5 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD HALLOWE'EN PARTY There was no study on the night of October 31 to enable the school to participate in the annual celebration of Hallowe'en. By 7:30 everyone had gathered in the gymnasium for the obstacle race. About half of the New Boys were assembled in teams of equal number representing Brent and Bethune. Two of the Prefects raced around the course to demonstrate the proper method before the race began. Amid loud cheering from the balcony Bethune gradually pulled ahead, winning by nearly a lap. The school then moved downstairs to the swimming pool into which had been emptied two bushels of apples. The remaining New Boys were soon in the pool, bobbing for the apples. When the results had been totalled, it was announced that Bethune House had again emerged victorious - by nine apples. Following this, the Privileges were hosts to the New Boys at a feast of doughnuts and apple cider in the Hall. This was followed by a sing song led by the Prefects. NEW BOYS' PICNIC This year there were two New Boys' picnics, one for the Third Form New Boys and the other for the Fourth Form. The former was held on the second Sunday of the term and the latter a week later. Usually, several Prefects take an unplanned dip but this year the situation was reversed when a few New Boys ended up in the lake. After some riotous games of football and baseball, the wonderful array of food was laid out and everyone settled down to the feast. NEW BOYS' PICNIC: OBJECT, FOOD -Photo by Hamlin

10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD AN EXCURSION TO MOSPORT On Saturday, September 30, a bus load of sports car enthusiasts journeyed to Mosport to watch the Canadian Grand Prix, the first in Canadian history. Leaving after the Bigside football game with R.M.C., We arrived just in time, for the race was about to begin. As we hurried to see the start, we were deafened by various deep-throated roars as the sleek Formula One cars warmed up. Since the race would take two hours, we spread out over the course in order to get a good vantage point at the hair-pin turn on the south end of the Track. Because of the numerous sharp turns devised in true European style, speeds were kept within a reasonable limit. The fastest lap time speed was only ninety miles ner hour, while on the short straightaway at the pits, it was a mere one hundred and forty miles per hour! The rare soon became a personal contest between Oliver Gendebien and the famous Stirling Moss, both driving identical green Lotuses. All the other cars were left behind as these two superb drivers changed positions many times throughout the race. Then Moss required two lengthy pit stops, which dropped him to sixth place. Soon after, Gendebien was forced to retire from the race. And so it was, with fifteen laps to go, Canada's own Peter Ryan took a substantial lead. Moss, trying hard to catch up, set a new track record but finished in third place, just behind Pedro Rodriguez. We all thought it very fitting that a Canadian should win the first Grand Prix, and so, in a happy frame of mind, we journeyed back to the School, somewhat delayed by the traffic jam. , . , -VN ,..-.
