and as such threw his weight around effectively. , Lawson-Goal. An excellent right wing who showed up well in basketball. Bongard-A hard-checking defence man with a terrific shot. He nearly scored against the Masters. Wilding-A rugged hard-checking wing. Nominated for Hockey's Hall of Fame for scoring against the Masters. Strathy-A left wing who patrols his lane with reckless abandon. Sometimes, however, forgets that hockey is played with a puck. Black-Centre. Called by his team-mates The Rocket . Not because he resembles Maurice Richard in any way but on account of the way he rocks at the ankles. The team's leading goal scorer. Selke please note. Conyers- So smooth, so firm, so tightly packed -a re- fuge from the defunct smokers' team. Harvey ii-Centre. Plays hard but spends too much time on the ice wondering where Spencer is and what he's doing. Spencer-Wing. Skates dramatically-a good basketball player. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Smith i-Utility man. The Barbara Ann of the team. Skates terrifically-in all directions. The biggest shot on the team. Should play basketball. Cox-A Very fast talking wing who stick-handles magni- ficently-with one hand. Has a terrific shot if and when he can get both hands on the stick. Must learn to skate. Palmer-Discarded by the Juveniles, the Midgets and the minor-midgets, he learned his hockey in sunny British Columbia. Did an excellent job of captaining the Chinchillas. McIntyre-Star of last year's rabbit team, who forgot to turn out this year. Rumour has it he's been prac- tising hard for Middleside Cricket. More power to his elbow! -G.R.G.T. ,.1l. di' ly . .

I was standing with a small group of boys who were laugh- ing and talking boisterously, but I did not join in their masculine humour. All my attention was concentrated on a girl who was dancing among the other couples. She moved more gracefully than anyone I had ever seen. The boy dancing with her had just caused her to laugh and the smile surpassed any visions of beauty I had ever dreamt of. Her auburn hair hung neatly about her shoulders and it looked soft and natural, unlike so many of the modern coiffures. Although I enjoyed dances I was inclined to be rather shy. The sight of the girls in their beautifully coloured dresses and the boys circling around the floor in a pattern of weaving couples gave me peculiar enjoyment. Because I was rather awkward with my feet it was a sheer duty to approach girls and ask for dances. That was the reason I wasn't dancing when I saw this particular girl. Slowly, as I followed her movements I made a deci- siong I must ask her for the next dance. Surely the fact that she seemed so naturally lithe would cover up my awkward movements. I was determined to meet her. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 The music stopped. The boy thanked her and she moved over to speak to another girl. My feet were im- movable. I could feel my heart was noticeably disturbed. It seemed impossible to summon the courage to cross the floor, and ask her for a dance. Just as I thought that I had conquered my fear another boy led her towards the floor and as the music started, my attention was again captured by the beautiful girl spinning around and around. It was an old waltz. Fewer people were dancing now and I was conscious of other people watching the gracefulness of the same girl. This made me uncomfortable because I knew now that I would never have the courage to ask her for that coveted dance. After that particular number the host stepped to the middle of the floor and asked each girl to put one shoe in a pile on the floor. The boys were to pick out a shoe, find its owner and dance with her. There was much laughter and giggling as the girls contributed their shoes and the boys began discussing what luck they would have. It took me some time to realize what a chance this was. If only I picked the right shoe there would be no need to overcome my fear. If the right shoe did fall into my hands I should be able to dance with the girl to whom I so longed to talk. A glance at the heap confirmed the 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD feeling that it would be a very slim chance of getting the proper oneg in fact it was extremely improbable. However, even at that slight hope my breath came irregularly and I flushed. Any minute now there would be a dive for the shoes and my fate would be revealed. The host gave the signal. A great scuffling and yell- ing began. I found myself desperately grabbing at the pile of shoes but every time I grabbed, it was just too late. Luckily, however, I did nab one before anyone got it and almost at the same instant the floor was bare. We were just getting up when someone behind me grabbed the shoe out of my hand. I spun around but no one looked guilty. There was no way I could tell who took it as I hadn't even had a chance to see the shoe. My anger was only overcome by a flood of disappoint- ment which invaded my very soul. Even the one slim chance of getting the shoe I wanted was denied me. Quickly I crossed the floor and sat down on one of the chairs near the door, with the few extra boys. Few time before had I felt so deeply hurtg my whole being felt shrivelled and dismayed. Almost by chance I noticed a boy holding out the girl's shoe to her with a broad grin and sparkling eyes. At once I hated him. As if by magic all my bitter anger was vented against him. He, of all the people there, was going to have that dance, the dance I had set my hope on, with this bewitching girl. There was no apparent cause for my hatred except jealousy but some uncontrollable thought pervaded my being and set me against him. To my utter amazement the girl took her shoe, said a few words and walked away. Although I felt little pity for the boy I was disappointed to think that the girl who seemed to me so good could be that rude. She looked searchingly around after putting on her shoe and began coming towards my side of the room. For a second everything blurred and seemed confused. I realized then she must have seen the boy snatch the shoe TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 away and was now coming towards me. Just as I regained my composure I heard her say beside me, May I have this dance, please ? --H. H. Vernon, VI Sch. - IS A STATE-CONTROLLED PRESS DESIRABLEZ' In an age where the power of the press is such that it constitutes the chief influence in forming public opinion, the reasonable doubt arises as to whether such power should rest in the hands of individual publishers, or whether it should be relegated to the government. A free press in time of peace constitutes a powerful force for good or evil, and in time of war a dangerous threat to national security. The newspaper to-day which publishes honest and unbiased reports is a rarity. During the recent war irresponsible publishing of matters whose secrecy was essential to the national war effort drew justi- fied criticism. We recognize the fact that newspapers are run by organizations or individuals with certain political convictions, and the common conclusion drawn is that such interests tend to cancel one another, that the reader of two opposed extremist publications obtains a more or less accurate presentation of the facts. However, how many people take the trouble to compare two periodicals for the purpose of acquiring the true facts? Most people select one newspaper, either because it supports their own political convictions, whether by fact or phantasy, or be- cause, in their opinion, it presents a fairly accurate picture of events as they are. This, and the fact that we live in a country where it is possible for a politician to padlock the offices of a periodical whose opinions he considers dangerous, would indicate that the average reader obtains from a newspaper a much distorted version of news as it should be reported. To this must be added the fact that newspaper policies are not dictated wholly by the opinions of the owners. There have been instances not so long ago 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD in this province of advertisers forcing newspapers to sup- press facts detrimental to the success of their business. In a country such as ours, where the government is elected by the people and presumably carries out the wishes of the majority of the voters, the success of the poli- tical organization depends upon an informed public. If the people are to vote reasonably they must understand the issues at stake and what the government is doing about them. It is in this field that our newspapers fall down most in their duty. They have the effect of distorting speeches in reporting them, of confusing issues, and of strengthening prejudice. When newspapers devote a. large part of their editorial space to denouncing one another's reports and claims, there is little encouragement to believe any of them. A free press is, then, not satisfactory in its most im- portant field, that of political reporting. However, from what examples we have of state-controlled newspapers and news agencies land even in some cases of all publica- tionsl, this system is little better. In totalitarian nations the news is so distorted as to appear to us bitterly amus- ing, while on our own continent government information agencies are not unjustifiably accused of having a definite slant . It is in the interest of any government whose support rests with the people, as is the case with all presently existing governments, to keep the support of the people, if necessary, by the presentation of entirely false news reports. Many governments are willing to violate any code of honest and decent behaviour if it will mean the continued blind support of the people. As long as human nature and governments remain as they are now this will be true. If we were to have a government such as that out- lined by Plato, and if the people were resigned to the un- questioned acceptance of such a rule, and further, if human nature had modified, as it would tend to do under TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 Plato's system, to produce rulers whose only concern was the welfare of the nation, then, and only then, could we safely have a state-controlled press. When people are willing to sacrifice their personal rights and liberty in exchange for security, the result is a totalitarian government. As long as the people treasure sufficiently their personal rights it is possible to maintain a democratic government. And, although a free press in- volves many dangers for such a system, a state-controlled press would make it virtually non-existent. If we wish to maintain any semblance of democracy we cannot afford to give up a free press. -J. P. Williamson, VI Sch. 1il FINAL MEETING Whose are these footsteps that I see These in the snow?

' THE RACE As the earth rocked under the pressure of countless hoarse cheers, he strode out into the floodlights. The moon's beams strove desperately in the unequal contest to halo his magnificent build. As Miss Depravia and Hank Tinatra desperately contested each other in the singing of the National Anthem and the 1998 bathing beauties swoon- ed in unison, J. Axle McGear, the successor of George Washervvoman, Al Molson, and Smo Bazooka, turned his kindly eye on the crowd. All over the nation, people were being informed that the greatest man of the century, the inventor of the balanced economy, the perpetual stink and the eternal corn- bustion engine, was making his last appearance. All Depravia realized that tonight, McGear and his new car would either smash all records or else be mired in the bog of ignominy. As the band played softly, the latest 'model with the new improvements fthe roc feather-lined cushions and the radioactive windshieldl was smoothly rolled to the start- ing line. A hush descended on the vast multitude as our hero climbed into his own masterpiece. Few men knew the story of the years of work behind the construction of that mighty machine. McGear in the daytime was the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD -1,1 popular famous hero, radiating joy and a palmolive odor. At night in the dinginess and poverty of his forsaken laboratory he would sorrowfully twirl his cyclatron and putter around with only a few pounds of radium. Under his super brain the mighty Nemesis had taken shape. Now tonight, in a few seconds, the Nemesis would race against time and the stopwatch. The mechanic cir- culated the crank in the back then leaped nimbly aside as a roaring flame brushed his necktie. As the second hand ticked around toward zero mark, McGear prepared to push the fateful button. Roar! He was off. His eyes narrowed to pinpoints, his mighty lungs gave vent to do or die pleasantries, the crowd seemed a flashing kaleidoscopic image and the pure air of the greatest 'country on earth fanned his serene brow and his high-strung emotions. The mighty roar of the thousand horsepower jets harmonized beautifully with the imagined strains of his favorite band. I -7 jr 4sv , ..., .,...

The knots and crosses of freedom gave his wheels wings as he sped to victory. 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Later as the retired hero sat happily in his modest mansion and contemplated his luxury yacht trip to Florida the following month, he blessed the land Where ordinary folk could be great.

This question is being asked by thousands of people all over the world today. In order to understand the ques- tion fully We must realize that the broad term movies is commonly used with three different interpretations. Most people, when they associate the word wrong with movies , are thinking of the moral grading of certain motion pictures. Still a good majority of others are think- ing of the actual photoplay and its merits from an artistic point of view. There is also a third line of thought which is the use of the word movies in reference to the social life in film communities and the often very lurid publicity connected With it. First of all let us look at the morals of modern motion pictures. This phase is connected directly with publicity which is a major part of the film industry. As is usually the case, murder and sex are the main box-office attractions for the general public. Therefore, in adver- tising its films, motion picture companies stress these factors in order to draw audiences, which is only natural for a concern whose business is directly with the public. This being the case, the content of the movie has to justify, partly at least, its advertisement in order to satisfy the movie-goer on whose attitude depends further business. We can see that this is one fault of the motion pictures to- day. as far as providing clean and Wholesome entertain- ment is concerned. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 As works of art, present day films, in my opinion, do not rate very high. There have been some very wonder- ful films made, which I think everyone should see eventu- ally, but most of these have already been shown and the ones being released by the studios nowadays are not the best. There is, of course, the occasional excellent produc- tion which emerges from the crop of many failures. This criticism is referring mostly to the acting and plots of present day movies. I do not think, however, that the public has seen any technically better movies than it is seeing today. Camera techniques, sets, sound, and pro- cessing are at their best, and, of course, technicolor is a wonderful asset in the production of better motion pictures. Now we come to the point which probably draws more criticism than either of the other two, that of the so-called loose morals of film society. Here again publicity en- ters the picture and outdoes itself, through the medium of special movie magazines, newspapers, and the radio, in de- picting film society as an eternal life of night clubs, parties, and exaggerated living. Even if the basic facts in most cases were true, the lurid embellishments create an arti- ficial atmosphere which seems to set the people concerned apart, as though they lived in another world. One could expand this more fully, but the point would be lost in a discussion of this type. In closing, however, it would be well to mention that film people are, after all, ordinary human beings. Just because more than the usual amount of publicity is focused upon them, it does not mean they are a separate race , for they have their faults just like anyone else. - -W. M.

Yet through the dark, the dankest gloom, fDeath's foul cloakl Rises slowly a growing glow. Then Eerie flickerings, Ominous fire, Chilling, not warming, the fearful soul. A great, fervent flaming, A brilliant blaze, Swiftly shifting, shaping. Now, dread sight,- Mirror'd Life, With piercing intensity, radiantly revealing Multitudinous undoings, so damning, decisive. Across the fiery screen they pass, One by one. Each demon-tempted deed, venom-tipped and sharp Stabs the sobbing Heart. Curs'd cruel agony! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 Torturous remorse! Unshrinking, non-abating, in its clutching, cutting force. O Magnificent Day of Reckoning! Then, like the Life it so vividly views, It ends. The terrible splendor dimsg And now the anxious, trembling Soul is left To wait while Fate decides. Quo Vadis'? -F. H. S. Cooper, VIA. THE CITY AWAKES Slowly the last star disappears in that luminous half- light which is the prelude to day. As if in greeting to the anticipated sun, the tawny, half-green, half-violet river sends up masses of yellow fog which engulf the intermin- able rows of dull red buildings. The plaintive Whistle of some river boat or the dull rumble of a cart are all the sounds of the still dead city. Gradually the vastness of the sky is tinged with pink, which deepens to red. For one brief instant the dome of St. Paul's responds to the glory of creation as do the mean, cracked chimneys by the river. Then it is day. The huge and blackened cyclops begins to stir. Nothing is natural here in this great metropolis, everything is transformed, artificially wrought by the hand of man. Tall chimneys smoke, so that even this brief sun- light is transformed into a perpetual pall. The Thames runs no longer blue and sparkling but rayless under grimy bridges. Man himself has been transformed in his end- less pursuit of wealth. A new England is seemingly taking the place of an older, simpler and more virtuous England. The crowds now milling about the streets bear testimony to this-cold and determined men, walking with 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD geometrical movements, without looking to either side, without distractions, Wholly given up to their business, each an emotionless robot. Rubbing shoulders with these cold determined men are the dirty, ragged, half-starved scum , the human reserve of society. These two un- natural extremes are created by a ruthless industrial society. On this October morning, 1889, England was to show the rest of the World that these two extremes could be reconciled peacefully, that the doctrines of Marx and Bentham's Laissez-faire were not the solution. For on this morning, the London dock-workers' strike was settled and the scum given a voice, however small, in the running of their country. This was only a beginning but significantly it was a peaceful one. The real wealth of England is the character of her people. This character has grown through the centuries in intimate contact with the soil. Tradition, the inevitability of the seasons, is a part of the country and so is an essential part of the English Character. As Disraeli wrote: Hitherto We have been preserved from the effects of the folly of modern legislation by the wisdom of our ancient manners. The national character may yet save the Em- pire. On the dusty roads from Mons to the Marne river, in the bloodstained agony of the Somme and Passchendaele, at Dunkirk and in the skies above the Channel the truth of his statement becomes clear. This tradition, the hold- ing sacred of the wisdom of the centuries, has manifested itself in the slow dogmatic English way of solving pro- blems. Marx's social revolution had no meaning to the English worker for it forgot that he had a soul that was kind, despite its rough exterior. Abroad in Russia and Germany his teaching led to untold bloodshed and persecu- tion. But let the English Character stand the test of time to show the world that there is a way which is Without bloodshed, that another clearer dawn may break forth on a happy world that has finished the process begun on that October morning in the fog of the Thames. -N.

Scowen, VA TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 LETTERS OR I VVISH I COULDN'T READ Mauna from heaven-ambrosia from the gods-mail at T.C.S. Letters may sting like the lash of a whip or soothe as the first draught of a cold drink. They may be the couriers of evil tidings or the bearers of frankincense and myrrh-Ah! Cash! Let us perch behind the ears of a series of schoolboys during lunch hour and from this rather earthy position delve into the literary efforts which they receive. The first youth we see is tensed with expectation as the letter approaches him and with the opening of the envelope his face becomes decidedly reminiscent of a maniac about to become homicidal. Dear Son: Your report has arrived . . . . . marks are not everything but . . . . . Mr. Ketchum says .... but of course your mother and I feel .... . . ten pages of this and the said youth is no longer depressed -his brain is a numb thing, his body is nerveless, he can- not eat his cabbage salad. Letters . . . Bah! I hate 'em! Now we come to a lad whose fingers twitch with anti- cipation as he unfolds a blue letter which exudes a some- what bilious perfume-incense to his adolescent nose. Food grows cold as the heart is warmed with a love that only a school boy far from home can fathom. Sometimes this blue epistle contains a pin-sometimes a T.C.S. pin. The spirit droops-the marks droop. . O woman, woman when to ill thy mind is bent all hell contains no fouler fiend. But this is not the only sort of casanova that receives letters from geruls. No! this small fellow on our right with the peachy complexion has just seen that oh so lovely, I never got out of fifth grade , writing half way down the Hall. Adoration is transformed into jet pro- pulsion and with the speed of Mr. Scott's strong right arm the letter is successfully wrested from the struggling house officer who is vainly trying to remove the lover's shoe from the general region of his tonsils. Peering around 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD nervously in case he has been perceived, this bundle of a budding Boyer leaps to the chandelier and conceals the crushed evidence in the pocket next to his heart. Nervous prostration, burning eyeballs, suicide, or Alcoholics Anony- mous usually claims this intriguing type. Alia! Let us regard yon chap whose vocal chords seem to form the main portion of his anatomy! He reads the first paragraph-immediately the milk is skimmed and the dishes washed by a long, loud, loose blast. Hey you guys, did ya hear what .... gosh she really goes for me. We are all acquainted with this obnoxious species of flannel-mouth and perhaps his table should share in the buying of a muzzle. Parents-Write thy children of tender love.

C.Ti , THE COACIPS IMPRESSIONS For the past two seasons we have participated in the Junior B Prep. School Group. As a result of this ex- perience, we know better what playing league hockey means. In the beginning we were inclined to feel that it was merely a method of arranging a schedule of games more efficiently among schools that had always engaged in a healthy and friendly rivalry. Since there was no com- mercial interest involved, except for the collection taken up by the management of Maple Leaf Gardens at the gate, we presumed that this particular group of schools would continue to set an example of good sportsmanship at a time when it has almost ceased to exist in the game. We did not feel that it was at all necessary to pay a referee 812.00 to ensure that players obeyed the rules, since we did not expect to see flagrant violations of the rules as soon as the referee's back was turned. We now know that paying referees twice or even three times their present fee will not cure the situation unless the schools themselves place good sportsmanship on a higher level than winning at any cost. Some very unilat- tering remarks were made by a prominent Toronto sports writer on the final game in the play-offs for our group. We sincerely hope that it will be the last occasion on which 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD accusations can be leveled at any team in the Prep School Group. It would be a pity to see the league disintegrate because the schools participating failed to find common agreement on the purpose of playing games. A I -A.:-LH. SCHOOL vs. LAKEFIELD At Port Hope, February 4. Won 6-2 Once again the sound of cheering and of sticks being banged against the boards could be heard issuing from the Port Hope arena! This time Bigside was engaged in down- ing Lakefield 6-2. It was a slow, close-checking, hard- fought match with T.C.S. dominating the play. Neither team seemed to be able to get organized and consequently most of the scoring resulted from solo efforts. A few moments after the beginning of the first period, the appearance of an Irish setter on the ice created a diversion and play eventually had to be stopped. Imme- diately following the face-off, Robarts took a pass from McPherson and slapped it in for Trinity's first goal. The score was evened when Ketchum broke through the de- fense to score despite the fact that Burrows, of Lakefield, was serving a. penalty for boarding. . Trinity continued their offensive in the second period, but they could not get their shots away. Finally, after a sustained attack by T.C.S., the puck came back to Bruce at the blue-line who fought into position and scored cleanly from directly in front of the net. In the third period, Fullerton, by breaking loose to score three times for T.C.S., sewed the game up. The first came from a scramble in front of the net. Then Burns scored for the Grove, Reeve assisting, to make the score 3-2. A few minutes later, Drummond was penalized fol- lowed later by Wood. In each case Lakefield began to put on the pressure. However, Wood, after his return to the ice, took the puck into his own zone, carried it up over TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 the Lakefield blue-line, and scored on a high shot. This was followed by Fullerton's second goal, a brilliant-solo rush. Then with Clark off for tripping, Fullerton scored again with Hall getting an assist. While Clark was still off, Reeve was given his second penalty and the Grove was left with four men against six, but T.C.S. failed to capitalize on their opportunity. The outstanding player on the ice was Fullerton for T.C.S. Best for Lakefield were Gibson, Ketchum and Reeve. T.C.S.-Goodbody, Wood i, Drummond, Bruce i, Hall, Fullerton, Moffitt, Thompson i, Kingman, Robarts, McPherson, McKinnon i, Stratford. Lakefield-March, Burrows, Gibson, Boyd, Drew, Ketchum, Clark, Reeve, Milner, McCulloch, Easson, Burns. SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. At Port Hope, February 6. Lost 4-2 The School suffered its second loss of the season, being defeated by U.T.S. 4-2. The play was even through- out and rather ragged due to slow ice. If it ha.d not been for the fine work of both goalies, the score would have been considerably higher. During the first period, play was very eveng U.T.S., however, capitalized on well-executed trailer plays to take a two goal lead. Fox scored the Iirst goal on a pass from Doll mid-way through the period, while Sinclair took a relay from Vernon to tally the second one from close in. The visitors pressed hard in the opening minutes of the second period and were rewarded when Doll scored on a quick break-away. The game then became close-check- ing with neither team being able to organize a dangerous attack. However, Fox gave U.T.S. a 4-O lead in the dying moments as he split the defense and beat Goodbody in the T.C.S. nets. The School showed renewed drive in the last period as they outplayed their opponents, netting two goals while 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD holding the visitors scoreless. Thompson scored the first one as he got a breakaway and beat Taylor at close range. Fullerton got the last goal for the School several minutes later when he took a pass from Thompson behind the U.T.S. net and slipped it in from the side of the goal. The game ended 4-2 for U.T.S. but with Trinity pressing hard. For the visitors Fox and Doll led the attack, while Taylor was very steady in the nets. Fullerton and Good- body were best for the School. U.T.S.--Taylor, McLean, Avery, Fox, Doll, Campbell, Vernon, Sinclair, Thompson, Mills, MacDouga1, Davidson, deVeber, Barker. T.C.S.-Goodbody, Hall, Wood i, Fullerton, Kingman, Thomp- son i, Bruce i, Drummond, Robarts, Moffitt, McPherson, McKinnon i, Stratford. SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Port Hope, February 11. Won 4-2 The School edged out Pickering College in a very close and exciting game here. It was fast hockey and the out- come was in doubt until the last few minutes. Early in the iirst period, Fullerton beat a lone defence- man and slipped the puck in unassisted putting the School ahead 1-0. Pickering came back quickly and O'Neil scored on a lone rush. Shortly after, Elliot assisted by Wilson and O'Neil got Pickering's other goal on a smart passing play around the net. Before the period ended, Fullerton scored again, this time on a rebound from a shot on goal by Thompson. In the second period, both teams played well, but T.C.S. pressed harder, and it was only Paul's excellent goal tending for Pickering which kept them from scoring. There were passing plays this period but neither team had the finesse needed to score. The final period showed more penalties, but neverthe- less good hockey. Both teams were so evenly matched that neither could score until two minutes to go, when with Pickering one man short, Fullerton scored on a pass TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 from Thompson. Elliot led Pickering's attack, and only the excellent net-minding of Goodbody stopped them from tying the score up. Then with Trinity shorthanded, Thomp- son and Fullerton teamed up again, with Fullerton getting his final goal fifteen seconds before the bell, making the score 4-2 in favor of Trinity. Fullerton, getting all four goals, was outstanding for T.C.S., ably assisted by Thompson and Goodbody. Elliot was the spearhead of Pickering's attack, while Paul was outstanding in the nets. T.C.S.-Goodbody, Hall, Wood i, Bruce i, Drummond, Fullerton, Thompson i, Kingman, Moffitt, McKinnon i, McPherson, Stratford. Pickering-Paul, Rogers, Shier, Farrell, O'Neil, Elliot, Jack Murphy, Jim Murphy, Widdrington, Cousins, Wylie. Hutchison, Wilson. SCHOOL VS. FOREST HILL SCHOOL At Port Hope, February 14. Lost 2-0 In one of the best games of the year, the School was defeated by Forest Hill. The game was close and as fast as the soft ice would allow. The outcome was in doubt from the first to the last, highlighted by the good work of Leuty and Goodbody, the goalies. Despite the absence of two of our first line Trinity appeared to have a decided edge on the attack through good passing, but could not score on Leuty. The game, in which there were few penalties, opened at a speedy clip, both teams making determined rushes. The few shots on goal were successfully spoiled by both goalies. Early in the second frame Stanley of Forest Hill took the puck deep in his own end and raced unassisted to the goal mouth where he beat Goodbody for the first score. Trinity, led by Fullerton, tried hard to make up for the goal and made things hot for Leuty. At the five minute mark of the third period, in a scramble in front of the net, MacVitie pushed one in to 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD make the score 2-0 for the visitors. For the remainder of the game the School dominated the play with good rushes but failed to score. A Leuty was exceptionally good for Forest Hill, and Stanley always played well. Fullerton was Trinity's stand- out, ably assisted by Moffitt and Wood. Goodbody did a great job in goal. Forest Hill-Leuty, Stanley. Rothbart, Sholdice, Morrassutti, Delzotto, Ma.cVitie, Ariigo, Howard, Collins, Marshall. T.C.S.K-Goodbody, Wood i, Hall, Fullerton, Thompson i, King- man, McKinnon i, McPherson, Moffitt, Bruce i, Drummond, Strat- ford. -llT.li. . SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto, February 18. Lost 5-2 U.C.C.'s unbeaten hockey team defeated the School 5-2 in a rough, hard-fought tussle at Maple Leaf Gardens. The game opened with a penalty to Cork of U.C.C. However, the College held well, not permitting a single shot on goal. Throughout the whole period, U.C.C. bottled up the School attack, and kept the puck in the T.C.S. end most of the time. The School had only one clean shot on goal while U.C.C. had numerous scoring chancesg but some good defensive play by Goodbody in the nets kept the high- scoring U.C.C. team to a single goal which came with less than a minute to play on a deflected shot by Cork. The School came back very strongly in the second period but the weak play in the U.C.C. end and good U.C.C. goal-clearing hampered the T.C.S. attack. The College's fast breaks were working Well, but again they were thwart- ed from scoring time and again by good defensive check- ing and fine goal-keeping. However, the period ended with U.C.C. all around the T.C.S. net and finally Hadden scored on a nice passing play from O'Sullivan to leave U.C.C. in the lead 2-0 as the period ended. The final period opened with Ball scoring for U.C.C. on a nice break-away. However, Cork received his second TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 penalty soon after and the School finally scored on a goal by Fullerton from a face-off in the U.C.C. end. Three minutes later, Fullerton scored again on a pass from Thompson. However, the U.C.C. team showed their superior strength and polish as they scored two quick goals by Hewitt and O'Sullivan to sew the game up with the score 5-2. The final whistle blew with U.C.C. still pressing. The outstanding defensive play of Cork, and the aggressiveness and speed of O'Su1livan, paved the way for the U.C.C. triumph. For the School, the stellar play of Goodbody in goal made him the outstanding figure on the ice, and good back-checking kept the score down. T.C.S.-Goodbody, Hall, Wood i, Fullerton, Thompson i, King- man, Moffitt, McPherson, McKinnon i, Bruce i, Drummond, Robarts, Harvie, Stratford. U.C.C.-Orr, Cork, Bazos, Hewitt, Kent. Murphy, Frome, Hadden, Addison, O'Su11ivan, Ball, Hargraft. .l. SCHOOL vs. OLD BOYS At Port Hope, February 21. Won 13-7 The First Hockey team defeated the Old Boys in a game which began as a disorganized and loose contest but improved somewhat in the second and third periods. A Trinity opened with four straight goals by Fullerton, Thompson and Kingman, who scored twice. The Old Boys followed with three by Huycke, Lawson and Laing. The second period was typified by fast individual rushes, par- ticularly by Robarts and Laing, with the School's more organized play netting goals by Kingman, McKinnon and McPherson, who scored two. Thus the score stood 8-3 at the end of the period. The third period saw Parker, Lawson, Gilbert and Huycke score for the Old Boys, while Drummond, King- man, McKinnon, Fullerton and Moffit brought the score to 13-7. Best for the Old Boys were Huycke and Laing, whose SS TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD rushes were a pleasure to see, with some sensational l?J work in the nets by Gilbert. Kingman with four goals, and Fullerton were outstanding for the School, and Arklay per- formed very Well as goalie for the Old Boys in the second period, and for the School in the last period. A unique feature of this game was the Cousin line used by the Old Boys composed of first cousins Robarts, Laing and Gilbert. Five first cousins were often on the ice at the same time-the three just mentioned and Bruce and Dick Robarts for the School. T.C.S.--Fullerton, Thompson i, Kingman, Bruce i, Hall, Strat- ford, Moffitt. McKinnon i, McPherson, Drummond, Robarts. Old Boys-Huycke, Lawson, Robarts, Decker, Parker, Gilbert, Arklay lT.C.S.m, Stewart, Leng, Cawley, Laing, Britton. SCHOOL vs. U.T.S. A At Varsity Arena., Toronto, February 25. Lost 4-1 On February 25, the final game for play-off positions was played between U.T.S. and the School at Varsity Arena on fairly good ice. The play in the first period was very even with U.T.S. having more chances. Five minutes before the end of the period, DeVeber tallied for U.T.S., assisted by Fox and Avery. After some very stiff play by both teams, Moffitt retaliated for T.C.S. assisted by Mc- Pherson. Seconds later, Smith received a penalty but U.T.S. held on and the score remained 1-1 at the end of the period. Both teams Went into the second period with lots of fight. Vernon of U.T.S. received a penalty for hooking but T.C.S. failed to score. Near the middle of the period, McDougall scored from Arrowsmith after a muddle by the goal, and the score remained 2-1 for U.T.S. at the close of the period. The last period was dominated by a hard-hitting U.T.S. team. McDougall scored for U.T.S. unassisted in the first minute of play, and once again after many chances, Arrow- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 smith scored from Fox, after a battle in front of the net, A few minutes later, Smith received a penalty for tripping but U.T.S. held tight. After a great muddle when T.C.SQ seemed to have ten men on the ice, McPherson received a penalty as the others managed to slip over the boards into the box unnoticed by the bewildered referee. The game ended a few minutes later with both teams fighting hard, leaving the final score 4-1 for U.T.S. Goodbody was outstanding for T.C.S.g while Fox, Sinclair, McDougall and Arrowsmith were best for U.T.S. T.C.S.-Bruce i, Fullerton, Goodbody, Kingman, Moffitt, Hall. McPherson, VVood i, Drummond, Thompson i, Robarts, McKinnon i. U.T.S.-Fox, Sinclair, Taylor, Avery, McLean, Arrowsmith, McDougall, Mills, Davidson, Vernon. DeVeber, Campbell, Smith, Barker. SCHOOL vs. B.C.S. At the Forum, Montreal, February 27. Lost 7-3 After the Montreal Canadiens had finished one of their typically uninspiring practices, the School took to the ice against Bishop's College School. The team lost its second game in three days, as B.C.S. took advantage of breakaways, while the School, despite constant pressure, failed to finish off their power plays. When the game had been underway for just one minute, Rider gave B.C.S. a one goal lead. Before the tive minute mark, Thompson retaliated with an unassisted goal for the School, but half way through the period, Gray gave Bishop's a 2-1 lead when he scored on a quick pass from McMaster. The Lennoxville team started off strongly in the second period when Rider got two quick goals just nine seconds apart. The first was the result of a breakaway while the second was on a pass from Glassford. Kingman then put Trinity within striking distance of their opponents when he scored on a pass from Fullerton and Thompson but our peppering of the B.C.S. goal was to no availg Price GQ , TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD stopped everything. Thus the period ended with the score 4-2 in favour of B.C.S. With less than a minute played in the hnal session, Stearns gave Bishop's another goal on a rink-length rush. Little scored the final goal for the School on a nice pass from McPherson. For the next ten minutes of play, Trinity pressed hard but failed to beat Price who performed bril- liantly in the Lennoxville nets. In the last minutes of play, Steains and Glassford each scored unassisted goals for the winners. The final score was B.C.S. 7, T.C.S. 3. Price played a stand-out game for the victors while Rider and Gray were the pick of the forwards. Fullerton played his usual steady game for the School. B.C.S.---Gray, Rider, Hart, Glassford, Stearns, Ross, Price, Bignell, McMaster, McGee, Allmond, Lawrence. T.C.S.--Bruce i, Goodbody, Wood i, Hall, Fu11erton,,Thompson i, Kingman, Drummond, Moffitt, Little, McPherson, Robarts, McKin- non i, Stratford. SCHOOL vs. L.C.C. At the Forum, Montreal, February 28. Tied 4-4 In a very close and thrill-packed game, T.C.S. managed to draw with L.C.C., before a large crowd at the Forum in Montreal. Before two minutes of play had passed, Robertson assisted by Watson, scored for Lower Canada. The play was very fast and Laurence, Fenson and Parkes combined for a beautiful goal for L.C.C. with Laurence scoring. The School settled down and Moffitt, ably assisted by McPher- son and Thompson, scored at the three-quarter mark. The score remained the same and the period ended 2-1 for Lower Canada. The second period opened with play still very fast and continually see-sawing back and forth. Very early in the period, Robertson and Watson teamed up again for L.C.C.. Robertson putting the puck past Goodbody on a very hard shot, but T.C.S. came back and McPherson scored assisted TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 by Drummond. Henry assisted Fenson for Lower Canada's final goal. The final period saw the play slow down and become rougher. Towards the end of the period, L.C.C. had two players off and T.C.S. had one off. With less than three minutes to go, Thompson passed to Fullerton who scored after a beautiful rush. With one minute to go, Thompson and Fullerton again teamed up for another excellent goal. on which Thompson scored, making the score 4-4. The play remained very even for the last minute with neither team breaking the tie. Henry and McKenzie were excellent for L.C.C. while the School's passing, sparked by Fullerton and Moffitt. stood out for T.C.S. T.C.S.-Goodbody, Bruce i, Drummond, Hall, Wood i, Fullerton Thompson i, Little, McPherson, Moffitt, Kingman, Robarts, Strat- ford, McKinnon i. L.C.C.-Fenson, Cary, Henry, Laurence, McGowan. Mooney, Parkes, Robertson, McKenzie, Watson. SCHOOL vs. RIDLEY At Toronto, March 8. Lost 10-5 In an exhibition game played at the Maple Leaf Gar- dens, T.C.S. was defeated by their rivals from B.R.C. 10-5 in what proved to be a wide-open game. At the beginning of the game, play was fairly even. At times each team would press harder for a while but still the game remained scoreless. Halfway through the first period, Ridley got their first goal, Casselman scoring from Osler and Bourne. Two minutes later at 12.50 Ridley scored again, this time Osler assisted by Bradshaw. Just before the end of the period T.C.S. put on considerable pressure and very nearly scored, but Rankin in the Ridley goal managed to stave off almost certain tries. The second period started off pretty much the same as the first until halfway through. Rankin made some 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD marvellous saves again drawing great applause from the spectators. At 12.00, Osler scored his second goal assisted by Casselman on a very nice rebound. Then T.C.S. finally came through and Fullerton scored their first goal at 13.28, assisted by Austin and Little on the play. In the third period, eleven goals were scored by both teams as the play opened up. Ridley scored three goals, two by Bourne and one by Casselman within three minutes to increase their lead to 6-1. At 5.17, T.C.S. got its second goal with McPherson scoring, assisted by Moffitt. Bourne scored his third goal from Casselman and Osler, followed shortly by goals from Court and Kindy. There was no scoring for about three minutes but eventually Moffitt scored a very neat unassisted goal at 11.40. This seemed to spur the T.C.S. lads on, for two more goals were scored in quick succession, both by Thompson, the first assisted by McPherson and the second unassisted. In the last two minutes of play, B.R.C. got two more goals by Casselman at 18.33, and Osler at 19.43. The game was well played in the first two periods and seemed to show only a slight edge by Ridley, but the scor- ing in the third period made it all quite bewildering.

Lost 4-1 In the last game of the season, T.C.S. was defeated by Lakefield Firsts by a score of 4-1 at the Lakefield Arena. T.C.S. lacked their usual enthusiasm and conse- quently their combination was not up to par. At the end of the first period, the score was 1-1, Milner scoring for Lakefield and Fullerton scoring the only T.C.S. goal on a penalty shot. In the second period, no goals were scored, but in the third period, Lakefield put in three quick goals, , , 3 '2.

The game was rough and tough but surprisingly clean for a house match. Brent' had to fight all the way for the draw and never had the lead. Bethune drew first blood on a screen shot by Kingman, but Brent fought right back and Thompson i banged home a tally to tie the game. The teams then began to play the man and Bethune led 2-1 at the end of the first period on a marker by Austin. The second period was typified by wild rushes from both ends. All players forgot that they were on teams and stick-handled all over the ice, refusing to pass. This proved futile and the teams ended the second period with no goals scored. The coaches of the teams must have given the players some sound advice for both teams turned in an excellent effort in the third period. Hall scored for Bethune on a long screen shot. It looked as if Bethune had the game parcelled and sealed but Brent wasn't listening to this nonsense. They fought back tooth and nail, and McKinnon scored on a scramble to put Brent into the game. Then Fullerton rushed the length of the ice and fired a blister- ing shot at Goodbody who turned it aside only to have the rebound banged home by Little, who had trailed Fullerton on the play. In the dying minutes of the game, Brent tried in vain to score though they held Bethune to their 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD own end and had them completely bewildered. Final score: Bethune 3, Brent 3. Beuume-Bruce 1, Goodbody, Hall, McPherson, Kingman, Aus- tin, Robarts, Maier. Brent--Fullerton, Wilson, Drummond, Deverall, Little, Thomp- son i.

Inethe second period both teams checked each other into the ice and no goals were scored. Boulden got his second goal of the night early in the third period, and Hutton notched his third.

Early in the second period, the School lost the services of Rogers ii who suffered a broken nose. Led by McGill and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 Chitty, the reshuffled lines scored twice before Stephenson evened it up with a goal ten seconds before the end of the period. Newcastle then put on a determined drive. Goals by Richardson, Walton and Gibson gave them a 5-2 lead. The School was further disrupted by the loss of Maier. who also suffered a nose injury. Harvie and Stephenson then tallied again to leave the final score Newcastle 6. T.C.S. 3. For Newcastle, Brunt was spectacular in the nets and Stephenson was best of the forwards. For the School. Maier and Harvie starred while Chitty's attack and back- checking stood out. JUVENILES vs. U.C.C. SECONDS At Port Hope, February 6. Lost 4-3 The Juveniles finished a rather unfortunate season in a well-played even game, probably their best all year. Trinity's offence Worked effectively against the strong Upper Canada squad and the School went ahead on goals by Harris i and Maier. U.C.C. retaliated with a goal to leave the score 2-1 at the end of the first frame. Trinity continued to dominate the play throughout the second period, both offensively and defensively, but only main- tained a 3-2 lead on Harris' goal. The third period saw U.C.C. catch up and take the lead to end the game 4-3. although Trinity's defence led by Deverall and Scowen was playing very well. Harris played well also. Kennedy on defence for Upper Canada stood out for the winners. .1 JUVENILES vs. NEWCASTLE At Orono, February 12. Lost 11-4 A comparatively weak T.C.S. team bowed out by the score of 11-4 at the hands of the Newcastle team. New- castle shot two quick goalsg Mercer and Smith scoring at three and five minutes. T.C.S. then slapped in one scored by Bascom, assisted by McGill. Newcastle scored shortly 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD after, followed by a T.C.S. counter by Chitty. The final goal of the first period was scored by Creamer at nineteen minutes from Smith. The second period counters were both for Newcastle, being scored by Creamer and Gibson. Thus the score at the end of the second period was New- castle 6, T.C.S. 2. Five quick goals were scored by New- castle at the beginning of the third, but T.C.S., rallying to close the gap, sank two goals, McGill and Maier getting the credit. The final score stood at Newcastle 11, T.C.S. 4. Bascoin and I-larvie played well for the School while Creamer and Richardson played best for Newcastle. - JUVENILES VS. LAKEFIELD At Lakefiel-d, Blanch 3: Lost 10-1 On March 3, the Juveniles played the Lakefield Firsts at Lakefield. T.C.S. was widely outplayed by their bigger and faster skating opponents. One might say that the score indicated the play! Taking an early lead, Lakefield was never seriously threatened. Ketchum, scoring six goals, led the scoring parade for the victors, while Maier saved the School from being shut out with a last minute goal. Middleside Hockey MIDDLESIDE VS. S.A.C. SECONDS At S.A.C., February 6. Tied 5-5 On Wednesday, February 6, Middleside hockey held S.A.C. Seconds to a tie.

However, in the third period the Saints rallied quickly and managed to score four goals, thus tying it up. For T.C.S. Harris i and Potter stood out, for St. Andrew's Mannan and Laing were the bright lights. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDDLESIDE vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, February ll. Lost 9-5 For the first two periods the play was all in favour of U.C.C. as they led 4-0. at the end of the first. and 8-0. at the end of the second.

Trinity displayed some fine hockey in the first two periods and led by a score of 4-2 at the end of the second frame. However, in the third period, play be- came ragged and U.C.C. managed to beat Woods iive times while the School was held scoreless. The goal-getters for U.C.C. were Dalglish, Logie, and Hampstead with one each while Stuart and Walrith each netted two. Potter. Van Straubenzee and Harris with two goals were the scorers for T.C.S. 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ANNUAL HOUSE GAME Bethune 3, Brent 2 The annual Middleside House Hockey game was won this year by Bethune 3-2. The game was slow and very ragged throughout due to very soft ice. Bethune held a very decided edge in the first period and took a two goal lead on goals by Potter and Bronfman. The second period opened with McKinnon ii scoring for Brent to make the score 2-1 for Bethune. The remainder of the period was even with both teams coming close to adding to their totals. The third period proved to be even slower than the two previous periods as the ice got even softer, making passing extremely difficult. Morgan scored for Bethune and it looked as though Bethune was pretty safe. How- ever, Brent retaliated with a goal by Thompson to make the score 3-2, still in favor of Bethune. The game ended without any further scoring with Bethune House the vic- tors in a close, hard-fought game. Maier and Morgan were the standouts for Bethune while Drynan and Chitty played well for Brent.

Three Trinity counters by MacGregor, Mc- Kinnon and Lick, followed in the opening minutes of the second period. Orono scored only once during this period, this being done by West unassisted. T.C.S. opened in the beginning of the third with McKinnon scoring, but to- wards the end of this period Orono strengthened con- siderably. This resulted in two goals, the first by Hohi- benko and the second by Gilmour. Lick, McKinnon and Church played well for Trinity, helped out by Arklay who played a splendid game in nets. Gilmour and West played best for Orono. BLIDGETS vs. STIRLING 1PlayoffJ At Port Hope, February 26.

Stirling, however, came back as McCoy and Wan- namaker scored on long shots to win the game 6-4. Lick and Arklay played well for the School and Mason was out- standing for the victors. 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDGETS vs. STIRLING 1PlayoffsD At Stirling, February 19. Lost 10-1 In their final game, the T.C.S. Midgets were badly beaten by a powerful Stirling team. Due to bad ice con- ditions, it was a very slow game. In the first period, there were many solo rushes which made it quite exciting, the play being very even with Stirling getting the only goal. In the second period, Stirling completely dominated the play and managed to get six goals. Mason scored three, Wannanmaker two and McCory one. Mason con- tinually upset the School by getting passes at the centre- ice and then making rushes, on three of which he scored. In the final period, Mason scored on a beautiful rush from his own blue line, followed by Wannanmaker with another for Stirling. Church then scored the School's only goal. Just before the game ended, McCory put the puck in again for Stirling. Thus the Midgets lost the total goals to count series 16-5. The line of Mason, McCory and Wannamaker was excellent for Stirling.

The game was played on the upper rink Saturday morning directly after classes. It was a thrilling 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD contest from start to Iinish, but the Rabbits had met their Masters. Against the methods of the winners, the Rabbits had little chance. Most of the Masters' goals came as the result of the unconventional play of Mr. Armstrong, who continually waited at the red line for the puck. Occasionally the disc managed to penetrate the Rabbit defense and away he Went. The best and the cleanest C'?J player on the ice was Mr. Hodgetts. He was closely followed, in the latter respect, by Mr. Dale, who inconvenienced a certain Rabbit player by knocking off his glasses. At one point, the score stood at 7-0, but eventually the rabbit's foot began to tell, and they managed to score twice. Thus the Masters over- came by a slight margin a fighting team of valiant Rabbits. T.C.S. RABBIT ALL-STARS vs. THE GROVE ALL-STABS' At Port Hope, February 14. Won 5-3 R In an exciting game before a crowd of three or four people Knot counting the coach and his Wifel, the School's All-Stars defeated the Grove All-Stars by the score of 5-3. The game was not overly fast as the number of penalties indicates. There were none at all! The School's scorers were Black, Spencer, Harvey, Bongard and Wilding. Bon- gard and Panet were the best for T.C.S. while there were no individual stars for the Grove. Rabbit All-Stars-Panet, Bongard, Harvey, Palmer, Spencer, Lewis, Lawson i, Smith i.

Black, Bon- gard, Lawson i, and Strathy got the goals for T.C.S. while the scorers for Lakefield are known only to Lakefield.

Lost 39-31 In their return match with P.C.V.I., Bigside was de- feated 39-31 in a slow but good game. Action was loose at times and only the stellar defensive work of-Gaunt kept the score down. The game started slowly but soon speeded up with the Peterborough team showing superior ball-handling as the play surged back and forth. At quarter time, the score was 8-8, although P.C.V.I. held an edge in the play. The second frame featured many shots by the School, few of which were sunk. Action slowed down toward the close of the quarter which ended with Peterborough leading by a score of 18-16. Richardson for P.C.V.I. and Gaunt for T.C.S. were the outstanding performers in the third quarter as the game livened, with all the players showing renewed drive. How- ever, Peterborough's shooting proved more accurate and the score stood at 29-21 at the three-quarter mark. In the last quarter each team scored ten points. Again Gaunt was the leading factor in the Trinity attack while Richard- son checked well for Peterborough. Thus the game ended with the score 39-31 in favor of Peterborough. Gaunt was easily the outstanding player of the day due to his dynamic checks on the defense and his eleven points which made him the high-scorer. Williams and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 75 Wismer also played well in scoring eight points apiece. Richardson was the spark of the P.C.V.I. attack while McKee was their high-scorer with ten points.

Taking a 10-O lead in the first two minutes, the School was never seriously threatened afterwards. For the Hrst time, the second-line for the Red and Black was played equally with the nrst five. In the first half, the School maintained its superiority to lead 20-5 at half time. Wismer, with ten points, led the Trinity sharpshooters. In the second half, U.T.S. played much better but still did no-t get hot , and T.C.S. coasted to a 38-14 victory.

Won 61-37 In their sixth league game of the season, the first team in a sparkling display came through with a decisive victory over Pickering by a score of 61-37. At the start of the game, our first line put on a big drive, but although we made countless shots We netted only six points. Then Rogers came up with some nice 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD pivot shots and we were well in the lead by the end of the first quarter with the score of 11-4. In the second quar- ter after a few inaccurate shots, Wismer finally sank one followed by a beautiful shot by Williams, and Gaunt then came up with a well placed basket. At this point, the team was really playing well, the rebounds were being snagged more efficiently then usual, and for a While, Pickering fell behind as the School surged on to lead 31-15. In the second half, T.C.S. got off to a slow start. The Pickering boys carried the play and managed to score a few times. However, due to some weak Pickering defensive play, Wismer and Rogers put in some rebounds. Daboll of Pickering made a lovely long-shot later on, but in general T.C.S. had a slight edge over their competitors. During the fourth quarter Pickering used a man for man de- fence, slowing down the T.C.S. attack considerably. They forced us down in our end for quite a While gaining points steadily, until Rogers, Williams and Wismer made three quick baskets. In the last few minutes of the play, the game seemed to open up. Pickering scored three times, with Bascom finding the basket to end the scoring. In general the T.C.S. attack was fast and hard-driving while Pickering's defence was a little weak. Umphrey and Arnold played best for Pickering While for T.C.S. everyone seemed to do very well in their best game to date. T.C.S.-'Gaunt 3, Williams 15, Wismer 18, Rogers 22, Sweny, Vmnon 1.

WVon 57-17 In a return game with U.T.S. in Toronto, Trinity came back after a slow start to completely overwhelm U.T.S. Despite the loss of Rogers in the key centre position, Trinity's offense was very good, as good as the defense. The opening minutes of the game saw the School in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 considerable difficulty in scoring. It was a long time be- fore Trinity could put one through the hoop, and the quar- ter ended 7-5 in favor of the home squad. Trinity caught fire in the second quarter, however. Quickly adjusting themselves to the surroundings, Sweny, Williams and Gaunt sank baskets from all angles to give Trinity an im- posing 31-9 lead at half-time as the School outscored U.T.S. 26-2 in this quarter. Trinity kept the heat on in the last half with Williams sparking the Trinity attack. The U.T.S. offence at this point appeared very shaky. The game was unusual for its great number of personal fouls. The School second-team played some of the last half and did very well. Williams with twenty-five points and Sweny with twelve. all on long shots, and Gaunt, who improvised in the centre position, were Trinity's standouts.

Won 31-25 After a slow start, the first basketball team rolled to a 31-25 victory over U.C.C., thus tying S.A.C. for top place in the Prep. School league. The game started at a very slow pace, due to the U.C.C. team who froze the ball and only shot when they had worked it right in. This style kept the School from scoring to any extent, leaving U.C.C. in the lead 7-4 at the end of the first quarter. Then the School, led by Wismer's seven points, speeded up the play. But they blew many scoring chances under the basket, and the College. sparked by Thompson, managed to keep ahead, leading 14-11 at the end of the half. 78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The second half started off slowly again, but soon the School came to life, outscoring and outplaying their opponents. Then headed by Gaunt, Rogers and Wismer, they surged forward easily in the final minutes to nip U.C.C. 31-25. Thompson was best for U.C.C., while brilliant play of Gaunt, and Wismer's fourteen points were best for the School.

SCHOOL vs. VVESTMOUNT HIGH SCHOOL At Montreal, February 27. Won 42-41 Playing before a packed gymnasium, Bigside squeezed out a 42-41 victory over the Westmount seniors. The play throughout most of the game was close and rough, with the outcome in doubt until the final whistle. The first quarter was fast and both teams were check- ing closely. It ended with the score 7-5 in favour of West- mount, with Trinity scoring all their points on foul shots. The game opened up considerably in the second quarter with the Purple and White squad, led by McLeod and Wray, rolling up a 23-13 lead by half-time, as Trinity seemed to be troubled by Westmount's man-to-man de- fence. But T.C.S. started to click in the third stanza and the sharpshooting of Wismer and Gaunt was instrumental in cutting Westmount's lead to 35-31. The final period was marked by the appearance on the gym. floor of an egg, the Westmount cheer-leaders, and numerous double-fouls. Trinity caught up to their opponents and forged four points ahead. But Westmount would not give up and fought back to within one point of Bigside. The final whistle blew with Trinity ahead 42-41. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79 Gaunt and Wismer with twelve and ten respectively. were Trinity's high-scorers, and McLeod with twelve and Wray with ten points were Westmount's best. A feature of the game was the consistent sinking of foul shots by Trinity. T.C.S.-Gaunt, Rogers, Sweny, XYisn1er, Williams, Bascom, Watts, Snowdon. XV.H.S.-McLeod, Skinner, Wray, Gunderson, Foster, Hanna- ford. SCHOOL vs. MONTREAL HIGH At Montreal, February 28. Lost 48-22 Bigside played their second exhibition game in two days in Montreal against a strong Montreal High team and were defeated 48-22. The fast Montreal team exhibited good ball-handling and fully deserved their rather one- sided win as the School appeared sluggish and tired. T.C.S. started strongly in the first quarter when Rogers scored on a pretty passing play, but from then on. Montreal High had the game well under control. Montreal began to show their superiority in the latter part of the first quarter and built up a 14-6 lead by the end of the quarter. Montreal completely carried the play in the second period, and led by Leahan, they ran up a 30-14 lead by half-time. The third quarter proved to be much closer and as a result the scoring was kept down. However, Montreal still held a slight advantage and led 35-16. Montreal continued their dazzling pace in the last quarter and their more accurate shooting and their ability to get rebounds showed up. As a result, they again outscored the School and the game ended with the final score of 48-22 in favour of Montreal High. ' For the winners, the whole team played extremely well, but Leahan, who scored seventeen points, was out- standing. Although no one really stood out for the School. Rogers was top scorer with nine points. 80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T.C.S.-Gaunt 4, Rogers 9, Sweny, Wismer 2, VVilliams 3. Bas- com. Wfatts 3, Snowdon 1.

Won 36-31 T.C.S. won the first of its two home and home total points series play-off games with Saint Andrew's by a score of 36-31. It was a close-checking, rugged game in which a total of thirty-four fouls were given out. In the first quarter, play was rather rough and ragged with the Saints holding a slight edge. They continued to hold this edge in the second quarter until ten seconds be- fore the end of the half when their star centre, Edmonds, was sent off with five fouls. The loss of Edmonds was a great blow to the Saint Andrew's squad who were already handicapped by the absence of Simpson, their captain, out with a broken thumb. Play continued much as in the first quarter and at the end of the half, the score was 16-14 for S.A.C. The effect of Edmond's banishment was evident from the outset of the second half. Led by Wismer and Gaunt, T.C.S. surged into a ten point lead. There was no sign of a let-up until Gaunt was ordered off with five fouls. Play slowed down at this point and slowly Saint Andrew's began to creep up, despite the fact that Scellen was also banished with five fouls. However, Trinity managed to hold until the end of the game. Final score: T.C.S. 36, S.A.C. 31. Until he was sent off, Edmonds was the outstanding player on the floor, checking brilliantly and sinking spec- tacular shots. After he left, Paterson led the Saints' attack. Wismer and Gaunt were Trinity's best. Wismer with thirteen points, was high scorer for the game, and Gaunt played a fine all-round game until he was forced to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 81 leave the floor. Sweny also played very well for the School. T.C.S.----Gaunt 6, Rogers 3, Wismer 13, Williams 4, Sweny 6. Base-om 2, Watts 2, Vernon, Spencer, Emery.

Won 32-30 On March 10, the first basketball team made T.C.S. history by winning the Prep School League title. In a close. hard-fought game, the School edged out the Saints 32-30. Once again, the Saints were without their star centre, Edmonds, forced to the side-lines with a sprained ankle early in the game. - Going into the game with a five point margin, Trinity opened the scoring with three quick baskets. Players on both teams were rather tense and missed several easy shots. Saint Andrew's fought back to make the score 8-5 for T.C.S. at quarter-time. In the second quarter both teams settled down to play an improved brand of basket- ball. S.A.C. sank a foul shot to narrow Trinity's lead but the School pulled away again with two quick baskets. Play speeded up with T.C.S. having an edge in the play and the half-time score was 18-10 for T.C.S. The second half opened with both teams in top gear. Saint Andrew's pressed hard and due to accurate shooting. cut Trinity's lead to two points. Trinity's offense, how- ever, began to click and T.C.S. were leading 26-17 at three- quarter time. Then the game slowed down to almost a walk as Trinity protected their lead. The Saints, having nothing to lose, opened up the game. This strategy very nearly paid off as they pulled up to within two points of T.C.S., 30-28. Ragging the ball in their opponents' end. T.C.S. played for time. Finally, after this had pulled the S.A.C. defense out of position, Wismer scored a neat bas- 82 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ket which greatly pleased the Trinity supporters. The Saints fought back, shooting many shots at the Trinity basket, one of which went in to make the score 32-30. Seconds later, the whistle blew to end the game. On the series, Trinity was ahead 68-61, thus winning the Prep School Championship. Gaunt and Sweny played well on the defence for Trinity, While on the offence all the forwards worked well together. Paterson with nine points led the S.A.C. attack. The whole Saint Andrew's squad played well as a unit but appeared to be hampered through the loss of Edmonds and Simpson.

W'on 35-11 The School completely crushed Port Hope Juniors 35-11, building up a formidable lead in the first half and coasting to an easy victory in the latter. The School quintet rode rough-shod over P.H.H.S. in the first quarter, Greenwood setting the pace to a 20-2 lead at the half-way mark. Port Hope was most un- organized and showed very little team-play. In the second half, the High School team rallied and managed to get some plays going. Trinity slackened its pace a little and coasted till the end of the game. Beebe showed good playing for Port Hope, while Greenwood was best for the School. Pierce and Lawson also shot well for T.C.S. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 83 JUNIORS vs. U.T.S. At Port Hope, February 6. Lost 43-33 The Juniors met a powerful and highly rated U.T.S. Junior team and held them to a 43-33 win in a fast and well-played contest. The game began at a fast clip. U.T.S. used a good offense under the Trinity basket to pile up a 22-14 lead at half time. Fawcett was exceptionally good, netting twelve points. In the second half, the Trinity zone tightened up and cut down the U.T.S. scoring under the basket. Trinity's offensive also worked very well and narrowed the lead several times, but U.T.S. led by Ponton, who scored numerous long-shots, managed to stay ahead as the game ended 43-33 in favor of the visitors. Fawcett's and Ponton's shooting stood out for U.T.S. while Hoffman and Greenwood were best for T.C.S. T.C.S.-Greenwood, Pierce. Howard, Lawson i, Cleland, Rawlin- son, Baker, Hoffman, Croll, Bate, Wood ii. JUNIORS vs. PICKERING At Port Hope, February 11.

However, the U.T.S. attack then got underway, to take an 18-12 lead at the half. The last half of the game was corn- pletely dominated by U.T.S. which stretched its lead to 45-21 at the final whistle. For U.T.S., Fawcett was best with twenty-four points, Greenwood led the School with nine points. JUNIORS vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, February 25.

Ridley won the Frank Gibson Memorial Cup. taking nine out of ten matches. T.C.S. placed second. winning six, while Upper Canada was unable to win a match. Each Ridley-T.C.S. match went to t.he limit of five games, showing the two teams to be very evenly matched. The best match of the day was between Tessier and Bourne, the Ridley captain. Tessier showed more skilful shots but Bourne's wonderful recoveries of difficult shots and his steadiness led him to win. Later in the after- noon Frank Gibson presented the cup to Bourne. Short speeches were made by Dr. Griffiths, Frank Gibson, Argue Martin and Mr. Lewis. The speakers were impressed by the skills of the various teams, taken as units rather than individual players and hoped that this high standard would be maintained in future years.

STAFF COLLEGE At T.C.S., March 13. Won 8-2 On Saturday, March 13, the School's squash team defeated a team of officers from the R.M.C. Staff College, eight matches to two. The ofiicers had been accustomed to playing with a softer, bouncier ball and a lighter racquet, as in England. Since each person played two matches it was agreed to use the soft ball in the first and the harder one in the second. The best match of the day was the one between Tessier and Col. Stephenson. Tessier eventually came out on top, winning 2-1. All three games went to deuce and for a time it looked as though Col. Stephenson was going to win, building up a lead of 10-5 in the final game, only to lose 18-16. Paterson also had a very good match with the Hon. Private Bagley, temporary R.M.C. chaplain. Paterson won 2-0. Both these matches were played with a Canadian ball.

SCHOOL vs. PARKDALE COLLEGIATE At Port Hope, February 6 On Friday evening, the T.C.S. Gym. team defeated Parkdale Collegiate gymnasts. Outclassing their younger and much less experienced opponents, the School won by a comfortable marging 1108-711. The Parkdale boys had not had the training of our boys and consequently the tournament took on the nature of a display rather than a tournament. Dignam came first with a total score of 295 out of a possible 400, closely followed by McDowell with 291. Wels- ford came next with 268 and Thompson i came fourth with 259. The boys were at their best on the high bar. The German circles, giant circles, fly-a-ways and so on were beautifully executed and thrilling to watch. The other exercises were done on the parallel bars, pommel horses and mats. The gymnasts were marked by three judges: Mr. Batt, Mr. Scott and Mr. Armstrong. Marks were divided betvreen approach and retreat, the combination of 90 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD different exercises and their difficulty. McDowell's hori- zontal bar-work was almost flawlessly performed and he was given eighty-nine out of a hundred for it. - He also came iirst in horse work while Thompson i was the victor in the parallel bar exercises and Dignam was spectacular in the mat exercises. Best for Parkdale was Pryhoda, who took fifth place. T.C.S.-McDowell 291. Dignam 295, Welsford 268, Cox 184, Hughes ii 109, Thompson i 259.

Our team consisted of McDowell, Thompson i, Dignam, Welsford and Symons, who worked on the parallel bars and the horizontal bar. McDowell and Dignam completed their high-bar exercises each with beautiful ily-a-ways that drew horrified exclama- tions from the spectators. The Oakwood boys concentrated on mat and horse exercises. Their mat Work was done with precision and neatness that made it a pleasure to watch, while their horse work, without springboards, was also efficiently executed. .l. Gym. Exhibition at Parkdale Collegiate March6 At a carnival show held for students' benefits at Park- dale Collegiate, six T.C.S. gymnasts appeared as part of a floor show at the night club.

The boys enter- ing for T.C.S. were McDowell, Thompson i, Dignam, Wels- ford, Cox and Goering. In the last performance the gymnasts also included some mat work and a block up on the high parallel bars. The audience seemed to enjoy the exhibition and of course emitted oohs and ahhs when the fly-a-ways came along. INTER-SCHOOL SKI MEET AT NORTHUMBERLAND February 16 On February 16, the ski team journeyed to Northum- berland to compete in a meet with Malvern Collegiate, Port Hope, and Cobourg.

RECORD Our fingers fthe two we use to pound the typewriter for Record copy! have barely recovered from doing the February number and here we are at it again! There is in consequence little of national import to record. We cannot even claim to have improved our typing in such a brief period. Perhaps somebody can throw some light on just why we always use the SECOND finger of the LEFT hand and the FIRST finger of the RIGHT hand when operating our machine. It can probably all be traced back to some Nanny we had in our very early days who would not let us suck either thumb! At any rate it MUST in- dicate some form of maladjustment. Of course it MIGHT on the other hand indicate some hidden skill or aptitude which should be looked into and developed! The fact still remains that we are NOT MUCH USE at typing anyway. About twenty-two members of the J .S. enjoyed a very good day's skiing at the School ski camp recently. The snow was excellent and everybody came home with a good sunburn. Muntz and Hylton distinguished themselves as camp cooks and produced a good meal of hot-dogs and buns, doughnuts, etc. Earlier in the Week a skiing trip was made to the Golf Club. This was memorable for the wild exhibition of jumping put on by some of the hardier spirits! With the advent of what some people choose to term Spring , floor hockey has once more come into its own in the gym. This has proved to be a very fast game and many of the boys are developing a lot of skill in playing it. With hope in our hearts we have already committed the first cricket XI for two games some time in May! .

Church, IA. THE THUNDERSTORM Night was drawing near. Heavy masses of dark, threatening clouds were coming together overhead, obscur- ing the moon and stars so that the night was unusually dark. Out in the forest everything Was deathly still, even the crickets were not giving their nightly serenade. It was as though the birds and animals were anticipating with dread the approaching storm, for many were crouch- ing in their various homes, anxious, ever alert, their ears, eyes and nostrils watchful, ready to warn them of the on- coming danger. A lone rabbit hopped about by himself, every now and then sitting up on his hind legs, trying to detect the peril of which he was Warned but could not understand. From the clouded skies above occasionally came a sharp crackle as the electricity met. Suddenly the storm broke upon the still forest with all its vehemence. With a squeal of terror. the rabbit darted 98 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD under some overhanging bushes, quivering with fright. The rain was coming down in blinding sheets. Soon, rivulets of water were formed, which joined the usually placid stream, now a rushing torrent. The bushes and saplings were swaying to and fro with the violence of the wind. Frequently there would be a jagged, forked, flash of blinding lightning, or an ear-splitting crash of thunder. Suddenly there was an extra bright flash of lightning, which revealed a tall, scraggly pine, almost completely de- void of all needles, crashing majestically down, crushing the lesser trees and bushes until it finally came to rest on the streaming earth. Finally, the thunder and lightning stopped, and the rain also gradually abated. Soon only the monotonous drip, drip as the water dropped from the heavily laden bushes and trees to the soggy ground broke the silence. All the animals came out again, their wet hides gleam- ing in the first weak rays of the early morning sun. -E. L. Clarke, IIA. .

To Thy praise sing we many a true song And despise all who think not that He died For us, yet outwardly take pains to show What inwardly we fail to understand. We should worship, thank, and love Thee we know, But do ourselves reject Thy helping hand. So please, dear God, vanquish our evil parts: Make us do and not just tell Thy pure Word: Help us to be faithful, not hurt by darts Created by our own deceit. We've heard Thy teachings, Lord.

Muntz, IIA i11-T- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 101 THE SNOW STORM It was a cold, sullen day up in Lafontaine and the sky was a wretched grey. A light January wind came upon us, followed by a sparse falling of large soft flakes. Then the wind turned into a seething thirty-mile-air hour blizzard with millions of snow flakes tearing against the panes of our small, sturdy cabin from which we watched these scenes. Snow banks shifted from one place to another, trees shook violently and some of their limbs came crashing into the snow. The mercury dropped rapidly and all the gods of winter seemed on the rampage. Slowly the snow ceased to fall and only the loose flakes were blown to and fro. The wind abated and we saw what the storm had left. A beautiful shining carpet of snow, like so many diamonds, over all. -S. E. Woods, IIA2. ATHLETICS Hockey Joint-Captains ....... ,..,.....,... R . M. McDerment, K. H. Wright Vice-Captain .............l...................,................t.............,.....................t S. E. Woods This year's hockey has shown very great improve- ment since the beginning of the season. While we had a very satisfactory season with three victories and two defeats, it cannot be said that the team this year was as well-balanced as last year. Our most obvious weakness lay in the slowness of the wings. They did show much improvement but were still too slow to keep up adequately with their centres. The defence started out by being very weak but were doing a good job by the end of the season. Jackman was the most improved player on the team and did an excellent job as a defenceman with Woods playing a very hard game in our last two matches. Muntz had just begun to show good form when he broke his collar- 102 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD bone. H. Lafleur played a very steady game in goal throughout the season. The Captains McDerment and Wright were undoubtedly the outstanding players on the team. They both played good, hard hockey at all times and their leadership and fine spirit contributed a great deal to our success.

At Port Hope, February 4. won 6-2 ' Both sides played rather sluggish hockey in the first period with very few shots on goal and no scoring. The School opened up the second period with a goal by McDerment' on a pass from N. Seagram. They kept the pressure up and scored again half way through the period on a pass from McDerment to Walrath who scored. Wright collected a pass from A. Lafleur to bring in an- other goal for T.C.S. A pile-up in front of the T.C.S. net towards the end of the period brought S.A.C. their first goal. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 103 A quick goal on a long shot by McDerment in the first minute of play opened up the third period. The Saints then made a good come-back keeping the puck in the School area for some minutes during which' they scored. A neat solo rush by Wright brought another goal for T.C.S. at about the half-way mark. The final goal was scored in the closing minutes of the game on a pass from Woods to McDerment.

SCHOOL vs. THE GROVE At Port Hope, February 19. Lost 4-1 This game was unfortunately played on wet ice which made for much slower hockey than normally has been the case. The first' period saw the play evenly divided with both teams making rushes and having little success in shooting. McDerment scored first for the School on a quick breakaway as he was returning from getting a new stick. In the second period Lakefield increased the pressure and scored two goals by Whittemore and Legate. Muntz of T.C.S. had the misfortune to fracture his collar-bone dur- ing the third period. Ross ii and Legate both scored for the Grove in this period. The School put on several very strong ganging attacks in an effort to score but were un- able to get the puck into the net.

Won 6-2 The smallness of the ice surface and the unusual way in which the ice was marked out caused both sides to play very muddled and ragged hockey throughout the first period. Walrath had the misfortune to break his ankle early in the second period and this seemed to spur the School into action. McDerment, Mowry, and Seagram W., all scored during the second period with McDerment tally- ing twice. The third period saw two U.C.C. goals and goals by Wright and McDerment for T.C.S.

There was no scoring in the first period which saw the play fairly evenly divided. Ridley put on the pressure early in the second period and Hutchinson scored. A clear breakaway by McDerment from our own blue line brought the first goal for the School. The third period saw both teams fighting very hard with Ridley having a slight edge in keeping the puck in T.C.S. territory. Only excellent goal-tending by Lafleur held them out. The winning goal for T.C.S. was scored by Wright on a break- away. The whole game was every bit as close as the score would indicate with Ridley showing a little more strongly in the attack.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 105 THE HOUSE GAME Orchard vs. Rigby A sudden-death game was played between the two houses on March 4. The game was a very hard-fought one even though Rigby started out at a serious disad- vantage through the absence of Muntz and Walrath. Mention should be made of the fighting spirit displayed by Rigby Who came up from behind to score three goals and set the final scare at 4-3 for Orchard. Wright scored all three goals for Rigby. McDerment, Gordon, dePencier, W. Seagram tallied for Orchard. Final score Orchard 4, Rigby 3. Orchard House-McDerment lCapt.l, Woods, N. Seagram. W. Seagram, Mowry, dePencier, Denny.

EDITORIAL The number of sports activities last term has recently caused considerable comment. One need only look at the Sports Section of the last issue of the Record Q43 pagesj to see how busy a term it was. It was estimated that 73 games were played against other schools. Five hockey teams alone regularly competed with other schools and in many cases a boy was on two teams. For a School of our size that seems to be overdoing it. All this has given rise 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to complaints that night games and the numerous trips caused by busy league schedules and the many exhibition games have disrupted regular study to say nothing of increasing expense accounts. In fact, in a few cases teams were still playing when the players themselves felt the season should have ended. The result of all this is that suggestions have come forward for the complete abandonment of inter-school sports in favour of completely intramural games. This would avoid long all-day trips and at the same time en- sure that the boys not good enough to represent the School can still regularly take part in such recreation. In recent years in our stress on interschool games the competitive house spirit has almost disappeared, as shown by the lack of enthusiasm for the Bigside House Football game. However, it strikes me that complete intramural sports is merely going to the other extreme and would be a disastrous mistake. The School esprit de corps as a whole fades rapidly when there is no co-operation against out- side competition, and we have seen examples of this poor spirit in some schools which overstress House sports. Then too there is the reputation that a good team can bring to a School. Looking at it from the point of view of the boys, they too would lose the schoolboy experience of the team trip. Not only does it provide an occasional relief from the limited sphere and humdrum schedule of everyday boarding school life, but it gives a boy the chance to form friendships with boys in other similar schools. The ideal solution to the problem seems to be a middle course, a compromise. We would want school teams, but fewer of them-a Bigside team, and Middleside and Little- side teams to develop material for it perhaps. These teams should have easier schedules and fewer trips with perhaps Middleside and Littleside sticking to exhibition games. The First Team should decide to play either in a league or just in exhibition games, but playing both makes for too strenuous a schedule for boys trying to get their Senior TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 Matriculation at the same time. With these, we should like to see more intramural sports-not just one House game a year-but regular leagues,-to give everybody a chance. All-star teams from these groups might be chosen for an annual contest with another school to stimulate keenness and give these players the experience of at least one trip. It would be like the Rabbit League on a better and Wider scale. At any rate, whatever scheme is adopted, it would be a poor idea to drop inter-school games com- pletely. After all, the Easter marks this year were the best on School record despite the interruptions. 1 i fl fl if As this issue goes to press we are in the midst of the Upper School Final Exams and the last-minute prepara- tions for Inspection Day. This timing is extremely poor, for the boys in the Sixth Form are usually the ones who have to devote the most time to Cadet Work and prepara- tions for the gymnastic display, not to mention cricket games. As a result the boys of the Sixth Form are not able to devote their full energies to their exams or to the Inspection. In this way both the standard of the academics and of the cadet work is under a serious handicap. The obvious solution, I suppose, is to move Inspection Day, or the exams. But Where? Each term is already filled with extra activities. If Inspection were held later it Would clash With the other School finals. If earlier in the Trinity term, there would not be enough time for pre- parations in the rainy spring Weather just after Easter. The fall has been suggested, but that leaves little time for training the cadet corps so early in the School year, if it is to be held before the cold weather sets in. On the other hand if the Sixth Form Finals are moved back they come too close to the Departmental Exams to be of value. Perhaps the fault lies with our whole system of leav- ing the preparations till the four Weeks of intensive drill before Inspection. It might be easier if these were spread 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD out over the year with, say,' one night a week for drill during the period after chapel and before study. In the winter weather rifle drill could be practised in the gym. If a full turnout were ensured for each of these, a great deal of time wasted because of absentees at gym. work during regular drill periods, might be avoided. The frenzied few weeks in early May would be unnecessary and there would be less dependance on the whims of the weather at so vital a time. It might even be possible to move Inspection Day a week sooner then, so that the clash with the Sixth Form exams would not occur. This is merely a suggestion but certainly if we are to maintain a high standard both in academics and in cadet work it is necessary to remedy this situation somehow in future years. CNote: The fault lies with the calendar and the Upper School exams. Speech Day had to be earlier this year.J IW if i i I The chief event at the School since the last Record Went to press is undoubtedly the School dance. It will be a very long time before we forget this year's dance, one of the most successful the School has ever put on. This issue also marks the end of one of the most suc- cessful debating seasons T.C.S. has ever had. There were no fewer than nine interschool debates this year and we can only hope that this high standard will be kept up in the future. The success of these interschool debates has re- cently led to the rise of suggestions for a Little Big Four Debating Competition. Perhaps such an organization will materialize next year. Recently we have heard many interesting comments and suggestions regarding the Sports section of the Record. Undoubtedly, with the great number of games played last term the last issue was rather overloaded with sports. In future we are adopting a new system of devoting an article to each team's season as a whole. Only the First Team League games will in future be written up separately. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The sports section is also under the charge of a new editor, O. R. Macklem. R. H. Gaunt, who did an excellent job, has left the staff to devote more time to his studies. -R.L.W. LETTER T0 THE EDITOR Dear Mr. Editor: Down! Down, into everlasting Helliire descends my soul, and according to somebody a Mental interlude in Purgatory has begun. Recently, there has been too much of this morbid five-minutes-with-Satan type of literature in the Record, which should be bursting out all over in a June-like manner With the spirit of Joy and Youth. One feels that with all this Brimstone, description of the road to Hell and old friendships renewed there, that the Record is trying to induce T.C.S. students to try a vacation there this summer. But we must not forget the variation there is in this Wonderful collection of Writings. There is an occasional exhibition of the imprint of Death's heel or an eye-Witness account of a struggle between Age and Death. To come up to Earth for awhile, I do feel that it is about time somebody took a firm step and got rid of this type of literature in our contribution section, or else the Paradise Within this section will be lost, and never regained While Satan has access. These articles would do well in some other periodical suited to them, but not in the Record. I do suppose that the painters of these landscape sketches may argue that due to the rising cost of living, equilibrium may only be obtained by descending Souls. But why must they descend via the Record? -G. L. M. Mackenzie-Kennedy, VI Sch. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BT! fgslf 1:45 L :'f fe ' x . -ghrgfi-Nj , A., ,ex-,E!I'x.vg '- Qetmggfx A .

R. Beverley, Bishop of Toronto, officiating. Thirty-three candidates were presented to make one of the largest classes ever to be presented at T.C.S. For the text of his address, Bishop Beverley chose the following words from the fourth chapter of The Epistle to the Philippians: Whatsoever things are just, whatso- ever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, what- soever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Bishop Beverley then went on to explain why we have the service of conirmation, and told the candidates of their duty to try to keep the vows which they make in con- firmation. The vows mean nothing, he said, unless one constantly struggles to keep away from their opposites. Bishop Beverley then closed by saying that we must all take time to think over the great truths upon which our religion is founded. The choir, under the direction of Mr. Cohu, were up to their usual excellence, and they gave a particularly beautiful rendering of the anthem Jesu meek and lowly by Sir Edward Elgar. 0n Palm Sunday a Choral Communion was held so that the newly confirmed might celebrate their Brst com- munion, and again the work of the choir was excellent. -ii- Honest Thomas On Sunday, April 11, the Venerable W. P. Robertson, Archdeacon of Peterborough, spoke in Chapel. He discuss- ed the life of the disciple Thomas who, he said, was known quite wrongly as Doubting Thomas. He pointed out that Thomas was merely of an inquiring nature and needed proof to believe. As soon as Thomas believed something, such as the resurrection of Jesus, he followed it through to the end no matter what happened. It should be noted 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD that Thomas died a martyr's death in his work for Chris- tianity and he should be known not as doubting Thomas but as faithful Thomas. r Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God On Sunday, April 18, the Very Rev. G. M. Luxton, Dean of Huron, spoke in Chapel on the great need for clergy to fill the present shortage. He called on us to follow the example of many of our Old Boys such as Arch- bishop Worrell and Bishop Brent and to build up as good a record in the service of God as our Old Boys have in the service of their country during the two world wars. In his stirring address the Dean quoted from Winston Chur- chill and gave a vivid outline of the life of Christian adven- ture which Bishop Renison has led. The Life of Saint Mark On Sunday evening, April 25, St. Mark's Day, the Chaplain gave us a short sermon on the life of St. Mark. He showed that although Mark could not take the physical punishment that men like St. Paul could endure, he was of great value to the early church with his Gospel which is part of the story of the life of Jesus as seen through the eyes of St. Peter. , Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone On May 2 the Rev. Hugh Bedford-Jones, the new rector of Cobourg, visited the School. He took for his text the words of St. Matthew: Man shall not live by bread alone . Taking us on an imaginary Walk down a city street he showed us all man's needs and how they are filled. Ending the walk with a visit to the Church, he pointed out that the church provides man with truth, love and a sense of right and wrong, and that if we are to live a full and pleasant life we must follow our Lord in every- thing we do. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 sus: 5 10 M W A' C OO -e g Notes THE IVIEMORIAL FUND As We go to press we hear that the amount contri- buted to the Memorial Fund for the building of a new Chapel and possibly a Gate House is some S'p235,000. The objective is S250,000 and if another 35,000 is given we are assured of a further donation of S10,000, bringing the fund up to the long sought total of S250,000. The wonderful success of the campaign is largely due to Mr. C. F. W. Burns, the Chairman, who organized it and has now directed it for a year and a half with unremitting energy and confidence. He has been assisted by a number of Old Boys who have been of invaluable helpg much more will be said about the campaign when we have reached our objective. One last great effort and we shall go over the top! Gifts to the School Mrs. R. F. Forrest has given the School two hundred dollars to be used to help deserving boys in emergencies. O Il 8 if if Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Cooper of Bermuda gave the lovely flowers on the altar at the Confirmation Service. il 1 8 S fl G. S. Osler and L. L. McMurray have sent magazines regularly to the School. 1 Il S if 3 Norman Kelk C12-'15J presented the Junior School with six cricket balls. 1U TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Met Movies On Monday, April 12, members of the Fifth Form who are studying meteorology saw a number of movies dealing with the formation of thunderstorms dangerous to aero- planes, and the formation of various kinds of fronts. These films were produced by the United States armed forces, and illustrated their points very clearly without using any obscure technical terms, reducing the very complicated ideas so that they could be understood Without difficulty. We thank Mr. Bishop very much for arranging for the films, and Mackenzie for operating the projector. Half-Holidays The School received two half-holidays recently. The first, on Saturday, April 17, eliminated the morning classes. It was given in honour of the visit of D. Martin, head boy in 1935, and his Wife. The second came on Thursday, April 29, in honour of the visit of Rev. P. B. Clayton, rector of All Hallows, London, and one of the founders of Toc H. Founder's Day On May 1, the School celebrated Founder's Day, the eighty-third birthday of the School, and Saturday was made into a Whole holiday in honour of this special occa- sion. A special Founder's Day Service was held in the Chapel that evening. Chmfch Parade On Sunday, May 9, the Cadet Corps paraded to St. Mark's Church in Port Hope where they took part in the morning service. The service was conducted by the School Chaplain and the Rev. Mr. Boulden. The lesson was read by the Head- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 master. The sermon was given by Mr. Boulden. After the service the Corps marched through town coming up to the School campus from behind the new Tuck. This is the first time the Corps has worn white gloves in over five years and the effect achieved was very good. Art Movies On the evening of Saturday, April 24, the Third Form and many other members of the School were shown three excellent films on Canadian Art in the study hall. The first Elm, Painters of Quebec , gave a colourful portrayal of the original styles of five contemporary artists from that province, each working in his favorite surroundings. The second film, Canadian Landscape , gave us a per- sonal trip with one of the country's leading artists, A. Y. Jackson, Where we learn how he brilliantly interprets the Canadian scene. The last and perhaps the most interest- ing film was West Wind . This was a brief glimpse into the life and work of the late Tom Thompson, believed by many to be Canada's greatest nature artist. All three films, released through the National Film Board, were found both interesting and educational by the audience. The Political Science Club Since the last issue of the Record the Political Science Club has held two meetings. In the irst Jack Gwynne- Timothy gave the Club an extremely interesting and amusing talk on college life at the University of Toronto placing special emphasis on Varsity history courses and campus politics. In the second Dwight Fulford spoke on the Liberal Party and proved, to his own satisfaction at least, its superiority over other Canadian political parties. In addition, the members of the Club attended a provincial 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD nominating convention of the Conservative Party of Dur- ham Countyg this experience with rural democracy in action was of undoubted value in developing the political realism of the members. Dr. Watson Kirkconnel, Presi- dent-elect of Acadia University, delivered in Port Hope a well-documented attack on the Communist Party which was heard by the Club membersg Dr. Kirkconnel, because of his extensive use of slides of actual Communist docu- ments, was very convincing. The Art Group This year the Art Group under the direction of Mr. Key has organized itself into a society. Stratford has been elected president, Hughes ii secretary, and Brinckman i treasurer. Although many boys do some work with the society whenever their other interests permit, the stal- warts of the club are Baker, Cooper, Croll, and Macklem ii. The Art Group does many useful bits of decoration around the School. Decorations for the School Dance is one of its biggest and certainly most appreciated and admired projects. Last year's Mexican Scenery in the refresh- ment room will always be remembered. And this year's theme of popular songs in the hall was very impressive. Another project that falls into the hands of the Art Group is the designing of sets for the School play. We have been informed by usually reliable sources that the oak panelling that was made for Captain Applejack two years ago is at last being put on the retired list after yeoman service . Everyone thought it was the last word when it made its debut, but the ship lounge set this year was equally superb. Just for a taste of what's to come, the Art Group held an exhibition that lasted from the end of the last term to the beginning of this. This exhibit included a number of lino-print Christmas cards. Most of the other works TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 on display were scenes from nature and all these were extremely well done. Once again We should like to con- gratulate the Group on their past work and we look for- ward With pleasure to the next demonstration of their skill. Piano Recital Saturday, April 10 It augurs well for the future if this School can con- tinue to produce pianists like Anthony Prower. One of our younger Old Boys, Tony returned to the School to pre- sent probably the best received recital of this or any year. Tony has not been at the Montreal Conservatory long, but his efforts were as Hnished and as accomplished as any we have enjoyed at the School. Choosing a programme of light concert music, Tony was able to do something that pianists often fail to do-that is, entertain. It was a de- lightful concert. The complete programme is as follows:- Suite in G Minor, Handel, Sonata in E Minor, Bee- thoven, Pavanne, Byrd, Italian Concerto, Bach, Ballade in G Minor, Brahms, La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin, Debussy, Chorale from Easter Cantata No. 4, Bach arr. Rummel. Tony was brought back for several encores and for these he played selections from the modem composers- George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Jerome Kern. These were very much appreciated. .l.1. g-71.11. Visit of the Rev. P. B. Clayton On April 14, the School was greatly honoured by a visit from the Rev. Tubby Clayton, Rector of All Hallows Church in London, chaplain to His Majesty the King, and the founder of the Toc H. Society. As the Rev. Gilbert Williams, a member of Toc H. had spoken to us last term in Chapel, we already knew something about the work of this organization. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Rev. Mr. Clayton, accompanied by his assistant, the Rev. Mr. Robinson, came equipped with a large mun- ber of pictures and maps, and after lunch he showed them to the School and gave a very interesting talk. He told us of the history and present day conditions in the eastern part of London. Mr. Clayton astounded and saddened us with some facts about the hardships endured by these Londoners. In his parish of 17,000 people, there were only six houses left intact after the blitzg 30,000 people were killed in the East End alone. Each person in London is allowed only two eggs and two quarts of milk per month. But despite this , continued Mr. Clayton, the morale of the Londoners has never been higher. The founder of Toc H. ended with a plea for aid to these people. Many young men are needed in social work there. The Head- master thanked Mr. Clayton and promised the half-holiday for which he had asked. After the talk everyone was given a chance to make a closer inspection of the pictures which Mr. Clayton had shown and many took advantage of this opportunity. They were all beautifully done by an ex-R.A.F. pilot, Jim McClure. There were several views of All Hallows Church where William Penn was christened many years ago and which has been destroyed several times, most recently by the blitz. There was also a drawing of the proposed new park on Tower Hill where All Hallows Church is situated, which will contain public tennis courts, a stadium and other recreational facilities. Mr. Clayton also displayed many interesting historic cuts of London in the past. Many boys followed the padre into the Carnegie Room where countless photographs and postcards of the area around Tower Hill were displayed. Mr. Clayton presented the School with a beautiful coloured map of London, show- ing points of interest, another map showing devastation wrought by the air raids, and a letter from Mary Churchill, daughter of the former British Prime Minister, asking if she could help Mr. Clayton's relief work in any way. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Mr. Clayton left shortly after for Toronto and then England as this was the last talk on his trip through the United States and Canada to enlist help for the people of England. The School is indeed very grateful to Mr. Clay- ton for coming to us and enlightening us on a subject in which we should all certainly take a great interest. . -1. i.i The Choir Dinner The annual Choir dinner was held this year on Thurs- day, May 6. The dinner was one of Mrs. Wilkin's best efforts, and was voted a howling success by the entire Choir. In keeping with the new austerity speech pro- gramme, the Headmaster's remarks were very brief. He congratulated the Choir for their fine work throughout the year. Mr. Cohu was his usual amusing self in thanking the Choir for their co-operation. Mr. Bagley maintained that all he could ever hear was the tenor section but con- gratulated them anyway. The head Choir-boy, Goering, paid sincere tribute to Mr. Cohu in thanking him for his efforts this year, and Hunt, the head J.S. Choir-boy, seconded Goering's words. Newly designed Choir pins were given to all the mem- bers of the Choir and they were much appreciated. St. Patrick's Day One year ago the tuck shop was unofficially opened for customers. In celebration for the Hrst anniversary, Mrs. Ketchum donated a St. Patrick's Day cake to the tuck and it was distributed to the Hrst of the boys that were fortunate enough to get over. Since the Tuck was opened a year ago there have been only praises directed towards it. The food has been ex- cellent and Miss Fick and Mrs. Wright should be con- gratulated. We are coniident that they will maintain this fine reputation they have built up. 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD New Privileges The School and the Record would like to take this opportunity of congratulating the new privileges made since the last issue. They are:-House Prefects: D. A. H. Snowdon, R. S. Carson, T. M. H. Hall, J. N. Hughes: Seniors: D. W. Fulford, W. I. K. Drynan, D. J. Emery, J. J. M. Patersong House Officers: J. D. dePencier, O. R. Macklem, D. G. Sweny, J. W. Austin, D. Y. Bogueg Second Year: Ballantyne. Boys hors de combat The School sends its sympathy to Andrew Tessier who is now in the sanatorium at St. Catharines. Tess left at Easter to continue his studies in Toronto but he de- veloped a bad cough which disclosed a lung infection. He is expected to make a full recovery within a year. Charles Beaubien and Dick Brown have been unable to return this term because of illness. The former has had a long session and We trust they will both be fit again very soon. Photographs of Britain An exhibition of photographs of English and Scottish scenes was on display for nearly three Weeks at the beginning of term. The pictures were particularly clear and vivid and they gave an unusual insight into British life and environment. We are grateful to the National Gallery for lending us such an interesting exhibit. ,.i.l.i-1? .- The Hockey And Basketball Dilmer Thursday, April 29 . - The annual Hockey Dinner was held a little late this year, but the hockey and basketball seasons were far from forgotten. It featured an excellent dinner and an amaz- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 ingly small number of speeches. After dinner, the Head- master spoke a few words of congratulations to both teams for their fine record this year. Special mention was made of the basketball team, for this is the first time in the annals of the School that they have ever won a cham- pionship. Mr. Ketchum also suggested less games with outside schools, and more intramural sports as a substitute, thus lessening the necessity of too many trips. Mr. Humble was the next speaker and he in turn referred to the fine work of both teams. He continued with a word of praise for the idea of the two first teams travelling together, which has worked so well this year, and he drew attention to the good work done during the winter in keeping all three outside rinks in constant operation. The hockey captain, Bruce i, then thanked the coach and remarked on the flexible style of play which had been developed during the season. He was followed by Mr. Hodgetts, who after the usual congratulations, said a few words on the Head- master's idea of less away games. Gaunt, the basketball captain, was the next speaker and he thanked him for the good year that the team had enjoyed under his coaching. Mr. Key and Mr. Gwynne-Timothy closed the speeches by adding their praise to the rest. The dinner ended with the awarding of trophies. Gaunt was given the most valuable player award for bas- ketball and Bruce the Captain's Cup in hockey. CORRECTIONS Gordon Johnson U24-'29J writes in reference to the article on the School Fire of 1928, published in the April number, that he was unable, through illness, to accompany the hockey team to Toronto on the day of the fire but was skating in the covered rink when he saw smoke coming in large quantities from the cricket room. This room was the centre one on the second floor at the west end of the 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD rink. He immediately sounded the alarm by rushing to Mr. Geldard's room on the lower flat. Gordon also reminds the author of the article on de- bating that there was a fair amount of organized debating at Woodstock between 1928 and 1930. TI-IE SCHOOL DANCE During the eighty-three years of the School's exist- ence, the boys of T.C.S. have enjoyed themselves to the utmost fifteen times. These have been the fifteen School dances. On the evening of April 5, 1948, the fifteenth School Dance took place. CFanfares: Can ya lend me two bucks for a corsage? J. After the boys had gone through the ordeal of dressing, when friends become enemies,- and many a stud is forced down a roommate's throat, the mob pounded in the rain towards the Junior School to claim their partners. At 9.00 or thereabouts a varied group arrived at the door of the Hall prepared to Dahnse . One thing was missing, the orchestra. However, only an hour late the music started, and light-hearted, heavy-footed youths tripped the Welterweight fantastic. Along with their cor- sages the fair nymphs wore special T.C.S. dance pins, an innovation which we hope will be continued. After a few hours of trying not to bump the Head and not to be bump- ed by Mr. Hodgetts, a very welcome buffet supper was served. Then diverse couples retired to diverse sitting-out rooms, all magnificently decorated. The House Oiiicers' Common Room particularly deserves special mention for its lighting effects, obtained from candles inserted in empty bottles. At midnight the massive balloons filled with confetti, hanging from the ceiling, were dramatically pricked, and the crepe decorations which were supposed to last the 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 School for years to come, were draped about many a gor- geous chassis. Since the orchestra was delayed so long. we were kindly allowed an extra, eventful hour which was highlighted by a conga line, some bee-ootiful waltzes, and a drum solo by Mr. Ketchum. He even got an encore! With fireworks! From 2.00 to 2.45 a.m. all over the School people were saying goodnight, and one by one the girls were returned to the J.S. At 3 a.m. Mr. Tottenham made the rounds and the remaining hundred or so girls ushered themselves to bed. Thus ended a really wonderful dance. The next morning after breakfast it was interesting to see the motley groups wandering around the campus. All of our rival Little Big Four Schools were well repre- sented and for the girls, B.S.S., Havergal, Ovenden, and Trafalgar did not lack their followers. Also one could occasionally see an Old Boy, usually in some sort of vehicle breaking all speed regulations around the track. For lunch the ski-camp became the Durham County Riviera and Des Bogue competed with Mr. Tol1's portraits of the night before--subtle difference in atmosphere and dress. Gloom was etched on many faces as they watched the departing trains bearing their loved one's away, and the remarks fell into the usual three categories. Some said, Oh swell , others said, Oh well , and a great majority, Oh ..... . There are really so many people to tha.nk for making the dance such a success that we don't know where to begin. Mrs. Wilkin and her staff did a wonderful job with the food, Mr. Key and his Art Group contributed some very amusing drawings, and Miss Wilkin, together with a few of the more willing prefects and seniors, did amazing things with little rolls of crepe paper. Thank you all very much. Gee, I wonder whom I'l1 ask next year? 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD PARCELS OF FOOD TO ENGLISH BOYS In view of the strict rationing in England, the School Council decided to send parcels of food to a number of English boys. Nearly a hundred dollars was given for this purpose by boys in the Senior School and after some con- sideration the Schools selected were Gordonstoun School, Elgin. Morayshire, and Trinity College, Glenalmond, Perth- shire. Gordonstoun was chosen because the Duke of Edin- burgh was a pupil there and the School felt such a gift could be made as an indirect form of a wedding present to H.R.H. the Princess Elizabeth and the Duke. In addition, one of our boys, Tom Huxley, went to Gordonstoun when he returned to England. Trinity College, Glenalmond, was chosen because it was the first school to help T.C.S. after the fire of 1928: Leather-bound prayer books were given for the use of the clergy in Chapel. . The parcels were special ones consisting of butter, bacon and fresh eggs, sent by air mail. Most appreciative letters have been received by the School. The Private Secretary to the Princess Elizabeth Wrote as follows: Princess Elizabeth has asked me to thank you for your letter and to say how particularly kind and thoughtful she thinks it of you, the Staff and the Boys of Trinity College School to have sent a number of food parcels to Gordonstoun School as a Wedding Present to Her Royal Highness and to The Duke of Edinburgh. The Princess has shown your letter to The Duke, and His Royal Highness was very glad in- deed to think that his old school should benefit in this way from Trinity College School's generosity. Mr. Kurt Hahn, Headmaster of Gordonstoun, wrote as follows: I am deeply grateful for the magnanirnous gift which the Trinity College School has sent to Gor- donstoim. Our boys are touched by the generosity and thoughtfulness of your boys. Practically all have heard of Trinity Collegeg Tom Huxley was very popu- lar here and, as you probably know, did admirably TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 and rose to be second-in-command of the School iVice- Guardianj. Some of the boys are anxious to take advantage of your gift to send some of their own rations to Salem, our sister school in Germany. Prince Philip was there before he came to Gordonstoun in 1935. I shall not use any pressure on the boys to make such an unselfish decision for it must be completely spon- taneous, and the matter will be discussed at the next Colour Bearer meeting fthe Colour Bearers cor- respond to your Council.J There is a widespread feel- ing in the school that the misery in Europe is such that what can be spared in luxuries should be sent out there and it is natural for Gordonstoun to single out Salem, which re-opened in November 1945 after a most courageous resistance against the Nazis carried out ever since I was imprisoned by Hitler in 1933. I am sending by air a copy of the wedding pre- sent Which the two schools gave to the Duke of Edinburgh. Only a few copies have been printed so far, but I would like you to have one in your library as a token of our gratitude for the goodwill you have shown us. May I say how much I would welcome any of your staff and boys here as our guests. Mr. Christopher Smith, Warden of Trinity College, Glenalmond, said that some of his staff remembered well the occasion when we had the collection in Chapel to help T.C.S. at the time of the fire and they are glad to think that the small gifts we were able to send are still in use in your chapel and that they are valued by you. It might be of interest to your boys to know that We celebrated our centenary this year, and that on that occa- sion we had the honour of a visit from The Queen. In a second letter he wrote: The boys' parcels arrived a few days ago and, only last night, the whole of the School had a special dish of eggs and bacon made from the contents. I gather that it was a great success, but I am leaving the Captain of the School to write and thank your own boys direct. I am sure he will do it much more 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD effectively than I can. I can assure you, however, that everything arrived in excellent condition. - 1iT The Annual Report of the Montreal Branch of the Ladies' Guild I have the honour to present the fourth annual report of the Trinity College School Ladies' Guild, Montreal, for the year 1947-48. Three meetings of the Executive Committee have been held during the year with an average attendance of eight. Our paid up membership, which is composed of mothers of boys attending the School and mothers and wives of Old Boys of the School, is now 113, seventeen of these being life members. The usual fee of 30.25 per member amounting to 3324.25 was paid to the Toronto Guild to help defray costs of printing and other expenses incurred on our behalf. The sum of 55150.00 was sent to Mr. Ketchum for the Montreal bursary and 850.00 was donated toward the redecorating of the Guild Room at T.C.S. Mr. Ketchum informed us that this year the bursary was presented to a new boy in the Senior School whose father, an Old Boy, served overseas with distinction during the last war as a chaplain in the Canadian Army. This lad has done extremely well both in his studies and in sports. The members of this Guild are bound together by a common interest in the welfare of our sons. In the uncer- tain days through which the World is passing, we know that the only thing which we can give to our children which can never be taken from them is a good education. By maintaining our membership in the Guild and urging other mothers to join we are contributing to the bursary and helping other boys Whose parents for various reasons might otherwise be unable to give their sons the valuable opportunity for development of mind, body and spirit TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 which only a school like T.C.S. can provide. Two dollars a year is a small price to pay for this privilege. We record, with sorrow, the death of one of our mem- bers, Mrs. W. C. Hamilton of Isle Maligne, Quebec. To those members of the Executive Committee who are retiring this year We wish to express our gratitude and our appreciation of their services, particularly to our Pre- sident, Mrs. Bovey, whose active interest has been of the greatest value to the Guild since its foundation. Respectively submitted, HELEN LEWIS, Honorary Secretary. f g ft l- ,,. V FW l 3 BN M fl V' .N W li ll 'N W in X , . . ,AQX WXN -WWW A M 7 4 I l W Nxfsix W NMR 1. ,f I 1 4, X -X ri ' IN A N X.

UNA,-9 jp 94 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD figlegi-Xl A X s - ,feaiv p 25 R ,S SCHOOL PLAYS According to the records of 1900, the School's first dramatic effort was the trial scene from The Merchant of Venice and a farce entitled A Chapter of Accidents . Macklem's father took the leading female role in the latter play. Next recorded is a series of musicales written by a boy named Winchester and performed in the basement of the gymnasium. The best of these, a great success in 1913, was Vera, the Circus Girl, a name somewhat re- miniscent of the popular Bigside Football performances in the more recent Christmas entertainments. The Head- master was a chorus girl in Vera , The next year, two comedies were presented, Ici On Parle Francais and Turn Him Out. The waitress in the latter was the pre- sent Headmaster. These plays were staged in the dining room or in the gymnasium basement, with the aid of im- provised lights and curtains. Sets, costumes, and make- up were likewise not what they might have been, however, this did not detract from the enjoyment with which the plays were received. Apparently there was no organized Dramatic Society until 1924, and then it lasted only through 1926. For ten years, however, the late Col. Stevenson conducted a Play Reading Club. The present Dramatic Society was formed and a constitution drawn up three years ago. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 As might be expected, comedies have been the most popular type of entertainment. According to the records there have been fifteen comedies, nine serious dramas, and eight Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas. Two of Shake- speare's plays have been produced, the already mentioned trial scene from The Merchant of Venice in 1900, and Twelfth Night in 1938. The School tried an interesting experiment in this play, the stage being modelled after the original Elizabethan stage. Most of the action took place on a projecting platform with no curtain and very little scenery. The effect was remarkably successful and with- out a doubt added to the appreciation of the play. Although Gilbert and Sullivan operettas have been performed less often than comedies or dramas, they have been repeated as often as comedies. Trial by Jury was put on in 1924 and 1931, and H.M.S. Pinafore in 1925 and 1943. In the second production of Trial by Jury , Mr. Lewis revealed himself as an excellent character i11 the part of the usher. Captain Applejackf' the great hit of three years ago, was also produced in 1934, and The Rehearsal was put on in 1939 and repeated last Christmas. In 1934 the School acquired the stage which is still in use, although in great need of replacement. The next year The Dover Road was produced and was considered at the time the best play in the School's history. In 1939 the masters' wives were introduced to the School in the female roles of It Pays to Advertise. Mrs. Tottenham took part in this production. A casualty occurred in this play when one of the actors stepped back- ward carrying the end of a heavy couch down some steps, that had very thoughtfully been removed a few moments before. That year not only brought the innovation of the Masters' Wives, but it saw the longest bill, with three one- act plays and one of three acts. The three short plays Were General Wolfe, Cox and Box, a Burnand and Sul- livan operetta featuring Mr. Lewis, and The Rehearsal . Three nights later the longer comedy, It Pays to Adver- 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD tise, was presented. Twice the School has featured two full-length productions in one year. In 1943 The Bat and H.M.S. Pinafore were presented, and in 1946 Cap- tain Applejack and The Pirates of Penzance . The ill- fated Bat was an almost miraculous production, for several actors got sick at the last moment and hectic re- placements Were hastily made. In spite of these difliculties this play was a tremendous success and surpassed all its predecessors. In 1943-'44-'46 the School produced a series of plays of a very high standard. The first of these was The Bat , whose leading female part was played by Chris Bovey, the brother of this year's actor, followed by The Cat and the Canary and Captain Applejackn. The latter is rivalled only by last year's production, The Queen's Hus- band. This year's play, Outward Bound , was excel- lently performed but was not entirely suited to the audience. Since 1900, the School has produced thirty-four plays in all. This impressive record has made the School dra- matic efforts a definite part of School life, and we hope that the excellent tradition will be maintained. -P. T. Macklem, VA. 6553 Q3 fm? TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 THE ORGANIZATION OF THE RECORD The Record has to be organized, it just doesn't cheer- fully compose and compile itself six times a year. Over the years a system of organization has been built up which often works almost as well in practice as in theory. Record continuity is naturally provided by the Head- master and the magazine's advisory master, Mr. A. H. Humble, but the most important individual is the Editor- in-Chief, who is appointed at the beginning of each year by the Headmaster and the advisory master, after con- sidering the recommendations of the previous year's editors. The Editor-in-Chief then has a large measure of independence, for though he obviously often receives sug- gestions from the advisory master, who is there to advise, he is not dictated to, as long as he efficiently performs his duties. I-Iis job is to keep the various sections of the Record in some kind of proportion and then to pursue his assistants to obtain the necessary material. He often has to revise and change much of what he receives and in addi- tion Writes the editorials and the occasional article. The Editor-in-Chief does not deal directly With the staff, but has under him assistant editors who organize, collect, and revise the contributions for each section be- fore he receives them. These editors for the Sports, News, Literary, and Feature Sections and in addition one Assist- ant Editor, who is a special handyman for the Editor-in- Chief, are chosen in September by the Editor-in-Chief and the advisory master. The remainder of the Record staff is then picked by the Editors, the Editor-in-Chief, and the advisory master from those applying for positions in September. Staff members are sometimes added or removed during the year, depending upon the interest, efforts, and efficiency shown. Assignments in the News and Sports departments are supposed to be in Within forty-eight hours of the event ithis, of course, is presuming that the editor remembered QS TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to assign the work before the event occurred.J Writers for the Feature and Literary staffs are given two Weeks, because to do their work usually involves research or original thought rather than straight reporting. Much of the contribution section comes from individuals not on the literary staff who are stimulated by a creative urge, their English master, or the Literary Editor. Besides his re- porters, each editor has a typist assigned to his staff to type all the articles. The photographs for the Record are chosen by the Editor-in-Chief, the advisory master, the head photographer, and, if a sports photo, by the Sports Editor as well, and illustrations are usually drawn by one or two special members of the staff. Cuts for the photo- graphs and drawings are made in Hamilton and are then sent on to the printer at Cobourg. The business manager, under the general supervision of the Record's treasurer, Mr. A. H. N. Snelgrove, is in charge of the laborious process of retaining old advertisers and discovering new ones. The Junior School material is taken care of by the Junior School principal, Mr. C. J. Tottenham, and the staff which he appoints, While the Old Boys' Notes are collected by the Secretary of the Old Boys' Association and Mr. Ketchum. Any item for the Record is first checked, corrected, and sometimes eliminated by the Editor in charge of the section for which it is writteng it is then passed on to the Editor-in-Chief, and again it is checked, corrected and sometimes eliminatedg he also decides whether an accom- panying illustration should be drawn. The material which the Editor-in-Chief passes is further checked by Mr. Humble and the Headmaster. Finally, what is left after the various chopping-processes, is sent on the press date to the printer in Cobourgg this is three Weeks before the Record is actually published. Last minute items receive a similar scrutiny but are sent to the printer a Week later. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 For over thirty years Record printing has been done by Mr. Lapp in Cobourg, but unfortunately he has recently been forced to retire because of ill health. Mr. Russell has now taken over the shop and is carrying on with the print- ing of the magazine. The printer sets up the type and then prints a set of proofs on long strips of news sheet of Record width, which are called galleys. These galleys are quickly but thoroughly checked by the Assistant Editor, the Editor-in-Chief, Mr. Humble, and Mr. Ketchum, for typographical errors and any mistakes previously overlooked. They must be examin- ed and returned to the printer within a few days. Three or four days after the last galleys have been returned, the Editor-in-Chief, Mr. Humble, and the busi- ness manager go to the Cobourg printing press and help set up the Record, this is generally a week after the Stop Press Date. The galleys are arranged in frames for each page and a table of contents is drawn up. Cuts of various drawings are placed in the desired positions and at the end of different sections as fillers, and any necessary minor changes or additions are made. One week later the completed Record is published. Next, the reluctant staff is drafted into performing the bothersome task of addressing envelopes more or less legibly for the Record subscribers. Then finally the Editor- in-Chief, his Editors, and the advisory master meet to look over the various mistakes and to try to plan a better Record prepared with less work for the next time.

At 1'.c.s., April 16 For the second consecutive year, the School played hosts to the Upper Canada College debating team. The subject was resolved that Canada would be better off if she joined the United States . We were well represented by Williamson, McDonald, and Burland. Alley, the secre- tary of the Debating Society, presided as Speaker, and the judges were the Rev. John Galloway, Mr. John Garland, and the Rev. Mr. Nind. Williamson for the Government stressed the economic advantages in a union with the United States arguing that Canada needs American industry and capital. The Hrst speaker for the Opposition, Fraser, laid emphasis on the patriotic and sentimental nature of the Canadian attach- ment toward Britain as a cause for remaining a dominion. The next speaker for the School was McDonald, who argued from a political standpoint, attempting to show that the American form of government is more eiiicient than our own. He was followed by R. Wilson for the negative who spoke of the British Trade Preference, labour trouble, inflation in the United States, and inferior educa- tion as concrete grounds for not joining. The School's last speaker was Burland whose subject was culture, and he argued that as we have a common culture with America we should be a unified nation. The final U.C.C. debater was D. Wilson, who attempted to convince us that despite what McDonald had said, the American government is TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 deiinitely inferior to our own. This is so , he said, Be- cause the President has power over the civil service and the presidential and congressional elections are not simul- taneous. Williamson gave a very good rebuttal and the judges retired to consider the issue. There were a few speeches from the floor notably by Croll, Baker, Cleland and Oman. The division of the House was won by the Government by a score of 39-8. But when asked if, regardless of the debate, they would support union, the vote was almost entirely negative. An interesting and possibly significant fact was that while all of Upper Canada's speakers came from Toronto and vicinity we had one from the East, one from the West and one from out- side the Dominion, to argue the case. The chairman of the judges, the Rev. John Galloway announced that the affirmative had won, the total points being 690 to 577. Mr. Galloway commended the orderly procedure of the government's argument and remarked that it had been a very close and interesting debate. The School's best speaker was Williamson, while Fraser was best for the visitors. Two procedures neglected by speakers on both sides, however, were the use of gestures and of humour which can be very effective. Points are given for both these and only two speakers employed the former and one the latter to any extent. Nevertheless, it was agreed that this was indeed a very good debate. SCHOOL vs. u.c.c. At Toronto, April 16 On Friday, April 16, the T.C.S. and U.C.C. debating teams discussed the question of a Canadian union with the United States. U.C.C. maintained that it would be of bene- lit to the Canadian people, while the T.C.S. team of Snow- don, Herridge and Fulford upheld the negative. H. Bowan of U.C.C. acted as speaker, while Miss McNaughton, senior English mistress at B.S.S., and Mr. David Guest, a Toronto lawyer, kindly consented to judge the debate. 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD H. Trotter for U.C.C. opened the argument, stating that with the Commonwealth weakening, Canada must look elsewhere for aid in time of War. The U.S., he main- tained, is the obvious choice, since our peoples are much alike in origin, and the greater part of our foreign trade is with our southern neighbour. Snowdon, of T.C.S., countered by' showing that Ontario and Quebec, which in- clude two-thirds of Canada's population, would gain nothing by union, and Canada's important role as mediator in international disputes cannot be easily filled. S. Steven- son for U.C.C. felt that with union, and the resultant tariff abolition, new businesses would come into Canada, and the demand for raw materials would promote more rapid de- velopment of our northland. Herridge for T.C.S. said that it would mean use of the U.S. system of government which is, he argued, much inferior to our own. The Canadian parliament would become swamped, and Canada's own cul- ture which is now developing would be smothered. Dawson, third speaker for Upper Canada, further stressed Canada's weak position in the event of another war, and stated that co-operation with the U.S. in defence matters is not adequate, and that, in the case of an attack, American aid would be too late. Fulford, in a clever rebuttal for T.C.S., demolished several of U.C.C.'s main arguments, especially their arguments as far as the matter of defence is con- cerned. Trotter, rebutting for U.C.C., maintained that our new culture would not necessarily disappear, and refuted the T.C.S. arguments that Canada would become primarily a producer of raw materials. While the judges retired to make their decision, several members of the house delivered speeches from the floor. After a short time, the speaker asked for a division of the house, both as far as personal feelings were concerned and also considering the cases each side presented. Personally, the majority of members were against union, and a ma- jority also felt that the T.C.S. arguments were stronger. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 03 Mr. Guest returned the judges' decision in favour of T.C.S., and commended both sides on their preparation on the subject, and also for their manner of speaking. Hc felt, however, that both sides erred, in that they made statements without backing them up with proper evidence. He also commended the speakers on their use of humour now and then, but warned them against being facetious. Fulford was considered the best speaker for T.C.S., while Stevenson stood out for U.C.C. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At T.C.S., April 23 The Debating Society closed its season by debating with St. Andrew's College on the subject: Resolved that organized sports and cinema performances should be legally tolerated in Ontario on Sundays . The visitors sup- ported the motion. Wishart was the first to speak for the Government. He stated that if the church needs a monopoly of one day every week in order to survive it should be discarded as useless. Williamson made the nrst speech for the Opposi- tion. He stressed the position of the people who have to do the work in entertaining others. He said that these pemple did not want to work on Sundays tHe had consulted the local movie managerj and that it would be selfish to make them do so. Taylor of S.A.C. spoke next. He began his speech with some rather ineffective rebutting and went on to say that the average worker is lost on Sunday afternoon be- cause he has nothing to do. Sunday entertainment would remedy this. Taylor of T.C.S., the second speaker for the Opposition, pointed out the disadvantages of professional sports, and spectacle entertainment, stressing the com- mercialization of Sunday. In supporting the motion Dins- more showed the financial advantage of working another day a week. He pointed out that we have no respect for the Jewish Sabbath and that they at least should be SQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD allowed Sunday entertainment. Fulford was the last to speak for the Opposition. He did most of the rebutting for his team and made several pungent remarks about the Government's argument. He did not bring up any new points. By the end of the rebuttal by Wishart the House was almost out of control as the pointed remarks of the third speaker for the Opposition were somewhat barbed. The heated debate continued after the judges retired and finally, when the House divided, the motion was defeated by three votes C23-203. The judges sustained the House in its decision.

Outward Bound portrays the mythical voyage of a ship carrying its passengers from this World to the next. It had a great appeal despite its rather serious theme and portrayal, keeping the audience somewhat tense through- out. For the Dramatic Society, it was a very venturesome undertaking and everyone connected with the play has reason to feel proud of the magnificent way it was handled. Mr. Dale, aided by Taylor, has again produced a really fine effort. Notable among the actors, who all gave ' I Es pf' N125 .Km fl J an .:.--Mft ,.-1. .-,W A-3 .qw-s, 5 ,, ,wwe -v' is sd 'WW wr gw ,Qf f5x'36y wg-,A-'f' my .ffm 9 , 11 'SQ 'WA ex 4. me 'r .

But it is hardly fair to single out in- dividuals when the whole cast gave a truly polished per- formance. Also to be heartily congratulated are the other various managers. Woods as Set Manager, de Pencier as stage manager, Timmins i as business manager and McDowell as property manager did a magnificent job behind the scenes. Both the art work under the able direction of Mr. Key, and the lighting, especially in the last scene, were par- ticularly effective. The stage was again resplendent in burlap sacks-this the work of Mr. Maier and his stage crew. The presentation of the play was excellent and the acting noteworthy, but in all fairness it should be said that the choice of the play was not, perhaps, a wise one. Such a serious drama with an all-pervading religious theme is not entirely suitable, considering the youthful audience for whom it was presented. But the entire Dramatic Society are to be heartily congratulated on a very memorable performance by every- one connected with the play. All their efforts were cer- tainly rewarded with great success.

' THE SIGNPOST CAny resemblance between the characters in this episode and any one living or half dead is, in some cases. purely coincidental! The room oozed with tradition. The large circular oaken table, surrounded by its six polished straight-backed chairs, seemed prepared for some momentous event. Even the intricately carved antique wall panels seemed to have an extra gleam upon them on this day. Everything was prepared for the meeting, the eighty-second annual meet- ing of the executive editorial committee of the Tillbury College for Gentlemen's magazine, the Signpost. Finally the designated hour for the gathering, seven o'clock, arrived. Nine and one-half minutes later Percival Underwood, School News Editor, trudged into the room. This big bearded, uncouth boy gently plopped onto one of the chairs, leaned back on it, firmly placed his feet on the table, pulled out a tattered news magazine and proceeded to pore over it. After a few seconds a large pair of horn- rimmed glasses followed by the small eager business manager sneaked into the room. Richard Stinky San- dalwood, as this specimen was named, meticulously picked out a chair, carefully sat on it and remained rigidly sitting on it for the rest of the meeting. Almost immediately three other distinguished committee members strode ing 35 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD they were the ivory-tower-dwelling Literary Editor, Lance- lot Murkygrove, the plodding Sports Editor, Robert Marble, and the Editor-in-Chief, George Mousington, Who, in later life, would undoubtedly make an excellent hen-peeked husband. At last, when everyone was seated, the advising mas- ter. Mr. Bank Mounte, M.A., A.F.S., jogged in and burst out with, Well, are we all here? That's good. Well, you know what we are here for, it is time to get out the annual that we have all worked on so hard during the year. First we will see what the Literary section has drug up this year. But, of course, it is up to Mr. Editor-in-Chief to tell us what to do, as after all, I am only here to advise and give hints. Don't snicker, Percy, that was not a joke. Well, Mr. Editor-in-Chief. George went as far as I think before being inter- rupted by Lancelot, who commenced murmuring, he mur- mured, Sir, I think that we have a rather exceptional literary section this year. Instead o-f the usual school line of humour and adventure stories we have psychological stories filled with complexed people, and we have three and one-half incomprehensible poems by myself. Are they morbid '? demanded Percy in the firm tone he used on his news staff. Naturally, answered Lancelot in a puzzled tone. Ahem! put in the Sports Editor Robert, I think that, with all due consideration for Lancelot, and taking into account all possible favorable factors and all possible unfavorable factors and making proper allowance for the standards required of a Tillbury magazine, that Uh! What was I saying? Oh yes! That one of my firmest and most fundamental beliefs is that morbidness must go. I don't think our advertisers like poems. They hate culture, piped up Stinky. Besides, stated Mr. Mounte, I do not think that the boys like too many morbid stories. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 Well, that settles that, remarked Percy, so 1-:t's move on to another section. I think that we might try the School News next, said Mr. Mounte, but of course that is up to Mr. Editor- in-Chief. Percy, being a realist, commenced talking before George had a chance to speak: Well, sir, not really much has happened around here this year. Not anything that would interest the School and I have been very busy this year. Homework does take so much time. I had four or five write-ups, but one was vulgar, several were childish, and anyway, I lost them. I really worked very hard, but . . . Yes! interjected Mr. Mounte, We all know your strenuous methods of working. We will now move on to the Sports Editor, if George doesn't mind. George did not. Robert proceeded as though he were a prominent poli- tician, gurgling forth a pompous pronouncement: Sir, and fellow Tillbury editors, the sports staff feels certain, I might even say positive, that we will make up for any negligence or neglect by other parts of the Signpost staff. The season in sports has not been eminently successful or very felicitous this year. In fact, we have not won a game yetg but, even so, our write-ups have been skilfully devised. Allow me to read you a typical write-up' of a football game between our noble Juniors and the Farmersville Infants: 'The Tillbury Junior Team started the game against the Farmersville Infants with several severe handicaps, the Farmersville lads had the advantage of being smaller and hence faster, the Tillbury boys were demoralized because they knew they could not win their league, as twelve mem- bers of their starting line were over-ageg the Tillbury star waterboy was in the hospital with a ruinous attack of hiccoughs. In spite of all this the Tillbury boys fought hard and the score, 72 to 3, was really no indication of the play! There can be no doubt as to the excellence of 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD such work. Can anyone find anything wrong with that? Most of our advertisers come from Farmersville, and they might take objection, was Stinky's contribution to the conversation. Mr. Mounte, remembering that he had not said any- thing for some time, declared, If the Old Boys found that the teams had not won any games this year they might not contribute to the fund for aged masters, therefore,,I think that we will have to eliminate the sports section this year, providing the Editor-in-Chief does not mind. That means that We can leave ? asked George. Yes, said Mr. Moimte. The six stood up and silently filed out of the tradi- tion-encrusted chamber. The eighty-second annual meet- ing of the executive editorial committee of the Tillbury College for Gentlemen's magazine, the Signpost, was ended, and thus, for the eighty-second consecutive time the Sign- post failed to appear, or, to quote the Signpost's motto, Oh Well! Next year. -D. W. Fulford, VI Sch. SONNET IOF A RADIO OPERATOR To-day I held the wide World in my hand, Space rolled away and Denmark's sun was low, As Niel came in from Copenhagen on the band.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 IN THE HOTEL LOBBY We were sitting in the lobby, when a clean-shaven, rather intelligent looking Jewish lad of about twenty-five walked up to our circle and sat down among us. I think Yule was just mentioning the terrible time his latest client had had because her son had shot her daughter, and being a Widow she was left Without support, when the youth interrupted with ..... Sorrow's sent to try us, sir. Well, we looked at this boy and wondered, and then went on talking about other interesting criminal cases, and how the errors of one had caused the downfall of others, when the lad again tried to enter into the conversa- tion with: To err is human, to forgive divine. At this point, not knowing what he was going to come out with next, I turned and introduced myself, and asked who he was. To this he promptly answered without the blink of an eye-lid, I am Jesus Christ. Now we had been sure before that the man was either a travelling Salvation Army salesman or a raving maniac, but with these words, we were certain of the latter, and we decided that we had better humour him till his keeper from the sanatarium arrived. However, believe it or not, his guard never did arrive and he became more and more convinced that he was Jesus, and almost had us following as his disciples. CNigel Shoemaker says to this day that he never felt more apolo- getic to doubting Thomas, who believed when he saw.J We found the situation amusing at Hrst, then a trifle boring and finally a dreadful nuisanceg so not knowing quite what to do next, Harvey Went out for the police, but they, like Pontius Pilate, said they could not arrest a man just be- cause he said he was Jesus Christ. When the medical staff arrived and proclaimed Mr. Christ all right, it seemed a fairly good spot for a parable and as there were quite a number of people gathered there, -if TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD as you might well imagine, our good friend gave forth up- on an almost divine topic, taking as his text: Forgive them, Lord, for they know not who I am. Seeing that this fellow was perfectly sane, and possessed of a fairly sound train of thought, Harvey told him quietly that he was pleased to meet such a sincere man, and that it was extremely interesting to hear him talk, but that he really must stop calling himself Jesus Christ. But Mr. Christ still insisted on being Mr. Christ, and neither the wise persuasive words of Harvey Yule, nor the pleading argu- mentative speech of Nigel Shoemaker, no, not 'even the gentle re-assuring bleat of myself, would change this man's attitude towards himself. And so went forth a true citizen, a worthy sincere Jew, to be condemned and later probably to be killed by a group of insane hypocrites. Yes, and when I say hypo- crites, that is all we were, and that is all we are. Gentlemen, it may be that you consider this whole topic a trifle sacriligious. It may be that you consider it a stretch of the rather abstract imagination which pro- duced it. But my friends, there is the coming of our Lord, as I see it, today. We who are so well educated, we who are so broad- minded, we who are so righteous, we would not treat our long awaited Messiah as the damnable Jews, of nineteen hundred and forty-eight years ago did! And yet put your- self in the position of one of us in the hotel lobby, and what would you do if a man came up to you and introduced himself as Jesus Christ? And yet to-day we persecute, we excommunicateg we look down on the men who crucified their Messiah. And so we are hypocrites. We stand a prejudiced race, pre- judjced unjustly against a race, who once made a mistake that we so easily could have made, and left them under a shadow, to be outcast from all other races. So to the people who consider themselves superior, to the people who think that they would have believed that TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the son of God was with us, and to those who make it hard for the Jews, put the question to yourself, and put the question to your friends, What would I do, if an ordinary looking Jew sat beside me and said: . . . 'I am Jesus Christi -A. K. Paterson, VA. AND AFTER THIS Lord, grant me the strength To be myself, Nor let my day's wanderings cease At some inopportune moment Or in some unaccustomed place, Lest I drown, Drown in the empty well That is my way. For I am weak .... I look out of the window Circumspectg And watch my neighbour Wend his Way, between hope, fear, lRegard the mote there in his eyel, Between the eternal mountains, destitute. And I myself often between passion and remorse, Stuck on the horn between terror and aspiration, Sit alone and astounded.

M. Taylor, VI Sch if TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 A PHANTASY-THE INVISIBLE MAN Love may be a poison or an antidote-it may imbue the weak with happiness and strength or change a desire for all that is good and noble into a mad craving-a lust which no amount of hatefulness or cruelty is able to alleviate. Igor loved with a soul-consuming passion, and, when that soul became infested with evil, Igor killed and died under its control. The Konivs were American citizens, their name was foreign and their son had Asiatic features-therefore their son was a cursed Red. Ignor knew that he was an out- cast, but being ostracized from a society in which all was superficial did not cause any heartbreak to him, for this dark youth, with the finely wrought profile, was a scien- tist. He was not, however, one of those men whose whole life is a nucleus of science forming a barrier against any- thing remote from this chosen scope-no, he was a man, with a man's wants. Consequently Igor fell deeply, oh so deeply, in love. Marianne was as delicately beautiful as a Ming vase -she was equally as empty. Her whole self was a pair of vivacious eyes, full laughing lips, and a continuous pat- ter, which seemed to young Koniv as effervescent as his was somnambulistic. He took her to dinner, to the theatre -he kissed her, and then he asked her to marry him. The laughter did not seem so lilting-her refusal closed the door on Igor's hopes and youth died within him, leaving a cavern filled with a foaming hate for the girl he had so Ncently desired-that hate which springs from a trained mind, all the more intense for its virginal quality. In the laboratory this victim of 1ove's waywardness found consolation, and this smouldering idea of revenge changed his previously high intellect into genius. There were certain chemicals, he knew, that would form a type of fungus on the body so that it would become invisible to the human eye, and the fates willed Igor Koniv to discover 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD this potent mixture. One day a watery but somewhat jelly-like substance was poured into the Koniv's bath tub, a young man stepped into it, his flesh was seared with the acid, and then there was nothing-nothing. Marianne, with one of her train, was sitting on her front porch dreamily absorbing the delight of the crickets' music and realizing that hers was a very happy life. Sud- denly her escort moved forward and complained of some- thing pricking his shoulder like a tiny needle. Then his neck muscles tightened as his lungs battled for air-his head collapsed on Marianne's lap and the once loving eyes telegraphed the condition of their owner. The girl, as the doe fleeing the hunter, leapt to her feet and shrieking with the abandon of her youth rushed into the house and fell in a deathly coma at the foot of the stairs. An invisible hand turned her over and invisible eyes twinkled in mad merriment and satisfaction. Igor was insane-the poison of his hate was infectious. The young recover easily from even the saddest event and the death of her suitor, from a cause no doctor could detect, did not have a lasting effect. Thus less than a year later, Marianne, beautiful and radiant, was taking her place in front of the minister, feeling herself slowly be- coming encased in happiness and security, as the kindly man droned on .... let him speak now or forever hold his peace. The bridegroom clutched at hands he could not see as they methodically stole away his life. His face became a ghastly purple, the eyeballs strained, his blue tongue protruded as, with a sickening gurgle he fell, lay still and died. Marianne became convulsed with laughter and rolled hysterically upon the chapel floor-the pastor spoke the most sincere prayer of his life-a door opened and closed,-Igor stepped onto the street. Marianne died in an asylum-suicide claimed her mother. To Igor, death came almost too easily-he simply disintegrated! A passionless death for such an impas- sioned killer. -L- D- Rhea, VI Sch- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41' DO WE APPRECIATE MUSIC? Classical Music At a boarding school like T.C.S. we have every chance to learn to appreciate good music. Every few weeks we have at the School some of the best musicians in the coun- try to give concerts, but unfortunately, there are still a great number of people who cannot understand or enjoy classical music: they can only be satisfied with the mass- production, meaningless, simple dance tunes that anyone can whistle. When they hear a concert they immediately think that it is simply a lot of long hair stuff , and make fun of it. Everyone is like that until he learns how to listen to classical music. One of the best Ways to enjoy classical music is for one to picture some scene in one's mind and to let the music fit into the picture. For instance, the first composition I really enjoyed was Tschaikowsky's first piano concerto. As I listened, I pictured a trout stream in the north country and I could actually hear the water babbling over the stones and the lofty, swaying pines screaming at the wind. Suddenly a dead branch breaks from a tree and crashes to the ground, sending the little animals helter-skelter in every direction. All this I could hear and distinguish as clearly as if I'd been sitting on the bank of that very stream with my eyes closed. It may be that when he composed this, Tschaikowsky was thinking of snow falling in a public park in Moscow but, amazing as it may seem, it fits in equally vividly with a picture of the trout stream or deer scampering about in the forest. This is the kind of music one can listen to and enjoy any num- ber of times, for each time one hears it one receives a dif- ferent picture. It might be likened to a sight-seeing tour or a walk in the country. The so-called popular music is simply a beat with a covering or a tune. You hear this one little time for a week or two and get tired of it. Then they change the 48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD covering and we get another one for another few weeks. Occasionally the song writers change the beat or rhythm and the tune may be popular for a month or more. It is true that this type of music does have a peculiar fascina- tion, and provides us with the excellent entertainment of dancing. I won't try to go into the realm of jazz as there are so many views on it, but there is a way to enjoy every kind of music and he who finds this secret is extremely fortunate for he has furthered his knowledge and found an excellent means of entertainment. -D. I. F. Lawson, VA. Jazz One of the greatest misinterpretations in the world today is in the field of modern music. Modern music in this instance refers to the non-classical or popular type of music which has arisen during the present century. The average listener classes all music of this type as Jazz . He is wrong. In a survey conducted last year in the United States, it was found that out of two thousand major orchestras in the nation, only fourteen of the group played true jazz. The remaining number were merely dance- bands organized to make money by supplying the public with some cheap entertainment. You may ask what the difference it. Jazz is played to be listened to-g not to be danced to, or as a background for conversation. It should have just as much attention as a symphony. From its humble beginnings in the negro centre of Basin Street, Jazz has arisen to a fine art, appreciated by very few. In a vibrant bass you may find the negro's superstitiong in a shrieking trumpet, a wail of despairg in the rattle of a beating drum, the complexity of modern civilization. As a melody progresses, the music reaches a climax. This is accomplished by using a great deal of brass with the beat in the background constantly TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 growing in volume. At the same time the listener feels a building tension. Suddenly, a crash of cymbals or a sharp, brassy discord releases the listener's emotions and the piece ends. There are great names in the field of Jazz, as in any other field. Such men as Duke Ellington, Barney Bigard, Louis Armstrong, Eddy Sufranski, Charlie Shavers, Eddy Condon, Bunny Berrigan, Jack Teagarden, Fats Waller, and Vido Musso are some of the greatest exponents of this music. A young enthusiast, Stan Kenton, has assumed the job of keeping jazz in pace with the modern world. In his original interpretations may be found traces of the classics mixed with a blaring brass section. greater in number than that of the New York Philharmonic. Kenton has pro- duced something entirely new in the Jazz field which will act as a guide for his contemporary artists in the future. There appears to be a rosy future in store for Jazz if the listener retains his present attitude. Jazz is ex- periencing a definite revival in the world. Its record sales more than doubled in 1947. At K6HtO1l,S recent concert at Carnegie Hall, more tickets were sold than ever before in the Hall's history. Jazz has a wide audience. King George VI is reputed to have a large collection of Duke Ellington records and to be one of his most avid admirers. With interest everywhere such as this, Jazz should reach its height in a short time. However, success will only come if Jazz can be isolated from the popular dance-music of today and be retained as an exclusive music of a culture. The only way to do this is to educate the listening audience so that a line may be drawn between the two groups. Jazz should not be pol- luted with any other type of music. Jazz is the modern music for a modern world. -C. J. Bermingham, VA. 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SOCIALIZED MEDICINE FOR CANADA? Socialized Medicine has been discussed for some time in this country. Reports have been submitted and plans proposed only to be shelved indefinitely. Now that it seems likely a bill establishing absolute Socialized Medicine will soon become law in England and Wales, it is time we examined seriously the need for such a system and what it offers, for it is probable that a concerted effort will soon be made to establish it in Canada. The basis of our national welfare, security and econo- mic development is a healthy populace. If we are to be in a position to defend ourselves against aggression, and if we are to maintain our industry at its greatest efficiency, to say nothing of promoting individual happiness and well- being, the health standards of the country as a whole must be greatly raised. At the present time the extent of medical care in this country is based not upon need but upon ability to pay. The consequence is that a large proportion of the popula- tion is not receiving adequate medical care. It is this group which is increasing more rapidly than any other part of the population, hence we have an ever-expanding bloc whose health standards are dangerously low. There can be only one conclusion drawn: realizing the necessity for complete and adequate medical care, the care for the poor must be financed by those who can afford to pay. The plans suggested for Canada would divide the financing of medical services between the federal and provincial govern- ments, a system fatal to the aim of Socialized Medicine, which is designed to benefit all citizens of the country equally. The poorer provinces must have facilities equal to those of the wealthier provinces, hence the financing must be done from a single source, the Federal Govern- ment. The lack of sufficient facilities for the poor and for the inhabitants of rural areas is evident from surveys made TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 by reliable authorities. A report made in 1941 by the Department of Education for Ontario of the Ontario Pub- lic and Separate Schools showed that while eighty-seven per cent of urban school children were given medical ex- aminations, only twenty-seven per cent of rural school children received this service. The same authority re- veals that of those discovered in 1941 to be suffering from physical defects, thirty-two percent in urban areas had those defects corrected, while twenty-three per cent in rural areas received treatment. The Department of Public Health for Toronto in a survey made in 1943 found that in the Yorkville district, comprising the better class homes of the city, the T.B. rate per hundred thousand population was 17.9, while in the Moss Park district. including the less prosperous families, the rate was 66.8. There can be no doubt that there is great need for better health services in these areas. The desirability of medical insurance, privately spon- sored. is supported by associations of doctors and hos- pitals, the Worst enemies of Socialized Medicine. Un- doubtedly private health insurance schemes are beneficial. However, at the present their cost is prohibitive to nation- wide participation and the scope of their services is limited to certain aspects of corrective, but not preventive, treat- ment. Private medical insurance is then of limited value to the more prosperous citizens and of no help at all to those who need medical care the most-the poor. Together with the private schemes We have, of course, certain health services provided by both federal and pro- vincial departments of health. The former is occupied chiefly with the enforcement of food and drug laws, in providing adequate sanitary facilities, and in attempting, through publicity, to encourage healthy living. The pro- vincial departments are rather more concerned with the health of the individual. but their services are totally in- adequate. In 1938 the Canadian Public Health Association found that about fifty per cent of the population of Canada TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD was served by full-time public health services, and a more recent survey by the Medical Procurement and Assignment Board reports the situation little changed. The previously quoted statistics with regard to the treatment of defective school children shows equally well that public health ser- vices are failing in their duty to maintain high health sta.ndards. There is, then, a large proportion of the population which needs better medical care, and existing facilities are limited in scope and not universally available. A system of socialized medicine, as that proposed for England and Wales, would provide, freely, all necessary medical services to every citizen of the country. The plan would be administered by the Minister of Health, Who, with an advisory council, would have direct control over the national aspects of the scheme, while the administra- tion of local health centres would be undertaken by coun- cils composed half of local authorities and half of physi- cians. Not only would medical services be Within the reach of all, but free treatment Would encourage the reporting of illness and universal medical examinations would insure the detection of defects. Medical research would be uni- fied and backed by unlimited iinancial resources. The country would be divided into sectors on a basis of population and a panel of doctors would be assigned to each sector. The people of the area would have the oppor- tunity to select one of the panel as personal family doctor, and the latter would be paid a basic salary plus a capita- tion fee for each patient selecting him as family doctor. In this way the individual is not deprived entirely of a choice in his doctor, and the doctor is encouraged to keep his charges in good health, since the healthier they are the more he will be able to take on. This encourages preven- tive medicine. The personal relation between the physi- cian and the individual is maintained and the doctor, if he is capable, acquires a good reputation and is assured of as many patients as he can handle. The doctor is assured TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 of a wage, he need not waste time trying to collect, and he can devote most of his time to those who need him most, rather than to those who contribute most to his financial support. He is encouraged to work in rural areas which at present are deprived of sufficient care because there is not enough money in them. The assurance of a basic wage should more than offset the tendency for wealthier physi- cians to leave for more profitable countries, by encouraging young graduates to remain in Canada, and stemming the present exodus of these valuable doctors. The charge that doctors would be dictated to is false. A doctor would be free to apply for any position which happened to be open. as a teacher is now. Granted the plan would curtail the earnings of the more wealthy doctors, it would encourage the less well off. In any case the system is intended for the benefit of the people as a Whole, and not for a single group. The two great drawbacks to the scheme are the danger of medical services becoming a political football, and the fact that any socialist measure such as this entails the relinquishing of certain basic personal rights and freedom in exchange for security and protection. The first danger is typical of all government services and can be overcome only through development of a sounder system of govern- ment or by a radical change in the type of politician who governs the country. The second drawback is the more serious. It is not to the general good of the people to sacrifice their rights and freedom, but the need for better medical care is a most pressing one and there is no other solution to the problem. It is to be hoped that eventually we shall find a system which will provide the necessary security and protection Without this sacrifice, but until that time the state of the country demands action and the only course open to us is Socialized Medicine. -J.

In fact, there was so much activity that there has been talk of more intra-mural sports instead of so many games with other schools. This would lessen the number of trips without affecting the number of boys taking part in each sport. Like last year, iive hockey teams were in operation, to say nothing of the Rabbit League, two bas- ketball and two swimming teams. On top of that there was also a squash team, a skiing team and a gym. team. We wish to take this opportunity to congratulate all these teams on their fine showing this year, but we should like especially to congratulate Bigside basketball. Under the leadership of Rick Gaunt this year's squad proved itself to be one of the best in the history of the School. Over- coming a rather inauspicious start, they gathered steam as they went along and finished the regular season as Prep School Champions. Best congratulations, Bigside! Once again the cricket season is in full swing. Gaunt has been elected captain of Bigside and Jerry Paterson is vice-captain. With these two being the only colours left from last year's championship team, this year's squad must be chosen almost from scratch. As usual Mr. Lewis has taken over the coaching duties and Mr. Harold Wilson is going to assist him. Over on the Middleside pitch we hear hoarse cries of Look out, you fathead! as Mr. Gwynne-Timothy tries to whip his baseball players into shape. This year he is being helped by Mr. Hett and Mr. Bishop. Mr. Bagley and Mr. Dening are coaching Littleside, which has been split into two parts, Littleside A and B. Littleside A seems to be made up mainly of ex-J.S. boys and should be a strong team this year. Track is again being coached by Mr. Armstrong assist- ed by Mr. Hass. They have been greeted by a fair turn- out this year. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 More boys than ever before are playing tennis this spring. Due to the congestion, the courts have been rationed so that no one boy can put his name down for more than two courts a week. In order to further relieve the problem two grass courts are being put up on the terrace directly in front of the Memorial Cross. The sport is under the direction of Mr. Humble, with Goodbody the Prefect in charge. There was some discussion of forming a tennis team this year but this was discarded for two main reasons. The first was that there are already too many sports activities in the School, the second that many people thought that there should be at least one game to be played for the sake of enjoyment and not with the idea of getting on a team foremost in one's mind. There are the usual tournaments this year, of course, and already a doubles tournament is well on its way towards completion. Altogether, it looks like a very busy sports term. With three cricket sides, a track team and more than fifty boys playing tennis there is certainly no lack of activities. It is to be hoped that they will not interfere with the academic side of School life, especially with the final exams this term. Following our own advice, we have just spent the last two hours in feverish study, and here you see the result. Well, to quote a famous saying, We must get back to our muttons and do some work. What's that? 10.15? Where's that alarm clock! -O.R.M. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q O 5.- 7 X -ft' X i '.,,d f u ci S kelly ci I I IMPRESSION S OF THE BASKETBALL COACH The Sports Editor is a traditionalist-a great shame in one so young. He should let his conservativism creep up on him slowly, but no, he insists, among other things, that no issue of the Record can go to press Without im- pressions from the coach . It matters not that the coach has no distinct impressions, is more concerned, now the season's over, with the shape of things to come, is busy setting exams and marking papers-to say nothing of those Ganaraska trout which do demand some attention these bright May days-the editor must have his impressions . My first impression is that the Sports Editor will agree that these impressions are not Worth the effort he has put forth to get them. After being pursued for more than two Weeks, I fled all the Way to Boston last week-end to escape the tenacious Macklem i. To no avail, for print- ing difficulties postponed the dead-line date and now neces- sitate my finally, reluctantly, gropingly putting pen to the impressions of a coach. Gaunt summed up my thoughts on this matter at the Hockey and Basketball dinner when he innocently-to give him the benefit of the doubt-opened his remarks with now that everyone has said all the nice things they should say . This being so, I am going to submit this space-filling effort to the Sports Editor only on the con- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 dition that he puts a written statement into the June Record giving his department's reasons for insisting that all the nice things be re-said and re-written so many times. so long after a season is over. As everyone knows, we had good players, good spirit and team-play, a good captain, good luck and good travel- ling companions on those long wintry trips to such out- landish places as Montreal, Toronto and Aurora-snuggling up with the hockey team in the warmth of a big bus was a lot better than those frigid and lonely trips in the un- predictable Port Hope taxis, as in previous years. I very definitely feel that the double schedule in hockey and basketball had many advantages and hope that this arrangement may continue. We enjoyed playing against other private schools and found ourselves in a league more or less in keeping with our calibre of play. We will always be outclassed by the larger collegiates who play better ball than do the Prep Schools, for a variety of reasons fwitness Peterborough and Western Tech.J However, this year's team has set a high standard in the Prep School Group for future T.C.S. teams to maintain.

In Toronto, March 17: Lost 50-31 In the hrst game of a two game total points, series for the Wren Cup, Bigside was defeated by Western Tech 50-31. Western proved to be the better team by virtue of their fine passing and defensive work, and fully deserved their Win. The game was rather slow, as the School played a tight checking game in the 'first half, but in the second half, play speeded up considerably as Western dominated. The School started strongly in the 'drst quarter and made every opportunity count, to score nine points before Western managed to score their first point. The remainder of the quarter was very even and it ended with T.C.S. leading 14-5. The School suffered quite a loss when Gaunt was lost to the team for the remainder of the game, due to fouls. The second quarter was completely dominated by Western Tech as their excellent ball-handling began to tell. Although completely outplayed, T.C.S. led 14-12 at half-time. Play speeded up considerably in the third quarter and again Western completely dominated the play as they baffled the School by their speed and accuracy in shooting. The School seemed to collapse, and Western, led by Kara- bin and Atkinson, took advantage of this to build up a commanding lead. The score at the end of the third quar- ter was 31-15 for Western. T.C.S. began to show some fight in the fourth quar- ter, and led by Rogers' accurate bucket shooting, cut the lead of their rivals. From then on, play remained very even as the two teams pretty well matched point for point. However, Western proved to be much the better team in this game and were full value for their 50-31 win which gave them a nineteen point lead in the total-point series. Karabin with 16 points and Atkinson with 13 stood out for the winners, while Rogers with 13 points was top scorer for the School.

At Port Hope, March 29: Lost 57-40 In the last basketball game of the season, Western Tech trounced the School 57-40 to win the Toronto and District Championship by 107 -7 1, in a two game total point series. Before probably the biggest crowd ever to watch a basketball game at T.C.S., the deciding contest of the championship with Western Tech got away to a slow start. Led by Karabin and displaying superior ball-handling and rebounding, Western Tech took a 13-6 advantage in the first quarter. Showing a reversal of form, the School, be- hind some good play of Gaunt, came back to trail by only two points, 20-18 as the half ended. Throughout, the alert defensive play and good passing plays of the Toronto team kept Trinity from many scoring chances, while they out- shot the School 2-1. From the outset of the second half Western Tech was never in trouble, as the Trinity attack bogged down and the defense had some serious lapses. Although the School was only behind by 32-28 at the end of the third period, the final few minutes saw Karabin's thirteen points sew up the game and the championship for Western Tech. This whole half featured the superb passing plays and the heads-up defensive work of the Western Tech team. Many times their stellar forward line broke away from their checks. going under the basket alone to score. The superior play in all departments, especially the offensive and defensive rebounding, showed Western Tech worthy champions. The School put up a good fight, but could not threaten the powerful Toronto team. 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Wilkes and Karabin were outstanding for Western Tech, while Atkinson played well. For the School, Gaunt and Wismer were best. . In post-game ceremonies Mr. Ketchum presented the Wren Cup, symbolic of the championship, to the winners.

BIGSIDE HOUSE GAME ' March 23, 1948, Bethune 35, Brent 32 No sports season, no matter how long or successful, is quite complete without a house game. Bigside Basket- ba11's 1948 season was both long and successful, but the annual house game went on as usual. i The squad was divided slightly in Brent's favour as the game got underway, but Bethune was fortified with two members of the Junior team. The contest was close throughout, although both houses showed a slight lack of polish in their plays. The score was therefore kept low, with Bethune hanging on to a slim margin of points. The score was 15-13 in Bethune's favor at the half, as Wismer led Brent with three baskets and Rogers snagged three for Bethune. The contest opened up more in the last half and Wismer and Gaunt kept Brent close on Bethune's heels, tying the score at one time, but Bethune managed to main- tain a slim majority. The game ended 35-32 in favour of Mr. Bag1ey's boys. Wismer's shooting and Gaunt's all-round play, as well as Sweny's checking, shone for the Scottsmen while Rogers, Hoffman and Greenwood played well for the victors.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 DISTINCTION CAP A Distinction Cap in Basketball has been awarded this year to R. H. Gaunt, the captain. This was his second year as captain of the first team, and not only did he do a fine job of leading his team to the Prep School Cham- pionship, but he was the defensive backbone of the team. Always a scoring threat as well, he was an exceptional guard and undoubtedly one of the best all-round players the School has ever had.

As usual, the competitors were marked by the two housemasters, Mr. Scott and Mr. Bagley. Half marks were taken off for poor approach and retreat, while a fall at the end of an exercise meant the loss of a full point. The rest of the marks Went for the exercise themselves. Exercises were performed on the horizontal bar, parallel bars, box horse, pommel horse and mats in that order. McDowell came 'drst with 219.5 out of a possible 225, closely followed by Thompson i with 215.5. Dignam over- came a bad start, edging out Welsford for third place with 210 points to Welsford's 208. Dignam had a close shave on the very first exercise on the horizontal bar. This exercise ended with a jump between the hands, and as he went over the top -of the bar, his foot caught. A gasp Went up from the onlookers as he fell, but fortunately he was not injured. McDowell's Work was flawless except for a few minor mistakes and he was well worth his win. Thompson was particularly spectacular on the box horse, going high in the air to do his dives and flips. Besides those already mentioned, Bigside Gym. colors were won by Panet, Cox, and Hughes. The competition was well worth seeing, providing an hour's ' good entertainment and excitement. On the Whole it was a very good show and maintained the high standard of gym. reached in previous years.

ONTARIO SCHOOLBOY GYMNASTIC CHAMPIONSHIPS Hart House, March 29, 1948 Four of our first gymnasts, McDowell, Thompson i, Dignam and Welsford, represented T.C.S. at Hart House for the Ontario Schoolboy Gymnastic Championships along with six other Ontario schools. They did exceptionally well by coming second, only eleven points behind the win- ners and definitely maintained the high standard of gym at T.C.S. However, it should not be omitted that Ottawa Tech, which came Hrst, deserves full credit for their out- standing performance. The competitors were judged for their work on the horizontal bar, parallel bars, pommel horse and mats. Mc- Dowell came first on the ,pommel horse and second on the high bar while Welsford came third on the parallel bars and Dignam third on the mats. Taking the performers all together, McDowell 18771 came third, Dignam C8501 fifth, Welsford C8445 sixth and Thompson C8315 seventh. It was a very satisfactory performance as far as the spectators were concerned and it could be easily seen that a lot of work was put into the preparation for the competition.

On Saturday, April 7, at Hart House, Toronto, Ridley College splashed their way to an almost clean sweep of the Little Big Four swimming meet. The Ridley swim- mers won six of the seven events and ran up four new records. The School came second showing some very good swimming, with Rogers taking the only event not taken by Ridley, the 50 yards back stroke. Maclaren also came 'drst in the 50 yards breast stroke, breaking the record, but was disqualified. Gibson of Ridley was the biggest point gainer of the meet, taking both the 100 and 200 yards free style events, and bettering the old 200 yard record by fourteen seconds.

One can only conclude from this that the weather has been normal for this season and that it is we who annually expect too much from it! ! The Inter-House swimming meet which was introduced for the first time this year went off well and We hope to make it an annual event from now on. The Tennis Tournament has once more got under way with a very large entry of forty-one boys. The general standard of play seems to be higher than usual and the semi-finals and final should be very closely contested. Our sincere thanks to Mr. Norman Kelk for his kind and timely gift of practice balls for cricket and also to Mr. Cohu for his presentation of a number of books to the Library shelves. Belated but nevertheless sincere congratulations from all at the J.S. to Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong on the birth of Sally Elizabeth. NEW TROPHIES Two new trophies have been presented to the Junior School this term by members of the Staff. Dr. R. McDerment has given a silver cup which is to be known as The Captains' Cup . The names of the Captains of Rugby, Hockey, and Cricket will be inscribed on this cup each year and it will in this Way serve as a permanent record of our captains. Mrs. Cecil Moore has given us a swimming trophy which is to be used for Inter-House competition. We are very grateful indeed to both donors for their kind thought in presenting these trophies to us and can 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD assure them that they will be greatly prized by the Junior School. THIS NIGHT Behold, there is a man walks blindly forth In a black night. Sets for the Rising Sung Yea, with no course, sets for the Dawn. Is't north, Or south, or east, or west? He knows the One, But it is deeply hid by clouds and trees Of sorrow, forced oblivion, sin's deeds. No lantern guides his feet. The Light, in seas Of Morning, lies but where repentance leads. Lo, Dawn came once, in glory'd fire, and man Did hark triumphant to revealing raysg But as the Morn did start, dark too began, S And now is night. O Dawn make short night's phase! As surely as Thou said, I Come again, Hasten Thy coming reign on earth. Amen. -R. J. Anderson, Form IIA. MAN OVERBOARD! The boom flung itself over and the small sail flapped wildly as the little fourteen-foot dinghy came about. Spray leaped from the bow, the cream-coloured sail filled and billowed again as the boat straightened out and resumed its job of tacking up the lake. As the wind strengthened, the boat heeled over to starboard, and I ordered my brother up on the port deck beside me. My brother and I, the only occupants of the small boat, were sailing up to the north end of the lake to look at a camp-site. Suddenly, the lapping water which before had stayed just below the gunwale came up over the deck and swirled about the coaming. I let out the sheet with a jerk and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 the boat righted itself. When the squall was over, I pulled the sail in again so that we were once more sailing close- hauled. About this time, a lull in the wind occurred and the boat began to heel dangerously portward, caused by our combined weights on that side. Before I could order my brother over to starboard, I had that queer, unmistakable feeling that something was going to go wrong. I knew too. that we were about to jibe. And jibe we did. I don't know how it happened but there was the gaff quivering and the boom going up, over and down. I jammed the tiller away from me hurriedly and we headed up into the wind for inspection. Looking around for my brother, I discovered that he was gone, and at that same instant, saw a dark head appearing sternward. Fortunately, the boat had a long sheet-rope, and this I heaved to him. He managed to catch hold and I got him on board. As he sat shivering on the floor-boards, I inspected the canvas and found it still intact. Ready about! and we were running free towards home. --E. L. Clarke, Form IIA. -i- COURAGE He stands in fear and trembling for his life, But yet he stands, stubborn and unyielding. The harsh command, the angry shot, the unreined strife, All try his courage, but he stands sword wielding. Why not flee? The easiest way lies open, His friends around him die with woimds. He thinks of honour and remains unbroken, But he is not immortal, he falls 'midst battle sounds. -R. Jackson, Form IIA. 74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD WANDER-THIRST Beyond the East the sunrise, beyond the West the sea, And between them is the Junior School, and between its walls is meg It Works in me like madness, I cannot get away, For History calls and French calls,and oh! the call of R.K. I know not what this theorem means, or what are isobars, But a boy can have a brain in his head, without knowing the three R's, There's no end of writing, when detention catches me, But Maths calls and Grammer calls, and oh!

Farmer Jones was trudging wearily back from the hay fields where he had been Working all day. His day's work was over. and as he Walked up the garden path, he felt very happy and he was very ready to go to his house and sleep. Suddenly he looked up in front of him. First he thought his mind was cracking. Two, ghostly, huge, white shapes were floating about in front of him, throwing their arms up into the air and convulsing their weird forms into many various shapes. He thought of all the stories he had heard as a kid. Surely he couldn't force himself to believe that this was some supernatural being. Next morning Mrs. Jones went out to find her hus- band. She found his rain-soaked body lying dead under the clothesline, two sheets still flapping in the wind above his still form. -H. Clark.

The birds are back from their southern climes And the world hath broken her bands of cold, 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD All these things are such wonderful signs, Yes, all are building for the young, I am told. The salmon is here, he's down in the river, He's climbing and jumping, the rumbling white walls, He's fanning and darting, there he goes with a shiver, His silver scaled sides shine through the black water's halls. The possum, the bear, the owl, yes the snake, They are all back on earth, here and awake, The fishes in the water, the birds on the wing, They're all out and here, because it is Spring. -P. S.

While the weather has curtailed our cricket activities, improvement has been shown and the team should be able to give a good account of itself. We are all anxiously awaiting the arrival of Jim Barber who did such an excellent job with last year's XI. Matches have been arranged with Lakefield, Ridley, U.C.C. and S.A.C. We had hoped to revive our fixtures with Appleby this year but were unable to find a date suitable to both schools. The Second XI has games arranged with Ridley and U.C.C. and the third XI home and home games with the Grove. .INTER-HOUSE SWIMMING MEET The first Inter-House Swimming Meet to be held in the Junior School went off very successfully.

EDITORIAL All T.C.S. people--Governors, Ladies' Guild, Old Boys, Masters, Present Boys-were deeply happy to learn of the success of the War Memorial Fund campaign. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is a large amount to be given to a small community like T.C.S., especially when one con- siders the constant claim of numerous other appeals, and our lasting gratitude goes out to those who made the cam- paign successful. It is now our earnest hope that building conditions will permit the early construction of a chapel which will be a Worthy memorial to the Old Boys who fought for us and did not return. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD More detailed reference to the campaign will be made in our October issue but We cannot let this occasion pass without mentioning Mr. Charles Burns, the Chairman of the Campaign Committee, Mr. R. P. J ellett, the Chairman of the Quebec Committee, Mr. Hugh Labatt, in charge of the campaign in Western Ontario, Mr. Peter Campbell assisted by Mr. Syd Saunders and Mr. W. M. Pearce in charge of the campaign in Toronto, which city contributed the major share of the fund. These areas have subscribed over ninety percent of the total sum raised. To Mr. Burns and all his right hand men, and to the many generous donors, the School will always be truly and humbly grate- ful. if 4? if 1 14 Because of the unprecedented increase in building costs during the past few years, the amount raised will not permit us to construct the chapel and towerpwhich the architects had planned. New drawings will be made and a committee of the Governing Body will give close and de- tailed study to all the problems involved. To those who are still considering the possibility of contributing to the fund, may we say that because of building costs every donation is still urgently needed, so far only five thousand dollars has been given to the War Memorial Endowment Fund. At the time I write this editorial, I have just finished my last exam. As Greek came at the end of the Depart- mentals this year, for several days I was the only one left at the School. How different it seemed! My last view of T.C.S. was of its beautiful ivy-covered buildings empty and deserted. The rooms which but a few short days before had seemed so full of life and humming with activity, seemed utterly and completely dead and lifeless. I don't think it has ever been so forcibly driven home to me that above all it is the people, the boys and the masters, who make the School what it really is, no matter how fine the buildings or equipment are. And my last TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 impression of T.C.S. is that the people who make up the School have blessed it with a wonderful spirit. Of course it has had its ups and downs, but I think it would be hard to find a School which could match the spirit at T.C.S. through the years. One of our masters recently visited one of the wealthy private schools south of the border and was highly im- pressed with their equipment which he reported far superior to our own. But in the general spirit that pre- vailed, between masters and boys, and amongst the boys themselves, he felt that they lacked an intangible some- thing that We had. That quality is one of the essentials in developing character and to me T.C.S. will always be a memory of the School with a great spirit. 8 Si :XS if if At the Leaving Dinner this year, held during the Upper School Exams, the Head Prefect put forward the suggestion that the Leaving Class as a whole should get together and contribute something to the School. Any such plan for encouraging the identity of a Leaving Class as a whole appears to be an excellent idea. In the Record this year, we have tried to support this trend. We had hoped to include all the Brief Biographies with portraits of the members of the Leaving Class in this August issue. There Were, however, some difficulties at the end of term and, though much of the material is completed, we shall have to put all this in the September issue. But this is a step forward and perhaps in future years the process will be completed. Leaving Classes at T.C.S. have never been 'really organized as such. Until recently there was little need for it because each leaving class amounted to little more than a dozen or so boys, and the total number of Old Boys was never large enough to make close contact difficult. Now, however, each year there are forty-five to fifty boys leav- ing and with so many Old Boys scattering all over the globe to such points as Europe, Australia and South 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD America there is a tendency for them to lose contact with each other and the School. This year, for the Hrst time, Old Boys everywhere have been asked to contribute to an Old Boysl Bursary Fund to help worthy boys continue at the School or go to the School. It is planned to make this appeal an annual one and the contributions will be listed by Leaving Classes, as they are in this issue. The response to this first appeal has been excellent but there must be hundreds of Old Boys who could easily spare a few dollars who have not re- sponded. Next year, Secretaries of each Leaving Class will be appointed or elected and they will try to obtain co- operation from a higher percentage of the boys in their own classes. Classes will hold reunions at the School and generally take a more vivid interest in each other and in School affairs. As this year's Head Prefect suggested, let the Class of 1948 be the first to make a contribution, as a class, to the well being of T.C.S. and so help the School which has done so much for us. it fl? Sl' Il? fl! Lately I have heard many complimentary remarks about various departments of this year's Record and especially about the quality of the pictures and photo- graphs. In this department, the Record this year was probably better than it has ever been, and for this, Des Bogue, our chief photographer, deserves special mention. He devoted a great deal of time and energy to producing the fine photographs we had, and has set a standard which will be hard to equal in the coming years. -R.L.W. TO THE LEAVING CLASS C Advice from a letter written by Bishop Brent to Dr. Orchard! The boys of to-day have to prepare for the heavy though inspiring responsibility of remolding society. To do this they must be highly disciplined men in soul and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 mind and body. To-day the choicest youth of the World is making the supreme sacrifice in order that mankind every- where may have freedom to live according to God's pattern of life. We are fighting for honour and truth and loyalty, without which the world is a prison house. May they always be the dominating force in the School. If boys are called upon to think and live more seriously to-day than in the past, it does not mean that life will be less enjoy- able. It will be even more so for new values will discover themselves under the pressure of the new world that is being born. The motto of my old School is a great one and I hope will live in every boy's life. The pure in heart, I suppose, means the single-hearted whose motive is unde- filed, who are unable to do the unworthy or unclean thing outwardly because they are unable to do it inwardly, who guard every avenue to mind and imagination lest it be smirched or injured. The reward is fellowship with God now and here. May God bless the School. .li- .T THE MASTER-WORD From a Speech by Sir William Osler quoted in The Life of Sir William Osler by Harvey Cushing. It seems a bounden duty on such an occasion to be honest and frank, so I propose to tell you the secret of life as I- have seen the game played, and as I have tried to play it myself. You remember in one of the Jungle Stories , that when Mowgli wished to be avenged on the villagers he could only get the help of Hathi and his sons by send- ing them the master-word. This I propose to give you in the hope, yes, the full assurance, that some of you at least will lay hold upon it to your profit. Though a little one, the master-word loooms large in meaning. It is the open sesame to every portal, the great equalizer in the world, the true philosopher's stone which transmutes all the base metal of humanity into gold. The stupid man among you it will make bright, the bright man brilliant, and the bril- liant student steady. With the magic word in your heart I 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD all things are possible, and Without it all study is vanity and vexation. The miracles of life are with it, the blind see by touch, the deaf hear with eyes, the dumb speak with fingers. To the youth it brings hope, to the middle-aged confidence, to the aged repose. True balm of hurt minds, in its presence the heart of the sorrowful is lightened and consoled. It is directly responsible for all advances in medicine during the past twenty-five centuries. Not only has it been the touchstone of progress, but it is the measure of success in everyday life. Not a man before you but is beholden to it for his position here, while he who addresses you has that honour directly in consequence of having had it graven on his heart when he was as you are to-day. And the Master-Word is WORK, a little one, as I have said, but fraught with momentous consequences if you can but Write it on the tables of your heart, and bind it upon your forehead. But there is a serious difficulty in getting you to understand the paramount importance of the Work- habit as part of your organization. You are not far from the Tom Sawyer stage with its philosophy that work con- sists of whatever a body is obliged to do, and play consists of Whatever a body is not obliged to do. - 1 , 1 lg 5.

After reminding us of the incidents of the Hrst Whitsuntide, the Chaplain drew our attention to the three thousand people converted on that day and said that the great change which happened was that they were changed from people who followed a set code of rules to ones who were willing to undertake a life guided by the Spirit. A rigid ethical code in religion brings sterility. People could not be led into a truth which was already laid down. Christianity is truth and because of this, Christians must be willing to change under the guidance of the Spirit. This guidance the Holy Spirit has given to man down the ages through the Church. Because the Church is guided by the Holy Spirit it is alive. This way proves to be more difficult than following a set system of rules, but it at least avoids the pitfalls which such a positive system entails. If man keeps all the laws he tends to become self righteous. If he breaks them, 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the greatest danger is that he will become deceitful. Yet man craves the positive rule so that he may be sure. He can never really be as sure that he is being guided by the Holy Spirit. He needs faith that the guidance of God is a reality. This, the Chaplain said, was Why he was glad to preach his last sermon of the year on Whitsunday, for he felt that the greatest need of people to-day was to realize the truth that God's Spirit was a work in the World. The greatest things of our lives, the true realities, are not the things of the mind, much less the material things. Our friendships and loves, our sorrows and joys and our highest aspirations are not facts in a material, mathematical or logical sense. He asked us to turn to the field of religion which speaks of these things. It is the Holy Spirit which guides us into all such truths. To conclude, the Chaplain reminded us that the Spirit is given to those who seek but we must seek diligently and humbly. The Light of God comes through some very dirty windows and if we are to be guided by this Light our windows must be kept free from the smears caused by pride, self-righteousness, perverseness, jealousy, greed and indulgence in Worldly pleasures of all kinds which demand all our waking attention. This can be done by prayer, the Sacrament and a seeking honest mind but most of all by a faith which outlives disappointment, a faith that God chose us out of this world and that if we hold on to the knowledge that God will lead us into all truth and abide in it. God will give unto us all that for which we honestly seek. The Memorial Service Sunday, May 30, the School held its annual Memorial Service in memory of the Old Boys that were killed in the two wars. The Rev. R. S. K. Sealey, the Provost of Trinity College, preached the sermon. He took his text from St. Pau1's Epistle to the Hebrews: Let us run the race that is before us looking unto Jesus . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 The Provost said that the soldiers of both Wars had sacrificed themselves cheerfully in an effort to bring last- ing peace to the world. Their sacrifice in the first war Was partly in vain because there was something wrong with the public mind. There were good leaders, but as they could not do anything beyond the desires of the lackadaisical public, they were unable to create a successful peace. Now it is our duty as citizens to strive for the peace. If the public wants it, the leaders will be able to arrange it. After the regular service the School filed out to the Memorial Cross Where the Headmaster read the names of the Old Boys killed in action and a wreath was placed at the foot of the cross by Mrs. Ketchum. .-..1. -... Leaving Service June 6 The guest speaker for the last regular service of the School year was the Rev. Dr. H. G. Watts who based his address which he called a small thought for those leaving on the theme Not by power, nor by might, but by My Spirit saith the Lord . Dr. Watts deplored the great emphasis on materialism Which in recent years has caused us to lose the essentials of our religion. As an example, he cited the Communist Party's destruction to a great extent of the religions of China and India through its materialistic policy. Dr. Watts also showed how to-day a great emphasis is being placed on scientific discovery. Most of the younger men leaving school tend to centre all their aims on becoming famous by some such means as scientific research. But this is not necessarily the best Way to help the world. There is only one way to peace and that is for all men to agree on a common ideal and the only ideal acceptable is Christianity. A The boys leaving , concluded Dr. Watts, should remember that their religion is their most important pos- 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD session. By cultivating it through prayer they will know that they are furthering the world cause, for God is a necessity to lasting peace and He only functions through the works of sanctified men and women. We should take as an example the Woman in the painting Rock Of Ages with one hand in the sea of humanity and the other on the Cross. The Choir at St. J0hn's On Sunday, June 6, the School Choir under the cap- able direction of Mr. Cohu took part in the Service at St. John's in Port Hope when the School Chaplain took the Service, assisted by the Rector, the Rev. A. M. Crisall. The Choir sang special settings of the 23rd Psalm and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory , two anthems, Jesu, Meek and Lowly by Sir Edward Elgar, and Let All the World in Every Corner Sing by T. Tertius Noble, and two excerpts from The Messiah , And the Glory of the Lord and The Hallelujah Chorus . Many flattering comments on the Choir's performance were made by mem- bers of the congregation. The Choir is greatly indebted to Mrs. Britton, Mrs. Briden and the Choir of St. John's for providing some wel- come refreshments in the Parish Hall after the service. ,li- 1- .i TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 mg Qchool?

ENTRANCE MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIPS In the May examinations for entrance to the Senior School this autumn, J. deB. Domville, a student at Selwyn House School, Montreal, came first, but being overage he Was not eligible for a Memorial Scholarship. He was granted a special Scholarship because of his exceptionally Well Written papers. Peter G. Martin, Ottawa, a student of the Junior School, came iirst among those eligible for Scholarships and Won the C. J. S. Bethune Memorial Scholarship of the value of 25500.00 a year for four years. C. P. R. L. Slater of St. Peter's College, Adelaide, Australia, now of London, Ontario, won the C. H. Brent Memorial Scholarship of the value of 3500.00 a year for four years. C. P. B. Taylor, Toronto, a student of the Junior School, and E. B. Newcomb of Montreal, a Selwyn House student, received honorable mention. DINNER IN HON OUR OF G. B. STRATHY On June 16 members of the Governing Body gave a complimentary dinner at the Toronto Golf Club in honour of G. B. Strathy C95-'97J who retired in January as Chair- man of the Governing Body. A set of four silver candlesticks, engraved With the School coat of arms, was presented to him as a token of the School's gratitude for all he had done on its behalf. In making the presentation, the Headmaster men- tioned the checkered history of T.C.S. and its many trials and tribulations, the move to Port Hope from Weston, the numerous problems of the early days, boys quartered in the Ward homestead, classes in the south barn, Chapel in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 a building in the town, etc., the fire of 1895, four Head- masters in four years, the War of 1914 when the enrolment dropped to eighty boys, the fire of 1928, the move to Wood- stock, the Great Depression when enrolment was cut in half, the terrible threat of bankruptcy hanging over our heads for three years. No other School in the Empire had weathered so many vicissitudes and had come through with such flying colours. The School had survived principally because of the men behind it, great men such as The Hon. G. W. Allan, J. A. Worrell, E. B. Osler, Dyce Saunders, D'Arcy Martin, C. J. Campbell, R. C. H. Cassels, Britton Osler, G. B. Strathy, and many others. Mr. Ketchum then gave some interesting facts about the early days-the whole School of 1895, with the Gym, cost 390,000-and recalled amusing stories. He Went on to outline Mr. Strathy's distinguished career at School and the University, in Law and in the First World War. He had been a member of the Governing Body thirty-three years, was our Hrst Chairman and discharged his duties most ably for ten years. He has had three sons at the School and now has two grandsons. For fifty years he had subscribed to appeals and had been a friend in need over and over again. Mr. Strathy had a remarkable facility for making a clear summary of the problem and giving a decision direct and to the point. He was a Wise counsellor, a generous friend, and a loyal and faithful son of T.C.S. In his reply Mr. Strathy said it had been a pleasure to Work for the School and a privilege to be associated with such men as surrounded him. There had been most dif- ficult days, and more were probably coming, but he felt the School was in good hands and would continue to make a valuable contribution to Canadian life. . 1 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Air Cadet Scholarships Richard S. Carson who was a Flight-Sergeant of the School's Air Cadet Squadron this year, has been selected as one of the twenty-five cadets from the Dominion who will fly the Atlantic for a three weeks' visit in Great Bri- tain in August. The programme is sponsored by the Air Cadet League of Canada and scholastic records, athletics and character, as well as Air Cadet accomplishments, were considered in making the selections. Late in July Carson will fly from his home in Calgary to Trenton, Ontario, and thence to England. We congratulate him on the honour which he has won. John dePencier, Michael Wright and Martin McDowell have been awarded flying training scholarships by the Air Cadet League of Canada and the R.C.A.F. CAir Cadetsl. These scholarships allow a month's flying training and ground school at Canadian Flying Clubs. The-re is hope that the boys may be able to acquire their private flying licenses as a result of these scholarships. 1 -i The Political Science Club The Political Science Club closed a very successful year with a meeting in the Tuck Shop on June 6. Not only was it an excellent opportunity to liquidate the Club's sur- plus funds, but it was an ideal time for a discussion of the Ontario provincial elections being held the next day. Each member of the Club was asked to prophesy the results. The Club showed itself to be conservative, for when the results came forth, everyone had overestimated the Pro- gressive Conservatives at the expense of the C.C.F. The typical club forecast was-62 PC, 12 Lib.g 12 C.C.F., 4 others, which over-estimated the Progressive Conserva- tives by about 2096 and under-estimated the C.C.F. by some 50 92. However, the Club was closer on their guess regard- ing the percentage of the electorate that would vote. The Club averaged about 62? while the actual vote was about 670. These prognostications were augmented by a general '11 s 2 Z Q E I as HQ IE D O3 v-1 O Q.-. 22 F9 .. ':- X1 PU H O o o -U 3 S ?' vi? F 'T' 'U as 3 'Y 8 D 2 S n 'P O na 'U f' ii v F' FC cu SD C 2.

This one was for all connected with the School Play Outward Bound , but members of the cricket and swimming teams were also present. At the close of the dinner Mr. Ketchum congratu- lated the Dramatic Society for the way they carried out their ambitious undertaking. Watts, the President of the Dramatic Society, and Mr. Dale, its guiding hand, followed by Hughes and Rogers, representing the swimming team, then made brief speeches, before everyone retired to their studies. The meal was excellent and Mrs. Wilkin's staH deserve hearty thanks for their efforts. Holidays May 24 was again a whole holiday this year. Since it fell on a Monday, members of the Sixth Form, and others well enough up in their studies, were permitted to enjoy a mid-term week-end at home. For those who remained at the School, the week-end was highlighted by some First Team cricket games and fireworks in the evening. The Choir holiday was held this term on Wednesday, June 2, allowing those not too busy studying to get out and enjoy the real summer weather. The previous Friday, May 28, was Sports Day, and as all the track finals were run off, it was declared a half- holiday in honour of those participating. Cricket Movies On Saturday, May 29, Mr. Lou Gunn, captain of the Toronto Cricket Club Team and an enthusiastic supporter of junior cricket, showed some movie films on cricket in 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the physics lab, for all who were interested. Mr. Gunn made a few interesting introductory remarks and then showed the films which displayed batting and bowling techniques. Shown just before the Little Big Four games, these films undoubtedly helped the surprising improve- ment in this year's First Team and we thank Mr. Gunn for bringing them here. The Leaving Dinner The Leaving Dinner was held during the Upper School exams on Friday, June 18. Col. H. R. Alley, a well known figure around the School, was the main speaker. In his very interesting talk he gave those leaving, advice which concentrated on three main points. First he showed that the gallant, the courageous, the great deed is never wasted even when it seems futile, as is shown by the Spartan stand at Thermopylae. Then he pointed out the great effect of the seemingly unimportant kindly word or gesture. Finally he advised us that we should always have faith in our way of life, and in the final result of good. Colonel Alley's speech was followed by some remarks by the Headmaster. Then Williamson, Head Boy this year, spoke briefly and closed by proposing a toast to the masters who had done so much for the boys, and Mr. Ket- chtun replying for the masters, explained the satisfaction the teachers received from their connection with the boys. Gaunt, the Head Prefect, then spoke a few words on his impressions of the School, and finished by proposing a toast to the Headmaster. This year Col. Alley very kindly gave a copy of Lord Tweedsmuir's Canadian Occasions to each of the Sixth Form boys who were leaving. This kindly gesture was very much appreciated by them. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 New Privileges The School and the Record would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the new privileges made this term. They were:-Seniors: M. J. Dignam, J. F. D. Boul- den, F. N. S. Harvie, D. R. Byers, D. V. Deverall, J. S. Wismer. House Oilicersz E. T. Spencer, J. C. Deadman, C. R. Bronfman, A. G. T. Hughes, A. K. Maclaren, A. K. Pater- son, D. R. Gilley. The Record Dinner The annual Record dinner was held on May 28 and a very good meal was enjoyed by all present. The Head- master congratulated the editors and their staffs on the way in which they maintained the high standards of the Record and made special mention of the poetry and photography and also of the greatly increased amount of advertising which was brought in by the business man- agers, Cross and Morgan ii. The Headmaster also con- gratulated the Gym. team and Debating Society Who were also present on their good work. Watts, the editor, and Mr. Humble, the Record's adviser gave their impressions of the work done this past year. Mr. Humble gave us an insight into an editor's job which is not as free from worry as it might seem from a surface viewpoint. After these short formal speeches, the dinner was thrown open to sug- gestions, and many interesting ideas and different aspects of old ideas were discussed and mulled over. The dinner was a great success and it seems certain that many of the new ideas will be adopted by the next Record staff. -1 ...,.. INSPECTION DAY May 15 Owing, no doubt, to the agency of a good-natured fairy, May 15 turned out to be the only fine day in the 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD middle of the usual Ontario rainy season. And T.C.S. picked that day to hold its annual Cadet Inspection. The Inspec- tion this year marked the official change-over ceremonies from Army to complete Air Force affiliation of the Cadet Corps. In 1936 the School Corps became affiliated with the 110th Air Force squadron in Toronto, the first Cadet Corps in the British Empire to be affiliated with an Air Force unit. The Corps Was, however, under Army super- vision until last year when it was decided to become a unit of the Air Cadets after the Army had stated the Corps had to accept a complete affiliation. Consequently, many high- ranking Air Force officers were on hand this year to wit- ness the parade. Air Vice Marshal C. R. Slemon, C.B., C.B.E., Air member for operations and training, took the salute and along with the inspecting party were Brig. D. R. Agnew, Commandant of the Royal Military College, Air Vice-Marshal E. E. Middleton, C.B.E., A.O.C. Central Air Command, Air Vice-Marshal Frank McGill, Air Commo- dore G. S. O'Brian, Group Captain Dan Bradshaw, D.F.C., Officer Commanding Trenton Air Station, Flight Lieuts. Cleever and Middleton. It had been extremely difficult to prepare for the Inspection owing to the bad weather, but the Corps paraded, nevertheless, with even more of the smartness generally associated with the T.C.S. Cadet Corps. The compliments paid to it by all who saw the parade were profuse and sincere. Air Vice-Marshal Slemon said that he had witnessed a stirring display of drill and that he was astounded . He said that he had often heard of the fine work of the T.C.S. Cadet Corps but that he was truly amazed at the showing of the Corps, which he said, had greatly exceeded his expectations. Air Vice-Marshal E. E. Middleton said that the performance of the boys was unparalled in his experience and that he was greatly im- pressed with the leadership and ability shown by the Cadet Officers and N.C.O.'s. As usual the Ceremonial Drill was followed by the House Drill Competition. Both Houses were very close but Brent was awarded the cup due chiefly to its rifle drill. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 The gymnasium and physical training work in the afternoon was probably the finest in the history of the School. The many visitors at the School were amazed at the high standard set by the boys, and their performance will be difficult to equal. The J.S. demonstration team, Club Swinging, and Brain Stimulating Games and the Senior School High bar, Parallel bar, Tumbling, Vaulting, Horse, and Physical Training teams all performed with rare precision and form. INSPECTION OF THE CADET CORPS The following letter has been received by the Head- master from Air Marshal W. A. Curtis, Chief of the Air Staff, with reference to the Inspection of the Cadet Corps on May 15: Air Vice Marshal Slemon has described to me and the Air Oiiicers of my staff the excellence of the day's activities at Trinity College School on 15th May and of his real en- joyment of the proceedings. I am informed that Air Vice Marshal Middleton, Group Captain Bradshaw and the other oiiicers who attended were equally well impressed. I am sorry that my trip to Europe prevented me from attending for, as you know, I always enjoy the occasion. Apparently this year's programme went off with extra- ordinary success and I am very pleased that this was the case on this particular occasion which officially marked the transition of your School Cadet Corps to a Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets. The R.C.A.F. is well pleased to have this association with your fine School and we will do our best to give adequate assistance to your Cadet Unit. Thank you for the hospitality extended to my oflicers on the occasion of the Inspection. They, and the rest of my staff, join me in wishing your School and your Air Cadet Squadron the very best of success. . T.C.S. CRICKET TEAM IN BERMUDA A cricket team composed of past and present T.C.S. boys will play a series of matches in Bermuda this sum- 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD mer. Neville Conyers is the provisional captain and the following will be members of the team: W. J. Brewer, A. M. Barnes, R. H. Gaunt, M. J. Cox, D. A. Walker, K. C. Lambert, N. F. Thompson, W. M. Con- yers, H. C. D. Cox, A. C. B. Wells, R. T. Cooper. Mr. P. H. Lewis will be in charge of the team. The T.C.S. Cricket Team has not lost a school match in two years but they will have keen competition in Bermuda. The schedule is as follows: Friday, July 2-T.C.S. vs. An XI at the Bermuda Athletic Association Ground. Sunday, July 4-T.C.S. vs. Somerset Workmen's Club, at Somerset. ' Tuesday, July 6-T.C.S. vs. B.A.A. at B.A.A. Thursday, July 8-T.C.S. vs. Serpentine Recreation Club at Cavendish. , Sunday. July 11-T.C.S. vs. St. George's Dinghy and Sports Club at St. George's. Tuesday, July 13-T.C.S. vs. Bermuda Cricket Association picked XI at B.A.A. -.11 THE ARCHBISHOP OVVEN MEMORIAL Trinity College School is glad to learn of the decision to commemorate the life and Work of the late much loved Primate of all Canada, Archbishop Derwyn Trevor Owen, who was always a loyal friend and supporter of the School. The sum of 350,000 is to be raised by public subscription to found and endow The Archbishop Owen Memorial Lec- tureship and The Archbishop Owen Memorial Scholarships. The establishment of a Lectureship in Canada would bring to this country from time to time, a scholar or writer to share his learning and wisdom with us. The objective also provides for two Scholarships in Theology in Canadian Anglican Theological Colleges. T.C.S. people will un- doubtedly give this Memorial every possible support. . i-l1 - fiiss- mmair' -.ii-.I :- ' . I -1 . I Q l 9. G gl lf 1 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 THE LADIES' GUILD Once again the T.C.S. Ladies' Guild, the oldest organization of its kind in Canada, has been of tremendous help to the School. Under the thoughtful and able direc- tion of the President, Mrs. George Kirkpatrick, the Guild has provided a bursary of the value of two hundred dollars, individualmembers of the Guild, Mrs. J. H. Gundy and Mrs. R. C. Matthews have given two more bursaries of the value of two hundred dollars each, the Guild has lettered the names of Prize Winners on the panelling of the Hall, has contributed funds to the Senior and Junior School libraries, has given prizes for Art, has re-covered all the chairs and chesterfield in the Guild room, has put an awn- ing over the south window of the Guild room. The Montreal Branch of the Guild, under the Presi- dent, Mrs. Quentin Bovey, has given a special Montreal bursary of the value of one hundred and fifty dollars. The Port Hope Branch of the Guild is erecting steel railings by the steps leading to the Memorial Cross and continues to keep the section of the School grounds between the Hospital and Trinity House in good order. All this assistance to the School is truly appreciated to the full g the members of the Guild, under their able executives, give much thought and interest to all the de- tails affecting School life and it is a real encouragement and assistance to know they are always anxious to help in any way.

The Junior School prizes were presented by Mrs. Tottenham, and Mrs. Ket- chum awarded the Senior School prizes. Mrs. Moore was asked to present for the first time the Junior School cap- tains trophy, which had been so kindly given by her. After these proceedings were over, a concert was held in the Hall, the highlights of this being Cooper's playing of his own composition, and Mr. Bagley's rendition of the Major General's Song. This was followed by the traditional sing- ing off ceremonies, which were again conducted this year in a much more orderly fashion. The Speech Day programme began with the leaving service which was held in the Chapel at 11.15 a.m. The Rev. E. R. Bagley, School Chaplain, ofiiciated at this ser- vice assisted by the Rev. Mr. Boulden, Rector of Saint Mark's Church, and the Rev. Mr. Crisall, Rector of Saint John's Church. Unfortunately again this year, the large number of guests could not be accommodated in the Chapel, but the overflow were able to listen to the service through loud speakers outside on the lawn. Following the School Leaving Hymn, the visitors proceeded to the gym- nasium, where the speeches were made, and the prizes were presented. Colonel J. W. Langmuir, M.B.E., opened the proceed- ings by congratulating Mr. Ketchum on the completion of his fifteenth year as Headmaster, and he told us how fortunate we are in having a man of Mr. Ketchum's ability as Headmaster. He told us that several times Mr. Ketchum had been offered other attractive posts, and of his loyalty to the School in remaining with it. Colonel Langmuir then stated that though the financial position of the School was perhaps not as good as could be hoped for, the School was now completely debt free. After this speech came the Headmasterfs report, which was followed by Mr. R. P. Jelletfs sparkling address. 'li A ' 'knqvv HERE AND THERE THE CHOIR TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 The speeches were followed by the giving of athletic a.nd academic prizes which were presented to the winners by Mr. J ellett. They were given undr a different system this year and, to save delays, each boy received all his prizes at one time. Finally, after the Choir had sung the School song, and the Rev. C. H. Boulden had pronounced the blessing, every- one retired to the Hall for a satisfying buffet lunch pre- pared by Mrs. Wilkin's staff. ii11- MR. JELLETT'S ADDRESS Our Speech Days at Trinity College School are grand occasions, but in a school the size of ours, as it is today, made up, as it sometimes seems, almost entirely of prize winners, our proceedings are necessarily somewhat lengthy. Consequently I shall interpose but briefly. I don't know the boys but I know many of their parents. Some years ago I was invited to make the chief address at a dinner in Cornwall following a meeting of a number of Boards of Trade from towns in that section of Ontario. I had prepared my speech carefully, and was in- clined to think highly of it and to expect an enthusiastic reception. However, I found that included with me on the programme was a conjurer, and as it turned out, a good one. He was called upon first and was so enthusiastically received that I soon realized that my effort would be some- thing of an anti-climax. The Chairman must have felt the same way about it and did his best to put me at my ease by stopping the conjurer while he obviously had still, literally and metaphorically speaking, much up his sleeve. He then introduced me and assured me of an audience by saying- Mr. Jellett will now address you and as soon as he has finished the conjurer will go on again. I'm glad that I don't have to compete with a conjurer today. Eight years ago I proposed a health to the School on the occasion of its 75th Anniversary and as, according to our most distinguished Old Boy, Dr. William Osler, man 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD makes little progress in his later years, I shall repeat what I then said. Trinity College School provides not only a sound educa- tion but a way of life in which boys learn to live together in a miniature World of their own. Association with others tends to rub off their rough corners and to make them understand the necessity for give and take, and for con- forming to the general mould, in order to form part of a social order, much as all are required to do in later life. I have not found any better description of what we should aim at in education at T.C.S., than Ramsay Macdonald's words- The educated man is a man with certain subtle, spiritual qualities which make him calm in adversity, happy when alone, just in his dealings, rational, and sane in the fullest meaning of that word in all the affairs of his life. As well as scholarship in the ordinary sense, boys at a school like this should attain an all-round proficiency in sports which not only improves their physical development but should stand them in good stead throughout their lives. Properly used, such proficiency should constitute a form of health insurance, and enable them to match the cares of life with hours of keen enjoyment and relaxation in a time like the present when the grief of the world weighs heavily upon our private lives. A. C. Benson, who was for many years a master at Eton and a competent athlete, realized this, but warned against over-emphasis on proficiency in sports. He said that he did not want to see games diminished, or played with less keenness, but desired to see them duly sub- ordinated. He thought it should not be considered slightly eccentric for a boy to care very much about his work, or to take an interest in books. He wished it to be recognized at schools that the one quality that was admirable was keenness, and that it was admirable in whatever depart- ment it was displayed. I am sure our Headmaster agrees with this. Under his thoroughly capable and enlightened management T.C.S. will meet all its problems successfully, and will grow in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 efficiency, in service to the country, and in its influence on our public life. I have spoken of work in school, and of sports. Du- Maurier ended his famous novel Trilby with this Epitome of Life:- A little work, a little play to keep us going, and so good- day! A little warmth, a little light Of Love's bestowing-and so good nightg A little fun to match the sorrow Of each day's growing and so good morrow! A little trust that when we die We reap our sowing and so goodbye! This concludes what I said in 1940. Principal James gave a good definition of education at McGill's recent convocation when he said- Education requires that we should encourage a man to think for himself, that we should draw out his inherent abilities to their maximum capacity, that we should en- courage him to stand on his own feet and know for himself the difference between right and wrong. Education should, I think, also teach discernment. Once upon a time I was much impressed by a quotation used by Walter Price, an American speaker whom I knew well. It ran something like this- To discern between the evils that energy can cure and those which patience must endure, is the difference between manliness and childishness, between sense and folly. I wrote to him and said how good it was and that I intended to use it. I asked him to let me know who wrote it. He replied that he was disappointed in me-that he didn't know who wrote it and didn't care-and that if one were asked where any quotation came from it was safe enough to reply Epistetus . At T.C.S. I know we aim at genuineness and thorough- ness and in my experience, which has included mucl. train- ing of a large body of men and women, I have found it helpful to call attention to The Prayer of the Scientist 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD from Arrowsmith, and this I say as a word of guidance to our masters:- God give me unclouded eyes and freedom from haste. God give me a quiet and relentless anger against all pretense and all pretentious work and all work left slack and unfinished. To our boys who today become Old Boys I urge attention to public affairs in order that they may be useful to Canada. In the midwinter of 431 B.C. when making an oration on the Athenian dead in the first year of the Peloponnesian War, Pericles said:- We differ from other states in regarding the man who holds aloof from public life, not as 'quiet' but as 'useless'g we decide or debate, carefully and in person, all matters of policy. holding, not that words and deeds go ill together but that acts are foredoomed to failure when undertaken undiscussedf' . Thinking of the keenness extolled by Benson I found this thought-provoking bit in a business magazine- Do more than touch-feelg Do more than look-observe, Do more than read-absorb: Do more than think-ponder, Do more than hear-listen, Do more than listen-understand, Do more than talk-say something. I hope I have succeeded in meeting the last of these admonitions. At any rate, what I have said, being com- posed chiefly of borrowings, exemplifies the work of a good executive, who has been defined as one who does nothing himself which he can induce someone else to do for him. Progress of a Great Man has been described as fol- lows:- 1. Quits shining his own shoes. 2. Quits writing his own letters. 3. Quits writing his own speeches. By way of apology for my effort today I may say that I haven't attained the greatness of having my speeches written for me. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 We have a great School, influenced by a good record, and fine traditions, but great mainly because of the genius for organization, leadership, and the building of character. of our headmaster and his predecessors. We owe our deepest homage to Philip Ketchum. May he long continue to guide and direct us, and may his accomplishments for T.C.S. be crowned and rewarded in years not far ahead by an adequate Endowment Fund to assure the perpetuation of the School, and of his work for it, through such bad times as may ensue, and for which we must be prepared. This is the next task that we must face, the accomplish- ment of which is most dear to his heart. HEADMASTER'S REPORT Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: Speech Days at T.C.S. are family gatherings and to- day it is a very particular family gathering because the Guest of Honour is one of our own and a distinguished Canadian, Mr. R. P. Jellett. I am only sorry Mrs. Jellett could not be here with him. Mr. Jellett was at T.C.S. from 1892 until 1897. His name appears often in the prize lists for those years and in his final year he won no less than five prizes, he took an enthusiastic part in all sides of School life and was a member of the Cricket Eleven. He can tell many tales of life at T.C.S. in those days, especially perhaps of the fire of 1895. On leaving T.C.S. he began a business career which has lasted fifty-one years and has brought him renown at home and abroad. For forty-six years he has been with the Royal Trust Company and the tremendous growth of that firm has been largely owing to Mr. J ellett's unflagging zeal, wisdom and foresight. In 1928 he was appointed General Manager, in 1939 Vice-President and in 1943 Pre- sident. Early in his career Mr. Jellett began to interest him- self in various community enterprises and charitable en- deavours, it would be difficult indeed to imagine a life more QS TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD devoted to the welfare of the group in which he found him- self, and he did all this While his business demanded his unremitting attention and long hours of Work. He has been President of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Chairman of the Canadian Section of the International Chamber of Commerce, Chairman of the Board of Gover- nors of the Welfare Federation, President of the Montreal Board of Trade, President of the Art Association of Montreal, President of the Canadian Club, Chairman of the War Savings Committee of Quebec, Chairman of the Red Cross Campaign, Chairman of the Restoration Fund of the Church of England, Chairman of the Anglican Forward Movement, of the Community Chest and other charitable campaigns. In 1939 he led a Canadian delegation to the meetings of the International Chamber of Commerce in Copenhagen. He has been President of the Royal Montreal Golf Club, of the Mount Royal Tennis Club, of the Montreal Indoor Tennis Club, of the Badminton and Squash Club. For many years he has been one of the pillars of Christ Church Cathedral, Montreal, he has been Chairman of the Canterbury Cathedral Fund and Treasurer of the Bishop's University Appeal. You Will agree that this would seem to be enough extra curricular activity for several ordinary mortals but I have not yet begun to recite Mr. Jellett's Work for T.C.S. He has been a Governor of this School for thirty-six years, a longer period than any other Old Boy has been on the Board. It is impossible to convey to you adequately the true story of Mr. Jellett's devoted and selfless interest in the School for more than fifty years. Never has he allowed himself to be too busy, with his many other under- takings, to throw himself Whole-heartedly into any en- deavour for the betterment of T.C.S. The smallest detail as Well as the most formidable problem captures his close attention and one would think it is the only thing that matters to him by the way he tackles it. Indeed it is the only thing that matters for the time being, though there are scores of other questions waiting around the corner for him. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 After the first war he lent his full support to Dr. Orchard's plan to build a Junior School as a Memorial to the Old Boys who had been killed, through his endeavours and those associated with him, including Mr. Strathy, Mr. Cassels, Mr. Seagram and Mr. Bogert who are still on the Governing Body, this great enterprise was completed. Then came the fire of 1928 and the rebuilding of the School as we know it to-day. Mr. Jellett threw himself into every detail of that. Following the worst years of the depres- sion the School found itself in desperate financial straits and a building debt of S250,000 had to be paid off. Mr. Jellett organized the campaign in Montreal and was him- self responsible for finding many thousands of dollars which, added to other most generous donations, saved the School from bankruptcy. In recent years he has been Chairman of the Chapel Building Committee formed to make plans for a War Memorial Chapel, and lately he has been Chairman in Montreal of the War Memorial Cam- paign. The great success of that appeal is in no small measure due to his whole-hearted and long continued devo- tion to this cause. But as a Headmaster may I say that what has meant almost more to me than these major undertakings has been Mr. J ellett's unfailing sympathy and support in any School problem which came to his attention. I think of the many trips he has made to Port Hope, giving up week-ends at his country home in order to attend some School occasion. And while he was here something would catch his eye and within a few days the equipment of the School would be improved. On one such trip he decided We should have a hard tennis court, and it was built, the beginning of the set of three which we now enjoy: on an- other, he thought the coats of arms of the Founder, of Bishop Brent, and Dr. Bethune should be carved on the stones placed for that purpose. It was done. On another, he had figures and an inscription carved over the door to the Classroom building, always gifts to the School have come in an unending stream, books and reproductions for the library and art collection, pictures to hang, a beautiful mural for the Art room, tennis racquets and balls for boys 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD who could not afford them, prizes every year. There is simply no end to the story but I know Mr. Jellett will never forgive me if I go into further details. No Old Boy can ever have been more faithful, more thoughtful, more generous, toward his School. He is a filius fidelissimusn. a most steadfast, true, and faithful son, and never can any T.C.S. person forget all he has done for his old School. Last summer the School suffered a great loss in the sudden death of Mr. J . B. MacKinnon. Mr. MacKinnon had been a Governor for eight years, he was Chairman of the building and grounds committee and always he took a deep interest in our life. He gave us our movie projector and screen, and his advice at meetings of the Governing Body was most sound and helpful. We deeply sympathize with his family in their great loss. Our senior Old Boy, Mr. G. D. Perry, died last January in his ninety-first year. Mr. Perry was at T.C.S. from 1869-72, No. 122 on the School list, which now contains over four thousand names. He attended our 75th anni- versary in 1940 and often recalled the happiness he had in meeting many other T.C.S. Old Boys. Last October, Mr. G. B. Strathy announced his retire- ment from the Chairmanship of the Governing Body, a post he had held for ten years. Mr. Strathy is another of those great T.C.S. men who have spent themselves and their substance in helping the younger generation. He too left T.C.S. in 1897 when he was Head Prefect and in that year he began his contributions to the School, contribu- tions which have gone on ever since. Very few men in this country have been as generous to educational institu- tions as Mr. Strathy has been to T.C.S. and Trinity College, Toronto. A brilliant scholar himself, he knows the value of good schooling and he has done his best to ensure that Trinity and T.C.S. will continue to offer such training. He has been a member of the Governing Body for 33 years and I am glad to say he is continuing to act as a life mem- ber. Next week a complimentary dinner is being given to him by his colleagues on the Governing Body and proper .., JL 474 '1 'fs , .PV 21 51 -if 'I 'iii 'Y W .J .Jn i- a. AIR VICE-MARSHAI, C R. SLEHON.

To-day we can merely tender him our heartfelt thanks for all he has done. Colonel J. W. Langmuir was elected Chairman to suc- ceed Mr. Strathy. For twelve years Colonel Langmuir has acted as Secretary of the Governing Body and we can never thank him enough for the immense amount of time and detailed work he has given to the affairs of the School. Without the help of men like Mr. Jellett, Mr. Strathy, Colonel Langmuir and many others, T.C.S. could never con- tinue to progress. We are deeply grateful to them. At this point in the School year I am reminded of the story told of Joe, the hired man. Joe was a tower of strength and he did heavy manual work almost night and day for months on end. One warm day his employer de- cided to give him an easy job for a change and a rest, and told him to sort out a pile of potatoes in the barn. Just sit down beside them, Joe , he said, and take it easy for a few hours. When the employer came back he found Joe lying beside the pile of potatoes, breathing quickly, the perspiration streaming. Why, whatever has happened, Joe? Are you sick ? he said. Between gasps the reply came 'Tm tuckered right out, Joe said, trying to make all these blank decisions. Can't I go back to digging post holes ? I am afraid many of us are feeling a bit tuckered out mentally after ten months of decision making. The School has been full again and there are few places left now for September 1949. It was a great pleasure for me to discover that out of the 265 boys in the School this year, there are forty-one sons and grandsons of Old Boys, sixteen grandsons. We have had no epidemics though a few boys have been invalided home on account of various infections. School Work has gone on steadily and this spring the Senior School average touched 66W, the highest, I believe, it has ever been. We have great hopes that this year's Sixth Form will do unusually well in the exams which began yesterday. Last June a number of Scholarships were won by our boys and Prentice was first in the Dominion in the exams for entry to Royal Roads. This . 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD year Arthur Millward has won the Governor General's prize at Trinity for taking the best degree, and he captured numerous other awards including a scholarship to Harvard. Millward has never failed in four years to come first with first class honours in the Classics Course at the University of Toronto. In fourteen years T.C.S. boys have won no less than seventy University Scholarships-a remarkable record. Last spring forty-seven candidates tried 355 papers and won honours in 228 papers. 8992 of the papers at- tempted were passed, 6492 were honour papers. The top boys in our exams for entrance to the Senior School wrote some of the best papers we have had and the following awards were made: J. deB. Domville of Selwyn House School ranked first but being over age to be eligible for a Memorial Scholarship he was given a special Scholar- ship of the value of S250 a year. P. G. Martin of the T.C.S. Junior School came first among the Scholarship candidates and he was awarded the C. J. S. Bethune Memorial Scholar- ship of the value of S500 a year. C. P. R. L. Slater of St. Peter's College, Adelaide, Australia, ranked second and was awarded the C. H. Brent Memorial Scholarship of the value of S500 a year. C. P. B. Taylor of the T.C.S. Junior School and E. B. Newcomb of Selwyn House School, Montreal, received honorable mention for their very good papers. Debating was carried on extremely well this year under the able direction of Mr. Humble and his Committee. Our teams had nine clashes with other Schools and won seven of them. Fulford and Williamson made most able and telling speeches on several occasions and others were almost as good. The Political Science Club has functioned regularlyg The Record , under the editorship of Watts, has been produced five times, with one more on the way, each number over 100 pages in length. Those who read it will. I think, agree with me that few School publications are better planned or have contributions of a higher quality. The Choir have continued their excellent work and made new strides under Mr. Cohu's skilful direction, and Mr. Dale directed another most successful play. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Cadet Corps, despite many vicissitudes of weather and measles, gave a performance which has been called almost unprecedented in excellence. The Air Vice Marshal Commanding the Central Area said it was unparalleled in his experience. The Gym. work in the afternoon was in the same category, and Mr. Batt, Mr. Armstrong, Gaunt, the O.C., with the oflicers and members of all ranks of the Corps well deserve the many congratulations they have received. Air Vice Marshal C. R. Slemon took the salute and spoke glowingly of the work of the boys. It is a pleasure to pay public tribute to the work of the Junior School under the capable direction of Mr. Charles Tottenham. We feel we have never ha.d a better year in that department and work and games have reached new levels of attainment. For the first time, Junior School teams have defeated our old rivals across the lake in the three major sports of football, hockey and cricket. Indeed the hockey team was the top team in the little Little Big Four. Our Senior School teams continued to show the fine spirit and skill which we are inclined to take for granted. The Football team was exceptionally good, being defeated only in the final tussle against a very strong U.C.C. team. The Basketball team won the Championship of the Prep School group defeating U.C.C., S.A.C., U.T.S. and Picker- ing, the Hockey team came third, defeating S.A.C. and Pickering, the Squash team defeated U.C.C. and was nosed out by Ridley, the Swirmning team came second defeating U.C.C. and S.A.C., the Gym. team was probably the best we have ever had and it came within a few points of winning an Ontario championship. McDowell, the Captain, won two medals in this competition. The Cricket team has been undefeated in two years and no one who saw the matches this year will ever forget them, especially the U.C.C. and Ridley games. Mr. Lewis has coached the team for twenty-five years and he deserves our sincere con- gratulations and gratitude. Indeed all the Masters who help so well with the important athletic side of our life 3.1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD make a valuable contribution to the health and morale of the School. Messrs. Hodgetts, Humble, Bagley, Lewis, Armstrong have been in charge of first teams this year. Mr. Hodgetts is Director of Athletics as well as carrying on a heavy teaching programme, and he has coached foot- ball, basketball and swimming. I am to-day in the extremely happy position of being able to tell you that our War Memorial Fund has reached our first objective of S250,000, provided our very kind friends who have promised further help are able to fulfil their commitments. This is a wonderful result and it is in no small measure due to the Chairman of the Campaign Committee, Mr. Charles Burns, assisted so ably by many willing Old Boys. It is true that building costs have risen alarmingly since this appeal was instituted but we know there are a number of Old Boys and Friends of the School who are still anxious to have a share in this great under- taking and we feel confident that the final result of the appeal will enable us to add a Chapel and Gate House to the School buildings which will constitute a memorial worthy of the Old Boys who died defending our lives and our possessions. A Building Committee is going to give close and detailed study to the plans in the light of present conditions and I feel it is very probable that the sketches you have seen will have to be materially altered. The deep gratitude of all T.C.S. people goes out to those who have given us such liberal help, and especially to Mr. Burns and his right hand men for the long hours they have spent in the task of collecting funds. I may say that there are four men sitting on the platform to-day who alone contributed one quarter of the total sum of S250,000. Because of the desperately diflicult conditions facing most people in the middle income salaried groups, on account of long continued high taxation and alarmingly swollen living costs, I have lately asked our Old Boys to give a few dollars each to an Old Boys' Bursary Fund which will enable worthy lads to come to T.C.S. who could not otherwise meet the expenses. The response has been magnificent. In two weeks over twelve hundred dollars TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 has been sent in and more is on the way. So many Old Boys have written to say that this is, in their opinion, the best way to spend a few extra dollars and that they will gladly continue the donations year by year as long as they have resources. Of such stuff are T.C.S. Old Boys made! We are proud of them and greatly encouraged by their whole-hearted response to this and the various other appeals which the School has made. Ever since the beginning of the war we have been keeping detailed records of the Old Boys on Active Service. For the past year Mr. Humble and I have been putting these records in shape for publication as a T.C.S. War Service Book. We have pictures of some five hundred of the eight hundred and fifty Old Boys who saw active ser- vice and we are adding the names of those who served in the First World War and the South African War, together with some statistics. We feel this will be a valuable volume, detailing, as it will, the service of over one thousand four hundred T.C.S. Old Boys in three wars. We have never published such a book before and it will be prized by many, for this is a story of gallantry and service which can hardly be duplicated. Those who want to be sure of obtaining a copy should send their names and cheques for 955.00 to the Secretary of the Old Boys' Association as soon as possible. The book should be ready for mailing by the beginning of August. I cannot close this report without referring to the splendid service given to the School by our staff, Masters and others. Mrs. Ketchum and I spent a week in New England at the end of April visiting eight schools and col- leges. The schools were wealthy ones with rich endow- ments and splendid buildings, but we came back feeling certain that T.C.S. would not take second place to any of them in respect to the quality of its staff and teaching, or the character of its boys. We are deeply indebted to all the faithful men and Women who keep the School going well year after year. Two ladies on the staff have had particularly diiicult years, Mrs. Wilkin, the dietitian, and Miss Gregory, the secretary. They have worked long hours 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD day after day under trying conditions and never has there been a word of complaint. Well over 10,000 pieces of mail have gone out from our oiiice, an all time record. Mr. Hett, who came from England last autumn for a year's experi- ence in a Ca.nadian School, is returning this summer and we shall miss his cheerful personality. Mr. Temple, bursar for five years, is leaving to take a better post. A bursar at a School like this has no sinecureg he is pestered continually, and we are grateful indeed to Mr. Temple for all he has done to keep the wheels going day after day. He is a most conscientious man and a very able accountant, and though we shall miss him, we know he will do well in his new sphere of work. We are having a Leaving Dinner next week for the Senior boys who are going on to broader horizons but I take this opportunity of thanking them for the way they have fulfilled their various duties this year. .They have given their best and they must feel rewarded in the knowledge that the eighty-third year of T.C.S. has been such a good one. There are always new heights to be reached, else what would be the use of striving, but we have come a long way in fifteen years towards the attain- ment of the objective we set in 1933, namely, a School controlled principally by self discipline with each individual steadily progressing in the qualities of courtesy, industry and integrity. Our Senior boys go into a world which seems to be drifting dangerouslyg a true course has not been followed since the war. They will find many people alarmed at the prospect of trouble and rushing madly for life preservers of some sort, usually those stuffed with bank rolls. But such safety devices are not always buoyant. Others on the lower deck are getting what they can by threats. Those in the middle are squeezed most unjustly and are beginning to lose morale as well as savings. The middle group form the backbone and balance of the civilized countries of the world and if that backbone is broken, disaster will loom on the horizon. While these dangers confront the Ship of State around the world, there is an insidious whispering campaign against all principles of con- TRLNZITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 duct, against belief and custom and law, both moral and civil. Of many thousands of people it can be truly said to- day: Getting and spending they lay waste their powers . . . . they have given their hearts away, a sordid boon. Some weeks ago I quoted a passage to the School which I repeat now: In the rich pattern of culture there are many strands: the Hebrew belief in God, the Christian message of compassion and redemption, the Greek love of truth, beauty, goodness, the Roman genius for law. Our civiliza- tion is a spiritual conception. But if men cease to hold that conception in their minds, cease to feel its worth in their hearts, it will die. That is the grave danger to-day, and the danger is intensified by economic conditions and by the neo paganism being proclaimed in circles called intellectual, circles which should know better. It is easy to slide down the primrose path to destruction and we must have strong and wise leaders to direct us up the more difficult road to wider horizons and true objectives. Our hope for our Senior boys who are leaving us is that they will keep their youthful cheerfulness and friend- liness, their sense of adventure and generosity and brave hearts in the face of adversity, and that they will hold fast to their belief in the essential goodness of man and the spiritual power breathed into man. Then they will be able to help in untangling humanity from the web of its own weaving, and set our feet on a saner, more just, and more solid path. Our best wishes go with them in their great adventure. 38 TRHNIITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SENIOR SCHOOL PRIZES GENERAL PROFICIENCY Sixth Form- . . .

IN DAYS OF OLD Prompted by failure to find material for a Feature anywhere else, we turned for inspiration to some of the sports write-ups in the Record before 1907. The first thing we did was to discover a phenomenal hockey player: Probably the surprise of the day was Tett at cover- point, true, he poached a good deal in the forward lines' preserves, but when he skated forward to meet the puck, he had a way of getting there and carrying the puck along with him, and when he waited in his place, his reach was simply amazing, it did not seem to matter which side of the rink the puck was on, it was pretty sure to run up against Tett in some shape or form, either his stick or his legs, and if it came down the centre, why there was Tett himself, this seemed to nettle our opponents and one of them, finding it impossible to get the puck by, hit on the happy idea of sending it over, but just as the puck was describing a parabola through the arched roof, Tett sud- denly produced himself in a straight line towards the rafters, his hand disappeared among the beams and, like a bat dislodged from its hold, down fluttered the puck, they gave it up then, it's all very well adapting means to ends, but what if the ends are infinite? Any Canadiens' scouts around? 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD We also discovered that the hockey team in 1902 suf- fered from the same malady that our teams in recent years have suffered from: . The disadvantage of an open rink and the precarious nature of the hockey season, especially on the Lake Front. have been sadly in evidence this year. A complete thaw has ruined all the rinks. The sports staff of the Record to-day prides itself, and justly so, in being reasonably fair in reports, yet one would go far to match the candour of this remark on football. This year has been decidedly unsuccessful . Yet per- haps in those days they carried it a bit too far: Referee Taylor was not impartial and seemed a little rusty on some recent rules . On the other hand, they were almost as skilled in excusing defeat as our sports writers were a few years ago when, in every game we lost, the score was no indication of the play . They even excused themselves for a cricket defeat in the following terms: In this game conditions were all against us: the ground being not merely fast but bumpy and uncertain . . . a stiff wind from the north added to the bowlers' em- barrassmentn. It seems that the sportsmen of former years at T.C.S. did not always devote their full attention to the game in hand and seemed a little proud of themselves in this respect. We found the following accounts in former hoc- key games: The First Team went downtown to play a friendly game with the Port Hope Juniors, though the game all the way through was anything but friendly .... Blank just now delivered a really scientific slug which, if it had gone home, would have finished somebody, and was boxed for two minutes . In football, too, there seemed sometimes to be interest for the spectators other than the game itself: Some of the players disagreed near the touch-line and most regrettably a number of non-players mixed up with TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 the U.C.C. players across the touch-lineg for a moment there was nearly a free fight . Finally, we learned that the teams of yesterday had a magic method of pulling themselves out of a losing streak. When the formula was translated, it read something like this: When T.C.S. came on the ice it was seen that they all wore their colours backwards thereby changing their luck . It might be worth a try at that! -P. H. R. Alley, VI S. 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 'Ae 'E' .' I ,' ,lflfl l v 1 '1.vx ' bu ,N 5. W . - 2 .

He is a half-breed with a thorough knowledge of the bush and an unending supply of tall stories. . R Last year, when we had been out for eight weeks without much luck, we camped in a part of the forest with very tall trees and very dense undergrowth. Caluch told us that we were in the district of the timber wolves and proceeded to tell us one of his experiences with these fierce cousins of the dog. He said that, one winter, when he had been tending his traps, he had been caught by darkness. Resolving to build a fire and sleep out that night, he set about collecting wood. When the fire was blazing merrily he heard, from the distant south, the blood-curdling cry of a timber wolf which is as unlike the cry of his brother, the coyote, as the call of a lion is to the cry of a domestic kitten. An answering cry came from the north and an- other from the east. He realized that the wolves had picked up his scent and were closing in on him. He had a good supply of firewood and cartridges and was in a fairly open part of the otherwise dense forest. Soon he could see their eyes gleaming at the edge of the thicket. They became bolder and with stealthy pads crept nearer. He shot. They retreated. One wolf lay dead. Quiet settled once more upon the dead, black night. Both wolves and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 man felt the tension of the life and death struggle. Once more they came, like insidious shadows through the night. Three more shots. Again they slunk away. This was re- peated time and again until finally Caluch had no more ammtmition. The desire to kill was growing in the wolves and the hunter's fear infiltrated to their hearts. Their courage returned although ten of their number lay on the frozen ground. This time they charged with a heart- freezing cry and were met by burning brands from the brilliant blaze. The wolves were too full of the smell of blood. they came on and on and on. Caluch sank into dark oblivion. Here he stopped his story. I was beside myself won- dering what had happened. I asked him and he merely replied. with a sober face, They killed me. --J. S. Wismer, VIA. 1-1 WHERE IS THE KEY? Where is the Key? You cry out in your yearning, Where is the Key, Which once regained can open time-sealed gates that bar the way, And shew you Truth? The valley lies below, but yet above Clouds veil the sky.

Or in the thirsting flame, the sighing wind, rolling sands, the measureless sea? Is it hidden in the singing bow, the atom's shell, re- membered time? 55 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD No, it is neither there, not there, nor there.

H. S. Cooper, VIA. THE LAURENTIAN SHIELD CAwarded the first Norman G. Hugel Prize of Sixty Dollars for the best essay on a subject concerning Cana- dian Mining and Geologyl The Laurentian Shield, also known as the Canadian Shield or Precambrian Shield, surrounds Hudson Bay on the east, south and west, and has an area of about 1.825.- 000 square miles. that is, over half that of all Canada. CA shield is a large area where Precambrian rocks outcrop: they formed the starting points of the formation of con- tinents. and on top of them later rocks have been de- posited.l The Laurentian Shield includes: most of the Territories of Mackenzie and Keewatin, the northern half of Saskatchewan and most of Manitoba, through a strip of Ontario between the Great Lakes, Superior and Nipigon. and a coastal plain around the southern parts of Hudson and James Bays, all of Quebec north of the St. Lawrence: and Labrador. It also stretches into the United States in part of New York State, the northern peninsula of Michi- gan, and the northern part of Minnesota. Almost all of Canadafs northern islands do not belong to this Shield. This geological division has been divided into two economic areas-the Shield and the Tundra. The latter, stretching over the Northlands, is free of the coniferous forests of the South. Its economic activity is limited, and mining is carried on only at scattered spots in it, while the southern half of the Shield has many industries-among the most important is mining. The geological history of the Laurentian Shield is rather confused, as the original rocks have undergone so 53 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD many radical changes since the time of their formation. There is a great scarcity of fossils from which knowledge of formations is gained, and the irregular faults and meta- morphosed conditions of these formations have made neces- sary a number of changes in their classification as increas- ing knowledge comes to light. Also there has been great folding of old rocks under new, heavier formations, and discoveries of such folds are likely to lead the geologist astray. It is such difficulties that confuse the expert, he finds the oldest of the Precambrian era, the Couchiching and the Keewatin systems, sometimes regarded as being practically of the same age, invaded and possibly underlaid and sur- rounded by various later Cambrian ages - Grenville, Laurentian, Timiskaming, Algoman, Huronian, Animikie, and Keweenawan. , Significant to the economic standpoint is that the rock formations cooled slowly so that comparatively large crystals of rock were formed and our minerals separated themselves from the rest of the molten metal. After the cooling was over, the mountainous region was slowly re- duced by erosion to a condition of relatively low relief. This latter long drawn-out work was finished by the Cambrian period. In the following geological period the advancing and melting glaciers that came down from both sides of the Hudson Bay region left a new layer of rock and soil, some of it quite fertile, behind them. At the end of this Pleistocene or glacial period the Shield lay at a level lower than it is now, but over the years has been uplifted, and is still rising slightly. Minerals formed easily in the deeply buried ancient rocks, and have been exposed at the surface of the earth by constant erosion. As the rocks are not continuously covered with soil, exploration of these minerals is relatively easy. Mining, as has already been mentioned, is one of the most extensive industries of the Shield. Many minerals, varied and sometimes rare in other parts of the world, are TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 found in the Laurentian Shield, and new mines are con- stantly being established, while old ones, exhausted or un- profitable, are abandoned. The most important and profitable mineral in the Shield is gold. Almost all of the gold produced in this region has been found in hard rocks, not by placer mining in alluvial sands of streams, such as was common in the Gold Rush days of the Klondike. In this hard rock form, gold occurs in two ways-in veins or, in some important cases, in lodes Clarge masses of highly mineralized rockj. The most important gold-mining districts are at Porcupine and Kirkland Lake. There are many other smaller mines, and innumerable hole-in-the-ground failures, which never reached production or perhaps failed after production had begun simply because the mineral content of the ore was not sufficient to balance operating costs. Thus is shown the fact that as the glaciers receded, the surface gold especially was spread fairly evenly over the land, and only in some places was it concentrated. There are several Ways of mining gold, depending on its situation, depth, and several other factors, but it is not our purpose to delve into that field. Silver is another valuable mineral of the Shield. Since its value is not set by the government, as is gold's, the price of silver is quite low, and mines of the Shield which produce silver alone have been forced out of business. The only silver-producing mines now are those Where a number of other minerals, especially copper, gold, lead and zinc, are found mixed in the same ore. By a process developed in 1923, called flotation, these minerals can be separated, and important producers like Noranda have profited by this discovery. But the most important silver producer is at Cobalt, where rich vertical narrow veins run in all direc- tions, and Where a large amount of the World's cobalt was produced until cheaper cobalt from the Belgian Congo partly displaced the Canadian product. Almost 88 per cent of the world's nickel is produced in the Laurentian Shield, at Sudbury. There is still a great reserve there. The same area also supplies about 40 per GQ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD cent of the world's platinum, palladium, rhodium and other minerals of the same type. Iron ore is abundant in the Shield, and is mined especially in that section of the Shield lying south 'of Lake Superior, in the United States. The deposits there are con- centrated, but in Canada itself the ore is of lower mineral content, and it is no longer profitable to work mines fexcept where the Ontario government subsidizes iron pro- ductionl. There are a number of other minor minerals in the Shield, including graphite, tale, mica, feldspar, magnesite, lead and zinc. Pitchblende, the ore from which valuable radium is extracted, was found in 1930 on the shores of Great Bear Lake, in the far northern section of the Shield. We have now seen how valuable the Canadian or Laurentian Shield is to Canada and the world as far as minerals are concerned. It may also be noted that there may be valuable areas still unknown to the mining indus- try, but it is generally believed that the best deposits have already received attention. These seem for the most part to be along the southern borders of the Shield. Thus the Laurentian Shield, a Precambrian formation, is to-day the source of most of Canada's mineral wealth. The question remains-how long will our minerals last, and what is there yet to be found? -D. C. McDonald, VA. NOT UNTO DEATH And now we waited with hope in our hearts. But the morning had been oppressive. The simmer- ing heat seemed to bring a gloom upon us allg and it hung there, covering everything with its dreary heaviness. Bethany was not alive. And standing there by the little cottage, at the head of that dusty path, that ran like a withered stream down the rocky side of that sun-parched hill, I felt no hope. Beside me someone spoke. This prophet that is coming, what is his name? Another answered, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 Jesus of Nazarethg and there is much talk of him in the market-place at Jerusalem. They say he performs many signs. Yet another spoke, It is he who fed the crowds gathered to hear him speak on the other side of the Galilean Sea. The first voice spoke again. If he can restore our friend to life, then truly, he is a great prophet! I echoed the words in my heart. Yes, he would be a great prophet. But a painful doubt clung to my mind. What man could call the spirit back after four days had elapsed. Too late. I knew it was too late. We waited. The sun had reached its height, and now no shadow fell to ease the glaring rays, no tender shade to cool the thirsting earth. And still we waited. The after- noon drew on. A fig-tree on the slope writhed and died. And suddenly a movement rippled through the crowd. Mur- murings. And Martha turned and left us. He was com- ing! I followed with the crowd to meet him on the path. My aching eyes gazed down, and saw him there, and through my being a strange excitement quivered. And at the sight it seemed as if I hoped again. Slowly he neared the waiting crowd. And Martha met him. They ascended togetherg he and Martha and the disciples. And when they reached us, the sister ran to call her sister. And Mary came towards us running. Her face trusting, lovingg and I hoped the more. Jesus wept. We walked to the cave where Lazarus lay. And as we Walked I wondered. All was different, now that he was with us. Doubt and despondency had vanished, like fan- tasies of darkness before the light. Then all at once the thrilling thought formed in my mind. I trembled as it grewg more sure, more certain. Nor proof, nor reason, I needed not the telling. And once again the Baptist's words rang out, Behold the-Lamb of God! 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Then they said, he loved him, and Martha, four days. Then they took away the stone. And the cave was dark, and the cave was damp and dark, so very dark. And my heart potmded, pounded. And then there was light, ,glorious light. Lazarus, come forth. I climbed alone, the naked hill. The evening air was cool. I watched the sun, magnificent in its final glory, slowly pass away. The day was almost gone. I felt that too, and age was gone. I was happy. -F. H. S. Cooper, VIA. .i1. TO THE BOTTOM OF THE CANYON If you ever ride down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon on mule-back, you will quite likely undergo an unforgettable experience such as that to which I was sub- jected. ' Your first view of the canyon is glorious enough, especially if you are so fortunate as to see it at sunset, when the hot, golden rays are rising slowly up the red sandstone cliffs, leaving the abyss, where the mighty Colorado seems to trickle in gloom a mile below. Someone helpful nearby, doubtless realizing from your enraptured look that this sight of the Great Ditch is your iirst, suggests that you go down to the bottom on mule-back. Since the price is reasonable enough, you will probably follow his suggestion. If you do, eight o'clock next morning will find you sitting rather nervously on your patient charge, waiting for the guide to give your party of eight the signal to start. Meanwhile, you can take comfort in the words of a booted westerner on the mule behind you, who says that no one has ever been killed on the trip yet. The guide's shout of Hey Mule electrifies your charge into an ambling walk without any help from your- self, and you realize that this is probably your mu1e's hundredth trip this year, and that since he'll probably want I' up . sig' ' 'I .D A 8 Q- SPORTS DAY XVINNERS Y! 4. . 1 1 I I I I I to K1gf7t:fD.V.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 to make a record of bringing a hundred people back safely. you need have no worries. The canyon drops to the river in a series of steps, the risers of which slope sharply to the next step. The nar- row, four foot wide mule trail switches back and forth down these sides, making very acute turns at the end of each switchback. At the turns, there is almost invariably a sheer drop of two or three hundred feet to the top of the next step, except at the beginning of the trail. The first two or three switchbacks are easily nego- tiated, but they become successively more alarming as you descend. According to your guide, the mule likes to see where he's going, so you let him have his head. Then you come to the first bad turn, the one with the five hundred foot drop below you. Your mule approaches it cautiously and starts to sidle round the turn. Suddenly his head stretches out over the edge. He leans forward. You wonder if he's like one of those people who get the urge to jump when on high places. He leans forward still more until it seems as if there is nothing between you and the earth below but five hundred and two feet, two feet of which are mule flesh. Your mule pauses for an instant. Is he making up his mind to jump or not? Had I better jump off myself? Maybe my feet will catch in the stirrup. All these thoughts flash through your mind in a split second. Then, with an unhappy grlmt, your mule grace- fully swings his neck around the curve, and somehow his body and you follow it around safely. Were you worried for a minute? Your guide tells you again that a mule like to see where he's going. He certainly does, you think to yourself, but he doesn't always go there, especially when it's five hundred feet below. -D. H. E. Cross, VIS. THE INVISIBLE MAN I am the unhappiest of men. Fate, like a gloomy nebulous cloud, has singled me out as her hapless victim. 64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Who am I? When the dark thunder clouds rumble omin- ously, when the spring grasses are stirred by soft mysterious breezes, I know, I feel Him. I was born long ago, so long ago in far off 'Madras My mother died when I was five years of age. She was an Indian, a Hindu, with big soft eyes and a little wisp of a figure, embalmed in an exotic, sensuous fragrance. That scent is the main memory I have of my mother and was the first inkling I had of Him. A father I never knew. I learnt from my aunt that he was an English tradesman, a representative of a small company. I myself, their only son, am more Indian than English. At the age of five my aunt, a widow, became my guardian. A big, extremely social-minded woman, she had no time for me. I was sent to an English boarding school for the next eleven years of my life. In the summers I went to an English camp. From the age of six to the age of seventeen, I saw my aunt only twice. Those eleven years stamped me for life. Being neither clever scholas- tically nor interested in sports, I withdrew more and more into myself. I stood aloof from my comrades and they from me, partly because of my race and partly, I think, from a slight feeling of awe. I had a trick of looking straight into somebody's eyes when I spoke and I never failed to move them. I often look into my own eyes in a glass. Profound things are there, snatches of sweet memory or shall I say awareness, penetrate me, then are gone. Through those long eleven years, I realized by slow degrees my dual nature, that simultaneously with my existence on earth, another part of myself was living a so much better life in a wonderful land. In my day dreams and those of the night the invisible man would communicate to me, his inferior, his loves, his happiness, his dangers, his despairs and his triumphs, all shrouded in a misty halo. Nature and the freedom of the beast appealed to me more and more. Lying on my back in the soft grass, looking up into the sky, would be my mode of life whenever possible for from there seemed to come the answer. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 Frustration, the all powerful emotion of my life was beginning to clutch my heart with fingers of velvet. I took to calling the invisible man Tantalus. He would make me feel that a key would open the locked doors of my con- sciousness the next second and allow knowledge to enter, but it never did. At the age of seventeen I became a teller in a bank and two years later married Anna, a lovely young woman, whose ways and manner stole my heart as completely as I, moody and mysterious, fascinated her. During the next ten years I became quite prominent and well-known socially. But happiness was never my destiny. The stars forbad it. A strange new development was shaping. More and more I knew what He was doing. His life was the glori- Iication of my own. Everything He did I began to do on a lesser scale. Why, I don't know. But He who guided my life held me captivated in bands of iron. I began to strive to equal him. His palatial mansion, encrusted in gems had the same architecture as my little suburban dwelling. His sighing gardens, made musical by night- ingales, was merely a superb improvement on my deserted lot rejoicing in the trills of thrushes. Thus it was I rose in life. Striving to equal him I had a goal. Alas, every time I had practically reached it, I failed. Frustration was poisoning my life with its insidious tendrils. Then at the age of forty came the devastating shock. The invisible man murdered his wife. A violent storm, streaks of lightning and I saw his wife stabbed in her bower, her face that of A.nna's, only much prettier. Beauti- ful Anna, lovely Anna, good Anna, loving her, yet obeying this fiendish alter ego, I know, I know that Anna will die by my hand. The curse is on me, all I have to do is wait. The only answer to the riddle is death. Then on the great day of judgment I will meet him, I will see the invisible man. -J. D. Ross, VA. .. 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IN ADVOCACY OF CORRECTIVE PUNISHMENT OF CRIMINAL OFFENCES These post-war years, with the increased crime rate and the heavy increase in the number of criminals, are full of discussions about those of our society who depart from the set rules of fairness. The taxpayer is especially in- terested, for it is he who must bear the burden of detain- ing and punishing these ever-increasing criminals. Natural- ly, it is to the best advantage of the taxpayer that those who have been appointed by the people to manage the people's affairs should find a system of punishment which reduces the number of criminals, and thus the cost of their upkeep in corrective institutions. First, however, let us take a brief glance at our prisons of to-day, relics of the notorious convict hulks, prison farms and such infamous institutions as Newgate in London, where the bodies and minds of convicts were broken down. Oscar Wilde wrote of these: The vilest deeds like poison-weeds Bloom well in prison-air: It is only what is good in Man That wastes and withers there. Of course the majority of our criminal houses to-day are better constructed, cleaner, and less damnable for the most part, but the essential purposes of prisons remain, and the manner in which these purposes are carried out has been passed down with not too much basic modifica- tion since the Dark Ages. The detention of convicted criminals in these places has a double object: first, keep- ing them away from lawful society, second, punishment. Punishment itself has two ultimate objects-its application is both for the benefit of society and the benefit of the in- dividual undergoing punishment. Now the effect of the prison on the individual is deterrence, by memory of his past punishment, from committing any further acts against his fellow men, and also the correction of his criminal tendencies and reformation of his character. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 The great majority of us do not try to deny that a certain amount of deterrence by actual physical punish- ment is necessary, especially after certain heinous crimesg the proverb Spare the rod and spoil the child has been put into practice with a degree of success since time im- memorial. However, in these supposedly progressive, modern days, in which psychology and common sense are said to be playing an ever increasing part, the method of correction should be more practical. First of all, criminals should be separated into special groups. based on their degrees of misbehaviour. There are certain hopelessly hardened cases for Whom no good can be done, but there are those Who are exactly the opposite, just beginning their delinquency, who should not be mixed with the worst of their kind. Probably the reason that they have ern- barked on a criminal life is that they are in despair of find- ing honest ways of earning a living in our society. They may have once been trying hard to get somewhere in life, but misfortune and those already at the top of the heap may have knocked them down just once too often. These men are yet reclaimable. The only way in which they can be saved from an im- moral, unjust existence, perhaps half-spent in prisons or Work-gangs, is by teaching them new trades and how to be better citizens and neighbours. An attempt to start this type of corrective system has been made in England. This is the Borstal System for reclaimables between the ages of sixteen and twenty-one, first inaugurated in 1902. It was founded on the same principle as the American state re- formatories, with some modifications. It has been exceed- ingly successful, and some Borstal institutions now exist in this country. The offending boy is sentenced for a fairly lengthy period, generally about three years, so that the treatment can have a durable effect. Craftsmanship and industrial and physical training are provided for, and an energetic, competitive spirit is injected into the boys by division into groups, or houses, which compete in sports and games. The boy is discharged with a promise of a secure job and a useful and productive life ahead of him, 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD in a field of work in which he has some interest, and for which he is suited. He is still aided and watched by Lmderstanding authorities, and generally turns out to be a better-than-average citizen of his country. This system is operated for only a comparatively small number of juvenile offenders. Why should it not be used for all age groups of criminals, who are, it is be- lieved, yet within possibility of reclamation? Now the critics of the system mention the cost of executing such a corrective manner of punishment. Of course, in the early stages of its development, the taxpayer would pay more for the detaining and punishment than he does at the pre- sent time for his stone prisons and penitentiaries. Yet, Within a generation or two the number of criminals would decrease to an unbelievable extent. Only those who are hardened criminals would remain, and even the number of those would dwindle, if they were corrected and ,sent back to honest labour at the beginning of trouble. These past few lines may seem too far in the future to be believable or practical, but Why should not our grandsons be able to tell their children that they are grow- ing up in a nation that has been freed to a. great extent from the toils of Wrong-doers and lawbreakers? All of us, for we are the responsible fathers of the future, should set our common will to providing better corrective penal sys- tems for those neighbours of ours who have been led from the paths of honest men. -D.

The grey skies didn't help to brighten the situation and only two old colours were back on the roster: Rick Gaunt, the captain, and Jerry Paterson, vice-captain. Throughout the spring' training, the team seemed doomed for a poor season. Two members were straight from the J.S. and the rest picked from last year's mighty middlesiders. The first few games bore out this estimate, but the team steadily improved under the guiding hands of Mr. Lewis, Hal Wilson, and Mr. Gwynne-Timothy, and through the dogged persever- ance of all the members of the squad. After losing their first two games, the team rolled up decisive victories before tying Ridley in a thriller to retain their Little Big Four Cricket laurels. The first game saw the Old Boys win by 65-55. In the second game the Kappa A1pha's, led by Forbes' brilliant 31 and Scandrelt's 23 not out, defeated the School handily 94-75. High scorer for the losers was Paterson with 27 runs. Over the half-term break the team tied Dentonia Cricket Club on Saturday, in a game halted by rain after the Toronto Club had scored 101 for 8. The School replied with only 11 runs for 2 wickets. On the following Monday the team gained their initial victory taking the measure of the Oshawa Cricket Club 68 for 9 to 56 all out. Gaunt's nine wickets for twenty-two runs and Paterson's twenty- five runs featured the game. Then the School showed much 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD batting finesse in pounding a 151 to 85 victory over the Toronto Cricket Club, Ketchum batting an excellent innings of fifty not out. In the next three games the School suc- cessfully defended their title by defeating S.A.C., U.C.C. and tying B.R.C. In a postseason match during the Upper School exams, they finished off the year by defeating Oshawa 52-45 led by Gaunt's bowling which took seven wickets and the batting of Brodeur with nineteen runs. This year's team created some very fine records. In batting particularly, the School displayed great power. In three successive games, against the Toronto Cricket Club, S.A.C., and U.C.C., the team managed to pile up more than one hundred runs per match, which is quite a feat in school cricket. In the U.C.C. game the opening batsmen, .Ierry Paterson and Nige Thompson, created what appears to be a Canadian record when they defeated U.C.C. single-handed without being put out, by scoring 106 runs before Paterson retired with sixty-one, and later Thompson with fifty. In the Ridley game another record was setg a tie in a cham- pionship game. The fielding was good, not a catch dropped in Little Big Four competition, and the bowling above average with Gaunt, Paterson and Cox carrying the load. Rick Gaunt, one of the best cricketers ever seen at the School, was a very able captain and the most valuable player on the team. He led the team in bowling, was an outstanding fielder, and a strong bat. This year's vice- captain, Jerry Paterson, was the best bat on the team, getting not less than twenty runs in any of the four major games. He was also a steady fielder and bowler. Both Gaunt and Paterson were awarded distinction caps for their fine showing this year. Nige Thompson, although having a difficult time behind the wicket, showed much promise and was voted the most improved player award. His batting became better as the season progressed, climaxed by his fine stint of fifty not out against U.C.C. Cox bowled well all year, and was a good fielder. Wismer showed strength at bat, as did Brodeur i. Cooper ii did some bowling and steadily improved in all fields. Of the ex-J.S. boys, Ketchum ii exhibited great promise in his ,, v , S- s- A '. , .

At Aurora, June 2. Won 132-98 The School won the first game in defense of the Little Big Four Championship which they won last year, defeat- ing S.A.C. 132-98. S.A.C. batted first and managed to score only ninety- eight runs in three and a half hours. Errington with twenty-two and Browne with seventeen runs batted well for S.A.C. and were the only two who had any success with the T.C.S. bowling. Paterson with four wickets for thirty- three runs and Gaunt who took three for twenty-six were the most effective bowlers for the School. T.C.S. went into bat after tea and at once began to hit up runs very quickly. and within two hours had scored one hundred and thirty-two runs all out to win the match. The first batters did well. Paterson got twenty runs, Brodeur got sixteen and Thompson thirteen. However, the next few wickets fell very rapidly and it was only due to a good last stand by Wismer with thirty-six and Cooper with seventeen runs that saved the day for the School. We had lost seven wickets for only seventy-two runs when Wismer went in, and eight for seventy-six runs when Cooper came to bat. Slowly the score crept upwards until finally Cooper hit the winning run. When our ninth wic- ket went down we had one hundred and twenty-nine runs. Hargreave was S.A.C.'s best bowler, taking five wickets for forty. while Clavell took two for twenty-five runs. S.A.C. Innings Browne, c. Brodeur, b. Cox ........... ............ 1 7 Hargreave b.

Won 167-87 Bigside Won their second Little Big Four game by decisively defeating Upper Canada here by a score of 167 for 2 to 87 all out. Trinity's opening batters, Paterson and Thompson, between them, ran up a suflicient score to de- feat the visitors. U.C.C. batted first and led by Orr, Cooper, and Bussell Who scored 24, 18, and 12 runs respectively, ran up a total of 89 before their last Wicket fell. Gaunt and Cox were the most effective bowlers for Trinity, Gaunt taking six Wickets for thirty-nine and Cox three for seventeen. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 When Trinity's turn came, Paterson and Thompson both batted superbly and ran up a score of one hundred and five before Paterson retired with sixty-one runs. Thompson continued until he had made his half-century and then also retired. This first Wicket stand is believed to be unparalleled in Canadian cricket history. Gaunt was Trinity's next highest scorer, making twenty-seven runs in fifteen minutes before retiring. U.C.C. succeeded in getting only two men out and four T.C.S. players did not bat. U.C.C.

Tied 65-65 In what was undoubtedly the most exciting cricket game of many years, the First XI tied Ridley 65-65, at the Toronto Cricket Club. This left the two teams deadlocked for the Little Big Four Cricket Championship, thus leaving the School in possession of the title for the second year in a row. 74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Ridley batted first and the first four batsmen were retired for eight runs, due mainly to three good catches by Gaimt, Bruce and Paterson, and Gaunt's fine bowling in which he bowled ten maiden overs, nine of them con- secutively, in the first twelve. Seven wickets had fallen for thirty-one runs, when Digby and Williams made a stand, the latter getting thirteen runs, which added nine- teen more runs to the Ridley total. Finally, soon after lunch, the side was retired for sixty-five runs. The wic- kets fell in rather an odd way, the first six men being caught and the remaining four bowled. Gaunt bowled very well, getting five wickets for sixteen runs, while Cox with four for twenty-four and Paterson accounted for the remainder. There were sixteen byes. The School started off badly with Thompson being rim out with only eight runs on the board. The next two wickets fell fast, but Gaunt and Paterson made a stand. Gaunt hit a dashing sixteen but was caught at wickets. Then Paterson put on a good display holding up his end well as the wickets fell rapidly, until he was finally bowled by Thompson after making twenty-five runs. The score slowly rose until Cooper stroked the tying counter, but before the School could push across the deciding nm, Bom'ne bowled the last two wickets on successive balls. Bourne's bowling was very steady, and he gained eight wickets for only thirty-two runs, while Thompson took the remaining wicket. Ridley Innings Rainbok, c. Gaunt, b.

In games with other schools, different boys shone on different occasions to gain a record of three wins, one loss, and one draw. '76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In their opening match, with some bowling reinforce- ments from Bigside, they took the measure of the Lakeiield First XI, 77-37. Cooper took six wickets for fifteen runs while Brodeur 127 J and Mackenzie 1221 led the batters. In their next game, Middleside again employed outside aid in the form of Harold Wilson 165, retiredl and Mr. Gwynne- Timothy 14 wickets for 8 runsl to smother Peterborough 107-24. Hughes with twenty-four runs was the best of the T.C.S. schoolboys. The return game at Lakefield showed a complete reversal of form, when despite Brodeur's twenty, the Grove, led by Reeve's sixty-five, scored an easy win, 125-67. Middleside atoned for this, however, with a thrilling 138- 64 victory over the U.C.C. Seconds when Greenwood took the last wicket on the last ball before stumps were to be drawn. The only outside support the team received in this game was the importation of some of the baseballers. Greenwood 1301, Hughes ii 1265, and Hall 123, not outl were best for T.C.S. Middleside closed the season with a draw here against Peterborough, when there was not enough time to finish the T.C.S. innings after Peterbor- ough's 103. At the close, T.C.S. had 42 for 4 with D1'ynan's fourteen runs the best effort. At the end of the season, Greenwood was awarded the prize for the best bat, and Hughes ii the prize for the best bowler. But it was the keenness of all the players, led by Mcllntyre, Mr. Gwynne-Timothy's right-hand man, that led to a Middleside season that was better than it has been for several years. Members of the team included: McIntyre, Howard, Conyers, Hughes i, Hughes ii, Maier, Mackenzie, Harris i, Vallance, Greenwood, Paterson ii, Woods ii, Drynan, Thompson . LITILESIDE CRICKET, 1948 Littleside this year was again divided into A and B squads. Mr. Bagley coached Littleside A and Mr. Dening took over the Littleside B duties. Littleside A was made TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 up mostly of last year's J.S. team and proved to be a strong squad. They had only three games, one with S.A.C. and two with U.C.C. We lost the S.A.C. game which was played here in the midst of a rainstorm, thus making batting and fielding difficult. The final score was 63-30. Cooper iii starred in bowling, taking most of St. Andrew's wickets and McRae batted excellently. In the first U.C.C. game played here we defeated the College by quite a wide margin, 42-24. Cooper iii led the batters with a fine innings of twenty-three runs, and Osler's good bowling was largely responsible for U.C.C.'s small score. The School also won the return game with Upper Canada in a some- what closer match, 44-38. Cooper again bowled well, aided by McKinnon's excellent fielding. Arklay and Church made a good stand and Arklay was high scorer for the game. McKinnon ii captained the team well and was a steady bat and the team's best fielder. Cooper iii and Osler both bowled extremely well throughout the season and at the end their averages differed by only .2W. Osler was given the ball for the best bowler. Cooper iii led the team in runs during the season and received the bat for the highest average. Vandenbergh was a very steady wicket- keeper and Church was good all-round. Littleside B was made up of an enthusiastic group, but with little cricket experience. They played two games, home and home matches with Lakefield. Unfortunately they lost both, but showed great promise against a much stronger Lakefield squad. i. 11- CRICKET COLOURS, 1948 First Team Colours-Gaunt lcapt.J, Paterson lvice-capt.l, Brodeur i, Cooper ii, Cox, Thompson i, Wismer.

UPPER CANADA RELAYS At Toronto, May 26 In the inter-school track meet held at U.C.C. on May 26, five schools competed: Upper Canada, St. Andrew's, University of Toronto Schools, Pickering College, and T.C.S. It could not have been a more perfect day to run off the events. With a substantial crowd cheering on the competitors, Bob Bazos again stood out for Upper Canada, breaking records in the javelin, discus and hurdles. Our only first was captured by Alec Hughes who threw the shot-put thirty-eight feet. In tthe senior events we came second in the javelin, hurdles, broad-jump and the mile relay. In the junior events, Gundy and Ashton did well for the School, taking second place in the high jump, shot- put and broad jump. The final results showed that we came fourth out of the five schools.

The final day, Sports Day, had to be postponed for a week because of poor weather. Six new records were set, three of them in senior competition. Alex Hughes threw the javelin 140 ft. 6 ins., to better the old record by eleven and a half feet. In the high hurdles, Deverall cut a full second off the old mark, running the 120 yards in 16.2 seconds. Gaunt made a toss of 101 yards 9 ins. in the cricket ball throw, adding three inches to the record set last year by Brewer. In the intermediate, Bruce Little pole-vaulted 8 ft, LLM ins. for a new record, while in the junior, Hoffman established a new mark, tossing the cricket ball 96 yds. 7 ins. Hoffman also broke a record in the junior discus, heaving it 65 feet. Brent House finally wrested the Inter-House Sports Day Cup from Bethune which had held it for the last six years. Brent athletes won all three relays and compiled 198 points to defeat Bethune by 76 points. The Daykin Cup for the senior aggregate champion was won this year by Deverall who made 18 points and came first in the high jump, pole vault and hurdles. Pierce won the intermediate championship with eighteen points also, winning the high jump, broad jump and hurdles. The highest junior aggre- gate was twenty-six points made by Hoffman who won the shot put, discus, cricket ball throw and the 220. 100 yards- Senior-I. F. H. Rogers. 10.7 sec. Intermediate--M. J.

TENNIS Tennis has always been a favorite spring sport here at Trinity, but this year more boys played it than ever before. Naturally this leads to a terrific congestion of the courts, so for this reason, two new grass courts were put up directly in front of the Memorial Cross. These two courts were put into excellent shape by Mr. Tappenden and his helpers, and our grateful thanks go to them. Three tennis tournaments were held, and all were Very closely contested. In the Doubles Tournament, Mc- pherson beat Drummond in the semi-finals 6-4, 4-6, 6-13 while Rogers i beat Hall 6-4, 4-6 and 8-6. Both these matches were exceptionally well played and some very good tennis was shown. In the finals, Mcpherson beat Rogers i 6-2, 6-1 in a very exciting match which was closer than the score indicates. In the Junior Tournament, Ketchum ii defeated Maier quite handily 6-1, 6-1, although some good tennis was shown by them both. All in all, the temiis season was most successful, the weather was fa welcome changej for the most part, ideal. We should like to thank Mr. Humble and Goodbody who managed tennis so successfully this year. 11-1.1-.l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 83 S' E I Jwmuoti 'YCCGUQ L it tom JUNIOR SCHOOL DIRECTORY C DORMITORY H.

We have made good progress in academic work, especially in the two senior formsg our teams have had very successful seasons in all sportsg the general health of the School has been good. While expressing satisfaction over all this, we must not be content to rest on our laurels. Our aim next year must be to do even better. The Junior School extends hearty congratulations to Peter Martin on winning the Rev. C. J. S. Bethune Scholar- ship, and to Charles Taylor for his excellent standing in the Senior School Entrance Scholarship papers. These two boys have contributed a great deal this year towards raising the standard of work in the Third Form by their fine example of honest application and high endeavour. The sincere thanks of all members of the Gym. Eight to McDowell, Thompson and Welsford for all the time they gave in helping us along. The Gym. Team owes much to their unfailing patience and interest. Jim Barber was once again a great help to the First Cricket XI, with his steady and patient coaching not for- getting also his sterling work as a groundsman. Many thanks, Jim! Congratulations to Bob McDerment on his innings of fifty-one runs retired against the Grove. Our sincere thanks to Peter Williamson for the books he presented to the Library. It was a great pleasure to the writer and, I am sure, to many of the older ex-J.S. boys in the Senior School to see Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Yates together with their two sons here on Inspection Day. We hope that this may be the first of many such visits. Best wishes to all members of the Junior School for an enjoyable Summer Holidays.

A large number of Old Boys have written to say that the establishment of such an annual fund to enable Worthy boys from less well-off families to attend T.C.S. is a most estimable objective and have given generous support. As of July 1st the fund reached the total of 551,943.05 and many contributions are still expected. George Hees originated the idea of the fund at the Active Service reunion and it was he who made the first contribution, and a large one. The donations are grouped according to the year of graduation of the contributors and the individual amounts are given in each case. 106 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Classes of '80-'89 T. T.
