To those who knew him, Canon lYoollcombc was a sympathetic and understanding teacher, who appreciated the unpredictable activities of schoolboys, but stood no nonsense. He was a firm disciplinarian, just in his dealings and quick to forgive and forget. During Canon XYoollcombe's regime Ashbury developed into one of Canadas best schools, known nationally for its excellence in academic, athletic and character training. This high standard was due to the Founders unbounded energy, his scholarliness and his capacity to administer the increasingly intricate organization of a boarding school. The hundreds of young men who attended the School under Canon lYoolcombe's headmastership will remember his amazing memory. Even in his 84-th year, on the occasion of his autumn visit to the School, he was able to recall for the benefit of many Old Boys' sons numerous incidents associated with their fathers' schoolboy careers. May Ashbury long cherish the 7Il67lI07'.V of its d V7Iz'l7lliC F01111der,' and 11my those of Its who are privileged to' carry 011, be guided by his kirtdlirzess, his se11se of fair play and the example of his Christian cnharacter. 4 THE ASHBURIAN ASHBURY COLLEGE Rocxcrn-sri: PARK, O'r'rAwA VISITOR Field Marshal, The Right Honourable Earl Alexander of Tunis, K.G.

A. NIcCL'L1.OcH Q.M.S. G. NL'PfNI.AN THE ASHBURI.-IN ll EDITQRIAL DNTRARY to the impressions of many people, the history of the boarding school in its present form is relatively brief. The system began in England and derived from nothing more glorious than the business acumen of a set of gentlemanly hotel keepers. At a time when commuting was difiicult and slow, they saw the possibilities of profit in providing living quarters close to established schools. The original housemaster was little more than the operator of a boarding house for school boys, he made his own rules for conduct in boarding house, set whatever fees he felt the traliic would bear and supplied food and comforts within his calculated scheme of profit. Gradually, this simple design was whirled centrifugally into the larger orbit and more complicated pattern of what became known as the English Public School System. This pattern involved more than a syllabus of academic training, it formed a humanistic mould of nation wide infiuence, it built a code which gradually assumed the proportions and importance of a philosophy comparable to those of the Golden Age of Greece. In an emulative age, this system was transplanted, bolus bolus, to Canada. The latter quarter of the eighteenth century in Canada, its muscles surfeited with the hewing down of forests and of Redskins, was apt soil for a transplanting of culture, and from this seed-time was reaped the exotic harvest of the boarding school-a harvest which, as it seems to this writer, has supplied a certain dehnite need of our continent as well as has any other import, and perhaps better than have most. The first school of the sort in Canada was Kings College School. at VVindsor, Ontario, founded in 1788, to be followed in the next hundred odd years by many others across the continent. Ashbury itself was founded in the year 1891. Antiquity, limiting the terms to those years which lie behind contemporary experience, appeals to the imagination. In thinking back on the sixty-one years of Ashbury history, one's imagination is stimulated by the sketchy records of the past. You scan the old photographs, study the faces of the boys and staff, depicted there. and try to probe behind the faces. Often you have known some of the boys in their later lives. Sometimes you have read of them though you have never met them. Always it is those whom you have neither known nor heard of that stir the imagination I1lOSt. 12 THE ASHBURIAN lfach one of these has added or subtracted something to or from the structure. and for each there has been justihcation, admiration or condemnation in the eyes of his fellows. U'hat were they truly like? What were their aspirations, and to what degree were they fulfilled? Nhat were their triumphs, problems, frustrations, devious schemes for defeating constituted authority, ambitions, frivolities, joys and griefs? Interesting indeed are these old photographs-even more for what they conceal than for what they reveal. For so often the interesting things, the important things, the things that are tinged with the true glory are the things which are never blazoned or even privily known. llowever, interesting as may be these reflections upon the past, the present and, above all, the future have also their fascinations. Ashbury continues to prosper and to serve the growing and changing requirements for this type of school, and we have every confidence that it will continue to do so for manv, many years to come.

SHBURY College has just celebrated its sixtieth anniversary. It was founded in 1891 by the late Dr. G. P. lYoollcombe, whose death in the vigour of his age we mourned last summer. lts development has followed a pattern common among the great independent schools of Canada. Mr. VVoollcombe's School, as it was First called, opened as a private enterprise in the Victoria Chambers, on the site of the Victoria Building. Success came rapidly, and in 189-1 premises were acquired at the corner of Wellington Street, where the ofliices of the Metropolitan Life lnsur- ance Company stand. lt was then known as Ashbury House School, after an ancient manor of the XYoollcombe family in Devonshire. The name of Ashbury College was assumed in 1900 after its incorporation as an educational trust, and a move to the property on Argyle Avenue now occupied by the lYindsor Arms. ln 1910 a further expansion transferred the School to the grounds in Rockclilfe Park. The nucleus of the present structure was erected, to be increased by the generosity of friends, until the buildings were completed by the addition of the Memorial lYing, dedicated to the Qld Boys who fell in the first Cireat VVar, and of the Headmastens House in 1926. Growing numbers are -V17 Ashbury House y School, Wellington Street 1 'ffafyf ' si Ashbury College, Argyle Avenue a5'1.,4fc4.r7 I 9 ao -' 1' 91 0 .

For over half a century Ashbury has been operated as a non profit foundation, and its grounds, buildings and funds used solely for the beneht of the educational community of Canada, and above all, of Ottawa. For Ashbury is essentially an Ottawa School. Among its hundred boarders and eighty day boys are many from Montreal and from the farthest confines of our country, but its nucleus and its heart have always been in and of Ottawa. As Ottawa has expanded, so has Ashbury, and now, with the growth of Ottawa into a great capital city of world importance, the Roll Book of Ashbury College reflects, in its cosmopolitan aspect and the wide variety of background which it symbolizes, the metropolitan outlook of its native city. The broad View which such an enrolment, with its blend of race, religion and education, at once typifies and inculcates, may be taken lhe School about lvlli. :X rgylc Ax cnue exhi- 1 P 4 41 Gym class at :Xrgvle Axenue. -. A- lllllbllf VND LA as the distinguishing characteristic of Ashbury College. and its major justification for existence. Cnhampered by bureaucratic restrictions. it is free to experiment in the combination of the best of Canadian. Ilnglish and American techniques with the mental stimulus afforded by its window on the world. Rigorous academic standards are enforced by the insistence of its parent body on the preparation of their sons for entrance at a high level to an unusually wide range of universities. These academic disciplines are tempered by a rich provision of voluntary activities. administered largely by the boys themselves through their Clubs-among which are the International Relations Club. the Debating Society. the Geographers. the Cercle francais. the Dramatic Society. the Classical Association, the Nlusic Club. and above all the Science Club-in which the inspiration provided by distinguished visitors and by tours to focal points of the city and surrounding country. combines with mutual inliuence of boys endowed with a broad selection of frww sw JG Aw 4656, Football team, 1906 Ashbury College.

The basis of instruction is accurate expression in lfiI1gllSl1. oral and written. To this is added. from the age of ten upwards. a selective historical introduction to the best of Ifnglish literature. Classical studies are not neglected. and recent years have produced some distinguished scholars in Latin. Greek and Ancient History. but the bias of the Curriculum is now essentially towards Nlathematics and Science. with a liberal infusion of French. in which a free and colloquial approach to the language is stressed. This is as it should be. Algebra. Geometry and Trig.. Physics and Chemistry. Botany and Zoology. have the same role in our life as the Classics played in the Renaissance-they are the doorway to a new world. In a country with the expanding potential of Canada. it is above all important that the coming generation be equipped with the necessary knowledge which will enable them to make their proper contribution to its future. To this end. we consider no expenditure of time. skill. stimulus and equipment too great in laying a thoroughly sound foundation in these subjects. The Ashbury syllabus is completed by a full schedule of physical training:-the Cadet Corps. which is affiliated to the Governor Generals Foot Guards: Gymnastics. under a qualified Army Instructor: Football. Soccer. Hockey. Skiing. Cricket. Lawn Tennis. Track and Field- according to the season-all properly coached and supervised. form a regular part of the timetable. All boys from the top to the bottom of the School. participate daily in this programme of athletic and moral training. just as they attend their academic classes. The Prefeet System. with its invaluable indoctrination in leadership. is closely integrated with it. From this union of a stimulating intellectual and social climate. a stern academic standard. and a balanced physical development. we hope to see emerge a well rounded bov-and ultimately a man. in every sense of the word. i Q iii 5 .V V 45 tv, I r A 4 fx P' ff' 3, fav - ' my XXII' A, ,ff mga? SCI-IGO QTES KJIIWIITIIKQ Day s we came back during the days before the fateful 15th of Sep- tember, in ones and twos, we could soon see the changes which had taken place during our absence. To those who had come back a week early for some intensive football training, the changes were old stud. Klr. Brains old house had been converted into oflice and infirmary space, and Klessrs. Belcher and Sibley now occupied palatial quarters in the annexe. New classrooms had sprung up as wellg one in the basement, whose resemblance to the Black Hole of Calcutta was quickly dispelled by the fluorescent lighting, and another from the old Prefects' Common room and ofhce. The Prefects now occupied the site of the old book-room. The sense of newness, the exchanges of tall tales of the past summer. all had faded by the week's endg once more we were back in the old routine which we had ioyfully dropped but a few months before. Hffrcrmillzzlellf This year also featured our regular llouse Dances-in some cases squeeved in with difliculty between crowded football and hockey THE ASHBURI.-IN Il weekends. lYe were very fortunate in getting Bill iYeeks back from Nlciiill to Xl.C. our first dance, but for the rest of the year john Fraser filled the iob. Nlanv thanks are also due to Xlr. and Nlrs. Perry and Nlr. and Xlrs. Brain who acted as hosts and hostesses for these dances.

After a sumptuous feast in the dining hall, we adjourned to Rhodes Hall where we were treated to some movies. This entertainment was fol- lowed bv some Christmas songs bv Xlrs.

Truth, or a Reasonable Fael simile Thereof -a mock radio show by the Prefectsg this was essentiallv a burlesque of Ashbury, featuring commercials for such exotic products as Uncle Siblev's Fluoride Flea U Powder . A quartet under Mr. Law- Chfisfflllls P3ffY'Alf- 0l'Y'f1'- 'hw' son then sang a few selections and Mr. Oliver kept us in stitches with his never-failing ventriloquism. Then Santa arrived as a seasonable climax to the evening. During the Lent Term we were fortunate in having several visitors. Mr. joe XleCulley came and spoke on Canadian Prisons. in a verv interesting and instructive talk entitled iYithin the Halls. The talk was accompanied by an excellent National Film Board film on the experiences of a new prisoner. The Temple Choir also paid us a visit and as usual put on ati excellent performance. Last, but not least, we welcomed Xlr. Humphrey for the 9th consecutive vear with his slides of British Columbia. Accompanied with a well-informed and interesting commentary, these proved iuost absorbing. wa THE ASHBURIAN Parents' receptions this year featured such entertain- inents as a drama by Form I and choral speaking by Form IV Clubs The Debating Club-This vear, the Debating Club was unfortunate in having only one regular meeting. However, under the direction of Nlr. Tom Lawson we were able to gather together on Sunday R e afternoons for a half-hour or so, when each of us gave an informal and impromptu speech for about two minutes. Christmas Party. This - practice, together with the helpful criticism of Xlr. Lawson and the other participants, and the unique experience of hearing our speeches replayed SILIIICI' by Hf1l10WC'CH PHHY- stutter on a tape recorder, helped improve our public speaking markedly. In the first and only official meeting, Peter Carver and Kevin Koltz defeated by a narrow margin the motion that The return to power of TVinston Churchill was a good thing, proposed by Alan McCulloch, Raymond Lealoyne and Pat Beavers. The great event of the year was our trip down to B.C.S. where we debated with Lower Canada College. VVe opposed their motion which supported the appointment of a Canadian as Governor-General. The motion was carried by a Hoof vote of 26-19 by the Bishop's Debating Society. john Fraser and Rav LeMoyne were representing Ashbury. We hope that this event will be the first of several annual inter-school debates between the three schools. The International Relations Club-This year, the I.R.C. sponsored the mock trial of Alan Rosenberg for high treason. The court, under Xlr. justice Fraser, heard Crown Prosecutor Abbott and the Counsel for the Defence, Carne, argue as to whether or not Rosenberg had stolen certain secret documents from the Cadet Quartermaster's Stores. The -lury. led by Don Brown, returned a verdict of Not Guilty, after fifteen minutes of deliberation. The show was well-handled and made for an amusing evening.

They left with us an autographed cricket hat as a valued nieniento of their stay here. On Wednesday, October lllth, Ottawa was honoured hy the distinguished visit of Their Royal Highnesses. the Princess lfliiaheth and Prince Philip. Klr. and Nlrs.

A 24 THE ASHBURIAN CHAPEL GTES H143 decor of the Chapel has been greatly improved during the past year. During the summer, the Hoof of the Chapel was covered with linoleum and tile in a maroon and gray colour which blends in with the rest of the Chapel. We were also pleased to see new choir pews arrive early in the Fall term. They have been a great asset. The Mothers' Guild have made us two new sets of hangings.-the white and the green, and we are very proud of them. All of these improvements have enhanced the beauty of the Chapel, and add much to the reverence of the services. The general plan of services for the year has been to have one ll a.m. lloly Communion service a month, with Morning Prayer at the other morning services. There have also been Holy Communion services on special days. Short l'ivensong has been held Sunday evenings as usual. There has also been daily morning prayer. During daily services, the Prefects have read the lessons, and on Sunday mornings the lessons have been read by the Captain of the School.

On October 14th, a Special Old Boys' 60th Anniversary Service, conducted by Rev. XV. D. Christie, Rector of All Saints' Church, Hiestboro, was held at ll a.m. At that time the Governor-General, Earl Alexander of Tunis, unveiled the 1939-45 Roll of Honour. The lesson was read by E. N. Rhodes, Esq., Chairman of the Board of Governors, and the Roll of Honour was read by the Headmaster. We were pleased to welcome Bishop T. C. lYhite, former Bishop of Honan, China, at our Nlatins on October 21st, who gave an inspiring address. On October 28th we paid our annual visit to St. Bartholemews Church. This service was conducted by our School Chaplain, and the sermon was given by the Rector, the Rev. A. T. Carson. On Sunday, November llth, we held our Annual Remembrance Day Service. A. B. R. Lawrence, Esq., President of the Ottawa Old Boys' Association, read the lesson, Rev. XY. Lord preached, and the Roll of Honour was read by the Headmaster. 26 THE ASHBURIAN At 7.30 p.m. on December 16th, we held our Annual Candlelight Carol Service. Although it was a cold night, the Chapel was filled to capacity, and the service was up to its usual standard of beauty. On january 20th, the Prefects of the College conducted the service. .NIcCulloch l read the lesson, Brown l read the Psalm, jackson and Leliourillier read the prayers, and Fraser gave the address. This service will always be remembered as one of the highlights of the Chapel. Their lfxcellencies Un February 10th, at our morning Klatins, in the presence of Earl and Yiscountess Alexander of Tunis, we held a .Xlemorial Service for llis Late Nlajesty, King George YI. The Headmaster read the lesson, and the Chaplain gave the sermon. Nlr. Lord concluded his sermon with ,these lines: And Cod poured an exquisite wine, That was daily renewed to him, ln the clear-welling love of his peoples That was daily accrued to him. llonour and service we gave him, rejoicingly fearless, Faith absolute, trust beyond speech, and a friendship as peerless, And since he was master and servant in all that we ask him, We leaned hard on his wisdom in all things, Knowing not how we tasked him. We accepted his toil as our right-none spared, none excused him, When he was bowed by his burden, his rest was refused him. THE .4SHBL'RI.4N We held our Annual Confirmation Service on .Xlarch 13th, when the Bishop of Ottawa, the Right Reverend Robert jefferson, adminis- tered this ancient rite. Further record of this service is mentioned elsewhere in this magazine. Again we have been pleased to see the parents who have attendJ our services this year. Elmwood has continued its regular attendance, and we are pleased to welcome them all. The Rev. XY. sl. Lord. our new School Chaplain, has given us many fine addresses during the year. 5 After Evensong on Sunday. Xlay Hth. we were privileged to have with us the Rev. Eldon Davis. just returned from lndia where he has been a missionary for the past live years. Ile showed us slides illustrat- ing his traveQs in the northern part of India bordering on Tibet. and gave us an interesting and inspirational talk on his work there. Sunday. Xlay 18th. was Battle of the Atlantic Sunday . This was celebrated in our chapel by having a large number of parents and visitors in naval uniform, and the service had a nautical Havour. The lesson was read by Commander VV. Strange. and the Chaplain gave the sermon. In his sermon, Hr. Lord made reference to the fact that our late founder was on the Athenia when this ship was sunk in the early days of the war. and of the courage. and fortitude which Dr. VVoollcombe showed at that time. He concluded with our ancient and beautiful School Prayer which was used by Sir Francis Drake, Admiral of the Fleet. before he set sail for Cadiz.

Assisting Clergy were: Archdeacon C. Anderson, B.A., Diocesan Secretary, Rev. NY. D. Christie, B.A., Rural Dean, Rector of All Saints' Church, XVest- boro, Rev. A. T. Carson, iXl.A., B.D., Rector of St. Bartholomew's Church, Ottawa, and the School Chaplain. The Bishop in his address stressed the importance of the four orders of the Laying on of Hands:-Confirmation, the Ordaining of Deacons, the Ordaining of Priests and Bishops. Goodness, honesty, and a readiness to defend the Faith, he said, are especially needed today with Christian principles being attacked on all sides. Bishop jefferson called upon the candidates to develop wisdom and understanding to meet the challenge which lies ahead. The opening Procession was led by Crucifer C. Pierre LeBoutillier. followed by the Choir and the Clergy. The School Chaplain presented the Candidates, the Archdeacon read the Introduction, and the Scriptures were read by Rev. A. T. Carson. Following the service, a reception was held for the Confirmation Candidates, relatives and friends. The following were the candidates:-Kenneth H. C. Stephen, Ottawa, Mervin XV.

Here we were shown the necessary equipment to handle all the telephones of Ottawa. XYe were particularly interested in the CFRA Transmitting equipment. The trunk lines, the millions of intricate tiny wires, the advanced electronic devices, the telephone switchboards, and the preparations for television all impressed us, and we came away with much more respect for and knowledge of the instrument which has proven such a boon to modern progress. On january 12th, we made our Annual Tour of the Gatineau Power Company. Again this tour proved very useful to us in our Matriculation Physics Class, and showed how practical this subject is. Later in the month, on january 26th, we had a most interesting trip to the Gatineau Commercial Alcohols. This plant is situated next door to the International Pulp and Paper Company. The waste sulphite liquor is piped over from the paper plant to be used to make alcohol. Out of every 8,000 gallons of this liquid, only 8 gallons of alcohol result, so the efficiency of this plant of necessity must be high. The large distillation towers, the huge quantity of instruments and electronic control equipment are a vital part of the plant make up. IV e also learned that the purest forms of alcohol go into the manufacture of antifreeze, and other industrial products. Here, even the steam is used over and over, until all its heat energy has been dissipated. VVe were privileged on February lst to have some Naval films shown here at the College. Peter Gilbert spoke to the group assembled on careers in the Navy, and emphasized the importance of a sound education and technical know how. VVe are most indebted to Mr. Gilbert for obtaining these films for us. On February 8th, a large group from the school paid a visit to the National Research Council under the auspices of the Chemical Institute of Canada. Mr. Douglas XValkington of Canadian Industries Limited was the guest speaker of the evening. The title of his address was The Romance of Chemistry. He illustrated his talk with a number of special demonstrations including plastic combs, tumblers, bowls, and even water pipes, nylons, rayons, and snow used to decorate Christmas trees. He traced the tremendous strides made by the chemical industry in the last twelve years with such products as plastics, nylon, rayon, and sulfa drugs. He pointed out that it took 10 years of research and an outlay of 828,000,000 to produce nylon. He went on to explain that the ideas of Chemistry are not new. He even had a chemical explanation for a kiss. The theory was that on hot days cavemen used to lick each other to get salt their bodies had lost through perspiration. THE ASHBURIAN sv Somewhere along the line. ' one of them found it much more pleasant to lick the cheek of the opposite sex. Today thev're even putting saccharine 1 into lipstick to make kissing taste sweeter. He told us that chemists are working on woollen and cotton textiles, and he predicted that there would be wonderful SCILNCF ,I-RH, To Bu.Klv.HMl dff'el0PmC.UfS Such af men S I.. H. simey. 1-sq.. A.

Ashbury College had the largest representation at this meeting over any otherischool in Ottawa. Un February 16th. a smaller group consisting of Schacher. Nlclnnes. jackson, Salom, XIacLaren, Foulkes and Xlr. Sibley journeyed to the Xlaclsaren Pulp and Paper Company at Buckingham. P.Q. Here Nlr. A. R. Klaclsaren spent the morning showing us through the Paper Xlill at Nlasson, and then we went on to the logging mill at Buckingham. We found that this Company produces over 700 tons of newsprint per week in their large paper machines. After a very pleasant lunch at the home of Xlr. A. R. XlacLaren. we journeyed back to Ottawa in the afternoon. Throughout these tours. the fundamental idea has been to broaden our ideas of education, to show the practicality of our studies. and to give us some insight into the great industrial wealth which Canada possesses. The trips were all organized by Xlr. Sibley, ably assisted by Foulkes. LeBoutillier and jackson. THE SENIOR SCIENCE TRIP TO KINGSTON N Thursday morning, February 21, eleven Senior Science students. under the enthusiastic leadership of Xlr. Sibley. caught the bus at 8 a.m. for Kingston. We travelled on bare roads through Prescott and Brockville, and arrived at the Royal Xlilitary College at I2 noon. There we were met by Captain Klalone who introduced us to four Senior Cadets who led us in groups of three through part of the College Build- ings. IYe saw the gym. the swimming pool. the recreation hall. and the dormitories. By then. it was time for lunch in the dining hall. After lunch, Col. Sawyer. the Director of Studies, gave us a talk on R.Nl.C. He stated four major objectives of the College: To instil Iii a sense of values fiij knowledge Ciiil judgment and Civl discipline. We 34 THE ASHBURIAN MB? .'fI'UHl1Lf ffm' table left to right: C. P. LeBoutillier. G. P. jackson, G. Carne. I. lIacLaren. P. Ifoulkes. H. Cottingham, D. Irwin, .-X. Edmison, Esq., L. H. Sibley. Esq., P. KIacEwen. R. Younger, Dr. Tracy, L. Abbott, Lawson. then split up into two groups under the guidance of two Naval Officers to continue our tour. Some of the highlights of this tour were: seeing how brittle rubber tubing becomes in liquid air. and the making of an experimental submarine. After this tour we were introduced to eleven recruits who were our hosts for the rest of the afternoon. We were introduced bv them to the old 'fStone Frigatef' the home of the recruits. After a fine supper, we took our leave of R.NI.C. I think the thing which impressed us most was the outstanding smartness of the cadets themselves. their uniform good appearance. and their distinct and smart movements. liarly on Friday morning we set out after breakfast for the Alu- minium Company of Canada. Arriving there at 9.15 a.m. we first went into the ofiice building where we were told what we were going to see over a table model of the plant. This plant does not make aluminium from the bauxite ore. It processes the metal. rolls and extrudes it into the many industrial forms as we know it, such as pots and pans, Venetian blinds. or foil for packaging. Upon arrival at Kingston, the pure ingots are melted in furnaces for the preparation of different alloys. Mustard Cas is used for the refining here. Rolling is the chief process of fabrication. .-Xfter being softened by prehearing, the ingots are rolled back and forth between large cylinders until they are flattened into long thin sheets. Tubes, we found. are manufactured by the extrusion process. We also saw how aluminium was shined . The lustre is not permanent. It lasts about a year, then regains its characteristic THE ASHBURIAN dullness. Then we were shown the foil department. Foil for all Cana- dian cigarettes is made here, even the foil used to pack tea, which is shipped to the East, and then back again with the tea. At ll.00 a.m. we walked over to the Aluminium Laboratories Limited, which is a completely different organization from the process- ing plant. Here they carry on all the metallurgical tests on aluminium and alloys of it. The soundness of the metal, for example. is tested by a wave device with an oscillograph. Defects such as cracks, gas bubbles, etc. will show up by this method. XYQ were also shown many other tests such as those for corrosion, and stress and strain. At noon we arrived at Queen's University Students L'nion. I lere we were entertained at lunch. Xlr. A. lfdmison, the Assistant to the Principal, Dr. Tracy, Professor of Classics and Director of the Summer School, and Air. john Chance. Secretary of the lfndowment lfund, represented the University. After lunch we went on a quick tour of the Cnion. At 2 p.m. we were taken to the C-l-L Nylon Plant which we found was extremely modern. To open this tour, we were shown a film on the manufacture of nylon, with a detailed talk to go with it. This Nylon Company makes yarn only, not finished products. lt is the only one of its kind in Canada and has approximately 950 employees. The plant receives diamine and adipic acid derived from benzene. and turns these into nylon. Nitrogen gas is also used. All the oxygen must be removed from this gas which is brought into the plant in pressure cylinders, to clear the liquid. If the oxygen was left in, it would leave the yarn brown, which is undesirable for dyeing purposes. After this is done, titanium dioxide is added to make the fibre opaque. Another acid is now added to aid polymerization. We saw the liquid nylon coming through the spinnerets, to be solidified by having cold air blown onto it, and then it was wound on spools. The staple nylon is stretched until it is four times its original length, and then it is twisted. At the end of the tour we were entertained in the cafeteria. and 'then were shown into a show room of finished nylon goods. Here we realized the versatility of this product of scientific genius. The em- phasis in this plant is on safety, cleanliness, and quality. We left this plant in time to straighten up before a private dinner given in our honour by Dr. F. XY. Atack, the President of the Dye and Chemical Company of Kingston. At this dinner we also had the pleasure of meeting his other guests, Drs. Frost and Butler of Queens and his own company officers. During coffee, this erudite scholar and businessman, spoke to us informally. I-le made four points: fij Degrees, no matter how many you have, mean nothing by themselves. More important is how you get along with people. fiij You may be studying for a junior or Senior Xlatriculation. The important thing is you are learning how to study and 36 THE ASHBURIAN work, and if you learn how to do that, you are on the right road, because you will have to work all the rest of your life. fiiil No one is supremely happy by himself. Happiness comes from making other people around you happy,-by constantly doing something for others. Civj You do not have to know 10022, more than the next man, only 1072, more and that will be quite sufficient for life. Dr. Frost, in thanking him, added a piece of his own philosophy. He said that no one can get anywhere in the world without working, and that one should not wait around for the breaks. Mr. Sibley, our genial Science Master, then thanked Dr. Atack not only for the dinner, but also for being our chief guide and stay during the trip, as well as for providing transportation, which during the trip amounted to 46 cabs. After dinner we were shown the laboratories of Queen's University by Drs. Frost and Butler. Notable among the exhibits we saw were a working model of a bubble cap tower, and a fractional distillation unit. Following this little tour, hospitality was further offered us in the form of coffee and doughnuts, served to us at the home of Mr. Iidmison. We were then driven back to our hotel, propping our eyes up with match sticks, and so to bed, or to drop down manilla ropes. At 9.45 a.m., the next morning, we were at the Dye and Chemical Company. At the outset of this tour we were told about butter dyeing by a technician. Yes, butter as well as margerine and cheese is dyed before it reaches our tables. VV e were then shown some of the processes used here. For example-sulphur seal for softening leather, dry clean- ing chemicals, Hinipregniten for decomposing mustard gas, sulphinated tallow to soften textiles, and Italian amato seeds to colour cheeses. At ll a.m. we arrived at the Canadian Locomotive IVorks which is now turning out Diesel Locomotives. The part that impressed us here was the machine shop. In it we saw a great gadget which is a magic eye electronic tracer for cutting the shapes of the metals required. After this final and interesting inspection we returned to our hotel and had lunch. By 2 p.m. we were on the bus headed for home. By 6.30 p.m. we were in Ottawa. ln conclusion, I am sure that we are all 10071, richer, not only for having had an entertaining time, but also for undergoing an excellent educational experience. XYe are more aware now of the great indus- trial development of Canada, its efficiency, its educational progress and its great diversity. Our thanks go to all who helped to make this trip such a memorable one, and particularly to Mr. Sibley who spent many hours in organizing it. Those who attended were: MacLaren I, Cottingham, Foulkes, jackson, Irwin, Xlacliwen, Younger, Abbott, Lawson l, LeBoutillier, and your reporter, Carne. THE .-ISHBURIAN DRAMATIC AWARD OR some years now, thanks to the generosity of friends of the School, there have been awards for nearly every extra-curricular event-not only on the games field but in such competitions as poetry reading and public speaking. Until this year the outstanding exception has been the drama. The annual play absorbs the time and interest of the players for approximately three hundred boy-hours and. if for no other' reason. accomplishment in the art would certainly seem of suthcient import- ance to merit tangible recognition. Hence the establishment this year of a trophy for outstanding contribution to school drama was hailed with enthusiasm and appreciation. This trophy has been donated by one of Ashbury's recent Old Boys, Mr. Gordon Fischel, who took part in Ashbury-Elmwood plays during several years. Many will remember his spirited performance as Pengard, the cut-throat bo'sun in Captain Applejacku and as McConus, the suave, conservative family solicitor in Shaw's, You Never Can Tell . Then, earlier than either of these, was Yusuf, the disreputable but philosophic Arab of Hassan , by james Elroy Flecker. It was said of him by Mr. N. Shaw, Ashburian's dramatic critic of that year, . . . his expressive face, his vivid pantomime, made it difficult to recognize in the shiftless Arab l saw before me the imperturbable and languid mathematician of my Form IV. On a recent visit to the School, Gordon recalled these early histrionic capers with a good deal of enjoyment and felt he would like to commemorate them by offering a trophy for annual competition by the male members of the cast in these joint productions. It was decided that the trophy should be called The David Garrick Cup for Dramatic Art and should be awarded to the boy who has, either by a single performance or a series of performances, made the most valuable contribution to School dramatics during the year or years of his participation. VVe have much pleasure in announcing john Fraser as the First winner of The David Garrick Cup, in consideration of two consecutive years of able and effective acting, in 1951 he played Montague jordon in Eliza Comes to Stay , and in 1952 he appeared in Nothing But the Truth, in the role of E. NI. Ralston. Our sincerest thanks go to Nlr. Gordon Fischel Qwho, by the way, donated also a trophy for the mile racel for his spontaneous and generous thought for Ashbury and for the encouragement of dramatic talent in the School. 38 THE ASI-IBURIAN THE POETRY READING CONTEST HIC contest was celebrated on Sunday, April 27th, and again proved most interesting and worthwhile. It was inaugurated two years ago bv Xlr. C. C. Drayton, at that time junior Housemaster, but now, unfortunately, no longer at Ashbury. It is, we feel, a valuable heritage that he left us, and one which we hope may be maintained for many vears to come. i The competitors were divided into three groups-Senior School, .Xliddle School, and junior School. Each read three selections-a set piece, a selection of his own choosing, and an unseen , and the degree of interest and ability shown by all was really most gratifying. Professor G. B. johnston of the English Department of Carleton College was kind enough to adjudicate the contest, and his penetrating and helpful comments on the merits and weaknesses of the respective readings were constructive in the extreme. We are much indebted to Professor johnston for his kindness in devoting time and talent to the adjudication. The winners were: Senior-C. jackson, Nliddle-S. VVoollcombeg junior-XI. Weston. -lg-9-3 PUBLIC SPEAKING CONTEST N Klay -Ith the Public Speaking candidates assembled in Rhodes Hall for the annual competition. Considerable improvement was again evident amongst the majority of the contestants-particularly in the Intermediate and junior Divisions. At times in the past these groups have shown a tendency either to read or recite their material, this year, however, there were scarcely any who frankly relied upon either a full manuscript or a feat of memorization. On the contrary, most appeared to speak from skeleton notes and thereby conveyed a convincing effect of spontaneity and sincerity. A fine variety of topics included such themes as: The Battle of the St. Lawrence Seawaysw CNIcCulloch ID, Italy CKoltzj, Fishing lXYoollcombeJ, Hobbies Chflulkinsjg Parasitic Fish CKerr ID, Cyclones in the Indian Ocean KI-Iamiltonjg Tolerance CI-Iineyj, and Public Speaking OIcA'Nultyj. The Adjudicators, Messrs. D. L. Polk and A. B. Belcher, awarded the honours as follows: j. Fraser was named the winner of the Senior Group, with a discussion of Civil Defence , the Intermediate contest was won by Michael Rasminsky, speaking on My Visit to Washington , and the junior prize was carried by Cordon Gale who hazarded a number of somewhat precarious theories on the source and nature of the Flying Saucer.

Q ' ' 40 THE ASHBURIAN MQBQBG FIRST FIELD RUGBY His year the First team set out with great expectations. Most of the players returned a week early to set a pattern of stiff training, but it did not take long to realize that we were not a powerhouse. XV e lost our games with Fisher Park, Bishop's and L.C.C., in nearly every case bv one touchdown. But we came back after a thorough beating to win the second game against R.AI.C. in thrilling fashion. FIRST BISHOP'S GAME Our first important game was played at Bishop's in a steady drizzle on Saturday, Cctober 6. Ashbury kicked off, and held Bishop's, forcing them to kick. Gill ran the kick back forty yards. On the next play, we sent a beautiful old fashioned end run from Nowakowski on the Bishop's forty yard line, to Cardinal to Brown to Sobie, who crossed the goal-line on the run. From then on, the team played as if it had been a mistake. The convert failed. Featuring end sweeps and plunges by linemen, Bishop's scored a rouge, a converted touchdown, and another rouge in that order, behind the hard driving of Pratt and Southward. At half time the score was 8 to 5. In the second half it was B.C.S. all the way. The purple made three T.D.s, and led 24 to 5 at the end. On the last play of the game, Gill, trapped deep in his own end zone, returned the kick to save a point, giving the school something to cheer about. There was only one serious injury-to Les Cardinal. A driving tackle by Badger, heard all over the field, put the Ashbury half on the sidelines for two weeks with a severe charleyhorse. Out- standing for the school were Gill, IVharton, Hart, and Cy Sobie, who played the last half of the game with a badly swollen nose. Final score-B.C.S. 24, Ashbury 5. SECOND BISHORS GAME The return match was one week later, and the weather this time was ideal. As before, Ashbury scored Hrst with a touchdown plunge by Don Brown, converted by Ned Rhodes. A costly fumble by fourteen-year-old joe Irvin set B.C.S. up for a converted touchdown by Porter. An Ashbury drive, featured by accurate passes from Brown to Gill, was stopped as the first half ended with the score 6 to 6. In the 3rd quarter a Bishops drive was halted deep in our end as we recovered a B.C.S. fumble.

FISHIQR PARK HIGH SCHOOL Our next game was against Fisher Park. Fisher kicked off, but soon regained possession. O'Connell led them to an early touchdown. converted by Butler. An Ashbury drive in the second quarter cul- minated in a quarter-back sneak by Sobie for a T.D. converted by Rhodes. Sobie was playing his first game at quarter.

The play, especially on the line, was unneces- sarilv rough, but fortunately there were no injuries. Final score-Fisher Park 11, Ashbury 6. FIRST ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE GANIE The First of what we hope will be an annual event, took place at R.XI.C. on Saturday, October 20, in perfect weather conditions. As usual, Ashbury drew first blood with a safety touch by Don Brown. Then R.NI.C. showed its teeth, and soon scored an unconverted touch- down. But not till close to the end of the Hrst half did the Cadets really begin to roll, scoring another T.D. In the 3rd quarter, age and weight took its toll, as R.NI.C. marched almost at will, utilizing especi- ally a well-executed flat pass. The score was 34-1 when Ashbury suddenly came to life again in the last quarter. VVhen a green and red drive was halted on the R.M.C. 25-yard line, Ned Rhodes booted a perfect field goal. And before full time, Brown had kicked another rouge to net five points for the school. Despite the score, it was felt that Ashbury had done extremely well against superior opposition. Hart, who played sixty minutes, was outstanding on the line, and NlacLaren shone in the backfield, especially on pass defence. Final score-R.M.C. 34, Ashbury 5. SECOND ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE GAME Sparked by the brilliant quarterbacking of diminutive Cy Sobie, the school scored a surprising upset over R.NI.C. 2nds in the return match under excellent weather conditions. Taking advantage of every R.KI.C. slip, the alert green and red squad rolled to an early 6-0 lead on a six yard plunge by Captain Don Brown. Ned. Rhodes converted. R.XI.C. came right back on a series of end sweeps, and soon evened the count at 6-6. An R.NI.C. half bobbled one of Brown's well-timed quick kicks behind his own goal-line, and was rouged. Half time score was 7-6 for Ashbury. In the 3rd quarter the school staged a spirited offensive. Sobie carried over on a quarterback sneak, and fumbled, but teammate Ken Finlay recovered for an uncoverted T.D. From then on, it was R.NI.C. on the march. The Cadets took possession in their own end, and marched down the field on steady plunges and end sweeps to score again. The determined Ashbury line, lcd by Laurie Ilart, broke through to smother the convert and preserve the one point lead. XYith time running out, R.NI.C. took possession, and after a beautiful long pass, found themselves again on Ashbury's doorstep. Enable to crack the school line, they attempted a field goal from fifteen yards out. The kick was just wide of the post. Sobie caught the ball fifteen yards behind his own goal-line, and with an THE ASHBURI.-1X 43 amazing burst of speed, scooted back through a maze of players S to his own seven yard line, to save the day for Ashbury. Three plays later the game ended. Outstanding for the winners were the tackling of 1Yharton, Cardinal and Nlac- Laren, the blocking of Dodge ' 0 and Hart, and the brilliant all- Q ' round play of Sobie. if, ,,Cf,,,,g Final score-Ashbury 12, R.M.C. 11. LUXYIQR CANADA CULLlCGl . On the first Saturday in November we met L.C.C. in a sea of slush. Their headmaster offered to postpone the game, but the team was itching to play, so we did. ln the first half each team made two touches and a convert, L.C.C.'s by steady drives down the field, Ashubry's on two spectacular plays. The first was a recovery of an L.C.C. fumble on their forty yard line by Cardinal, who ran for the T.D. The other was a sensational seventy-five yard end sweep by john Gill after a looping lateral from Cardinal. Ned Rhodes made the convert. llalf time score: 11-11. In the third quarter each team scored again, and both T.D.'s were converted. Ashbury's came again from forty yards out, as Sobie repeated Cardinal's feat. The fourth quarter was the piece de resistance , by this time the field was a sea of mud, the players were indistinguishable, and visibility was nil owing to the damp snow that was falling. The school fumbled away more than one chance, and L.C.C. scored two rouges to win the game 19-17. Hart, Freedman and Finlay stood out defensively while Gill's powerful running and all-round play was a feature of the game. Final score-L.C.C. 19, Ashbury 17. OLD BOYS' GAME The annual Uld Boys' game was played in a sea of snow. The old boys, generalled and sparked by Mr. Tony Price, almost achieved team coordination, but pants that wouldn't fit, and other such com- plications, marred their efficiency. A spectacular seventy yard plunge by Les Cardinal, and a picture pass from Brown to Gill accounted for the school's two majors, as they coasted to a 12-0 victory. Final score-School 12, Old Boys O. THF HUUSF GAKIF A Connaught powerhouse overwhelmed a game XYoollcombe squad in the annual House game. YYoollcombe held the powerhouse scoreless for the first half. Then Finlay fell on a blocked pass behind NYooll- 44 THE ASHBURIAX eombe's goal-line to open the scoring for Connaught.

Andy XVells blocked Bloomstone's attempted convert. The plunging of Ken Finlay was a surprising feature of the game . . . it was rough. Final score-Connaught 12, lYoollcombe 5. SUMMARY The overall picture of the season shows hard play and good sports- manship in all games, especially those with R.M.C. We hope this pair of games will be only the first of many between us. At the top of our list of patrons is Mr. L. N. Rhodes, who donated to the team fourteen magnificent parkas, and nine sturdy tackling dummies, which improved the blocking and tackling immensely. XVe are very grateful for Mr. Rhodes' generosity, and for his constant interest and encouragement. Outstanding tacklers throughout the season were Cardinal, lYhar- ton, Foulkes, MacLaren, and Lee. Hart, who played sixty minutes in nearly every game, was the backbone of the line, along with Dodge and Foulkes. Sobie's brilliant quarterbacking, and Brown's allround dependability, sportsmanship, and good leadership sparked the offensive. john Gill's unquenchable good humour was a boon to the team. From the start it was obvious that everyone wanted to cooperate to give the team that extra something that will eventually produce many more victories than we have had in the past. Much credit for stimulating coordination and sportsmanship should go to our coach Mr. Tom Lawson, who has been a constant source of inspiration all through the football season. The team: Coach, T..

SECOND FIELD RUG BY Hr: beginning of the season saw us with a large percentage of new talent. There were only a very few players from last year's second team. By the time of our first game, the average weight and experience of the team had been sharply raised by the addition to our ranks of quite a few of last year's players who had been trying out for the first team. Even with this welcome addition, we still were pretty small and pretty light for an under-sixteen team. We found during the season that we were always smaller than our opponents, but in spite of this, weight was never the main factor against us. We never lost a game by size alone. Our Hrst games with Lindenlea were, to say the least. smashing defeats. We were consistently on the wrong side of the score-and usually by quite a margin. The scores of our first three games were 26-0, 23-3, and 18-6. As the scores indicate we did improve slightly from game to game. Still, we were needlessly outplayed. Our basic 46 THE ASHBURIAN troubles were fumbles, and a fatal lack of line protection which was often the cause of fumbles. In general we needed more spirit and more drive if we ever hoped to win a game. In spite of their results, these games gave us the practice we needed before meeting Bishop's. XVe were fortunate, this season, in not suffer- ing any serious injuries, so that these practice games strengthened the team without any cost in men. They gave us the experience we needed in blocking and tackling, and in running plays against an oppo- sition who meant business. ASHBURY vs BISI-IOP'S We had a very pleasant trip down by chartered bus, and after a good meal at the New Sherbrooke Hotel, we proceeded to B.C.S. where we spent the night. Saturday morning dawned cold and clear, with an inch or two of frost on the ground and by kick-off time the weather was ideal. Bishop's kicked off, and the game was even for the first quarter, with no side securing any distinct advantage in play. The second quarter saw us move up towards scoring position, but eventually we had to give the ball away on a third down kick. The result was spectacular. Their receiver fumbled while being tackled behind the Bishop's goal line. Everyone dashed for the ball, but it was picked up by Gregg of B.C.S. who then made a breathtaking run from five yards behind his own goal line for a touchdown. The convert was incomplete. The situation remained unchanged at half-time and the score was 5-0. VVe still were reasonably hopeful, for with one or two obvious exceptions, we had done very well. The score in our game at B.C.S. the previous year had stood at 5-0 for them at half time and we had almost won it. This time, perhaps, we could finish the job. Unfortunately it was not to be. From then on, Bishop's showed a marked superiority and managed to prevent us from getting in scoring position, as well as making two unconverted touchdowns themselves. Both of these were scored by Pratt, and were a result of systematic advances down the Held. At the end of the game the score stood at I5-0 for Bishop's, and left us with nothing but hopes for the following Saturday when we were to meet again at Ashbury. ln this game, our line functioned quite well, although many more tackles might have been made. The one fault on which they capitalized on their first touchdown, was failure to have a safety-man stay back to take care of breakaways. Everybody had been drawn in after the ball and the first receiver, and their man picked up the fumble and ran the length of the field unopposed. VV e were all behind him as he ran, and there was no one between him and the goal line. THE ASHBURIAN 4' BISHUPS vs ASHBURY This was probably the best football game played by an Ashbury second team against Bishop's College School. It was undoubtedly the outstanding game of this season. Our team had ironed out many defects in the Week since our last game-particularly in defensive play. We profited by mistakes that had cost us much in the previous game, and would probably have been more costly this time. Once again it was ideal football weather-sunny and cold and with no wind. Bishop's elected to receive, and the game started with Ashbury kicking off. The play was very even for the first quarter and no team established superiority in any way. Our team seemed to be working at top efficiency-as indeed did the opposing squad. The second quarter saw our team take the initiative and begin a march up the field which brought us to the Bishops 15-yard line with a first down. VVe then switched to an aerial attack-two long forward passes which were both incomplete. Then, with ten yards still to go on the third down, we kicked, hoping for at least a point on the play. Since we were practically on the right touch line, a field goal was not attempted. Unfortunately the kick went short, and Bishop's got it out without much diflicultv to their own one-Vard line. XVe still had hopes of making a tackle behind their goal line, but now it was their turn for a march up the field. They advanced with a deadening series of centre bucks and end runs until on the last play of the half they were on our three-yard line. They attempted a mayor score with a power plunge through the line. This was stopped, but our blood ran cold once more when it was discovered that Ashbury had been offside and Bishop's were given another down on our one and one-half yard line. Their second attempt failed as well, and the half ended in a scoreless tie. Our first play after running back the kick-off, was a special quick play which had been cooked up previously. The ball was thrown in a long forward pass to a sleeper who was running down to receive it. Unfortunately the play misfired. The play continued with no break- aways for either team until about five minutes in the third quarter. Bishop's was in possession and we were able to force them back a good twenty yards in two downs, and then they fumbled their kick and were forced back some more. This left the ball on their own forty-yard line and Ashbury took it from there and before much time had passed. jack Shurly received a long pass from Bill Baer on the 15-yard line. and ran the distance for a touchdown. The convert went slightly wide, and the score was left at 5-0 for Ashbury. At three quarter time, Bishops were on their own +3-yard line and trying to score. The quarter was the scene of a hard fought. 48 THE ASHBURIAN bitter battle bv both sides with B.C.S. getting within range of success when they reached our I0-yard line. VVe got the ball in this crucial period, though, and held it until time was called. Our victory was due to a fine spirit on the team and a well-oiled and functioning defence-our line worked like a charm-particularly in such crucial moments as the last plays of the Hrst half. For once our few fumbles were not in fatal situations, and though our passes were generally incomplete, none of them was intercepted. VYhen a pass did click-it paid off. ASHBURY vs LINDENLEA In our fourth game against this team we showed up in a much better light. Heartened by our victory against Bishops we played reasonably good football. Once again we stopped the enemy with our backs to our goalposts, and this time we carried on to centre field. Each team got a touchdown but not the convert, and the score ended in a 5-5 tie. ASHBURY vs CGNINIERCE Commerce received the kick-off, and then, against inexcusably feeble opposition, they went down the field for a touchdown. For the rest of the First quarter we barely managed to hold our own, and our team didn't begin to play football until near half time when we scored with a wide end-run by Andy VVells. Our convert was blocked, and the score was tied at 5 all. VV e spent the third quarter see-sawing back and forth around centre Held, but by the fourth quarter, we were once more on our way down towards scoring position. VV e never quite made it though, and were forced to give them the ball. They ran back our kick from behind the goal line to their own five. Then began, perhaps the worst display of the season. Helped by 25 yards we had lost through penalties, they marched into our territory and in the dying moments of the game they ran a buck through centre which went on for forty yards and the winning touchdown. Their convert was un- successful. The game ended with a score 10-S for Commerce. This game ended our season and for our success against Bishops a vote of thanks is certainly due to Capt. Higgs, our coach, and the team captain and vice-captain-jack Shurly and Bill Baer, all of whom worked to get the team into shape all through the season. The season was not, perhaps, our best, but it was not our worst by any means and I think we are all glad to have been a part of the Second Football team of 1951. J.M.F.

VVe fortunately had just this in a front wall built around Ballantvne, McCulloch, lVoollcombe and Alexander operating out of centre, rover, middle, and end respectively. I-liney, Brouse, Sutherland and Dalla Rosa rounded out the Hrst line, giving in fight what they lacked in size. Xluch credit and the thanks of the team are due to Mr. Price whose hard. enthusiastic and able training was largely responsible for our successful season. SEDBERGH AT ASHBURY Ashbury fielded two complete platoons for this match, known as A team and B team respectively. The A's rolled at will against lighter opposition while the B's lacked punch in offence and defence. Out- standing for Sedbergh was Tony Vintcent, perhaps the best all round player on the field. Final score-Ashbury 38, Sedbergh 18. ROCKCLIFFE AT ASHBURY This game saw the meeting of two very evenly matched sides, Rockcliffe enjoying an edge in the air, Ashbury on the ground. At half time there was no score. Both teams scored in the third quarter, our opponents converting. lYith three plays left in the game, Murphy reeled off seventy yards around right end to put Ashbury in scoring position. Sobie carried the ball over touch on the final play behind the savage charg- ing of an inspired line. Alex- ander kicked the convert. An- other well known place kick artist, the Governor-General, his father, was a spectator. Final score-Ashbury IO, Hike! Rockcliffe 6. ASHBURY AT SEDBERGI-I Ashbury took a weakened squad to Sedbergh and, as the score indicates, the play was very even. Such second stringers as Eschauzier in the backfield and Nadigel on the line showed to great advantage. Had Vintcent been used less sparingly we might easily have suffered defeat. XYe are most grateful to Messrs. VVood and Ross and the Sedbergh boys for a wonderful day at their school. Final score-Ashbury 20, Sedbergh 15. ROCKCLIFFIL AT ASHBURY Despite the loss of Nlurphy through a practice injury, our team had a greater edge over Rockcliffe in this game than was evident in the THE ASHBURIAN il first. XYC drove to an ll-0 lead early in the game and held Rockclirfe throughout to a very few rushing yards. Their two scores came on passes through our porous pass defence, one on the last play of the game. Final score-Ashbury ll, Rockclitfe 10. C.-XTHEDRAL AT ASHBLRY The Thirds ended their season with a strong offensive display against the plucky choir boys. Although our full team was NUI oh hand, we had enough power and a little to spare. The opposition was dangerous through the air but were unable to crack our stonewall goal- line defences. Final score-Ashbury 20, Cathedral 0. FOUTBALL DINNER '1' 8.00 p.m., Friday, November 30th, the annual football dinner was attended by the First Team, managers and coach, a few repre- sentatives of the Second and Third Teams, and sundry masters. There were special guests too: Messrs. S. Irvin, A. B. Rf Lawrence, N. Rhodes, R. XY. Southam, Don Loney, and The Press . Hith all possible speed an extremely delicious dinner was con- sumed, then after a toast to His late Majesty by Mr. R. H. Perry, The Head , one and all relaxed for speeches. Mr. Belcher started the ball rolling with an interesting talk on boarding schools, finishing by pro- posing a toast to the School. He was thanked by john Gill, quite humorously. Then Mr. Brain gave a summary of the team's achieve- ments and toasted it. He was thanked by Don Brown, the captain. who at that time had intended to present a silver tankard to Nlr. Ii. N. Rhodes for his great interest in the team, but Don forgot, and had to do it a little while later amid a great deal of mirth. At this time a number of presentations were made. Tom Lawson, the coach, announced that the best player and winner of the Lee Snelling Trophy was Gerry XVharton. He then presented another trophy, this time for the most improved player, who was Cy Sobie CDimmieD. Football tabs, of green felt, were then given out to all members of the First Team Cincluding managersb by Mr. Rhodes. Don Loney, Co-Captain of the victorious Ottawa Rough Riders, was the guest speaker. His first words were on football and consisted mainly of answering the numerous questions which he was asked. lYhen there were no more questions, he changed the subject to his career in the R.C.N. as a Frogman . Everyone's imagination was captured through his vivid descriptions and humorous anecdotes, for Don is not the usual sort of after-dinner speaker at all. In fact he is nearly as good a speaker as he is a football player. Pete McCulloch thanked him and expressed the wish that he would return soon. Altogether it was a most successful and enjoyable evening for all concerned. Bark mic: Xlarmol, Mendez, Carne, j. A. Powell, Esq. CCoach J , Clark, LeNIoyne, Schacher. I-'rom row: Salom. jackson, Abbott, Funes, Gimenez ll, Besson, Yeissid. SOCCER :ui soccer team played five matches last fall. and emerged with a record of one win, one tie, and three losses. It may fairly be said that the record might have been four wins against only one loss, but sometimes bad luck and sometimes bad management accounted for the actual results. The first game was played against Sedbergh, our traditional rivals from whom we have come to expect demoniacal drive from start to finish. This well describes their play in this first game but by lively combination and accurate passing we emerged the winners by the score of 5-2. Individual honours were shared by Abbott who scored three times, and jackson and Veissid who got one goal each. The return match against Sedbergh, played quite a bit later in the season, was remarkable for frustration caused by vile weather, the result being a scoreless tie. Intermittent rain had reduced the centre section THE ASHBURIAN s, of the field to a very greasy state and the ball soon became almost unmanageable. Nevertheless, even with these conditions, the game produced plenty of action and not a few moments of anguish foriboth sides. Ashbury undoubtedly had the edge in forcing the play into Sedbergh territory, but produced not a single goal as the defence hung on grimly and seized their opportunities to turn our attacks away. oh the other hand, due in some measure to extremely loose defence by Ashbury halves and backs, Sedbergh very nearly scored on several occasions and were a constant threat. lt was the old story-with plenty of time to steady the ball before returning it to our forwards or centre half after Sedbergh had kicked or driven the ball deep into our territory. our backs and indeed halves would swing their legs frantically and often as not miss the kick completely. This left things to lfunes 'in our goal who fortunately played his cool and collected game. On the attack. Jackson and Veissid were a constant threat with the former taking the ball down his right wing at great speed and centering accurately: that we didn't score as a result of his unremitting efforts was very unlucky. Yeiwid at centre half kicked powerfully and was largely responsible for keeping the ball in front of the Sedbergh goal area for so much of the first half. Rain or no rain, it was a great pleasure to return to the school buildings for a hot shower to be followed by Nlr. and Xlrs. XYood's customary gastronomic comforts. Our third match was against the 2nd Team from the Royal .Xlilitary College in Kingston. With some hesitation on our part this match was arranged, and was played on our intermediate field during the epic struggle between our lst footballers and the Znds of the College. It was quite obvious from the start that we were in for a good lesson: the only question was-how much fin the way of goals! per hour? R.Nl.C. team included a group of largish men and could all easily outkick every one of our players with the possible exceptions of Veissid, Salom, and Abbott. This soon began to tell heavily as the ball was all too seldom out of our end and indeed our goalmouth during the first half, and the score mounted to three goals to none. The strength and accuracy of their kicking fincluding that of their goalie who was hoisting them almost the entire length of the small field down windl provided the margin. During the second half, matters improved and the score against us was only increased by one goalg our players gained confidence with the wind at their backs and the play was very much more even, leaving the final score 4-0. The seasons fourth game was our regular fifteen-and-under fixture against Selwyn House, played at Ashbury. Generally speaking the game was fast and interesting. although the final score was five to two 54 THE ASHBURIAN in favour of our opponents. Play was a good deal evener than the score would suggest, but as before weak and inaccurate kicking was a great handicap with many chances being missed and glaring defensive errors being committed. Veissid and Oudesluys provided our two goals and Seifert was their most troublesome player on attack. The final game of the year was perhaps the one productive of the best soccer and the greatest excitement. After very difficult timetable arrangements had been overcome a match was played at Ashbury against St. Patricks College who included among their players some from Latin America. Our secret Spanish code, so helpful against RNIC, was thus rendered useless. Ashbury had somewhat the edge in territorial play but lcked that finishing drive and coordination of foot and eye which produces goals when needed, and the clearing problem from our own end was still giving cause for great concern. For Ashbury, Veissid, Abbott, Salom and jackson provided the best brand of soccer, while the St. Pats' captain, Michael Cast, was easily their outstanding player and was both the spearhead of their attack and the keystone of their defence. VVith only a few moments left to play, St. Pats banged in what proved to be the only goal of the game and emerged the winners. Only one other game of soccer was played during the regular season-to wit, the annual farce called House Soccer. Neither goalie handled the ball more than about four times, and the eventual scoreless tie on being replayed resulted in the same frustrating way. Perhaps the proper thing would be to play the House Game on the intermediate field so that whenever a contestant succeeded in laying his foot fairly against the ball there would be some possibility of a goal being scored. v, ,--.4 -W' M0 K Iwi' ' '71, 1 ..

Don came through with another unassisted goal in the first few minutes of the third period, and Tony Holland scored the third marker from Ken Finlay's pass with only twelve minutes remaining in the game. Our lead was narrowed soon after, though, when Moe Gravelle found the range again for the Flyers. He was assisted by Routhier. This closed the scoring in the game, in which seven penalties were handed out, five going to Ashbury. Final score-Ashbury 3, R.C.A.F. 2. ASHBURY vs ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE C2ndsD This game on January 26th marked the first played by our hockey team with R.M.C., and also the first game to be played on the new Minto rink. Taking part in the opening ceremonies were Col. Under- wood, President of the Minto Club, Col. VV. G. Denney, and Mr. R. H. Perry. From the start of the Hrst period, the game was fast, rough, clean and well played. After 2 minutes and 30 seconds of play, Hugh MacNeil opened the scoring for Ashbury on a pass from joe Irvin. Our lead was soon lost, as Guy Sullivan scored R.lXI.C.'s first tally two minutes later. After Hve and a half minutes of play, Don Brown put us ahead by a score of 2-1 with his third goal of the season. R.M.C. came back to close the scoring for the first period when Doug Sexsmith, assisted by Soutar, whipped the puck past our goalie. There were no penalties in the period. In the next period the checking was even harder. Six minutes and forty-five seconds after the period started, Don Brown once again found an opening and scored, assisted by Ian NIacLaren, but R.NI.C. wasn't long in tying it up with a goal by Ol. Reiffenstein at seventeen thirty-eight. Howard Cottingham and joe Irvin put us ahead once more, the goal being scored by Howard for the last goal of the period.

ASIIBURX vs BISIIUPS This was a verv important game to the Ashburv team. as well as to the school. being the first time we have beaten our traditional rivals in over a decade. Three davs before our game on Ifebruarv Ind. the school was mowed down with ptomainc, and rumour had it that we were sunk. These rumours were soon exploded bv our 3-2 victorv over the Lennoxville squad. 58 THE ASHBURIAN The hrst period started out with a bang, featuring tight playing, close checking and effective guarding. Meagher of B.C.S. slipped the puck into our net at 3.36. lVe soon took this to heart, and our forwards set up an attack which netted Don Brown his fifth goal of the season at 15.32, and his sixth at 16.51. Laurie Hart assisted on the first, and lan XlacLaren and Lou Abbott on the second. The second period saw a speed-up in the tempo, although no scoring was done. We were outplayed and outshot, but the Purple and Hhite sharpshooters couldn't shoot sharp enough to get the puck through our goalie-Bill Lee. In the final period of the game, B.C.S. tied the score at 2-2, followed by a goal by joe Irvin, for the Red, VVhite and Green, with an assist by Don Brown. Three penalties were handed out in this, the roughest period of the game, all of them going to Ashbury. Final score-Ashbury 3, Bishop's 2. NORTHVVOOD SCHOOL AT LAKE PLACID SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9TH On February 8th, the team travelled down to Lake Placid, New York State, for a game with Northwood, scheduled for the following day and played at the Olympic stadium. The Northwood team, Prep School Champions of the United States proved altogether too much for us-particularly in the first period, when they drove in five goals without reply from Ashbury. In the second period our resistance improved and we retaliated twice, but the final score read Northwood 11, Ashbury 2. Although there is no doubt that the calibre of our opponents was much superior to ours, the fact that the game was played under Amer- ican Intercollegiate rules, was perhaps an additional reason for this somewhat overwhelming score. MacLaren I, Cottingham and Abbott were probably best for us. The Ashbury Team was hospitably entertained by the Head- master of Northwood, Mr. Moreau Hunt, and by Mr. H. Fullerton, Athletic Director, and their team's fine coach. LOVVER CANADA COLLEGE AT ASHBURY SATURDAY, MARCH 1s'r The game was played at the Minto Skating Club and as the score indicates, was closely fought. Although there was much close, hard checking on both sides, the game was clean and very few penalties were meted out. Hart and Dodge on defence, were among our most effective players. Final score-Lower Canada 2, Ashbury O. THE :ISHBURIAN Sv THE GROVE , L.-XKEFIELD AT L.'XKEFll ,l.lJ SA'l'L'RDAY, NI.-ARCH 8111 The Lakeiield team outclassed us in every department and that the margin against us was not even greater than it was, was due largely to the fine work of Lee in our nets. However, the game was fast and clean, we were hospitably enter- tained, and the trip was enjoyed by all. Final score-Lalceiield 8, Ash- bury 0. HOUSE GAMES TL'EsDAY AND TTIEDNESDAY, MARCH 11'1'H AND 12111 As usual, these games produced a high degree of excitement and spirited competition by both players and spectators. This year, Connaught House counted a preponderance of lst team players in their line-up and won the two-game, total goals to count, series in a decisive manner. The scores of the 2 games were: lst game-Connaught 4, Moollcombe 1, 2nd game-Connaught 5, M'oolleombe 0. OLD BOYS' GAME SA'1'L'RDAY, NIARCH 15'1'H For the first time in some years, the 'cold timers emerged on top in this struggle-played at the Minto Skating Club rink, and unexpec- tedly enough, they seemed to gain speed and form as the game progressed. The School took a two goal lead in the early stages, with a goal each by Abbott and MacNeil, but this was evened up by joe Pop Irvin, and Tony Holland Cplaying for the Old Boysb in the second. The winning tally was driven in during the third frame by David Owen. joe Irvin got the assist. Final score-Old Boys 3, the School 2. Old Boys' line-up: Goal-Price, Defence-Thomas, Irvin, Finlay, Forwards-Ziiberg, MacDonald, Holland, Sinclair, Owen. L 60 THE ASHBURIAN SECOND HDCKEY TEAM JXSIIIZURY vs St:niznRcaH Lic meeting with Sedbergh started somewhat inauspiciouslv for, visiting us for a game at the Xlinto on February 23rd, they were leading bv some 5 goals to nil at the end of the first period. Sedbergh were skating their hardest as usual and their superior speed was what counted. .Xshburv tightened up their defence to some extent and scored as frequently as Sedbergh for the remainder of the game, but this left the lop-sided score at 9--P when the final whistle blew. Irvin scored twice and Sobie and Xliddrington once eachg in addition lYedd made heroic and spectacular saves and Shurly provided him what little defensive strength there was and rushed effectively as well. 'lihe return game scheduled for Buckingham Arena was cancelled due to an outbreak of colds.

THE ASHBURI.-JN ol AsHBL'Rv exni-in I5 vs Si-irwvx llotsi-3 exon-in In-lloxn-1 This, the first of home-and-home cup games, was played at the .Xlinto on February 9th. Selwyn jumped into an early lead by scoring twice, but although Alexander managed to score the first of his two goals before the end of the period, the visitors' lead was back to 2 goals as a result of another score late in the period. The hockey was sluggish on the whole with little cause for excitement or alarm. 'Things bright- ened up considerably during the second period, with Nowakowski and Alexander scoring for Ashbury, and Selwyn getting a further two as well. The third period was quite fast and exciting as well and, although Nowakowski was able to score again, the Selwyn team was not to be denied and scored twice again themselves to make the final score 7--l. For Ashbury, the Kid Line of Alexander, Rhodes, and Cameron provided most of the interest, with LeXloyne giving a good account of himself on defence. :XSHBURY UNDER 15 vs Surwvx Hoesii UNDI-QR 15-Aw.-xv The return match, played at the Yerdun Auditorium, was a much faster game. Ashbury took the lead in the first period on a goal by Nowakowski, but later in the period Selwyn tied the score. In the second period things were not so bright, as Selwyn replied twice to a single goal by Irvin, until Rhodes tied it up again with a long shot. In the hectic third period, Nowakowski was able to score his second goal, to put Ashbury into the lead -l-3, and the School managed to hold off a last minute drive by Selwyn and thus win the game. Our opponents, however, kept the cup awarded for this series on the basis of their higher total goals in the two games played. GOAL - Mulkins, DEFENCE - LeMoyne, Kingston, FUR- YVARDS-Nlclnnes, Nowakowski, Beavers, SPARKS-Drew, Alex- ander, Rhodes, Cameron, Brown. THIRD HOCKEY TEAM HE third liockev team had a verv successful season this year. A vote of thanks' is due to Mr. Lawson for his faithful work in coaching the team into its first-class shape. The team suffered a great loss when its captain, Brian Alexander, left for England, and our goalie, Hammad Ali, left for VVashington. By the time he left. Alexander's line with Doug Cameron and David Rhodes had begun to work in truly professional style. The position was capably filled. however. by Graeme Gorrie. The goal was placed in the hands of james Xluir, who proved himself very capable under fire. 62 THE ASI-IBURIAN Our first game, against a very strong B.C.S. team, was completely in their favour, and we went down to an ignominious defeat. VVe looked much better in our second game against the Rockcliffe Public School city champions, but we were again defeated 7-2. In our third game, however, we came into our own, and defeated Sedbergh 8-3, the game being closer than the score would indicate. Our first shutout was against Manor Park, whom we defeated 2-0. Then came our big trip of the year, to Selwyn I-louse. There We closed the season in great form, winning by the comfortable margin of 5-2. Individual players who stood out during the season were Alexander, Brillembourg, Cameron, and Gorrie. Alexander and Cameron even played against Selwyn House for the Second Team, and Brian bade his farewell to Ashbury and to hockey with a magnificent performance, scoring two of our four goals. ln addition to the above, there were many younger players who show great promise for next season.

Higgs. THE ASHBURIAN 63 X L, Kari ! f PTINIISNI was the keynote of the school's skiing fraternity as the winter term began. From last year's squad, which lost to Bishops by the narrowest of margins, remained seven experienced competitors. A more than ample layer of snow on the ground gave promise of favour- able conditions, something noticeably lacking in recent years. The tone of the team hopefuls, of whom there was a comparatively large number, was one of keenness and interest. Training was initiated immediately upon the boys' returning from their Christmas holidays. A three mile cross-country course was laid out near the school and regular races run off, while instruction in technique and slalom running was offered on the slopes of Rockclitfe Park. Every weekend the team was entered in the Gatineau Zone races, usually held at Camp Fortune. This proved to be an excellent policy for not only did the boys acquire invaluable competitive experi- ence, but by their excellent results brought great credit to the school in local skiing circles. It is hoped that this practice will be continued in the future. The team was extremely fortunate in having for its captain john Gill, a veteran of Ashbury's 1950 champions. Both as a performer and a captain his record and example were at all times an inspiration to his team. Buffs rn-1i'.' lf. A. Price, lfsq. lCoach7, XlacXeil, R. H. Perry, lfflll., Nowakowski, D. I..

Un one black january weekend Scott twisted his knee and Rhodes his ankle, both affected limbs being subsequently bound in casts. XYhen the team, or what was left of it, drove up to Mont Tremblant for a weekend of downhill and slalom running, the Triangular meet was a scant week away and the composition of the Ashbury entry still in some doubt. 'lihe team entrained for North Harley on Friday of the last week- end in lfebruary with Scott still on the limp and Rhodes not fully recovered. lts eight members included: -lohn Gill, Ned Rhodes, Gerry Ross, Chris Nowakowski, Dave Scott. Chris Gill, lelenry hlschauzier and l lugh .XlacNeil. :Xlso on the trip were Mr. lfvan Gill, an old boy of the school, Xlr. Dick Wright, coach of the 1947 squad, and the THE :1SHl3L'RI.-I X f current pilots, Xlessrs. Price and Polk. The team was met on its arrival by Harry Price. team captain in '-H and 45. whose assistance over the weekend was of great valuc. The following day. Saturday. the downhill and slalom events were run off. Ashbury captured the former by the slimmest of margins. led by its captains third place. but took a back seat fu l..CQ.CQ.'s strong slalom bid. despite Gill's brilliant first. The high placing ul. Gill and Rhodes. backed by the steady work of the remainder of the team. kept .Xslibury in the thick of the iight for Alpine honours. .Xt the end of the day nothing had been decided except that the three competing squads were very finely matched. being in a virtual deadlock. Sunday dawned clear and cold. excellent weather for the endur- ance test which was to decide the 1952 owner of the flochand Trophy. lt was in the cross-country race that the winters vigorous training paid us dividends. Ashbury. again led by -Iohn Gill with a line second place. won the race and carried off the Cochand Trophy for the first time. The school unfortunately failed to retain the Price Trophy. awarded annually to the meet's top performer. which went to the deserv- ing L.C.C. ace. Lawrence Redpath. Outstanding skiers for Ashbury were Gill with a second place in the combined standings. Rhodes third. and Ross seventh. Pratt and Ogilvie kept Bishops hopes alive while Nlaclseod turned in a notable performance for L.GG XYe are much indebted to Nlr. Evans of Bishops. to whose organizational abilities we owe the smooth running of the competitions. and whose hospitality we can thank for our enjoyable weekend. The first weekend in Xlarch a five man team comprised of Ol. Gill. N. Rhodes. C. Nowakowski. G. Ross, and D. Scott drove up to Xlonte- bello for the annual Ashbury-Sedbergh meet. The more experienced Ottawa squad had little difficulty with the courses. sweeping all three events collectively and individually. john Gill led the way in the downhill and CFOSS-COUDIFY while Ned Rhodes gave the spectators glimpses of a promising future in his startling slalom victory. Wheeler and Webster were the top Sedbergh contenders. Xlr. XX'ood. as he has now for many years. billeted and entertained us in a most generous manner. We are extremely grateful to him for his kindness. A notable phase of the winter ski program was the development of young talent such as Henry Ilschauzier. Chris Gill. and Billy Baer. If these boys continue to work on their skiing and improve. as they did this vear. their achievements mav exceed those of the 1952 team-to date :Xshbury's most successful. 66 THE ASI-IBURIAN , t 37 :iz f i llillsx 7 ' X 77 QXI His year many upsets were scored and only two former champions were victorious during the evening: Gerald VVharton and Cymon Sobie. JUNIOR: 60 pounds Lightweight 'THOINIAS NIOCKETT vs KENT COOK Two grimly determined little boys put on a wonderful curtain raiser. It is a question whether boxing is born in either of them, but they both had a marvellous knack of playing to the gallery. Probably the last punch decided the light for it was close all the Way. Tommy Mockett came out on top in the end. JUNIOR: 80 pounds Lightweight HERNAN'I BRILLENIBOURG vs JACK HORNELI, Brillembourg is certainly not one of those Hghters who stand around waiting for victory to come their way-he goes after it, using any legal tactics. Hornell, a former champion, has a punishing left uppercut which he used to good advantage in the preliminaries, but he did not get around to using it very often against his fast and fiery opponent of this fight. Brillembourg landed many telling blows to the nose, to take the final decision. JUNIOR: 105 pounds Lightweight The C bester-.flfltzster Trophy JoHN Hopiqms vs GEORGE lx4ACLARl-IN iNlacLaren never got going in this iight. His opponent proved too skilful, and showed during this fight the value of good body punches. Ile displayed laudable sportsmanship during the bout in standing off , when he had MacLaren almost helpless by blows to the solar plexus. MacLaren never stopped trying, but could not outpoint his clever Upp0l'lCnf. THE ASHBURIAN of INTICRMICDIATE: 110 pounds Lightweight The Edwards Challenge Cup DAVIID Kxowiqrox vs Lmv.-um Merkixs The tables were turned. Last year, Xlulkins, using his effective dancing footwork was able to outbox Dave linowltonfliut Dave is a slugger in every sense of the word, and, this year, never allowed lfddie to get going. Using round-house blows he started piling up points early, and forcing Mulkins to retreat continuously, finished on top. INTERNIIQDIATE: 160 pounds Heavyweight The Evans Challenge Cup NIICHAEL Hicks vs Draco Nliaxnrzz Michael Hicks put up such a wily, opportune exhibition of boxing that he ultimately won the Middleweight crown and the Grant Cup for Ringcraft. It could not have gone to anyone else that night. Diego Mendez was frequently forced into a crouch against the ropes, his head well protected by his gloves. Then he would uncoil, and like a cobra lash out at his opponent. This had Mike fooled at first, but he soon caught on, and returned telling counter blows until he eventually took the decision. SENIOR: 127 pounds Lightweight The Ashlnnfy College Challenge Cup YVILLI.-mir BARR vs XXIILLIABI EAs'rwooo This fight was most interesting. Baer, lashing out from his crouch, put in many effective blows, one effect being a bleeding nose for East- wood. The latter put up a courageous stand till the last bell, and succeeded in getting Baer peeved once or twice. Baer won the fight by decision. SENIOR: 135 pounds Lightweight The Fauquier Challenge Cup CYMON Some vs KEVIN KoL'rz This bout was one of the closest, hardest fought, and most inter- esting of the evening. Sobie, with his hard hitting and expert footwork managed to score a clear win over Koltz, whose stubborn resistance and determined spirit Won him the best loser trophy. Cy fought under the additional handicap of a broken wrist, suffered near the end of the bout. JUNIOR: 147 pounds Heavyweight The Pattison Challenge Cnp GERALD XYHARTON vs Acniruzs Bi-:ssox Both boys showed the effects of lack of training. At the end of the bout, there were few punches thrown-they spent a considerable amount of time just leaning on each other. However, in the early stages, it was a furious contest-a typical 1Vharton fight, as his oppo- nent, Achilles, was knocked to the floor during the first round. Gerald me THE ,PISHBURIAN profited by his advantages-his relentless will to win and a knowledge of the value of body punches. These did not seem to damage his tough opponent particularly. but they did slow him down, moreover they piled up XX'harton's points which were ultimately greater than those of Xchilles. SIQNIUR: Heavyweight The Fnzfqzziel' Challenge Cup Pl-ilil-QR .Xl1lCL'I.I,UCH vs RICHARD FRIQIQDNIAN ln many ways this fight was a joy to see. For stylish, hard hitting, for sportsmanship and for courage, it was a wonderful last fight. Dick lfrecdman, shorter in height and experience than his opponent, put on one of the pluclciest displays we've seen, and was still Fighting at the end, although he had hit the Hoof a number of times. Pete Nlcflulloch put on a beautiful performance and showed his sportsman- ship by holding offl more than once. Pete has, without doubt, the fastest punch in the school to-day, and it comes straight from the shoulder, hard as rock. That night, it gave him the Heavyweight Clhampionship of the School. ln conclusion, a word might be said to encourage all those who fought in the preliminaries but did not reach the Finals. They are all to be congratulated for their effort and sportsmanship and courage. X l3.1z'fc rn1L'.'

The day dawned clear and sunny, but there was a nip in the air which caused some runners to start with sweaters on Cmainly through the influence of the Matronj although few were wearing them when they returned. At 10.30 a.m. some twenty-five boys charged out the front gate toward the R.C.M.P. Barracks-first leg of the senior course, for boys of 16 years and over. Once around the corner they settled down to a steady trot which took the winner, Mike Hicks, around the -1- mile course in slightly over twenty-five minutes. The intermediate C14-16 yearsj was run by about thirty boys, of whom Mike Lawson beat all competition by coming in after 192 minutes-nearly two minutes ahead of his closest competitors. In the junior C12-14 Vearsj Dougie Cameron ran the 13 mile course and won it. His time was 12 minutes and 10 seconds. The 1 mile Cunder 11 yearsj race was won by Tommy Nlockctt who ran the distance in a little over eight minutes.

Bishopls had their innings first, and the opening pair, .Xlirchell and VVoods, together totalled 20 runs, and B.C.S. seemed on the way to a fine innings. Due to persistent bowling by Foulkes and Brown, however, the side was all out for 63. Ashbury came to bat and wickets fell fairly fast despite good hitting by Brown, Grimsdale, Baer and Hart. 5 wickets had fallen for 47 runs and Ashburyis hopes were high. However, the side was retired for 57 runs. B.C.S. had its second innings, and the batting was poor except for a fine stand by Tremain who made 26 runs. This was due to Grims- dale's devastating bowling and the team's fine fielding, including sensa- tional catches by Abbott and Besson. B.C.S. was out for 49. Ashbury came in for their second innings with time to spare, and due to fine hitting by Cottingham, Foulkes, Brown and Hart, the Ashbury total soon was close to that of Bishop's. The game was won by a boundary 6 by Hart, which brought the score to 61 runs, Winning the match for Ashbury by six wickets.

POST season match between Defence CC. and Ashbury. repre- sented by a combination of 1st XI, under 16 Xl, Old Boys and Masters, captained by Mr. Powell, was played at Government House on Saturday, june 7th. After a most enjoyable and exciting game, Ashbury emerged victorious by 113 runs to 101.

After only one scoring stroke Gill was run out on a bad call and Rhodes came and went fairly quickly as a result of edging his wav across in front of his leg stump for an LBVV. lfastwood then joined Nowakowski and a brief stand of 12 runs was made bringing the score up to 21 for 3 when the latter was bowled bv Grier when he looked to be getting set . Eastwood continued to score freely as his partners came and went but was caught off Fraser when he had secured 24 runs and the telegraph read 61 for 8. Fraser quickly disposed of two more cheap wickets, getting all of his three for no runs in the last 8 balls he bowled. The final total was 64, not an imposing score but reached in 55 minutes of batting. When Bishops began their innings, Eastwood started to bowl to great effect and got the first three of their wickets for only six runs on the board, but Meredith and O'Halloran carried the score to 28 .

THE .4sHBUR1.4N 81 before the latter was bowled. Five more wickets fell for only an additional six runs and things looked very favourable for Ashbury. But a dropped catch at 3rd man and some unacceptcd chances for run outs meant a further 16 runs, to bring the Bishop's score to 50 for 10. The innings closed soon after lunch with the score at 58. Margin of Ashbury's lead was thus a mere 6 runs instead of. say 25, which seemed possible at an earlier stage. After lunch, poor calling resulted in Gill and Nowakowski both being run out for only 12, and Rhodes was bowled trying a cow shot at a slow full toss, just when he seemed to be starting a big innings. Eastwood and Knowlton were soon dismissed and telegraph read 41 for 7. Fraser fapparently the BCS hatchet-many then came on and quickly docked the tail, taking 4 wickets for no runs with his last seven deliveries, and the melancholy business finished with the total unchanged. This left Bishop's with a target of 49 runs to win, which they did with despatch, losing only four wickets with Pratt driving confidently on both sides to score 32 not out. Bishop's were thus the victors by the comfortable margin of 7 wickets at five minutes to five. Apart from Fraser's splendid analysis of 7 for 7 in less than four overs. which deserves special mention, honours were divided between Eastwood, who played a valuable Hrst innings and bowled steadily in both, and Pratt who quickly put the issue beyond doubt in the second. ASHBURY vs BlSHOP'S AT C'r'rAwA, 17'1'H MAY 195 2 'N THE return match at Ashbury, matters, to begin with. were reversed. with Bishop's having a 10-run lead on the Hrst innings. only 3 batsmen fEastwood, Meredith, and Prattl reaching double figures, and bowling honours being shared by Grier, Xlacliay, and Eastwood who took 3 for O with his last 4 balls bowled. But the second Ashbury innings was a real nightmare-Rhodes' wicket was the first one to fall with 9 runs on the board and to draw a veil over the rest of the proceedings would only be kind. lt should be enough to say that ll for 9 was there for all to see, with Drew and Widdrington putting on 12 at the end to push the dismal total out of the 'teens. Cowans took 7 for 1 in his last 3 overs and Grier 3 for 7. This left a laughable 15 runs for Bishops to knock out for victory, which they did for the loss of only Pratt and MacKay, to win easily by the wide margin of 9 wickets. XYithout detracting in the smallest degree from Bishop's two decisive wins, the Ashbury side must be charged with fatal indecision, both in running between the wickets and, more importantly, while playing the strokes. A firmly 82 THE ASI-IBURIAN hit shot although mis-timed often goes past a fieldsman before he can collect himself to make a try for the catch, whereas timid dabs usually put up sitters . Of the six catches of Bishop's bowling in the Ashbury second innings, four of the victims got ducks , with three of them making up the cast of a hat triclc.

ASHBURY 3Rn XI HIC Third Field was unfortunately only able to play one game during the rather short season. A second game planned with Selwyn House was cancelled due to rain. In the one game that was played however, the Ashbury team put up a good stiff fight, only to be beaten by the consistently good batting of the team from Bishop's Prep School. Outstanding for Ashbury was the batting of Birbeck, who scored 54 runs. The rest of our team was unspectacular, and were all out for 70 runs. lllishop's, by the steady batting of their Hrst men, and the occasional error by Ashbury were not long in passing our total and finally piled up a total of 108 runs. 1 4 X X :ff V Q aiuun x '5 AQ 2,1 cf l - N-H. TENNIS His year, in spite of the occasional bit of bad weather. a very short spring term, and such competing attractions as the Cadet Corps, the tennis Held was able to make unprecedented strides. Not only were we able to get our own tennis court into Hrst class playing shape, but everybody actually was able to play some tennis! Things started well when instead of our traditional two weeks of running to the barracks and waiting for the tennis courts to be ready we got right down to business. Another factor in our successful term was the use we had of the Rideau Tennis Club. The fact that this club had always seven or eight courts available and that only half the field went down at one time meant that everyone got to play. Those not going down helped fix up the Ashbury court, and had some practice and instruction with a stroke developer which was kindly loaned by Mr. Devine. Another unique feature, this season, was the tennis tournament. This was arranged and directed by Mr. Devine. Starting with a draw of 29, the field was slowly pared down until the semi-finals. Klclnnes, LeMoyne, Holland and Kleinhans were the four semi-finalists. and Stu Mclnnes carried off the trophy after beating Tony Holland in two out of three hard-fought sets. Credit for the achievements of the tennis field, and the success of the tournament, which we hope will become an annual event, is due to Mr. Devine, whose interest and hard work were much appreciated. PREFECTS XICCULLOCH I- Hell's fires were better tlaan early rising. Some people have hinted in past years, that Big Al couldn't even fall off a roof. This is unkind, and what's more it's untrue-Big Al did fall off a roof. Unfortunately we were thus deprived of his invaluable services in many of our sports. It hasn't prevented him from doing a Hrst class job as Head Boy, though, and with his voice, he has made a good Sergeant-Major. A1 is an executive par excellence-a great man for getting things done, by other people. He is also an ardent cat-lover and has a charming picture of a kitten up in his room. His plans for next year are vague, but best of luck anyway. 97 BROIVN I- The best way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it. About 5 years ago Don arrived here, due, in his time to leave his mark on Ashbury, and vice-versa. He may have started by scribbling his name on the walls, but now it is engraved on nearly every athletic trophy there is. He has captained football, hockey, and cricket teams in the past and, especially this year, has been the back- bone of them all. He studied abroad for a year and since then his academic standing is as high as could be hoped for. His favourite colours are red and blue at least he labels all his books with them. We are sure that his good sportsmanship, popularity and good humour will have him carried, I mean carry him far and that he will be very successful at McGill. FOULKES- Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow 'we die. In the seven years Phil has been here, his shaggy head has become a landmark. But undemeath all that hair lies a heart of gold, and a will of iron. He has done much to keep the school running smoothly, and due to his patemal interest in 'The Four Horseme-n', Fraser's cadet boots have been well shined. Phil would do well in politics, we think, for he has often been heard vigorously upholding his opinions, in a minority of one, and eventually winning out. When he leaves for R.M.C. next fall, Ashbury will have lost one of her most efficient and best informed prefects. FRASER- I will speak daggers, but use none. lumpy first bounced into our shining corridors in the fall of '46, and since then has become a leading figure in many school activities. In past years he has made a name for himself not only as a scholastic wonder, but a leader in school drama, literature, and oratory. This year, before heading for McGill, he became one of the exalted day-boy prefects, and could often be seen with Book in hand, on Prefects' Report, crouched in his chair, ready to let forth a blast. In the fall he galloped around the second football Held, where he won 2nd Team Colours fsomething between a D.S.M. and an old age pensionl. But really, folks, all kidding aside, he's no good at all, but we wish him all the best anyway. j.-XCKSON- Few things are finer than a noble horse. Commonly known as 'Jake-', Graham has proved himself to be a fine athlete in the lst Soccer and lst Cricket Teams. Perhaps his greatest feat during the year was his superb performance in Nothing but the Truth. 'Di' was alright too, it seems, and co-operated with him very well. When not practising his part with his usual conscientious zeal, he found time to be Chaimian of the Music Club, an ardent science trippcr, and assistant projectionist. He is also a connoisseur of his food, Cadillacs and horses. A loyal, keen and efficient prefect, jake hopes to be back next year. GILL I- Life is .1 just and all things slwu' ir. johnny is without a doubt THE character among the prefects this year. llis cheery yodcl accompanied by the invzlriable l've been here for ten llllllllfvhn was a sort of opening ceremony for the school day. Some people thought that the Princess went past them too quickly. NVQ- wonder what the Princess thought when john and Sandy went by followed by her escort land we don't mean the Princem John is either very serious or very gay, which reminds inc ll don't know whyn that he is a keen golfer-at least he's always heading out the Aylmer Road. Ile has made outstanding marks this year, so outstanding, in fact, that they are asking him to work now. john can be seen waltzing along the corridors, skis on his Shoulder and football under arm, looking for a game. He starred in both loothall and ski teams, being captain of the latter. NVlu-n asked if hc was coming haik next year, he replied with tears in his eyes. NVy No! MACLAREX l- Be-:rare the fury of .1 paticnr nun. In our midst this year, there appears a candidate for U.X.B.eour hardworking repre- sentative from Buckingham, P.Q. A top-notch fellow in every way, lan has played well on every first team this year and is due for many congratulations for his depend- ability. On Saturday nights, he amuses himself telling fairy stories to the members of the younger generation with whom he lives up in the wing. Or. if he has succeeded in sneaking off and leaving Howard with the job. lu- can he found pouring money into the Bell Telephone. This summer, Ian is going to Europe. YVishing hiin the best of luck, we hope he doesn't become addicted to those French wines which we hear fiow like water lwater?l J. and confines his attentions to women and song. XVHARTUN- .U:1cl' study is J -wearilzcss of Ilia flesh. Gerry is one of our most popular prefects this year, except perhaps with some of the masters. One of his more enzlging habits is that of turning up about five minutes late for first period with the original and usually inaudible remark: I'ui late, sir. He is also a prominent figure in the Cadet Corps, being C.O. or some- thing. In spite of certain libellous allegations made to Mr. Sibley about the way he spends his nights, Gerry really works like a slave. lln fact keeping him in chains is one of the few ways of getting him to workb. Next year he hopes to go to R.M.C. and become a Brigadier Admiral. Ashbury and Daly Avenue will have lost much. LEBOUTILLIER- After the tempest, the still, small voice. Known as Boots by one and all, Pierre hails from YVayne, Pennsylvania, and loses no time in letting everybody know it. A strong supporter of the Phillies. and of Ike for President, he has been with us for four years. He is still the idol of all the Elmwood Juniors tnot to mention the Seniorsl as he walks up the aisle each Sunday. During the past year, as well as being a first-rate prefect. he has played first team football and managed the first hockey team, and has served yaliantly as Crucifer for the choir, and chief projectionist on Saturday nights. He also starred on the Senior Science Trip. Q is the favorite letter in his alphabet. and his usual pastime is georging with Don Brown. Boots hopes to become a farmer after going through Penn State U, and although we feel he's pretty much of one already. we wish him all the best. COTTINGI-IAM- 'Tis irisdovn to be silenrf' Butch first blessed the Ashbury grounds four years ago, bringing with him some remarkable formulae from the Quebec north woods-for shining shoes. This year he has been up in the wing with Ian, and the order and efficiency that reigned up there were in part the products of his iron hand. He is usually quite the strong and silent hero. but those who know him well tell us that he really makes up for lost time when out driving. Being an accomplished conversationalist in the front Seat of his car, and also one of Ashbury's best dressed men. we feel Howard ought to go far,-away, that is. This summer he has reserved himself ringside seats for a hockey game in Paris. SALO.Xl- They also serve -zclso only stand and trait. VVith the possible exception of yours truly, who suddenly found himself with another of these filthy notes to write. we were all delighted at Pedro's appoint- ment to this high office. He had been a conscientious and successful room captain all year. and nobody was too surprised at this development. Pedro. however. was thunderstruck. In fact. he never quite remembered to take advantage of the privileges appertaining to his exalted position: he was perhaps the only prefect who always knocked on the door of the common-room before entering. In such functions as the school picture, as well, we had to drag him out of his humble and obscure place among the pazzents. None the less, he fulfilled his duties as a prefect most efficiently. Next year he-'ll be at Tulane University after a summer of raising parrots down in Venezuela. FORM NOTES FORM VIA ABBOTT-lst Soccer, '48, '49, '50, '51, lst Hockey, '51, '52. Rumble- seat, '32 Chev. Louie is indeed one of the brighter spots in the VIA scene. His shining hour, though, comes once a week-Satur- day midnight. He has spent the year doing a great number of interesting things Cmost of them having little connection with workj such as games, debating, and helping edit the Asbburian. He does well in his work, though, and enjoys it. He loved maths so much that he decided to give them up for Lent. Ashbury Cnot to mention Elmwoodj will be glad to know that we'll have the benefit of his 'joi de vivre' again next year. Then Bishop's Univer- sity and McGill, after which he's heading for the law. C-XRNE-Although he has been in Canada for five years, Geoff still seems to be under the impression that Australia is a country and a continent, and not a South Sea Resort for kangaroos and convicts. During the winter months it's difficult to be sure Where he lives- at home, at the ski-cabin, or in Younger's car. Carne's ambition is to be a sheep-farmer back home and make millions, but he'll undoubtedly end up as just another Seneca Street lawn-mower. Geoffs distinguished achievements include winning the vice- captaincy and 2nd colours in soccer, and commanding No. l platoon in the cadet corps. C PXRVER-Pete has no personality of his own-he is a conglomeration of everyone with whom he has ever come in contact. This is so, or perhaps only seems so, because he is the perfect imitator-often to Mr. Sibley's dismay. His main function at Ashbury seems to THE ASHBURIAN gf be keeping the Senior School Cand the more patient mastersj in stitches. He loves taking junior Xlatric subjects over and over again, but he's really very young to be as far as he is. In spite of his youth he has distinguished himself in Ind Team Soccer, Hockey and Cricket, and as a Lance Corporal in the corps, and a room captain. Mort is a jazz fiend, and went to New York over Easter to quench his thirst for it. He loves Guys and Dolls - especially dolls. ' GILBERT-In spite of the fact that offers have been pouring in from A'l.G.Al. ever since his performance in the school playi Peter is going to grace us with his presence here again next year. He has become a figure of some stature in the school ffiguratively speak- ingj in his roles as manager of the First Football Team and lieuten- ant in the Cadet corps. In spite of his successes in the army, though, he still entertains the idea of going off to drown himself at sea. Inspired by his motto XYork is better than nothing, but anything is better than work , he should go far. flYe decline to forecast in just what direction J. IRTYIN-Don, The Kazabazua Kid , coming from that great northern metropolis, has made quite a name for himself in the five years he has been at Ashbury. This is especially true in the Lab, where his freelance fgulplj experiments Cughlj have made him notorious fwhat a stench! J. He is also justly famous as a radio and telephone expert. Unfortunately he won't be with us next year, as he wants to become a Lab technician. lYe are sorry to see him go, but are sure that his mild manner and engaging character will pull him through-even among those eccentric scientists. Whatever he be- comes, he has all our best wishes for good luck. GRIMSDALE-Thomas Vl'illiam Grimsdale, or Grimv as he is usuallv called-or even T.VV.fBillyJ as we have seen mi some of his mail from a North Carolina girls' school, is indeed a prominent member of the form. Vlfhenever you hear an angry roar, it's ten to one he'll either be giving it or receiving it. Although he claims to be an atheist, he is perhaps the only member of VIA to have been a bishop-if only in the school play. Atheist or not, he made quite a hit with his white hair and flowing beard. ln sports he was featured on the Znd Football team, and lst Cricket team, where he played with no little distinction. Next year Grimy hopes to be back at Ashbury to pick up some of the finer points of French. LAVVSON I- Louse is one of our tall dark playboys and a most friendly fellow to boot. He has become notorious for his George V necktie and his Merchant Navy Pin. XYhen not studying for THE ASHBURIAN his R.M.C. CNo Geoff, that's not the Rockcliffe Mowing Co.D entrance exams-i.e. most of the time-he can be found in his 'garden' hard at work with the plough. He may well succeed in making it one of the outstanding beauty spots of Lindenlea. May- be he hopes to sell his flowers to Craig's. If he prospers, we have it on distinguished authority that he will inevitably invest his fortune in a new, revolutionary, gold-mining scheme. NIACFVVFN-Peter comes from Maxville, Ont., the home of the High- land Games. Although we suspect that the closest he has ever been to the Highlands is his room in the upper flat, he has con- tributed much local colour to Ashbury. What he does in Max- ville is still a mystery, but we think he sells Pudgy Bird Seed. VVhat he does at Ashbury is to have spares. Mac seems to have a weakness for 357 bills, bellboys and Chlorinated water. He can usually be found on Saturday nights with Grimy, talking to joe the Barber. Next year he will be adding his talents to the already distinguished Ashbury contingent at Bishop's University. ROSS-Gerald competes strongly with Cy Sobie as the shortest member of the form, and with Grimy as a French expert. He is planning to spend another year at Ashbury before embarking on a naval career at R.NI.C. fLast gunner on the flagship of the Lake Ontario fleet, perhaps.J Gerry really stars in English class, where his valiant eflorts to shift the conversation from the subject of last night's prep to The Male Animal are notorious. He was on both the Second Football team, and the victorious Ski team, and has done well in sports generally. Besides avoiding work during English class for any other class, for that matterj his chief ambition is to find an unbeatable system of getting home during his one spare of the day. SOBIF I-The last of the Sobies, as far as Ashbury is concerned this year, Cymon is one of our most popular boys in VIA. A star athlete against R.M.C., while in boxing, he won top-honours in his class, despite a broken wrist which he suffered during the finals. All those who appreciate Cy's ability in making passes will be glad to know that the chances are we'll be seeing him again next year with his familiar oldf?j saying Don't draw conclusions before you have your observations Ctwo rear view mirrorsbf' XX ANSBROUGH- Sandy is one of our tall jovial members. Like VlA's import from Glebe in 1951 fDoug Maclaeanj he has added a lot of life to the school. VVith his motorcycle, it is a small miracle that he hasn't taken away quite a bit of life too, but to date he has managed to leave Ashbury as numerous as he found it. He starred on our First Football and Hockey teams and is also an absolute genius in playing basketball, if you don't believe us, just ask him! THE .4SHHL'Rl,-IX s ln school . . . well anyway ic is a good fellow. a terrific vocalist. and a competent athlete.. lle hasihccoiue quite attached to his motorcycle this pant-leg caught in the ehainl as well as to Cierry. Speaking of motorcycles. he can also claim the distinction with .Iohn Gill of racing past the Princess at 70 niilcs an hour. l le isn't sure of his plans for next year. hut we wish hint all the hest wherever he goes. YUUXGKR-:Xs the smoke from his leaking exhaust pipe clears from our eyes. and we slowly drag ourselves out of the ditch in which we leaped to avoid his corlin on wheels, we rcgretfully say good-bye to Robin Younger. llis liery red hair, as distinctive and bright as the tail light on his ialopy tif it had onel will he missed next year as he departs to R.Nl.C. But. after all. we're lucky to have got out of his path before he started driving a tank! ln his ten years here he has gained a reputation as a brilliant if irregular student. an unspectaeular athlete, and a leader in Ashbury's Nlotorized Signals Corps. His rumble seat has become an annexe to the senior commonroom. lndeed we think that even if he is going himself, he should donate his ear as a historical relic to Ashbury. Hell there it is, our whole form, with the exception of Foulkes. Fraser. Gill I, NlacLaren and McCulloch I-Call prefeetsl. Next year will see manv of us spread all over the Country, far from the iron hand and acid tongue of our Form Masterg the business-like methods of our Science Master, pushing our noses through the grindstoneg the penetrating tones of our maths-teacher, disturbing our quiet siestasg and all the other things that make Ashburv what it is. We go, but as Generals or Privates. Prime Ministers of jailbirds. Businessmen or Bankrupts. Scientists or Salesmen, we bet each one in our form will make his mark in the world. X F THE ASHBURIAN FORM VIB BLOOMSTUNE- Bloomers', put in his Hrst appearance at Ashbury about the middle of the football season. In the rare moments when he was able to tear himself away from the telephone, he added his not inconsiderable weight to the First Football and First Hockey Teams. He occasionally turned up to the odd class, looking like a lost Saint Bernard, where he was always ready to engage in bitter debates on the merits of the Quebec educational system. Having sampled what Ashbury and Montreal High School have to offer, Bob is off next fall to Syracuse University.. BURKE-jack rejoined us late in the winter term, after a two-year rest cure with the United States Marines. Having risen to the rank of Sergeant in that organization, he was able to give some professional advice to the 4th Platoon in our Cadet Corps. VVe,ll bet that he found it a far cry from the Marines. CARDINAL-Made famous by Cardinals Cast-iron Corsets CPatent applied forjb which he demonstrated for about two months, Lester is now enjoying the comfort of sitting back in a chair- something which was impossible in his cast. The back injury which he suffered in the football season put him out of action for most of the year, and our school teams suffered the loss of one of Ashbury's best all-round athletes. VVe sincerely hope that he'll have better luck next year. DODGE-This summer, after a strenuous CPD year of captaining our star hockey team, and playing in the line in the football season, jack is going over to Europe. One of the more familiar sights around school in the spring term, was jack and Howard bound downtown to fix their visas. We're not sure how far jack will get in Europe, but anyway it should be an interesting trip. THl'f :ISHBURLNIN ml H NSON-Big Dave is no long-haired musician. 'lihat is to sav that the questionable music that comes out of the tuck shop everyibreak is not classical. As for his hair . . . well, for the Cadet inspection he really outdid himself and got a short haircut as per regulations freducing his hair from 9 inches to 7 inches in lengthl. Although not known for hard work, or for anv work if it comes to that, Dave manages nevertheless to do a fair job when exams Collie along. CHEN-.Nlurray is one of the brighter and funnier boys in our form. An artist on the loose, it was never any trouble to identify' any books that he lost-they were inevitably covered with drawings. After school, he can usually be found pattering down to the streetcar stop, even though he does live in the othei direc- tion. A reliable player on the first football team, .Xlurrav has also started to ski this year, for the Hrst time, and is not doing too badly. Does anvone want to buy a pair of skis, slightly used, cheap? YVell. Alurray's are not for sale-yet. LEE-Bill was the foundation around which our first hockev team was built this year. lt was his outstanding work as goaler which made possible the success of our team. His work as Civilian Instructor in the Cadet Corps was also one of his major contributions to the school. Bill has moved to Chicago, where he intends to go to Northwestern University. LLYIOYNE-Although French-Canadian in background, Rav has had a difHcult time convincing Nlr. Brain of this in French class. ln his schoolwork in general, he has shot ahead with amazing speed- beginning the year in VIC, and finishing by getting recommended for his year in VIB. Towards the end of this, his first year at Ashbury, Ray was also made a room-captain. Not a bad year's work! NIACNEIL-Hugh has spent his last year at Ashburv lavin in the . P . g first team of every sport except soccer, and did very well in them all. He distinguished himself in class bv getting all of his junior Matric, and with respectable marks at that. He has been regarded with suspicion by most of his classmates, DOI to mention Mr. Brain, ever since the weekend of the ski trip when he did his French Prep in half an hour after lunch, and got the same mark he usually gets when he spends hours CPD on it. Next year, Hugh is off to Dalhousie U, which is somewhere among the lobster pots of lower Nova Scotia fnot to be confused with Lower Slobovial. llis imitations of certain Ashbury' masters, which have amused us all for the past year, will no longer be heard. Some poor unfortunate professor at Dalhousie will probably replace them as victims of his acid tongue and killing caricature. Q THE ASHBUR1.-IX IIORLQ-Fresh out of Brockville, Dave has been slowly getting used .Xlczfl to the awful pitfalls that lie in wait for any new boarder at this school. Ile distinguished himself right off the bat, by being able to drop Latin, in a long, hard, toe-to-toe battle with Nlr. Brain. This feat has brought one or two of the less fortunate to his door to ask him how it's done. LYLLOCH-Pete has become one of the more outstanding figures at Ashbury in the six years he has been here. His distinctions championship of the school, is also a room captain, a chapel Football, Hockey and Cricket football team, and took it quite include the heavyweight boxing Connaught House colours, and he clerk, and a member of the Hrst teams. He was quite a star on the seriously-many's the time we've heard of him running interfer- ence against john Gill, out on the Aylmer road. SCHACHER-Ronaldo is VlB's banana republican, and also quite a man of the world, having been to Europe last summer. His not infrequent arguments with the masters, usually end up in a com- pletely unintelligible and incoherent muttering, which never helps him to get his point across. He is a photographic Hend, and has a priceless set of cameras and equipment which he will sell you- if you can produce the small fortune he wants for them. Having him around our form has made things interesting, at least. XVARNOCK-After a year of fooling around, doing little work, and appearing to do almost none, Bob fooled almost everyone by getting a full junior Matric, While Mr. Powell is still recuperating from his 2nd class in Algebra. Maybe the brisk morning air that he breathes while poling his boat across the Gatineau River at 6:30 every morning, has wakened him up. VV hen not driving up to or back from his cottage up by VVakeHeld, he can usually be found driving up to some secluded spot, Where he hunts. lVe're not sure yet what he hunts, but if all the stories he tells are true, he's quite an expert.

KLEINHANS-Brother Dick is our six foot specimen of manhood? Look at the hair on my legs, boys. He hails from the good old U.S.A. but seems to find a good percentage of the Canadian female population to his liking.

XYILSON-Last but not least is Robin, the other red-head of the form. VVilly hails from the Eastern Townships and has been coming to Ashbury for eight years. See you next year Robin!

EMBO BROXYN, the first of the unholy 3, weighs more than his car. He spends more time out of class than in and suffers from 'test1tis'. J PAUL CARDIN.-XL is known to breathe at times.

Registration of all Old Boys took place on Saturday morning between the hours of 9 a.m. and l pan. in the Reception Room. At 10 a.m. the School played B.C.S. at rugby. This was a very exciting game which the School unfortun- ately lost. At 12.15 p.m. there was a Buffet Luncheon held in the Gymnasium arranged and produced by the Ashbury Mothers' Guild. This was a great success, and afforded an opportunity for the Old Boys to renew many acquaintances. In the afternoon tickets were obtainable for the Rugby game between the Toronto Argos and the Ottawa Rough Riders. At 8 p.1n. a Dinner Dance was held at the Country Club. A. B. R. Lawrence, President of the Uttawa Branch of the Association was the Chairman at the dinner at which the speaker was the Headmaster. Some 60 Old Boys and their wives were present. In his off-the-cuff address, Mr. Perry expressed his delight and confidence in the support given the School by the Old Boys. In his remarks on the School, he said he was impressed by his staff which was, he was certain, the best of any private school in Canada. It was the answer to the type of training expected and required of the school. There was, he told them, a full school and in the number were many interesting boys of different nationalities. The opportunity and responsibility for their training was realized. The one regret and sad note of the diamond jubilee celebration was that the founder, Dr. VVoollcombe, was not there. Dr. Vlfooll- combe, he said, had looked forward eagerly to the event. The evening was a most successful affair, and enjoyed by all. On Sunday morning, a service of Holy Communion was held in the Chapel at 8.30 a.m. The celebrant was Rev. A. Leaker, from Christ Church Cathedral. At ll a.m. a special Old Boys Service was held. The lesson was read by N. Rhodes, Esq., an Old Boy and Chairman of the Board of Governors. At this time, His Excellency, Viscount Alexander of Tunis unveiled the 1939-45 Temporary Roll of Honour which the Headmaster read after the unveiling. The special preacher was the Rev. XY. D. Christie, B.A., Chaplain, the Governor General's Foot Guards. To the Old Boys' Committee and Executive who arranged the weekend go a special word of praise. The Committee was made up of: Lt.-Col. l. T. Dewar, Malcolm L. Grant, XV. F. Hadley, L. D. Palmer, j. A. NlacGowan, and Capt. XV. G. Ross. This committee worked with the lixecutivez A. B. R. Lawrence, Capt. G. A. XVoollcombe, P. T.

TRUTH Ret: to the professional tradition which the Ashbury-lflmwt,od Players have maintained over the years, the curtain of the Little Theatre rose promptly at 8.30 in the evening of Xlareh 21. He were at once swept into the tense excitement of a brokers office. Sibley down a couple of points-Price holding firm-Belcher moving up rapidly. Against this background of speculation, an amus- ing and exciting situation develops. lj. Nl. Ralston, the senior partner in the brokerage house, has a lovely daughter, Gwendolyn. One of E. .Xlfs partners is Robert Bennett, an idealistic and susceptible young man. Can it be that he secretlv loves the beautiful Gwen? Yes, of course he does. His idealism convinces him that the truth and nothing but the truth should pass the lips of any man. When the other members of the firm wager that he will be unable to tell nothing but the truth for a period of 24 hours, he accepts. By an unusual coincidence, the money at stake is exactly the amount which he has been given by Gwen to double overnight on the market. As can be imagined, the next twenty-four hours bring complica- tions and embarrassment. Complications because our truthful young man appears to be losing the love of the beautiful Gwen. Embarrass- ment because Robert's partners take utmost pains in placing him in the most unfortunate situations. Robert must tell Ethel what he really thinks of her singing, he must tell her what he reallv thinks of her hat, and, O tragic moments, he must tell customers the real value of stocks which E. Xl. is pushing. However, the hands of the clock slowly move to zero hour. Robert wins the bet, and Gwen, and everyone is happv. The play was a good one for the schools to produce, and the result was smooth and enjoyable. The adults in the audience were as amused as the students. Graham jackson and Diana Fraser. who played Robert and Gwen respectively, gave excellent performances with just the right touch of comedy to their parts. john Fraser. as LQ. Nl., acted his diHicult role with sureness. Peter Gilbert did well in the part of Dick Donnelly. a partner in the brokerage firm. Xlable and Sable jackson played by Sandra Xlcliee and joe Anne Davis were two ladies whose presence on the stage was disturbing to all the actors in one way or another. The audience loved it! Allan Rosenberg as a young-man-abtnut- broker's oHices was particularly good. A 114 THE ASHBURIAN l. Leslie Anne jaeksung 2. john lfmserg 3. Sandra Alelieeg 4. Back stage presenmtiong 5.

Grimsdale turned in one of the best performances as Bishop Doran, a clergyman who had a great deal of business sense beneath a saintly exterior. Leslie Anne jackson, to whom we can always look for excellent performances in the Ashbury-lilmwood plays, outdid herself this year, l think. Diane Boyd did very well as the poor young thing whose singing was so atrocious, and whose hat . . .Y Suxette De XYolf was good as Alartha, the maid. Nlr. Belcher again produced and directed the play and the major credit for the successful evening must be given to him. He was ably assisted by Mr. Devineff Mrs. Al. XY. AlcA'Nulty produced natural results with the make-up. The crew of efficient stage managers were Ci. Xueman. P. Alcflulloch, XY. Slattery and P. Foulkes. The Ashbury-Elmwocmd Players are most grateful to the Little Theatre which supplied many of the costumes, and to Alrs. Nlurray of the Little Theatre who kindly assisted with the inake-up. 'I should like to express my warmest thanks to Xlr. Devine, who so ably and cheerfully took over the work and responsibilities of the final rehearsals and production of the play when I was unable to be present.-A.B.B. THE CADET CORPS N the whole, this year was a successful one for the corps. The autumn saw us brushing up on our drill. training the recruits. and lining the route Cabout 100 yards of ith of the Royal Tour. With the coming of winter, we were forced to go indoors for our training, utilizing the gym as a Parade Square and the classrooms as Squad Training Areas. We attempted to follow a diversified training program during the winter months to acquaint every cadet with the methods, weapons and aims of modern warfare with special emphasis on the infantryman's job. As a climax to the term, Brigadier Pat Bogert, an Old Boy of Ashbury, inspected us before leaving for Korea and was impressed by the smartness and steadiness of everyone on parade. After inspecting the corps in the gym, he followed us to Rhodes Hall where he gave a short and inspiring talk on his own experiences and also the purpose of cadet training. Finally. he asked for a Cadet half holiday, which endeared him to every boy. The coming of spring brought with it the return to the great outdoors for our cadet work, but it also brought the annual inspection which was, at the beginning of the Spring Term, only about four weeks away. At this point we received a number of new recruits. mostly 116 THE ASHBURIAN Lt. General Simonds inspects Cadet Corps. from the choir, who went to work with a will and, we are pleased to sav, behaved like veterans in the inspection. Since Cadet Inspections are no longer going to include that old stand-by, the Mock-Battle, it was decided that we would have one before the inspection. Accordingly, one Saturday near the end of April about thirty-five of the better cadets, complete with Sigs. and First Aid squads, set out for a rendez-vous in some woods near the Uttawa Canoe Club. Attack, counter-attack, retreat and attack followed in quick succession until the Red Defenders were forced down to the Ottawa River where, after expending all their powder and shot against fearful odds, they felt it their duty to avoid further bloodshed, and surrendered . The battle was greatly increased in realism by the use of .303 blank cartridges Cliy permission of the R.C.M.P.- N Divisionj and a few Hrecrackers Cheavy artilleryj. lt was thoroughly enjoyed by all. even by the spectators who were overrun more than once. All too soon the 15th of May and the Inspection were upon us. l lowever, the corps went through its movements with accuracy which l.t.-Cen. C. C. Simonds, C.B., CBL., D.S.U., C.D., Chief of the General Staff, the reviewing officer, described as being as good as when he was in the corps, although in his day there was very little squad training and much more drill. Man, it's a far cry from the old days! VVhen the ceremonial part of the inspection was over, demonstrations were given in seven branches of training: .Nlap Llsing Csand tablel-C!Capt. .l. ll.

Then a mass P.T. display was followed by a demonstration of apparatus work by the gym teams and a grand finale in the form of a set of giant pyramids in which every cadet took part. The company then formed a hollow square around the General for his remarks. These were short, consisting mainly of his escapades at the school, praise of the corps' efliciency and a request for a half holiday for the corps. He gave out three awards, the rirst one, for the best shot in the corps, to C,fCapt. H. Gill, the second, for the best recruit, to Cdt. Terry Finlay, the third. for the best senior cadet, went to CfLt. G. C. Carne. The inspection was concluded by the band of the Royal Canadian Regiment under Lt. XY. Armstrong. CD., playing God Save the Queen . Although great progress was made in our connection with the G.G.F.G., our affiliated unit, even greater progress is expected next year, as it is hoped that we will be allowed to use the Connaught Ranges for rifle and Bren firing Cworking with G.G.l7.G. weapons.J The Guards have done a great deal for us, even it they did not turn up for the Church Parade on May 25th. However, it rained, as usual, so thev did not miss much. This was the thirty-sixth and last parade of theiycr. The words of the CLC., Cfalaior G. S. XYharton, we feel sum up the year excellently: lf we are not the top. we are very close to it. if X . .9 r N . 'XXX N. H, 113 THE ASI-IBURIAN THE SCHOOL DANCE N 'rule evening of Friday, April 18th, the first joint Ashbury- Flmwood dance was held. The decision to merge the two formal dances was made after the death of the late King had resulted in the postponement of the Elmwood Formal until April 18th-the date favoured for the Ashbury Formal. At 9.00 p.m. or thereabouts, the boys began to Hll the Elmwood gym, where the dance was held. The halls and other rooms of the school had been lavishly decorated by a hard-working group from both schools, during the latter part of the Easter Holidays and in a frantic last minute rush the night before. The finished product certainly was well worth the effort. The guests were received by Mr. and Nlrs. Perry, Mrs. Graham, Al McCulloch and Pat Knowlton. We were very lucky in being able to get Mr. Cammy Howard and his orchestra and the excellent music provided by them went a long way to making the dance the success it was. Thanks are also due to the Flmwood Nlothers' Guild who pro- vided the food. The position of Master of Ceremonies was filled by john Fraser and Phil Foulkes, who kept the dance running smoothly and were responsible for the distribution of the prizes. They fulfilled this task with reasonable efiiciency, and at least managed to avoid such obvious tricks as awarding the prizes to each other. XYhen the strains of God Save the Queen at 1.00 a.m. announced the close of another Ashbury formal, it was for everybody the end of a memorable evening. Certainly the first Ashbury-Elmwood formal dance can be classed as an unqualified success. THE .4SHBURl.4.X' 111, READOVER CCORDING to custom the entire school was assembled in Rhodes llall on the morning of june -lth, the day before closing. fo hear the Headmaster's Readoyer and the announcement of names and standings of the successful junior Nlatriculants. ln his readover, Nlr. Perry reviewed school activities from the beginning of the year. llc spoke of the football season, in which the First Team had not fared as well as we had hoped, but at least had succeeded in scoring one signal victory, the return game with R.Xl.C.. and in which our Third Team had scored an unbroken series of wins, of hockey, where we had defeated Bishops but had lost to Lower Canada by a one-goal margin: of skiing where we had also won all our competitions-notably against Bishops, Lower Canada and Sedbergh: and of cricket, in which we had won from Bishops in both matches. He referred with gratification to the completion of the new tennis courts and cricket 'nets', the highly satisfactory showing at Cadet Inspection, the purchase of a new tractor for work on the grounds, and to other additions and improvements. The academic work and progress he characterized as generally pleasing although, he said, we were always hoping for still better records. He added words of praise for the efforts of both teachers and pupils of the School. Mr. Perry spoke with deep regret of the retirement of Fred Oliver who had worked in the School so capably and faithfully for so many Vears, and of Mr. Price who had been with us brieiiy but brilliantly as Junior Housemaster. The junior Nlatriculation standings were then read to eager ears by Nlasters teaching the respective subjects, and presently the ceremony was brought to a close when McCulloch, the Head Boy, called for three cheers for the Headmaster which were rendered heartily by Boys and Staff.

Stephen Bodger CLUSING EXERCISES N Thursday, june Sth, the closing exercises were carried out on the traditional pattern. The Track and Field finals were run off in the morn- ing before a large and enthusi- astic audience and comprised many closely contended events. An innovation this year was the Ashbury Nlothers' 60-yard dash. Although the line up, of almost a dozen entries, was attended by much hilarity on the part of the contenders, the runners surprised many of the onlookers by the display of an amazing burst of speed. Stimulated by this example, the annual running of the Old Boys' race consisted of a larger number of participants than has been seen for years. The winners of these races were, respectively, Mrs. G. Tyler and Mr. livan Gill, junior. E is Bogert wins. Prizes for the lllUI'l1il1giS events were presented to the winners by bl. S. Irvin, lfsq., Old l3oy and Parent. At 2:45 p.m. the Leaving Service was conducted by the School Chaplain, the Rev. YY. LI. Lord, assisted by the Headmaster, R. H. THE .4SHBL'Rl.-IX 134 Perry, lfsq., and immediately Qiagg' afterward the General Prize- , 7' Giving function was held on A the shady lawns. The weather, , ' alwavs such an important and uncertain factor, was more favourable to the ceremonv than it has been for several years, as the sun shone tem- R peratelv and evenlv through- out the afternoon. The Chairman of the Board of Governors, lf. N. Rhodes, Esq., opened the exer- lit-in-t-rs wins. cises bv a tribute to the School Founder, the late Canon G. P. XYoollcombe. llc proceeded to announce the inauguration of a third house at the School, to be named Alexander House, bv kind permission of the former Governor-C.ieneral. lie spoke glowinglv of the progress of the School and introduced the Yaledic- torian for the vear, Allan McCulloch. the llead Boy. The text of the Yaledictorv is to be found elsewhere in these pages. The Headmaster then gave his Report, thanking the governors for their active interest in school affairs, reviewing achievements in classroom and on playing field, and referring to a promising rite of enrolment for the coming vear. There was one note of sadness from the platform when a farewell was addressed to Alr. F. Oliver. school engineer since 191+ Tribute was paid to him bv young Stephen iYoollcombe, grandson of the founder, and presentations were made on behalf of the Bovs, the Governors. the Staff. and the Old liovs. N Academic prizes were pre- sented bv the Rt. llon.

D. .lfc'C11ff0c'b, Head Boa' Xlr. Chairman, Xlr. Ileadmaster, Ladies and Gentlemen: This is the last Ashbury closing in which I will be taking part as a student of the school. I cannot help looking back at the other cere- monies of the six years I have been here. It doesn't seem so verv long since I first came to Ashbury. Everything was strange to med and fl was somewhat bewildered by this new world. Now, as I leave Ash- bury, I feel I know the school very well, it is only when I think back that I realize what changes have taken place both in me and in Ashbury. Anyone who was here before the regime of our present llead- master can appreciate the changes which he is responsible for in the appearance of the school. Xlr. Perry has made many improvements in the school buildings and grounds. Changes have taken place on the staff also. Indeed Xlr. Belcher, my present English master, taught me Latin in my first year, I hope he finds my English today better than my Latin was six years ago.- But in spite of these physical improvements, I do not believe the spirit of the school has fundamentally changed. I hope it never will. As Ashburians, we have had the personal attention and interest of our masters, and I know we have always enjoyed ourselves during our stay at Ashbury. It takes an exceptional school and a fine headmaster and staff to combine work and enjoyment. We have learned a great many lessons at Ashbury, I do not mean only Algebra, or History, but we have learned more important lessons -on how to get along with all kinds of people, people of different nationalities, different temperaments and with different characteristics. Being in Ottawa we have the opportunity of meeting boys from all corners of the world. It is a credit to Ashbury that boys from Europe. South America, and North America, do live together happily despite national differences. Those among us who have been entrusted with authority in the school, as Prefects. Room-Captains. or Cadet Officers, have been given the opportunity to develop qualities of leadership and responsibility. :Xt all times we have had the active help and encouragement of Xlr. Perry, Xlr. Brain, and all the other members of the staff. I feel I must point out to those of you who hope to become Prefects or other school officers that it isn't as easy as it appears. The attitude and the cooper- ation of the boys is vital if we are to succeed in doing our jobs well. I would like to thank you for the excellent way in which you have co- operated with us this year. Un behalf of the Prefects I would like to thank all the masters for their support and understanding, and most particularly we want In thank Xlr. Perry, without whose guidance and interest in us. we would not have been able to accomplish what we have for Ashliury. '1'HE,-ISHBURIAN IJ OI.IYl'R V l THE .-1SHBL'RI.4.Y lj., OLIVER 'C Roland for your Oliver , says the old adage. 'lihe passing uf the years has brought a Roland to .-Xshburv-and a good imc. too-but none can ever give us back our Oliver, for he is ineiimparable, and, to all Ashburians, irreplaceable. The mould was broken when he was made, and we shall not look upon his like again. just before the first Great Har, not long after Ashbury was finally settled upon her present site, there came a young manicallcd Fred Oliver. His manifold abilities were soon revealed, and he himself no less firmly established in the Ashbury community than the School upon its foundations. His functions were innumerable - engineer, groundsman, carpenter, plumber, electrician, imperturbable relief in any and every crisis among the domestic and maintenance staff, guide, counsellor and friend. His title was never fixed, for none could cover all his incarnations, but he needed none: to all he was just Oliver, a name of great honour. Olivers outstanding quality was strength, of body and of character. There are two abiding monuments to his amazing vitality: the magnificient stone wall which circles the northern side of Ashbury, built with his own hands of boulders taken from the property, and the Intermediate Field, at one time as much as twelve feet deep with water in the thaw, which he filled and levelled to the fine piece of turf we have today. Indeed, there is no corner of building or grounds which does not bear witness to his interest and skill. Complementary to his strength were his kindness, his gentleness. his humour and his wisdom. No demand seemed heavy, no twist of circumstance harsh, no problem insoluble, when it had been submitted to his unique combination of vigour and shrewd benevolence. Genera- tions of Masters, starting with our revered Founder, had looked to him for support and advice. Xlany hundreds of Old Boys remember with affection his tolerance, his helpfulness, and his sense of fun. Nor must we forget the part played by Hrs. Oliver. The superb meals, which as head cook she turned out for so many years, her work in the sewing room, her unfailing readiness to lend a hand in any emer- gency, above all, the home which she made for her husband, all were vital factors in the service which this wonderful team gave to Ashbury. And now we have come to the time of parting. Oliver. accom- panied by Henry , retires on pension to be with his family at Heston, where his universal competence and his brilliant ventriloquism will doubtless enable him to start a second career, marked. we hope. by a little more leisure than his first. He are left with only our regret. tinged with pride at having been privileged to know and work -with such a man-a man in every sense of the word. .Xs they said of the builder of St. Paul's, so may we at Ashbury:- If you want a memorial. look about you! i 130 THE ASI-IBURIAIN' ACKNOWLEDGMENTS is wish to tender special thanks to the Ashbury College Mothers' Guild for their many activities this year on behalf of the School. During the Easter Holidays the ladies of the Guild were hostesses to a most successful and highly enjoyable fun night held in the gym, with prizes for games, and refreshments served. The proceeds of this well-organized and enthusiastically patronized evening were turned over to the School, to be applied to the purchase of new gym equipment andfor the provision of a scholarship fund. XYC wish also to express our thanks to all those who have donated books to the school library. MR. PRICE L'rHoUoH the end of a school year brings with it a pleasurable sense of achievement and release, it also brings a touch of sadness in the partings which it inevitably implies. This year, for example, we had to say farewell to Mr. 'Tony' Price who is leaving us after all too brief a stay as junior Housemaster. Many of the Staff remembered him from his schoolboy days here and were delighted when we heard last summer of his appointment. He proved to be all, and more than all, that our memories of him had prompted us to hope for. Under his tutelage the Wing ran like clockwork, his personal interest in each individual boy was keen and understanding, his teaching was sound, his discipline was firm but popular, his admin- istration was eflicient. As a games coach also, he made invaluable contributions. His Third Football Field enjoyed a most successful season, and he coached the Ski Team to sweeping victories in all its contests. And, perhaps almost as important, he proved a most congenial member of the Common Room. On the day after the closing, a gathering of the Staff was held at the lleadmaster's house where the Head made a brief but heartfelt farewell speech to Tony and presented him with a small memento from the Stall. XYherever he may go, he takes with him the best wishes of :Xshbury and we hope that we may some day see him hack at the School. THE .4SHBL'RI.4.'R' 11, LITERARY SECTION THF, RISING Ulf Tlrllf SAP HI-I rising of the sap means many things. To the money market it means more money, to the farmers, their crops, but to' the nature lover it means the buds of spring. To such people the promise of spring means more than mere money. lt means the herald of summer, the promise of happy days. The beginning of winter is greeted with joy by the skiing and hockey fans. But when the sap begins to rise the thoughts of these too turn to dusty baseball stands, or to cross-country runs. or cricket. or swiimning. Those who are new to Canada sometimes think that the spring will never come, but when it finally does they greet it with happy hearts and joyful feet upon the green grass once again. I must tell you it is necessary always to have little creatures around us. The squirrels who play and steal so roguishly are fun to watch. The plants that spring up are necessary to feed the animals and birds whose playfulness lights up the most dreary yard. A garden is a paradise, not only to these, but to worms even, the necessary cultivators of the soil. S0 when you find your pail of sap upset and surrounded by tiny footprints, do not begrudge the loss, the pixie plunderers may need it more than you. ' Hitsiimis, um THE THIRD TEAM vs SELNYYN I-IUUSE How keenly we trained for this epic match Strengthened our hands for the hardest catch. Oiled our bats, prepared our gear, Practised so hard, we had naught to fear. In dreams we did the hat trick thrice. Then, such was the training of Nlr. Price. We scored five hundred by half past three And were promptly enrolled in the Xl.C.C. The day of the match dawned dark and drear. The telephone rang and the words came clear. Grounds under water, there'll be no play But our triumph will come some other day. XYi-isrox. Transitus 132 THE ASHBURIAN THE HONEST NEVVSBGY Ni-1 dark and dreary night the clouds went rolling past the Centre- ville station where a small boy was selling papers. A merchant hurried up to his newsstand and asked for a Daily Times. The boy gave him his paper and in exchange the man gave him fifty cents. just then the 6.40 p.m. train started to chug out of the station. The man ran to the train and jumped on, forgetting his change. In the meantime the boy was counting out the money. When he had the correct change in his hand he turned to give it to the merchant and discovered that he had disappeared. Two years later that same merchant got off the same train at the same station. The same boy was still at his little stand and instantly recognized the merchant. He Went to him and said, Sir, do you remember two years ago when you came and bought a Daily Times from me and gave me fifty cents? XVell, here is the change, sir. The merchant recalled the circumstance and was very pleased with this boy's honesty. He made a note of his name and address. A few days later the newsboy received a letter from the merchant saying he had a good position for him in his business. HOPKINS, Form II THE PGUL THAT VVANTED TO SEE THE OCEAN HERE was once a little pool lying in the Rocky Mountains in Canada. This little pool was a very inquisitive little thing. Being away up in the mountains the only things he knew about were the green trees, the timber wolves, the grizzly' bears, the deer and a few other animals. He wondered what else there might be for him to see if he could manage to get away. One day a seagull Hew over the little pool telling stories of the wonderful ocean far away. Although he only heard very small bits of what the seagull said, it was enough to arouse his curiosity. Every day during the next week he thought about it and decided he would try to go and see this ocean he had heard about. All through the winter he wondered how he could get there. Finally, he decided that the only time to try it would be in the spring when the thaw came and he would swell up and overliow. He longed for the spring which seemed a long time in coming. At last it was spring! He did overliow and started down the mountain side. Before long he joined a river that led to the ocean. After a day or so of travelling through beautiful forests and over rapids and falls, the river began to hurry him along faster and faster. He raced past towns, villages. mills, cities! It became more and more exciting. Finally he caught sight of the ocean and in moments he was lost in its salty water. lt was just splendid! There were all sorts of boats, lobster traps and once there was a sailing race. He had a wonderful time playing around. THE .-1SHBL'Rl.4.N' 112 In the fall he felt lonesome for his home in the mountains. Une day the sun drew little drops of him up into the sky and formed a big cloud which the wind blew over his home pool.. The air was cofil there so before long all the little drops ran together and fell as rain. He soon found himself back in his old home. He was very happy and contented now because he knew that in the spring he would go back to the ocean to spend another wonderful summer.

The sky was without a cloud, while the sun shone brightly into the dining-room window, affect- ing the silver like a rather superior brand of polish. In short, as it was so aptly put in the morning paper on the table: The storm centre in the southern Tennessee Valley was moving due east, and was not likely to affect the lower Great Lakes region. However, as Klr. james Frederick Witherspoon came in to break- fast, his first thought was not for the beauty of the morning, or for the fried egg on the table, but for his mail. He picked up the top letter from the little pile, methodically slit open the envelope with his letter opener, unfolded the yellow sheet which he drew out, and Without a pause, slowly and deliberately tore it into shreds. He repeated the procedure with the next letter fthe contents of this one were greenj, and the next. The whole of this ritual was carried on in silence. Mr. IVitherspoon was not insane-that is, not yet. He was merely dealing in the most sensible fashion with the endless stream of literature 'that was piped to him by the local government general store via the Post Office Dept. He had no use for triplicates of these invoices, bills, receipts, and order forms which socialized industry seemed to value so highly. To him they were waste-basket fodder-nothing more. He knew only part of the story, though, the bitter end. The whole business began in a U.S. Patent OfIice late in 1952. Patents were drawn out for a new industrial wonder-a machine that could make out fifteen copies of any form at once. Making fourteen copies was too trivial a task for it, and sixteen copies were beyond its powers, but for simultaneously filling out Hfteen copies of the same form, it had no equal. This mechanical marvel rested in obscurity for several years. During this time, Socialism in the form of President Daft and his Socialist-Demcicratic-Republican party, seized America. It was only a few years until everything from the Kentucky Bootleggers Corp. to the local general SIOFCS passed into government ownership or govern- ment control. lt was shortly after this great event that the machine was dis- covered. It happened really by chance. A government efliciency expert looking through Pravda's list of latest Russian inventions, came across this duplicator Cinvented by Putzoifsky in 17035. Checking with the U.S. Patent Office he found that such a machine did indeed exist. It was but a short time until it was decided Qin the interests of efliciencyj that all transactions done by government owned or controlled businesses Ci.e. all businesses! should be done by means of these machines. The disposal of the resulting fifteen copies was left THE .4SHHL'RI.4.N' isa to the ingenuity of the local managers, with the single stipulation that 6 copies were to be sent to the State Capital tot which three would in turn be sent to XYashingtonJ. 'l'hree were to he put in local tiles. With six copies left to dispose of, it is little wonder that the local managers chose to unload as many as possible on the customers! especially in summer when the niarkct for kindling was poor. A week has passed since our story opened. Xlr. blames lfrcderick IYitherspoon turned to his niail.

I want to hear the slap of the boards Against the surfaces-pressed hard to ice. almost. By sun-tanned skiers with sun glasses on sweaty foreheads. I want to hear the ehug of the tow Blending with churn of skis against the Convex slopes. And at night I want to hear the almost silent whisper Of breezes bustling through the fir trees. like taiIeta against taidfeta. And the swish, swish, swish of a chain of night-riders As they wend their way across a moonlit meadow of snow. I Ixaxi., X IX ft? 15 The Hcntdmaster and Xlrs.

Yorxc FR X I-X THE ASHIHJRI.-IX 1,- FOG '1' IS as if someone has poured gigantic buckets of whipped cream all over the visible world. The thick white blanket settles down in the darkened streets, flows through mysterious back lanes, and drifts from rooftop gracefully. The metropolis is hopelessly fogbound. The time is three a.in. in an average over-sized eastern citvwthe place a wide empty street in the midst of ominous gray shapes which might be buildings, a street which, during the day, was jammed with screeching ears and elanging trams. Now it shiinmers wetly, barrenlv. under the oblique stare of street lamps whose power is weakened by the white wisps of fog aimlessly wandering to and fro. The eerie glow of light from the department store windows attempts to break through the stubborn white wall, but on the opposite side of the street it is scarcely distinguishable. Silence-unbearable silence. Then. a faint humming of wet rubber on wet cement-a spectre-like a glimmer of yellow striving to pierce the darkness and fog. A quick rush of air and the car glides by into-silence. Can anything be as maddening, as menacing as silence? Is there anything as frightening, as intriguing as darkness? Have you ever walked through a dark silent alleyway without wondering about the person behind you, without being intrigued with the shadow in the doorway, without having an irresistible urge to run, to get away from the accusing ghosts of conscience? How long has this deathliness been hung over us?-days, years, centuries perhaps-who knows? Suddenly-footsteps. Slowly, deliberately they sound from far up the pavement. Closer-a killer stealthily sneaking after his unknowing prey-or a harmless drunkard returning from a midnight spree. And closer-a robber slinking away from a riiied jeweller's display-or a labourer about to report for the day's work. The sound drifts along the other side of the street. Hill we see the unknown? The fog is heavy-the feet pass by-unseen. And a secret, like many other secrets -great and small-passes into the state of oblivion from which nothing returns. Now the darkness lessens, the metamorphosis from day to night. night to day, again astonishes the world with its dependable regularity, the pale fog is dispelled by the first rays of morning. and a distant bell strikes the seventh hour. The big city is again alive with the horns of a hundred cars. and a thousand feet tread where. a few hours before. there was nothing-nothing but darkness. silence-and-fog.

CARVER, VIA FORM IIIB GOES SKIING N response to the wild call of the Gatineau Hills, Form IIIB donned their skis and toboggans, packs, poles and bed rolls, and plenty of provisions they set off for the Ashbury Ski Cabin in the formidable snow-clad hills. This was a glorious three-day trip, amid the scented green forest and tall leafless timber, and We silently glided down the snow-covered mountain side to the valley below. , Here was a life we had all dreamt of, as we saw before us these snow-covered mountains untouched by man, and yet one could look back and see the tracks of man, straight and narrow, or criss-cross, as we climbed the mountain ahead of us. Then, pointing our skis down the next mountain side of crystal crust, as the wind and snow flew and trees rushed by, we revelled in this wonderful life. This was a different life with the blue heaven above, and the sun turning the mountain peaks into church spires and the tall pines casting cross-like shadows in the white snow below, while the cold, clear air Hlled our lungs, and crisp snow crunched under the hickory boards tied to our feet. Finally, back to the cabin where the pine logs crackled in the fire, where the tea kettle sang for joy, where the food was Ht for a king. Having eaten our Hll and washed up the dishes, we made ready for bed. Then, clad in pyjamas and dressing gowns, we sat around the fire telling stories of the past, and so to bed, thrilled with the day, and with tioughts for the morrow. This life we repeated for three glorious days, and were indeed sorry to sax' good-bye to the Gatineau after a marvellous time. Those of us who went on this trip were: john Wallis and Fred THE .-lSHBL'Rl:1.N' 1:-1 Reid, Gordon Gale and Paul Alallov, lien Stephens and Anthony Sugden, Robert Brouse and letf lliggs, with Roger Strange, the lllll ofbl952. ' ' ' LES IMAGES XYhat things are most like to make a man's soul leap? The soft mauve of a northern evenings twilight, Or the burning crimson of a tropic sunset? A white and Huffy cloud in a blue and topless sky, Or the gleam of a woman's hair Hying in the wind, Across the face of a sunburnt hill? A long white beach against the crashing crescendo of an outraged sea, Or the regular, tell-tale, herring-bone track i On glittering hill-side snow? A weeping willow rinsing its hair in the still, deep water of a lonelv lake, Or a rippling river laughingly exploring the countryside? i All these are sweet-the choice is of the man's own soul. cl.-XRNIC, VIA. THE CHICKEN-CUOPN His is about life at our recently acquired ski-cabin, otherwise known as The Chicken-Coop. There we get up fairly late, cook brunch, clean up and, if the tows are running, cross country into Camp Fortune. If not, we stay and ski on Hocking Bird and Blueberry Hills. fifty yards from the cabin door. Then, in the evenings, we walk into Old Chelsea Csome have even run!! or go around a cross-country course marked out by some of our more energetic members. Some romantic idiots have even been caught jumping at l a.m.! As for mental exercise, I think this next fact will confound many readers: Religion takes up more of our talking time than any other subject! Our religious discussions consist of two types-trying to learn and understand other boys' beliefs, and trying to convert atheists. Such arguments are fascinating. We once discussed racial prejudice too. at some length. CXYe have Canadian, Polish. Australian. lfnglish. and American members, and-oh yes-Hicksl. In the mornings we often discuss yesterdays skiing-the thrills we experienced, and so on. The remember the second turn on 'the Corel sort of stutf. We have learned many practical things at Stoneaeres too. lfor example, how to cook a can of beans-and many other culinary delights 140 THE ASHBURIAN as a matter of fct, how to ride a horse, and how to walk to Beamish and back in one night. And it is such a thrill to wake up in the morning with the sun streaming onto your sleeping bag, while outside a white world of fun is awaiting you. Someone get that fire going! CARNE, VIA. A F AREVVELL And now, at the end of so many long years, VV e pass the last time through your weather'd stone gates. lYe leave and move onward, our joy mixed with tears. And as we move on our hearts turn in salute. Forever hail, and fare thee Well. For all we have gained here, we humbly give thanks For memories, friendships, and Wisdom acquired. It's these that have made us, whatever our ranks, To Ashbury tribute is due for success Far from the pealing of your bell. And now it is over, the colours are furled, And though we have grumbled and cursed you before XVe look back with regret, now our bolt has been hurled. The course has been run, it is time that we go.
