TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 B. F. Lackie C60-'65D After a successful year in Boulden House, Bart appeared at the doors of Brent House with his usual broad grin on his face. As a New Boy, he played league football, received colours in Littleside Hockey, and was Captain of Littleside Cricket. He was also active in the Junior Political Science Club. In Fourth Form, still flashing his uppers, Bart played Littleside Football, Middleside Hoc- key, Where he received his colours, and Middle- side Cricket. The following year Bart reverted to league football, but made up for it by playing Bigside Hockey. He was a lumberjack in the Pat Moss Club and became a member of the Billiards Club. As a climax, he was given the honour, awarded to out- standing Fifth Form boys, of being appointed a House Officer. In his final year Bart became Assistant Captain of Middleside Foot- ball, and received colours for Bigside Hockey, in which he was the star goalie. He further heightened his kudos by remaining a member of the Billiards Club. And he was reappointed a House Officer. Because of this, and because he never enjoyed being a part of the rank-and-file, he was appointed a Flight Sergeant in the Colour Party. Bart was a truly genial person, whose flashy smile and tremendous get-up-and-go earned him a fine reputation and contributed much to his highly successful career at T.C.S. We wish him all the best of luck at Queen's. W? D. Laing C60-'65J Dave entered the Senior ' 1 . - , School from Boulden House in 1961 and immedi- :C se tif. ately showed himself a boy of great intelligence .4 X - ' by choosing Bethune House as his base of opera- tions for the coming years. As a member of IIIA V W. 5 and a native Quebecois, he felt it wise to join the D K, French Club, but even at this time Dave's in- g c 1 , Y terest in the sciences, especially mathematics. ran very high, and he became a member of the Science Club. In Fourth Form, Dave was again found in the French Club, this time as Secretaryg and he also was in the Science Club again. Who can forget the countless hair-raising experiments with deadly explosives he performed when Mr. Lewis' back was turned? But this year was a particularly special one for Dave and for the school, as it marked his entry into the Camera Club. His outstanding pro- ficiency in this art won him first prize in the Photography Competition, and he was to lead photography to new heights within the school. That same year, whenever he could tear himself away from the darkroom, he lent his talents to the Swimming Team. In Fifth Form, he was Secretary of his class, President of the Camera Club, and the Photographic Editor of the Record. His tremen- dous aptitude for mathematics was shown this year, and he decided to join the chosen few for Problems with Mr. Corbett. Sixth Form was truly a year crowning Dave's achievements at T.C.S

16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Electrical Crew in their mammoth job of lighting the stage for the Christmas entertainment, and, more especially for the School's Centen- nial production H1865 and All That . Mark's other interests in his senior year included the Billiards Club, in which he constantly defeated S. G. Smith hy vast scores, managing Bigside Basketball, and leading the lum- berjacks at the Pat Moss camp, for which he received the well-deserved Pat Moss Award on Speech Day. During the summers of 1964 and 1965 Mark gave up part of his holidays, to be an efficient and useful coun- sellor at the Trinity Camp. For his commitments to the school, and for his varied contributions to school life, he was appointed a House Officer, a position well earned by all his fine efforts. The school wishes Mark all the best as he moves on to the Arts faculty at Bishop's University. J. R. C. Irvine C60-'65J School Prefect Dur- ing his short stay in Boulden House, Rick, or Croft as he was called, identified himself as an athlete of great prowess by playing on both First Cricket and First Football, and he brought this athletic reputation with him as he entered the hallowed halls of Brent in September of 1961. In Third Form he came second in the New Boy race and played Littleside Hockey and Middle- side Cricket. And then, just to prove that he had cultural as well as athletic interests, he bal- anced the intellectual side by joining the Junior Political Science Club. As well as this, he was elected Secretary to his class. ln Fourth Form Rich expanded his athletic pursuits to include the Tennis Team. Littleside Football, Middleside Hockey, the Oxford Cup, in which he finished third, and Bigside Cricket. In addition to this, he lent his voice to the very successful production of Iolanthe . By the time Fifth Form rolled around, Rick's athletic endeavours included the Tennis team, of which he was singles champion, Middleside Football, second place in the Oxford Cup, Bigside Hockey, and Bigside Cricket CLBF championsl. He also became a member of the Pat Moss Club. And for all his many contributions to the school, he was appointed a llouse Officer. Sixth Form for Rich was a year of unparalleled activity. He was appointed a School Prefect early in the year, and in this capacity helped to make the Centennial Year the great success that it was. In athletics Rich was as busy as ever, with Bigside Football, Hockey, and Cricket, and the Tennis team. He also won the doubles in Tennis and Badmin- ton, as well as retaining the Tennis singles championship. On top of all this, he served as his class representative to the Student Council. All those of us who knew Rich during his five years at T.C.S. will remember him for his warm personality and his happy sense of humour. And we will join in wishing him the best of everything as he continues his studies at Colby College.

18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Again he was Photographic Editor of the Record and President of the Camera t'lub. That year, his well concealed but intense interest in sports asserted itself. for he became Captain of a Middleside League football team, and worked his way up to a position on the Squash Team. For his achievements at the school he was made a House Officer. No account of David Laing would be complete without some men- tion ot' his unique sense of humour. He was a master of mimicry, and could have people beside themselves with laughter at his impressions of individuals who would probably prefer to remain anonymous. He was also a master of Modern Dance, and had there been a club of this kind at the school he undoubtedly would have led it. , On Speech Day 1965, he won the Jubilee Exhibition for Maths, the Photography Prize, a special prize for assistance on the Record and the Sixth Form Science Prize. Dave was a great contributor to the school, and both his practical jokes and tremendous sense of humour will be sorely missed. R. A. G. MacNab C57-'65J Assistant Head Prefect Out of the wild stretches of Newfound- land, skates slung over his shoulder, and hum- ming My Own Dear Land , Gordie arrived, in all his glory, at Boulden House. But it wasn't for several years, however, after Mick,', as he was also called, had been Triple Captain, winner of the Paterson Cup for two years, and Hamil- ton Bronze Medal winner, that the Senior School was graced with his presence, and his continual remark, The 'Wings'll take it this year. When Gordie arrived, or rather, blew in, all ninety-eight pounds of him, he continued to show that he was one of the best athletes the school has ever seen, for as a New Boy, he played Middleside Football, and both Bigside Hockey and Cricket. In his next year he became a mem- ber of Bigside Football, and played on the Independent Schools Cham- pionship Hockey Team, winning a Distinction Cap for his outstanding effort. That same year, he was also elected to the Pat Moss Club. Then The Mouse advanced to Fifth Form, still backing the Wings, and still humming My Own Dear Land . He was elected vice-captain of Football and Captain of Hockey, where he was voted the Most Valu- able Player, and in the spring, wearing elevator cricket boots, he was awarded the Best Fielder's Prize for his work behind the stumps on the L.R.F. Championship Team. Also in this same year, Gordie was an Executive in the Pat Moss Club, and President of his class. On Speech Day he won the Jack Maynard Memorial Trophy, as well as being Runner- Up for the Grand Challenge Cup. In his Sixth Form year, Gordie changed his tune - now it was Dream Lover instead, but from the way he sang it, it sounded more like the Funeral March. Nevertheless, he went on to achieve the phe- nomenal: to become Triple Captain, and again winner of the Jack May- nard Trophy. In Ilockey he was again awarded the Most Valuable Player Trophy and was the best fielder on the Cricket team, which won its second I..I-LF. Vhampionship. In this, his final year, he was appointed flfssisltant Ilead Prefect, and was the winner of the Grand Challenge rop v.
