7.1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD goal and this was followed ten seconds later by another Trinity goal when Long took McDerment's pass and cleanly beat Chamandy in the Upper Canada nets. Two more counters by Church, each assisted by his linemates Wright and MacGregor, finished the T.C.S. scoring. U.C.C. put on the pressure towards the end of the game and suc- ceeded in adding two more goals to their total, Thompson from Hogarth, and Weir unassisted. The Trinity squad showed the U.C.C. spectators in the third period that they could play hockey and during this time, Bill Church was the outstanding player on the ice. For Upper Canada, the line of Walroth, Brown, and Thompson were the big guns, being in on six of their team's nine goals. T.C.S.-Arklay, Bruce, Robertson R., McDerment, Long, Currie, Church, Wright, MacGregor, Roffey, Ketchum, Yale, New comb, McCaughey. U.C.C. -H Chamandy, Murray, McDonald, Walroth, Brown, Thompson, Hogarth, Standing, Weir, Thomas, Lindsay, Birrell, O'Connor, Metcalfe, Leak. ii . .. . T.C.S. vs. PICKERING At Port Hope, January 27. Won 11-1 Pickering's first hockey team travelled to Port Hope to play their initial game with Trinity and suffered a decisive 11-1 defeat by the high scoring maroon and black team. From the very beginning, Pickering were clearly no match for the home team, and were often bottled up in their own end. McDerment scored first on a goal mouth scramble from Wright and Currie: a short time later, Wright scored on a quick shot to the corner of the net, on a pass from the corner from Church and Ketchum. Although a shortage of defensemen forced the Trinity for- wards to double up, T.C.S. managed to outmanoeuvre the visitors who were very slow in starting their plays. The period's scoring was completed when McDerment and Currie combined on a nice passing play to give the School a 3-0 lead. At the very start of the second period, from a face off inside the Pickering blue line, McDerment passed to Robertson who relayed the puck to Long with another

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 4-, T.C.S. vs. UPPER CANADA COLLEGE At Toronto, Jan-uary 24. Lost 9-4 Playing in the great, gloomy mausoleum that is Maple Leaf Gardens in the day time, with gusts of hot air sweep- ing across the ice surface, the School firsts were soundly defeated by Upper Canada in a wide open and often rugged game. The first two periods saw a slow and very sluggish Trinity team hand the home squad seven goals without retaliation. In the first period, with MacGregor of T.C.S. serving an early penalty for tripping, Upper Canada applied pressure until Thompson scored, banging home Macdona1d's rebound. Once the ice was broken, there was no stopping the U.C.C. squad, and they quickly added two more goals, Hogarth from Standing, and Walroth from Thompson and Brown. Birrell of Upper Canada received two minor penalties during the period, but each time the U.C.C. defence tightened up and came up with two good penalty-killing jobs. At the start of the second period the School was again slow and before the one minute mark, Brown on a pass from Walroth gave the College a 4-0 lead. Two minutes later, Lindsay increased the lead on a nice solo rush. By the eight minute mark, Thomas had scored assisted by Brown, and Walroth fired home the puck to culminate a nice passing play from his line mates Thompson and Brown. The Trinity forwards then began to do some effective backchecking which held Upper Canada score- less for the remainder of the period, but they themselves were unable to break into the scoring column despite two more minor penalties to Birrell. With two minutes of play remaining in the period, a mild fracas occurred in front of the T.C.S. bench, and when the officials had quieted all concerned, they gave roughing penalties to Church and MacGregor of the School, and Birrell and Macdonald of the Blue and Whites. With both teams two men short, the score remained at 7-0. The third period found the Upper Canada team tired and the Trinity squad determined that they would not be shut out. The second line, led by Church, paced the School team. Church from MacGregor shot the opening Trinity

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T5 Trinity goal as the result. Three minutes later Wright made it 5-0 on passes from Bruce and Church. Pickering fought back, and a long screen shot by Underhill was good for a goal, with Mencik receiving the assist. Gord Currie took a pass from McDerment and let go a hard shot which made the score 6-1 for Trinity. Church received the first penalty of the game for boarding, and he was followed sec- onds later by Wright for hooking. McDerment, Robertson, and Bruce came up with a magnificent penalty-killing dis- play to stop the Pickering squad from becoming dangerous. McDerment snared the puck and was off on a clean break- away, but missed the net from close in. Church stepped on the ice, picked up a pass from McDerment and Bruce. and slapped home another goal. When Wright returned to the ice, he gave a perfect pass to Church again who scored to make the count read 8-1. This ended the action in the period. At the beginning of the final period, Pickering were holding their own and even threatening until the five minute mark when a second breakaway paid off for Bob McDerment. That seemed to cause the visitors to slacken in their efforts, and Currie scored on a pass from Mc- Derment behind the net. While Maguire was off for kneeing, Ketchum completed the scoring on a pass from Wright. Underhill was given a dumping penalty and the game ended before his two minutes were completed. Bob McDerment with three goals and four assists, and Ken Wright with two goals and three assists lead the winners, while Maguire was the most aggressive player for Pickering. Jim Arklay also was good in goal for Trinity. T.C.S.---Arklay, Bruce, Robertson, McDerment, Long, Currie, Church, Wright, MacGregor, Yale, Ketchum, Newcomb.
