Since 1839 when John Joseph Gurney, a brother of Elizabeth Fry, first encouraged Friends at their Half-Year Meeting held near Newmarlfet to establish a school for Qual-fer youth, through our long history under the Society of Friends, right up to the present chairmanship of Samuel Rogers, our students have had behind them men of unseljish seri-ice and dedication. In particular, we must make mention of the Rogers family which has served our school now for four gen- erations. A few years ago the Voyageur was dedicated to the present Chairman, Samuel Rogers, and this year we do similar honour to his brother, David, in recog- nition of his contribution to our school. The first Rogers to arrive in this area was Timothy who came here in 1801 from Connecticut bringing with him a group of settlers who opened up this district now known as N ewmarhet. His direct descendent, Samuel, grandfather of our pres- ent Chairman, served as Chairman of the old school in the Village of Pielfering until his death in 1903. It was he who established the tradition of scripture reading by the Chairman at one of the llleetings for Worship each autumn term. This read- ing is now done annually at our New Boys' Service by either the Chairman or a member of the Board. It was in 1892 during Samuel Rogers' chairmanship in Piclcering, that Dr. VV. P. Firth and Mrs. Ella Rogers Firth, daughter of the Chairman, were appoint- ed Headmaster and H eadmistress of the school, serving in Piclfering until the fire of 1905 and then reassuming their positions in Newmarlfet from 1908 to 1917. Under their guidance Pickering prospered well and gained both a nation-al and in- ternational reputation. Samuel's son, Albert S. Rogers, succeeded his father in 1903 and served as Chairman until 1932. It was under his guidance that our school was re-opened as a self-perpetuating corporation in 1927, following its use from 1917 as a hospital for wounded veterans of the First World War. During the Firth regime a further contribution to the school was made by the Rogers family through the service of Joseph P. Rogers who served as Vice-Clzairw man of the Board. His elder son, Samuel, became Treasurer of the Board in 1920 and continued in that position until 1932 when he was appointed Chairman, the position he still holds. His younger son, Darid Pearson Rogers, taught at the school in 1912-13, and was appointed to his present position as Vice-Chairman in 1924. Joseph Rogers' daughter, Marjory, was a student at the .school in Piclfering from 1903 to 1905 and her sister Jessie, who is married to Roy lVarren. a member of the Board, attended Pickering College in Newmarket during the First W'orld lVar. Ross and Allan, sons of the present Chairman, were both. .students at Piclf- ering during the thirties and Allan is now Secretary-Treasurer of the Board. His sons, David, James and Stephen, assure for the future the continuation of this re- markable relationship between the Rogers family and Pickering College. I'IARRY M. BEER Seven Look ing Back LOOKING BACK OVER THE PAST YEAR we find that in all aspects 1961-62 has been a good year at Pickering College. Our sports record is enviable with championships and major wins in all our athletic endeavours, our social functions have all been enjoyed by the majority and our problems and misfortunes have been small and few. This would lead one to believe that all is well with each of us and t.hat this year has been a complete success in every aspect. Of course this can not be true and it is only by looking at ourselves as individuals that we can decide whether or not this year has been of assistance to us or not. Have we done our best to get the very most out of the year or have we let things slide to a point where we are no better off than we were at the beginning? Let us each take a good look at ourselves and at Pickering and what it has done for us. The world we live in is a large and complex series of trials to be faced by the individual. In order to be in a position to use our various 'talents to their utmost we must prepare through study. If the goal is at all worth the ta.sk then the only way to work is to the fullest. Our whole system of life is based upon methods proven by our predecessors. The democratic form of government which we so enjoy has come to us from times past, our basis for all the sciences and theories which have led to the great advances in our era in space exploration and atomic power for peace are founded on the works of the great men of the world from every age. Let me bring these broad terms down to where they apply to us. Pickering is founded in many ways on traditions formed in the past and carried forward each year for its students by those who are passing before them. The opening of baseball season with its parade and pagentry, parents' day when the truth is brought forward about student and staff, sports day competition and our Christmas banquet are all traditions on which the life of the student at Pickering is based. The time often arrives when in a mood of superiority we feel that we should leave the past in the past and rely solely on the present. This is an impossibility. Without the traditions adhered to here, our school would not be able to function properly. No one would know quite whalt to do or what to say in an important issue dealing with school policy. We must learn then to accept traditions for what they are and to use them to the fullest possible advantage, not only in our stay here, but in our whole lives. Most everyone wanfts to be an individual and to have credit for his own deeds but on the other hand nearly everyone has at sometime or other found a person whom they would like to model their lives after. More often than not this is a person from the past. We have looked back for a precedent to follow. When in a state of nostalgia we often look back over past experiences recalling both pleasant and unpleasant memories. Seldom a day goes by tha.t we are not called upon to delve into the past for some reason or other. If we are basing our lives on past experiences it is then necessary to make our present day activities worthy of being recalled to memory at a later date. This leads us to the natural conclusion that we must now live our lives to the fullest possible degree in order that our future endeavours will be based on a good foundation. Nothing worthy of being accomplished is too trivial 'to be pushed aside and not be worked at to the fullest of one's ability. In every thing we do let us do it with the vigor which it deserves. Pickering College in the past year has taught us much. Let us accept what she was taught and use it to our benefit.

The Disciplined Will DUCATION IS NOT SIMPLY AN ACCUMULATION or FACTSQ education is a pro- cess of learning how to ask the right questions in the right language so that we may reach the right answers. VVe must learn 'to frame our questions in the right way if we are to be educa.ted in the religious life as well. NVe make errors when we read the Bible without an understanding of the literary language in which it is written. Fundamentalists and Confununists also make errors. Fun- damentalists insist upon reading poetry as history and turn the Book of Jonah's great fish into a literal whale. The Communist Ghermann Titov makes the fatuous statement that he didnt meet God in space, as though God were a celestial pedes- trian. The Christian God is the only God who offers man freedom, and that is why he so frightens us. For most of us prefer slavery to external forces, to our lusts and desires, to respectability, or to laziness fthe traditional sin of studentsb. Why do we fear freedom? Surely because freedom is impossible without discipline. The only free pianist is the pianist who is not at liberty to strike a wrong note. Similarly, the free man is the one who disciplines his ego-centred self so that the Christ deep within him may appear, so that he may indeed become as the sons of God. As Berdyaev puts it t'God is more deeply within me than I am myself . When we push aside our panic-stricken desires, we become what God has made us. We have surrendered our wills to obedience to God and have become priests in fthe body of all believers. Now you may be rebelling against your childhood image of God as an old man with whiskers in a long night gown, and this rebellion is all to the good. But you lIaven't got very far at this point, because Christians have never believed in that tyrant God either. Christians believe in a God who is Love, who is a Spirit who must be worshipped in the spirit. The competence of such a God is not in question, but our competence is in question. It is we who must make pos- sible the expression of this God in our hearts so that evil and wars may cease. The coming of this God into our hearts is a searing experience, for He convicts us of sin and reveals the evil about us. Obedience to God delivers us from the panic of our own fear. Obedience gives us freedom. Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free is the Christian comfort. This does not mean that we may avoid difficulties. Freedom gives us the detachment which comes from being able to live in two worlds at the same time, to live in a fallen world of bewildering 'time and space, but to be of the Community of the Body of Christ. Man is either assumed into the body of Christ, or he is swallowed by the great fish of the world and his own desires, he is either with the powers of light or the powers of darkness. The fishing up of the whale, the slaying of the dragon, is a constant renewal of light in the darkness of time and space. And it is a struggle being waged constantly by us within our own souls. The sha.pe of the battlefield is determined by the vocation to which God has called us, in your case, the vocation of students, and in our vocation we must strive to subdue the Old Adam so that Christ the New Adam may appear. From a Chapel Talk by RICHARD S'rINeI,I+t, B.A., lVl.A. Seventeen Q O O O k O Pllgrlmage and Plc erlng T smiius THAT PILGRIMAGE MEANS T0 MOST or Us, a specific goal, hardship, and trial, and a spirit convinced of the worth of the goal - convinced that some great good is achieved by such self-denial. These factors, I believe, go together to 1nake up one of the major elements in our personalities - a major thread in the fabric that becomes an individual. Pilgrimage is a part of our very being and personality. Our ability to make use of this factor in our personalities, this factor of self-denial and suffering for some future good, determines to some extent our abilities to find purpose and satisfaction in life. But only few spirits are so convinced of the worth of the goal thalt it becomes something absolute, for which everything unrelated to the goal is to be swept aside and ignored. For the rest of us, our quest is made far more difficult because we are prone to be tempted to follow other courses, to seek other goals when the going gets rough. Now you are all pilgrims in a sense. Some of you have chosen the search for truth already, or if you have not you have within you the potential which will soon blossom into dedication. Some of you may have what We might call inftermediate goals - to find a. solution to life's problems which is satisfactory enough to live by. Others are going to be leaving here with nothing in their hearts or minds but a yeaining to have a good time. Pickering speaks to you all. VVe can pick out three separate voices if we Search carefully the experience we are having here. First of all, as in every school, one of the greatest influences is your teachers. They have their own quests, and that may be the reason they are here. Many of these men have given their lives to teaching, and that means that they have given at least a part of them to you. You will look back on the work these men have done for you with thankfulness and gratitude as I do. Most of you will never forget these men, and you will carry with you the influence of their dedication and their per- sonalities for the rest of your lives. Then of course there are the friends you have here. How powerful this voice is, and how often mistaken. You have heard repeated warnings to beware of the induence of this voice, to be strong and loyal to what you believe to be right in the face of this very powerful force. Lastly there is the voice of Pickering herself - a blending of philosophy, and of the action of Headmaster and staff. Being so much a part of the wonderful Quaker tradition, foiuided is put into force by the with the most distinctive not direct you - it does heights as some voices do. on the sound Quaker philosophy of education, which Headmaster and the teachers - she speaks to you voice of all. Oddly enough this voice of hers does not by itself carry you along to greater and greater Rather it speaks to you for a very short time and then is still. The only time she will speak to you after you leave this place is the time you stop to think about her, and you hear the echo of her voice in your heart. While you are here you must listen to the voices of your teachers and friends, and Pickering understands this, and for this reason her voice is gentle and quiet. You can only hear her if you listen. But always her voice is there, and she knows that sooner or later, if only through that echo in your heart she will be heard. From a Chapel Talk by PETER NEWBERY, B.A. Eighteen amatics thello OR THE THIRD TIME IN I1'oI'E YEARS the Pickering College Dramatic Club ehose a difficult and exacting play for its annual production - Shakespeares OTHELLO. This play is extremely difheult to portray owing to the intense emotional aeting and interpretation demanded from the two leading Inale roles, Othello and Iago. There must be a, sharp Contrast, between these two eharaeters. Both Bob Bloomfield, as Othello, and .BH-I'I'.lf Ilyoub, as Iago, portrayed their parts extremely well. Both possess fine aeting abililty and had the neeessary emotional qualities. They generally spoke their lines elearly and distinetly, especially Ayoub's soliloquies when he allowed us to share his devilish plans in an intimate manner. He was evil inearnate. Ile looked evil aIId he spoke evilly. lle was eertainly the intellectual superior of anyone in the play. He was eunning and intriguing. Despite his revolving jaw, whieh was often very distraeting and sometimes made l1is performanee melodramatie, Ayoub conveyed to his audienee his sense of purpose. This was a very demanding role and it was well played. However, it is the interplay of Othello and Iago that forms the texture of this play. Othello superbly apparelled, was noble, honest, and above jealousy - essentially a simple eharaelter. But he was also naive and foolish. This ma.de it very easy for Iago to mould Othellos thoughts and aetions to his designs. Bloomfirtrl gave us all of these qualities, and, indeed, depieted the tragie fiaw in Othello's eharaeter. Among the other male parts, Roderigo played by Jim liver, was easily the best. He indieated his griet. hurt, and anger from the very first seene with Iago. These two players established a good relationship xvhieh was sustained throughout the play. Vassio tErl Snifl.-ol was very dashing in white, adettuately portrayed his part but he didn't reaeh his heights until his first encounter on stage with the eourtesan, Bianea, ti.lI1'f'lwl1e Dulzigl, While Jilin .llelfzie looked the very part ot an outraged tather and leading eitizen, he eoultl have been even better if he had intieetetl his voiee more often. XVhen he shouted Strike on the tinder, ho , he should have bellowetl it and, equally important, there should have been NfllPf4Jf77'I a. noisy response made inside the house. Richard Blaelfstoelf, by lowering his voiee, became a very grave and serious duke. The others, Heal: Blcmlfesztija, Ron Verde, Stephen Bunge, and Uruig Moore, all contributed mueh to the play. Among the female roles the first plaee naturally belongs to Desdemona. Mean SlH'I 1i!llll1l. .lliss Slll I'1lIIIlH was a sweet and gentle maiden, deeply and truly in love with the Moor. This was made apparent all through the play by her quiet and soft voiee although sometimes it was too quielt. This Dart was Well played although, again, there was an absenee of bodily movement which was needed. Emilia is very different from her mistress. She is eoarse, unimaginative, and earthy - humdrum. Carolyn Sltropslizre gave us this type of a. person. She played her part enthusiastieally and with vigour, finally reaehing her glory in the iinal act. Often, however, her voiee was too sharp and shrill which grated upon one's nerves. In many ways, .lltielzelle Dulziy gave the best female pertormanee. She very definitely depieted a brazen eourtesan. But, again, as with Emilia, her voiee often lacked the neeessary piteh and power. However, these girls acted well. Two seenes eall for speeial mention. The first was the drinking scene. One felt as if one wanted to jump on to the stage and join in the singing and .good fun. The other - to go to the other extreme - was the murder of Desdemona. A really high and sustained dramatie effect was achieved here by Bloomfield. The properties and sets prepared by Jlr. Vim and Stzulrt Blaber were strik- ingly simple and gave a ealm baekground to this intense emotional elash. The make-up by Jlr. Jeu-fill, assisted by .l1r. Brelmwr and Slmron Tattrie, was exeellent as were the lavish eostumes. The director, Jlr. Ifcirlekop, is to be heartily eon- gratulated lor a very line perl'ormanee. 1 p J. D. PURDY Glee Club -H. M.

She eertainly clazzletl the captain at times. Every Gilbert and Sullivan operetta has a eomie eharaeter, a buftoon, a preposterous type. In Pinafore it is the noble First Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B. This part was taken by Etlfjflvl' Jlurrloeh, the resiflent music master, who was not quite as pompous or eoneeitecl as is usually expeetefl of Sir Joseph but, nevertheless, inclieatecl that the First Loral was rather an ass! Ralph Raekstraw, the love-siek toreeastle haml, was playefl by Ernest Ifwlel.-op tbearil anrl allll. h'erlel.'op's very fine voiee was very mueh appreeiatetl in this role although at times he hafl a tenfleney to sing' into the wings anfl not towards the audience. Tzeen ty-on e Where did Jim Bear acquire that deep voice? He was excellent as Bill Bobstay. NVe would have liked to have heard more of Leon Siimnons' very fine baritone voice. As always i-t was a pleasure to hear Elizabeth Beer, who played the part of Hebe. The male chorus was lusty and hearty. From its opening, HNVC sail the ocean blue through to the finale one could sense that here was a well balanced group with a. fine musical tone and good dramatic ability. The girls' chorus had a sweet and delicate quality although not quite as strong as one would desire. Special congratulations must be given to Zllr. Chu and his stage crew for the very excellent set which they erected. It certainly created a nautical atmosphere. The lighting and make-up Cyl. II. Jewcllj were all very effective. Indeed, it was a fl1'Sii-l'2liG performance. Let us hope the Glec Club will remain with the G 85 S tradition. J. D. PURDY ther Music at Pickering Although the Glee Club's annual production of Gilbert and Sullivan provides the major outlet for musical expression at Pickering, it is by no means the only one. The Glee Club usually forms early in the fall for the purpose of singing for the sheer joy of it. We were fortunate this year in having two masters who were not only enthusiastic singers but who had also received considerable professional training. Mr. Zlluwloch and Mr. Rwlekop, a. baritone and a. tenor respectively, introduced the boys to forms of singing not usually experienced by the average teenager. At the Christmas Chapel service, for example, each sang a selection from Handel 's Messiah. Some students sustained their interest in instrumental music by individual or group playing during free time. The grand piano was exercised by the boogie Woogie or jazz fan as well as the admirer of Beethovenis Hli'l0I1l1gllll Sonata. There were several other instrumentalists who favoured the Whole school With performances at Pep Rallies or who played to packed audiences in their corridors. These people were masters of such instruments as the guitar, the accordion, the trumpet and the banjo. Musical appreciation was Widespread both in taste and extent. Rock and roll, sophisticated jazz and the classics reverberated through the corridors at Various times to the infinite pleasure of some and the grim aggravation of others. Be this as it may, music at Pickering this year, both fomnal and informal, planned and spontaneous, was very much a part of daily life. Twenty-two .A 2 5 .

There was also one meeting in which the club voted that it wished to Sec the hockey game ot' that night. The speakers of this year were Barry ilyoub, Bob Blomuficlrl, Did.: Blackstociiz and Dulce Ilolbrnolf, and the Il'le1'ks were Lee Sinmums, Elin Agostini, Bill Pratt and Dave Iloldcn. We feel that they did an excellent job. The Polikon f'luli's currieuluin also included our attendance at the Model UN. in Toronto. The five delegates to this meeting and the following com- mittee meetings were Dick Bluchxstnclf, Dave Ilolflcn, Dare Ilolbrook, Ed Soyko, and Petri' Bucchler. They all felt a little inexperienced in this type of a. meeting and thus generally listened to the proceedings. They all felt that they had learned a, great deal and wished that they had taken a more active part. On XVednesday, May the 9th, the club had its final banquet at which Mr. Jluirslznll- Crowe was the guest speaker. He spoke on Connnunisin in Russia and its dangers to the VVest. His speech was thought-provoking and extremely informative. Ed Soyko, the second oldest member of the club gave the club a l1Ll1H01'OUS run- through of the clulfs year thus concluding a splendid year. Twenty-fouxr PETER BUICCHLER Hooters Club HE 'ROOT OF -1' CLUB was under the able direction of Mr. McLaren. and Mr. Jaclmmln. During the course of the year, many of the members spoke on various topics dealing with the general sciences. TO start the year, Mr. Jlchnrcn gave us an interesting' talk on the subject of nuclear structure. Later in the year, hc talked on the functions of an electronic I.B.M. computor. The Other topics were: NVeather, by our club secretary, Jim Watt: Television, by Stuart Blaber, our electronics expert, The Moons Phases, by Bob Bl ?l'l'lt01'lV,' Kon-Tiki Expedition by Ron V calc: Oil Recovery and Production, by Ilcfnk BlfL'llk6.9it'tj7l,,' The Operation of Internal Combustion Engines, by Bill Jolzxnstong Radium and Its Uses, by Dennis Honsg Air Contamination, by Steve Runge, Ura- nium Recovery and Production by Rick Risso. All these talks were extremely informative and were enjoyed by all. Our field trip this year was to the General Motors plant in Oshawa. This is the largest car manufacturer in Canada. Here we observed the production of a car from start to finish and were amazed by the speed and efficiency Oi' the operation. To end the year we enjoyed a sumptuous banquet in company with the Quantum Club. After the banquet, we saw a film on the subject of Time and its various correlated constituents. We feel that all in a.ll the Rooters Club experienced an enlightening and successful season. RICK Risso Back Row: Mr, McLaren, B. Brunton, D. Rieder, S. Bunge, B. Johnston, J. Clark, S.

Our field trips consisted of visits to Mcllaster University to hear Dr. J. Hubert Uppcnlleifnur, Director of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, speak on Nuclear Physics. At Stelco, the Steel Company of Canadafs plant in Hamilton, where we went on our second field trip, we saw from beginning to end the production of steel and other alloys. We also saw many and varied finished products, such as rails, wire and nails. At regular meetings we studied nuclear radiation and its interaction with matter, as well as nuclear fission and fusion.

K Social Activities HE SOCIAL YEAR AT PICKERING COLLEGE has been extremely successful, The school spirit has been very good, and therefore it was possible for our social activities to be enjoyed by all. We started off with New Boys' Day - a day that is famous at Pickering College. The New Boys dreaded it, while the Old Boys wrung their hands with glee at the tortures they handed out. This year, as in the past, the festivities ground to a stop with skits by the New Boys and then everyone watched a. movie. Once again Pep Rallies were employed to lift our spirits to even greater heights before certain big games. The entertainment was all of a riotous nature, and it all seemed to help us make a success out of the big game. The first opportunity for our girl friends to visit the school was the Football Dance. The decorating, under the guidance of Mr. Jewell and Elio Agostfim, changed what is a rather plain Assembly Hall into a veritable dreamland. Another social tradition was observed again this year. We had the girls of Ontario Ladies' College to a dance before Christmas, and they in turn invited us there after Christmas. The Chairmanls Ball this year was another very enjoyable evening. The choice of records was appropriate for it suited the mood and the girls were noted as being particularly beautiful. This is one dance that can be enjoyed by all because the cost is almost negligible. We hope that it shall be even a. bigger success in future years. Once again the Old Boys, the athletes of years gone by, througed through the portals to challenge our First Hockey team and our Senior Basketball team. Youth, stamina and skill were on the side of the current Pickering teams and both Old Boys' teams departed, after a most enjoyable evening, wiser in the knowledge that they are not as young as they were as students. The highlight of the social year is the Spring Formal. This year as in the past. distances from the school made no difference. Everyone who attended felt. that the decorations alone were worth coming for. Congratulations to the decorating com- mittee under Dafue Seibert, lll r. J ewell, and Mr. Chu. The music was delightful and the band of Barry Chute did an exceptionally fine job in their choice of music. Once again many stayed around for the Quaker Relays held on Memorial Field the next day. As always, the Halloween and Christmas banquets provided a nice change ot' pace here at school. Santa Clause arrived on time this year, but had misplaeed a few of his key gifts. His helper Fizzer the Fairy helped find the lost gifts, and brought happiness to all at Pickering. After our reminiscences of the past school year, we can only say that it has been a complete success, and we hope and believe that next year will be even a better one.

Before the actual staging of the various plays we were entertained by a. series of piano solos performed by Ian Patterson in his own inimitable style. His deft touch and sure mastery of the key board were received with gratitude and appreciation by everyone present. The first pla.y on the programnie was presented by Firth House. This was a. major historical work entitled 'Saint George and the Dragon and was adapted from an Old Cornish Play . All of the players showed fine acting ability and a detailed knowledge of their lines. David Davis was a wonderfully chivalrous and courageous St. George. This boy has good dramatic ability and should be encour- aged to develop it. Ben Wei1ibci'g as the Turkish Knight also exhibited a. fine stage performance. Another outstanding a-ctor was big John Bailey with flailing bat as the Giant Turpin. Jim Morgan certainly was a snarling, roaring dragon until he met his final and well deserved end at the hands of the dashing St. George. The other leads, Jan Schneider, David Vcalc, and Ray .llcLclI1m contributed to an ex- citing and soul stirring drama. It was an excellent production - a high point oi the evenings entertainment. The thcspians of grade 9 presented two plays. The first play, The Bench WH1'm6I',,, portrayed a. scene on the side-lines of a football field with some of the extras CJ. Munro, T. Yuill, N. Daviesj warming the bench, hoping their coach CB. Arrowsmithl would send them onto the field. Of course, as in any group of athletes, there was the inevitable braggart. This was Callahan played very well by Bill Kaysmith. According to him he was far superior in skill to the leading player of the team. In this episode the coach finally gave Callahan the opportunity to go onto the field for the star but, it was only to give the latter his pants. A fitting end for a tin plate hero. Grade 9's second play was an historical drama concerning three explorers CJ. Dunn, D. Tweed, J. Morscj who became lost in the wild Mohawk country and only escaped with their lives by defeating the Indians in certain trials of strength and ability. The noble bearing and proud dignity of the Indian chief. P. Mul- holhmd, with his flapping fur robe saved the play from complete oblivion. Interspersed among these plays the Firth House Glee Club presented three selections. The first was a revised version of a chorus from II.M.S. Pinafore. The other two were Negro spirituals. For their histrionic activities Grade 10 presented The Six Gods , a. play based upon the time honoured theme that crime does not pay and that good will inevitably triumph. All of these performers displayed very good acting ability. This bodes well for the future of dramatics at Pickering College. Congratulations should go to the four directors - Nr. J ewcll, HI r. Jim-ri'm-li, Mr. MacLean, and Mr. Ditmlgrcn - for an exciting and stimulating evening ot' dramatic and musical entertainment. Tllifrfy-one .prepfzratory Department W.

It was built during last summer and completed in time for us to move in on open- ing day. The wing has two stories, eonneeted to the lllillll building at both levels. There are two modern classrooms, 311 office for the director, a bedroom housing two boys, and a separate entranee. Outside, the architects, who designed the original building, took great c-are to mateh, in every detail, the graceful Georgian style of lf'irtlI House. As usual, the Prep was quite a. eosmopolitan group. We had boys from: New- market, Toronto, Sault Ste. Marie, Montreal, Kitehener, Barrie, Bronte, Port Credit, Brampton, Hamilton, Ballantrae, Grand Valley, Dundee, Ill., Ottawa, St. Jean. Que., Port tlolboriie, London, tfhatliam, XVindsor, Peterborough, North Bay, New York, a.nd Mexico City. Firth House has a. House Committee eomparable to the School Committee in Rogers House. lt is the duty of the members of this Committee to help the masters keep the PrepaI'atory Department operating efficiently. They take heads of tables during a master's absenee, eheek boys' rooms for tidiness, supervise Saturday evening aetivities in the gymnasium, on the rink, a.nd in the T.V. room, and look alter the Saturday evening snaek. On many oeeasions they meet with the masters and diseuss house problems, aeting as a. liaison between students and staff. This XCHFVS eommittees have been good ones.

It was held in the Grade 8 classroom in the new wing of Firth House. Parents, friends, brothers and sisters were all gathered there having tea and cookies, and talking about their boys at Pickering. The day outside was cloudy and at times it rained lightly, but all life in that classroom was busy, happy and quite talkative! The Prep had two Soccer teams. The A team won two games against St. Andrew's College, tied one game with Upper Canada College, one with Hill- field, and one with Maple Leaf School of East Gwillimbury, and lost three games to Oak Ridges, and one to Appleby College. Although the B team did not do as Well as the A team, they showed good sportsmanship in their games with St. Andrewls College, Oak Ridges, Hilltield, Appleby and Upper Canada College. On the eve of October 31st it is customary for all witches and goblins in the vicinity of Pickering College to come and invade Firth House. As they enter, the Prepsters disappear-in the direction of the dining room. After a sumptuous dinner served by peerless waiters the costumes were judged, we saw a movie, and went to bed tired, happy, and greasy with make-up. Parents' Day was November 25th. It was one of the big occasions of the year. Guests began to arrive at 2:30, and at 3 o'-clock the Old Boys played basketball against the school. Between periods the Preparatory Department put on a gymnastic display under the direction of Mr. MacLean. In all the classrooms, including our new ones, displays of students' work were to be seen and after dinner the dramatic club presented Othello. NVhen the Christmas season came around, Mr. Jewell invited us into his apartment where he entertained us with all sorts of refreshments and played music for us. On the last Saturday evening of the term we all went down to Mr. Jaclmulwfs where we listened to Dickens' A Christmas Carol , and then sang songs under the direction of Jllr. lllufrdoch. Before we went home Mrs. Jackman served us punch, sandwiches, Christmas cake and cookies. On the last day of school We joined the seniors in their dining-room for our Christmas dinner. Later, Santa Claus arrived and distributed suitable gifts to those who had earned them. Mr. lllenaircl coached our hockey team this year. VVe had a good season with a fair number of wins. XVe had live games, one with St. Andrews, one at Lakefield, two games home-and-home, with Hillfield, and one with Appleby. We enjoyed them all. T11 irty-th 'rec One of the highlights of the winter term was the Glee Club's production of H.M.S. Pinaforen by Gilbert and Sullivan. In the eyes of the Preparatory Department an even greater event began the next morning when we started out for our annual week of outdoor education at Limberlost Lodge. Vile learned much from Jlrs. Hill, visiting lecturers from the Department of Lands and Forests a.nd our own masters. We had ski instruction from Mr. Menard and a great deal of tim on skis including races, floodlight night skiing and a cross-country hike and cook-out. The spring term was a very short one, and a very busy one. In the Spring Festival the Prep presented St, George and the Dragon directed by lllr. J ewell, and sang under the direction of Mr. Murdoch.. One of our boys provided piano music between numbers. On Sports Day, along with the rest of the school, our intramural programme was concluded. NVe broke no records, although George Sarre equalled one in the high jump. In the Quaker Relays, where about fifty schools enter teams, two of our boys took part in the C. R. Blaekstoclc relay, we came second. Three teams, captained by Gary Brown, Dennis Carter, and George Sarre, played a series of games in baseball, umpired by lllr. Jaclfnmn.. Carter's team won and the other two tied for second place. The final event of the year for our department was the Firth House Dinner held on the evening of Julie -lth. After a delicious dinner served by some of the boys from gra.de seven, lll r. Menard presented athletic colour badges to those boys in Firth House who had shown skill and sportsmanship in athletics through- out the year. The guest speaker was M r. Trott, Principal of Rosedale Public School in Toronto, who gave us seine worthwhile thoughts to carry away. As the final act of the evening Mr. Beer presented the Rogers Cane to that boy who had best exemplified the ideals of Firth House during the year - namely Raymond illcLcllain.

Some people regard jazz as a trivial form of music that does not merit careful listening. Classical musicians may smile at the notion of good taste in jazz, for many of them regard the whole genre as an undifferentiated mass of bad taste. Yet a careful study will reveal great differences within jazz and in the artistic integrity of its creators. If we are to understand jazz at all, we must first try to dislodge the prejudice that fine music can be creafted only by the division of labor used to improvise a melody. In jazz, I feel we return to the earlier type of classical musical creations, for it is the performers who are the authors of jazz. A melody from Tin Pan Alley or even a tune from a classical composition may form fthe starting point of the jazz piece. Jazz originated among the Negroes and improvisation arose because they could not, as a rule, read music, nor were they familiar with the classical tradition. In every jazz band there is solo improvision and usually accompanied a.t least by the rhytlnn section, and it is in this solo work that fthe great jazz players can best be studied. The genuine jazz idiom was set by improvision and to preserve this element it is very important that the jazz arranger give latitude for improvi- sation in solo choruses. Because it is largely improvisatory, jazz demands a shift of attitude on the part of the classical musician. Despite the varied rhythmic career of classical music, Negro polyrhythm is foreign to classical music. The polyrhythm is usually an instinctive elaboration on two rhytlnns at once having a four-four time. Furthermore, the characteristic Negroid three over four jazz supcrimpositioifa is rare in classical music. In addition jazz has the rhytlnnie element which is a kind of rhythmic 'tmomentum . There is a rhythmic carry-over from one phrase to the next. It seems to be achieved by anticipating or retarding a. note almost imperceptibly. It is not true, however, that this rhythmic element alone gives the essential character of jazz. The jazz ensemble usually contains three sections which are not four-part choirs as in the classical orchestra: percussion tdouble-bass, drmns, piano, guitarj, brass Ctrumpet, eornet, and trombonej and reeds tsaxophones and clarinetj. There is no fixed combination of these instru- ments. Although each of these sections is usua.lly represented, the variety of instruments in any group is very great, from small Hchaxnberl' groups of two or three to large bands of eighteen members. The contrapuntal character of jazz may be inferred from its abandonment of the classical four-part choir, employed as a unit, and the equal value, generally speaking, bestowed on each voice. Its Thirty-eiglzt instriunent technique, furihermore, differs completely from the classical. The man- 11er of sounding in jazz music is inadmissible in classical music. The classical tradition, in my opinion, could gain much by absorbng the ja.zz intonation. The jazz tone is more open , less restrained, rougher and more uniformly intense in feeling. The usual opening of a jazz piece is a sha.rp attack which i.s a special effect, rather tha.n a characteristic in the classical canon. Only a few men, so far as I know, have succeeded in playing well both classical music and jazz. I strongly think that jazz is characterized throughout by an immediate in- tensity of feeling on a level that is not usually sustained in classical music. In classical music the mode of feeling is determined by the composer, in jazz the particular feeling is expressed and determined by the performer or arranger, who is the creator of the music. The sustained emotional intensity of jazz results not only from the rhythm and intonation, but also from the so-called blue note. The note is said to waver between flat and natural. In jazz no care is taken deliberately to set the theme which is usually so familiar that it is assumed a.nd variation begins almost immedia.tely, following the intro- ductory phrases. Usually variations arc played by three or four solo instruments, in turn, after a few ensembled choruses. The theme-and-variations form is perhaps the most basic of all musical forms and permits of an infinite variety of expression. Because it is the most flexible of all musical forms, therefore, jazz serves us as one of the musical expressions of the modern age. However, jazz does not have that organic structural unity that characterizes most classical music. But the fact is that the organic features of the classical theme-and-variations form are also present in jazz. Wlien we consider that not only Frescobaldi but Handel, Mozart and Beetho- ven were a.ll great composers, we realize it is intellectual superiority which made them write the music that came easily to them. We realize that such individuals composed the most difficult of symphonies. On the other hand we consider that the jazz instrumentalist is uninterested and sometimes incapable of writing down his own 1'eal compositions. Thus we can understand why the structure of jazz is almost at a standstill as far as written compositions for symphony orchestra go. The shaping of melody by the instruments involved is something I feel accounts not only for the character of classical music but for the character of jazz. Trying to define jazz is like trying to define poetry. What is poetry? You tell me. I recognize it when I see it, the same as I Hdigi' good jazz when I hear it. Some people write poetry and some just write. It is that certain spark inside that makes the difference. You either like the swing of jazz or you do not like it. There is no half way. LEON C. SIMMONS l Home oming GAINST THE EARLY GREY of dawn was silhouetted a dark sinister rigging. This ghastly mass of logs and planks was constructed in the center of a bridge, which spa.nned the dark waters of a raging river. One beam projected out over the current, near its end, gently swaying in the breeze, hung a rope. Thirty-nine Across the water rang the sound of foot-steps. A small group of men left the road and shuffled their way onto the bridge. Black shining boots, topped by crisp blue uniforms, expressed their neatness. The unisonous sound of their boots was interrupted by a grey bundle of rags which staggered in their midst. He was a shrivelled mass of flesh with hair growing all over his body, in all direcrtions. The procession stopped in the middle of the bridge. The apparition, somehow, moved unsupported onto a little platform projecting over the water. He didn't notice the men about him nor the rope being placed about his neck. Ilis eyes and mind were wandering, travelling into another world. He felt the noose tighten-at a signal the men fell back a. few paces-and with a kick, his feet were knocked from under him. His fall was checked in mid- air with violent abruptness. Gasping for air he tried, at the same time, to rid himself of the deadly coil about his throat, but his hands had been bound to his body. Then he felt himself fa.lling again, tumbling into the dark torrent below. The icy water lashed around his body, reviving his mind. The thought of drown- ing filled him with extra strength, the rope slackened. Arms flailing and feet kicking, he reached the surface, only to be met by a spray of bullets. Under he went again, he swam until his lungs gave out and forced him to come up for more air. NVould he ever reach that shore? Finally, half walking, half crawling, he made his way out of the water and into the welcome cover of the forest. For days he battled his way across swamps and through forests. Pain of hunger and fatigue was always present. Bundles of flesh and blood were his feet, cut by the hostile earth. Would he ever be able to get out of this cruel jungle which had tormented his body? The terrain became friendlier. He could not believe it. At last he had reached his own country. The sun seemed to shine brighter here, while every brook and bird sang him a welcome song. It was summer. Tall and green grew the grass. In great array of dazzling colour, flowers spotted the fertile country side. Home: there was his mountain - actually it was a large hill. Nestled in its lee stood a few buildings. The narrow path still wound erookedly from the house to the road, just as he had remembered it years ago. The front door opened and his wife came rushing out, closely followed by C how he had grownl his only son. Arms outstretched he ran up the path. XVouldn't he ever reach them? He felt a great weight force him to the ground, yet he could never reach the ground for something was pulling him back. He tried to call out, but no sound would come forth. Tears rolled down his face as he writhed in an attempt to reach his wife and son. A gurgle was forced from between his lips when he realized that he would never touch his family again. Then the earth mixed with the sky, house and country-side into a. complete and ominous blackness. The group of soldiers marched off the bridge and down the path towards the garrison. The ring of their boots carried out over the water and past a man, silhouetted against the early morning grey sky. The tears were still on his face as he swayed gently at the end of the rope. JOHN F. W. MCKEE Forty .gt A Royal Hunt UITE OFTEN the Royal Family of England goes hunting. This is a report on one of those very important events in the life of the Royal Family. On April the first the Royal Family suddenly decided to go hunting in Africa, so the prince phoned Lumumba and asked him to get the local Mau Mau together for a hunt. This idea spread like wildfire and other heads of state decided to get into the act, such as Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Diefenbaker. Both Kennedy and Khrush- chev decided to take tanks and other armament along. Diefenbaker decided that an R.C.M.P. horse and a pistol would be sufficient. After all the preparations the hunt was finally organized for June of the following year. Lumumba armed the Mau Mau with Bazookas and sub-machine guns, and the heads of state set out using various means of transportation. A tight twenty mile perimeter was held by the Mau Mau to trap the animals, but since there were no animals in it, some elephants were brought from the Bronx and London Zoos and other animals were taken from the local country. The prince entered the twenty mile perimeter and immediately took a shot at a Zoogalot but only succeeded in slaughtering a. small field mouse. Thus the hunt began. Now the group split into two parties, Kennedy, Diefenbaker and Khrushchev gomg one way and the Royal Family, with Lumumba the other way. The Kennedy group met with ill fortune. No sooner did they get to the summit of a hill and see an elephant, when Kennedy and Khrushchev began to argue over whose elephant it was. Both Kennedy and Khrushehev turned their tanks towa.rds each other and sped to a collision. Diefenbaker in the middle began shooting at them with his pistol to no avail. At the last moment Diefenbaker was seen and they both stopped to hear Diefenbaker order a conference on the summit of the hill. During this time the elephant had left the scene, leaving the conference very close to chaos. The Royal Family in their section were a little more successful having bagged one field mouse and one very old elephant. Later they found the other party and also Joined the conference on the summit. The conference carried on and finally both sides summarized their complaints. Khrushchev said that since the elephant's tail was red, signifying the Russian red star, it should have been his and that he was rudely interrupted. Kennedy said that the elephant was his since the red tail signified the end or least of its desires, in other words it was not Russian, and that he had been rudely interrupted. It all boiled down to the fact that both Kennedy and Krus- chev claimed the elephant, not realising the elephant had come from the London Zoo. Finally the maltter was dropped. Then the real fun began. The Mau Maus being of a different tribe than that of Lumumba began to shoot at him. Khrushchev took the side of the Mau Mans, and Kennedy took the side of Lumumba. Forty-one Seeing this Diefcnbaker immediately took the initiative, took 1ill1'HSl1C'l10VlS tank and began to blow up a few Mau Maus. This discouraged the Mau Mau a little and they left, leaving behind their guns and bazookas. For this action Diefen- baker was congratulated and told that he had averted a world crisis. This glorious and courageous hunt was then ended for that year and they all went to the palace for a delicious cup of tea spiked with Canadian Club. DENNIS HONS - Citizenship N IMMIGRANT STAGGERS, seasick, from his ship. He observes critically his future homeland a.nd hears the longshoremen shouting as they work, in a strange incomprehensible language. He regards attentively different signs and tries to decipher the writing on them. At this time, a process of naturalization begins which finds its climax in citizenship. Immigration officials put a map of Canada in his hand and usher this fresh arrival into a waiting train. From one of the windows, he observes with curiosity the passing scenery. He marvels at the numerous and luxurious cars, the many frame houses and the television antennae. He sees the expensive modern farm machinery and discusses with friends many other aspects of this country. How- ever, not all is just wonder and fulfilled hopes. The inuuigrant scrutinizes con- temptuously the unclean streets and the less elaborate railway stations. He constantly compa.res Canada with the Old Country. More disappointment awaits him. One by one, his countrymen leave him at different stations, and he mournfully says good-bye to his travel companions. Soon he himself steps off the train. He looks around expectantly for Canadian friends and finds no one. NVea.rily and deeply disappointd, he waits - lost in such a large country. Without adequate knowledge of English, he is unable to seek help. He searches for his benefactors address and finds also the telephone number. However, the Canadian dial system is too complicated for him. Still, he eventually arrives at his friends home to find that he had been mistaken in the time of arrival. After the initial disappointment, his heart slowly warms to his adopted country. The abundance of cheap goods and the self-service technique in the supermarkets at first surprise him. He becomes accustomed to the unstable em- ployment conditions, and the buy now, pay later purchasing. Instead of walk- ing, he drives a car now. He has become a definite part of our economy. Culturally, he also makes great steps forward. After a few months' courses in English, our immigrant enjoys life much more. He is now able to make friends. Over the radio, television, and newspapers. he is continually exposed to a steady stream of Canadian culture. More and more, his thoughts revolve around his new country. Jazz and rock n' roll are parts of the American music which he admires. Many new sports enter his life: baseball, football, a.nd hockey. In Europe, he had been a soccer enthusiast only. His letters home and to his friends grow less and less frequent, eventually ceasing altogether. The images of his old friends become blurred and uncertain. Forty-two He has accepted a totally new life, and, consequently his new country has gradu- ally eclipsed the old one. Our immigrant is now far advanced from the helpless, fearful man, who had arrived. Learning our language and customs, he has developed a deep loyalty and affection for his a.dopted country. Indeed, he finally can agree with the famous German scientist who said, when he received United States citizenship, I swear complete loyalty to my adopted country, but I will always honour the country in which I was born. BRIAN MARSHALL Three Prayers I II I often sit and wonder I find no pleasure how and why, where and who: joy or God it seems that all must be a question, well-termed, well-defined and collectively good - yet how many answers turn out so fine and right! I wonder if I really want to know the answers, and does my conscience tear and turn and beg no more for what it knows I will receive? I would not want to throw away the flesh I have so short a time Yet Lord of God if you are there and can hear my sinful sound: give me the strength for now I feel to end it all. III in all I have to do I feel no sense of warmth and love for all my fellow men I see myself alone and sick with no one to enjoy But this I know Cmuch finer than a worthless friendj : There is no life in the day of gloom there is no sun, no moon,' there is however one small thing that sucks this sickly land I t is that God does not feel this but I am sure he knows Hate. If mind, heart, soul and flesh were but one One and conscience, instinct, God Another I would rut of one. Emo AGOSTINI Forty-three Death of a Saint 'r snmis I1x1ross1BLIc. I am referring to the death of Ernest Hemingway. On July 2. l961 he put his double-barreled shotgun between his teeth and pulled the trigger. The explosion blew his head apart and spatte1'ed the gore on the walls and ceiling of his living-room. He was sixty-two. The incredible fact of Hemingway's suicide is difficult to grasp. He didntt shoot. himself because of insanity, depression, or a broken heart. No, this man fought his way to death. That is, he challenged his own courage and guts to force the inevitable into the open. To Hemingway, his own death was the final challenge of life and its trials. This climax was the greatest moment of his life on earth. His ego wouldnt permit him to deny himself the right. to enjoy his own death. A suicide is unusual. Hemingways death was not ordina.ry although it was typical of his everyday actions. Even from boyhood he was an individual. Born into the middle class of Oak Parks, Illinois, Hemingway hated to conform. He had his first girl at fourteen. At nineteen, he entered the war in Italy in the Red Cross Ambulance Corps. During an attempt. to save a wounded Italian soldier from no man's land , Hemingway was seriously wounded. His body received 256 bits of shrapnel at close range. It only slowed him to a crawl. After gaining safety he discovered the Italian to be dead. Ten years later, Hemingway, better known as Papa wrote of his knowledge of war in Farewell to Arms. In that book he denounced war and 'tried to Prove the stupidity of it. He said there was nada in war: nothing. Everything is destroyedg the gentle, the brave, the intelligent and the strong. There is no mercy in war. There is no gain. There is 'tNada . Hemingway hated war but he loved to fight and challenged death to a duel. Hemingway made his lite a bull ring. He was the bull and life was the matador. He challenged the matador and charged relentlessly. Again and again he charged. He -charged in his hometown, he charged in Italy in the war, he charged when he wrote books, he charged in Africa. and charged in Spain in the bull ring. He was the bull, never giving up but always charging, charging life and every trial it offered. Sometimes he was beaten but his attitude to this was: Man can be defeated but never destroyed. His belief was characteristic of Hemingway from the beginning to the end. It was seen in him even at the age of twelve. He took up boxing and broke his nose the first. day. He was back in the ring the next day despite fervent. protests from his mother. Like the bull, Hemingway never gave in to death, but fought to win it. It was not a. miserable struggle but a tragic battle. That was Hemingway's trade mark. Indeed his mark could be seen in everything he did. Even death was marked by an explosion and Hemingways blood. He loved red. It was the cape waved in front of the bull. BRIAN IVIAGEE Forty-foufr History is not Bunk 'History is bunk'g A simple enough remark made in the heat of frustration by one man who had been thwarted in a pet project - as many men see their ambitions and ideals go by thc board, the victims of adverse chance or design. Yet this man's plans were different. Henry Fords project was to prevent XVorld Waii' I with a well-ineaning idea which germinated in his 'Peace Shipf However, in doing so, he was attempting to change the pre- scribed course of history. He failed. His failure was inevitable, for history is as closely allied to the fate of mankind as the sea is to the vitality of the earth. NYithout the mother sea, the earth would be a. barren mass of rock floating aimlessly, lifelessly, through infinity, without more than a. featureless void. History is not bunk. It is the background, intangible, yet sentient, to life and the key to its success or downfall. Through the milleniums great civilizations have reared their heads, flourished, and fallen to dust. Un their ruins, others have grown, each one more triumphant, more cultured than its predecessor. The new culture did not start from nothing. Always, whether consciously or unconsciously, its leaders modelled it on the customs, the language, the ideas or the ideals of one that had gone before. In short, they based their civilization on what was to them, history. The Greek ideal was universal freedom to enquire and experiment. In the Europe of the middle ages, the Church fathered this fundamenta.l freedom. As a result, the Renaissance, that phoenix of European civilization rising from the ashes of the Dark Ages, was purely an expression of the Greek ideal. Subsequently the basis of modern science is the findings of Leonardo, Galileo and Copernicus, and the labours of Greek-inspired painters and sculptors, Michelangelo, Titan and Leonardo again, have produced the worlds most treasured art. The modern western civilization itself is based on past history-it is inspired by many long- dead worlds. Roman law is its law. The Greek democracy is western democracy. Even its numeral system is based on the Arabic, established many centuries before Christ. The march of history through the ages is the foundation of civilizations. This advance is also the story of progress. As a whole, history is a 'graph of rising and falling states', nations and cultures tdisappearing as on seine gigantic film' tDurantJ. Yet there are certain peaks in the human past which, once gained, were never lost. These indelible advances are what had made history. Speech, for example was not a gift from the gods, but the first slow painstaking achievement in the process of human progress. YVithout it, history would have halted before it had truly begun and reason 'would have stayed where we find it in the brute'. Through like syntheses, the ages have seen man toil painfully from ledge to ledge, plateau to plateau, on the mountain at the summit of which lies human perfection. He discovered fire, a protection against his natural foe, climate. He conquered the beasts, thereby carrying off the spoils from his battle with annihilation by the tooth and claw. He became a social animal, acquired morals, science and tools, all of which lifted him Forty-five from the level of brutality to that of civilization. He has inherited the mental and cultural heritage of the past through education. And education has become the means by which he can pass on to descending generations the ga.thered experience and knowledge of himself and his ancestors. The invention of printing and writing has enabled him to record the past for posterity. The history text, so commonly accepted and maligned, can be one of the greatest books in the modern world. A civilization is not a material thing 'tied down to the earth like a serf' fDurantJ, but is an accumulation of knowledge and cultural advances. The essential genius of man has made the future of civiliza- tion secure through such great books as the Bible, the classics, dictiona.ries. What exactly is the ultimate end of civilization and progress? The summit of the mountain is future history - the realm of the philosopher. Whether the end will be a holocaust of man-made destruction or the reaching of perfection - the mythical Utopia - only history will tell. A sentence of Napo1eon's, one of the last. he spoke, aptly supports the meaning and value of the past. May my son study history, he said for it is the only true philosophy. History is not bunk . . . it is life itself! BRYAN EATON The 0rchestra and its Instruments The word orchestra is a derivation of the Greek word that meant an open space enclosed and set apart from the chorus between the audience and stage in the great outdoor theatres associated with those times. The development of the orchestra as an individual unit instead of a mere accompanying body was quite slow. Joseph Haydn was the first composer and conductor to employ fully the individual possibilities of each individual instrument, and to divide these instruments into the four groups or choirs of today. Haydn developed a considerable number of instruments although his o1'chestra was still small in comparison to a modern symphony orchestra. The four choirs of the modern orchestra are the strings, the Woodwinds, the brasses and the percussion instruments. The instruments associated with the strings are the violins, the violas, cellos, and double-basses. The flute, piccolo, oboe, English horn, clarinet, bass clarinet, bassoon and contra-bassoon compose the woodwinds. In the brasses are the French horn, trumpet, trombone and the tuba. Among the varied array of percussion instru- ments are the bells, glockenspiel, celest, tympani Ckettle druml, Xylophone, drums, tambourine, triangle, cymbals, and numerous others depending on the effect desired by the conductor. Also included in this section are the harps, pipe organ, and piano. Of all these the strings are most important and form the foundation on which the rest of the orchestra is built. In the great orchestras of today size and arrangements varies. Following is a brief description of several of the most important instruments in the order in which they are presented to the conductor on each page of his score, where the strings, the fundamental instruments are placed a.t the bottom. First. comes the flute which is notable for its grace, agility, and the bird- Forty-six like quality of its higher registers. It is frequently made of steel but is considered a Woodwind instrument. The piiccolo is a small sized flute, a little less than one half the size of the larger instrument. It is one octave higher in pitch tha.n the Written music, and lends brilliance to a performance, as the composer may desire and indicate. The oboe is a. double reed instrument which has a fixed pitch so other instruments tune from it. It is employed for pastoral effects because it has a penetrating and slightly sickening nasal tone. The English horn, contrary to what people feel, has no relation to John Peel, for it is neither horn, nor English, but is in truth an alto oboe. Its voice is appropriate for music of a melancholy nature. The clarinet is a single reed instrument of primary importance in a military band, holding the same position there as the violins do in the orchestra. Mozart was the first composer to recognize its qualities for the orchestra. The bassoon resembles somewhat a bundle of sticks, hence its Italian name fagott. It has two distinct personalities, a mellow and a. jocular. Of the brasses, the trumpet is the instrument which gives a. stirring blast of sound. It is used to play triumphal and march melodies. The French Horn, which is a descendant of the hunting horn, gives a muted or sometimes brassy effect. It is one of the most difficult instruments in the orchestral lineup to play. The trombone sometimes spoken of as a. slide trombone. The slide varies the length of the tube and hence the pitch. It is really a big trumpet capable of producing imposing effects. The percussion section includes these instruments which must be stmck to produce a. sound. They are of two classes: those that produce noise and those that produce definite pitch. Now we come to the strings. The violins have been gregarious, Right from the time of Stradivarius, Producing tones both high and deep, From hair of horse on gut of sheep. In all kinds of orchestral weather, They like to string along together. The violin consists of a resonating box with four strings G, D, A, E. Tone is produced by drawing horse hair over them or plucking them with the fingers tpizzicatob. The viola is a. slightly enlarged violin with strings C, G, D, A, the G, D, and A being the same as the violin. ' The Cello is a violin too big to play under the chin. It produces a. much lower pitch than the violin or viola.. The Double Bass is the lowest instrument in the orchestra. It has four strings Just like all other stringed instruments except it stands five and a half feet high. So we finally come to the terminating point ot' our tour through the orchestra. 1 hope you have enjoyed it. Rox FARRO Forty-seven - N. . .K Q. ,. ,A I .

Fifty-one T he Pickering ollege Association E AEE ABLE T0 REPORT A Most' ACTIVE and successful year for the Association under the chairmanship of Brace Foster who was succeeded as President by Duncan Cameron at the Annual Meeting at the College in March of this year. Elected at the same time were Erie Ill. Vealc, as Secretary, Bruce Foster, as Treas- urer, and B. W. Jackson, Malcolm Mc-Gilli1'ray, Ilerbert Miller and Warren Sknse, as members ot' the Executive. During the past year under the able direction of President Foster, the Association held a family picnic for Old Boys at the College in June, a dinner dance in Toronto in January and hockey and basketball games at the school on the evening of the Annual Meeting in March. President Cameron has announced that the June picnic will be continued as an annual feature of the Associations activities, the dinner dance taking place in the autumn and the Annual Meeting as usual at the College in March together with the hockey and basketball games with the school teams. He further reported the setting up of a Development Committee under the Chairmanship of the Head- master and including Allen Rogers, Duncan Cameron, Elric Vcale, Bruce Foster, Warren Slfusc and Russell Disney, whose function will be to make recommendations to the College Board regarding a building programme and improvement of the school's present facilities. At the first meeting of the new Executive Barney J aekson was appointed Editor of the Newsletter, which has done so much to keep members informed during the last two years. Russell Disney was named as Auditor and Bruce Foster as Chairman of the Committee for the fall formal dance. The school is in- deed grateful for the enterprise and interest of the Old Boys at the helm of the Association. F i f ty-two Athletics Senior Football HE SENIOR TEAHI, UNDER THE DIRECTION OF fllr. illeaurd and Larry Bone, enjoyed a successful season again this year. The eoaehes worked the team, composed mainly of newcomers, into good shape for its first game. XVe met Orillia, who were A school champions last year and defeated them 2-1-0. lVe defeated Bayview in our first league game -10-7. After the Bayview game we rolled on to defeat Ridley 26-0 and Trinity 2-1-0. XVI? enjoyed victories over Markham 1-1-7, XVoodbridge 27-7, and King City 27-0. Appleby College defeated us 37-7. This game not only dampened the team's pride but left Seine of the players limping with injuries. These injuries proved costly as Markham High School defeated us 28-19 in our next game. Two losses in a row moved to be enough as the injury-riddled team fought hard to overwhelm Bayview 29-0. Vile met King City to decide the winners of our section, and Pick- ering ehalked up another laurel by defeating King 26-0. The next game against XVoodbridge was unimportant to our position and they went down to defeat 1-1-0. We clobbered Uxbridge High 46-13. On Nov. 9 we met Park Street High School from Orillia for the Georgian Bay Secondary Sehools Association Senior HBH Football Final and Won the Championship with a score of 19-0. Back row: D.

Such is certainly the ease olf the Junior Football squad. Here was a group, many of whom had played very little football before, some of whom didn't know much about the game at the beginning ot the season. By the end of the year not only were all members enjoying themselves immensely, but there had been generated a very real spirit. This spirit was apparent even when put to the ultimate test, the humiliating' defeat. The Junior Team was quite overpowered by Midland C32-OJ and SAC C37-67. There were other defeats in the season, but they were all taken in the stride of the -lunior Team. XVhen they were bcsted, it only gave them additional incentive to try harder the next time. Many laps were put in on Memorial Field, many push-ups were done and many hours of running through plays improved the unit considerably. Bench strength was the greatest handicap which the coaches, Jlr. Bruce Luadgren and lllr. Norm ,llacLca'n, had to contend with. The five Junior victories were all well-earned. The Juniors defeated Orillia 12-6, Grove 32-6, Appleby 2-1, Trinity 27-0, and enjoyed a comeback victory over Stouffville 19-13. They lost two games to Markham, one to St. Andrews, Ridley, Stouffville, and Midland. Teams cannot be successful without good coaching. Zllr. Lunclgren and Mr. .llaeLcan fulfilled this duty very eapahly. All members of the Junior Football team can look back proudly on last season with a sense of accomplishment and a. remembrance of fun and good times. There were many trips during the season last, year. The occasional pessimist felt that it was a. plot to undermine the teams morale, but most looked upon the travelling as an opportunity to see the world . ln any event, all those who played last fall will be anxiously awaiting the beginning ol' the new season this coming' fall.

All those who aspire to great things on the grid-iron have gone to the Junior or Senior level. Hatliered about in clusters is a motley erew ot' would-be football players. The eoaeh must resign himself to the long' and arduous task of teaching l'undameiitals to boys who often do not, know the difference between the Hying taekle and fishing taekle. But slowly there is progress made. The Bantam Team of 1961 was no exeeption. They did generate, out of their struggles to learn how to play properly, terrilie spirit and determination. It is quite understanda.ble that what this year's team laeked was experienee. Many mistakes were made, but everyone learned from those mistakes. Under the leadership of Jlr. Ed If'it llfII'fISfll1, Jlr. John Gern'ga.w, then late in the Season, Jlr. Norm .JlacLmn, the team ended its season with vietories over Hillfield and Orillia. The Junior Football Squad volunteered to help the Bantams in their game agaiirst Hillfield, but the Bantams were full ot fight in that game and didnt need the Juniors as they defeated Hilltield 26-14. The team members would like to thank the three eoaehes who 'l'aitht'ully stayed with the team through tliiek and thin, through bad games and good. Indeed. it would not be surprising ta see many of the Bantam players Wearing Junior uniforms in 1962. Fifty-fi ee Senior Soccer IN-NIM: Tina 1iif:c.'In1NG GAME with Gravenhurst finished off a fine season for the Senior Team. The winning ot this game brought. haek to Pickering the tI.B.S.S.A. Senior B ehampionship for the seeond year in a row. The team had a fine record for the season. They had six wins, three ties, and two losses. Piekering lost its first game against their old rivals, Bradford. This game Was played at Bradford and the team redeemed itself when it re-turned to play the seeond game on its own field. A third game was necessary to decide which team would represent the Southern District of Georgian Bay. Piekering eame through to win this all-important game. in the game with Gravenhurst, the teams played through the regulation time with neither team scoring any goals. NVith only minutes left in first overtime period, Barry ilyoub kicked in the winning goal. This goal ended another sue- eessful soeeer season. There was good participation and interest shown throughout the season. The players eame out every day to the north field and moulded a team. This team had spirit, and the determination to make good. This determination showed in every game that the team played. Without the fine eoaehing ot Mr. E. Redclfop, the team would have had a harder time aeeomplishing what they did. lluclu lfow: Mr. Beer, R. Blaekstoek, J. Watt, -l. Angel, D. Broad, H. Blankestijn, J. Beer, S. Bunge, R.

It takes time to develop the skill of the sport and the defeats early in the season displayed the faet that a great. deal of work still had to be done to ereate a winning team. By sticking to their guns the Junior team finally eame up with a. fine win over Aurora by seoring three goals and keeping Aurora from getting the sphere in the Pickering goal net.. The season proved to he invaluahle experienee, and many of the players who this year played on the Junior Team will be ready to move up to the Senior squad to make names for themselves in the annals of Soeeer. Thanks must go to the coach, Mir. Ileury S'i7H,'III,0'll'.S' for the fine job he did in moulding the team from the very rough materials he was given at the beginning of the year. junior prep soccer senior prep soccer , 7lirT'5lf fI wKd' 1.4191 WHY?

Led by Dare h'eibert's aeeurate side shooting Caveraging 18 points a gamej they piled up a, very impressive reeord of five wins in their first six games. Then all of a sudden their reeord started to show signs of trouble. The flu and mid-season injuries seemed to play a big part in the f.6HII1'S poor showing during the early weeks of the new year. XVithout the able rebounding of Brian Clflflztitfayb Jlarslmll, Henlf Blankestijvz and Joe PfIffPI'SOH their record eould have suffered worse than it did. A lot ot the eredit should fall on the shoulders of the eoaeh Jlr. Rielurrdson, who gave a lot of his time and patience towards the team 's sueeess. As the season elosed off they eame on strong again, winning six out ol the last, seven games. The team should be eomplimented on placing seeond in the G.B.S.S.A. ending up with a reeord of seven wins out of ten games in league play and a total of eleven Wins out of eighteen games all told. lt should be pointed out how well the team worked on their defensive and oliuensive patterns.

LTIIOUGH OUR JUNIOR BASKETBALL team did not win the majority of its games it had the basic drive and spirit which is necessary in any team. Most of the teams we were matched against were more skilled than we were, but our team never became discouraged during the games, even in the final minutes of play when the pressure was grea.t and the chances of winning were slim. Our season began with the defeat of King City by the score of 17-15. Our luck then turned and we had a. long period of losses, losing to the following: Bayview 31-20, Upper Canada College 20-9, Stouffville 39-26, and NVoodbridge 56-14. We then broke our losing streak when we beat St. Andrew's College by the score of 19-17. The final games against Bayview and King City did not improve our record but they did show the tremendous improvement which the season had made in the Junior team. Cf course much credit should be given to our coach, Mr. Llimdgreozf, who kept the team fighting and gave us needed advice in time of need. All in all, it was a. fine season for the Juniors. - LT11oUGH THE MIDGET BASKETBALL Tnixixi did not have a very good win-loss record there was a lot of spirit and morale was high. Near the end of the season, with the boys' skills improving rapidly the team managed to defeat Ridley College in an exciting, fast moving game. Pickering took an early lead in the first quarter and managed to retain this lead through the game. In this game fine coaching was shown by some of the skilled plays and accurate shooting. This was also shown by the sportsmanship displayed by the members of the team. The team would like to thank the coaches, Mr. Wally McCall and Mr. Henry S?:7llHl.0'Il,S for their fine coaching and leadership. Junior Basketball T rack and Field HE TRACK AND FIELD SEASON was off to an early start this year. Because of the short spring term, practices began in the gymnasium even before the grounds had dried sufficiently for outdoor work. Once back from the spring break, tra.ining began in earnest and a fine turnout helped get the team oft' to an enthusiastic start. The first few days were hard on practically everyone, yet the complaints of short wind, sore muscles and tiredness soon became a thing of the past. After general conditioning the members of the team broke off into smaller groups to train for the events of their own choice. The able coaching provided by members of the staff soon helped to bring out the skills and abilities of the various members of the track team. Soon, everyone was looking forward to the first track meet of the season. DUAL MEETS The first track meet of the season was a. dual meet against Richmond Hill. Though the Riclnnond Hill team bested us 148-107, we had cause to be proutl of our performance. Pickering placed first. in nine of the twenty-four events: Herrera covered the Junior Hurdles in 17.3 secs.g Verde broke the Intermediate Hurdles Dual Meet Record with a time of 15.9 secs.g Broad lifted himself to a new record of 5' 5M3 in the Intermediate High Jumpg Smith won the Intermediate 100 in 11.0 sees.g Eaton followed up in the Senior 100 with a winning time of 10.7 secs.5 Herrera, placed first for a second time in 'the Intermediate 220 in 24.7 secs.g Eaton came through again in the Senior 220 in 23.0 sees.g Broad placed first in the Intermediate Hop, Step and Jump with a distance of 38' 2 g finally, the P. C. Relay team won the Senior -140 in 48.6 secs. In the dual meet with Thornhill one week later, a, very strong Thornhill team forced Pickering into second place in most of the events. However, Brood bettered his week-old high jump mark by lifting over the bar at 5' tim in the Intermediate High Jump. Ron Veale paced himself well to win the Intermediate -140 in 56.5 seconds. Eaton again won in the Senior 220 as he had the week before but he was slightly off his previous time, clocking 2-1.3 seconds. The final score of the Pickering-Thornhill dual meet was 133 to 79 in Thornhill's favour. With such a short season, no further dual meets were scheduled. The track team instead tumed its attention to the preparations for the G.B.S.S.A. meet held on our Memorial Field on May 19th. and the week long preliminaries which culminated in Sports Day on May 26th. A special word of thanks is due to the Director of Athletics, Jlr. .llvmn-fl, and the track coaches which assisted him: Nr. Lrunrlgren, Mr. IIIHFLCIIII, Nr. Riel:- ardson, and Mr. ZlIcLarcn. Sixty-tllree ualeer Relays Hr: ANNUAL QUAKER RELA rs were held on Saturday, May 12th under tremendous weather conditions. The sole drawback was the prolonged period of hot, dry weather which prior to the day of the meet had drawn most of the moisture out of the track. As a. result, the surface was somewhat loose and starting blocks would not hold too securely, so very few records were broken. There were sixteen races with a. full complement of four teams competing in each race. A total of fifty-five schools from all over central and southern Ontario took part in this Pickering-sponsored meet. A Pickering team competed in the final race of the day, the fl. R. Blaclrstock Junior Hurdle Relay. Unfortunately the Pickering team was disqualified in the race. But Pickering hopes to regain its Vlglltflll position as a record holder in the Quaker Relays of' 1963. The largest track meet of the season in which Pickering participated this year was held on our own Memorial Field on Saturday, May 19th. The thirty schools off the Georgian Bay Secondary Schools Association sent their athletes to vie for top honours in track and field. Top scorer for the Day was Thornhill whose squad piled up a total of 78 points. Pickering stood eighth in the field of thirty and was only five points away from a fifth position - a very commendable showing by our track and field team. Those who did an outstanding job in establishing Pickering's position in the meet were the following: Eaton, f2ndl and Zllorrisoa C3rdQ in the Senior High Jumpg Broad C2ndJ in the Intermediate Broad -Iump establishing a new Pickering record of 39' 9 g Vcalc f3rdj in the Intermediate 4-105 Broad C2ndj in the Intermediate High Jump establishing a new Pickering record of 5' 7 5 Broad Q3rdj in the Intermediate Broad -Iumpg Eaton who won his heat in the Senior 100 and placed 2nd in the finalg Eaton. and Rayner who won their heats in the Senior 220, with Eaton placing second in the finalg and the Pickering relay team Cliichardsofn, Rayner, Edwards, Eafonj placed fourth. A total of nineteen new records were set in the 1962 G.B.S.S.A. meet. After beginning at ten oicllock in the morning the whole meet was finally wrapped up at about six 0-'clock The Pickering track team turned its at- tention to prcpa.rations for Sports Day.
