TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 for meals. Movie leave was granted on a couple of nights and the group had their own movies and cameras. On Sunday, the players attended the churches in Port Hope. Besides the normal equipment used by a football team, the Argos brought two rubbing tables, a diathermy ma- chine, seven-man sleds, two-man bucking machines, blocking dummies, Gilman pads, three movie projectors and screens, and last but not least, 32 footballs. For the players there were 1,000 yards of tape and 1,000 yards of electrician's tape for ankles. The laundry in Port Hope was extremely busy, with 350 towels a day as well as 125 practise shirts, 25 T-shirts and 125 pairs of socks. For the oversized players, 15 large beds were rented as well as larger desks for the classes. The Argos were here in the middle of the heat wave and so were often practising in 90-degree heat. The cooler from the Tuck Shop was brought over to the basement of Bethune and 48 cases of 7-Up were supplied for the players to drink. No outsiders were allowed on the grounds. but the townspeople were allowed to watch from the Tuck Shop. The players left on August 7, after what they termed a very enjoyable stay and many hoped that the team would come back next year. DRAMATIC CLUB The first meeting of the Dramatic Club was held on the evening of Monday, September 26, in the Guild Room. Elec- tions were held and the following were the results: Presi- dent, Michael Meigheng Vice-president, Dave Ross: Secre- tary, Bill Noble, Treasurer, Trevor Ham, and Committee Member, Jerry Spivak. It was agreed that auditions for those who wished to join should be held at once. With Mr. Scott kindly acting again as director, the society looks forward to another successful season.

10 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD wells shouted, and a silent and mournful ski camp relaxed under the late summer sun. To us it may have appeared like another vacation in our busy summer holidays, but to the boys here it was a vivid experience which will bring light to the darkest days of the coming year. As one of the campers so aptly worded it, he spent last year numbering the days until he could come again for another rollicking season at Trinity Camp. I know all the boys are indebted to the Pat Moss Club for their unending efforts in securing funds for the camp, and also for their work in digging a garbage pit and erecting a backstop. A vote of thanks to this diligent organization, and may it continue its good work. In addition, Tony Ketchum has written an excellent report on the difficulties we faced at the camp, and how to overcome them, which has been placed in the minutes of the Pat Moss Club. Last of all, we wish to thank the student body of T.C.S. for freely donating the funds to make this camp a success, and we foresee that next year, with your co-operation, it will con- tinue its benencial work. THE VISIT OF THE TORONTO ARGONAUTS On July 29, the Argos arrived here at T.C.S. for a strenuous eight-day training period. The 43 players were confined to the grounds and allowed no friends, relatives or cars around while they were in training. The rising bell sounded at 7:30, breakfast at 8:00, and after a hard day's work, curfew was at 11:00. The team had two practices daily with classes at night. Shirts, ties and jackets were the dress worn to meals and downtown. The team slept in the Senior School, but as the new addition to the kitchen was not finished they ate in the Junior School. It seems that the boys got into the room where the drums and trumpets are kept for the band, and weird noises were heard on numerous occasions as they marched to the Junior School

A vote was taken and the following were elected to the executive: President, Michael Meigheng Vice-President, Mac Campbell, and Secretary, Dave Dunlap. Regular meetings are not scheduled to begin until after the football season, but preparations were begun for the opening debate at Ridley on November 18. The club will again be under the excellent guidance of Mr. Dale and it is hoped that this year T.C.S. will become undisputed holders of the Fulford Trophy. FRENCH CLUB The opening meeting of the French Club was held on Friday, September 23. The first business was the holding of an election. The results were as follows: President, Michael Meigheng Secretary, Mac Campbell. Once again under the capable leadership of Mr. Bishop and with a large and enthusiastic membership coupled with a revised programme, an excellent season is expected. i THEM.P.ANDS.TlE A new tie has been introduced into the School which is limited to the use of Masters, Prefects and Scholars iboys with averages of 75 per cent up in term workl. The background is deep maroon. The design features part of the School crest, a crossed key and bishop's crook in silver, surmounted by a St. Edward's crown in gold. This small design is repeated over the whole tie. This type of design is similar to that of the ties used by clubs and colleges in England. It is completely new for our School, as all ties were composed of stripes up to this time.
