PRAYER IN USE IN THE CHAPEL FOR OLD BOYS ON ACTIVE SERVICE 0 Almighty Godg who art wiser than the children of men and overrulest all things to their good, hold, we beseech Thee, in Thy keeping all who have gone forth to battle from this School: watch over those that are missing: comfort and protect those in the hands of the enemy. Be with them in the hour of danger, strengthen them in the hour of weakness, sustain and comtort them in the hour of sickness or of death. Grant that they may be true to their calling and true allways to Thee, and make both them and us to be strong to do our duty in Thy service, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

EDITORIALS The School extends its very deepest sympathy to the families of our Old Boys whose deaths are recorded in this issue, especially those whose lives have been cut short on Active Service, or by accident. They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. T.C.S. is justly proud of the Old Boys who have given themselves to the Cause of Democracy. Approximately two hundred of them are now on Active Service in one or other of the Forces, and this num- ber is steadily increasing. Their ranks range from Mid- shipman to Rear-Admiral, from buck private to Brigadier, and from Aircraftsman to Group Captain. Already the first names have been entered on our Roll of Honour for this War. Two of our Old Boys have given their lives for their Country-Hugh Lockhart Gor- don, who was killed when his flying boat dived into the Pacific Ocean, and George Henry Kirkpatrick Strathy, a Sub-Lieutenant on H.M.S. Ajax, who was killed in action in the Mediterranean Sea. Three of our Old Boys have been decorated for con- 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD spicious bravery, B. D. Russel, who was awarded the Dis- tinguished Flying Cross, for destroying five enemy air- craft, and assisting in the destruction of a sixth, L. R. Mc- Lernon, who received the Distinguished Service Cross for his part played at Dunkirkg and just now we have heard that H. F. G. Ede was awarded the D.F.C. for gallantry in the air during the attack on Narvik. Few schools, at this stage of the War, can say that three of their members have won such honours. We are proud of you, Old Boys, and pray that we, the boys now at your old School, may follow in your heroic footsteps. x We want to take this opportunity to Welcome the seventy-six new boys who entered the School this year. Yes,-seventy-six--a record never before equalled in our 75 years history. A dozen of these boys in the S. S. have come from war-torn England. Ten in the Junior School have come from the other side of the Atlantic. It is difficult for these boys to accustom themselves to this strange country. The everyday trivialities and events, which to us are monotonous, to them are things new and different. They have been torn away from their friends, from their very country, to be flung into the midst of us Canadians. Are they down-hearted? No!-a thousand times no! They have adapted themselves to this foreign environ- ment with the utmost of pluck and enthusiasm. Quietly and unobtrusively they find out our way of life-and they fit in. Sometimes you may catch one of them in a fog. What are they thinking about? The chances are it's Home -three thousand miles away. Not once do we hear a protesting murmur. We admire their courage: they are showing themselves to be made of the right stuff. To this we say: Keep it up, and good luck! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 A. ' HAPIZL Em i . OTES On Sunday, September 15th., the Headmaster spoke in Chapel. 1.l. On Sunday, September 29th, St. Michael's Day, the Chaplain spoke in Chapel. He took as his text from the Revelation of St. John the Divine, Chapter 12, verses 7 to 9: And there was War in Heaveng Michael and his angels fought against the Dragon, and the Dragon fought against his angels, and prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in Heaven. And the great Dragon was cast out, that old Serpent, called the Devil, and Satan which deceiveth the Whole world, he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. On Sunday, October 6th, Mr. Scott preached in Chapel. He took as his text Proverbs 29:18, Where there is no vision, the people perish. He reminded us that, at the beginning of a school year all boys, new and old, make up their minds to do well in everything. They have set themselves a mark. Some had it put before them, some realized this themselves. A vision or mark is a necessity, if one is to live by the ideals of decent living and honest thinking, and without God there is no vision. What we build ourselves now, we must take out into the World. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Sunday, October 13th., the Chaplain preached the sermon, taking his text from Psalm 92:1- It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord . He pointed out that we have a great deal for which to thank God, even in this time of war, Worry, anxiety, and, for many, bereave- ment. He said we should give thanks to Him for all the blessings of this life, but above all for His inestimable love in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ. Also we should be thankful for Britain, for the fact that we are fighting for the right in this struggle, and for the unseliish spirit of everyone in this war, which spirit is one of the qualities of Christ Himself. IN MEMORIAM The Most Rev. J. F. Sweeny, M.A., D.D., late Arch- bishop of Toronto and Metropolitan of Ontario, died in Toronto on Wednesday, September 18th., having been an invalid for some years. Archbishop Sweeny Was born in London, England, in 1857. the son of Col. J. F. Sweeny and Anna Maria Field- ing. He came to Canada early in life and was educated in the Montreal High School, the McGill Normal School and McGill University, securing his B.A. in 1876, his M.A. in 1881. In 1883 he was granted his M.A. Cad eundumi by Trinity University and in 1888 he took his D.D. in course. Ordained deacon in 1880, priest in 1881, he was ap- pointed rector of St. Philip's, Toronto. While still rector of St. Philip's in 1909 he was elected Bishop of Toronto. On the death of Archbishop William of Huron, he was elected Metropolitan of Ontario in 1932, but was forced to resign on ac-count of poor health within a few months. The Archbishop was a frequent visitor-to this School, and regularly. from his Consecration in 1909 until his re- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 tirement in 1932, he came to us on the eve of Palm Sunday to administer the rite of Conirmation. Archbishop Sweeny gave a prize for Religious Knowl- edge for many years and always kept up his interest in the School. I. K. P.

Oflicial receipt for this re- mittance will be found attached. We are very proud of the hospital at Taplow iClive- denj not only because of the excellence of its structure and equipment which are planned with a View to cutting down the danger to patients from air raids, but because of the research laboratory associated with it. It is the first time, that we know of, that a research laboratory has been associated with a military hospital. Will you please convey to the Trinity College School the sincere appreciation of the Red Cross for their interest in our work and the help in providing hospital facilities for our soldiers overseas. Yours sincerely, W. S. Caldwell, M.D., Assistant Director. Red Cross Campaign The Red Cross Campaign in the School in October resulted in the raising of 324514.

The score may be overlooked, the writer being a Bethune. Orchestral Music Mr. Frank Blachford, the Senior member of the violin faculty of the Toronto Conservatory of Music is visiting the School once a week to give violin lessons and lessons on other stringed instruments. He is also organizing an orchestra. At present we have four violins, a double bass, a tirnpani, a clarinet, and pianos. More instruments are badly needed. If anyone could give or lend a flute or other instruments they would be most gratefully received. Captain C. C. Dixon's Lecture Captain C. C. Dixon related to the School some of his interesting and adventurous experiences, on Saturday even- ing, Sept. 29th. He illustrated his lecture with lantern slides, which included pictures of a number of different types of sailing ships, and all were extremely interesting. He afterwards kindly answered any questions, and re- lated still further incidents. This is the second time Captain Dixon has visited the School, as he previously talked here in 1936.

Q TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 CHANGES IN THE GOVERNING BODY At the annual meeting of the Governing Body on Oct. 16th, Mr. Clarence Bogert C78-'81J and Mr. A. A. Harcourt Vernon C09-'13J tendered their resignations. Mr. Bogert has been a member of the Governing Body for twenty years and during that time he has maintained a deep and thoughtful interest in all the affairs of the School. Often he has visited Port Hope, and nearly always one noticed him at School games in Toronto. Mr. Bogert now feels that he would like to be relieved of some of his responsi- bilities. His counsel and advice will be missed at meet- ings but we know We can count on his continued kindly interest in all School acairs. Mr. A. A. Harcourt Vernon has been an indefatigable worker for the School ever since he was Head Prefect in 1912-1913. It was he who built up the Old Boys' Associa- tion and with his father did the tremendous work neces- sary in order to compile the first Old Boys' Directory. After the fire he threw himself into the campaign for a new School and did invaluable Work. He has been a mem- ber of the Governing Body for some fifteen years and with- draws now as he is on Active Service with the Air Force. We shall hope that his absence from the Board will be a temporary and very short one. Mr. R. C. H. Cassels C89-'93l who has been such a tower of strength on the Governing Body for many years has withdrawn as a representative of the Old Boys' As- sociation, but has been elected to the place vacated by Mr. Bogert. The School extends its congratulations and a most sincere Welcome to Mr. Greville Hampson, Mr. Argue Mar- tin, K.C., and Mr. Charles Burns who have been elected members of the Governing Body. Mr. Hampson C94-'97l of Montreal and Mr. Argue Martin C14-'17J of Hamilton are taking the places of Mr. R. C. H. Cassels and Mr. N. H. Macaulay, respectively, as representatives of the Old 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Boys'g Mr. Charles Burns C21-'25J of Toronto is taking the place of Mr. A. A. H. Vernon, now on Active Service with the Air Force. The three new members of the Board have had distinguished careers in business and in law and the School considers itself fortunate to be able to have the benefit of their counsel and generous interest. GIFTS T0 THE SCHOOL C. E. Duggan C92-'98J brought one of the old cricket bats with him on June lst and very kindly gave it to the School. R. P. Jellett C92-'97J and Mrs. Draper have given some most interesting books to the Library for which We are deeply grateful. J. W. C. Langmuir C35-'4OJ has given a line challenge trophy with a replica of it to the boy in his second year who best fulfills the conditions of award. These are listed elsewhere. Mrs. Monro, Mrs. Hare and Mrs. Britton have given School blazers, suits, and football equipment, which have been put to exceedingly good use. Mrs. Percy Henderson brought three prize books to the School which were won by the late O. G. Darling C05- '10J. The Ladies' Guild have this year most generously given two valuable bursaries which are used to enable boys to attend the School. The School is particularly inbeted to Mrs. John Moss for giving the Library a copy of the beautifully prepared volume of Pat Moss's letters. For those who knew Pat, nothing is needed to keep their memory of him vivid and greeng it is, however, a real privilege to be able to read his letters and to know his thoughts, and for this we are most grateful. Pat was at the School from 1924-1931 and after a brilliant career here he went to Marlborough College in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 England, and later to Oxford. In his third year at Christ Church, he was tragically killed. Lt.-Col. Harold Hartney, U.S. Air Corps Reserve, has very kindly sent the School an inscribed and autographed copy of his thrilling book entitled Up and At 'Em, in which he gives the first complete story of the exploits of the First Pursuit Group of the United States Air Service in the first World War. Col. Hartney is a Canadian by birth and was the Commander of the First Pursuit Group which numbered among its members such Well-known fliers as Eddie Rickenbacker and Quentin Roosevelt. H. A. Richardson C86-'88l who was here with his Wife on June lst, has generously arranged for copies of Bishop Renison's notable tribute to the School to be sent to all members of the Old Boys' Association. R. T. Morris 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REGORD ONE OF A NOBLE CREW An editorial from the Globe and Mail, Toronto, Oct. 18th., 1940. Canada has had reason to feel proud of the young men from this Dominion who have distinguished them- selves in the air. Canadian squadrons, fighting as such, have fully maintained the magnificent standard set by the Royal Air Force, and young Canadians have done their share in making the Royal Air Force itself the Wonder of the World. The brilliant naval action in the Mediterranean is of special interest to this city because Sub-Lieutenant G. H. K. Strathy of Toronto took part in the action While serving on the Ajax. A young man of exceptional promise and great ability, Sub-Lieutenant Strathy was by aptitude and training the type of man who has made the Royal Navy feared and respected. He gave his life in the course of an action which Will fill another memorable page in British naval history. His family has contributed three sons to the armed forces. Toronto shares their pride in the part which Sub- Lieutenant Strathy played on so notable an occasion and their grief over his loss. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 ,F S7 , fu, Aff- XV, , . , ,ll . I - 1? I I 6 fx-,I O11 Q 2 BAD BOY MAKES GOOD In a brief cable to one of the heroic members of Ernie McNab's Royal Canadian Air Force fighter squadron, stationed somewhere in England, a proud father recently wrote, Bad Boy Makes Good and thereby blew the lid off a wide field of discussion, and probably set the Head- master's eyes to twinkling. The discussion surrounds that age-worn question mark -athlete or scholar?-that has set many a school boy to dreaming, many an anxious father to worrying, and many a Master to arguing pro and con over the morning cocoa in the common room. And still the question is unanswered -although the hero worshipping J.S. with its collective eyes glued to the skies might think the question was answered by the objective of that brief but heartfelt cable. To many an Old Boy, who worried more about the future of the first rugby team than the future of a Latin examination, the exploits of this youthful member of the R.C.A.F. meant a silent chuckle of glee. To many a housemaster, with hair prematurely grey- ed by the pranks and antics of a spirited athlete, the ex- ploits of this former Bethunite must have wrought a silent admission that the grey hairs were worth it. To a hard-boiled drill sergeant, accustomed to making sure that those half-holiday detention squads actually felt 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the sixteen quarters, there must have been a warming of the heart to realize there was no squelching of the ani- mated spirit so much in need to-day. And to a worried headmaster, experienced in dealing with schoolboy defaulters, a hidden, joyful smile and prayerful thanks that the spirit of this youth kept alive long after he had made his last walk down the road lead- ing from the School on the hill. And in that cablegrazn the proud father did not make amends for any great crime. Being spirited and full of vigour and vitality-the sort of Vitality that made good old Speech's hair curl-can hardly be labelled a crime. Merely the rebellious spirit of high-strung youth. The same spirit that dashed through the Ridley line for yards. The same spirit that flipped the puck behind the goal- keeper at U.C.C., and the same spirit that broke the bowl- er's heart at St. Andrew's. All types of people make a World. And although perhaps Dal Russel was no Rhodes Scholar, he has al- ready made a mark in this topsy turvy World that will be remembered equally as long as the names of the Chan- cel1or's Prize Men remain engraved in the oak panels of the old dining hall. For it was Dal Russel C26-'34J who received that cablegram one October day. It was Dal Russel who brought great honour to Trinity College School when he was award- ed the Distinguished Flying Cross for the daring and skill with which he is helping beat back the German air attacks on Britain .

Our first do yesterday . . . and quite the greatest thrill of this life. We are they who were mentioned on the news as operating with the crack Polack Squadron and dealing with sundry enemy. I should imagine the sights we see would put even H. G. Wells to shame . . . even at his most fantastic. How- ever everything seems to be on our side . . . except numbers . . . but even with that slight disadvantage it's easier to have more enemy than yourselves to get in the way. I got one of the two probables that were mentioned. Life is good . . . it's fun to be defending the heart of the Empire at 20,000 feet and more, though even we can't prevent bombs dropping. Extracts from Letters Written by Sub-Lieutenant Geoffrey Scott, R.C.N.V.R. One day at Hove, eight of our class of 25 Canadians were asked to volunteer for a special job involving demoli- tion work in Fra.nce. It was to be a special draft, and we were to return to the King Alfred a few days later, supposedly. But it turned out that we went to France and had to wait nearly three weeks before we blew up our objectives and came back to England. Two of the eight who were chosen were put in other parties, and six of us remained together and went to the same French port. At present I don't suppose that I am allowed to tell you what port it was, although I'm sure it wouldn't make any differ- ence, but later on I'll tell you all about it. Having arrived there, we found that there was no- thing for us to do just yet, so we simply settled down in 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD a building where many army men were stationed, and tried to find things for the ratings to do. Our Commander was a great organizer fyou apparently have to be in the Navyi and he soon got things going. We had soccer games for the most part, and a bit of field hockey. Every night at exactly the same time the German bombers would come over and start dropping things and I must say it wasn't always too pleasant. The only thing that really frightens you is the bomb whistling on its way down. That really makes your stomach disappear. The noise of the A.A. gunfire was deafening at times, and it was an amazing sight to see all the different kinds of tracer bullets shoot- ing up into the sky. Our party was very lucky and not a man was touch- ed. Once or twice our sentries had very close shaves when bombs dropped close by, but the sand bags around them saved them from splinters and shrapnel. My scanty knowledge of the French language came in very handy, and Commander Chatwin often used Les McLernon and myself for any little jobs in connection with the French. I had the privilege of having a quiet chat and a cup of coffee with a French Admiral, which was a good experience to have had, and I also was aboard a French destroyer and shown arotmd. However, in spite of certain compensations, we were all very glad to get away from the place on Monday after- noon fJune 10thi because there was nothing to do but wait. and we had very unfavourable circumstances under which we had to organize a daily routine and give the men something to do. Fortunately the Commander realized just how green we were, and made things comparatively easy for us. I haven't told you yet that Le Havre was the port we visited in France. I thought perhaps they wouldn't ap- preciate my mentioning it before. It was 'an interesting place to be living in for two and a half weeks, because TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD 19 for one thing it's the second largest port in France lpar- don me-Germanyl. But there was nothing to do but to sit tight until the enemy were nearby and then blow up everything which might be useful. The demolition was great sport and we had the satisfaction of blowing up the Normandie's drydock, but I didn't always appreciate our nightly air-raids. Sometimes I took a very poor view of them. Once I was able to get hold of an army truck, however and drove to Rouen and saw the Cathedral there, and the place Where Joan of Arc was burned. Extracts from a Letter Written by Sub-Lieutenant G. H. K. Strathy, R.C.N.V.R. lReceived by the Headmaster in Augustl Dear Mr. Ketchum: Thank you very much for your kind letter thanking me for my cable, which I was glad to hear arrived in time for the celebrations. Yesterday I received my copy of the June issue of the Record, in which I was very interested by the full report of the Reunion. I also see that you have my name down on the active service list, although you have me as a member of the Royal Navy. Although I am serving with the Royal Navy, I am actually a member of the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve. if fl: Ik if :Ks ' If my cable arrived at Port Hope in exactly the same form as it is published in the Record, they must have cut out Royal Naval Barracks, Portsmouth , which was in the text of the message, for some unknown reason. I forget the exact wording of my cable, but it contained some re- ference to the Old Boys branch at R.N. Barracks, Ports- mouth . . . and the branch consisted entirely of myself! So the other old boys that joined me in the cable Cas you thoughtl are non-existent. Ill Q if Q Q 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Unfortunately discretion and the censorship rules for- bid my telling you anything about my life since I joined the ship, except that I am enjoying myself very much and doing a great deal of work, which makes it very difficult for me to catch up on my correspondence. That is Why I took so long to answer your letter. We are all very anxious to have a good poke at the Fuehrer just as soon as he gives us a chance. All the offcers on the ship are very friendly, although of course somewhat reserved in the good old English tradition. I was pleasantly surprised to find another Canadian when I arrived on board-a midship- man by the name of Beard, who comes from Victoria, B.C. However he unfortunately met with a slight accident a few days ago fnothing to do with the perils of war-it could have happened as easily in peace timel and is hors de combat for the present, and has left the ship, I am afraid permanently. So I have been left to hold the Canadian fort all by myself. Morale is exceedingly high over here, and nobody con- siders for an instant that it is even remotely possible that England will lose the war. There was a certain amount of depression visible for a couple of days after France threw up the sponge fprobably nothing to what prevailed in Canada, from the tone of some letters that I have re- ceivedl. However that vanished in about two days, and everybody's quite happy about the whole thing now. Of course nobody thinks the war will be over to-morrow . . . but in the long run we all know what's going to happen. if: 2212 1111 511 2? P.S.

Extracts from a Letter Written by Flying Officer B. D. Russel, D.F.C. September 28th., 1940. I got two more Huns yesterday, and shared anotherg I also shared one with a lad from our Squadron the day before. It was a lone Dornier and two of us were sent up to search for it. There was a heavy layer of cloud at about 9000 feet and we were told that he was flying about 12 miles north of Southampton, at 15,000 feet. We climbed up through the cloud layer to about 16,500 feet, Where We could see his outline against the tops of the clouds. I spotted him about 12 miles West of us and told my leader Where he was. Fortunately the Jerry did not see us as We Were above him and he seemed to be searching for something. In his Search he turned and headed straight for us, so that We were able to do a perfect head-on attack. I was too close to my leader, and got hit by his spent cartridge- cases, which put holes thru' my wings and one thru' the Wind screen, so I was unable to make a successful attack. However, I turned quickly as he Went beneath me and chased him from astern, closing in to 100 to 75 yards, when I gave him all the ammunition I had, this put his right engine out of control and sent him down in a steep spiral through the clouds. He tried to head for home but crash- ed into the sea not far from the coast. It was considered 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD a very good show, as it was the first ---- lout out by Censorl. I am sending you a Clipping from the Times. We landed to find my pal Air Marshal Bishop here. The next day the King paid us a visit. He is looking wonderfully well. We all shook hands with him and said a few Words. He is Certainly a wonderful man.

P. wins TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 OUT FROM ENGLAND IMPRESSIONS RECORDED BY ENGLISH BOYS I I left England on May 30th, and I must say I did so with mixed feelings. Most emphatically I did not Want to go, for I was enjoying myself at Oundle, but all the same I thought it might be interesting. We had had no air- raids at school as yet, and it was only the untimely capitu- lation of Belgium that finally decided us to leave. None of us really wanted to go: we had a house, boats and many good friends, but we did live on the East Coast, quite near London, and very near a large garrison town, which has been raided several times. I have heard that a consider- able number of bombs have fallen fairly near the house, but no damage was done, and so we hope it is still stand- mg. However we came, and now must make the most of our opportunities. The trip over was good, but very long. We carried a good amount of gold on board and so were escorted for the entire trip. It would have been more pleasant if we had not had the gold, even though we should not have been escorted. We could have gone much faster and should not have felt as if we were sitting on top of a mine. We arrived in Montreal after twelve days on board, and came by train to London, Ontario, where there was quite a reception. During the summer we have seen quite a variety of country, since we did a great deal of motor- ing, and my brother and I spent a month at a camp near Lindsay. I have never enjoyed a month in the summer more, and I must say I wish there were similar camps in England. I would rather live in England, under pre-war condi- tions, than anywhere else in the world. I like the country better than this country, and the two peoples about equally 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD well. I think perhaps if my home was in this country, and I had lived here all my life, that my feelings might be reversed, but as I feel at the moment, give me England. In this country there is not so much class distinction as monetary distinction, which I think is a bad thing, but as the pioneer state of life is not far away in any compara- tively: new country, it is not surprising. As to the difference in schools. Take the school I attended in England--Oundle-and T. C. S. I was at Oundle for three years, and should in all probability have been a house prefect this year, so naturally I am sorry I left at this point. However it seems to me that the gen- eral attitude of boys in this country is much more friend- ly towards newcomers than it is in England. I noticed this particularly at camp where we were immediately ab- sorbed into the activity without any preamble. Another example, take sports in the two schools. At Oundle, a new boy might be good enough to be in the first team for rugger, but he would not be played until he had been at the school a year. It was one of many old customs which ruled the school, and there are similar ones at all public schools. Here I see several new boys playing on Bigside with seniors, straight off the bat. Another difference is the amount of freedom. Here there is more free time, there are less rigid regulations with regard to clothing, etc., than at any British school. At Oundle we were only allowed to see parents or friends twice a term, and there were no long week-ends. I like the general atmosphere here more than I did at Oundle when I first went there. However, as I went up the school, I enjoyed it more and more, naturally I still feel I would rather be there than here. From what I have seen of this School, and from what I know of other British Public Schools, I think, if I had not been able to go to 0undle, that I would rather be here than at some other school in England. -P.D.I-I. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 II Here I am, an English boy, going to school in Canada, all because of one maniac, Hitler. But that doesn't worry me, for I am being treated very well as a guest of Canada. My Public School in England was Repton, where they film- ed Goodbye, Mr. Chips . From here have come well- known men, such as C. B. Fry, Bunny Austin, B. H. Valen- tine, all great sportsmen of the past and present. I had been there two years, and had just completed my course of fagging, when to my horror I found that the system also thrives on this side of the Atlantic. Is fagging a good thing? That was the question put before the house in a debate just before I left, and of course the majority said, Yes . I still agree. Now for the story of our journey. We sailed from Glasgow on the Monarch of Bermuda , at the beginning of July. We were then only escorted by two destroyers and an aeroplane, but to our delight when we were ap- proaching Ireland, we were met by a battle-squadron, which consisted of a battleship, a cruiser, and seven de- stroyers. Our ship was not in the best of condition, as she had only just returned from Spain, with Sir Percy Loraine, and had also had two doses of fighting at Narvik. She is a wonderful luxury liner in peace-time, but as she was frequently used as a troop-ship, all the good furniture was boarded up to protect it. Why we had such close escort was because we had 511,000,000 of gold on board, and also the Dutch Crown jewels. We had two other ships in the escort, one with Nazi prisoners on board and the other with Polish refugee women. We had three guns mounted in the stern, two A.A. guns and one anti-submarine gun. There were many children on board, and it was not hard to realize it when they woke us up every morning at 5 a.m. by bursting into our cabins. The voyage on the whole was great fun, as we saw two submarines and also picked up some survivors of the 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Arandora Star , a big liner which had been torpedoed a few days before. For two days running we had gun practice with the battleship Revenge. She fired a star shell which hung in the air and our A.A. gunners fired at it. And this re- minds me of a story which an officer on board told me. There was a Canadian sailor on board, off the destroyer Fraser, and he once had three stripes, but lost them be- cause he drank too much! So when the ship went to Narvik he was promised that he could retrieve them if he brought down a Heinkel. One afternoon when they were just steam- ing along, he suddenly saw a speck in the sky, and imme- diately all the gunners sprang to their posts. The gun was loaded, and Johnson, the sailor, was beginning to see visions of his stripes again. But to his dismay a senior gunner spoke up and said, It seems very strange, John- son, but that bl .... Heinkel is flapping its wings! At last, at the end of eight days, we pulled in to Hali- fax, after quite an exciting journey. Here we managed to get to the front of the queue at the Customs, but it didn't pay. No sooner had all our passports been examined and stamped, than we were led into the dock-side jail! This worried us very much, but after much fussing and agitating we made the oilicials realize that there was a mistake somewhere. 'They only had to look at our passports, to see that the lirst officers had stamped them in the wrong place. So we were liber- ated, having tried a Canadian detention prison. After that we got through to Montreal without any bother, and the first thing that struck me while looking out of the train window, was the vast expanse of open country upon which no houses had been built. Also, wherever we stopped, heaps of people greeted us and gave us candies, and magazines, and this I considered was very nice indeed of the Canadians. I am most awfully glad that I have been able to come to T.C.S. I think it is the best School I could have come TRINITY COLLEGE sCHOOL RECORD 27 to, the Work and games and many other things are like England in a way, .... and that, of course, is a great help to us. I hope my opinion of rugby will improve, thoughg at the moment, all the teams seem to do is to huddle round to keep Warm, and shout a lot of numbers. But I suppose you would' say the same kind of thing about English rugby! I am enjoying very much being a guest of this coun- try. -K.A.C.S. V I i D. W.

Supper went along without interruption, as the light was just be- ginning to fade, but by the time Chapel came around the School had no light whatsoever. Somehow or other Hash- lights began to appear, in fact before the night was out nearly everyone in the School had one. Of course Coh, absolutelyll it was impossible to study, so the Prefects got together an impromptu programme, which was staged in the Hall, after half an hour's pre- paration. It lasted two hours. The proceedings began with A1len's exhibition of contortions, which were very well done. A violin-piano team, composed of Tracy, Berry and Culver drew much applause and many encores. The old reliable Barbershop Quartet, reared its ugly head,- Kovacs, Svcnningson, Hope and Waters being the fdoubt- full serenaders. These gave out with such sweet, lilting airs as Therc's a Tavern in the Town, and other master- pieces. Stanger and Searle gave a demonstration of rope tricks and face-blackening, or, the hypnotism of Haas. Hull, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 Sawley and Crum gave a mouth-organ recital which also drew much applause. Love and Brown sang the Man on the Flying Trapeze. Then came America's Number One Band, with Can- ada's Swing of King: those World-Famous Exponents of Jive, Fletcher Duggan and his band. CYouzir, youzir, hot and cold, etc., etc.J-And whata group of head-line! What a line-up! Ziggy Somerville, hot trumpet, formerly with Dommy Torsey-now with Fletcher Duggan, Benny German, lic- orice stick, formerly a leader of his own band-now with Fletcher Duggan, Buddy Birks, rhythm C?J section, former- ly with D. Torsey, now with Fletcher Duggan, Gene Draper, also the noise section, King of the Saucepan, now with Fletcher Duggan, J. C. Fleming, slip-horn, now with Fletcher Duggan. These men, everyone on top of the pile in his own field, made the Hall echo with that certain Swingcopation as only they can do it. CThat's no 1ie!J Well, anyway, a fine time was had by all, and we hope the power will be good to us again, soon!

Woodward. 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD . . . . .BUT NOT A DROP T0 DRINK The sun beat down unmercifully as he pulled himself nearer to his salvation. With that agony of thirst on his sweaty countenance he stumbled forward ..... His matted hair fell over his forehead in tangled locks. His clothes were saturated with salty perspiration. His breath came and went in agonizing gulps. With a groan he sank to his knees. A despairing appeal to the torrid sun dimly iiickered in his glassy eyes. Slowly he lifted himself on to one leg, then straighten- ed up on the other . . . Again he staggered ahead . . . The blinding sweat filled his blood-shot eyes. He brushed his face with a damp arm. The heat waves, simmering up from the baked ground, made his head reel . . . With a guttural choke, he fell on one knee, then flopped down, exhausted ..... 9? if IB 1 IK A wry smile spread over his lips as Dick Birks splash- ed his face with the sponge from the Bigside water-bucket. -C.I.P.T. G. H. Curtis TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 BRIEF BIOGRAPHIES LANGMUIR, J. W.- Woozy came to us 'way back in '35, leaving us last year as the No. 1 boy in the School. He was Head Prefect, and made a most successful job of his onerous duties. A Mighty Man in many ways, he was a stalwart on the First Rugby Team for two years, and one of the less dim lights of that grand and glorious Sixth Form. Of course mention must be made of his stage career . . . a mixture of Casanova, Robert Taylor and Henry Fonda, he was Trinity's gift to Hollywood. As Head Prefect he had a busy year with the 75th Anniversary celebrations, and he deserves much credit for the success of the memorable Weekend. He should feel at home in the R.C.A.F., now that he can really ily, even though Woozy made some pretty successful attempts! Good luck with the Air Force, Wooz! ARMOUR, D. E. P.- Glamour Boy came to us in the fall of '38. His stay was short but he packed just about everything into his two years. In a second, and almost unprecedented year, Dave, besides being a Senior and then a Prefect, got his First Team Rugby colours. In this Team his amazing broken field running won him the nickname swivel-hips. He really didn't appreciate this, or especially the first-mentioned name! Somehow or other his name became linked with Palm- olive Soap fsomething to do with school-girl com- plexion . . . or somethingll In fact in some circles his full name was David Edward I-Use-Palmolive Ponton Armour. No, he didn't go for that! Dave has gone on to R.M.C., hoping eventually to get into the army. We wish him all the luck in the world. I TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD HIGGINBOTHAM, J.-- The Botham came to the Senior School afterabrilliant careerin the J .S., lasting three years, '34-'37. He started right in where he left off in the J. S. amassing an amazing collection of colours. In his final year he captained the First Rugby Squad, made the First Gym. Eight and Second Cricket Team. He was also a Prefect. Higgy was another of those boys enlightened with great ideas. His prize theory was that several subjects in one year were quite un- necessary, so he promptly dropped some. This, he found, worked so well that he decided to drop the lot, but the old order changethf' and he is now at O.A.C. . . . How he got there is just one of those little mysteries. We hear he's having a little trouble with some sort of Freshman rule having something to do with not dating any young lady until Christmas, but of course that rumour must be false. We Wish he was back with us, but O.A.C. claimed him and we ex- tend our best wishes for a good while to come. . MacKENZIE, M. G.- Mac was another of those rugged Westerners, who hailed from Calgary in 1936. Last year he was a Prefect, and played on the First Rugby Team, his ace play being the interruption of a forward pass by Ridley, and not knowing what to do with it. And still he had the gall to say that the line wasn't half as dumb as the backfield! Whenever Mac dis- appeared, it was either to the smoking room or to tuck. The former was probably his favourite spot, as there he could flash that horrible monstrosity he called a pipe . . . some sort of air-cooling jacket of aluminum that looked like a plumber's nightmare. But Mac loved it. Another of his beauts was his Indian jacket. The gentle breeze would bring the odour of some long- dead animal, and all faces would turn to Mac, striding up in his blessed Indian coat . . . but Mac wou1dn't have TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 been natural without his pipe or coat so we for- gave him. M. G. M. was one of those fellows one really gets to like ,... slap-happy and genuine, and we miss him very much this year. McAVITY, H. K.- Mouse's nosey face and somewhat bowed legs appeared from somewhere in the Maritimes in '37. In his second year he collected First Rugby and Hockey colours. Last year he was Vice-Captain and Captain, respectively, of those two teams, as well as being Co-Captain of swimming, and a Prefect. Universally popular, Mouse was a lively addition to the great Remove form. He had the distinction of having one of the most original styles in cricket ever known to man. Some thought it was just plain un- orthodox, but ,... well, he sometimes actually hit the ball. Mouse has galloped off to the Air Force, where we wish him the best of luck. PEARSON, H. J. S.-Sandy was another of those wild and woolly Westerners who came to us in '36. Last year he was one of the stalwarts of Bethune House, being House Prefect. He was a lineman on the First Rugby Team, and had some great ideas on how bad the line was . . . it was really a treat to hear him ranting and raving over it all. If it wasn't the line, his pet sub- ject was the Canadian Navy. As a matter of fact, the summer before his final year, he signed up as a midshipman in the R.C.N.V.R., obtaining leave to com- plete his education here. One of Sandy's greatest thrills came when his picture was in the New World magazine. Ah, me! He is now a recruit at R.M.C., and is enjoying it very much. Good luck, Sandy! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD BLACK, W. B.- Tank came to the School in '36. He was a Senior and a First Rugby man. Bill became famous for his quick like a bunny passes.-Uust perfectly ordinary passes, only done by Tank!! Some people seemed to insinuate that he was slightly obese. He used to get quite peeved about it, and coined that masterful excuse: Dat's not fat, dat's muscle! -All together, boys! Last year Tank captained the Third Hockey Team, playing a bruising game at defense. He was another of those lads who thought cricket was a great game, but played a hybrid golf-baseball style. His mighty slugs were a joy to see. He either took the grass out by the roots or smashed that ball to Timbuctoo! Usually the former! Tank is also at O.A.C. and runs into difficulty with the same sort of thing as does Higgy , but he is really enjoying it. Don't forget the Old Boys' cricket match next summer, Bill! CAYLEY, P. H.-Another of those brainy lads of the Vlth Form, Peter came to us in '37. Last year he was a First Hockey player. He played Squash, getting his colours, and was a First Gym. Eight colour. In cricket he played on the Thirds. On the Second Rugby Team Peter's ace play I and only hisl was his nothing ball, a weird kick with Cayley Written all over it. We have come into contact with him on the U.T.S. Rugby squad touch!! where he is finishing up his matric. He has hopes of entering the Navy, and we wish him the best of luck. . i.l- - FINLEY, E. G.-- Skip came to T.C.S. in '35 and imme- diately embarked on a most noteworthy career. Last year he was Captain of the First Cricket Team, on the First Hockey Team, First Gym. Eight, Vice-Captain of Squash, winner of the Jubilee Exhibition and the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 Governor-General's Gold Medal . . . both awards for Mathematics . . . He was the unoiiicial mathematics teacher for the bottom fiat of Brent House. When not finding excuses for the losses of his Canadiens, Skip talked only of the Royals. Now he's gone to McGill, where he may get some support! However, we all hope Skipper will come back and visit us often. PEACOCK, E. F.-- Cack came to the S.S. in '36. Last year he was a Senior, and a First Rugby Colour. He was also a member of the Smoking Room Society . . . one of those who'd give his last plugged nickel for a fill of tobacco. However, he did draw the line at Alouette! Cack was a member of the Record staff . . . one of those chaps who never do a darned thing but complain about the work they do! One case when the old order never changeth! He is now at McGill fhaving finally made itll and from what we have heard, is liking it immensely. PHIN, K. G.- Foo entered the School in '37, and was one of the most outstanding brains we have known. Last year he was Editor-in-the-Chief of the Record, and wrote some prize editorials. His last one was a part- ing slam to most of the School, when he effectively pulled Glenn Miller and his orchestra apart. What a dirty trick! He was Head Boy for the year, and was a Senior Privilege, and is now at Queen's, having won a scholarship there. Here's for better Miller editorials, Foo, and don't forget he has America's Most Popu- lar Orchestra! i..1 POCHON, M. L. A.-The Mad Frenchman came to the J. S. in '34 and left us last year. When not pursuing TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD his favourite course of action C?J: Cal sleepingg tbl eating, he found time to be a First Rugby lineman, a Senior, a First Team cricketer, and the usual quota of other things . . . chiefly off the record. Maxie, when not musing over the manifold temptations of life, was known to have pursued Sixth Form scho- lastics . . . with ultimate success. His favourite sub- ject was Algebra . . . at least that's what one heard most about, in no uncertain terms. Putch left a great gap in the School when he left the was over six feetj but what is Trinity's loss is Queen's gain. He visited us not long ago, and seems to be really enjoy- ing the quiet life led by Freshmen at Kingston! 11.l MORE THIRD FORM VVISDOM When bees at last their nest have done They never stop to have their fun, For they fill it up with honey: Their reward . . . we make some money. R. E. S. Morgan. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 frees. 1412! lj! lTy. p T . ' B 'Q ..., llll Ill At Toronto, October 2nd, This game was the team's first real test and they showed that they were a very snappy group, though un- successful on this occasion. Directly after U.T.S. had kicked off at the start of the game T.C.S. fumbled and were forced to kick to U.T.S., who ran the ball to the School's thirty-five yard line. From here, after two first downs, Falconer carried the ball over for U.T.S. and Brown converted. U.T.S. pressed until the end of the quarter when T.C.S. made two successive iirst downs. The second quarter was an orgy of fumbles and pen- alties. At the start the School was driven back to their fifteen yard line but when the half-time whistle blew they had pushed U.T.S. back to their own twenty-five yard line. After the U.T.S. kickoff Somerville returned the kick and U.T.S. had the ball on the fifty yard line. After a few minutes of play, LeMesurier caught a long pass to give T.C.S. the ball on the fifty yard line. A completed forward pass from Duggan ii. to German and a shoestring catch by Tate of a second forward pass brought the ball to the U.T.S. ten yard line. Finally Duggan carried the ball for a touchdown, which was converted by Somerville. From 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD that point on, although T.C.S. held rather an advantage in speed. U.T.S. pressed them back to the two yard line. The School failed to make yards and Brown kicked a field-goal for U.T.S. After T.C.S. had blocked a U.T.S. kick on the School's forty yard line, T.C.S. advanced the ball by for- ward passes to the U.T.S. forty yard line but were unable to go further before time was up. The line played exceptionally well for the School, not to mention the starry backiield, while Falconer and Brown were most effective for U.T.S. The final score was: U.T.S. 9, T.C.S. 6.

SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Newmarket, October 5th. The game, as the score indicates, was very close and had not Pickering had such a wonderful kicker in the per- son of Haskell, the School probably would have run up a higher score. All through the game a deceptive wind made things very hard for the half-backs. Helped by this wind, Picker- ing recovered a T.C.S. fumble on the School's ten yard line, and shortly afterwards Davis went over for a converted touchdown. In the second quarter the School held a definite edge in the play, and, after an exchange of kicks, Somerville kicked to rouge a Pickering man. Pickering kicked off to start the second half, and Somerville ran the ball back to centre-field. After a T.C.S. kick Pickering were forced back to their five yard line and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 there Duggan i. broke through to block their kick. Picker- ing recovered the ball behind their own line for a safety touch. The fourth quarter saw some very good running by Hart and Somerville for the School. T.C.S. then ad- vanced to the Pickering five yard line but were unable to capitalize. Pickering, however, were forced to kick from behind their own line. The kick was high and short and LeMesurier, running like lightning, scooped up the ball, before Haskell could retrieve it, and ploughed twenty-five yards for a touchdown, which was converted by Somer- ville. The game ended two minutes later with the score 9-6 in the School's favour. T.C.S.-Duggan ii.

TEAM At Port Hope, October 9th. In this game, although it was played against a team obviously more experienced, fit was the team that had played Queen's Intermediatesl, the School gave an excellent account of itself. The game started off very evenly, neither team having any advantage, but towards the end of the first quarter R.M.C. were forced back to their own ten yard line by virtue of four penalties and two quick kicks by T.C.S. They managed to kick out of danger, however, and the quarter ended with no score. Early in the second quarter, Somerville of T.C.S. kicked to the deadline for one point. Soon after this R.M.C. marched down the field and Stevens kicked for one point. 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD After an attempted R.M.C. placement failed, LeMesurier was rouged to put R.M.C. in the lead at half-time. T.C.S. kicked off in the second half and for most of the third quarter the play hovered near mid-field. The outstanding play of the quarter was a long forward pass by T.C.S. from Duggan ii. to Hart which was good for thirty yards. There was, however, no scoring during this quarter. Early in the last quarter a costly T.C.S. fumble gave R.M.C. the ball on the T.C.S. twenty-tive yard line. In two plays R.M.C. scored a touchdown, Everett crossing the line after catching a forward pass. The convert was good. Not long after this R.M.C. started near mid-field and, after making several first downs, Sellar caught a forward pass to score R.M.C.'s second touchdown. This time the convert failed. T.C.S. then threw several desperate last- minute forward passes, but the game ended with the score: R.M.C. 13, T.C.S. 1. Stevens and McWilliams played outstandingly for R.M.C. while Tate, Jones i., and Duggan ii. played best for the School.

The School's third victory of the year came in the re- turn game with U.T.S. The scoring was opened in the first few minutes of play when Tate fell on the ball behind the line after a U.T.S. fumble. The touchdown was not converted. There was no further scoring in the period, in spite of numerous other fumbles. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 U.T.S. rallied in the second quarter to march down the field, chiefly owing to Falconer's wonderful running. The ball was bucked over the line for a touchdown by LeRoy. The convert hit the goal-post but did not go through. In the third quarter LeMesurier ran an intercepted pass to the U.T.S. three yard line. T.C.S. lost two yards on their second down, fumbling on their third, giving U.T.S. the ball. T.C.S. regained possession of the ball, but were penalized fifteen yards: Somerville kicked one point. To make up for this bad luck, T.C.S. sent Hart round the left end several plays later, and another touchdown was scored, the convert went wild. In the fourth quarter U.T.S. managed to get another point by tackling Somerville behind the line. Final score: T.C.S. 11, U.T.S. 6.

For the first time in several years a School team out- played a squad of Old Boys. The veterans, however, owing to the war conditions, were not at full strength. As a matter of fact they could only iield twelve men, including the Headmaster. The Old Boys got off to a good start when bucks by Braden, McCulloch, and Thomson advanced the ball to the School twenty-five yard line. From there Thomson tried a placement which was only good for one point. The Old Boys again rouged the School after the Headmaster had kicked from centre-field. A few minutes later the Headmaster again kicked to behind the School line but this time LeMesurier ran the ball out. Another attempted placement by the Old Boys went to the deadline for one point. The School then marched down the field, completing 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD two long forward passes, and then LeMesurier completed a pass to Duggan ii., to score the first points for the School. The touchdown was converted by Somerville. Shortly after the kick-off Jim Thomson, for the Old Boys, intercepted a forward pass and ran spectacularly for forty yards to a touchdown, which he also converted. The score at the end of the first half stood at 9-6 in the Old Boys' favour. At the beginning of the second half the old Boys, struggling fiercely, were forced back to their own five-yard line and after the kick the School ran the ball to the twenty-five. From that point, after a forward pass was completed by Lambert, LeMesurier went over for the School's second touchdown. This was also converted by Somerville. On the kick-off it was noticed that the Old Boys had thirteen men on the field, the School having lent one or two men to bolster their defence, but no official action was taken. Soon Draper went over for another School touchdown. The Old Boys elected to scrimmage the ball and on the first play, an end run, fortune again smiled on the School when Olds intercepted a lateral pass to cross the line standing up. Caldwell converted to make the score 23-9 in the School's favour. The Old Boys then threw everything into a last desper- ate effort. When, in the final play, Cayley recovered a suspicious-looking School fumble, the Old Boys had a final chance, but they were unable to capitalize and the game ended with no further score. Jim Kerr's tackling was a feature for the Old Boys. Jim Thomson's running, the plunging of Joe McCulloch and Bill Braden, and Dave Ambrose's work on the line were also highlights. Mention must also be made to the good tackling performed by Messrs. Peter Heybroek, Skip Finley, Pete Cayley, and Doc Cartwright. Tom Seagram at snap was more than reliable, while Gord Best only called two quarterback sneaks . The Headmasterfs TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 kicking left nothing to be desired, and, on the whole, the game provided more than enough entertainment and ex- ercise for those concerned. SECOND TEAM The Seconds journeyed to Lakefield on October 16th. Lakefield started well by scoring sixteen points. Touch- downs by Kirby, Dobbin and Potts all connected. The School could manage only three singles. In the second quarter, however, T.C.S. came to life, and before the half-time whistle blew, they had scored sixteen points, while Lakefield scored nil. Our touches were made by Love, Knapp i., and Caldwell. In the third quarter, Trinity scored a safety touch and a rouge, While Lakeiield got a touch and a rouge. In the final quarter, with the score tied, twenty-two all, Lakeiield carried the play, gaining another twelve points. Pope and Tilley were responsible for the major Scores, while Roberts accounted for a convert and a single. Final score: The Grove 34g T.C.S. 22. On Thursday, October 3rd., the Second Team played the Port Hope High School. From the start, T.C.S. took the lead, getting a touch- down, scored by MacLean on a pass from Elliot, and two singles. in the first half. The second half of the game brought three touches, by Love C23 and Knapp i., with two converts. Final score: T.C.S. IInd. 34, Port Hope High School 0. i i 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SIX-MAN FOOTBALL Following last year's precedent, Middleside and Little- side were again divided into six-man football teams. Mr. Morse took charge of the lkiiddleside group and Mr. Humble, as usual, of the Littleside teams. Four team captains were elected for each group, and for three weeks inter-team games were played.

Although far from the actual scene of conflict we are all affected very much by it, even if in varying degrees. We consider it our duty under such conditions to maintain that good morale and cheerfulness for which the British race is justly renowned. These are not idle words, it will not always be easy for us all to do so, but endeavour we must. Much easier surely for us than for the boys in schools that have already been bombed and under the constant threat of bombing. We should also try and realize how fortunate we are to be in Canada free to carry on as usual in our ordinary school life. It also surely should make us realize how important it is for us to do a really good job of work at whatever tasks come to us. A successful School year is in no small measure a good piece of War work both for the individual and the School as a Whole. Welcome ! We have a large School this year, larger than for some years. This is in part due to the number of war guests who have come to Canada for their schooling for the duration. To all the new boys in our midst we say, wel- come to the School, and to our boys from England may we add welcome to Canada as well. Words of welcome and good wishes are extended also to the new members of the staff: To Mr. and Mrs. Tottenham for their safe return from the Senior School: to Mr.Edwards who is taking Mr. Page's place: to Miss Gibson who is assisting with the younger boys, and to Mr. Harris who is taking over Mr. Schaefer's work in the field of art. l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 On Active Service Mr. W. D. Page, for two years a member of the Junior School staff, has resigned and joined the R.C.A.F. When last heard from he was stationed at Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and was an Air Corporal. The Junior School wishes Mr. Page good luck and happy landings. School Officials Captain of Rugby-E. Howard. Captain of Soccer-R. Hope. Curator of the Library-A. Millward. Assistant Curator-R.

Perry. l,.1 Chronicle The opening of Michaelmas term was unfortunately the signal for mumps and later chicken pox to join us. Happily these rather inevitable maladies of the young have been kept from reaching epidemic proportions but they have succeeded in putting a number of boys in quarantine and the rest of us in a sort of inglorious isolation. One of the precautions deemed necessary was that we should refrain from mixing with the Senior School. This has of course necessitated our having prayers read and service held in the Junior School. We greatly miss not being with the Senior School for worship and hope we will soon be able to join them. We have been enjoying many things however, in par- ticular the line weather which at the time of writing seems almost like June. Our games time as a result has been 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD most pleasant although our unwelcome visitors previously mentioned have very seriously curtailed our games with other schools, even with the Senior School. This has been unfortunate as both the rugby and soccer squads have been practising with commendable enthusiasm, and, much to their credit, even when matches with other schools appear unlikely. ' Only one school rugby match has been played to-date, that with Upper Canada in Toronto on Saturday, October 19th, which resulted in a defeat by the score of 32-0. A further report of the game appears elsewhere in this num- ber. For the first time in several years the soccer squad has been placed on the same footing as rugby as a major autumn sport. This was prompted in fact by the large number of English boys anxious to carry on with the game most familiar to them. The squad has been working hard and we hope that it will soon be possible for them to show their mettle. A most pleasant interlude in the School routine took place on October 4th, when the entire School journeyed to Sylvan Glen for a picnic. The weather was ideal, the food likewise and very few cases of indigestion were afterwards reported. Gifts We are much indebted to Mrs. D. M. Hogarth for kind- ly giving us a cheque which made possible the repairing of our billiard table. Also to Mr. F. H. Briden for supply- ing a large number of very useful files for our wood-work shop. To both these donors we would like to say thank you very much. ,. l Valete Sim, D. A.-Form II. Currie, D. A.-Form I. A. Stewart, C.-Form I. A. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 RUGBY Junior School vs. U.C.C. On Saturday morning, Oct. 19th, we met U.C.C. on their own grounds in Toronto. The weather was cold and the ground rather hard. Some of our players were in- experienced, this being their first season of rugby. Un- fortunately we were on the short end of the score by a rather wide margin. 32-0. Their team was a little heavier and faster than ours. Most of the points were scored in the first half, four touchdowns being procured. On the Whole it was a good game, the play not being indicated by the score. Perhaps with a little more practise and a few less mumps it would have been a better game.

Ede, R.A.F., D.F.C., Sub-Lieutenant L. R. McLernon, D.S.C., of the Royal Canadian Navy Vol- unteer Reserve, and to Flying Officer B. D. Russel, D.F.C., of the Royal Canadian Air Force, on being decorated by His Majesty the King for gallantry in action. Leslie McLernon was detailed to a destroyer during the evacuation from Dunkirk and though the full story is yet to be told it seems that he and a fellow-Canadian, Dave Killam of Vancouver, performed amazing deeds of heroism in rescuing troops under constant fire from the shore and the air. The official citation on August 2nd, 1940, mentions courage and resource in naval manoeuvresf' It is interesting to note that of the eight Canadian sub- lieutenants-in-training selected for this hazardous work, two, Leslie McLernon and Geoff Scott C35-'37J were T.C.S. Old Boys. Dal Russel was sent over last spring with the first Canadian fighter squadron and he lost no time in showing his skill and bravery in the air. Several times pictures of him uypezzred in the prf-ss and more than once he was TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 'o referred to in despatches and broadcasts without being named. On October 9th he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross with two other members of the squadron for gallantry and skill in air battles. Dal has probably account- ed for over ten bombers. Elsewhere in this issue appears a quotation from oneqof his letters, in which he tells of some of his battles. H. F. G. Ede C30-'34l had been in the R.A.F. for two years before the outbreak of war and was at the R.A.F. College at Cranwell with Peter O'Brian. On June 9th, he was reported as missing and no word has been heard from him since then. Recently he was given up for lost but it now transpires that he was on the aircraft carrier Glorious when she was sunk by the Germans and the enemy now say that they have some four hundred prison- ers from that engagement. It is greatly to be hoped that Francis Ede is a prisoner. The Air Ministry citation de- scribing the action for which the D.F.C. was awarded reads as follows: On May 23rd, 1940, Flying Officer Ede attacked and shot down a Heinkel 111. During this action his aircraft was badly damaged, but skilfully handling his aircraft, he was able to reach his base. On 24th May, 1940, this oflicer, single handed, courageously diverted an attack by four Messerschmitt 110's, causing the enemy to abandon their attack on Bardu Foss aerodrome. The next day, Flying Officer Ede attacked, single handed, two Junkers 90, and after causing one to retreat and jettison its bombs into the sea, he attacked the second aircraft and shot it down in flames. i Q I Q i Half-holidays have been enjoyed in honour of all of these gallant Old Boys. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD G. H. K. STRATHY 1918-1940 Pat Strathy came to the Junior School in 1929, the son of an Old Boy and younger brother of two Old Boys. He immediately began to distinguish himself in his school work, and before he entered the Senior School he had pass- ed six papers of his Middle School or Junior Matriculation examinations with high honours. He was no book-worm, of a reasoning, original turn of mind, it seemed as if Pat knew the answers almost be- fore he met the problems. Very soon in the Senior School his brilliance made itself obvious. He had studied Greek instead of Science but he thought he would like to know something of Physics and Chemistry. With very little help, and at the same time that he was preparing for twelve Upper School papers, he looked into those subjects and succeeded in passing the Middle School- Physics with 927: and the Chemistry with 8492. Pat did not let himself become an academic person solelyg he took part in games and his bowling on Middle- side will long be rememberedg he conceived and edited and printed a School sheet named the Trinity Tatler, and many were the exclamations on each successive appearance of ity he was keenly interested in good music and made full use of the classical records in the Hallg he read widely and kept himself exceedingly well-informed. In the spring of 1934, at the age of sixteen years and four months, he wrote a complete Upper School or Senior Matriculation in English, Latin, Greek, and four Mathema- tics papers, as well as Middle School Physics and Chem- istry. He passed all papers and obtained first class honours in the four Mathematics and two Science papers. He was Head Boy and Chancellor's Prize Man, and won the Jubilee Exhibition and the Governor-General's medal for Mathematics: he also was awarded the Professor William Jones Scholarship in Mathematics at Trinity College. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 Because of his age it was decided that he should have another year or two at an English Public School before entering the University, and he went to Charterhouse in September, 1934. This was an experiment very seldom attempted before, but Pat made it a thorough success. His Housemaster's reportsumade it clear that the Senior Boys in his House were very soon won over by Pat's unostenta- tious brilliance and sincere interest and ability in all aspects of school life. He spent two years at Charterhouse on the Science side, and in the Ontario Upper School examinations of 1936 he won the First Edward Blake Scholarship in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Problems, the Second Edward Blake in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Physics at the University of Toronto, and the Welling- ton Scholarship in Mathematics at Trinity College, three of the most coveted mathematics scholarships at the Uni- versity. He entered Trinity College in September, 1936, and throughout his University career he won distinction after distinction, he regularly headed his first class honour group in the Mathematics and Physics course, winning some five scholarships, he was honoured in his final year for Dis- tinguished Service to the University, and he was a mem- ber of the University of Toronto Mathematics team of three which won the Putnam award in competition with some sixty other universities on this continent. When the British Admiralty called for volunteers of exceptional capacity in Mathematics and Physics, Pat was one of the first to offer his services. He went to England in May, 1940, a Sub-Lieutenant in the R.C.N.V.R. After special training he was, at his own request, detailed to a ship, the famous Ajax. Letters from him showed how keenly he was interested in his work with a secret gad- get , how busy he was, and, by inference, how much trust was put in him. Pat was killed in action early in the morning of October 12th, 1940. His ship, the Ajax , encountered 62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD two squadrons of enemy warships and immediately attack- ed, sinking three of them. One shell hit the Ajax, killing five of its crew. Pat and his shipmates were buried at Gibraltar. H. L. GORDON 1907-1940 Hugh Gordon entered the Senior School in September, 1922. He made steady progress in his school work and in games, and in his final year he was an outside wing on the first football team. Those who saw that team in action will never forget the way Hugh threw himself into the game, rarely missing a tackle. On more than one occasion he suffered injuries which would have prompted most boys to leave the game but Hugh never noticed his bumps and bruises in a yearning desire to give his best. As a member of the V A form he was successful in being admitted to the R.M.C. in 1925 and there again he gave himself whole-heartedly to all the activities and con- tributed much to the life of the College. He then spent a year at Trinity College, Toronto, before taking up the profession of Chartered accountancy. For some years he had been a member of the firm of Clarkson, Gordon, Dilworth and Nash in Montreal, but on the outbreak of war he immediately offered his services to the Air Force. - He was posted to British Columbia. On August 14th, in the course of duty, he was being flown to Patricia Bay as Equipment Officer when his plane suddenly dived into the sea near Courtney and he and his four companions were lost. Hugh was married to Helen Gordon, the daughter of Mr. Justice P. H. Gordon C00-'02l of Regina and he and his wife were at the School for our 75th Anniversary cele- brations. Besides his wife, Hugh leaves two small sons, the youngest born on August 2nd. last. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63 FRANCIS EDE The Headmaster has had a letter from Mrs. Ede dated October 20th, telling him of the award of the D.F.C. to her son Francis of the R.A.F. We are taking the liberty of publishing parts of it: . We have heard nothing from Francis since June 9th. He was in the 'Glorious' and all the Air Ministry can tell us in that the Germans say they have 'four hundred odd' prisoners. C1200 were lost from the Gloriousb. I had a letter from Francis on May 30th So cheery and full of happiness--very pleased with himself over that week's work. He asked to go to Norway, so everything was as he wanted it-and his job meant a great deal to him. They are all so splendid, these lads of ours. Should my Francis not come back I shall have the comfort that his sacrifice will not have been in vain. It surely will be a new world that those who are left will build when all the horror is ended. I hope you will continue to have good news of your boys and that you will for the School accept your share of pride in our Francis. W. K. W.

Jones, who was the oldest living Old Boy of the School, was born in Port Hope and entered T.C.S. when it was at Weston in 1865, leaving in 1867. He was one of The Four Prefects of 1866, pictured on the Life of Sir William Os1er, and is No. 21 on the School register. After leaving the School he entered Trinity College and upon graduation he joined the Government Service, in which he had a most notable career. He was intimately connected with the building of the old Intercolonial Railway and later became secretary to Sir Collingwood Schreiber, chief consulting engineer during the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Mr. Jones left Sir Collingwood at the completion of the transcon- tinental line to become secretary of the Department of Rail- ways and Canals. He was later appointed assistant deputy minister, a post he held until his retirement. Mr. Jones sent a message of good wishes to the School last June, which read as follows: As the oldest living pupil of Trinity College School I send my greetings on the 75th Anniversary. Seventy-five years seems a long time to you all, since my college days. I celebrate my 92nd birthday the 9th of June, a double anniversary celebration for me this month. Owing to my advanced years, my presence among you all will be im- possible, but my thoughts and my heart are with you. , 70 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD PACK HARRIS It was a great shock for his friends to hear of Pack Harris's sudden death in a shooting accident on October 14th., 1940. The following has been written by an Old Boy who knew Pack well: Pack, in my estimation, was one of the greatest char- acters that ever went through T.C.S. He came from Gore's Landing on Rice Lake and would come and go from the School by sleigh in the winter and by horse and buggy in the summer. He told me that his father put him through T.C.S. on 100 shares of the old C.P.R. stock. He will always be remembered by the boys of his time for his great love of trapping and outdoor life. He and Jack Fraser would set 50 or 60 traps for muskrats during the rat season and would get up every morning and make the rounds. These two, many years later, carried on this business from an island on Rice Lake. He was never brilliant at School but was a plugger. He always passed his examinations and played football. There is no doubt in my mind that he was the outstanding wing player of the 1908 team. He played middle wing, weighing only 145 pounds, but all muscle. I can remember well the players on the other schools thought he was an Indian because he had that dark complexion and fought like one. He was awarded the Bronze medal when he graduated in 1909, much to the surprise of everybody, but when they started to think over things they all agreed that he de- served it. He entered McGill in the fall of 1909, joining the Zeta Psi Fraternity where he lived. He didn't turn out for football on account of the very strict rules that were enforced at McGill regarding the attendance of lec- tures. When Jack Maynard, Buck Pearce and myself would go down to Montreal to play against McGill we would all feel very relieved if Pack and Reg Dempster were not play- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71 ing on the McGill team which they could have easily made and might have turned a couple of games in McGill's favour as they were two of the really great players that ever Went through the School. I received a letter from Pack in May saying how sorry he was in not being able to be with us for the big reunion in June. This is as brief a summary as I can give you on Pack but he was one of those characters that anybody who could write could easily write a book about. He was a great friend and he certainly loved the old School. T.i.i W. G. PRICE 1910-1940 It was with deep sorrow that we heard of the tragic death of William Gilmore Price who was accidentally killed at Riverbend, Quebec, in July. Gilly was at the School from Michaelmas, 1922 until Trinity. 1928, during which time his cheerful grin and fuzzy red hair were Well known to us all. Gilly put all his energy into whatever he did. He was one of the best goal keepers T.C.S. had had for many years and his outstanding performances on the ice are well re- membered by his contemporaries. One of the oflicials of the mill where Gilly worked said he had a wonderful reputation for always doing his job and a little more, and that he was very popular with every- one from the mill manager to the broke hustlers . We who knew and admired him offer our sincere sym- pathy to his wife and family and hope that his infant son will inherit his Father's outstanding personality and fine character. i 72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD G. E. WILKINSON 1911-1940 Gordon Wilkinson entered the Junior School in Sep- tember, 1924, and left the Senior School at Christmas, 1928. He was one of the most likeable and popular boys, always in good humour, always thoughtful and helpful. During his four years at the School he took a keen part in all the branches of our life, and though he did not stay long enough to be in one of the top forms, or to play on one of the first teams, he proved himself ever to be a character strong as a rock, steady and reliable. After leaving in 1928 he entered business in Toronto. Last spring he applied to enter the Air Force and he ex- pected to be called up any day. On September 12th he was motoring near Woodville on business when his car was struck by a train and he was instantly killed. Lyman Luke C16-'21l is with the Inspection Staff of the Bank of Montreal. He called at the School in June. Lyman is married and has a boy and a girl. ll! Il!

Forbes for St. Andrew's College against Upper Canada in a Little Big Four cricket match Saturday, has reminded an old- timer of many years ago. Oldtime cricketers may recall the unusual feat of Fred Pellatt, younger brother of the late Sir Henry Pellatt, at Trinity College School, Port Hope, some fifty years ago. In a match against Hamilton Colts, Fred Pellatt captured six wickets on six consecutive balls fa double hat-trickl. Fred Pellatt now lives at 5 Stibbard Avenue, Toronto.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING T.C.S. O.B.A. Port Hope, October 14th., 1940 At the Annual General Meeting of the O.B.A. held at Port Hope on October 14, Mr. S. S. DuMoulin was re-elect- ed, and Messrs. Argue Martin and Greville Hampson were elected, to represent the Old Boys on the Governing Body of the School, the election to hold for three, two, and one, years respectively. Two minor amendments to the constitution of the O. B.A. were passed, enabling the Executive Committee for the future to elect any Old Boy of the School as President of the Association, and stipulating that officers were to be elected for the calendar year. The annual report of the President of the O.B.A. follows below. During the past year the Executive Committee has met on three occasions. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The chief work of the Association during the past year has been connected with the celebration of the School's 75th Anniversary, at Port Hope, on June lst. last. This work was done by a special committee of the Old Boys under the chairmanship of Mr. Argue Martin. A Branch of the Association has been formed in New York, to include all Old Boys living in the U.S.A. east of the Rocky Mountains. An Old Boys' Directory, which had been prepared by the Association over the previous two years, Was brought out last February, and distributed to all members of the Association. Its printing and binding was made possible through the generosity of the late Mr. W. R. Houston U80-'82J of Toronto. A short history of the School was also distributed to all Old Boys on the occasion of the School's 75th Anniversary. The Membership in the Association has continued to increase, and now stands at about 560 members, which is probably an all-time record. This figure includes some Old Boys on Active Service, who were members at time of enlistment and who have signified their wish to continue to receive the Record. All of which is respectfully submitted. fsignedm J. EWART OSBORNE, President. j. S. Forbes YGU ALWAYS GET A TASTE THRILL when Ritz are served.

Morris PRAYER IN USE IN THE CHAPEL FOR OLD BOYS ON ACTIVE SERVICE 0 Almighty God, who art wiser than the children of men and overrulest all things to their good, hold, we beseech Thee, in Thy keeping all who have gone forth to battle from this School: watch over those that are missing: comfort and protect those ln the hands of the enemy. Be with them in the hour of danger, strengthen them in the hour of weakness, sustain and comfort them ln the hour of sickness or of death. Grant that they may be true to their calling and true always to Thee, and make both them and' us to be strong to do our duty in Thy service, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

But I was born at Marlborough, and love the homely faces there. and for all other men besides 'tis little love I have to spare. I should not mind to die for them, my own dear downs, my comrades true. But that great heart of Bethlehem. he died for men he never knew. And yet, I think, at Golgotha as Jesus' eyes were closed in death. they saw with love most passionate the village street at Nazareth.

Many soul-stirring events have taken place since last Christmas, and we are still struggling for the life of justice and real freedom. We live in Canada, and so are still in a position, as are few other nations, to celebrate the day as one of good- will and happiness, and remember the ideals and hope to which it gave birth. For these twenty-four hours it would probably be the best thing in the world for us all to forget the ugly side of the war and think only of the true meaning of Christmas and the ideals of democracy. Our Old Boys on active service cannot, perhaps, get much of the Christmas spirit into their veins, but still we wish them, and all our readers a Happy Christmas and a New Year of continual progress toward Peace on earth, goodwill toward men. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Well, the Mighty Mechanized Forces of Il Duce Benito Mussolini's Italy have swung into action. Backwards. How proud the Musse must be of his fine, upstand- ing Roman warriors. The newspapers tell of how the Greeks were forced to use horses to keep up with the retreating Italians. One great invention has come out of this war, says Bob Hope,- a 'plane capable of flying backward,-the Italian 'plane . It is rumoured that the Fascist tanks are equipped with one forward, and three backward speeds. However, Italy's army has been very sporting about the whole thing, leaving all those stores of equipment, munitions, guns, and tanks for the Greeks. Mussolini's fleet has been doing wonders in Italy's Sea . Those dashing engagements. Those daring attacks. Surely these mighty battles will go down in the annals of history as the greatest examples of naval action since Caesar ruled the world. Those Greeks have shown to the world what plain guts will do for a nation. The British have known it all along, and are proving their mettle day in and day out, on another front. Now it is our turn. We Canadians have to show the stuff we're made of. We must help by giving, and giving gladly to those great organizations, particularly the Red Cross, who need our aid to carry on their wonderful work. Our most direct contribution to Canada's War Effort lies through the medium of War Saving Stamps. Posters all over the country are urging us to Buy War Savings Stamps . It's our duty. We have our bit to do, and if we show that we too have the guts , we shall win this war and free the World from the heathen heel of barbarism. -C.I.P.T. DR. j. C. MAYNARD QL. ING OFFICIQR H. I . G.

After the opening hymn the Headmaster spoke as follows: Let us remember before God all those brave spirits who have given their earthly lives in the cause of Christian civilization, especially the two sons of this School who have recently died in action, or on active service: Hugh Lockhart Gordon, T.C.S. 1922-1925. George Henry Kirkpatrick Strathy, T.C.S. 1929-1934. Let us give our deep and humble thanks to Almighty God for the fineness and example of their splendid lives, and pray that their final sacrifice may never be betrayed, but that we, through our lives, may help to fashion and Hrmly establish on this earth a new order in which true justice and true freedom and all righteousness may reign supreme, and War may be no more. Blow out, you bugles, over the rich Dead! There's none of these so lonely and poor of old, But, dying, has made us rarer gifts than gold. These laid the world away, poured out the red Sweet wine of youth, gave up the years to be Of Work and joy, and that unhoped serene, That men call age, and those who would have been Their sons, they gave, their immortality. Blow, bugles, blow! They brought us, for our dearth, Holiness, lacked so long, and Love, and Pain. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Honour has come back, as a king, to earth, And paid his subjects with a royal wage, And Nobleness walks in our ways again, And We have come into our heritage. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Dr. Orchard preached, mentioning the two Old Boys who have given their lives in the present conflict. He recalled a few incidents in the lives of each of the boys during their stay at the School. He then pointed out how Jack Waller's wooden cross, which is built into the wall just outside the Chapel, reminds us of the one hundred and twenty-one boys from this School who gave their lives in the last War. Dr. Orchard ended his sermon by reading the follow- ing prayer, written by the late Right Rev. C. H. Brent C80- '81l, one of the School's most distinguished sons, and a former master. They are Thine, O Lord, Thou lover of souls. Wisdom xi. 26. We give them back to Thee, dear Lord, Who gavest them to us-yet as Thou dost not lose them in giving, so we have not lost them by their return. Not as the world giveth, givest Thou, O Lover of souls. What Thou gavest Thou takest not away: for what is Thine is ours always, if we are Thine. And life is eternal and love is immortal, and death is only an horizon, and an horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight, Lift us up, strong Son of God, that we may see further-cleanse our sight that we may sec more clearly. Draw us closer to Thyself that we may know ourselves nearer to our beloved who are with Thee- and while Thou dost prepare a place for us, prepare us for that happy place, that where they are and Thou art, we, too, may be-through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 On Sunday, October 27th, Dr. Glover addressed the School in Chapel. He took his text from the Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans: 6th chapter, 14th verse: Sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under the law but under Grace. He pointed out that Jesus left no rules. and that this makes religion difficult, but He did give us a Way of life, by His own example, and if we are to follow in His Way our life must be based on his beliefs. He end- ed by saying that We may expect to have enemies, as Christ had many, and that We need not forgive our enemies, but that if they repent We must forgive them. On Sunday, November 3rd, Canon Robertson, of St. John's Church, Peterborough, preached in Chapel. He re- minded us of the story of David and Goliath, and included many amusing illustrative gestures. He then went on to show how giants appear in our every-day life, and we, like David, have to iight them. In our cases, though, the giants are tendencies toward bad living, in the form of laziness, lying and cheating, to men- tion a few. On Sunday, November 17th., the Headmaster spoke in Chapel. He read a letter, which was Written by a young airman to his mother, to be opened only in the event of his not returning from one of his distant raids into Ger- many. In the letter he said that he was sorry that he would not be with his mother in her declining years, but he felt that, by doing his utmost in the line of duty, he had helped her to live them in peace. 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD On Sunday, November 24th., the Headmaster address- ed the School in Chapel as follows: Let There Be Light A few weeks ago the electricity failed us one evening and we were left in darkness, what was our first impulse? To scurry around and find candles, flashlights, anything that would give us light to cast away the darkness. That is significant-it is the reason man has progressed as far as he has toward civilization. Some of the most tremendously moving words in the whole Bible come right at the beginning, in the third verse of the lirst chapter of Genesis: And God said, let there be light, and there was light. The very creation of man was really dependent on the creation of light and all the early peoples knew the vital importance of light and warmth. Hence we hear of sun worshippers, legends such as the one about Prometheus stealing tire from heaven, taking it to the earth and being chained up by the Gods because of his theft. Letting one's imagination roam a little we can picture the first time an Indian in this country discovered fire and light by accident, perhaps as he was shaping flints for his arrow heads. Think of the amazement, the awe, with which he looked at the little tongues of flame, the first he had ever seen, and no one kn.owing where it had come from. It is a long cry from that experience to the iirst elec- tric lamp, but the amazement must have been similar when Edison, only a few miles to the south of us, first turned darkness into light with that extraordinary device. So common has light become now in modern homes and towns that we feel only a serious emergency should interrupt it. We lay great store by it, because the light of the body is the eye and what we see is revealed through the eye to the mind and understanding. When light illum- inates darkness, more is revealed to us, we understand more. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 On August 4, 1914, just after the time limit of the ultimatum had elapsed and Britain was at war with Ger- many, Sir Edward Grey, then the British Foreign Secretary, stood in the foreign office, a fine figure of a man somewhat bent with his responsibilities, and looking thoughtfully out of the windows he remarked: The lights are going out all over Europe. It was true: the lights were going out for men and for nations, but they came on again with the defeat of those whose intention it was to keep the lights out for large masses of people. Every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light lest his deeds should be reprovedf' The light came back again in 1918, on November 11th, and for a time it seemed as if it would be the strongest light the world had ever known, guiding all the nations of the earth. But it grew weaker and Hickered because it was not fed sufficiently, and then it was deliberately put out again over large parts of the world by those who pre- fer darkness, knowing full well that only in the darkness of the mind can their hateful deeds flourish. What hope is there that the flame will burn again and darkness be once more turned into light? The hope is inside the individual man. In every human being there is a Trinity of God-given qualities-Truth, Beauty, Righteousness and all that they imply. It is unfortunately true, as we have recently seen, that these qualities can be temporarily stamped out of otherwise humane and human young people, by a diabolic- ally clever and persistent campaign designed to poison and inflame the emotions and passions of man at the expense of his reason, yet it is still true that though the official light has been turned off by dictatorial command, there must yet be alive in the hearts of subjugated thousands, a small flame, flickering unsteadily perhaps, impatient for air so that it may flare up once again. There is probably nothing the self-seeking tyrants fear more than this tiny 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD flame smouldering in the hearts of their own people, burn- ing in the hearts of those they have attempted to crush, and now fiaming in the hearts of free men who are at liberty to use their minds and spirits, and feed the light of truth, beauty, and righteousness which is within them. Where did this light arise, this shining thing in the souls of free men '? How can We nourish it and what does it mean? At this time of the year we are beginning to prepare for Christmas, the birth of Jesus. In the first chapter of St. John We are told that in the beginning was the word, and the word was God: all things were made by Himg in Him was life, and the life was the light of men. Then came John the Baptist who was sent to bear witness of God, the true light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. You remember John the Baptist preached repentance and urged the people to prepare the way of the Lord, to make his paths straight: stir up, we beseech thee O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people. Later Jesus referred to John as a burning and a shining light, guiding the people. Then the wise men saw a great light and they followed the star to the manger Where Jesus lay, the light snowed them the way, the Way of abundant life. There is a famous painting hanging in Keble College, Oxford. The artist, Holman Hunt, has shown an ex- pansive doorway With vines outlining it, and before the door stands Jesus with a lamp in his hand, one arm up- raised in the act of knocking. The picture is entitled, The Light of the World, and it illustrates the gospel saying that Jesus stands at the door of our hearts, and knocks. He is right inside us and all we have to do is to open the door of the inmost chamber. At the beginning of this address I quoted the third verse of Genesis, And God said, let there be light, and there was light. Further on in the same first chapter of Genesis come the following words, stupendous in their full meaning: TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Q And God said, let us make man in our own image, after our likenessg and let him have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowls of the air, and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created Man in His own image, in the image of God created He him, male and female created He them. You will notice that man was to have dominion over all beasts, but there is no mention of man having dominion over other men, or over other nations. Is not that, with other allied evils, just what we are resisting, at great cost, today? God made man in His own image, we often forget that. Man is by nature endowed with the love of beauty, truth, righteousness, and it is only because of his greed and blindness that he allows these qualities to be suffocated and his divine nature to be corrupted. Rudyard Kipling tells a tale that at the birth of time when man was still damp from the clay of the pit whence he had been digged, man claimed that he, too, was in some sort a God. The Gods weighed his evidence and decided that man's claim was good. But then the Gods stole away man's godhead, intending to hide it where man could never find it again. This was not so easy. If they hid it any- where on the Earth, the Gods knew man would leave no stone unturned until he had recovered it. If they con- cealed it among themselves they feared man might even fly his way up to the skies to find it. And while they were all at a stand-still, the wisest of ,the Gods said, I know, give it to me. I-Ie closed his hand upon the tiny unstable light of rnan's stolen godhead, and when that great hand opened again, the light was gone. All is well, said Brahm, I have hidden the god- head where man will never dream of looking for it. I have hidden it inside man himself. What was it Jesus answered to the man who asked him where he could find the Kingdom of God? The King- dom of God is within you , were his words. 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD A wonderful playii came to.Toronto a week ago. It has been making a deep impression on thousands of peo- ple. It is a new war play called, There Shall Be No Night, and it tells the story of a Finnish doctor named Valkonen who had just been awarded the Nobel Prize for his researches into the nature and causes of mental dis- eases. Dr. Valkonen has devoted his life to the benefit of his fellow men. He broadcasts to America, pointing out the extreme danger of the majority of men becoming diseased mentally, and losing their godheads, and he says the most important work of exploration before us is to ex- plore man himself, his mind, his spirit, his character. Can we know ourselves before it is too late, can we rediscover the divinity in man before he has degenerated into a beast? Then war comes to Finland. Dr. Valkonen's son goes off to fight, and is later killed: he 'himself works in an army hospital, goes to the front and just before the final attack of the Russians, in which he is killed, he finds himself in a little country school house taking shelter for a moment with his companions, an Englishman, two Americans, a Pole. I am going to read some of the dialogue that takes place in this last scene: Frank: Dr. Valkonen .... Valkonen: Yes, Frank? Frank: I've wanted to ask you a question . . ' Dr. Valkonen: Yes? Frank: About your book .... Dr. Valkonen: You've been carrying that around with you ? Frank: Yes, I bought it in Viipuri when we Hrst went there. Ben: Frank is more worried about your book, Doctor, than he is about the Russians. Frank: There's a lot of it I don't understand, but 'Q- There Shall Bc No Night by Robert Sherwood, published by Charles Scribncfs Sons. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 what I wanted to ask you about most is the very end. Dr. Valkonen: What is at the end? Frank: 'How long, O Lord, before we shall hear the sound of the Seventh Angel of the Apocalypse? Have you forgotten the promise of St. John? 'And they shall see his face, and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there and they need no candle, neither light of the sung for the Lord giveth them light, and they shall reign forever and for ever.' How long O Lord before we shall be given to see the true revelation ?' Why did you conclude a scientific work with Biblical words -and what do you mean by the true revelation? Dr. Valkonen: It's the revealing to us of ourselves -of what we are-and what We may be ........ There is something profound in those words I have quoted. That unknown Jewish mystic who wrote that-somehow, uncon- sciously, he knew that man will ind the true name of God in his own forehead, in the mysteries of his own mind. 'And there shall be no night there.' That is the basis of all the work I have done. Frank: And how do you feel about that work now, Dr. Valkonen ? Dr. Valkonen: I think I've learned a great deal in the last few months. Research work in the field! I never dreamed I would have such a vast laboratory, with so many specimens. Ben: Have you arrived at any new conclusions, Doctor? Dr. Valkonen: Not conclusions, I'm afraid. Just- somewhat stronger suspicions. It is wonderful to see what men are capable of -what courage-what endurance- what utter lack of selfishness. And what a tragedy that these heroic qualities can be tested only by disease. That's what all this is, you know-disease. All of this-reason- less War-aimless revolution-it's a psychological epidemic. Scientists had seen it coming, for a long time, long before 1914, even. But we had no conception of its extent. And 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD now the very belief of men that they can insulate them- selves against it is in itself a sign of lunacy. The germs of that disease travel on the air waves. The only defenses are here-behind the forehead-I apologize, gentlemen, for carrying on a conversation which must be extremely boring to you. Gosden: 'Tm an ignorant man, sir. I haven't read this book. I didn't even know I was in the presence of any one who had written a book. But-from what you've said-I have a feeling it's all hopeless. I shouldn't care to die believing that. Dr. Valkonen: Then you won't die believing it's hopeless. That's the point, my friend. You have lived in faith-the light is in you-and it is the light which gives the strength that defeats death. It's only the fearful- the unbelieving-those who have sold themselves to the murderers and the liars-they are the only ones who can really die. Frank: But how can you deny that the light is go- ing out-it's going fast-everywhere? Dr. Valkonen: It is just beginning to burn with a healthy flame. I know this, because I have seen it. I have seen it in all kinds of men, of all races, and all varieties of faith. They are coming to consciousness. Look at all the millions of men now under arms, and all those that are fearful that arms may be thrust upon them. Are there any illusions of glory among any of them? None whatever! Isn't that progress ? Ben: Far be it from me to argue, Doctor-but I can't see the difference whether men go to war because of illusions of glory, or just in a spirit of grim resignation. Dr. Valkonen: There is all the difference. Because those illusions, when shattered, leave men hollow. When men lose their illusions, they say, 'Oh, what's the use? What have we got to live for?' They are devitalized by the conviction of futility. But grim resignation, as you cali it. that makes a man say, 'This is an evil job-but I TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 have to do it.' And when men say that, they are already beginning to ask, 'But why do I have to do it? Why must this evil go on forever?' And when men start asking questions, they are not satisfied until they find the answers. That is consciousness. And for the first time in history, consciousness is not just the privilege of a few secluded philosophers. It is free for all. For the first time, in- dividual men are fighting to know themselves-Forgive me, gentlemen. I forget myself. I think I am lecturing at the Medical Institute. But-the Russians are only a short distance away. This may be my last lecture. So- please permit me to finish .... Listen! What you hear now--this terrible sound that fills the earth-it is the death rattle. One may say easily and dramatically that it is the death rattle of civilization. But-I choose to believe differently. I believe it is the long deferred death rattle of the primordial beast. We have within ourselves the power to conquer bestiality, not with our muscles and our swords, but with the power of the light that is in our minds. What a thrilling challenge this is to all Science! To play its part in the ultimate triumph of evolution. To help speed the day when man becomes genuinely human, instead of the synthetic creature-part bogus angel, part actual brute-that he has imagined himself in the dark past ..... In those sentences there is surely, in telling words, a thrilling challenge to young men today: to know yourselves, the Kingdom of God that is within you. Make it a burn- ing desire to turn darkness into light, beginning with your- selves, working out in ever-widening circles. Make it more than a desire, make it your life, make it reality in your time. What was it Latimer called to Ridley when they were both being burned at the stake: Be of good cheer, Master Ridley, and play the man. We shall this day light such a candle by God's grace in England as I trust shall never 14 TRINITY OOLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD be put out. And they didg they lit a candle of righteous dealing and religious tolerance. After this struggle is over, such a candle of Godliness and Brotherhood must be lit, a candle that shall never be put out. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. 1-1 PEACE Peace is worthless unless it serves the cause of right- eousness. Peace which consecrates militarism is of small service. Peace obtained by crushing the liberty and life of just and unoffending peoples, is as cruel as the most cruel war. It should ever be our honourable effort to serve one of the country's most vital needs by doing all in our power to bring about conditions which will give some effective protection to weak or small nations which them- selves keep Order and act with justice toward the rest of mankind. There can be no higher international duty than to safeguard the existence and independence of industrious, orderly states, with a high personal and national standard of conduct, but without the military force of the great powers, states, for instance, such as Belgium, Switzerland, the Scandinavian countries, Uruguay, and others. A peace which left Belgium's wrongs unredressed and which did not provide against the recurrence of such wrongs as those from which she has suffered would not be a real peace . . . If I must choose between peace and righteousness, I choose righteousness. We must insist on righteousness first and foremost. We must strive for peace always, but we must never hesitate to put righteousness before peace. aTheodorc Roosevelt. From America and the World War. . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 IN MEMORIAM J. C. MAYNARD 1891-1940 The sudden deatl1 of Dr. J. C. Maynard C05-'09J on November 7th was a terrible shock to his hundreds of friends throughout Canada. Few men have been so widely admired and respected. Jack Maynard entered T.C.S. in September, 1905, and remained for four years. When he began his University of Toronto career in 1909 he left behind him at T.C.S. a reputation which will never be excelled. He left a similar name at the University. One of his school-mates describes him as conscientious, and that was one of his outstanding characteristics throughout his career. He threw himself, body, soul and spirit, into whatever undertaking he had in hand, and the energy of his intense concentration could be felt by those about him. At School he learnt the valuable art of self-discipline to an amazingly high degree, he came to know what was required of him, much more clearly than the average school-boy, in order to keep himself in the best of shape, mentally and physically. In the numerous accounts of the games he starred in, one thought is repeated again and again: 'Maynard was in the best of condition? 'Maynard never gets excited? 'Maynard was always in the game! 'Maynard plays great combination! 'Maynard knows all about the game? . . . conscientious self-discipline and con- centration. He was always in the game throughout his life, much more so than most people knew, and he played great combination. He was certainly one of the finest athletes Canada has ever known. At T.C.S. he and Peter Campbell began their famous passing rims on the football field, outwitting and out-manoeuvring their opponents time after time. He 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD was also a beautiful kicker and a fearless and deadly tackler. Quick thinking, always sizing up his opponents, he would know whether to return the kick, run with it, or pass the ball to a team-mate. The team of 1908 won all its games, due principally to the Campbell-Maynard com- bination. Their broken-field runs became the talk of the schools and when they went to Varsity they became the talk of the football world. For many hundreds of middle- aged football fans, the clearest and most lasting impres- sion of the games at the old Varsity stadium consists of Maynard with his white ankle bandages running and pass- ing down the field with Peter Campbell. If Maynard was off with a sprained ankle and the team was in difficulties, back he would go and immediately the spark was felt, giving drive and heart to the whole teamg usually he or Peter Campbell went over for a touch a few moments later, and then Jack Maynard would be taken out to rest his ankle. He did not play hockey at Varsity because he knew that he had to study to keep up with his medical course, but at T.C.S. he was an extraordinarily fine player. He was considered the best skater, a clever stick handler and a deadly shot. In cricket he was an excellent fielder and a steady bat. On Sports Day he would win most of the races and he was a member of the Oxford Cup Team. Although he concentrated all his mental and physical energy in his games, Jack Maynard was a real sportsman and knew how to take a beating, chin up and a twinkle in his eye, You were too good for us, but we'll be better next time. He was not only an athlete, he was that ideal but rather rare combination of a brilliant athlete and an ex- ceedingly good student. He never failed any examina- tions and he usually managed to obtain honours in his School or University career despite the time he gave to games. Again it was his ability to make every minute count, and to concentrate every ounce of his mental and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 physical make-up on the task in hand, which spelt victory and success for him over and over again. He was a triple color, captain of the football team, and a Prefectg if there had been another bronze medal, Jack Maynard would have won it. He entered the faculty of medicine at the University in September, 1909, and graduated in 1913. While at Varsity he won undying fame as a football player, playing three years on the team, and captaining it twice, two of those three teams won the Dominion Championship. After graduation he spent a year as an interne and when war broke out in 1914 he enlisted immediately in the 48th Highlanders. He served with great distinction throughout the War, being promoted to the post of Deputy Assistant Director of Medical Services for the 4th Cana- dian Division. He was medical officer of the 48th until his death. He was elected to the Governing Body in 1925, and despite the constant calls on his time he gave the School his devoted attention, being of the greatest assistance on many occasions. He was coming to us on November 15th to spend the weekend and speak on the Profession of Medicine, but death intervened. It was peculiarly fitting that his last visit to a foot- ball dressing-room was when he rushed down to look after a T.C.S. lad in the Varsity Stadium dressing-room after the Ridley game on November 2nd, Jack Maynard made friends at every turn because of his utterly unselfish interest in people, and his whole- hearted wish to be of help in any way possible. At the same time he was absolutely honest in thought, word and deed, and people always knew just where he stood. For his family, for the School, and for many hundreds of his friends, a strong support has gone but his memory will be an inspiration to those who knew him. His loss will be hard to bear, and our deepest sympathy goes out to his family, especially his son now overseas in the Navy, and his daughter at home. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD TRIBUTES From One of His School-Mates Jack did not take long to find his athletic feet after arriving at T.C.S. and he was soon a member of the 1st Football, Hockey and Cricket teams as well as taking the 1ion's share of cups in the School's sports. It was in 1908 that the famous football combination of Maynard and Campbell had its start, and their running- passing plays had a great deal to do with our winning the football championship that year. Jack was a conscientious athlete, he believed in strict training when engaged in sports. During his time at the School, I never saw him smoke. Because of his skill at sports, he was in great demand and was never too busy to help the junior teams with their signals and plays. As a hockey player, he also was outstanding, being a splendid skater and beautiful stick-handlerg if hockey had been what it is today, Jack could also have made a great name on the ice. He played little hockey at the University, in- stead his time was taken up with studies. With his pass- ing has gone one who not only could play at sport but who also knew the meaning of 'playing the game'. His last long run is over His final goal line passed. From the Toronto Evening Telegram Thirty years ago Dr. Maynard made football history with the University of Toronto, intercollegiate champions from 1910 to 1913. He was captain of the team for two years, in 1911 and 1913. In 1911 the Varsity team, cap- tained by Dr. Maynard, went on to win the Dominion title. That was the year Varsity defeated the powerful Toronto Argonauts at Varsity Qtadium before 16,000 persons. Stars of that brilliant game were Dr. Maynard, Elliott Green and Pete Campbell.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 Jack Maynard started his college football career in 1910 as a member of Hughie Gall's Varsity team of that year which defeated Hamilton for the Canadian champion- ship. Jack Maynard was one of the most outstanding half- backs Canada ever produced, Dr. Smirle Lawson, chief coroner and one-time Varsity football star, said. His zig- zag runs down Varsity fields will be remembered as long as football is played. He was an outstanding physician whose services were sought, not only in Toronto, but in many points through- out the province. His early death will be a great shock to his many friends throughout the cotmtry. He was a wonderful friend to a legion of people. All-round athlete, Dr. Maynard starred at football, hockey and cricket. A native of Stratford, he made athletic history at Trinity College School, being with the T.C.S. team that won the Little Big Four football championship in 1908. He also played in the Canadian army football league overseas. Editorial from the Toronto Globe and Mail Dr. John C. Uackl Maynard, who passed to the Be- yond recently, was undoubtedly one of the greatest football stars who ever performed on a Canadian gridiron. But he was much more than that: As a soldier and a physician he set a high standard for Canadian citizenship. After a brilliant university career, during which he cap- tained the University of Toronto team that won the Dominion football championship, he risked all in defense of his country. The outbreak of the Great War found him in the ranks of the 48th Highlanders, who withstood the full force of the first gas attack and marched out of the trenches at St. Julien with only a remnant of one of the finest regi- ments that ever left Toronto. It had met and defeated 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Huns in their most fiendish fury. But in doing so the 48th lost 691 officers and men out of 896. The survivors were choking from the poisonous fumes of chlorine gas. Dr. Maynard so distinguished himself in France that he was promoted to the staff of the 4th Canadian Division and later became its Deputy Assistant Director of Medical Services. He maintained his interest in military affairs and Was medical officer of his old regiment from the end of the Great War until the day of his death. The fine record he established in the field of sport, in the defense of his coun- try and as a physician and public spirited citizen was an inspiration to the younger generation. His only son, an honour graduate of the University of Toronto in mathema- tics, already is a sub-lieutenant in the Canadian Navy. The surviving members of his family may take comfort from the knowledge that their grief is shared by a great host of Canadians who recognize that Dr. Jack Maynard gave all that he had to his fellows and pay sincere homage to his memory. i From P. G. Campbell Peter G. Campbell C07-'09J writes: There is so much good one could say about Jack that it would be impossible to make any attempt to cover much ground. The sincerest tribute is just a great fellow gone . He was brilliant as a doctor, most of his patients being more or less personal friends-which included a great many T.C.S. old boys-and their families. He was always ready to make a call at any time and I think it was Owing to his devotion to these patients that his over work finally caught up with him and brought on the heart attack which he died from. Everybody connected with the School knew what an athlete he was in all games and field sports. There is one outstanding effort he performed that I will never forget. It was in the Oxford Cup Race back around 1907 or 8. Be- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21 fore the race we used to inspect the course, opening holes in the fences and finding out the easiest running paths in the fields, etc. Finally we came to the hill before the first marker and he figured out that we could run under the hill and save a lot of time and save us a lot instead of running over the hill. Mr. Morris used to be, for many years, the marker at these cross roads. We then tossed to see who was to lead the upper fiat team over the hill. Jack lost the toss so as soon as the rest started he set a fast pace with the upper fiat following. The remaining four of us lagged behind and then ducked under the hill and were way down the Ravenscourt road when the Upper flat passed the marker. The point of this story is that Jack made up the time and extra distance and finished second to Eric Ings of Calgary. I have never met anybody who did not think he was a grand person and his sudden passing brings a loss to hundreds of us. I hope all the boys at the School will be as keen old boys and take as much interest in the School as Jack Maynard did. G. C. BURBIDGE 1892-1940 Born May 15th., 1892, at Ottawa, he was the son of the late Mr. Justice George Wheelock Burbidge of the Ex- chequer Court of Canada and of the late Mrs. Burbidge. He was educated at Ashbury College, Ottawa, and at Trinity College School, Port Hope. On completing his education he joined the staff of the Merchants Bank in Winnipeg, where he was stationed until his enlistment with the Fort Garry Horse on the outbreak of the Great War in August, 1914. He proceeded with that unit to England and in March, 1915, reverted to a lower rank in order to transfer to Lord Strathcona's Horse. He was posted to the 10th Batta- lion, C.E.F., in July, 1915, as a lieutenant and promoted 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to the rank of captain in October, 1916. After qualifica- tion with distinction at the Staff College, Camberley, he was attached to headquarters, 2nd Canadian Infantry Brigade, and was seconded to the War Office for special duty in January, 1918. He was chosen then for service on a secret mission to the Near East, in which Iield his administrative qualities proved so valuable he was appointed administrator of Hamadan. He completed service on the strength of the Alberta Regimental Depot. Mentioned in despatches in June, 1917, he was award- ed the Military Cross a month later. On returning to Canada, Major Burbidge rejoined the Merchants Bank and later became associated with the Bank of Montreal. In 1924 he entered the life insurance business and was general agent at Windsor, Ottawa and Montreal. He came to Montreal in 1928. Particularly active for the welfare of Canada's vet- erans, Major Burbidge was in charge of the troops on one of the ships in the Vimy Pilgrimage convoy and later has been commandant and secretary-treasurer of the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires. He was also a member of the Sir Arthur Currie Branch of the Canadian Legion. SUB-LIEUTENANT G. H. K. STRATHY, R.C.N.V.R. Extracts from the London Times, 22nd. and 26th, Oct., 1940 A correspondent writes:- It will be a great grief to those who knew him at Charterhouse to read of the death of Pat Strathy, who was killed while serving in H.M.S. Ajax in the recent action in the Mediterranean. A born mathematician and physicist, he had a fine career at Toronto University, where he gain- ed a scholarship on leaving Charterhouse. Then, instead of carrying on in Canada on academic research, he joined the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve for special radio TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 duties a few months ago. He came over to this country full of enthusiasm for his work, and eager to join in the struggle. He was one who loathed crueltyg he was a fine friend with a sense of humour which will always live in my memory. Whether he was on a school visit to the East End Mission or up in an aeroplane or in the laboratory, he was absorbing the' essentials of any problems and analysing them in his clear-sighted way. Canada and Eng- land have lost one who would have, and has, served them Well, but there are many over here who have lost a great friend. J. C. M. writes:- I should like at this time to pay a brief tribute to a personal friend, Sub-Lieutenant Pat Strathy, R.C.N.V.R., who recently lost his life in the victorious action of H.M.S. Ajax in the Mediterranean. He graduated only this May in mathematics and physics from the University of Tor- onto with one of the most brilliant records of recent times. He was happy in combining aggressive practical skill with the faculty of agile reasoning, his successes in scholarships were many and varied, some being of international char- acter. I R. A.

The School and the boys concerned are deeply grateful to the Old Boys in the United States who have so thoughtfully and generously contributed to this fund. T.C.S. Adopts a Destroyer The School had adopted a destroyer in the Royal Canadian Navy. The vessel chosen is H.M.C.S. Saguenay. Admiral Nelles once commanded the Saguenay and Lieut. John Annesley is serving in her at present. Parcels of gifts will be sent to his ship from time to time. Magazines and light reading matter seem to be especially in demand. Any contributions will be gratefully received by the committee of which Mr. P. H. Lewis is chairman. It is hoped that the other Canadian destroyers will be similarly adopted by our sister schools. Hallowe'en Party On Thursday evening, October 31st, the annual Hallowe'en Party was held for the New Boys. First an obstacle race was held between the representatives of the two Houses. From over benches, around bars and under mats the Bethune House New Boys emerged victorious while those in the gallery shouted themselves hoarse. The second years arrayed in distinctive colours C'?J then took on the New Boys and, amid much cheering and booing, won by a head's length. The obstacle race was followed by ducking for apples in the pool and again the Bethune House New Boys won. Is it possible that Mr. Scott was at a loss for an answer in the Common Room the next morning? Then followed a treasure hunt and refreshments, served in the Hall for the whole School, brought the even- ing to a close. 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Football Dinner This year the football dinner was held at the Lodge on Saturday evening, November 23rd. Members of this year's Bigside, and the Captains and Vice-Captains of Middleside and Littleside were invited. About thirty boys sat down to a very delicious meal, that was followed by a toast, proposed by the Headmaster, to the team of 1940. Mr. Dixon and Wally Duggan then thanked the mem- bers of Bigside for their co-operation throughout the sea- son. Tlfrough the kindness of Charles Burns football pic- tures Were shown in the Hall at 8.30 for those at the dinner and any others who wished to attend. A very enjoyable evening was spent by all, and it is generally agreed that the dinner, though lacking in some of the fine, but unnecessary, pieces of rhetoric, was much more pleasant than in former years when it has been held in the Hall. Football Trip On Saturday, November 23rd, on the invitation of the Headmaster, the Prefects, Captain and Coach of the Rugby squad went to Toronto to see what turned out to be the Argonauts' final game of the season. It was a great game to watch, even though some of the plays did seem to be stolen from the School's First Team. Cadet Corps Equipment The Department of National Defence called in all our Ross Rifles in October, but Mr. Scott got to work as usual and very soon turned out 150 most satisfactory dummy rifles. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 Captain Murray's Talk On Wednesday, October 23rd, Captain L. W. Murray of the Royal Canadian Navy visited the School. In the evening Captain Murray spoke to the School on the work of the Canadian Navy and afterwards kindly consented to answer further questions of those who wished to stay be- hind. A large number of boys availed themselves of this privilege. Captain Murray is the senior Canadian officer aiioat and was formerly the Deputy Chief of Naval Staff. He is also a member of the Joint Defence Board. The School is greatly indebted to Captain Murray for an extremely in- teresting evening. Skiers' Visit On Sunday evening, October 27th, Hans Falkner and Fritz Gadner visited the School and brought with them some coloured films on skiing. Mr. Falkner is the ski in- structor at Mount Tremblay and Mr. Gadner is the in- structor at Grey Rock's Inn, Quebec, both are refugees from Austria and now own a farm near Port Hope. The pictures showed the correct way to do the various types of turns and stops, and included many scenes familiar to the Laurentian skier. Mr. Falkner then gave some practical instruction in ski exercises. The School is deeply grateful to Mr. Falkner and Mr. Gadner for their very interesting and instructive talk. Mr. Gadner was formerly the Ski Champion of Austria and Switzerland. Refugee Fund On Wednesday evening, November 26th., Mr. Arthur Sullivan gave a talk in the Chapel, about the refugee prob- lem in England. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD He told how these evacuees, separated from their mothers, coming from all over England, were having such a hard time adapting themselves. In his appeal he reminded us that these children need- ed personal presents, and that the Red Cross and other organizations, which were doing such valiant work to re- lieve the situation, were in desperate need of funds. To aid this cause the School contributed 830.25 in a special collection taken up in Chapel on Sunday, Dec. lst. Talk on Indians On Thursday, November 28th, Mr. T. A. Kidd of the Royal Ontario Museum gave a very interesting address illustrated with lantern slides, on the Indians of Ontario. Mr. Kidd said that the first inhabitants of Ontario were the Algonquins, but, later on, the Iroquois from Georgia moved north and pushed the Algonquins north. Mr. Kidd showed lantern slides of arrowheads and bowls, as well as an Indian long house, and towards the end of the speech, passed around specimens of a stone axe head, a curved chisel for hollowing out canoes and arrow heads. He spoke of the federation of Iroquois tribes, the first federal government on the continent and stated that the Iroquois attacked the Algonquins because the latter refused to join the federation. To the Iroquois, those who were not friends were foes. Visit to Trenton On the kind invitation of Group Captain Sully, the Prefects, Seniors and two Sixth Form Privileges paid a visit to Trenton Air Force Station on Wednesday after- noon, November 20th. The party was shown the hangars and the various types of training aeroplanes used there and also had the chance of seeing a Fairy Battle close up. Many had the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 opportunity to try their hand in a Link trainer. Wally Duggan gave an excellent performance of nose dives and tail spins. A short trip was then taken by most of the party after they had signed their waivers, releasing the Government from any responsibility, just like signing away your life. Two Lockheed aircraft 'were used. As the plane set off, the occupants were of mixed feelings. Many had never been up in the air before, and were a little doubtful as to the result. After circling over the countryside, the plane rose still further until it was above the clouds, the latter making a beautiful sight in the brilliant sunshine. The trip was one that will not easily be forgotten. The School is indebted to Group Captain Sully, and his oiicers and men for their great kindness. The Music Library Our library of classical records is beginning to need additions very badly. A number of records are Worn out through constant use and a few have been cracked or broken. The original gift of reproducer and records was made by Mrs Law of Montreal, and it is impossible to put in Words the pleasure which it has given to many members of the School. Masters' Publications Articles by Mr. A. H. Humble and Dr. R. G. Glover have appeared in recent numbers of The School . Dr. Glover also had an article in the autumn Queen's Quarter- ly. 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T.C.S. COLOURS At meetings held during the Michaelmas term, 1940, after much discussion, the recommendations made by the sub-committee appointed last summer were accepted in most respects. With changes suggested and approved, these new arrangements can now be considered to have been adopted for use in the School. General Statement Colours for games and other sports are to recognize skill and keeenness in the game or athletic exercise, and hence to reward the player for his contribution to the active life of the School. A colour is an award for extra merit and all players cannot necessarily expect to receive such recognition. Types of Award There are four kinds of award now in force:- 1. The wearing of Bigside uniform, 2. Inclusion in the team photograph, 3. The award of Colours, 4. 'I'he Distinction Cap. 1.

DISTINCTION CAPS The highest grade of award shall be a Distinction Cap for those games in which a full colour is awarded. For sports usually receiving only a half colour, this award will take the form of a full first colour. The award shall be made on the basis of consistent distinguished performance on a first team. It shall be awarded by the Colour Committee, candidates under con- sideration being absent, on recommendation by the proper Games Committee. Insignia: a. Games with full first colours: a distinction cap. b. Games with half colours: a full lirst colour, entitling the recipient to tie, large crest, V-neck jersey with appropriate numeral or badge. 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD GENERAL CONDITIONS The numerals and insignia of any Littleside colour shall not be present on any jersey or sweater bearing any crest other than the Littleside crest. Similarly, only numerals and badges of Middleside rank or value shall be worn with the Middleside crest. For Half Colours and First Colours, crests and num- erals must be of corresponding value. The crest for First Colours is a monogram T.C.S. seven and one-quarter inches high. The crest for Half Colours is a similar monogram, 'five and five-eighths inches high. The Middleside crest is a simplified Gothic T, six inches high. The Littleside crest is a Roman T, Iive and one-eighth inches high. Middleside and Littleside crests are worn on an all- white V-neck jersey. STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE'S CONCLUSIONS A committee composed of the Headmaster, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Dixon and J. W. C. Langmuir was appointed in the spring of 1940 to go into the whole question of colours and their awards. It was felt that changes should be made to simplify and reduce the number of colour awards. There was also the necessity of considering the introduction of new games and sports. In the team games, the School normally plays outside games from groups chosen from the old divisions of Big- side, Middleside and Littleside. It was thought advisable to discontinue the use of such phrases as fifth team , since hardly ever is there a fourth team . Only the groups Bigside, Middleside and Littleside will be recognized in future, and the last is to be regarded as an under-age group fapproximately fifteen yearsl. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 The use of a half colour has been introduced to take care of players on Bigside not good enough for a full first colour, and also as the usual award in such games as squash, Where play is more or less individual and not in a team. Should the need arise, half colours will be con- sidered for swimming, skiing, etc. Colours will only be awarded for good play. Numerals as part of the colour will be retained for team games only. To indicate the various individual sports, a badge will be used-a runner for Oxford Cup, rackets for squash, etc. We hope Old Boys will not be too conservative in reading of these changes, which are introduced after many long meetings and discussions. -P.H.L. G. F. Crum 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD House Notes' BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES Once again the Editor has sent out a call for House Notes, and once again we have to dig up all the scandal of the School that can pass the censorship of Will Hayes, the Publications Act, etcetera. The Burroughs Hotel ftherein lies another storyl has been functioning more grandly and gloriously than ever. We have collected most of the cups which so far have been competed for,--that is, we did miss one,-the Oxford Cup. Brent House never fails to get in its plug niclf:el's worth about that. But it also fails to see that The Hotel enters for the glory, not for the mere reward. Some Brents are actually proud of winning the cup. All we say is, any fool can rung it takes a real man to stop and face the mob that's chasing him. Both the Middleside and Littleside rugby cups have come to perch on the Bethune shelves, as well as the Kick- ing, Catching and Passing Cup, won by LeMesurier for the House. 'We also claim possession of the only night-shirt fall wool. preshrunk, 331.98 at Eaton'sJ in the School. Bethune has a master who can even prove that because the sub- junctive 1 it was a French classl is disappearing in the English language, the whole English-speaking race is gradually going insane. And it takes a mighty man to prove that one! To get back to those cups,-there's one thing that's beginning to worry the enlightened ones of Bethune. We are rather afraid that, by the end of the year, we will have a vulgar display of silverware such as may be found on the shclvcs of a Certain House. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 May the Fates smile upon us, that we may continue after quality instead of quantity. Let us hope The Hotel will continue to boost the prestige of the School, and to make up for the shortcom- ings of our unfortunate neighbours. BRENT HOUSE NOTES If one were to look on the opposite page he would probably see, under the heading Bethune House Notes, an advertisement extolling the merits of The Burroughs Hotel. Accompanying this advertisement would perhaps be the following list of personnel: Proprietor .............,.................. .......... D r. R. G. Glover Manager ................,..... ............. C . I. P. Ttate Chief Bell-boy .......... ....... J . W. Duncanson House Detective .......................... ........ A . B. C. German Janitor ....,.................................................,........... C. M. Somerville Efficiency Is Our Key-Word Someone in Brent suggested that A Gross Exaggera- tion might be a suitable title for this advertisement. Contrary to general expectations the matter of the overwhelming Brent victory in the Oxford Cup Race will not be harped upon. Suffice it to say that Brent captured the first ive places tout of tenl, and to let the readers draw their own conclusions. A certain boy of the other house, one of the Bethune House Prefects, typified the spirit of Bethune the other day when he crawled on hands and knees across the play- ing-fields to the tuck-shop. Bethune always seems to be in the mud! For the general good of the School, Brent very gen- erously decided to try and ameliorate this spirit by letting Bethune win the Littleside and Middleside House games by a negligible margin. This was done by raising the good 38 TRINITY coLLEGE scHooL RECORD football players of Brent from Middleside to Bigside, and those on Littleside to Middleside. Bethune employed the antithesis of this procedure in importing Middleside play- ers to Littleside. A The Duggan brothers, Wal and Brod, were responsible for the addition of several new feathers to Brent's hat. Broddy came within an acc of winning the Kicking, Catch- ing and Passing Cup and was elected vice-captain of Hoc- key. Wally, besides being the leader of that popular band, Fletcher Duggan and the Boysn, was awarded the cup for the most valuable player on Bigside for 1940. He was captain of Football and was recently elected captain of Hockey. Incidentally R.B. Jr. is this year's Head Prefect. Everybody is sure that he will do a swell job in training a promising lot of New Boys. With this con- clusion Brent looks forward to a promising year. P. Hare. TRINITY OOLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 J 5 Co trib tions se TO THE LAST ROUND fThe Story of Any Rearguard at Dunkirk, For ten days, they had been shoving along just in front of the German advance. It was June 7, and the Welsh Fusiliers, under acting Colonel Lee, were marching for Dunkirk, not fleeing, but marching to the tune of bursting bombs, and the roar of a dive-bomber's engine, mingled with the chatter of the Bren gun. Progress was slow, as the roads were choked with refugees, foot-sore and weary, plodding on as if in a nightmare. Finally, Dunkirk was reached, and the Tommys' spirit began to rise with the thought of safety in England. As the regiment drew near a place where the men could wade out to a ship, a motorcycle approached. The rider had orders for Lee to take one hundred men and equipment to defend a road leading into town from the north-east. Five minutes later, Colonel Lee marched his squad of volunteers away, while the remainder of the regiment pro- ceeded to the beach. Three miles up the road, he found a place that could be held for some time by a small force of men. There was a large old house, with a command- ing view of the road, and a small wood extended right to the other side of the road. Leaving some seventy men in the woods, with rifles, an anti-tank gun, and a Bren gun, the Colonel took thirty 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD men with rifles and a Bren gun to the house. Here, they barricaded the windows and doors which they would not be using, and soon the house had been transformed into a fortress. Twenty minutes later, a German force of about five thousand men drew near. But the British held their fire. In front was a motor lorry, with the ammunition and supplies. Not till the column was half-way up the hill did Lee give the order to fire. The Germans were taken completely by surprise. Their lorry was hit with one shot from the anti-tank gun. Their ranks folded under the withering fire of two Bren guns and a rifle barrage, and they were forced to fall back to the foot of the hill. From the house, the men saw a German despatch-rider hasten down the road. What are they going to do now ? was the common thought in the little garrison. The answer came in a matter of minutes. Through the smoke and haze of the sky came the roar of an airplane engine. This was followed by a tense interval, while all the men were waiting to see if it was the R.A.F. or a '4Jerry . Without waiting to see, the oflicer in charge of the Bren gun lifted it, and with one of his men, took it out behind the house. By that time, the plane had arrived. It was a Ju 87 dive-bomber. On seeing its target, it wheeled and started to climb. As it rolled into the dive, it was met by a withering hail of bullets from every position. It never pulled out, as the controls had been hit. With a terrific crash it ploughed into the ground behind the house, exploding its bombs and destroying the Bren gun and its crew, as well as a section of the house. There wasn't much ammunition left now. But the soldiers were going to hold off the Germans as long as they could, so that their comrades would be able to embark for England. Suddenly the Germans attacked, but were thrown back temporarily with the few remaining rounds of ammunition. Now the only weapons left were bayonets. s The minutes TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 dragged on. Still no attack came. Do the enemy realize the situation '? was the thought of every man there. They were bound to come soon. They came in waves, shortly afterwards, rushing the house and woods. The little band of Welsh Fusiliers rushed out to meet them, brandishing bayonets and any other weapons they possessed. Most of them were killed, but they did their duty, and so saved the lives of thousands of soldiers at Dunkirk. -P.G.D. BRITISH BASES FOR AMERICAN WARSHIPS Britain's momentous exchange of bases in her posses- sions in the Americas for fifty over-age American de- stroyers is an international arrangement of great import- ance today. Roosevelt's opponents claimed that he should have consulted Congress before making this exchange, but Roosevelt realized that Britain needed the destroyers imme- diately, and that to consult Congress would mean a lot of red tape and lost time. The most important fact about this historical exchange is that the United States will now be able to protect the Panama Canal from the Atlantic Ocean. The advanced bases will give her a better patrol area in the Atlantic, and in case of Nazi invasion, a better area for offensive action and defense. The Pacific ocean has many bases, but the Atlantic has always been America's weak point. The bases extend from Newfoundland across Bermuda, the Bahamas, Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia, Trinidad, to British Guiana. Of prime importance also is the fact that Britain has lost many of her destroyers, and the acquisition of the fifty destroyers will enable her convoy system to work more smoothly. More British children will be able to find safety abroad, and more food and war materials will be able to 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD come to the aid of Britain. The British will have more safety in the English channel, and the possibility of Nazi invasion will be greatly lowered. Hitler is already disturbed by this exchange, and he has made the boastful threat that the destroyers will arrive too late to be of any use to Britain. If Britain can con- tinue to hold out against Nazi terrorism until the fifty de- stroyers arrive, we shall know that Hitler's strength is not what he claims it to be, and Britain will have Won one step in her nightmarish battle. The Nazis, too, must be greatly disturbed. They Want to finish this war before the United States can interfere, and they consider this move as the iirst American step to- wards war. It has made them increase the fury of their brutal bombings, in the hope of hnishing quickly their luftkrieg. They cannot fail to remember what happened the last time America entered the war, and they don't want it to happen again. The relations between Great Britain and the United States have been made more friendly and lasting by the exchange, and Americans have increased their War effort as they have begun to realize that A friend in need is a friend indeed . -J.

Mr. Jim Mathews was in the inspector's office when a very young and beautiful girl was brought in, in company with two very disrespectable men, whom she obviously re- sented. The officer in charge of them enlightened us about this rather unusual proceeding, in a very abrupt and puzzling manner. It appeared that one of the three had stolen S100,000 worth of jewels, but they could not be found, and there was incriminating evidence against all of them. As I was in no hurry, merely waiting for an assign- ment from. the F.B.I., the inspector asked me to stay and see what I could make of the case. He also wanted to look into it. The evidence on the case, when all summed up, was as follows:- lst. suspect:-Miss Marion Andrews, 44 Chestnut St. Following data known :-Miss Andrews was found walking through the lane into which the jeweler's store Window opened. She had a cut finger on the left hand. Miss Andrews informed us that she had cut her finger when she was walk- ing along the street. She said that she had cut it on a stone wall with glass fragments in the cement on top and was hurrying home through the lane to disinfect it. 2nd. suspect:-Mr. John Barrows, 531 Abbe St., owner of the jewelry store. Following data known:-Mr. Burrows. it appears, dis- covered the theft. As he walked in, he said, he heard the burglar escape through the back window. He called the police and directed them to the lane. Mr. Barrows owed money but could not meet his pay- ments. He had been heard to say he would soon have to burn his store to meet his debts. Since his store and jewelry were insured he could easily accomplish thisg but his dingy reputation led us to believe he might have stolen the jewels himself in order to resell them and so not lose anything. 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REOORD 3rd, suspect:-Mr. Joe Murphy, back alley man. Following data known:-Found, with glass cutter and other implements commonly associated with thieves, in the alley near the store. The theft evidently had been done by only one person. I asked permission to look over the store. In the mean- time the suspects had to be set free. The store showed the usual signs-broken glass and small pieces of jewelry stolen. The back window had been opened but the show cases had been broken by a chair. I noticed one unusual thing. A mirror had been broken and on the glass was a small speck of blood evidently over- looked. There was a wastebasket upset over in one cornerg from the signs it had been kicked there after the mirror had been broken. In it were bits of glass and the jewels under some paper all put carefully away in a leather bag. They must have been dropped into the basket, judging by the position of the paper. From the signs I concluded that the burglar was superstitious because he or she must have broken the glass with the left side of their body and one generally carries a bag in One's right hand. The cut on the girl's finger was on the left hand. Evidently she must have broken the mirror, turned and seen it, dropped the bag of jewels, which she had been in no haste collecting, for they were all wrapped up, and fled: but how to convict her? The inspector had the three suspects brought to his office, and there I told them a long theoretical story and indicated that they would be set free. I broke a mirror accidently, then innocently and in a friendly manner asked if any of them were superstitious. To which all answered negatively. I then offered them all a cigarette, lighting the girl's third, on the same match. She immediately showed fright and refused. I accused her suddenly of the crime, and of her lie about superstition. She was naturally off her guard after being told she would go free. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 She broke down under the strain and the sudden shock of being accused of the crime, and confessed. It appeared that she was working in a crime school and had to make a living somehow. ----.---.-- -E.'1'.s. AN INSULT It slipped out in a moment of anger, it was a nasty word that I could never take back. I was having an argu- ment, of negligible importance, with my friend, when it became heated, I had an outburst of anger, and against my better judgment I called him a name which I would rather not repeat here. The consequences of that out- burst have been many, and of a varied nature, but they have all been extremely unpleasant. My friend became a stranger. Whenever we met, we were markedly polite to each other, and the few times when it was necessary for us to talk to each other, we took great pains to make our conversations as short and to the point as possible, dis- missing each other as soon as we could. It was a very strained condition, one which brought a great deal of un- happiness to both parties. It is characteristic of human nature to stand up for something we have said, whether we are right or wrong. This fault in me made our overpoliteness change to rude- ness. In an effort to make my mistake seem right, I com- mitted the unpardonable offence of talking behind his back. It was easy to do, but hard to undo. One thing led to another, and before we knew it we were openly insulting each other in no uncertain terms. Now that our personal argument had become public, our friends began to take sides, we made many enemies, and there was much hard feeling, as a result of that one needless Word that escaped me. This state of affairs could not continue, so, swallow- ing my pride, I begged his pardon, happily he accepted my apologies and the unbearable situation was over. -J.

On both sides of the road lay peaceful but brown and dreary farms, waiting for the long winter months to set in. Jim was the only person in sight when he started on his work--it gave him no one to talk to, and made his existence pretty lonely. His thoughts were all he had to pass the time with.

I woke up at the clanging of a bell. Two long and three short bells repeated three times! What could they be for? Slowly my sleepy brain associated them with a faded yellow paper on my door. However, as the power had been turned off already for some four hours, I had to fumble for my flashlight so as to be able to read the notice. It said something to the effect that I was to turn right and go down the first stairs. Arousing my dormant room- mates from their heavy slumbers, which had not been dis- turbed by the horrid bells, I informed them of the fact that some part of our habitation must be burning, and passionately hoping that it was Brent, we slipped on our dressing gowns and slippers, and rushed downstairs. There our interest died immediately. For outside there was no roaring blaze, but instead a complacent headmaster and ia fire prevention warden. -J. R. del R.

The money you've spent on me is well spent I'm sure, because I've learned so many useful things. I have acquired the power to concentrate and work hard at what I know is my duty. Naturally however, to relieve the tediousness of school routine, I now and then like to break the bounds of studious habit, and have a little fun, without which school life would be horribly unbearable. Fun however, always involves some expense. A show and something to eat cost, on the average, about sixty cents. Taking into con- sideration the fact that this is a necessary relief expense, and that my allowance is a quarter a week, you can see for yourself that I'll never break my monotonous school life without some slight financial assistance. Quite natur- ally I turn to my friends, but as I cannot repay them, I find myself in an unpleasant position. What I need is iinancial assistance from a friend who doesn't require being paid back. Now Dad, I'm turning to my best friend, one whom I trust and believe in. All I need is five dollars to keep my life here from becoming unbearable. As you've helped me before, I feel confident that you'll help me again. Thanking you for everything you have already done for me, I remain, your loving son, Archibald. -Diplomat. 1 VI Form Paranomasia Cricket practice is full of Grace. it IW Q i 1 Those who break rules in Brent House seldom get off Scott-free.

Bigside, this year. did not break any records. There is no real reason Why it should be remembered as the great 1940 squad. It played nine games and Won five of them. Not an imposing record. However, the season must be classified as a successful one. When you have twelve boys who can come from be- hind to win a gameg who, as a group, can forget and for- give the lapses and mistakes which normally would break the heart of an average team: Who, through lack of ex- perience, made sufficient blunders in one game to lose several and yet balanced these with enough doggedness and brilliance to wing who would not admit defeat: then you do have a football team to be remembered. Such was Bigside of 1940. Unquestionably, the loss of two halfbacks, of the calibre of Somerville and Holton i., through leg injuries, marred the team's chances for an outstanding season. Their loss cannot be minimized. The interest shown on the part of the Old Boys in this year's squad was most inspiring. Particular mention must be made of Mr. Charles Burns and Mr. Peter Camp- bell. These gentlemen spent much valuable time with Bigside and were thoughtful enough to have Mr. Ted Reeve. 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the Well-known coach and sports authority, speak to the team on several occasions. The School is grateful to them. Singling out stars on a football team is not our usual practice. Two boys do stand out however. Duggan ii. was the driving force behind the squad and it would not be a pleasant picture to visualize the team's efficiency without him. He, very definitely, was the spark plug . Jones i. was undoubtedly the defensive star, being in on the majority of the tackles both behind the line and down field. These boys have been granted Distinction Caps and richly deserve them. THE TEAM DUGGAN, W. R.-Captain and quarterback. Second year on team. Wal's contribution cannot be evaluated too highly. A determined leader who set a high team-mates to great heights. An good quarterback, a fme passer, in fact, an all-round footballer. JONES, A. R. C.-Vice-Capt. Second year with the team. Arch. played middle wing on the offense and centre secondary on the defense. The outstanding centre secondary the School has had in recent years. Rugged, fast and a deadly tackler. BERKINSHAW-First year-middle wing. Rangy and fast, Berk displayed grand spirit but lacked ex- perience. CALDWELL-First year-outside wing. A good tackler, very aggressive and a fair pass receiver. The Fish kept the squad in good spirits with his good natured- ness. DUGGAN, R. B.-First year-snap on the offense and middle wing on defense. A most reliable snap-back. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD His kicking some times excellent helped the squad im- measurably when Somerville, the regular kicker, was injured. DUNCANSON-First year-inside wing. Dune lacked experience but balanced this by his keen interest and hard work. , DRAPER-First year-inside wing. A rugged type of player who delighted in the heavy going. Bill sup- plied several new ideas this year, e.g. his coiffure necessitated the water boy carrying a comb and he guaranteed a cheering section at every game. FLEMING-First year. Bull played a strong game at inside wing and was a tower of strength defensively. He should be very good next year. GERMAN-First year-outside wing. A reliable player. who, though not brilliant, was full of pluck and Work- ed hard. HART-First year-half-back. J. O. is very fast and was the School's best offensive threat both through the line and around the end. HOPE-First year. Rather inexperienced, but showed grand spirit and was a very useful half-back. LAMBERT-First year-outside wing. Syd. tackled very well and was a fair pass receiver. He was in on every play, but owing to his slight build, he took more than his share of bumps. LeMESURIER-First year-half-back. Rosie was the best pass receiver on the team. Very fast and one of the outstanding defensive half-backs in the Little Big Four, should be an excellent player next year. SOMERVILLE-Second year-half-back. A steady punter and quite fast. Had the bad luck to experience a leg injury which kept him out of the last two games. 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD TATE--First year-half-back. A fair ball carrier through the line, who displayed excellent spirit throughout the year. SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, October 19th. In the nrst Little Big Four game of the year the School's performance belied the promise shown in pre- season games. U.C.C.'s line was undoubtedly stronger than ours but, for some unknown reason, our line played Well for only about ten minutes during the whole game, and the team, as a whole, was not at its best. In the iirst few minutes of the game a U.C.C. kick bounded out of touch just behind the School's goal-line. and shortly afterwards LeMesurier was rouged to make the score 2-0. T.C.S. fought hard but by the end of the quarter they had been pushed back to their own ten-yard line. The second quarter started off with the play hovering around centre-field, however Knight of U.C.C. got a good kick away, for a rouge. Shortly afterwards a School fumble enabled Osborne to buck for a touchdown, which Bebell converted. The play was very even from that point ony but the score remained 9-0 in U.C.C.'s favour. During the third quarter the School held U.C.C. to two singles but in the fourth quarter Sainsbury of U.C.C. went over for another unconverted touchdown to bring the score to 16-0. Some minutes later Hart of U.C.C. fell on a loose ball behind the T.C.S. goal-line for a third touchdown. Bebell again converted to raise the score to 22-0. Just before the final whistle Duggan max., taking the injured Somerville's place, kicked for a single point. Sainsbury and Knight shone for U.C.C. while Jones max. and Duggan ma. were most effective for T.C.S. The final score was: U.C.C. 22, T.C.S. 1.

SCHOOL VS. S.A.C. At Port Hope, Octobefr 261511. In their second Little Big Four encounter of the year a fast School team proved too much for S.A.C., who were defeated 10-7. The play was dominated by forward passes but the turning point of the game was an S.A.C. fumble on their own twenty-two-yard line, just after the start of the second half. S.A.C. were the first to open the scoring when a long, bounding kick forced the School back to their own five- yard line. T.C.S. advanced the ball to their own thirty- eight-yard line, but at that point Mulligan intercepted a School pass, and after an exchange of kicks and a long completed forward pass, Gourlay threw another long pass to Cobban for an unconverted touchdown. In the second quarter T.C.S. dominated the majority of the play. Duggan max. kicked a single to make the score 5-1. Just before the half-time whistle blew, S.A.C. gained possession of the ball on the Trinity twenty-hve- yard line but were unable to capitalize before half-time. When the School recovered an S.A.C. fumble, Duggan ma. threw a forward to Hart for a touchdown. LeMesurier converted to put T.C.S. in the lead 7-5. Shortly before the third quarter ended, Gourlay kicked another single for S.A.C. Excitement ran high in the fourth quarter when Gourlay kicked still another single to even the score at seven-all. However Caldwell recovered an S.A.C. fumble 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and Duggan max. kicked three quick singles to give the School the winning margin of 10-7 . Gourlay, Chipman and Mulligan were the best for S.A.C. while Hart, Jones max. and Duggan max. were out- standing for the School.

Speed was the key-word in the School's final Little Big Four engagement of the year. Unfortunately Ridley held an advantage, the School coming out on the very short end of a 38-0 score. Although Ridley kept the School in their own half throughout the first quarter, they only scored one single. In the second quarter however, Hart was injured and forced to leave the game, making three backs off. Stevens intercepted a School forward pass from the Ridley twenty-five-yard line. He ran forty yards before passing to Cox, who ran the remaining forty for a touchdown. Shortly afterwards Schmon went over for another unconverted touchdown to make the score 11-0. The second half was a slightly worse repetition of the first. Shortly after the start of the third quarter Schmon ran from the Ridley fifty-yard line to the T.C.S. iifteen- yard line. From there Randall ran for the third Ridley touchdown. Hague converted to make the score 17-0. A School fumble was gathered up by Macia, who raced over for an unconverted touch. A single by Graves and an unconverted touchdovsm by Crossland were soon added at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Ridley then recover- ed another Trinity fumble on the twenty-five-yard line and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 Hague kicked a field-goal. Shortly after this, following a brilliant run by Schmon, Macia went over the line for his second touchdown of the half. Hague converted to make the score 38-0. The School were advancing the ball by forward passes when the final whistle blew. Schmon, Crossland and Macia shone for Ridley while LeMesurier, Hart, and Jones max. were the best for the School.

MIDDLESIDE This year the team played seven games, winning three and losing four of these. The average weight of the team being only 130 lbs., in most of the games the School was outweighed. The first game was played against S.A.C. at Aurora on October 12th. St. Anclrew's won by 55-12. Butler and O'Brien stood out for S.A.C., while Fairweather and Greene were best for the School. On October 16th, the School downed Port Hope High School 6-3. Thompson bucked for the major score and also converted it. On October 21st, against a team from Cobourg, Culver and Dignam were responsible for the two School touchdowns, while Thompson kicked two singles. The final score was T.C.S. 12, Cobourg 1. The return game with S.A.C. was played on the School grounds on October 26th. Berry scored the School's lone unconverted touchdown while St. Andrew's rolled up 31 points. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The second game with the Port Hope High School was on October 28th. The School again triumphed 5-2, by virtue of a touchdown by Armour. On November 2nd, the School played against U.T.S. on the Port Hope grounds. The visitors triumphed 21-6. Armour got the School's only touchdown, which Thompson converted. The last game of the season was played against the Lakefleld lst. The School came out on the short end of a 33-7 score. In the first half the home team scored 32 points to the School's 6 but in the second half the School came to life and each side scored but one point. Middleside House Game This year's Middleside House game was played on November 7th and from start to finish was packed with thrills. Brent kicked off, and, after some bucking by Greene and Armour, Bethune were forced to kick. Brent imme- diately marched down the field to the twenty-yard line and on third down Thompson kicked a placement. The Hrst quarter ended with Brent in possession of the ball deep in Bethune territory. A Brent kick was blocked by Reid who dribbled the ball down the field. Brent, however, recovered and, after another Brent kick had been blocked, Bethune ran a kick back to the Brent thirty-five-yard line. Shortly afterwards Bethune kicked and Huycke fell on the ball behind the Brent goal-line for a disputed touchdown. The third quarter was very even, Bethune scoring only one point on a kick by Greene. In the fourth quarter Brent was unable to capitalize on several Bethune fumbles but Bethune added another touchdown when Rogers ran back a Brent kick 105 yards for a touchdown, which he converted himself. The game ended a few minutes later, with the final score 12-3 in Bethune's favour. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 LITTLESIDE The Fifth team this year played only three games, two of which they won. The Sixth team also played two games with Lakefield, both of these being lost. The Fifth team's first game was against S.A.C. at Aurora on October 12th. They were swamped to the tune of 35-0 by a more experienced team. Blaiklock and Mac- donald were the best for the School. On Oct. 19th. and on Nov. 2nd., the Fifth team played Christ Church, Toronto. The Hrst game at Port Hope, was won by the School, 16-O. Waters, Layne and Speirs got the touchdowns for the School. The return game, played at Toronto, was also a victory for the School by the score of 34-5. Touchdowns were obtained by Beament C23 Keeiier, Waters, Britton and Macdonald. On the October 16th the Sixth played its first game against Lakefield at Port Hope. They put up a plucky iight but were downed 17-0. The return game with Lakefield was played at the Grove on November 6th. The School fought hard but lost a heart-breaking game by the score of 7-2. Macdonald kick- ed both singles. Littleside House Game This year's Littleside House game ended with the score: Bethune 43, Brent 0. In the first half, after two Bethune touches had been called back, Waters plunged for the first Bethune touch- down. In the second half Waters ran back two kicks, and Beament one, to gain Bethune three touchdowns. To lessen the monotony Beament bucked for a fifth touchdown lwith his pants round his anklesl. Touches by Waters, Beament, and Parker, all of which were converted by Mac- donald raised the score to 43-0. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD For Bethune House the whole team played very well, with Waters, Beament, and Macdonald starring. Boggs was the best for Brent House. L FOOTBALL COLOURS BIGSIDE-First Team - W. R. Berkinshaw, T. A. Cald- well, J. W. P. Draper, R. Duggan, IVE. R. Dugganvl W. R. Fleming, J. o. gart, A R. C.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 THE KICKING AND CATCHING CUP The competition for the Kicking and Catching Cup was held this year on Wednesday, November 13th. LeMesurier, of Bethune, and Duggan max., of Brent, tied for first place and a play-off was necessary. This was held a week later, with LeMesurier coming out on top. OXFORD CUP RACE The 44th annual running of the Oxford Cup Race was held on November 22nd. The weather conditions were ideal and the time of the Winner, Cawley, was Well up to standard. A unique occurrence was the finishing of five Brent boys in the iirst five places. Cawley took the lead some minutes from the start and set the pace for the Whole four and one half mile course.

Stanger was elected captain for the year and the team was under the able direction of Dr. Glover. The team's first game was against U.C.C. in Toronto on October 19th. The game was very even. U.C.C. scored twice in swift succession, with goals by Bremner and Davies. T.C.S. then retaliated with two quick goals by Duncan. Neither team was able to break the deadlock before the final whistle, the score being, T.C.S. 2, U.C.C. 2. The return engagement with U.C.C. was played at Port Hope on October 30th. The School won a hard-fought game by the score of 3-2. Duncan opened the scoring for the School, but before half-time U.C.C. had scored two goals. Duncan and Gibbons, however, soon gave the School a margin of victory by virtue of two brilliant goals. The team's last game was played against a team from Trenton Air Force Station, at Port Hope, on November 6th. The visitors proved much too strong and the School was downed 7-0. McDougall 127, Gash C21 and Elliott were the scorers for Trenton. Paterson and Morgan played very well for the School. The following represented the School throughout the season:- Stanger fCapt.J, McCaughey, Morgan, Clarke, Atkin, Paterson ma., Scott, Dewar, Paterson max., Duncan, Hare max., Gibbons and Hull. ..

This is chiefly because the weather is most unlike that which we ordinarily have at Christmas time. This year, however, we are having magni- ficent Christmas weather at the time of writing and so we do not find it so hard to think that the holidays are near or that we are being a bit out of season in wishing all our readers a most enjoyable holiday and a very Happy Christ- mas and New Year.

Games Due to the quarantine our games with outside teams were all cancelled with the exception of one rugby game with U.C.C. mentioned in the last number. The soccer and rugby squads carried on, however, and much to the credit of the boys the enthusiasm for their respective games was little diminished. We fortunately felt that the ban was likely to be lifted at any time and that game with outside schools would be possible. Such, however, was not our good fortune and the poor old soccer squad had to go gamefully gameless. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 On the basis of the one game played and for general ability throughout the season rugby colours have been granted to the following boys: Howard, Gibson, Brockle- bank, Decker, Stratford, Perry, Vivian, 0'Grady, Higgin- botham, Dignam, Roenisch, Bovaird, Hiam, Caldwell, Butterdeld, Briden. Intra-Mural Soccer The annual intra-mural soccer contests have got off to a flying start. This year an additional team had to be formed because of the larger number of boys in the School, This new team is to be known as the Marines , The following teams make up the group-Tanks CHoward, captainlg Navy CGour1ay, captainlg Army Uones, cap- tainlg Air Force CHope, captainl and Marines CVivian, captainl.

It was an excellent game which at half-time was a scoreless tie. In the second half Rigby was able to get into a scoring position and kick for two single points. The boys who represented their Houses in this game were:-R-Orchard House: Bovaird, Burns, Hogarth, Howard, Jones, Vivian, Melville, Caldwell, Decker, Hiam, Kennedy, Brocklebank and Stratford. Rigby House: Briden, Dignam, Edmonds, Gibson, Gourlay i., Higginbotham, O'Grady, Perry, Stokes, Butterfield, Chase, Hickell, Jarvis i., and Sutcliffe. i----- Hallowe'en Party The usual spirits and goblins which frequent this planet on October 31st were greatly surprised to see so many of their friends and relatives at the Junior School on that evening-the occasion being the Junior School Hallowe'en masquerade party. The event was a howling success and priests, witches, fairies, and thugs were all able to eat heartily at the close of the evening without too much worry about their temporary identity. Prizes for costumes were given to Jones as an Indian medicine man, to Vivian as a lady and to Stokes as a Hallowe'en pumpkin. The costumes were very good and the judges had a most difficult time making their decision. Choir Notes The Choir is undergoing its usual re-organization after the departure of many old friends to the Senior School. There appears to be much likely material amongst the New Boys.

Millward D 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD EQUATION Being a child in a motherless, healthy, hard-working family does not, in certain cases, tend to make one of a cheerful disposition, when one has been disabled from birth. Such was John Harley's case. He had a club-foot and a withered right leg. Excluded from the games and pranks of his brothers and sisters and with no mother to teach him how to be patient, he grew up with a gloomy disposi- tion. He was jealous of all able-bodied or cheerful men. Thus he grew to manhood. His father had left him a small legacy which provided him with most of his necessi- ties. In addition to this he had a position as a clerk in some unimportant oiiice. He occupied three small rooms about half a mile from the ofiice and twice a day, in the morning and evening, he hobbled between these two places. A short distance from his rooms he had often seen a pauper selling boot and shoe-laces at one of the street corners. At first Mr. Harley had not noticed this beggar particularly. However he could not fail to see what a contrast the hawker presented to himself. On the one hand there was the saturnine man, who, though not well off, was always certain of food and shelterg on the other the street pedlar, who was forced by necessity to sit in the open in all sorts of weather, his prospects of needed nourishment always doubtful. Yet who was more cheer- ful, more hopeful, than he? Day by Day Harley grew more and more jealous of, more and more angry with the hawker. The sight of his cheerful, beaming face infuriated the envious one. Harley attempted to miss seeing the shoe-lace seller by walking on the opposite side of the street-but in vain. The merry voice rang like a bell in his ears. His eyes were drawn as thought by a magnet to his unsuspecting tormentor's face. The disabled man was extremely unhappy. He thought of, heard, saw nothing but the joy of living contained in the pedlar's heart. His mind gave way to desperationg his very reason was impaired. He formed a plan. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 One night he watched the pedlar until he started for home. Mr. Harley followed him closely up to the time when the pedlar chanced to go through a narrow, dark alley. Then, as quickly as his crippled leg would allow him, he caught up with his unwitting adversary, grasped him around his throat and throttled him. No sound, save a low gurgling noise, came from the victim's lips. Harley threw the lifeless body to the ground and hurried from the scene. His demented brain worked feverishly. He was sure he had not been observed, and, believing the byway to be an unfrequented spot, thought that the murdered man would not be found for several hours. Soon he arrived at his rooms and after a hasty meal prepared for sleep. His rest was a troubled one. Around midnight the ghastly blue face of the hawker appeared in Harley's dreams. He awoke, screaming. He seemed to hear again the cheerful voice, the soft footsteps striding along the pavement, the last gasp for breath, the thud of the corpse on the road. The sweat poured freely from the madman's brow. His hands were shaking and clammy. His wild eyes, starting from his head, stared at something, some- one, they could not see. Scarcely knowing what he did, he dressed, now shuddering with cold, now tearing open his collar to cool his heaving breast. The insane man staggered from the room and stumbled down the stairs. He fumbled with his latch-key and, after opening the door, hobbled along the road. With his hands to his splitting head and babbling under his breath, he wandered for several miles. Suddenly a low, murmuring splashing reached his ears. His crazed mind conceived a method of ending this tormenting existence. He went for- ward as swiftly as possible. He paused, then jiunped. Blackness closed in upon him. Oblivion brought rest to his tortured mind. The cool, swirling waters of the river raced onward. -A. E.

Raiders fWith Apologies to Thomas Grayj Lights out spells the knell of parting day, The yelling dorm. wind slowly to their beds, The master roomward plods his weary way, And leaves the School to sleepers and to me. Then fades the deafening noise about the School, And all the air a solemn stillness holds Save where the snorer snores his peaceful dreams, And drowsy rustlings lull the near-by beds. Beneath those heavy covers that the roofs do shade, There sleep the boys in many a wrinkled heap, Each in his narrow bed asleep When the master on his nightly rounds does go.

Grover writes:- There are thirteen Old Boys here at Toronto at pre- sent. Down at Osgoode Hall, finishing up their law course, are Charlie Seagram and Warren White. Warren spends any free time he has acting as Lieutenant in the graduate company of the C.O.T.C.. In his last lap at the university is Dave Birdie Partridge who this year finishes a course in Arts. He has been playing some good rugby for Trinity, filling the out- side position. In the last game of the season so many of our men had been crippled that Birdie had to play in the backfield for a While, and he made a very creditable showing. Next year he expects to go down to the United States and do the Compulsory Military Training. In between quick trips down to Hamilton, Ed. Cayley is taking a course in Pass Arts. He has applied for a commission in the navy and is trusting it will come through before the examinations in the spring. Quite recently he was promoted from the C.O.T.C. to act as a sergeant in the University Training Centre Battalion . Among the new arrivals We have Jim Gripton, who is enrolled in Victoria College. He and Jim Giffen have taken a small apartment near the University. They have both suddenly developed a liking for classical music and have found a novel and lucrative way of satifying their desire. They act as ushers for the concerts at Eaton Auditorium, working for about fifteen minutes and taking in the music the rest of the while. Walter Ross, who last year was taking an engineering course, has this year transferred to Trinity College where he is taking the first year of mathematics and physics. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Also in first year are Gordon Gardiner and Ted Lambert. Ted is going through for medicine. John Vallance has moved from Trinity House and is now living at the Zeta Psi fraternity, but Tom Hyndman and Jack Cartwright are still living in the residence.

You see, this morning His Majesty's courier descended upon me with your request for this letter. A Queen's letter, they said. Now, does that call for descriptions of and comments on the University? Hardly, for if memory serves, the Record's advertising rates are a little beyond my modest means. But if you really want to hear all about the college, there are any number of upstanding fellows here who could tell you. For instance, there is Bill Harvey, large as life, looking quite chic in his freshman tam. Don Warner has come over from R.M.C. for a stay with us. Max Pochon and Mike Keegan represent the class of '40, In his junior year is one Mr. Davis, who goes by the extra- ordinary nickname of St ..... Oh, never mind. But when TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 there are available such notables as these, I cannot but bleat, Why pick on me ?': Even they are not the only members of their clan in Kingston. A few days after I arrived, I was surprised and pleased to receive a letter from Mr. F. G. Kirkpatrick CT.C.S. 1880-87, Queen's 18913. Mr. Kirkpatrick, though not in the best of health, maintains a lively interest in the School and reads the occasional Record which he receives.

We still have those tests, in fact we have one every day this week, in vegetable gardening, how to start an apple orchard, and poultry, along with a thousand-word essay on Bees and How to Keep Them. lNote: In the best interests of the writers, parts of the letter are omitted.J Correction We regret that the last number of the Record erron- eously reported the birth of a son to Torn King C28-'31J. iill..- 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 81 OLD BOYS IN THE N.P.A.M.

EDITORIALS On Saturday, February Sth., the School played host to a hockey team and to two basketball teams from U.C.C. All arrived in the late morning or early afternoon, in the midst of quite a blizzard. The snow was beginning to pile up. After the game, two U.T.S. cars set out for Toronto, but were turned back by the police just outside of Port Hope, as the roads were by now under feet of snow. U.C.C. took the warning and stayed here. Thus the School had thirty-six guests for the night. And what a night it was! Being filled to capacity, the School had no surplus of beds. Hence mattresses were found, and a blanket bor- rowed from each room. The gymnasium was used as a dormitory, and thirty-six mattresses were soon laid out all over the floor. That evening there was show-leave . Several Trinity boys skiied down town, most hauled on ski boots and heavy stockings. Some wore parkas. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The U.T.S. and U.C.C. boys had nothing heavy, so ski boots, overshoes and stockings were immediately lent by our boys, and all marched down town together. About 1.30 a.m. the following morning, certain mem- bers of the School were awakened by voices outside their window. An investigation showed that thirty weary S.A.C. boys, heading for Aurora from Lakefield via Port Hope had got this far, and were stopped. All rooms in town had been taken by stranded truck and bus drivers, so the boys walked up to T.C.S. They were given a sleepy welcome, and room was found for them in the Junior School building, and again in the gym. A master slept on a couch in the Master's Com- mon Room. Anything for some sleep! Next morning, after breakfast, our sixty-six visitors bade adieu. We enjoyed having them, and they, on their part, seemed to have had considerable fun out of their predicament. Through the help of every boy in the School, our guests were made more or less comfortable. Almost every- one supplied something-blankets, boots, stockings, towels, and various other such articles. One boy actually lent a brand new pair of silk pyjamas! The boys are to be con- gratulated for their unseliish assistance. They all helped by doing what they could to make our visitors comfortable. Britain, too, needs the help of all her people. She has a black menace to overcome, and she cannot do so alone. Even Mr. Churchill cannot alone defeat Germany. The Dominions and Colonies must rally to the call of the Mother Country. That does not necessarily mean that the forces of her overseas Empire, only, must go to her assistance,-it means that all of us must help, and the simplest way has been clearly outlined for us: buy Cana- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 dian War Savings Stamps. Every nickel buys bullets, and those bullets will make a most decisive difference to the outcome of the present struggle. We are asked to lend our money, and we will be given more back than we lend. The best way for us to fight, from our position, three thousand miles away, is by Buy- ing Canadian War Savings Stamps. We must all pull together. -C.I.P.T. THE AIRMEN O ye winged valour of our nation's soul, Courageous Hearts, ye dauntless soar on high, Forgetting earth and not afraid to die. Beneath you, seas illimitable roll And strip the icebergs from each glittering pole, Engulfing clouds like monsters pass you by, And night enwraps you in the lonely sky, But nought diverts you from your destined goal. Ye bear on high the banner of our Land, Out-soaring eagles in their loftiest flight, Swift as the lightning on your headlong race, And when invisible death on every hand Darts his swift arrows, mounting out of sight, Ye guard our realms from battlements in space. Frederick George Scott. Quebec, Nov. 3rd, 1940. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD HAPELT onjs On Advent Sunday, Dec. lst, the Chaplain preached. He took as his text, St. John I, 40. In his sermon he gave us an account of the life of St. Andrew, the first disciple, and the Saint whose festival is the first to be celebrated in the church year. He told us that St. Andrew was the first man to have a true missionary spirit. His example should be followed by us all, for, he pointed out, We can, by leading our lives rightly, do just as much for mankind as by taking Holy Orders. On Sunday, Dec. 8th, Mr. Yates spoke in the Chapel. He drew a parallel between earthly debts, which are hon- ourably paid, and spiritual debts which we owe. Mr. Yates reminded us that although we consider our sense of sight, walking, and even the earth, our natural heritage, in all actuality we owe these things to God. The way to pay these debts off is through the medium of truth and honesty. He concluded by saying that as a father always ex- pccts the best of his son, so God expects the best of us. CAROL SERVICE The annual Carol Service was held on the last Sunday of Michaclmas Term. As usual the Chapel was filled, and all enjojyecl the excellent singing of the choir under the able TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 guidance of Mr. Cohu. Both the Choir and Mr. Cohu are to be congratulated. The order of service was: Processional Hymn- Adeste Fideles . Choral- Break Forth O Beauteous Heavenly Light lBachJ First Reading-A. E.

On January 12, 1941, the first School Sunday of the New Year, the Chaplain preached an Epiphany Sermon. He reminded us of the tale of the wise men, pointing out that, although legend had added to it during the in- tervening ages, it was still founded on one basic principle. The three wise men, he said, each saw in Jesus his ideal. In Him they saw the character, power, benevolence, faith and invincible courage which they themselves wished 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to obtain. The Chaplain drew a comparison between the wise men and ourselves, illustrating how we too look to God for an example, and see in Him our ideal. Memorial Service for Lord Baden-Powell On Sunday afternoon, January 19th, the School attend- ed thc Scout and Guide Memorial Service for the late Chief Scout, the Rt. Hon. Lord Baden-Powell of Gilwell, O.M., G.C.M.G., G.C.V.O., K.C.B., V.D. The service was held at the United Church, Port Hope, and was conducted by the Rev. J. W. Gordon, assisted by the Chaplain and the Rev. J. M. Crisall. The address was given by the Rev. J. M. Crisall, who, taking his text from Daniel 10:11, A man greatly beloved, spoke on the life of Lord Baden-Powell and his great work in organizing the Boy Scout movement. After the address the Scout and Guide promise was renewed and at the close of the service the flags were carried in procession out of the church. On Sunday, January 26th, the Chaplain preached in Chapel. He took as his text St. Matthew 8, verses 1-3, which tell of the leper who went to Christ to be healed. We were reminded by him that a leper was so unclean that no one would speak to him, let alone go near him. This leper, he said, must have heard the Sermon on the Mount from the outskirts of the crowd, and, hearing the words: Ask, and it shall be given unto youg seek, and ye shall find, knock, and it shall be opened unto you, thought that he would ask Jesus to cleanse him. Our Lord liked the humble manner of the leper and answered: I shall, be thou clean. The Chaplain concluded, by saying that the word Gospel means Good News: it conveys to us the good news that Christ loves each and every one of us. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 Sunday, February 3rd, The Rev. J. W. Gordon, D.D., of Port Hope, preached in Chapel. Dr. Gordon spoke on the place of the Athlete in the Bible. He pointed out that athletes are continually men- tioned throughout the Old Testament, the greatest of them being David. The ancient Greeks, with their many athletic contests, influenced St. Paul and had a great eHect on the early Church, as shown in the New Testament. i-1 On Sunday, February 9th., the Headmaster addressed the School in Chapel. He said: Some three years ago my Wife and I were in Virginia and one Sunday we listened to a broadcast of a Negro church service. We were much impressed by the Warmth and simple sincerity of it, by the deep, round tones of the voices in hymn, spiritual, and prayer. Then it came to an end and the announcer said these Words: We hope you have enjoyed this service. It is good for the soul to listen to a church service, in just the same way it is good for the skin to use Hill's soap. That announcer was probably doing his job, but he was also doing something which is far too common for our welfare, he was mixing matters of Iirst importance, of vital necessity, with common every day things of much less importance, so that the one is hardly distinguishable from the other. In the same breath and with the same emphasis he was speaking of things of the Spirit, of char- acter, and of matters of physical comfort and appearance. If I were to ask you what was the most important thing in the World to do to-day, you would, after a moment's consideration, answer correctly: to win the war, to press home the fight against a ruthless barbarian tyranny which, with devilish detail, is doing its terrible utmost to en- chain the bodies, minds, and spirits of mankind. We must fight this gangster rule to a victorious conclusion. 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD It is just as if a large part of the body of the world were sick with a vile disease. The rest of the body must fight that disease until the whole body becomes healthy again before it can do anything worthwhile. That is our immediate task and it will need all our powers. But if I were to ask you what was the most important thing for you to do to-day I believe I would receive many different answers. Some of you would feel a skiing ex- cursion was the most important thing for you to do, some would perhaps have a letter to finish, some a story to read, some would want to time the sermon, some might even want to finish some work. I believe there is something far more important. It is so important the whole future of humanity rests upon it. You have heard it before-I mentioned it last term. The plea is as old as Socrates and probably older than that. Yet the great majority of men have always disre- garded it, hence there are crises, wars, retrogression in- stead of progression. It is to know yourself, the limitless powers each of you have, if you will only begin to explore them: powers which could change the whole course of the world. In the words of this morning's lesson- To them gave He power to become the sons of God. Both lessons this morning stressed the divinity of man, the immense possibilities each one of us has. It is often true that a crisis in our lives reveals to us hidden springs of strength, makes us wiser, more serenely confident in the value of the good life, more courageous. Every report we have had recently from England stresses the truth of this. The people that walked in dark- ness have seen a great light, the light being the spirit of the Lord,-The spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and true Godliness. Real Christianity has come back to their lives. holiness lacked so long, and love and pain: honour has come back as a king to earth: nobleness walks in our ways again. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 How can we discover these powers? Of the three great leaders of Christendom in this desperate struggle, His Majesty the King has played a most important role. In his two war time Christmas broadcasts he has given us the clue to vital living, to the discovery of our powers, in two old, familiar words, words which have recently been richly clothed with sacrifice: Duty and Service. You remember his message a year ago in which he ended with the now well-known quotation: I said to a man who stood at the gate of the year: 'Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown? And he replied, 'Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to you better than light and safer than the known way'. Is not that just the first and great commandment, your duty to God? Thou shalt love the Lord thy God, righteousness, with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with all thy mind. Last Christmas, in his broadcast, His Majesty said this: In the battered towns and cities of England I have seen a new and splendid spirit of good fellowship springing up in adversity, a real desire to share burdens and re- sources alike. Out of all this suffering there is growing a harmony which we must carry forward into the days to come when we have endured to the end and victory is ours. Is not that the second commandment, your duty to man or your duty of service to man? Thou shalt love, understand, your neighbour as yourself . These are the two basic principles of Christian life, the striving for righteousness in all aspects of our lives, and the need for brotherhood, fellowship, comradeship be- tween man and man. That is where we have fallen down in the past: man has been too often a grasping, selfish, greedy person, de- termined to get as much as possible for himself, to give 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD as little as possible to others. He has lacked the courage to discipline himself, he has lacked unswerving honesty in thought, word and deed. At the debate the other night I heard it wisely said that to win the war was our immediate and pressing task, but to win the peace was no whit less important and would probably be no less diflicult. Some of you will be joining the ranks of the gallant young men in the front lines. I wish you could be left to run things at home, to be sure to win the peace, and that the older men could be called on to join the ranks of those in the forefront of the battle. Many of you, however, will not be called on to bear arms but you will be called on to bear wisdom, to bear understanding, to win the peace, and you must begin to train for that great task. Your future, the future of your coiuitries, the future of the human race depends on how you discharge your duties. You remember the King spoke of good fellowship springing up, a desire to share burdens and resources alike . . . . . there is growing a harmony which we must carry forward into the days to come. There is the new spirit, or rather the old Christian spirit resurrected, a great sacrifice bringing about a greater resurrection. I always think that one of the most poignant results of war is the breaking of communications. Think of the great silence that has engulfed Poland, Austria and large parts of the world. The lines of communication between man and man are down, war has broken them. Despite all the marvellous scientific achievements of this century whereby man was brought closer to man than ever before, the lines have been broken by brute force, and we must repair them again before that comradeship and fellowship can begin to make itself felt. And then, when the lines are restored we must see to it that this feeling of harmony goes deeper than the ear TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 of man, it must penetrate into his spirit, into the very soul of man. If those days are ever to come, you and others like you must first begin to train yourselves. You must learn the rules of this great game of life, you must experience in yourselves the glow of achievement, the thrill that comes through playing your important part in a really worth- while team effort. Some of you have discovered this thrill in a physical sense, on the rinks or playing fields and you know you cannot be of much use if you are thinking of yourself all the time, or if you have failed to practice, or if you have not kept your body in good shape. In just the same way you cannot discover the deep resources of your mind and spirit if you are selfish and undisciplined, if you are not honest with yourself and try to beat the rules, if you lack control and perservance and fail to practice, or if you pander to yourself, become lazy and flabby. Duty and Service, those Words are shining beacons to countless thousands in England to-day, pointing the way to Survival, and a full life: It is not easy to follow that path, nothing worthwhile ever is. If the way becomes hard, as it is to-day, remember that fire purifies, it turns iron into steel, it reveals the inner strength as it is doing to-day in the towns and villages and countryside of England. Do you want a more detailed statement about the rules which must be followed if we are to know our own abtmdant powers, and make a vital contribution to the life of our day and the future of the world? As is always the case, you will find these rules in the Bibleg I have quoted the summary Jesus gave of the ten commandments. Here is the way St. Paul stated the rules in the 13th chapter of Corinthians: We must be patient, very kind. We must know no jealousy. ' We must not be conceited. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD We must never be rude. We must never be selfish, never irritated, never resentful. We must not be glad when others go wrong. We must be gladdened by goodness, slow to criticise, eager to believe the best, always hopeful, always patient. Notice that St. Paul repeats the word patient. We cannot grow in a day, patience and perseverance must be practiced and acquired. Then, as Mr. Churchill so ably expressed it this after- noon, we must see that adversity does not get us down, but on the contrary, lights an intense flame of determina- tion to overcome evil and difficulties, and makes us doers, rather than just hearers of the word. So let us be men of good courage, of confidence and faith in the future, realizing the thrill of our full abilities and powers by putting them into use for mankindg and let us keep those kingly words ever before us, Duty and Service. That is the most important thing we can begin to do to-day. THE NEW SPIRIT The following note was appended to a letter recently received by the Headmaster. It was written by a well- known Montreal man, and as it contains so much truth in a short space, we have sought the privilege of reproducing it for the benefit of our readers. I am glad that the reign of the pseudo-intellectual is over in Canada. Our lads have discarded cynicism and the debunking philosophy preached so long by a certain clique. Archibald McLeish did a fine bit of work in his ad- dress to the Adult Teachers' Association last June. Lewis Mumford in his Faith for Living and Robert Sherwood in his preface to his new play, have blazed the trail to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 reality. Duty, responsibility for others, courage and un- selfishness have again taken their rightful place in our life -the whole in accordance with the history and tradition of the British peoples. In fact, it has taken Hitler to bring out our enduring qualities. Therefore, we can look forward to the future with confidence. A school like T.C.S. always preserved our ideals in a world where doubt and confusion were extolled. With a few exceptions our intellectual snobs have been of no use in the present crisis. One reason is that they have no be- lief even in God, and they have no knowledge of the human heart. So they are out of touch with the spiritual awaken- ing that has taken place here and particularly in England. C. Nicholas 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IN MEMORIAM J. D. BILKEY Jim Bilkey came to the School in 1929 and left in 1934. In his quiet unassuming way he won many friends at T.C.S. and he became one of our best gymnasts. He was a member of the fourth form, in his final yearg he played quarter- back for the Middleside football team, was on the Middle- side hockey team and second cricket eleven, and was a member for the second year of the first gym. eight. Be- cause of his all-round proiiciency in the work of the Cadet Corps he won the instructor's cup for the best cadet. He also won a King's Bronze Medal for scoring 99 in the Imperial Challenge Shoot. After leaving T.C.S., Bilkey spent a year at Lower Canada and then entered the University of Bishop's College, he played on most of the first teams there and distinguish- ed himself as quarterback of the football team. Later he took a position on the Montreal Daily Star, leaving to enlist in the Air Force on July lst. On December 14th he was making a training fiight near Dunnville when his machine went out of control and crashed, killing him instantly. JOHN W. OSBORNE John W. Osborne V28-'32l a Lieutenant in the Argyll and Sutherland Regiment, was instantly killed on December 22nd in his room at the Chippewa barracks when a revolver was accidentally discharged. John Osborne came to T.C.S. with his step-brother, John Patton, in September, 1928, and left in 1932. While he was at the School he entered into all the activities of our life with enthusiasm, and took special interest in the work of the Cadet Corps. When he left he qualified for a commission with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 then entered the employ of the Imperial Oil Companyg he was sent to study crude oil production with the Tropical Oil Company of Barranca, Colombia, South America. Immediately his regiment was mobilized he returned to Canada for active service. C. H. IRVING Christopher Harleston Irving C73-'78l,, 7th child of Sir Amelius and Augusta Louisa Gregory Irving, was born at Hamilton on April 28, 1864. He was educated at Trinity College School in Port Hope, Ontario. Irving served as a gunner in C Battery, Royal Cana- dian Artillery during the South African War, 1899-1900. He married Belle Downer at St. Thomas, Ontario. She died in 1910 and he married Amelia Constance Power, at Newmarket. On the death of his father, Sir Amelius, he inherited the family estate, Bonslaw, Newmarket, that hav- ing been owned by the family since 1839. He died at Newmarket, December 16th, 1940, and was buried in the family lot at St. James Cemetery, Toronto. GEORGE W. ALLAN George William Allan, K.C., C76-'77l died at Victoria on December 6th, after a brief illness. He was President of the Great West Life Assurance Company, senior partner of a Winnipeg law firm, and director of many companies. From 1917 to 1921 he represented South Winnipeg in Par- liament. Of him the Globe and Mail wrote: He was a great human being might well be the epitaph of George William Allan, K.C., of Winnipeg, distin- guished lawyer, business man and pioneer of Western Can- ada, Whose death is mourned not only 'throughout the Dominion but in Great Britain. 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The late George Allan was one of the most remarkable and colourful men of his day. He was a unique and dis- tinctive personality, with a reputation as a raconteur and wit, but back of all his levity and geniality lay fine executive ability and rare business judgment. He embodied many of the best qualities of both East and West. Coming of good stock--his father was the late Hon. George William Allan, a Canadian Privy Councillor and Senator-he was a man of character and vitality, and he had the benefit of a sound education in Toronto, and read law in the office of the famous Hon. Edward Blake, K.C., in Toronto before he was called to the bar of Manitoba fifty-eight years ago. He was one of the outstanding barristers of Western Canada, and his wide association with insurance, banking and industry as president or direc- tor of of a score of the leading institutions of Canada and Britain testifies to his knowledge of the law, his business sagacity and organizing ability backed up by superb com- mon sense. But overshadowing all were his personal qualities, and his great gift for friendship. In the darkest days of the Great War he sacrificed personal convenience to serve as a Unionist member of Parliament for Winnipeg, and while he never aspired to Cabinet rank his advice was frequently sought by the Prime Minister and by Sir Thomas White, who had to deal with unprecedented problems as wartime Minister of Finance. If the Union Government was in difliculty with some of its followers, George Allan could harmonize any situation that was embarrassing to the Min- istry. He was universally respected by members from East and West, regardless of their former political aflilia- tions, and it is doubtful if there ever was a man in the Canadian West who had a wider acquaintance with the in- dustrial and financial world of Canada or who was so greatly admired for his human qualities. fx N 1 1,1 W-ah-'E LIEUTENANT NV.

TAYLOR Walter Herbert Taylor U85-'87l died in Christie Street Hospital, Toronto, on January 10th. He served overseas in the last war, and, in collaboration with his brother, de- veloped a method of treating wounds which was adopted by the Canadian Government in this war. Dr. Taylor was in practice at Thessalon, and later at Port Arthur, prior to 1914. After his return from the war, he was for some years on the staff of the military hospital at Guelph, before returning to private practice at St. Mary's. THE LATE DR. J. C. MAYNARD The following tribute to the late Jack Maynard has been written by one of Jack's former School- and team- mates: How is Jack Maynard ? Do you ever see Jack May- nard ? Men who had not seen him for 38 years ask this question. It is asked as if the thought were very fresh in their minds, and it no doubt is. These men are ex-T.C.S. team-mates or School-mates scattered across Canada, living in cities-Montreal, Victoria, Vancouver, Calgary, Winni- peg, in oil fields, and in the open spaces. Such has been our experience as we have travelled across Canada at least once a year during the last eight years. In the Fall of 1912 Jack was nursing a bad ankle and it was decided to rest him when Varsity played Queen's in Kingston. The field was wet and the ball and the players not only wet, but covered with blue clay. We were being beaten by a strong kicker. One of our halves was injured. Maynard came on. Every member of that team knew it would be only a matter of time. The first play was the old Campbell-Maynard criss-cross, and we had a touch- down that won the game. 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD There have been many athletes in Canada who will be considered by the fans as greater football players, but few of them possess the faculty of inspiring confidence in a team to the extent that Maynard possessed. Members of his team profited by this attribute that other athletes, greater individually, lacked. On September 13th last, Jack visited our Mess at Niagara-on-the-Lake, where he was taking a well-earned rest in a cottage by Lake Ontario. He had just Hnished a two weeks' period of training with the 48th Highlanders at the same camp. He saw service in the last war. This was found him an oiiicer of the Active Militia-the pre- liminary training arm of Volunteers for Active Service. We saw the news of Jack's death on a C.P.R. Train and Hotel Bulletin posted in the lobby of the Hotel Sask- atchewan, Regina, on November 9th. He had become re- cognized as a nationally known figure, an athlete, sports- man, soldier, and a grand fellow to know. He will be missed particularly by his patients, but his passing will not be regretted by anyone more than by his T.C.S. ex-School and team-mates, living in scattered cities of Canada. -W. M. f Buck j Pearce C05-'09l I TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 HONOURS SECOND LIEUTENANT J. M. S. PATTON, GEORGE CROSS The School was thrilled when the Headmaster an- nounced in Hall on December 17th that an Old Boy, J. M. S. Patton C28-'32J, had been awarded the George Cross for conspicuous gallantry and became therefore the first Canadian citizen ever to win this recently established and coveted honour. The following description of his heroic deed is taken from the London Daily Telegraph and Morn- ing Post of December 18th, where it was featured on the first page: Amateur in Lorry Tows Bomb Away 2nd. Lt. John MacMillan Stevenson Patton, of the Royal Cana- dian Engineers, has been awarded the George Cross for most con- spicuous gallantry in carrying out hazardous work in a very brave manner . He was engaged in clearing debris when a member of the Home Guard told him that a big bomb which had fallen in the vicinity had failed to explode. He inspected the bomb, decided it was in much too dangerous a position to be left there, and obtained an Army lorry and a length of cable. After fastening the cable round the missile, 2nd Lt. Patton sat on the running-board of the lorry to watch what happened while the bomb was dragged behind the vehicle to a field. It was decided that it would be best to dump the bomb in -an old crater. After careful manoeuvring it was deposited gently in the hole. 2nd. Lt. Patton, an expert in chemical engineering, at that time knew nothing of the technique of tackling unexploded bombs. He became so interested that he is now attached to a bomb disposal unit of the R. E. He is 25 and married. It has now become known that the bomb had landed in a very important munitions factory. John Patton came to T.C.S. in 1928 at the age of thir- teen and stayed until 1932. He won the general pro- ficiency prize of his form in 1930 and in 1931, a bronze Z1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD medal in life-saving, and a prize given by the Science Club for silver-plating. After leaving T.C.S. he went to Queen's University where he graduated in chemical engineering. During his years at Queen's he became prominent in O.T.C. work and later received a commission in the Royal Canadian En- gineers, with which unit he went overseas in the first division. Patton's father was President of Princeton University for fourteen years being succeeded by Woodrow Wilson. After his father's death his mother married Col. Colin Osborne of Hamilton. Last April Patton married Miss Mollie Teskey of Kingston. The brave act for which he won such signal honour took place last October but Patton said nothing about ity it was not until the announcement of the award in December that his family heard of it. The School is indeed proud of him and a half-holiday was given in his honour last month. They looked on Death And with him nonchalantly passed the time of day- He paused, bewildered, muttered beneath his breath Immortals, these , and laid his scythe away.

He is conducting a diocesan school among coloured people. So far , he says, the climate and conditions have been no great strain and we should be able to carry on until the end of March. I am up every morning between 5.30 and 6.30, when we begin our services. School is from 8.15-1. The boys are intelligent, some 25 of them have just written their Cambridge Local Exams. All of them take Latin, English and History. They play soccer after lunch though the temperature is 80 degrees in the shade. Group Captain Hume's Book We were much interested to receive ea copy of Group Captain's Hume's newly published book on Elementary 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Aerodynamics. Some of the chapters were given as lectures to the School two years ago. Group Captain Hume has inscribed the book With the author's compliments and grateful memories of many happy hours. Boys from Mexico Mrs. Glover of Mexico City called at the School early in the term and found ten boys from Mexico. They are del Rio, Barnett, Speirs, Michael, Wynne, Saunderson, Forbes, Payne, Paterson, Kennedy. The School Play This year the School play is to be the comedy, Baa, Baa, Black Sheep, written by P. G. Wodehouse in colla- boration with Ian Hay. Rehearsals are under way, some fifteen boys have parts. The play is to be presented on March 22nd. Half Holidays On Friday, January 24th., a half holiday was declared in honour of J. M. S. Patton, who won the George Cross for conspicious gallantry in removing time bombs. On Friday, January 31st., a half holiday was granted on behalf of J. B. Rogers, who returned to the School for the first time a few months ago, accompanied by his bride. Mr. Schaeffer in Vermont Mr. Carl Schaeffer, who is the first Canadian to be awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for Art, has been paint- ing in Norwich, Vermont. He was invited to send four of his pictures to the Pennsylvania Academy exhibition in November, and he is organizing the Canadian exhibit of water colours for the spring show at the Brooklyn Museum of fine art. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23 THE SAGUENAY FUND Last term it was decided that the School should adopt the H.M.C.S. Saguenay. It was decided that all persons connected with the School would give a small weekly sum of money toward the Saguenay Fund. The money thus collected would be used to provide small items of comfort to the officers and men aboard the Saguenayg such as cigarettes, fresh fruit, toffee, etc., and these, to- gether with magazines and books, collected from around the School, would be forwarded in bundles at regular in- tervals. It has now been decided to discontinue this Fund in favour of helping Canada in the purchasing of War Stamps and certiicates, but bundles will be sent to the Saguenay as well, as money will be raised by occasional collections.

The Governor of Tr'inida,d's Visit On Saturday, January 25th, Sir Hubert Young, the Governor of Trinidad, and his wife visited the School, be- fore departing for England. After lunch Sir Hubert was kind enough to say a few words to the School. He said how all in the West Indies were doing their utmost in sending financial aid to Britain to buy aeroplanes. He also said how very much it was appreciated by the people of England and by some of her colonies the way in which Canada had taken refugees into her homes and schools. Sir Hubert was on his way to England in connection with the leasing of air and naval bases in the West Indies by Great Britain to the United States of America. War Savings On February 11th classes ended twenty minutes early and the School reported to the gymnasium, where they were given a very interesting and informative talk by Mr. Mul- holland. In this talk, Mr. Mulholland showed us just how we could provide for ourselves in the depression that was bound to follow the war, and also help our country, by buying War Saving Certificates. After Mr. Mulholland had spoken, the Headmaster said a few words and outlined just how T.C.S. was going to help in this campaign. He suggested that we all try and cut down on every expense by deducting a small part of the money we are usually accustomed to spend during the week and at the end of the week vxc turn the accumulated sum over to our House- mastcr, who in turn gives us the amount of worth in War Savings Stamps.

Eh1E'Tg4. h 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD PER ARDUA AD ASTRA The tragic death of Leading Aircraftman James Dal- ton Bilkey in the crash of an airplane in which he was making a solo Bight near Dunnville is a reminder of the sacriices our gallant airmen are making in the preservation of the British Empire and civilization. Since the outbreak of the war more than one hundred young Canadians have given their lives in the struggle to wrest air supremacy from the Hun, and in a conflict so stupendous it is inevit- able that many of the valiant young men who have created a new chivalry must make the supreme sacrifice. Jim Bilkey counted himself lucky and honoured to be of the right age and qualifications to throw his full weight into the scale. A iine lad, standing over 6 feet, he was typical of the knights of the air who have stopped the on- rush of the German hordes. He had been a brilliant student at Trinity College School and the University of Bishop's College, Lennoxville, and showed great promise as a journ- alist, following in the footsteps of his father, who is editor- in-chief of the Montreal Gazette. Words fail to express the profoimd sorrow of the Cana- dian people concerning the loss of young men like Jim Bilkey and the hundred others who have given their lives that the Empire might live. The letter of a young Royal Air Force pilot which was forwarded to his mother when he did not return may be some consolation to bereaved parents. It has been quoted wherever the English language is spoken. My death, this officer wrote, would not mean that your struggle has been in vain. Far from it. It means that your sacrifice is as great as mine. Bishop Rcnison has said that the man of action seldom ez-:presses his thoughts in words, but every one carries his soul with him when he faces the ultimate. Things have been written by men at the front which are part of the treasure of our race. Men who have gone through storms at sea have always realized the greatness of God and the TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 littleness of man, and there can be no doubt that our gallant airmen, with their wide horizons and incredible speed, have had the same experience. That master-phrasemaker, Winston Churchill, paid this fine tribute to our airman: Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few. The men who have heard the call of contact and the rush of the soaring plane have saved civilization. History re- sounds with illustrious names of individuals who have given all, yet their sacrifice has resulted in the making and pre- servation of the British Empire. It will be a consolation to those Canadians who have given their sons to the Empire's service to remember that they lived and died as Britishers. Nor can anything ever change that.-Globe and Mail, Dec. 16. LINCOLN Lines written for the 132nd Anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, celebrated by the citizens of Springfield, Illinois. By E. J. Pratt So long as light shall shine upon a world Which has a human saga for the lyre, A pennant at a masthead left unfurled, A name, a title to be writ in flreg So long as there is drama on the earth And the wild pulses leap to the grand themes That dignify our voyaging from birth To death along the highway of our dreams, This name shall be a symbol for the free Life of the race, for ours as yours--for blood And toil and sweat, for tears salt as the sea, For patience and valour flowering from the mud. Lincoln! Your voice was graven on those granite speeches Rallying the squadrons on the Dunkirk beaches. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD AIRMEN FROM OVERSEAS By Laurence Binyon Who are these that come from the ends of the oceans, Coming as the Swallows come out of the South In the glory of Spring? They are come among us With purpose in the eyes, with a smile on the mouth. These are they who have left the familiar faces, Sights, sounds and scents of familiar land, Taking no care for security promised aforetime, Sweetness of home and the future hope had planned. A lode-star has drawn them, Britain, standing alone Clear in the darkness, not to be overcome, Though the huge masses of hate are hurled against her, Wherever the spirit of freedom breathes, is Home. Soon are they joined with incomparable comrades Britain's flower and Britain's pride, Against all odds, despising the boastful Terror, On joyous wings in the ways of the wind they ride. From afar they battle for our ancient island, Soaring and pouncing, masters of the skies. They are heard in the night by the lands betrayed and captive, And a throbbing of hope to their thunder replies. To dare incredible things, from the ends of ocean Thcy are coming and coming, over the perilous seas. How shall we hail them? Truly there are no words And no song worthy of these. Reprinted from the London Telegraph I Kindly sent by Lieut. C. F. Brack.J TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 THE WORK OF THE BRITISH INTELLIGENCE IN EUROPE Mr. K. S. Cate, father of a Junior School boy, spoke to the staff and boys of the J .S. during a brief visit on Sun- day, January 18th. Mr. Cate had lived in France for twenty years and was in Brittany when the Nazi invasion occurred. Shortly before Christmas he escaped from occu- pied France and eventually was able to return to the United States by way of Portugal. He told the boys many amazing accounts of his ex- periences and stated how impressed he had been with the British Intelligence Service. He related. how, on one occasion, certain orders of the day from a German commandant were announced in a village square at five o'clock in the afternoon. These pro- claimed that all local residents must keep away from the sea coast on the following day as the German artillery was holding manoeuvres in that area. The next morning at nine o'clock the Royal Air Force flew over and dropped pamphlets printed in French, announcing that the villagers must certainly keep away from the sea coast as it was their intention to pay a visit to the German artillery while they were holding their exercises. In sixteen hours the British Intelligence Service had been able to convey this information to England, have the pamphlets printed in French and get the Royal Air Force to return with their leaflets to the original area in occupied France. We were told also how the Germans, much to their annoyance, had found that the British seemed to have an uncanny knowledge of the exact whereabouts of their various supposedly secret and camouflaged aerodromes and oil depots. Each time an aerodrome was nicely completed along came the British and bombed it until it was quite unuseable. In a certain area of northern occupied France the Nazis planned to outwit the British by erecting a dummy airport 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD reasonably close to a proper one they were constructing with great secrecy nearby. The local residents were, of course, quite unaware of what the Germans were doing, except that there was great activity within a certain for- bidden area. Then Our speaker told us how he had dis- covered, while bicycling along a road behind some German army trucks. a wooden frame built to resemble a German fighter plane with swastika markings on it. Only then did Mr. Cate suspect that the Germans were constructing a false airport in the hope of drawing the British bombers from their real target. He made later discoveries that proved his suspicions. At first, apparently, bits of derelict French planes had been strewn about behind a half-camou- flage hoping that the Royal Air Force would be deceived. This ruse had not been successful so the Germans covered the Wooden frames to attract the British. After some weeks of intense activity the work suddenly stopped. Appar- ently both the real aerodrome and the false one had been completed. The Germans did not have long to wait. Soon the Royal Air Force bombers appeared and dropped their bombs-real bombs on the real aerodrome and Wooden bombs on the dummy aerodrome. Our speaker did not indicate the extent of the Nazis' chagrin. On yet another occasion the Germans spent months in erecting a carefully camouiiaged gasoline supply depot. First, a great area of wire supported by poles was strung up. On this was placed a large quantity of brush to make it appear like a wood from the air. Then scores of steel tanks were put in position and a hidden road built to the supply. No British plane was seen by Mr. Cate during the construction of this depot but hardly had it been opened for use than a bomber came over and blew the whole depot up with a few well-placed explosions. Such stories give us great contidence in the ability of our Intelligence Service. ' TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 A GREAT SCIENTIST The biography of the late Reginald A. Fessenden C'77-'Sell written by Helen Fessenden, has recently been issued and a copy has been sent to the School by C. V. Fessenden of Toronto. We have long known that Fessen- den was one of our most distinguished Old Boys, but this keenly interesting and informative book makes us realize to the full the amazing powers of scientific invention and development which Fessenden had and used for the per- fection of the modern radio and other types of communica- tion. Some of Fessenden's achievements are summarized on the jacket of the book. They include: C11 He first spanned the Atlantic with two-way radio. C21 He invented the wireless telephone. C33 He made the first radio broad- cast in history. C41 He invented the Fathometer Cdepth inderl. C51 He originated the submarine telephone. C61 He solved the problem of the U-boat menace in the last war. C75 He pioneered in short-wave radio. C81 He originated the turbo-electric drive for battleships. C93 He was granted over 500 patents in various fields, especially in the transmission of light, sound, and electric waves. The book tells the tale of a great scientist whose mind was always on his work and who had no patience with the little men who could think only of commercial possibilities and profits to be derived from inventions. It is stated that Fessenden's radio patents were seized by a signalling company for which he was working and later sold for the sum of three million dollars. Some of Fessenden's letters from T.C.S. in the early days are full of interest. In February, 1877, he writes: I picked up two bits of iron with holes in them and While looking through one of the holes I discovered something. By arranging the bits of iron and looking through the holes I can find the exact distance of anything from me ..... His inventive faculty was already beginning to show itself at the age of eleven years. 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In a speech in London in 1910, Fessenden said this: The only thing that really matters, materially as well as spiritually, on this earth, are its men. It is not the so-called 'natural resources' which should be conserved but the Administrators, Discoverers, Organizers, the men who give those resources their value. Given the men, they will create all the natural resources necessary out of what- ever may be at hand. Again, All our civilization is based on invention. Be- fore invention, men lived on roots and nuts and pine cones and slept in caves. Speaking of families of inventors, he says: Sir Charles Parsons invented the steam turbine and other important devices. His son, a young man of remarkable ability, had made a number of inventions and would have made many more without a doubt, but that he was killed in the war. Parsons' son, Kipling's son, Osler's C66-'77l son,- as I think over the long list I am not sure but that the greatest evil of the war is that to come, the loss to the time which should have been theirs of the work these brilliant young men should have done. The whole chapter on Invention with its many quot- ations from Fessenden's writings is an important con- tribution to the literature of science. R. A. Fessenden died in 1932- Next day his great spirit had passed, merged, as it seems to me it must be, in the vast controlling force of the universe. The School and the Dominion are indeed proud to count him as one of their sons. His widow has done an immensely important work in preparing this detailed bio- graphy: it was a work which needed to be done for she has now added to the world's store of knowledge the life story of one of the world's most important inventors. 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 EXCERPTS FROM LETTERS OF OLD BOYS ON ACTIVE SERVICE L. R. McLernon, D.S.C., Sub-Lieut., R.C.N.V.R. I have a somewhat responsible job now as first officer on one of His Majesty's minor war vessels CEB150,000J. In fact, according to tradition, etc., I have to do nearly all the work. The ship, although just over 100 feet, is run on the same lines as a destroyer: and with my limited knowledge and experience, I am supposed to get the thing in lighting trim. Which means plenty! Up to the present I have been standing by a depot ship at .... waiting for the ship to near completion. I had to keep the crew C12 menl amused and busy, which meant keeping me busy. In my spare time I had to swat up Signalling C5 different typesl, Gunnery, Torpedo, Depth Charges, Submarine Attack Cwhich as you know involves plentyl, Engines and Transmissions, Ship Construction, Seamanship, Wireless Telegraphy, establish ship routine and action stations. Besides the above and others, I have to be a blasted accountant, and play around with hundreds of quadru- plicate forms and red tape. In short, I am directly re- sponsible for the fighting efficiency and cruising efficiency of the ship. It is one thing to study and pass exams on all the above, but quite another to get them all working practically. It beats me how the admiralty hands out a S150,000 unit, with all confidence, to the comparatively in- experienced. It is quite needless to mention that I am happy, as I have never had such a swell time in all my life il if if IF Il: I have not as yet been to Buckingham Palace. The Investiture only takes place on the first Tuesday of each month, and, up to date I haven't been able to get there for the occasion. 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Down in ..... we used to have quite a few air raids, about four a day. We were straddled several times at home and at sea, but very little serious damage was accomplished. One gets very philosophical about this bombing business, and although a bit scaring at the time, the Nazi bombers are considered with disgust rather than respect. I have had my nose in the gutter more than once while walking about, but after a couple of minutes the incident is invariably forgotten. The Boche can't terrify the public by bombs, can't lick our army or navy with bombs, so with all due respect and sympathy to those made homeless, they can keep on wast- ing their time as long as they like. fi: Il? if if PF I have had many and varying interesting experiences. One can't exist in the Navy over here or in any other ser- vice without seeing all kinds of things daily. For instance, I have been out in the American destroyers, the largest sub. in the world CFrench onel, the Cherbourg naval bombardment and all kinds and conditions of things and circumstances. My travelling experience has extended from Iceland to Africa, with all kinds of visits in between. And if Fortune favours me, I hope to be in a warmer water zone during the winter. 1 Q If 1 8 Up to this point I haven't been sea-sick. However, I won't commit myself for the future. My new type of ship is a real devil at sea, and is bound to shake the stuffing out of anything-sooner or later. It is rather ironical to look at the very comfortable quarters f almost luxuriousl in harbour and then go out in a sea with the thing. It is really terrific-but lots of fun for a while if you can take it TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD George Renison C33-'38J, Lieut., 48th Highlanders Tonight I received the October issue of the RECORD and read it from cover to cover. In peace time news travels quickly and smoothly and information in the RECORD is really a comfortable re- statement of news long known by heart. Not so now. Most of the news in it is a scoop as far as we, or rather I, am concerned. I missed the sadistic pleasure of getting two quarters for reading it in study. Though there are many Old Boys over here it is difficult to get news of them or to find out where they are. The first impression the RECORD leaves in my mind is that you have a rugby team called LeMesurier and Som- erville. Either that or they have great admirers on the editorial staff. I would have liked to see the team in action as it appears to be a very good machine. I have been intending to write to you for months now, but restrictions on what we have to say discourage letters. I have seen a few grim sights, a great deal of suffer- ing and unhappiness, but as yet am not closely enough affected by the war to have been caught up in its whirl. I still feel rather like a player on the bench waiting for that wonderful moment when his chance comes and he plunges into the game. I was in France and saw her last few days, returning to England when things looked unbelievably bad. During this time my brother was shot down in France, later to turn up a prisoner. In spite of all this, I was only a spectator and still am. Like thousands of others here we lack the opportunity of participating in the active part of the war at the present time. This is most annoying but I think our chance will come soon now-hope so any- how. When it does then I will get mixed up in the whirl I spoke of and only my own little part of the war will stand out. I have been in London several times since the Blitz began and it is still a city full of attraction, and unhurt. It 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD has been bombed very heavily and unmercifully, but will take a lot of knocking down. The conditions to which people will adapt themselves are truly amazing and ex- ceedingly amusing at times. For example, I took a beauti- ful young lady to dinner one night, who was wearing a lovely fur evening wrap with a tin hat and respirator. It is quite common now to see the dignity of the Temple dashing along on bikes still wearing their wigs and gowns. The Savoy Hotel, probably one of the finest in Europe, has the top blown off, yet in the basement you can get the best dinner in England, marvellous cooking and no appar- ent restriction of food Cexcept butterl. One night my hotel was hit in the far corner from me. About ten minutes later they phoned up to stay they were sorry to disturb me but if my light bulbs were broken they would send me up some new ones. The English are a very obstinate race! In my regiment we have many Old Boys, of whom Fred McLaren and Bill Leadbeater were at the School with me. We frequently speak of the School. I saw Jock Maynard about a month ago, all dressed up in gold and blue. He is out on a special naval job-the same as Pat Strathy was on. Many times I have thought of the School over here, of the fun I had and the friends I made there. During my wandcrings over here we took over a huge girls' school and it was quite like old times. I lived in the matron's room and shudder to think what she would have thought if she could have walked through the rooms with me on my rounds. The winter here has not really started, and though it is nearly Christmas I do not feel Christmassy yet. By the time you get my letter I suppose that a new term will have begun and hockey will be in full swing. I am orderly officer tonight and as I am writing Ken White has come in. He sends the School his best. It is a quiet night here with a lovely moon and a bright clear TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 sky. Apparently there is not going to be any war tonight -it is much too calm and quiet. Please remember me to the Common Room and to all my friends around the School. L Bim Waters C36-'39J, Midshipman, R.C.N. I'm just dropping a line because I think you might be interested in what I'm doing. After we had iinished half a year's preliminary train- ing at Dartmouth two other Canadians from R.M.C. and myself took a long journey and joined our ship east of Suez . When the Italians entered the war we came up to the Mediterranean and have been busy ever since. We've been in action three times and been bombed nearly every day at sea. My action station is in the Air Defense Position which is quite high up, so that I have a marvellous view of all the proceedings. As Assistant Air Defense Officer I control the H.A. CHigh Anglel firing of the ship. However, between dive-bombing attacks I've managed to take a few snapshots which I will show you when I get back to Canada. If I'm lucky it should be in 1942 some time. Give my regards to the masters and boys at school. Midshipman D. M. Waters, R.C.N., H.M.S. Liverpool, c-o G.P.O. London, Eng. Paul LeBro0y C36-'39J, Private, Royal 22nd. Regiment Many days have flowed under the bridge of time since I last wrote to you on board the ship Oronsay that brought us to England. At the mouth of the Clyde about four miles up the river to Glasgow we were taken off the boats in tenders and disembarked at the small town of Greenock. From there we travelled from three o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock next morning by train. During the night we 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD passed many towns, many of which had air-raid warnings going at that time. Our destination was a place called Camp Borden about twelve miles west of Aldershot. I suppose we spent a week there drilling with the 2nd Holding Unit of the 22nd before we joined the 3rd Reconnaissance Squadron and were shipped down to a place called Horsley about eight miles south-west of Guilford. After four days we again moved and are at present billeted in big evacuated houses somewhere in England. A young Air Force pilot told me the other day of his experience in London. The German planes ily over all night and much of the day. At night the sky above Lon- don is but a sheet of flame, much like a terrific electrical storm with its clouds of thunder continually pounding at your ear. The sky above is alive With searchlights and in spots with the bursting of ack-ack shells. Now to tell you something about our present job. Do you remember in the German invasion of the Low Coun- tries and of France how often you heard of German motor- bikes with machine guns preceding the advancing army and contacting our troops and dashing back. Sometimes a single motor-bike captured a whole town. Do you re- member Abbeville on the French coast where one of them captured the train station and wireless station? There were numerous engagements throughout the German advance on France that they figured. The Allies had seen nothing quite like it and had absolutely nothing to com- pare with it. It was not until early August that General McNaughton decided to copy them, with the result that the three brigades of the Canadians here have a recon- naissance squadron. We belong to the 3rd., the most advanced of the three, I believe. Our troop of abouti cycles has a job that consists in contacting the advancing or retreating enemy troops, of mapping and reconnoitring the section of ground or country we are advancing on, of settling enemy paraehutists wherever they may land: TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 rushing to the aid of those in need fsoldiersj 5 and of firing on attacking aeroplanes as our gun is able to fire every- where and anywhereg of bringing messages in time of need. A reconnaissance bike consists of a powerful Indian fU.S.A.J motor-bike with a side car. There are three men to a bike. The driverg the spare driver seated behind the driver and the Bren Gunner seated in the side-car with his Bren gun. The driver and the Bren Gunner each carry a revolver while the spare driver carries a sniper's rifle and a Tommy Gun. The spare driver's job is to load the Bren Gun while the Gunner firesg also to take the driver's place if killed or wounded. At present I am a spare driver while Peter is the Gunner. But we switch around a great deal. Just before writing this letter about two dozen German planes flew over. It was a marvellous sight to see nghts going on, up high in the blue haze. All one can see is one lot of silver streaks chasing other lots while they twisted and turned amongst the puffs of fluffy clouds. Three bombs were dropped the other night rather close by. Peter and I were both asleep at that time, but they tell us that the bombs, which must have been big ones, absolutely shook the house on its foundations. Most of the bombs that Germans have dropped about us have been incendiary bombs. At night it is quite easy to tell the diiference between an English plane and an enemy one. The former is an even drone while the latter has an alter- nate drone. On the way over, just about two days out of this side, we were fortunate enough to get one submarine and prob- ably another. Some say two others. The general atmo- sphere of this whole country is most pleasing and refresh- ing, both in mind and body, if you understand me. For one thing there is a delightful and novel fall to us here. The fields are just as green as they can be, yet the leaves are just beginning to fall. The trees are of many varieties and seem to be just absolutely showing off their age, 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD grandeur and beauty, while all about you the warm fall breezes whisper that this is a country well worth defend- ing. Then there are the lovely houses of thatch, not two alike, and the many bridle paths intertwining the woods and glades about them. Unfortunately, many of these woods have been spoilt by troop encampments, tank traps and gun emplacements. The people you meet, no matter where you are, are all the same, in that they have the same spirit, both of defiance to Hitler in spite of the many tribulations they are enduring, and of the desire to see this through. In Russia they used the closed fist, in Germany and Italy they have their straight arm and extended fingers, While in England they have their thumbs up. It is really comical to an outsider to see this, but typical of the English spirit. Our life here is extremely interesting and easy. We do nothing when it is raining and lately it has been raining quite a deal, especially at Horsley where we slept under canvas for about four days. There we slept on the ground with three blankets and a ground sheet, eight in a tent with absolutely no room to spare. It is surprising how quickly one can get dirty sleeping on the ground. You sleep in your uniform, shave in cold water, and are sup- posed to keep yourself tidy and boots clean while playing on motor-bikes all day. The defenses of this country are really terrific. I cannot mention much about them but I can say I pity poor Hitler if he attempts to conquer England. I think he had better try the most northerly innermost part of Greenland first to see if he can succeed there. Well! If he can he might have a chance here. Of course no letter would be complete without a demand for something: socks, warm mitts, cigarettes and letters head the list, while addresses and introductions to friends in England give them a close second. Whenever we go out we must carry our gas-masks at all times, but we must be careful never to overstay our TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 passes, which we get very often. Until recently we got six hours off every two days. That is only in the Recces , where we are rather spoilt. The reason we do not take an A.W.L. is that we are severely punished. Four fellows the other day got two months without pay for being absent three hours. Rather stiff, eh what! When and if the invasion takes place we go into ac- tion immediately ahead of our regiment. Church bells begin to ring all over the country notifying the public. Two days ago we- were inspected by the Duke of Gloucester, who had never seen anything like us. I had the extreme honour of being asked by the Major to demon- strate and explain to His Highness the manoeuverability and firing power of the Bren mounted on the side car. I was then asked to pose for four pictures as if in action behind the gun. R. P. Beatty C35-'38J, Ordinary Seaman, R.C.N.V.R. Last Saturday, about midnight, when all of us in my division were peacefully sleeping in our hammocks, an order came over the loud-speaker for us to muster in the gymnasium. We knew something was up , and sure enough it turned out that a German raider had been sight- ed in the South Atlantic. Seven fincluding mel were taken from the division to replace seven men adrift from a certain destroyer. As we were to set sail immediately, we were told to bring only our micks -hammocks-with us and to wrap up as warmly as possible. She was an American destroyer and, as this type has bunks, we had no use for our micks , so just stowed them away when we got on board. We pulled out of the harbour next morn- ing in the wee small hours. My job at the time was to tighten up the anchor cable. As you know, this is right up in the very eyes of the ship, but I was very lucky indeed because, since the weather was exceptionally calm, I wasn't bothered with waves brushing over me. The crew was 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD divided into three watches which meant that my watch worked four hours for every eight off. The trip was fine, and great experience for me, looking at it from a purely selfish point of view-getting my hand in at everything from peeling potatoes in the galley flat for four hours to keeping look-out on the flying bridge. We didn't turn back until we had gone far enough south to feel the warm air of the Gulf Stream--blue, blue water too, not to men- tion any names. None of the flotilla sighted the raiders, so we saw no action, but had plenty of calls to action stations, at which times I formed one of the gun's crew- a high-angle gun in the very stern. During most of the trip we sped along at thirty knots, but on our way back we hit a storm and had to slow down to six. This, incident- ally, caused the fresh water supply to run very low, not to mention soft drinks, cigarettes, etc., from the canteen. We put back to port next day, however, at noon Christmas day, and got ashore scarcely in time to get cleaned up for our turkey dinner at the barracks. fWasn't sea-sick by the wayl. Spent a very enjoyable Christmas with my chums down here, but the most dreadful fire broke out the next morning about two o'clock. After taking our valuables out of our own C block, Duncan lTorontoJ Division did the best we could in helping the town firemen with their hose lines, which tended to get tangled up in the rubble. I'm afraid E and F blocks, which were right next to my block, except for a small shipright's building, were razed to the ground. Almost all the fellows quartered in these barracks lost their complete kits which were stowed in their lockers, as all the buildings here are wooden and it took practically no time for theirs to burst up in flames, the terrific heat giving them no time to linger. When I was working in the bucket brigade huge sparks as big as embers floated down on us as thick as snow. Well, enough of this, my block was saved, which was my chief worry. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 Tig ,l in + + , f' if Contributions as UNKNOWN HERO An Incident of the War in France It was a fine morning at the front. Much too fine , thought Louis Renauld when he climbed out of his sleep- ing-bag. He remembered the losses suffered the previous day from the German dive bombers, when the Weather was equally bright. Louis was a typical Frenchman. He was small, black- haired. A stranger would not have thought that such a brave soul could be in such a small body. Louis did not think he was very brave. He did not think at all, to be truthful. Why should he philosophize when bombs and shells were dropping in a steady rain? But he had, as a typical Frenchman, many deep feelings. One of them was his intense love for France. He did not hate the Germans but he knew that he must throw them out of France. His heart told him that. It was about tive o'olock in the morning. The com- pany wasxsituated in a shallow camouflaged ditch. The camouflage did not help very much though, as a big bomb had hit the ground a few feet from the ditch, burying the company under a rain of earth, stones and Wood. The ditch was somewhere at the Front , in some- thing that had once been a wood. But now it was one that would have softened the hardest heart. Lots of iight- ing had taken place in it. First the Germans took it, but . 4 if - I . 44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the French recaptured it-not for long though. Finally it fell entirely into French hands. It had cost a great many lives to buy this wood. But who thought of that now? Not even the soldiers. Some weeks ago they were still soft and did not feel well when they saw a bullet hitting a man. Now they were as tough as their fathers had been twenty-uve years ago. They slept with indifference in a place that was saturated with blood. Now and then a shell hit the wood, lifting tons of earth and making a still greater mess. Louis and his company did not even bother about looking at the planes or watching shells hitting the ground. They could not wash this morning, as it was dangerous to leave the shelter. And a man could more usefully be killed fighting against the enemy than in washing himself. After a very short meal Louis and three other men were ordered to patrol down the stream to see whether any enemy outposts were there. The four cautiously left the shelter and crawled in Red Indian fashion through the forest towards the stream. The stream was about half a mile away and it was quite a task to climb over trees and bushes and cada- vers. They had not gone far when a heavy shelling started. That was not all. German planes came over, wave after wave. And the regular hell started again. They took shelter under a fallen tree. Bombs hit left and right. It was not so much fear of being killed as the noise that ruin- ed the nerves. They were already toughened to it but still they start- ed to get closer and closer to a breakdown. Louis made a sign, as it was impossible to hear one another in that in- ferno. The sign was clear. Out . The others nodded. Any- thing but remain there without movement. They left the shelter and pushed slowly ahead under the heavy shelling. Miraculously none was hit. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 Suddenly they heard a noise that stopped their heart beats. It was a rattling, regular as a Watch, never stopping, like small shells exploding--tanks. Their Brst thought was back, whatever the cost. But they were too far away to get back before the tanks reach- ed them. It would cost the same to stand and iight, like David against Goliath. Louis looked into the faces of his comrades. They were pale and sad, but terribly determined. And no sign of fear was visible. Louis threw his rifle away and the others followed his example. The rifle was of no use any more. A rifle bullet would not even scratch a tank. Soon they came, like big beasts of the Stone age, going over everything with a slow but steady movement, leaving the mark of their destruction on every inch of soil they crossed-like merciless devices out to eat men. Louis knew his last moment had arrived. It had been a good world as long as it had lasted. He summed up all the tender memories of a lifetime in this one moment. He thought of his old mother and of his sweetheart. She was working now maybe. Maybe she was still sleeping, dream- ing of her Louis coming home on leave in two weeks. The tanks advanced all the while, slowly, cruelly. Louis made a quick prayer. The tanks were about fifty yards away, opening fire on the men lying behind rocks and trees. Louis jumped up. Vive la France! he shouted, throwing his hand-grenade. The men did the sameg the battle lasted exactly five seconds. Then the tanks advanced slowly over a mass that had once been human beings- who had known joy and sorrow in their lives-were good and intelligent just like many others. The communique for that sector said: One patrol failed to return .

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT The last night of thc Michaelmas Term, after the Christmas dinner, with traditional ceremonies, in the Hall, the School enjoyed a variety entertainment in the Gym. where the stage had once more been erected. The principal play was a melodrama, Curse You, Jack Dalton , very well produced by Mrs. Maier. Some promising new dramatic talent was discovered: in particular, Dodd and Charrington demonstrated that capable actors of wo- men's parts are again in our midst. The play relies for its laughs on the serious ill presentation of the old-time highly-coloured melodramatic material. and it certainly got them. A new ensemble was Fletcher Duggan's Band , which the audience had the misfortune of hearing once or twice between the wise-cracks and various interruptions which we still think must have been part of the act. Nothing scored a greater success than the presenta- tion by the smallest J .S. boys of Hansel and Gretel, direct- ed by Miss Honor Gibson. Special tributes should be paid to Mrs. Wright for the wonderful Christmas dinner-and for the refreshments which enabled players and stage-hands to survive. Here is a copy of the programme:- 1.

FIRST DEBATE January 30th., 1941 The motion: That the United States should imme- diately declare war on Germany. Armour and Campbell were the leading speakers for the government. Armour spoke on the value of such a move on British morale, and Campbell pointed out that a U.S. declaration of war would throw that country's war production into high gear, and would put an end to any idleness on the part of war industry. Hare i. and Holton were the chief speakers for the opposition. They pointed out that full aid to Britain could only be possible as long as the U.S. did not have to arm herself for a sudden war. Draper and Dalton spoke for the opposition. Mackintosh spoke in defense of the government but in the heat of debate he slightly re-worded the motion that the U.S. should immediately declare war on Britain! The motion was defeated 59 to 17. , 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD SECOND DEBATE February ern., 1941. The motion: Resolved that it is in the best interests of World Peace that Germany should, on being defeated in this war, be divided into six states . German, speaking for the government, opened the de- bate by pointing out: That as to our winning the war there is no doubt, but that the most important thing is to win the Peace. He laid the blame, for the present state of affairs, on Prussia, which part of Germany, he said, should especially be divided from the rest. Tate, the other speaker for the government, elaborated on the material covered by the Iirst speaker. Sutherland, speaking Hrst for the opposition, argued that breaking up Germany would only cause resentment, and might tend to cause another quarrel with the Demo- cracies. Kovacs was the second opposition speaker. He covered German history from Bismarck to present times, and insisted that dividing the country up would only lead to tariff barriers and economic chaos within Germany. Col. Stevenson spoke from the floor, for the govern- ment and in a very interesting speech, he reminded us of how cruel and absolutely dishonest are the Prussians. Others to speak from the floor were Higgins for the govern- ment, and Clarke and Hare i. for the opposition. The motion was defeated by a vote of 28 to 20. - ,clff-gg-:L o ?i?3'7f ,f , ' . ai .J 'cf -4- ij: 55.2 lg , - .fs--eb' 1. ' Til - 2 ..5 ul '.: -' I-zh. slr nv 1 - H n --,-,,.gi:g- ll llllll .

In their first game of the year, the School emerged victorious to the tune of 6-2. The ice surface was rather slow, but nevertheless good hockey was displayed. The first period was very exciting, there being no score. The School, however, carried the play most of the time. In the second period both teams opened up. Ross started the ball rolling for the Zetes by scoring on a pretty solo effort. Goodall then evened things up, only to see Allen bang Zeta Psi into the lead again. Before long, how- ever, Cawley and Somerville gave T.C.S. the lead for the Iirst time. In the third stanza the School definitely carried the play, scoring three goals. Somerville, Goodall and Cald- well were the marksmen. Allen and Lindsay were outstanding for the visitors. While Duggan ma. and Somerville were the most effective for the School.

The first period was Very even, Urquhart scoring for the Grove and McLean for T.C.S. In the second period, however, the School ran wild to pile up a 7-1 lead on goals by Somerville 127, Duggan ma. 121, Spence and Fleming.

Caldwell f3l, Duggan ma. f2l, Jones max., and Goodall were the Maroon and Black marksmen, while Urquhart tallied for the home team. Urquhart and Roberts shone for the Groveg Duggan ma. and Caldwell were outstanding for the School. SCHOOL vs. KAPPA ALPHA At Port Hope, February lst. A short-handed School team defeated Kappa Alpha Fraternity, Toronto, by the score of 6-4. Handicapped by the loss of two regular forwards, who were replaced by defencemen, T.C.S. drew first blood when Duggan ma. scored unassisted. Lind of Kappa Alpha soon tied the game up, and shortly afterwards Whitting- ham put the Kapps in the lead. School retaliated quick- ly, however, when Somerville scored. Just before the end of the first period Parke tallied to put Kappa Alpha ahead once again. In the second stanza Spence tallied on a pass from Jones max, for T.C.S. and shortly afterwards Somerville of T.C.S. scored unassisted. Lind again evened the score at 4-4.

The first scorer was Lang, of S.A.C., who tallied on a pass from Hueston ma. Macmillan then countered for S.A.C. on a brilliant solo effort. Just before the horn sounded Goodall scored from the left board to cut the Saints' lead to 2-1. In the second period the School carried the play and Went ahead 3-2 on goals by Fleming and Goodall. In the third frame S.A.C. ran wild, scoring four goals to the School's two. Goodall opened the scoring in the period for T.C.S. but the School lead was soon jeopordized when Silliman scored for S.A.C., assisted by Hueston ma. Things again looked rosy when Caldwell scored to put the School ahead 5-3. However S.A.C. pressed very hard and were rewarded with three fine goals, two by MacMillan and the winner by Hueston ma., with one minute of play remaining.

As a result we have enjoyed a full month of real winter weather giving full opportunity for daily hockey practices and occa- sional efforts at skiing and tobogganing. The hockey squad is divided into three groups: Bigside, Middleside and Be- ginners. The above names are not strictly accurate either, as a considerable number of beginners are sufficiently skill- ed to be members of Middleside. We have been greatly pleased to see how rapidly some of those skating for the first time have improved. Up to the time of writing the first team has played two School games, the first with Upper Canada Prep. here on Saturday, February the iirst. This was an extra- ordinarily exciting game with the score ending at five all after ten minutes overtime. At full time the score stood at four all. The Junior School team all played well to keep a strong Upper Canada team from emerging as victors. The Jimior School had two disallowed goals which added to the excitement of the game.

The second match was played with Lakefield here on Wednesday, February 5th. This game resulted in a win for the School by a score of 4-0. Lakefield was not able to put out quite such a fast team as they usually do and this match was considerably less exciting than the one of the previous Saturday. The following boys represented the Junior School in the two School matches played to date: Howard CCapt.l, Decker, Sutcliffe, Briden, Higginbotham, Dignam, Perry, Hope, Gibson and Thompson i. Three practice games with the S. S. have also been played: two against the Littleside B and one with the Littleside team. The first with the B team was a tie at four allg the second a win at 4-2. Littleside won rather handily by a score of 9-3. CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT As has been the custom for the past few years, the Junior School joined with the Senior School for their annual Christmas dinner on the eve of the Christmas vaca- tion. After What can only be termed a sumptuous repast the entire School adjourned to the gymnasium for the usual plays and entertainment. The Junior School con- tributed two plays to the programme, both of which, We feel, were highly successful. The first was called A Nasty Christmas Party . This was written and produced by Mr. Austin Edwards. In the play Hitler falias Santa Claus! and his ten satellites strutted boldly onto the stage and exchanged Christmas gifts f'?J for puns. Caldwell, who played Hitler, and Bovaird, Nazi Number One, carried the heaviest parts. The other members of the cast supported them nobly. A messenger with a present from the Royal Air Force in the form of a bomb effectually broke up the party. 70 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL The cast of the play follows:- Hitler Calias Santa Clausl ,....., Nazi 1 .,..........,.,..................................... .......

We did appreciate hearing from Commodore Murray about some of the unpublished details of the exploits and work of the Senior Service. Commodore Murray is the father of Murray of Form IA. Another interesting talk was given by Mr. K. S. Cate, father of Cate of the Preparatory Form. Mr. Cate has recently returned from occupied France and some of his stories concerning the German occupation of France, and his own subsequent escape, were positively thrilling. The acquisition of twenty new beds for the Junior School has brought a new luxury to the boys of dormi- tories C and F. It is hoped that before long all the old beds will be replaced. The Junior School attended the local movie theatre and saw Night Train to Munich on Saturday, January 11.

The combination of snow and darkness had reduced visibility to a minimum and as there was no proper road in that part of the country he frequently stumbled and tripped. Well , he said, I guess I'm properly lost now. Why on earth would the car have to break down in a place like this '? He had attempted to Walk on along the road in hope of finding some human habitation but he had wander- ed off it in the dark. Suddenly, to his surprise, he saw a light ahead. He moved slowly towards it and when he got there he saw that the light was issuing from a small hut of ramshackle appearance. He knocked on the door but there was no answer. Then, just as he was about to enter, the light went out and he was left in total dark- ness. He thought for a moment and then made up his mind. If he stayed outside he would be frozen to death, so he might as well go in. He pulled the door open and went in. It was dark and draughty and it was only with difficulty that he was able to strike a match and survey his surroundings. There was a rude bed, an obviously home-made table, and an ancient stool. Then, as his match died down, he saw a candle on the table. He lit it and was carefully examining the room when he felt something touch his shoulder and he spun around with a cry. What he saw would make the bravest man cry out. The man who faced him was horrible to see. His cheeks were hollow and his eyes were sunken. His long, tangled, matted hair fell almost to his shoulders and what clothing he wore hung in rotting rags over his gaunt body. I think I know you , muttered the apparition. You are Richard Egow, the banker . Yes, yes, stammered the terrified man. What of it? TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 In 1931, Went on the owner of the hut, I was the proud possessor of a comfortable house in New York and I had a wife and baby son. Then came the stock market crash. I had a mortgage on my house and could not meet the payments. My mortgage was foreclosed. I had to move into a poorly heated tenement: that winter my child died. Next spring my wife died. I swore vengeance on the man Who foreclosed that mortgage, and that man was Richard Egow, the banker. Three years later some surveyers came upon a little hut in the backwoods of Maine, and in the hut they found a skeleton, a knife in its ribs, and pinned to it by the knife was a faded piece of paper on which was written: He Laughs Best Who Laughs Last. -Hmm- Howard TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD CHRISTMAS EXAMINATIONS: 1940.

PRAYER IN USE IN THE CHAPEL FOR OLD BOYS ON ACTIVE SERVICE 0 Almighty God, who art wiser than the children of men and overrulest all things to their go0d, hold, we beseech Thee, in Thy keeping all who have gone forth to battle from this School: watch over those that are missing: comfort and protect those in the hands of the enemy. Be with them in the hour of danger, strengthen them ln the hour of weakness, sustain and comfort them in the hour of sickness or of death. Grant that they may be true to their calling and true always to Thee, and make both them and us to be strong to do our duty in Thy service, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

FREEDOM'S CROWNING HOUR As, in Canada, we each seek to serve as best we can, let us not be misled into believing that because we have not been assigned some special role, our contribution in effort or in saving may be too slight to be of value to so great a cause. It is for each one to seek out for himself, in the circumstances in which he finds himself, how he can best play his part. Example sufficiently inspiring will surely be found in the lives of the' men and women of Britain. Neither let us be dismayed at the magnitude of the task, nor discouraged by the length of the road. Across the centuries, there come to us, as there came to the defenders of the faith in ancient days, words which have sustained the human heart in all its struggles: Let us not be weary in well-douingg for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Ye, that have faith to look with fearrless eyes Beyond' the tragedy of a world at strife, And know that out of death and night shall rise The dawn of ampler life, Rejoice, whatever anguish rend your heart, That God has given you the priceless dower To live in these great times and bear your part In Freedom's crowning hour, That ye may tell your sons who see the light High in the heavens-their heritage to take, I saw the powers of darkness put to flight, I saw the morning break.

Last March 15th at a meeting of the O.B.A. in Tor- onto, an Old Boy spoke of the way in which the Record is appreciated by the members and non-members alike of the Association. He said there is something in it to appeal to the young, the middle-aged, and the old O.B.'s We feel the letters and news sent in by their old schoolmates are particularly interesting to them. So we thank our Old Boys who have Written, and hope that they, and others, will continue to send us those letters, so appreciated by our readers. -C.I.P.T. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Ill x U' . F MU' L, HAPEL1, UTES On Sunday, February 16th, the Chaplain preached the sermon. His text was taken from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Philippians, Chapter IV, Verse 8: He told us that St. Paul never wrote his Epistles him- self, but dictated them to stenographers. It must have been difficult for them to take down his letters, because his thoughts were too quick for his speech, and few sentences had a proper ending. St. Paul had two principles in his letters. The first was devotion to God, the second, devotion to those to whom he is writing. He loved the Philippians and hoped that they would live up to his first principle. He went on to tell the Philippians that they should not be contented with second bests, and that right think- ing is judgment in life. Paul's message added that they should despise terminology and love righteousness. The Chaplain concluded by saying that we are all meant to be Christians, and to serve the same Master. Our duty is to translate the language of Christianity into our own language. In nineteen hundred years, this message has remained unchanged. To be Christians we have to pray to God to cleanse our hearts. We also have to re- frain from making vulgar statements and setting false standards for ourselves. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 On Sunday, February 23rd, Provost Cosgrave of Trin- ity College, Toronto was the preacher in Chapel. He spoke about the three oddly named Sundays pre- ceding Easter, Septuagesima, Sexagesima, and Quin- quagesima. He said that the whole Christian philosophy was told in these three Sundays. On Septuagesima God made the world, and made it wellg this strikes a happy note. On Sexagesirna, man be- came independent and would not conform to God, this strikes a sad note. On Quinquagesima God sent for His prophets to reconvert, and failing them, His song this strikes a note of hope. The Provost continued that as a young man he had thought that with the coming of compulsory education, superstition and prejudices would vanish. The broaden- ing of science would give men power over all evil, the ad- vance of transportation would draw nations closer together, and there would be no war. Instead of that, in 1914 the lights went out , Liberty vanished. Oppression set in. The trouble was, man had forgotten the Bible, for- gotten God, and had found himself in a terrible situation from which he could not extricate himself. The Provost concluded by saying we should have to wake up to this, We should have to face evilg not self-con- iidently, but with God as an ally. We should have to fight it through God. Jesus Christ faced evil and con- quered it, He did not accept the world's standards, He de- fied them. In the same way, we, by defying evil, can share His conquests. On March 9th., Major the Reverend H. P. Charters preached. He took as his text St. Luke VII: 14. He told us that he had spoken to two types of boys who were interested in Canada. The Hrst, he said, were school- boys Who were interested in Canada, from a visitor's point 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD of view. The second were the men on active service over- seas. These were interested in Canada since it was their birthplace, and the place where a great many had homes, wives and children. These latter, however, were not very interested in religion, they thought it was for old folks who wanted to reach Heaven. He then explained how he had interested these men in religiong the way Christ had long ago inter- ested the young men who came to hear Him speak. He offered them the way of sacrifice, the way of adventure, the way of Witness, and the way of life. On Sunday, March 16th, the preacher in Chapel was the Rev. J. F. Davidson. He started his sermon by telling the story of a coun- try priest who often, in his sermons used the the words status quo. With free translation, the mess we're in. Anyone who wishes to revert to the status quo after the war, must be crazy, he said. Christians have always wanted authority to live by and live on. Before the Re- formation men lived by the Church, but when it became corrupt they fell back on the Bible. The Bible, though, has lost most of its authorityg we have come to question too much about it. During the pre- sent days we should live by the teachings of Jesus- through them we can save not only ourselves but the Whole world. He continued by saying that the trouble in the world today is that we have all been building walls about our national and individual possessions, we have forgotten our fellow men in our own selfishness. Mr. Davidson concluded by quoting from Mr. Roose- velt's speech of the night before: We must all sacrifice privilege to see this thing through, but we will not sacrifice the rights of man. ' TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 IN MEMORIAM L. H. BALDXVIN Q1862-19411 The School lost one of its most loyal and devoted Old Boys when Lawrence Heyden Baldwin died at Toronto on February 16th. Mr. Baldwin was a descendant of Robert Baldwin who lead the movement for responsible government in the early history of Upper Canada, and a son of William Augustus Baldwin. He used to say that his first employment dur- ing his early youth was when he was deputed to get up before the family every morning and stir the porridge over an open ire. He came to the School in 1872 and left in 1876. Con- ditions in those days were not so comfortable as they are to-day but they seemed to produce men of character and strong fibre. After leaving T.C.S. he studied law under Charles Moss, later Sir Charles, Chief Justice of Ontario, and he practised for many years in the firm of Baldwin and Morris. All his life Mr. Baldwin was a most faithful member of the Church of England, and for many years he had worshipped at St. Thomas' Church, Huron Street. He took an active and earnest interest in the affairs of the Diocese and gave liberally of his time to all matters con- nected With its Welfare. Mr. Baldwin saw clearly the vital need of religious training in our schools and worked unceasingly toward that endg he felt the clergy should make every effort to give regular instruction to the pupils in all the public and high schools, and he must have been encouraged to see the broader adoption of this belief in recent years. In 1912 he was elected a member of the Governing Body of the School and for twenty-seven years he hardly ever missed a meeting or failed to be at the School for any important function. On more than one occasion he 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD responded liberally when the School needed financial assist- ance, he always gave prizes on Speech Day, and his house, Mashquoteh , was continually open to T.C.S. people, boys, masters and Headmasters, who felt at once the warmth of his family's hospitality and the keen interestxshown in every detail of school life. In 1935 his first grandson came to the School and Mr. Baldwin watched him on the cricket field, in the Chapel, and at the Speech Day ceremonies with pride in his eyes. His four sons came to T.C.S., and altogether twenty-eight close relations of Mr. Baldwin's have attended the School. When he moved in 1893 to the Forest Hill district of Toronto, his home seemed to be far away in the country, but now it is surrounded by houses for miles in every direction. Mr. Baldwin initiated the movement to incor- porate the Village of Forest Hill and he succeeded in his efforts in 1923, becoming the first Reeve of the village, he maintained an unceasing interest in all the affairs of the village. Mr. Baldwin's death leaves a gap in the ranks of the grand old men of T.C.S. which can never be filledg the School will ever remember him as a good and faithful servant of its best interests over a long number of years. i.i .-.--1-.T- 4 .l TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 mfg Qcbool 5 'O M f Novus PM THE PAT STRATHY MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP This Scholarship is founded in memory of Sub-Lieut.

H. N. Taylor was called to Active Service during the half term break and left Port Hope, on March 2nd., to join the Air Force as Chaplain at the Rockcliffe Airport, Ottawa. The School is constantly conscious of the gap which he has left in our ranks but we want to give him our best wishes in his new work and to express the hope that he will be with us again before very long. Mr. Lawren Harris was also called to Active Service shortly before the half term break and we wish him the best of luck. He is now back at Borden after a mishap which put him into hospital for a short time. The Staff We take this opportunity to extend a most sincere welcome to Dr. J. E. A. Crake who has come to the School as a tutor in Latin and Greek. Dr. Crake is well acquaint- ed with the Little Big Four Schools, as he was a student at Upper Canada College and afterwards at Trinity College in the University of Toronto where he received his B.A. He went to Oxford in 1933 and graduated with his M.A. in 1935. He then received his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University and lectured at Dartmouth University until last June. We are very glad to welcome Mr. Cohu, our Music Master, back after an absence of over three weeks on account of illness. While Mr. Cohu was away Mr. Millson kindly relieved for him. The Rev. T. P. Crosthwait, M.A. C17-'20J now rector of St. Mark's kindly offered to take the Chapel services for us and to conduct the confirmation classes. It is a great pleasure to have him with us. The Rev. J.

An announcement, with our apologies, appeared in the last issue of the Record. The date still stands at Friday, April 25th. And it's still a case of rain or shine, do or die! Dr. 0rcha.rd's New Work The Rev. F. G. Orchard, Headmaster from 1913 until 1933, has accepted a living at Market Overton in Rutland, England, and plans to leave Belize, Honduras, early in April. We hope he will enjoy his new work and that he will often revisit his many friends in Canada. Tribute to the Hon. R. C. Matthews A well deserved tribute to the Hon. R. C. Matthews was the editorial in the Globe and Mail praising his public service as President of the Federation for Community Ser- vice, and President of the Humane Society, from which posts he has recently resigned. Mr. Matthews was, of course, the Minister of National Revenue in Mr. Bennett's last Cabinet. He is a member of the Governing Body of the School. . i. Exhibition of Art Mr. Lawren Harris very kindly arranged a most in- teresting exhibition of Canadian Art which was hanging in the Carnegie Room for a month at the beginning of term. One evening Mr. Harris discussed the paintings 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD with those interested and all the Art classes examined them. The artists represented were A. Y. Jackson, L. S. Harris, J. E. I-I. McDonald, T. McDonald, A. Lismer, C. Schaefer, C. Goldhammer, J. W. Beatty, C. F. Comfort, L. Harris, Jr., E. Aldwinckle, H. A. Mulligan, Sir Frederick Banting, G. Webber, G. Pepper, K. Daly, J. Casey, and L. Warriner. The Pancake Toss The annual School Pancake Toss was held on Shrove Tuesday, February 25th. A representative was chosen as usual from each form and from among the Prefects. The scramble for the largest piece was held in the Gymnasium. Morgan, representing III A, won the toss, having collected 18 ozs., Draper for VI B was second with 8 ozs. The following represented their various forms: Robertson VI A, Draper VI B, Kovacs V A, Austin V B, Nesbitt Re- move, Beament IV A, Butler IV B, Morgan IH A, Jackson III B, Greig II, Duncanson Prefects. Half-Holiday for Mrs. Ketchum On Thursday, March 13th, the School enjoyed a half- holiday in honour of Mrs. Ketchum's birthday on March 7th. As the snow conditions were exceptionally fine for this time of year, many boys took advantage of the holi- day and got in some worthwhile skiing. Motion Pictures Technicolor moving pictures of Canadafs northland were shown in the Hall by Mr. A. Staples on Friday even- ing, February 7th. The first reel, taken in the lovely country of Algonquin Park, showed deer, bears, porcupine and owls in their natural haunts. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11 The second iilm was entitled On the trail of the white tails . It portrayed a deer hunt in the autumn. The movies continued with winter sports in the Mus- koka district. The central theme was skiing, but it also showed shots of dog sledding, and turning loose jackrab- bits. These were for future winter hunting. To conclude the performance Mr. Staples put on a unique film, of a beaver at work repairing a broken darn. Finally there were some shots of the King and Queen's visit to Toronto, in the spring of 1939. To both Mr. Staples, and to the Hon. R. C. Matthews, who made this visit possible, we are extremely indebted for a very enjoyable evening. .i11. Talk by Flight Lieutenant Jobbin Flight Lieutenant Jobbin held the School breathless on the night of February 21st., by relating some of his adventures in England recently. Particularly interesting was his vivid conception of a bombing raid on London during the Blitz , He laughingly told us how brave he was considered for accepting a room in a hotel on the uppermost habitable floor, and how he nearly got killed by a bomb which landed nearby. He also described his dashing from door to door to avoid falling shrapnel when he was caught in a raid Without his tin helmet. Another feature of London of which he told us was the intensity of the darkness in a blackout, and the recklessness of Lon- don's cab-drivers. Another interesting thing that he told us was how an air force pilot spotted an unusual mustering of invasion barges in France, and how quickly action was taken. Thousands of dead German soldiers were washed up on the English coast for days afterward. He also mentioned his work, army co-operation, which consisted mainly of air photography. It was amusing the way he told us of his encounters with other British air- 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD craft when he was in his Lysander. The Germans were using Lysanders captured in France against England, so British ones had to have a password, which, in the air. was a flare of a specified colour. Royal Air Force fighter planes would swoop, and the poor Lysander pilot had to get a flare off or be shot down. The war in the air over Great Britain was pictured to us so vividly that we could almost hear bombs falling during the talk. We are very grateful to Flight Lieutenant Jobbin for giving us some of his time to tell us how splendidly the British are bearing up under the severe trials that beset them. He convinced us that there is great truth in the saying, There'l1 Always be an Eng- land . DEBATES On February 13th., the motion was: That in the opinion of this House, Canada should raise a conscript army of a million men immediately for service overseas. Cawley and Kerry led for the affirmative, Dalton and Draper for the negative. Cawley opened the debate, and there seemed to be great confusion on every side as to the exact wording of the motion. However this was settled and the debate proceeded along fairly normal lines. His argument was that Canada should raise a million men immediately as it was the most suitable place in the Empire. He said men from the American W.P.A. should be brought in to fill the positions vacated by the Canadians. Dalton then spoke for the negative, and pointed out that Canada was the arsenal of Great Britain and could be much more valuable to the latter by keeping her supplied with the implements of war. He said also that if Prime Minister King were to allow conscription he would be going directly against his pledge. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 Kerry's argument for the affirmative was that Canada should raise an army immediately for the purpose of at- tacking Germany in the big thrust that is bound to come in the next year. Draper said that in the last war Britain had come out on top by staying on the defensive, and he also said that Mr. Churchill told us that England had enough men. He went on to say that it was not in the best interests of the country to put men off relief into the responsible ofiices that would be left after conscription had come in. He closed by quoting Prime Minister Churchill, Give us the tools and we will finish the job. The motion was defeated 47-21. On Tuesday, February 18th, the motion was That in the opinion of this house, railways are of greater value to Canada than highways. The principal speakers for the aflirmative were Lewin and Hume. Lewin stressed the importance of railways in the present war and how the railway companies em- ployed a large number of Canadian men. Hume, the second speaker for the affirmative, stated the part rail- ways had played in the development of Canada. The principal speakers for the negative were Strong and Brown. Strong pointed out the advantages of trans- portation by trucks and added that the highways encour- aged the American tourist trade. Brown, the second speaker for the negative, pointed out the loss that the rail- ways had sustained during 1940. The debate was then opened to the house. Culver, Huycke, Hope, Clarke, Hull, Thompson, Dalton and Hare i. spoke from the floor. A vote was then taken and the motion was defeated 33 to 24. 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD On the evening of February 25th, the motion was that Great Britain should immediately violate the neutrality of Eire . LeMesurier was the opening speaker for the Govern- ment and in his speech he pointed out what a great menace unprotected Eire was to England. He pointed out that the Germans, with their parachute invaders, could easily land in the comparatively uninhabited centre of the coun- try and thereby disrupt any attempts at defence from further swarms of air-borne troops. Lambert, the second speaker for the government, reminded us of the Shannon power scheme which brought many Germans into the coun- try, Germans who have stayed there and who have necessi- tated the use of the German tongue in certain Dublin stores. Spence was the leading speaker for the opposition. He argued that air-borne invaders would, in most cases, have to cross England, which would limit their chances of reach- ing their destination. Warburton, who spoke second for the opposition, said that a British invasion would lead to worse relations with Eire and would cause the British a lot of trouble, possibly with the U.S.A. Speaking for the opposition, from the floor, Svenning- son pointed out that the British would be accused of Ger- man methods if they violated Eire's neutrality. Duncan- son, supporting the government, pointed out the value of Eire's naval bases to help combat sea warfare, and German attacks on convoys. Other speakers from the floor were Lewin, Hare i., and Draper who supported the govern- ment, Moysey and Culver supported the opposition. The motion was upheld by a vote of 40 to 35. On Tuesday, March 4th, the motion was That in the opinion of this house the St. Lawrence Waterway and Power scheme should be immediately developed. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 Tracy opened the discussion by stating that the urgent need of both the U.S. and Canada for more electric power, because of a shortage of coal, is enough to warrant the development of this scheme. Hart spoke in opposition to the motion by bringing up the fact that Ontario needs no more power, it has reserves along the Ottawa River, and that the necessity for constant dredging of the St. Lawrence, along with the fact that this waterway would have to be closed to shipping during the winter, the upkeep would present a problem. Smith continued for the aflirmative, mentioning the cost of re-loading cargoes into various-sized ships for the different parts of the voyage to the sea from the great lakes, and the resultant prosperity of the lake ports. This prosperity would offset the cost. Fleming backed the negative by saying that the money was needed to win the War. Liners would not find it worth the time lost to go all the way inland. Macintosh, Lewin and Greer spoke for the affirmative, while Warner, Searle, Hare i. and Sims rose in opposition to the motion, which was defeated by a majority of 46 to 20. . The motion: That England, the British Dominions and the United States should at once found a federal union was debated on March 11th. Olds opened the speeches by saying that such a union would help Britain win the war. The same currency would be used throughout the federation, and there would be no exchange difficulties. Culver, the opening speaker for the negative, pointed out that if the United States joined the union, she would immediately be at war with Germany. He continued by saying that this union would not be in the best interests of Canada financially. Such a union of power would, he said, immediately transform Europe into an armed camp of opposition. 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Moysey, speaking for the government showed the advantages of such a union in peace time, and how it would make a better and safer world. It was pointed out by Scott that if representation in this federation went on a basis of population, Canada would not join because she would not have enough members. If there were the same number of members from each country, England and the U.S.A. would not join because they would not have enough say in the government. The Headmaster spoke from the floor, being followed by the Speaker, Mr. Morse. Mackinnon also spoke from the floor. The motion was defeated by a vote of 38-17. j'? IW I C 2 yl,l k l.

Dido looked very sleek and terrible as she swept through the murky waters headed towards an unknown destination. Her captain had taken the Dido into port the previous week and had her refuelled for a long voyage. ' For the past three months a German commerce raider had been terrorizing the North Atlantic. This vessel was the 10,000-ton Bismarck, whose captain seemed to have an uncanny knowledge of where the convoys could be found. Ten ships had fallen prey to her 5.25 inch secondary arma- ment. Three armed merchantmen had been blown out of the water by her six 11-inch guns. H.M.S. Dido had cruised around uneventfully for a few days, when on the morning of the fourth day, smoke was sighted off the port bow. Full speed was called for immediately, and under forced draught the cruiser raced towards the smoke. When she arrived at the scene it was found to be a Norwegian oil tanker, ablaze from stem to stern. On the aft deck they found a man, more dead than alive, who told them that they had been attacked by the Bismarck and set on fire only six hours ago. When I last saw her , he said, she was steering NW by N. The captain rang for more steam, and in three minutes they were churning away in the wake of the Bismarck. By six o'clock smoke was sighted, and by sunrise, the Bis- marck was discovered coming up fast on the starboard beam. The duty of the Dido was primarily to protect, to the best of her ability, the sea lanes. But now, she found herself face to face with a much superior opponent, an opponent whose 11-inch guns could, and would, blast her out of the water. She radioed the North Atlantic Squadron for assistance. A muffled roar was heard, and a minute later a boiler was reported burst. The ship would have to proceed at half speed until the boiler could be repaired. There was no escape. The Dido would have to fight. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 Captain Desmond looked towards the Bismarck and could see her 11-inch guns swing around, rest for a minute, and then with a hungry roar, hurl five tons of destruction at the crippled cruiser. Fire when in range , shouted the Captain as the Bis- marck's shells started falling all around them. A few seconds later, the ten 5.25 inch guns of the Dido spoke, and the ship staggered under the recoil. Captain Desmond and his lieutenant waited anxiously for the shells to fall, and grinned with pleasure when they saw two flashes of flame leap from abaft the Bismarck's funnel. Lieutenant Cummings had just Gnished saying, First blood for us, when there was a blinding flash and a roar, and the ship gave a lurch which threw him off his feet. When he got to his feet the lieutenant said, Number one turret out of action, sir . The Dido's remaining guns valiantly answered the Bis- marck's destructive fire. Two minutes later the raider's guns again hit, this time tearing a seven foot hole in the cruiser's bow. Holes appeared as if by magic in the Dido's superstructure, and a large 11-inch shell completely obliterated the airplane hangar. Still the British cruiser fought on, as shell after shell crashed down on the Dido's deck. Ripping and tearing, the small shells of the light cruiser crashed through the bridge, control tower and hull of the Bismarck. The Dido's deck and bridge were a shambles, one of her rear turrets had been wiped off the deck as if torn out by the roots. Sparks appeared on the bridge and handed Captain Desmond a piece of paper on which was written the message : Renown and cruisers on the way. -Admiral Cunningham. Captain Desmond grabbed his telescope and peered 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD intently towards the south. Sure enough, there to the south were the Renown and two cruisers. As he watched, he saw a puff of smoke burst from the Renown and a second later three more puffs belched from her turrets in quick succession. He turned his glass towards the raider and watched the shells fall. Two went over the Bis- marck and two fell short. A straddle at 16,000 yards , thought the captain, the next salvo ought to finish her . The Bismarck had had enough and was running to the north, but fate was against her. The second Salvo from the Renown caught the fleeing raider amidships. The whole superstructure of the raider seemed suddenly to be enveloped in a sheet of flame and smoke. When the smoke cleared, there was the Bismarck with her aft gun turrets a pile of twisted junk, her bridge a mass of torn metal. Two more salvos followed in quick succession, and then the firing ceased. But that had been enough, for the raider was listing heavily to port with steam pouring out of her boiler room. This was the finish, her back broken and guns gone, the Bismarck was swiftly settling. Men could be seen jumping overboard from the stricken vessel and swimming desperately towards floating bits of wreckage. As the Renown swept majestically by she dipped her colours to the gallant little cruiser which had, for so long, battled a superior enemy, and in the end, had been direct- ly responsible for the destruction of the pride of the Ger- man Navy. -D.F.F.

His exuberance at the news of the Armistice had overflowed the bounds of school discipline. He was found in his Trent House room in a dubious conditiong consequently he did not return to Tenlington Collegiate School. if fl it if i Benny the Hawk stiffened apprehensively. He shrank back into the shadow of a friendly pillar as a pinpoint of light approached. The sanctuary of a pair of folding doors gleamed invitingly in the wane moonlight. Benny crept over and softly turned the metal door-knob. The door did not openg he twisted the handle with feverish silence: his frenzied efforts were rewarded and he found himself gazing into pitch darkness. Regaining his con- fidence he pulled the door to silently and switched on the pencil flashlight which he carried. Ahead of him he saw a table. He looked around: more tables: he must be in the dining hall. He had stumbled into the room. Stopping to listen he heard youthful footsteps sound- ing outside and then dying away in the blackness of the night, illuminated only by the flashlight of a boy return- ing from late lights. Benny breathed freely and prepared to make a closer inspection of the vast hall. His ,pal, No. 6854371, had once paged this very room and he had given Benny the layout , By this time he had wandered over to one side of the hall to inspect two suspicious looking swing doors. Having satisfied himself that they were locked and that he was comparatively safe from interruption, he wandered over to the other side of the hall where his eyes fell on three tightly packed shelves of gleaming silver cups and trophies. Joyous relief welled up within his heart and he liter- lly shovelled as many of them as was possible into a sack 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD which he was carrying. Hardly pausing to reconnoitre further he made for the doors and soon was drinking the cool night air in grateful gulps. SF if HF if if When Benny the Hawk returned home he emptied his sack upon the kitchen floor and proceeded to examine his ill-gotten gains.

Ever since the crack Nazi forces swept over Holland in the spring of 1940, the people of Rotterdam had been subjected to the worst hardships. The Germans had treated them like animals. It was June, 1942, now. Hendrik was no longer de- pressed with the death of some friend. He was no longer in constant terror of Gestapo. He now had a proud feel- ing, a feeling of knowing that he was doing some good. For every night on which the weather was clear, he would assist in guiding R.A.F. bombers to their objectives. With some other boys, he would go into the countryside within a mile of the oil storage tanks, and there would light flares to give the bombers their direction. Several times, they had not dispersed quickly enough, and already five of his comrades had failed to return from their nightly errands. One day, Wilhelm was approached by his father's friend, Herr Van Loom. Van Loom had been a Nazi agent for the past year, but Hendrik often wondered to which country he was most loyal. He was to find out, for the German agent took him aside and said quietly. My boy, I know what you are doing for your comi- try. But I want you to do a more dangerous task. Forty thousand troops will be in Rotterdam in four days as they are preparing for an attempted English landing. Some- how, you must tell the R.A.F. this fact. They will all be assembling within a half-mile radius of the town square, and will be easy victims for a strong bombing force. Do yoiu' best. After Van Loom left, Hendrik returned home to con- sider the matter. That night, he went to the house of one of his accomplices to whom he told his story. His friend smiled, walked over to his cupboard and produced a small two-way radio transmitter. You may use this to send your message , he said. It is very powerful. I stole it from a German field station . 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Returning home, Wilhelm took the transmitter up to his attic, where he set it up. He then tuned in on an English frequency to listen to a broadcast, with his small knowledge of English. Later that night, the bombers came over on their usual errand. Waiting until the height of the raid when most Germans would be far from radio receiving sets, Hendrik hastily tried to contact an English station. He was suc- cessful, and in a minute he had divulged the information regarding the Nazi troop movement. On the eve of the chosen day, thousands of German soldiers were already in Rotterdam. Most of the citizens were at home as was the Wilhelm family. Suddenly the door was thrown open and in walked four storm-troopers. With a curt Heil Hitler , the commanding officer ordered his men to search the house, explaining that he had in- structions to search every dwelling in the neighbourhood. The radio was soon found, and a scene followed in which the officer arrested Herr Wilhelm. But rather than see his father take the punishment for his deed, Hendrik stepped forward and surrendered. He was taken away under guard, much to the consternation of his parents. At twelve o'clock the next day, Rotterdam swarmed with crack units of the German army, forming up and marching through the streets. Suddenly, the ominous wail of the air-raid siren started. Hurried orders were given for the troops to scatter. But most of them were still in the open four minutes later when the British and American bombers arrived. They came over like dark clouds under a strong fighter escort. Almost eight hundred planes released their bomb loads and turned for home. Two hours later, when the last attacking plane had left, the town square was a scene of devastation. Thousands of dead soldiers and civilians were sprawled on the pavement. The civilians had died for a worthy cause. That night, following in the wake of more air-raids, a large force of Allied troops made a landing on Dutch soil. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 In two days, they drove the Nazis from the Netherlands coast. The invasion of Germany was about to begin. British troops were being hailed in Belgian and Dutch cities. From behind the barbed wire of his prison camp, Hendrik saw the last of the German army. He Watched the victorious American and Canadian forces enter Rotter- dam. He was jubilant as he ran through the streets, free once more, towards his home. But his home was no longer there. Instead was a pile of debris in which he found the dead bodies of his father and mother. As he slowly retraced his steps to the centre of the town, through the milling throng of celebraters, his sorrow was partly forgotten at the sight of all his fellow-countrymen liber- ated from the horrors of two years of Nazi occupation, and he thought of how, in future years, he might tell his chil- dren of the part that he played in the overthrow of the Third Reich. -P.G.D.A.

She might take it the wrong way, or do I mean the right way? Oh, I don't know . . . I feel wretched! But I must ask. It means everything. Why does she frighten me so? I read over that book three times, and I still feel weak at the knees. How to Improve Your Mind and Overcome an Inferiority Complex in Twelve Easy Lessons , bah! By Professor Swivelstein! huh! What he needs to write a book on is salesmanship to suckers. If I don't ask her soon, it will be too late. I've already put it off for two days, and I have to go out of town tomorrow. If I haven't her answer before then, it's hopeless. The book says in the first lesson always to remember that this is a free country, and that you are as good as anybody else. Then it goes on to say never cringe or shuffle before a person, but stand up, square your should- ers, and eye him, or her, unflinchinglyf' I tried that last week, but, oh! she gave me that look of hers. That same look, a fishy look, that you see in the eyes of a waiter in a restaurant, when you have finished your meal, and sudden- ly remember you left your money in your other pants. And when she gives me a look like that, I can't help dissolving. The book doesn't say anything about looks. I guess the author had never met Bridget. She has the kind of eye from which a raging lioness defending its young would shrink . . . and with its tail between its legs at that. When that glance strikes me, I really wish I had a tail to put be- tween my legs. I think it would make me feel better. The trouble is, I never know what sort of mood she'l1 be in next. It would be gruesome if she were in one of her physical culture passions. Ugh! That suggestive way she has of flexing her right arm, and starting to talk of her latest programme of development. I know she'd like it if I went in for that stuff, but the very thought of it makes my poor stomach turn flips. Besides, if she's in one of those moods, she'l1 get mad if I try to change the subject. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 And then again, she might be in one of her intellectual fits. That would be even worse, if possible, because then if I talk of anything less than Shakespeare, she will think I'm being fiippant. Oh, I'm so unhappy. I wish I felt a little better to- day, then I'd be more up to asking her. I really should have known better than to eat those pancakes she gave me last night. Oh, but I must see her this afternoon. I wish I didn't have to. if S if Il i The little man was still nervous and frightened. He walked irresolutely towards the living room, where he knew her to be at the moment. He paused, then, sum- moning all available courage, he timidly opened the door and peeped in. What he saw shocked him to the depths of his skittish, little soul. A strange-looking man was standing by Bridget, facing away from him. He was point- ing something indiscernible at her. She was obviously frightened. Good Heaven, this is terrible! That man must be a burglar. What can I do. That's a gun he has. If he sees me he might shoot me. Oh, I feel ill, my indigestion's getting worse. I'll telephone the police. No. that's no good. He'd be gone by the time they got here. I might be able to hit him .... but how? or with what? Hah! There's that big China vase that Bridget bought the other day. Shhhh .... I mustn't let him hear me. Now! All thoughts of his inferiority complex now scattered, the little man, no longer timid, advanced furtively on the blustering burglar. He raised the heavy vase with diflii- culty, and stopping, brought it down with a resounding crash on the man's head. The burglar sighed heavily, and flopped wearily onto the floor. The vase was shattered, and the little man stood still, dazed by his own unexpect- ed heroism. Within a short while of being phoned, the police arrived, and the burglar, still unconscious, was removed. Bridget was lavish in her praise. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Oh! she cooed, I never realized I had married such a brave husband. By the way he said in reply, there's a question I've been wanting to ask you for several days. I'm going on an important business trip tomorrow, and I should like to make a good impression. Do you think you could lend me S25 to buy a new suit? - Oscar SNOW Surely I shall never know A thing as white as driven snow. Snow that comes at dead of night Covering all in garb of white. Snow that into ice does freeze, Which brings us quickly to our knees. Snow that comes for half a year, Bringing with it lots of cheer.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 CON SCIEN TIOUS OBJ ECTOR The praise of John Archer, V.C., is on the lips of all. There is also a touch of sorrow, a glory that shines upon our tears. His heroic actions during the British invasion of German France have thrilled the masses, just as the sacrifice of his life in the execution of his duty has made them proudly melancholy. Hollywood might phrase the situation, Public Hero Number One lin a tragedylf' Last night I went to pay my respects to his parents, who were very proud of him, as people are proud of dead heroes. Naturally, the conversation was entirely devoted to John. After I had been given a full account of the events leading up to his death, we began to discuss and recall the various parts of my friend's life. We had arrived at the point just prior to John's enlistment, which took place about fourteen months after Declaration, and John's father fa '14-'18 veteran himself, with quite an impressive array of medalsl said that John's decision to enlist was rather a surprise, as at the beginning of the war he had shown tendencies bordering on pacifism. Just before John decided to enlist, I replied, we two had a talk. John was very violently opposed to war. He believed that going to war was disobeying the Com- mandments, Thou shalt not kill, and Love thy neigh- bour as thyself. He felt that the solution to the world's problems lay in universal disarmament. His ideas were perfectly logical and reasonable--for peacetime. I then explained that he failed to realize that pacifism and arbi- tration had not succeeded, and that more drastic methods were being employed. He did not realize that his country Was at war with an utterly ruthless enemy savagely deter- mined to destroy his freedom, his religion, his rights, his very existence. He did not see that Democracy was at stake, and that Christianity, the religion of freedom, was in grave danger. He still thought as a man living in a world of peace, with war merely the distant rumblings of a gathering storm. The tempest had broken on him, but 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD he did not see the need of protecting himself and his pos- sessions from it. I remember saying to him, There are two Command- ments, but you must remember that they follow several others, which might be summed up in the words, 'Love God above all'. Perhaps it will not be illogical to presume that these first Commandments are much stronger and more important than the ones that you believe in. Thus if it came to a showdown, as it has, and you had to break one Commandment in order to keep another, you would surely by all means keep the stronger and break the weaker. Therefore, as we are fighting to preserve our faith in God, and to make the world a safer place to show our faith, I think that we are quite justified in going to war. I did not have to convince him of the gravity of the threat against our safe, comfortable, free life, but never- theless I stressed the fact that we must all pitch in and give all that we can in order to win. He thanked me, and enlisted a week later. I'm sorry, in a way, that I had such a part, though indirect, in his death. We're glad and proud to have had such a fine fellow for a son , said his father with glistening eyes. -Anon .l.1 li V TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD WHAT TIME D0 WE GET OUT? 'ro Flight-Lieut. Dal Russel, n.F.c. A while ago I wrote some rhymes, Admiring your colossal nerve. Fifteen, you looked for hectic times With verve. For studies you had no great yen, To your impetuous, youthful soul Good conduct prizes were not then A goal. One day, impatient at the thought Of hours on one absurd exam, Two minutes from the start you sought To scram. Bored by invigilation, not For me to clear your eye of mote! Knowing just why you felt so hot, I wrote: We're only just beginning And this paper's pretty long, The preacher said last Sunday That the race is to the strong, But already I feel weary And the only vital query Is 'What time can we get out?' I went and filled my pen up And of paper took a wad. No use! The answers needed Can be only known to God! And the weather feels like thunder, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD While I just sit here and wonder 'What time do we get out?' When masters set these papers I've no doubt that they mean wellg But so do Satan's firemen, Stoking up forced draught in hell.

It's throbbing so that I can scarcely think, I must think though, if I want to stay sane for the next three hours! If I lean my head against this cold iron bar here, itmight ease the pain a little. There, that feels better! It really seems incredible that I'm finally through, that at last I don't have to conceal my real thoughts, although to speak them will not do me any good! My head is throbbing less now, it just seems to be one long continuous ache. The pain is good, though, because it makes me re- member so clearly that day, scarcely two years ago, when I decided to do this. The final objective seemed so far away then, and so hard to attain, but everything is over now. I remember how often I had thought myself impotent at sixteen to do anything to help terminate this horrible warg I was too young to fight. With startling sudden- ness, one cold January afternoon, I realized one way, a hard one no doubt, by which I could help. The thought hammered at my brain for hours, and I made up my mind that I was going to do it. My scheme had about one in a hundred chances of succeeding, but nevertheless, for some rash reason I vowed to join the Nazis and try to get into the inner Nazi circles, if I could do that, I knew I could in time do some kind of irreparable damage. The most logical method of starting seemed to be to read up about the Nazi ideals and methods, and then to start talking about them as if I believed in them. Accord- ingly, I went to the school library, and rummaging around, I found all sorts of books and pamphlets that suited my purpose admirably. One of the first was Mein Kampf , which I studied as though my life depended upon it. Stuffing my mind full of arguments for Nazism and Hitler, I began to start arguments with some of the boys, natur- ally the word got around that I believed in Nazism more than I should, and I did not refute it. Gradually the argu- 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ments became hot-spoken Hghts, and before it seemed possible, I was the object of hateful remarks and discus- sions. I remember how it pleased me to think that my first crude methods were working, and, at the same time, how it hurt me to find all my friends turning against me. My head is throbbing so again that I can scarcely bring to my mind that final day when the storm of hate iinally broke around me. Oh yes, I can see it all now! It was the night of the debate about America joining the Allies. How it shocked the school when I got up from the floor and gave the boys a long harangue about the useless- ness of attempting to fight Nazi Germany. In a series of fiery sentences I expounded the important theories and be- liefs of National Socialist Germany. I was surprised at my own windy eloquence, but it didn't last long. For a short While the school had listened dumbfounded, and then in wild anger one of the Seniors grabbed me, and started a general scuffleg I was dragged out of the Hall still yelling, and I was given the beating of my life. The Headmaster soon heard about it, and I shortly found myself standing sulkily at attention before him in his small study. He told me that such a thing had never occurred at the school be- fore, and that unless I changed my whole outlook on life immediately, he would be obliged to expel me. His ultima- tum was somewhat of a shock to me. True, I had ex- pected it, but I hated to think how my parents would feel about the whole affair. They had great faith in me, but it had to be shattered if I wanted to succeed. Sulkily and defiantly I gave him my answer. He rose up in his swivel- chair shaking with anger, and, in a dreadfully calm voice, told me to pack up my things. The trip home to Mexico by bus still seems blurred to me. Spring had already set in. but it made no impres- sion on my tormented brain. With growing horror I realized what a wild mess I was in. I realized that I could not go through with the crazy scheme, that my chances of succeeding were so few, and that I could not stand the TRINITY COLLEGES SCHOOL RECORD 35 strain of eternally pretending I believed passionately in something I hated from the bottom of my soul. I resolved to give up the whole idea, to tell my parents freely the reasons beneath my being expelled, to free my anguished mind from the terrible weight I had imposed upon it. By this time I was in Mexico, and I settled down in my seat, with that inward happiness that comes from do- ing what is right. At Monterrey I decided to go to a lunchroom, for I had not eaten a thing for three days. I walked into a small, dirty restaurant about two blocks away from the dilapitated bus terminal. The sordid appear- ance of the place disgusted me, and I was just turning aroimd to leave when a small, sly looking man touched my armg with a barely perceptible twitch of his wrinkled head he signalled me to follow him. At iirst I was inclined to ignore him, but my sense of curiosity, roused by my re- cent experiences, prompted me to follow. He led me to a dingy back room, and there he gave me one of the biggest shocks of my life. In a rapid monotonous tone he pro- ceeded to tell me all about my unpleasant experiences at school, leading up to, and including my expulsion. His sharp eyes glared at me intensely the whole while. I could not face them, for I had acquired the thief's habit of dropping my eyes. I stood there, trying to calm my beat- ing heart. He finished as abruptly as he had begun, and stared at me, with even greater intensity, as if waiting for an answer. I sized him up in a minute. He was evidently a Nazi fifth-columnist, who, in some underhand way, had found out about my recent actions, and consider- ed me ripe material for his Party. In a flash all my thoughts of giving up my plan were wiped out. Here was an un- hoped for chance of getting among the fifth-columnists. It was too good a chance to throw away, so I played my part accordingly. I remember telling him that I didn't know what he was talking about, and then I remember, too, his short sarcastic laugh, and the long plans he drew out for me to follow. 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD After that, everything revolves in my mind like one long continuous night-mare. It hurts my head to re- member how unbelievably well my plan worked out, but also how horribly unhappy I was at home. I kept up the pretence even with my parents, because I knew that if I let anyone know what I was attempting to do, the whole scheme might be wrecked. For a while my parents would not, and could not be- lieve that I had changed so terribly in less than a year, but I kept up my deception so persistently that they learned to hate me. It hurt them terribly, and I was often tempted to give up the whole crazy idea when I saw my mother aging rapidly. All her zest for life seemed goneg she seemed to be conscious of it only when she was defy- ing what she took to be my beliefs. My father, too, changed before my eyes, but he did not become oldg rather, he be- came bitter. He fought my every move with tooth and nailg my brother did the same. I could not bear to re- main among them any longer, and in desperation, I went to the little man who had, in a sense, discovered me. He gave me a place to stay in one of the questionable parts of the city, where I could work freely for the Party. To test me, they made me do all sorts of small sabotage jobs. Even before I was allowed to meet the party leader of the city where I lived, I had to do all sorts of nasty things to prove by belief in the Party. One little incident stands clear in my mind yet. I had to walk into a printer's office, where British propa- ganda pamphlets were being printed, and smash some of the machinery. Even when I was inside the place, I had no idea how I was going to accomplish the destruction, but I finally managed to lock myself alone into the print- ing room, and, with an iron bar that I discovered lying be- side a letter-bench, I smashed everything possible for some three minutes, and then escaped into the crowded street through a small courtyard window. TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD 37 Apparently my escapades were considered quite suc- cessful, because the Leader took it upon himself to im- prove my small knowledge of German, until he considered that I no longer spoke it or wrote it with foreign manner- isms. From then on I climbed steadily upward in his favour by continuousenthusiastic work, until I became his private secretary, handling all sorts of propaganda pamph- lets. Only once in all this time did I meet my parents. It makes me shiver to think of it. They were walking down one of the main streets in the early evening, and I bumped into them coming out of a store. They looked at me intently, then pushed by me disdainfully without a word. I remember standing there in the street looking despairingly after them until they had disappeared in the evening crowds. I remember again despairing of ever getting any nearer my goal. I thought the Leader was keeping me for his own use indefinitely, but I was wrong. One day I was sure that I had succeeded. The Leader called me to his office and started telling me about the glories of the Fatherland. I listened to him half-heartedly at first, inwardly hating him for all his cheap words, but as I listened, I realized that he was leading up to something important. He could not use me as a spy in Mexico, be- cause everyone knew all about me, so he had secured a place for me on a Spain-bound cargo boat. He thought I would be of more use in Germany. Later I found out why. The trip across the ocean seems now like one big blur, dominated by the thought that my parents did not even know where I was, and that I had not managed to say good-bye to them. I still could not bring myself to believe that they did not care what became of me. I crossed on the Marchita , and landed at Cadiz after a two-week trip. There, I was met by a Nazi oflicial, who drove me right across Spain and France in his private car. The Leader had supplied me with a Spanish passport that 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD let me across all borders with ease. The trip across France and Spain was very uneventful, but I was struck by the terrible damage done to the cities, and by the dreadful blackouts. At nights all that part of Europe seemed dead, except for the occasional drone of airplanes over- head. I didn't experience a bombing until we arrived at Berling I was talking to a military ofiicial at the Landen Hotel, and we had to sit cramped in its stuffy bomb-shelter for over five hours. My experiences in Berlin are still fresh in my mind. The pain has left my head now, where they kicked me, and I can think of things much easier. Only an infernal humming in my ears reminds me of last night. I have learnt to hate Berlin passionately. I hate it because it has been so dreadfully cruel to me. When I first arrived there I was full of hope. The new surround- ings made me live with increased vigour and eagerness, and at times I even knew some happiness when I realized that I had gone this far with such relative easeg I even imagined for a while that I was nearing my goal. After the first few weeks, however, I was doomed to disappoint- me-nt. I found out, through listening to idle gossip in the officer's quarters, the reason I had been sent to Germany. I learnt that I had been sent here as an example to other ambitious young foreigners who had become imbibed with the Nazi propaganda. I was simply a dupe. It made me bitter to think that, although my efforts had had some- thing to do with it, I had arrived at my present position through sheer intrigue. The thought made me pass the next few weeks in a daze of anger. The strenuous drill imposed on me at the barracks where I was staying be- came the most horrid of useless efforts. Everything anger- ed me. and other officers must have noticed it: however, after a few weeks of intensive military training I was given my first job. ' That was yesterday. Yesterday everything seems to have come to a head like a huge nasty boil does just be- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD QQ fore it bursts. Early in the morning, about live o'clock, I was awakened by the young Polish orderly. Still half asleep, I hurried to report to my senior oflicer in my tight new uniform. As I was about to knock on his door, he came out, and for a moment I stood before him with my fist upraised before his pasty face. How I wish I had hit him then, and saved myself the imbroglio that was to follow. He never said a word, but as I came smartly to attention, he signalled me to follow him. We went out into the cold, deserted street, and looking up at the dirty grey sky, just showing the first signs of dawn, I had a pre- sentiment that something terrible was to follow. I climb- ed into his small Fiat after him, and for some twenty minutes We drove on through the deserted streets to the outskirts of the city. We came to an old willow forestg a light fog was hang- ing from the drooping branches, and as we got out of the car I noticed an old church, surrounded by a high stone wall, half hidden among the trees. As we walked towards the old building, I became conscious of a small knot of men grouped under the nearest of the outer walls. My heart began to beat violently as we approached them, and a shiver of dread and horror went down the length of my back when I saw that two of them had their hands tied tightly behind their backs. By this time we were right up to them, and I noticed that the two with their hands tied were clad in mud-spattered peasant clothes, their faces were taut and haggard, but they held their heads proudly. Undoubtedly this was an execution I had been brought to! Surely I wasn't going to be a member of the firing-squad! I can still feel the horror that spread through my mind when one of the guards handed me a Luger. I was ordered to stand at fifteen paces from the wall, and the two doomed peasants were placed side by side beneath it. My loyalty to the Party was being test- ed in a vile way that only the Nazis could think of. With vicious precision I raised the heavy revolver to the level of 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the first man's unbandaged eyes. A violent shivering came over me, and I knew then that I could never do it. Instant- ly I realized that all my work had come tumbling down about me. My raised arm fell listlessly to my side, and my head must have fallen in despair, because I remember my hair flapping down onto my forehead. What followed after that is again dim. I I was con- scious of being roughly led away into the old church, and then an iron-knuckled fist bashed against my hot face. After that have followed such hours of vileness and horror, that I can recall nothing but the sharp pains that spread through my whole body as I was kicked and beaten. Gradually the pain became long and continuous, but I was conscious enough to hear two shots that seemed to come from far away. My two peasants were dead! Then a numb stupor spread over me, and I was mercifully un- conscious until a few hours ago when a gentle hand on my fore-head woke me up. They had the decency to send me a priest. He told me that I had three hours left. I shall leave this manuscript in his hands. if Il O O O My time must be up now, because I hear the sharp heels of the guards tapping louder down the corridor.

University of Toronto Schools were responsible for the School's second defeat of the year in a close, hard-fought match. The iirst period was very fast and was only a few minutes old when Ball scored for U.T.S. The School came back strongly and were rewarded when Somerville scored to tie the game up. Just before the end of the period Ball put the visitors in the lead again when he scored on a pretty effort. In the second period both teams scored a goal apiece. Somerville counted first for the School and Ball for U.T.S. The School went wild with joy when Fish Caldwell tied the score at 3-3. But their elation was short-lived, for Ball scored his third goal for U.T.S. and a few minutes later Brown scored for U.T.S. again to conclude the scor- ing. Ball and Faulkner starred for the visitorsg Somerville was most effective for the School. Final score: U.T.S. 53 T.C.S. 3.

In the first period Somerville for the School was the only marksman. ' In the second stanza, however, the School scored six goals. Duggan ma. accounted for three, While McLean, Somerville and Cawley made up the quota. Goodall and Caldwell both earned two assists. In the third period Lakeiield came to life and, had it not been for the fine work of Duggan max., who, incident- ally obtained a well-earned shut-out, they most certainly Would have scored. As it was, Somerville, playing a re- markable game, scored three times for the School. Urquhart was the most effective for the visitors while Somerville and the Duggan brothers deserve special men- tion for their part in the School Victory. Final score: T.C.S. 10, Grove 0.

The game opened with a goal for Trinity by McLean after twenty seconds of play. Ashbury tied the score a minute later when their Captain, MacGowan, capitalized on a pass from Burrows. The ice was soft and rough, mak- ing puck-handling very diflicult, but throughout the first period the School had the advantage, keeping most of the play inside the visitors' blue-line. T.C.S. again took the lead when Capt. Wal Duggan scored at the twelve- minute mark. 50 TRINITY coLLr-:GE SCHOOL RECORD In the second period Ashbury took the initiative and were rewarded when MacGowan and Burrows tallied to give Ashbury the lead. In the third period Caldwell scored for the School on a solo breakaway to tie the score and later on Duggan ma. scored in a similar manner.

Half a minute later Robert- son netted the puck. In the second period Somerville scored the only goal, on a pass from Jones max. S.A.C. pressed hard but fail- ed to get by Duggan max. in the School nets. In the final period Somerville scored his third goal of the game. Again the Saints put on a power play, result- ing in a goal by Hueston. The excellent work of Duggan max. in goal and of Somerville offensively, was largely responsible for the maroon and black victory. MacMillan and Hueston were the stalwarts of the home team.

In their annual encounter with Pickering College the School downed the boys from Newmarket by the score of 7-2. The scoring was free in the 'first and second period but lagged somewhat in the final stanza. Williamson opened the scoring for Pickering after three minutes of play. A bare two minutes later, how- ever, two School goals within forty-two seconds of each other gave T.C.S. the lead. The marksmen were Caldwell and Goodall, with Somerville and Duggan ma. respectively earning assists. McLean and Fleming concluded the School scoring in the irst period. After two minutes of play in the second period Dug- gan ma. scored unassisted for the School and scarcely a minute later Perkin took a pass from Williamson to score Pickering's second and final goal. McLean combined with Duggan ma. at the half-way mark to boost the Schoo1's lead to 6-2. In the third period Caldwell, assisted by Somerville, was the only scorer.

At Montreall, February 27th. With high hopes the School journeyed to Montreal. These hopes, however, were rudely dashed to the ground when Lower Canada College won by the close score of 3-2. Only two periods were played, each of twenty-five minutes, as the ice was only available for one hour in all. The first period play was carried throughout by the School. They, however, were unable to score. L.C.C. made the best of their few coimter-rushes in the period to open the scoring after four minutes of play, when Wil- son banged in a bounding puck which had hopped over the sticks of two School players. Lewis earned an assist on the play. Shortly before the period ended Richard- son scored for L.C.C. on Miles' rebound. Penalties were costly to the School in this period, both goals being scored while the School was short- handed. In the second period things looked brighter for Trin- ity when, after two minutes of play, Goodall tallied, with Duggan ma. and McLean assisting. At the four minute mark the School tied the game up at 2-all, when McLean scored on passes from Duggan ma. and Goodall. T.C.S. pressed hard for the next ten minutes but were unable to score. In the sixteenth minute of play, how- ever, Richardson of L.C.C. eluded the School defence and beat Duggan max., with a brilliant shot to the corner. Needless to say, the Firsts tried all the harder, but the score remained: L.C.C. 3, T.C.S. 2.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 SCHOOL vs. WESTMOUNT HIGH SCHOOL At Montreal, February 28th. A little down-hearted by their defeat at the hands of Lower Canada College, the School stepped out on the ice with a do-or-die spirit. Although they were defeated 6-1, they gave Westmount quite a gameg indeed, often for minutes at a time they had the High School within their blue-line. Shortly after the game began Main opened the scor- ing for W.H.S., combining with Clarson and Strachan to beat Duggan max. in the Trinity nets. A minute later Heron scored unassisted for the High School. The School fought back hard but before McLean notched their only goal Strachan and Clarson had both tallied for Westmount. Darroch gave Westmount a 5-1 lead when he scored in- dividually towards the close of the first period. In the second period Cwhich was the last because of re- stricted timel the School carried the play but were unable to capitalize. Strachan scored the only goal of the period on a pass from Clarson. The game ended without further scoring, leaving the final count W.H.S. 6, T.C.S. 1. Strachan and Hanson were outstanding for the High School, while Duggan ma. and McLean turned in good per- formances for the School.

For the first time in many years the School took on the College. Owing to slow ice surface U.C.C. were rather handicapped, but still they showed that they were a great team. Although the School fought hard, they were unable to cope with them. 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Three minutes before the end of the first period Dug- gan ma. scored on a pass from McLean to give the School the lead. In the second period U.C.C. set about to erase this lead and within four minutes they had shot home three goals, Ridler, Wylatt, and Osborne being the U.C.C. marks- men. McLean scored the School's second goal from the blue-line ten minutes later. In the third period the College further consolidated their lead by scoring three more goals. Osborne scored twice and Malcolm once, while Foulds earned an assist. Mara and Osborne shone for the visitors while the work of the Duggan brothers was the highlight of the School's play, as usual.

BIGSIDE HOUSE GAME, For the eighth consecutive year Brent defended their Bigside Hockey superiority by defeating Bethune 6-5 in a thrill-packed encounter. A feature of the game was the Duggan Brothers' act on the Brent defence. Hart started the ball rolling for Brent when he beat Beament in the Bethune goal and ended up wrapped around the goal post. Somerville, Bethune's sparkplug, soon evened the score and a few minutes later gave Bethune the lead on a pretty effort. Hart again tied the game up for Brent, and again wrapped himself around the inno- cent goal post. Shortly before the period ended Somer- ville scored his third goal of the game to put Bethune one up. In the second period Brent showed great style in scor- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 ing three goals to their opponent's one. Captain Wal Duggan, Moysey, and Hart lwho, incidentally, repeated his famous act for the third timel were the goal notchers for the victors, while Spence scored Bethune's solitary goal. The third period play was rather slower than that of the first two stanzas, but nevertheless was the most excit- mg. Halfway through the period Lyall scored for Bethune to tie the score at 5-5. Brent was on tenterhooks until McLean decided to score the Winning goal with five minutes to play. Bethune pressed hard but their eiorts went for nought and the game ended with the score, Brent 6.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 SCHOOL vs. PICKERING At Newmarket, February 22nd. The return game with Pickering College was a very fast game. Unfortunately the School's shots showed no inclination to go into the basket, and consequently the score is not quite a true analysis of the game. The first half ended with the score 12-7 in Pickering's favour. In the second half the School were again outscored 22-12.

The snow has been consistently good and trips were made every Wednesday and Sunday to Bethany, which is about thirty miles from the Schoolg or into the nearby country. The ski team, composed of eight boys, most of whom have come from Montreal during the past two years, is the first in the history of the School. The team took part in four meets this yea.r, the first of which was at Bethany on January 31st-February lst with Upper Canada, St. Andrew's and Lakeiield. Next was the Ste. Marguerite competition, followed by a slalom race on the park hill behind the hospital on March 5th. The latter was open to all members of the School with the exception of the team. Best time was made by Ger- man, who was not eligible, and the first three to place for the cup were Huycke, Hope and Mathers. It was also in- tended to have a jumping competition, but this has not yet been held, owing to snow conditions. On March 9th the ski team went to Bethany to take part in the Peterborough Ski Club student championships. In the downhill, Thompson came third, Strong sixth, and Birks eighth, while German, Thompson and Strong came third, fourth and fifth respectively in the slalom. There was no cross-country. Mr. Morse is in charge of skiing activities, and it is announced that the Planks as his skiis are commonly known, are headed for the School museum, having just completed their fourteenth year of very active service. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 sm. Marguerite Meet On February 28th and March 1st the ski team met the Lower Canada College team at Ste. Marguerite, Quebec. This is the first time the School has competed against any Quebec school ski team. Competition was keen, and L.C.C. finally emerged on top by a small margin. It is hoped that this will be an annual event. The downhill and slalom were run on the afternoon of Friday the 18th. The snow was very fast and a little icy, and as is usual under these conditions, the times made varied considerably. Lunch and dinner, and breakfast next morning were taken in the Chalet Cochand, and the teams slept in the L.C.C. club-house adjoining the Chalet. Our team was very kindly treated to a movie at the Domaine d'Esterel on Friday evening. The cross-country race, covering a three and a half mile loop, was rim on Saturday morning.

The Hockey Season As the Lent term draws to a close we can look back upon one of the best hockey seasons the J. S. has had in many years. The success of a games season depends upon many thing and generally some of these are favourable. This year, however, virtually all things were propitious and as a result a great season was our happy experience. In the Hrst place the weatherman was very kind, and some sort of ice Cgenerally goodl was available for use every single day from the beginning of term until the twelfth of March-a most unusual occurrence for us. Because of this, the boys had plenty of opportunities for practice, and nearly every boy of the Junior School is now much more secure and skilful on his skates. A second important factor in determining the reasons for a good season is the spirit of the players. This was of high calibre this year-equally high on both first and second teams. A third reason-and you knew it was com- ing, didn't you? is the success that attends a team's efforts. This year the first team won all but one of their regular school games, they tied one and were victorious in three others. The second team did almost equally well-winning two games-tying one and losing the fourth. The vital TRINITY COLLEGE sci-1ooL RECORD 55 statistics and more complete data of the last three games played by the first team will be found below. The School's third match was with Appleby at Oak- ville on February 12th. The School missed many chances around the goal because they were too slow. Appleby had the best of the play in the first and third periods and the Junior School in the second. At the end of the game the score was three to one for Appleby. The second Lakefield match was played at Lakefield on February 16th. This time our opponents were able to put out a much stronger team which made the game very close. The School scored the winning goal with but three minutes to play thus taking the game at four goals to three. The School's last game of the season was played with Ridley in Toronto on Wednesday, March 12th. This was an extraordinarily good match and the score was always close enough to keep the final outcome in doubt. Ridley scored the first goal but the School soon evened up and were never on the low side of the score after that. Ridley made a valiant but vain effort to even things up in the dying minutes of the game by playing six men for- ward but to no avail. The game ended in favour of the Junior School at five goals to three. The following boys represented the first team in the various games. 'fHoward, Decker, '5Sutcliffe, 'Briden, Thompson, 'Higginbotham, iPerry, Hope, Gibson, Dignam, Burdet and Roenisch. Those marked with the asterisk were granted colours. The second team played four matches with school teams. The first game was with Crescent here on February Sth. This was a first class match and there was little to choose between the teams particularly in the last two periods. The J. S. had a slight edge in the first. The School Won however by a score of 4-2. 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The second game was with Crescent in Toronto. This time the J .S. were not successful and after a very hard tussle, Crescent emerged the winners with a one goal mar- gin at 3-2 in their favour. The third game was played at Lakefield. This time the Junior School lads proved definitely the better team and came out the winner by a safe margin of seven goals to three. The last game was with Lakefield here on March 8th. This was an extremely close and exciting match. Play was very even indeed, and the score of two all just about indicates the equality of the teams. The J. S. was fortunate that their tying goal came when it did as there was but forty seconds left to play. The following boys represented the Second team. O'Gray lnon-playing captainj, Bovaird facting cap- tainl, Huckell, Vivian, Stokes, Forbes, Paterson i., Goin'- lay i., Roenisch, Melville.

And so great lighthouse, thou must know How many souls do need thee sog And always keep thy helpful light Still burning through the troubled night. - WH. C. Butterheld. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 DEATH RIDES In a lonely farmhouse in Scotland a tired family went to bed. It was a pitch-dark night with little vvisps of fog and rain. George, the eldest son, was just going to sleep when outside he heard a clatter of hooves on the road. He looked out of the window and, to his horror, saw a horse with a skeleton riding on it. He rubbed his eyes and thought it must be his imagination. Later that night, George woke up again with an eery sensation. He then heard a rustling of the Virginia creeper outside his window. He saw a hand and then another and suddenly the face appear. It was a ghost , A ghost , he screamed, and bolted down the corridor as fast as he could. He wake-ned his father and they rushed downstairs with an old musket his father had, and opened the door. They saw Death riding on his pale horse. He had a scythe in his hand and, as they heard the hooves clatter- ing away, there arose a terrific crash and the wind whistled more than ever. Next morning they got up early, in spite of their strenuous and exciting night. They told nobody and kept deep in thought all day. They found that a tree had fallen down and blocked the road, pushed down a haystack and killed five sheep. Many more trees had fallen down elsewhere and caused more damage. When the postman came that evening there was one letter addressed to George. He opened it and to his astonishment he read these words: Beware, Death Rides . He laughed a little sarcastically, and then threw it in the fire. At about midnight that night a blood-curdling scream was hea.rd, a crash, a moan and then . . . silence ! I ! Next morning George did not come down to break- fast. His father went upstairs to see what could be wrong with him. He found his son dead in his bed. A note 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD was pinned onto his pyjamas. It said: Because your son threw my letter into the fire he died. Beware, you are the next victim. It was signed: Death and his pale hgrgef' -J.J.M.P. III. CHRONICLE Mr. Taylor, as mentioned elsewhere in the Record, has now become a Chaplain in the Royal Canadian Air Force. We are sorry not to have him about with us but it is help- ful to know that one station of the R.C.A.F. is very fortun- ate in having him as their padre. We extend our hearty congratulations to Mr. C. J. Tottenham on his recent promotion to the rank of Captain -R.C.A. lReservel. We have all missed Mr. Cohu very much during his enforced absence through illness. At the time of Writing however we hear reports that he is much better and shortly expected to return to duty. Let us hope that by the time this number of the Record appears before its readers the infernal noises under Mr. Cohu's baton are once more issuing forth from the regions of the music roorn. To Mr. Nind of Grafton, who is taking Mr. Taylor's R.K. classes we bid a hearty welcome and extend the hope that he will enjoy his time at the Junior School. To Mr. Millson who is helping us out during Mr. Cohu's temporary absence we say welcome and thank you. Also departed from our midst is Mr. Lawren Harris, Jr., our art master who has been called up for service in the armed forces. We were just beginning to know Mr. Harris well when he was compelled to leave. To him go our best wishes for the future. To his successor Mr. Warrener, of Toronto, we extend our welcome. The three gentlemen who have come to help us out have done so at considerable personal inconvenience and we are grateful for their help. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 69 On the afternoon of Shrove Tuesday, after witnessing the pancake toss, the boys of the Junior School enjoyed a special treat at tuck which was made possible through the kindness of Sir Hubert Young. The First hockey team was very kindly and sumptu- ously entertained at dinner on their return from Toronto after the Ridley match by Mr. and Mrs. Higginbotham. Those of us who were fortunate enough to be present will long remember the hospitality at Homeland Farm on that occasion. The School has attended the local movie theatre twice recently to see North West Mounted Police and The Thief of Baghdad.

Kei-mode Parr The Record is published six limes a year, in the montbs of October, December, February, April, Iune and August. EDITORIAL Thus far the School year has been a great success. Our football and hockey teams were better than usual and the cricket team holds much promise. Inspection provided an excellent display, while the Dance was one of the greatest successes in Hie School's history. The spirit which has made these achievements possible, the something which kept our teams going even in the face of defeat, is a phenomenon nobody can explain. Raised to a higher power, it is British morale. The heroism and valiant courage which the decorated Old Boys of T.C.S. have shown can be carried on, and must be carried on, by all Canada. No effort must be spared, by young and old alike, in order that the purpose in hand, the extermination of the cohorts of tyranny and oppression, be carried through to a glorious and decisive end, and to the restoration of a free world,once again at peace. -J.B.I.S. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD HAPELT om On Sunday, March 23rd, the Rev. Terence Crosthwait preached. Mr. Crosthwait has taken the place of Mr. Taylor as rector of St. Mark's Church in Port Hope. In his sermon he drew a parallel between our Common Prayer Book and the sword with which David slew Goliath. For many years afterwards, when David had iled from Saul, he used this old sword in his hour of need. Likewise, we too, must use the Common Prayer Book, one of our most valuable and trusty old weapons, in this, our hour of need. It is a weapon on which we can depend, for the saving of mankind. On Sunday, March 30th., the preacher in Chapel was the Most Reverend Derwyn T. Owen, Archbishop of Tor- onto. He chose his text from the book of Esther, chapter 4, verse 14, which is . . . and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this . He began by pointing out what an important spring the spring of 1941 is going to be, and how it will go down in history as a particularly critical and dramatic time, which will be the subject of poetry, plays, and prose in the future. Continuing, he said that we, at T.C.S. especially, have been sent into the world to serve this generation at a very serious time, and maybe for this very time we have been chosen. as was Esther. He reminded us how Esther, when confronted with the problem of saving the Jewish race, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 answered in reply to a request for her help, If I perish, I perish, but I'11 do it. We also are confronted with this very problem, and our reply must be the same. He concluded by saying that the tradition and train- ing that we receive here is a call to ight for God and to be the very best that we can be. T Sunday, April 20th., The Reverend T. P. Crosthwait preached in Chapel. He told us that the military nations of the World have abandoned Christianity, and reverted to the gods of force, Woden and Thor. These nations have recently defeated some of the Christian nations in battle after battle. The blame for the inefficiency of these must fall on those who take the wrong meaning of the Words goodness and righteousness . If Christianity is to be- come the victor, humbleness must replace haughtiness, and righteousness must cease to be traditional, for when we take the initiative, Satan will fall. The preacher in Chapel on Sunday, April 27th. was the Reverend Kenneth C. Evans of Trinity College, Tor- onto. He pointed out the necessity of a more extensive reading of the New Testament on the part of to-day's Christians. He illustrated his point by showing that the Gospels are not just brief biographies of the life of Christ, but a collection of those sayings and actions of the Lord most applicable to the problems of the early Church, both in general, and as individuals. Much the same problems confront the Church to-day, most of which could be solved by a thorough knowledge of these sayings. For example, the Churches could break down some of their barriers of pride and prejudice, and exchange them for a spirit of co- operation. 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The sermon on May 4th was preached by the Rev. G. N. Luxton, rector of Grace Church on-the-hill, Toronto. As his text, Mr. Luxton chose the single word, Grow , and he proceeded to illustrate how we come to school to grow in body, mind, and above all, soul. He mentioned the great amount of time that is devoted to growth of body and mind, and the necessity of these two for a full life. Soul , continued Mr. Luxton, is that intangible quality which gives life its reality and meaning. He con- cluded by saying that if we but have the courage, there are limitless heights to which a human being can rise. Essential for this, however, is prayer. We must pray for this tremendous courage, to become strong and grow in body, mind, and above all, soul. CONFIRMATION, MAY 11TH. The Confirmation sermon on May 11th was delivered by His Grace the Archbishop of Toronto and Primate of all Canada, the Most Reverend Derwyn T. Owen. He outlined the various actions of the candidates dur- ing the service and told us of what they symbolize. Speaking of kneeling and sitting, the Archbishop pointed out the necessity of prayer and meditation by say- ing that religion largely consists of thinking about God and studying the problems of the church. He continued by saying that the action of standing up and making three promises should be the beginning of everyone's doing his best to stand up to them. He re- minded us that we should not be shy of letting other people know that we are Christians. The laying on of hands is the summoning of God's strength and courage to fulfil our promises. Archbishop Owen said that we should make such a trip every day in spirit. to ask God for help. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 Next he quoted the text of the sermon which he gave here five Sundays ago, and recalled to our minds the story of how Esther was given an opportunity to save Israel with danger to herself, and how she replied, it may cost me my life but I will do what I can . Continuing he said that we have a reason for being here at T.C.S., for the good of the world. He then likened the thoughts which come in medita- tion to unnoticed noises of wild life which can only be heard if a person sits still and listens for them. Walking out of Chapel symbolizes the beginning of the long journey started at Confirmation. He told us that We must keep on Walking, no matter how hard it should be, and that We must ask God to help us over the difficulties and obstacles in our path. The Archbishop concluded by quoting his text, which was Isaiah's outlook on life when his country was in grave danger of being overrun by War. Even the youths shall faint, and the young men shall utterly fall. llsaiah 40301. Order of Confirmation Service Processional Hymn-Soldiers of Christ Arise.

I A TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 IN MEMORIAM GEORGE HYDE Word of Flight Lieutenant George Hyde's death came as a great shock to all those who knew him, and to all who had followed his daring career in the Air Force, iight- ing for the preservation of our ideals. He was at the School in 1931 and 1932 and very soon became a popular member of our community. After he left he entered business and learnt to fly. Only last autumn we heard of his being badly burnt after an air battle, but he was soon back in action. We mourn his loss, and deeply sympathize with his family. A newspaper records: Flt. Lt. George Gordon Hyde, R.C.A.F., younger son of G. Gordon Hyde, K.C., M.L.A., and of Mrs. Hyde, was killed on Saturday in a flying accident While on active service somewhere in England, according to Word received here. Flt. Lt. Hyde, who had been in the R.C.A.F. and had won his Wings prior to the outbreak of war, went over- seas early last summer with the 115th Fighter Squadron from Montreal. He was among the first of the Canadians to get into active service against the Nazis and was wound- ed in aerial combat on August 31. George Hyde, or Kewpie , as he was known to his many friends, was born in Montreal on February 11, 1914. He was educated in the public schools of Westmount, then Went on to Westmount High School, and finished off his schooling at Trinity College School, Port Hope. After graduation he entered A. E. Ames and Company and re- mained with that firm until the outbreak of war when he went on active service with the 115th Fighter Squadron. He went overseas with the rank of flying officer and served With the No. 1 Fighter Squadron along with fellow airmen from this city, who set up an enviable record against the enemy. He was later promoted to the rank of flight lieutenant. 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD fxf 5 P-NM C O0 -e f NOTES - INSPECTION Though it rained early in the morning of Saturday, May 10th, the weather conformed to a tradition that is be- ing made at Trinity, and the sun shone. There was a cool breeze also, which made things ideal for Inspection ffrom a cadet's point of view.J At 10.30 the squadron fell in in the customary place, the road by the rinks. Soon after this the flights were marched out before the saluting base, after which the officers came out. Immediately following this, Cadet Squadron Leader Duggan i. gave the command to form a line on the left of number one flight under Duggan ii. Duncanson and Tate were in charge of the other two. In fifteen minutes General Sir George Kirkpatrick, K.C.B., K.C.S.I. CT.C.S. '76-'79l appeared and took the salute. The Inspection party itself was composed of more high-ranking Air Force oilicers than ever Trinity had seen. These were Air Commodore G. E. Brookes, Group Captains J. A. Sully, W. A. Curtis, and D. C. M. Hume, Wing Com- mander Maudesley, Squadron Leaders Woods and Denton Massey, and Flying Officer Martin. After the Inspection came the rest of the ceremonial drill, which was very good indeed. When this was over, Bethune House Squadron took the field under Duncanson and gave a magnificent exhibition of rifle and squadron drill. Bethune squad drill was done at the command of Cheyney. Brent tried to duplicate the Bethune perform- ance to Duggan major's orders, and Birks took the squad drill. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 The playing of the Band was praised by many of the visiting oiiicers and others who attended the Inspection. The drummers and trumpeters had put in many hours of hard work in practice, and their excellent playing con- tributed Very largely to the success of the parade. The results were announced after the Cadet photo- graph, when the verdict was given in favour of Bethune, which means that once again that House wins the cup. fWe hope that it does not mysteriously disappear again.J After lunch the Senior and Junior Schools staged a display of gymnastics and physical training, which, thanks to Mr. Batt's usual excellent work, was a great success. Incidentally, this is Mr. Batt's twentieth year at the School, and it is largely because of him that Trinity has built up its reputation for cadet corps work, in drill, gym. and shooting. When this was over, the Headmaster spoke from his place in the gallery. He said that this inspection would long be remembered by the School because of the distin- guished inspection party. He went on to say that these were hard times for those who believe in Truth, Justice and Righteousness, and mentioned out of three hundred Old Boys on active service, our four dead, our four decor- ated for gallantry, one a prisoner of war, and yet another missing. He reminded us that our duty as a School is to use all our chances to strengthen ourselves in body, mind and spirit. He then introduced Sir George Kirkpatrick, K.C.B., K.C.S.I., who was at Trinity from 1876-1879. After congratulating the Cadet Corps and their In- structor on the excellent display he had seen, Sir George said: It is but natural that scenes such as this, surround- ings such as these, and above all, the assembly of Trinity College Schoolg the Headmaster, the Masters, the boys, the parents and the friends, should awaken memories of long ago when, as a young new boy, I began my boarding school life. 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Much has happened since those days. Experiences have been many, disappointments of course, successes sometimes, achievement if won, a notable occasiong but throughout these years there runs the thread of recollec- tion leading to the first days of life away from home amidst one's fellows, as a member of an ordered community like this: wherein one learnt how to stand on one's own feet and how to preserve one's own identity, and then one be- gan to size up school mates and in some cases to make friends who would be yours for life. And so to you, the boys of Trinity College School to- day, I would say treasure your memories of your life here, whether the experiences be easy or hard, whether they remind you of triumphs at games and sport or in the form, or whether they call up more painful recollections. For all throughout there is the necessity to live the regulated life in order to make progress, and in that life there is the feeling that should you be a transgressor, well, you acknowledge the debt and pay the bill. As you grow older so does your sense of expectation grow too. You wonder what lies ahead. What adventures will you meet in the days to come, and I have no doubt you hope for many. Adventure appeals to us all. It rings out like a chime in beautiful dreams, as we read our books of travel and history, of exploration and of great deeds. But remember adventure has many aspects. It is to be found just as easily on the land or in the office as on the sea or in a campaign. Adventure has two stages at least. The first is the resolve to venture, and when you take that resolve you must be ready to undergo the preparation which it demands, and to devote the careful thought which is necessary for its successful accomplishment. Your heroes in your books are often supermen. They leap into the arena fully equipped in every respect. It is better, therefore. to study the lives of great men in order to realise the constant severity and thoroughness with which they have prepared for their task. At this moment we need TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD 11 not look far for a shining example of this preparation. We find it in Mr. Winston Churchill. Well armed with your resolve and your preparation you will endeavour to compass the achievement which is your ambition, whether it is to be a Bishop, a Judge, a man of affairs, or a servant of the Crown. Your way to success will be long and hard and studded with setbacks and disappointments. For you, steady, staunch perseverance is the key in your upward march to- ward your goal. Your school days at Trinity College School should help you with their memories ofyour school- boy trials and their conquest. Life is above all the relations of one man with an- other. It is the human element upon which the success of your adventure Will depend, and to get the best out of the human being, just dealings, consideration of his Wants, respect for his views, sympathetic understanding of his character are the prime needs. In these days of war the outlook of every boy on leav- ing school will be coloured by many factors. So let us consider for a moment his prospects so far as we can ven- ture to do so. First of all our struggle is in a just cause, for Freedom and Liberty. Secondly, it does and will require from us the utmost individual and national effort and sacrifice. Thirdly, for the achievement of the victory that must be ours, We have to subordinate our individuality to the common cause, to render up for the moment our treasured personal liberty in order that the great ideal of real liberty for the nation can be secured. To some of you this prospect may mean the postpone- ment of the career which you now think would be your best road in life. To others the prospect of life in wartime opens a vista of travel and adventure with dreams of notable deeds, good comradeship, and a storied youth to relate hereafter. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD To both of you I would say, let your guiding principle be duty, whether it lie in the cheerful acceptance of any delay in your start, or whether it be found in the accept- ance of the risks and the delays which are inseparable from the daily round on active service. Duty as a watchword will help you over many a dif- iicultyg will comfort you in many a sorrowg and will strengthen you in themoment of action. Finally, there lies ahead of all youths today the pro- spect of a world in the making. Not the New Order of Germany, but the Fair Deal of free, liberty loving peoples, who resolve that every man and every woman shall have the chance to prove their worth and their quality. A society based on the dual principle of equality of opportunity and equality of obligation. To you, the boys at this School, will open the prospect of taking your share in the shaping of this new world. On you will fall the task of framing the policies which will bring to fruition the visions of those who contemplate a nation, free and happyg a nation strong in its determina- tion to be just to all, and to protect the right. To you, boys, that nation is Canada, a member of the British Empire. Canada free, Canada happy, Canada prosperous, Can- ada prepared to defend herself and ready to fulfil her duty to her Sovereign and her obligations to her sister nations. SIR GEORGE KIRKPATRICK, K.C.B., K.C.S.I. General Sir George Kirkpatrick was born in 1863 and attended Trinity from 1876 to 1879, after which he went to Haileybury College and then to R.M.C. By 1885 he was a Lieutenant in the Royal Engineers and served in the South African War C1899-19021. He was mentioned in dis- patches twice, and won the Queen's Medal with 'live clasps as well as the King's Medal with two clasps. XI' TH if 1,J,xNc1131 I. I V-Xfxr TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 After that he was Quartermaster General of Canada during 1903-04 and then he became attached to the H.Q. Staff of Canada from 1904-1906. Until 1910 he was Lord Kitchener's General Staff Officer in India, and then In- spector General of Australian Forces. When war broke out, he returned to India to direct the military operations there. He became Chief of Staff in 1916. In 1923 he again returned to India Where he became G.O.C. of the Western Command, until 1927. When he returned to Eng- land he held the post of Colonel Commandant of the Royal Engineers. THE DANCE WEEK-END The long-awaited and much-postponed T.C.S. dance finally took place on the evening of Friday, April 25th. Things began at 3.15 p.m. when the Toronto consign- ment was delivered. An hour later the girls from Cobourg and all points east arrived. The guests Were then intro- duced to the Headmaster and Mrs. Ketchum at an informal tea in the Guildroom. To complete the co-educational touch the evening train from Toronto brought several more guests. After Chapel the ladies returned to their rooms to begin the tedious process of preparing themselves to meet the evening. After a frantic search of Toronto by long-distance telephone the decorations, which had been misplaced last June, were ultimately located and returned to the School. Fortunately, they arrived just in time for the Prefects to put them up. On a shield covering the clock was the emblem of the Red Cross-to which organization went the proceeds of the dance-and on the panelling there were the shields of the schools of the Little Big Four. Maroon and black crepe bunting hung across the Hall, supported by the chandeliers in the centre. The orchestra, equipped With the new Trin- 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ity music-stands, played from the dais at the head of the Hall. By the time the dancing got under way the gallery was crowded with kibitzers, now sorry that they were not below. Paronomasia was skilfully employed in converting the cocoa-room into a joint labelled the No Name Dive. lParonomasia obvious.J Behind the refreshment bar with- in, selling ice-cream and cokes at a great rate ffor the benefit of the Red Crossj lurked two escaped inmates from an aquarium, namely a porpoise lalias Porp Reidl and an unclassified specimen of marine fauna Cviz. Fish Caldwell.J Supper trays appeared about twelve-thirty, and Mrs. Wright came up to her usual good standard again. After supper all sorts of paper debris began to clutter up the hall, and noise makers might have been heard for miles around. Cotton snowballs were flying everywhere, while paper streamers had an effect similar to seaweed on the dancing. At two o'clock the hall was declared officially over by the playing of the National Anthem. It was so sudden that your reporter danced on for a couple of lines before recognizing the tune. Then the weary couples toddled off to Trinity House and the Hospital lyes, even the Prefectsll where fond and very lingering bonsoirs were said. Girls and their escorts began to appear about ten the next morning, dotting the campus at all points between the Houses and the Tuckshop. The rest of the morning was spent doing such things as tearing up respectable country roads in the Head1naster's pony and cart. Lunch at School was followed by an afternoon movie and at eight o'clock everyone found their way to the Gymnasium where they enjoyed the Dramatic Club's pre- sentation of Baa, Baa, Black Sheep . Several unescort- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 ed girls were noticed gazing enraptured at their heroes land heroinesj performing on the stage. After this there was an informal dance in the Hall to the strains of music from the new loudspeaker. Festivities ceased at Cinderel1a's hour. It was all over!

The presentation was entitled, Baa, Baa, Black Sheep , which was written by P. G. Wodehouse and Ian Hay. The all-male cast included some remarkably beauti- ful women, all of which goes to show that we men can teach the girls a thing or two. Although the leading female character, Chickie Buff CDoddJ was, most of the time, dressed alternately in a clown suit and parson's apparel, she looked amazingly feminine. Britton as Hermia Wyn- drum, lively supporting masculine actress, quite looked the part. Hare was effective as Oenone, and Mrs Pottle as played by Reid was realistic. Charrington had the part of Emily Pottle. Higgins, who appeared with twins, and Allen, as a scullery maid, completed the female cast. The males in their own element were lead by Campbell who gave a very fine performance as Hugo Bonsor. German supported him well as a sophisticated snob, Osbert Bassing- ton-Bassington. Other characters were Lord Tuckleford lDraperJ, a sour old noble, and Rev. Wyndrum ,Berkin- shawj, a slow minded parson. Berry nearly stole the show as a police-sergeant, with his moon-struck assistant Lambert. Robertson and Duncanson completed the cast, playing Geoffrey and Mr. Tickle. The set was effective and special thanks are due to Mr. Warriner for the garden backscene he painted. The stage-crew did a great deal of work in improving the equip- ment, and the new proscenium curtains, footlights and other fittings should make the task of play production much easier in future years. We should like to record also our appreciation of the help of Miss Smith with costumes: and Mrs. Maier, Miss Friese and Mrs. Lewis, who gave the characters the best make-up ever seen on the T.C.S. stage.

At supper the Headmaster spoke of the loss the School has sustained by the departure of Mr. Taylor and called on the Head Prefect to make a speech. Duggan i., on the School's behalf, then presented a wrist watch and a scarf to Flight Lieutenant Taylor, who said a few words of thanks and asked Mr. Ketchum if the School could have a haLf . The reason he gave was that he felt like an Old Boy returning with his bride. Under the new regulations the bride has to say something to the School. CNot to dis- courage the traditionl. Mrs. Taylor therefore said that the last half that the Taylors had given the School was on the occasion of the birth of their last daughter, lwho some lazy fellow wished was quintup1ets.J Mr. Taylor took a busman's holiday, as the saying goes. by conducting the evening Chapel service. The loss of Mr. Taylor was a heavy one to us, but we wish him the best of luck and happiness as an Air Force Chaplain, and we look forward to his return to us after the war. Presentation to Mr. Batt After lunch on Saturday, March 29th., a King's Bronze Medal was presented to Lieut. S. J. Batt by the Head- TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19 master on behalf of Col. ffemiel, the founder of the Im- perial Shooting Competition. This medal was given to Mr. Batt in appreciation of the fine work he has done for the School Cadet Corps and especially in connection with the shooting. The School extends its heartiest congratulations to Mr. Batt, and wishes him every success in the future. -.i. l Shooting Medals The shooting awards for the year were also given out. Robertson received the Cup for the Best Shot and two Silver Medals for his shooting in the D.C.R.A. and Strath- cona shoots. Jones i. and Johnson received Bronze Medals for their shooting in the D.C.R.A. During the firing of the Imperial Challenge Shield, Fairweather made a perfect score of 100, entitling him to a silver medal, presented by H. M. the King. Johnson scored 99, for which he receives a bronze medal from the King. Half Holidays On Monday, April 29th., there was a half holiday in honour of the triple captaincy of Duggan ma., who is the fourth that the School has had. It is also of interest to note that Howard is a triple captain in the Junior School this year. On Thursday, May lst., our 76th birthday, the School enjoyed the traditional half-holiday in memory of the founder. The traditional half was given to the Choir, the editorial board of the Record , and others who earned it, on Monday, March 31st. . On Monday, May 12th, the School was granted the half holiday requested by General Sir George Kirkpatrick, K.C.B., K.C.S.I., after his inspection of the Cadet Corps, 20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and the subsequent performance of gymnastics and physical training. Visit of Professor Angus On Saturday evening, April 19th., the School was fortunate to have Professor R. W. Angus, head of the Mechanical Engineering faculty at the University of Tor- onto, deliver a lecture on the romance of engineering. Professor Angus traced the art of engineering from 4500 years ago to the present day. He began with the great Yu, the first hydraulic engineer, who was able to control the floods in China. He then mentioned the philosopher Archimedes, who invented several machines for warfare, and continued with Versuvius, the architect who tabulated the laws for the mixing of cement and the relative dimensions of houses, which are still used today. Continuing, the Professor stated that because there was no power, development was slow. In the old days people replied on slaves for their energy. With the inventions of Watt, Newcomb, and others, however, there came a new era. The steam engine was rapidly becoming efficient and practical. Otto invented the revolutionary internal combustion engine, Bessemer evolved a process for making steel, and Edison launched his inventions in the field of electricity, making it a ready source of power. From these inventions the astonishing- ly rapid rate of today's progress grew. Professor Angus concluded by outlining the possi- bilities and requirements of engineering as a career. He advised only those of us who tend towards mathematics and science to take it up, as it is on these subjects that the profession is based. Finally Professor Angus said that the possibilities for employment depended upon the quality of engineer that one turned out to be, and that there was not much chance of achieving extensive financial success, as professional men are here for the good of mankind, not for their own ends.

Hockey and Basketball Dinner To the strains of the music of such masters as Glenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey, the sporting element of the School enjoyed sirloin steak along with other delicacies, on the night of March 31st. After dinner came the speeches. The Headmaster started the ball rolling by thanking everybody and praising the hockey team. Others who had something to say were: Mr. Humble, Duggan ii., Mr. Dixon, Holton i., LeMesurier, Duncanson, Thompson, Caldwell and Somerville. Many thanks are due to Mrs. Wright for another of her well-known spreads with all the trimmings. Visit of the Third Canadian Armoured Regiment Classes were suspended for a while on the morning of Thursday, May lst, for the School to be hosts to some five hundred members of the Third Canadian Armoured Regiment. Mrs. Wright saw to it that the men all got coffee and sandwiches. The equipment was of great in- terest to the boys, most of whom had never had the chance to inspect such trucks before. The soldiers seemed glad to rest at Trinity. They were out for a practice drive to Peterborough, and were to return to their station that night. Some of the boys chatted with them and showed them the School, which they thought was very attractive. We were speaking to one soldier who said that he hailed from Toronto and had been in the army a month. He also said that he liked the army because he was going through his training at a great pace. 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Some soldiers, in full dress, started a softball game, while others demonstrated some very complicated rifle drill. The regimental band also played several tunes, among which was There'll always be an England . There will. Men like these of the G.G.H.G. are seeing to that. Visit of Mr. Gilbert Jackson On Saturday evening, May 3rd, Mr. Gilbert Jackson spoke to the senior forms of the School. Mr. Jackson was formerly the Professor of Political Economy at the Uni- versity of Toronto, and economic adviser to the Bank of England. He was also instrumental in establishing the new courses in Economics and Commerce, which have been so successful at Toronto and McGill. Mr. Jackson spoke first on Reconstruction after the war. He suggested that the Allies buy up all the surplus food and cloth for distribution among the starving people of Europe. This, offered to the Germans, might incite a revolution to overcome the gangsters now in power. He then went on to the recent developments in Iraq, where he had been stationed during the Great War. Although he professed to have little knowledge of the subject, Mr. Jackson drew a very vivid picture of the situation, and of its probable outcome, which is vital to naval supremacy in the Mediterranean. The School is very grateful to Mr. Jackson for his most interesting and enlightening talk. Recital by Earle Spicer Mr. Earle Spicer, the noted baritone, gave a recital at the School on March 22nd. Many visitors from Port Hope and elsewhere filled the Hall to hear his interesting concert of old English and American ballads.

After hearing him, the School was certainly of the opinion that Mr. Spicer's performance exceeded his reputation. The evening was most enjoyable. l,. School Concert A distinct success was scored when the School or- chestra gave a concert from half-past seven until eight- fifteen on May 5th. Some of the selections played were La Gavotte ' Land of Hope and Glory , Rule Bri- tannia . To say the least, the School was amazed by the Way in which Mr. Blachford had trained the orchestra. Many thanks are also due to Mr. Scott, who performed a miracle in putting together the double Bass, which was damaged almost beyond hope some time ago. The string 24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ensemble consisted of Tracy, Berry, and McLaughlin play- ing violins, Goodall the 'cello, while Huestis thumped the double bass. Culver played one of the pianos, and Mr. Cohu and Mr. Blachford fwho also played the violin! alternated on the others. The School looks forward to a larger orchestra next year. Visit of Mrs. J. F. Davidson We were very fortunate to have Mrs. J. F. Davidson return to us on March 16, this time to tell us something about the Balkan crisis. Mrs. Davidson said that Germany's rise to power was due to the great misconception of the British people, that Germany was akin to Britain and was her friend. Ger- many is our adversary because she is cunning, virile, and ambitious. Germany's plan has been to surround Britain, which has been done by capturing Norway, Denmark, France and the Low Countries, and by obtaining great influence in Spain. This, Mrs. Davidson pointed out, was Napoleon's policy of the Continental Blockade. Germany, however, has been unable to concentrate solely on Britain because of the recent unforeseen events in the Balkans. Mrs. Davidson believes that the war is just beginning and that everything, both material and mental, must be poured into the melting pot to ensure final victory. Invitation of the Toronto Racquet Club During the Easter holidays the Toronto Racquet Club extended a cordial invitation to all School pupils to use their premises and equipment free of charge. The School is most grateful indeed for this friendly gesture. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25 DEBATES On March 18th, the motion before the house Was, Re- solved:-That in the opinion of this house, radio broad- casting should immediately be put under government con- trol, as in Britain. ' Proposing the motion, Hull stated that radio broad- casting under government control would mean that we could get any type of programme any time We wanted, that annoying commercials would be eliminated, that the French Canadians could have their own stations, and last- ly, that radio would have great educational value. Waters, the first speaker for the negative, replied that under government control, radio might become an end with which to achieve political aims. that free speech might be censored, and where in England one station suilices, in Canada, at least five would be needed. Elliot used his time to refute Waters' arguments and to consolidate the reasons advanced by his colleague. Berkinshaw argued that the government now has all the control that is necessary. Huestis and Greene spoke from the floor for the affirm- ative, while Warburton, McCaughey and Hart supported the negative by giving voice to their views. Hart presented the original argument that under gov- ernment control, the radio would be all War and no jive . So the motion was defeated 23-12. .1,li On March 25th., in place of the regular debate, an in- formal discussion Was held in the Hall on the various forms of government other than Democracy. Mr. Morse opened the talk by giving a brief discus- sion of the origin and background of Communism, Nazism and Fascism. Tracy, Mackintosh and Clarke spoke up, chiefly on Communism. 26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The Headmaster then read from a translation of The Russian Primer for Young Communists which claimed to show how private enterprise and tooth-and-claw competition cause prices to be cut, the market to be flooded, the fac- tories to be closed down, and men to be laid off--a waste- age of workers and working-hours Then the Headmaster pulled the argument apart, giving conditions in Russia as an e:-:ample of government-controlled industry. Heaton, Topping, Charrington and Thompson then spoke from the floor. Then Morgan expounded his views on the policy of the C.C.F. party in Canada, which is largely socialistic. He condemned the government's action of suspending The Canadian Tribune , a C.C.F. publication, as being un- democratic. Warburton, Charrington, Butler, Harvey and Kovacs finished the discussion, which, after Morgan's talk, chiefly centered around the policy of the C.C.F. party, Socialists, and Communism. The motion before the house on Tuesday, April 29th., was: That, in the opinion of the house, air-power is of more value to the British Empire than sea-power . Austin, the first speaker for the affirmative, showed how an air force can strike at inland points, whereas battle- ships can only bombard coastal ports. Birks and Moore then pointed out how the R.A.F. had bolstered the morale of the British people, as well as keeping the Germans from doing more damage on their raids. Morris max., for the negative, stated that submarines are much more useful to a country than aeroplanes be- cause they are invisible and can get at short range to do their damage. Cheyney showed that the winning of the Battle of the Atlantic was the winning of the war, while Dewar pointed out the deadliness of a warship's armament compared with that of an aeroplane. The motion was defeated by a vote of 21-7. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27 1 Q , , A ? Contnbutions f UNDER'1lOW: AN HEROIC FANTASY The day is past and over All thanks, O Lord to Thee As the lyric came tumbling forth from the eager voices of the congregation I thought, not, O Lord, to Thee do I owe my thanks but to the person standing beside, who was singing these words lustily, though none too tunefully. It had been, to say the least, a frightening accident, and one which I would not wish repeated under any cir- cumstances. Spring was well on its way. The sun had soaked up most of what little snow there was. Bare patches of dirty grass were appearing between long streaks of muddy snow. On the hills to the north, through which the river turned and twisted, the rich brown soil of ploughed fields showed through long furrows of dirty snow in earthy ridges. The whole atmosphere was that of new life, of re- birth, of careless joy and light-heartedness. It filled me with high spirits and the longing to get out to stay. A peculiar energy was born in me and the odour of the dead vegetation with faint traces of the new had the same effect on me as blood has on a bloodthirsty person - I wanted more and more. So it was that in this spirit Bob and I set out, with a hot sun in an azure sky above us Warming us to the core as we Went. 28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD In our quest for exercise and excitement we headed for the river, which was reputedly breaking up at this time. The River was a sluggish creek most of the time, but when spring came it got the same feeling as we did and gathered all its energy en masse in order to crack and shatter the shackles winter had put on it. In the glory of its new found freedom it went on a splurge, rising high up over its banks and bursting with all its strength the last bonds of winter. f Even as we approached, it was awakening from its long hibernation. We decided to take part in its fight against the final, desperate hand of winter. Preparatory to doing so we walked along its edge past the big bend, up to the bridge. There were only a few open spaces, apart from a nar- row channel crossing from one bank to the other in a drunken weaving pattern. The sun was still hot, though, and would be for at least another three hours. The ice must be thin in some places. We had stout poles and, lastly, had been joined by several other people. We decided to start at the big bend, and, after some jumping and pounding, got a good-sized floe broken off. It carried three people across the narrow streak of dark water and then, being too large to go down the channel, jammed, and its riders jumped off. Flushed by our iirst success we worked harder and, aided by four or five newcomers, man- aged to break off another big floe which, this time, open- ed almost the whole width of the river. In this way we worked patiently, and with great success, up the river, in- creasing both the size of the jam and the strength of the undertow with each new floe. At last we were able to get really worthwhile rides. Sliding out from under the ice which was, as yet, untouch- ed, the black, treacherous water carried the floes, very white and clean in contrast, on its eager, hungry current, under the bare branches of the willows, from one side to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 the other. Sometimes it playfully grounded them, causing curses and abandonment by their ridersg sometimes it cruelly caught them in cross-current or eddies and hoisted them round and round in its evil fingers till, tiring of the torture, it let them go and swept them onwards to the end. Yet again, if it were a small Hoe with but a single rider, the river might leave it stranded between two currents till another passed which could pull it out. At the end there was the jam. The jam-growing larger and meaner everytime a Hoe came down, turbulent waters piled up behind it before finally plunging under for a long journey to the next air hole. Bob and I were doing our best to break a fioe off from the main sheet. At last we were successful and began our ride. The dark impenetrable waters slipped us along at a good clip. I was stationed at one side to prevent our hitting the bank or going aground and breaking up, Bob was at the other side for the same purpose. We were well over half-way down and not far from the jam when I heard a slight crunching noise and a feeling of insecurity ran through me. I took a step backwards--but a split second too late. The heel of my boot kicked the main part of the floe, but I had no balance and went in. All sensation of reality left me. I thought how green the sky looked and how far away the trees were. Then there was a regular drumming in my ears-the funeral drums, I thought, and fiercely fought my way upwards. My hand inexplicably felt free-it touched something-then darkness again. My life flashed before my eyes like a high-speed newsreel and it was accompanied by a martial beat of drums. I recognized the tune the drums were playing now. It was the funeral march. I began, peace- fully, gratefully to succumb to the slumber they induced in me, but I again began to grow lighter and colder. Some- thing was pulling me away. I struggled against it. It was Warm and dark and comfortable here, I didn't want to go-but I couldn't help it. I could breathe now, though 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD uncomfortably and I still Wanted to sink silently back to that paradise from which I had so rudely been taken. Then something surged up in me and through the roaring in my ears I heard myself say, I can make it myself now, thanks. I shook the dirty silt out of my eyes and swam to shore a few feet above the jam beside Bob, in my opinion not only the hero of to-day, but of all days. I most certainly didn't want to leave this World, I thought, as I joined in lustily to the last two lines of the hymn, Lover of men, O hear my call, And guard and save me from them all .

Kermode Parr 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD INTHEIR WAKE I Here's a letter from father, he Wants us to have lunch with him in London , announced Mrs. Julia Cooper, studying the letter over the breakfast table. How does that suit everyone? she inquired of her family. Fine , replied her son Kenneth, Please pass the margf' 'Tm afraid I can't come, mother, put in her younger daughter Angela. I have to go to Brighton to see about something for the Red Cross. The village elected me for it. I might evenhave to stay the night. Julia now asked her other daughter, Joceline, dear, how does that suit you ? I was just thinking, she replied, coming back to the table with some eggs, I could get my wedding dress fitted in the morning, lunch with father, and do the canteen in the afternoon. Yes, darling, that would be lovely . Mrs. Cooper had evacuated all the family at the out- break of war, to their beautiful house in Sussex. There they had stayed since. Joceline and Angela had both worked with the Red Cross in the village, but Angela had taken over most of the duties now, as Joceline was going to be married in a month's time, to a man in the air force. Both Joceline and the rest of the family were busy with preparations for the coming event. Anegla, can I borrow some of your saccharine, my sugar has given out, demanded Kenneth. Thank you, the jam please mother, when shall we start? Kenneth was leaving school at the end of next term, but on account of the usual illnesses, it had broken up, so he was home and had joined up in the L.D.V's. Julia looked up from another letter and replied, I thought we might take the 10.30 train, that arrives about 12.00, but as they are so unpunctual I expect we shall get TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD 33 in about lunch time. The evacuees are arriving on Satur- day. I've a letter from that man in the village. We can put them in the west wing. Lynesridge was a lovely old home, it had originally been a manor house, in an immense estate, but the owner had gone bankrupt, and sold it. The house was spacious, built on one of the hills at the foot of the Sussex Downs. It was of red brick, facing south, with east and west wings, complete with an immense garden lmost of which had been dug up for vegetables nowl and a family ghost. I see they bombed Portsmouth last night , announced Joceline, looking up from the paper, and London has had its dose too-mother, what's that? Her voice was un- steady. What dear? inquired Julia, deeply absorbed in a letter. Didn't you hear, some one called me twice. It was like Donald's voice, as if he was in pain. She had now risen and her face had gone pale. No dear, you're hearing things Julia was worried, her daughter had never been like this before. I do hope he is all right, but I am sure that was his voice . Of course he is. Why, we had a letter from him only yesterday. This did not reassure Joceline at all. Her dream of the previous night came back. She had dreamt that Donald had been shot down while bombing Germany. Suppose Donald was .... But she put these thoughts away. Her mother was right, of course Donald was safe. She smiled weakly and left the room. At 10 o'clock, Mrs. Cooper, Joceline and Kenneth left the house to go to the station, complete with identification cards and gas masks. They took the car, as they still had some gas left out of their ration. The train was late but eventually they were borne Londonward. 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Shortly after Angela had left for Brighton and the others were in the train, a telegram came. The maid, Gladys, answered the door, took it and opened it as she usually did when all the family were out. If it was im- portant she would 'phone Mr. Cooper at the Foreign Oflice. She read it slowly, as her thoughts were miles away with her beau, Syd. It took her sometime to grasp the mean- ing. Donald feared killed in crash last night, Father. II What are you all going to have? inquired Mr Cooper, handing his family the menu in a restaurant, 'Somewhere in London'. It's such ages, since I've had some fish, I think I will try it , replied Joceline, passing the menu on to Julia. Charles dear, 1et's have something to drink, good, Now tell us how you are, commanded his wife. We have all been rather busy in the office, but you tell me the news, replied Mr. Cooper, after giving the waiter the order. Can we go to a film this afternoon, mother? broke in Kenneth I see there is a good one on, in Leicester Square . It was quite clear to Charles, that Joceline had not heard the bad news. He wouldn't tell her now, he thought, it would spoil the whole day, but still he felt rather awkward about it. Such a very great shock for Joceline, he felt so sorry for her. Later on through the meal, a man in an air force uni- form, came up to the table, apparently he was in the same group as Donald. Hul1o Michael, do come and sit down, it's ages since we've seen you. Have something , offered Charles, rising. Thank you , agreed Michael. Good ,morning Mrs. Cooper. it's cold isn't it '? He sat down smiled in recogni- tion at Joceline, and went on How's Lynseridge '? TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 Fine, but have you been flying lately? inquired Kenneth finishing his ice. Yes as a matter of fact I was up last night , answered Michael, sipping some coffee. Tell me, how's Donald ? inquired Joceline powdering her nose, for they were going to leave soon. The atmo- sphere became tense. This was awful. Charles made a sign at Michael to keep quiet and tried to keep his com- posure but failing miserably. He had hoped this wouldn't happen, but there it was. He had seen it coming and couldn't stop it. Michael faltered awkwardly Donald? Why of course, Donald, um-er .... He went white and stammered. Go on, tell me urged Joceline, then she saw the peculiar gaze in her father's eyes. Something was wrong . . . .but what? She glanced at Michael and saw he was hiding some- thing. If you'll excuse me, I'll be going , he faltered. Thank you . He left the table quickly, seized his coat and made for the door. Father, what's happened? Tell me , insisted Julia. Then it all came back to her. The dream and Donald's voice, something had happened to him. Father, what's wrong? Is Donald hurt? Tell me, I am going to be his wife. Joceline was thoroughly frightened now. She had never been like this before. Her face was colourless and her breath came in gasps. It had come, Charles saw no other way out, so he took a deep breath and plunged. Joceline, I heard this morning that . . . Oh Charles, I am glad to find you here. A large woman covered in furs and smothered in perfume bore down on the party. Do excuse me but your office said you'd be here with your family . Here she took oif one of the furs. Do tell me how the family is, but what I really came for was to tell Joceline that they want her at 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD the canteen at once. I see you've finished, if you get your coat I can take you in my car right away. The miserable Joceline got her coat. There, are you ready, good. Goodbye Charles dear, its been such fun seeing you again, goodbye Mrs. Cooper, give my love to Angela . Joceline threw a piteous glance at her father, and was dragged along. They went out into the winter fog. Good God, who was she? demanded Kenneth break- ing the devastating silence. Mr. Cooper did not answer. Charles, what's happened to Donald, was he killed? asked Julia quietly. Mr. Cooper nooded. I sent a wire to Lynseridge. Let's go, he added misery. That afternoon Kenneth and his mother went to the film. Soon afterwards they began to make their way in the pitch darkness to the station but as they were finding their way through the park, the raid warning went, beginning with an eerie whine, and ending with a devastating scream. The searchlights began their paths across the sky, the anti-aircraft guns burst into life with a deafening roar, and silently the balloon barrage went up. Julia made her way to a shelter grasping Ken- neth with her. No torches were needed to find one's way now. The red glow on the horizon increased. It was in the direction of the city. London was burning. III Time went on. Firemen and A.R.P. workers, toiled feverishly, but down in the shelter they were unaware of this, only a vague rumble of the deafening fire could be heard. Kenneth and Julia slept, but the others, for there were many, as the shelter was full, talked and sang to keep themselves from becoming bored. Most of the women knitted C one dear old lady nearly finished a whole sweaterl, the men played cards, while the children were told stories. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 The hours went by, once or twice the warden brought hot tea round, which he had made on a Primus stove. To- wards morning some one slipped out for a newspaper, which they all read aloud in turn. At about 7 o'clock the welcome but dreary sound of the all clear filtered through. Julia and Kenneth got out: they were among the few who did not have their gas masks behind. There was a smell of burning in the air. It was still dark but on the skyline was a livid glare. Poor London! Her lovely buildings in the city were razed to the ground, but the morale of her people was raised to the heavens. The Englishman is a stubborn animal. The more he is kicked the more obstinate be he becomes. Once outside, Julia's worries began. Was J oceline safe? She had told her to go back to Lynesridge after the can- teen. Sussex was safe. Of course she was all right, how silly of her. Mother, let's get something to eat, I'm hungry, aren't you '? said Kenneth breaking the silence. Yes dear and then we can catch the next train home, replied Julia, making her way through a ruined house. It was a dismal journey to Sussex. It was raining and cold. Have a peppermint, mother smiled Kenneth. Thank you dear said Julia looking up from her magazine. I am sure something is wrong at home. I do hope Joceline is safe, it is so awful about Donald . Later on the sun came out. It was a lovely day. The country was pretty and the sky was blue. Here we are, mother , exclaimed Kenneth, he had got out of the train to see which station they were at, as it was hard to tell nowadays, for all the signs had been taken down, in case of parachute troops. They got into the car and drove home. The village was deserted. It was lunch time. Julia was anxious. Suppose Joceline had found the wire .... 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD They drove through the gateway and started up the long, Winding driveg in another moment they would be home. I can comfort Joce1ine , thought Julia, she must know the news by now . The car rounded the last bend. Lynesridge came into view. Wisps of smoke curled lazily up to heaven . . . The Germans had been over Sussex. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT Mr. John Spalding eased himself gently into the sway- ing bunk of the train, and pulled out the Times. He was glad that he had remembered to pack it, for he always liked to look it over before retiring. As he was glancing over the second page, he noticed the headline, Missing youth still unfound. When he read the paragraph under the headline, he nearly collapsed with amazement. The missing youth was the son of his host. He could remember Antony Macgregor quite well, al- though he had not seen him for four years. He was one of those people that you do not easily forget. A tall red- haired lad, with sharp, aquiline features, and an imperious manner that bodes ill to anyone who dares to cross him. Only once before, long before, in the family of the Mac- gregors, had such a personality been born, and he had dis- appeared one night, never to be seen again. Early next morning Spalding arrived at the station of Tullark in Sutherland. There he was greeted by his host, Colonel Macgregor, who obviously was upset by the dis- appearance of his son. On the way to the house, Jack, who was an old friend of the Colonel's, learnt about the strange occurrence. An- tony apparently had set his mind on joining the Air Force, but when he had applied for a position, had been rejected on some physical grounds. Since that time he had never been the same and had made a habit of taking long walks alone. After they had finished lunch, Jack decided to go out and look around for himself. When evening came he was still out walking, and thinking. Towards dusk the weather became foreboding. The sky was dark and windswept, and whenever the clouds parted for a few brief seconds, he caught a glimpse of the setting sun, ominous and red. How- ever, that evening Jack Spalding was much too absorbed in the fate of Antony, to notice the weather. 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Before he realized it darkness was upon him. With darkness came the rain, turning the paths to mud, and causing little riverlets that splashed down the crags and crannies. Only when the last verstige of light had dis- appeared did he think of turning back. After twenty minutes hard walking he saw the lights of a house ahead of him. He hurried up the driveway to the front door and rang the bell. After a long wait he heard quick, short footsteps approaching the door. Then the rasping of a key in the old lock, and the door swung open. Instead of the pompous butler he was expecting to see, a quaint old lady in a flowing skirt stood in the doorway. Well, what be you wanting? Out with it quick! she asked in a querulous, cracked voice. Isn't this Glenmanse? asked Spalding, with surprise in his voice. No it ain't, and thanks be to God that it ain't. This is a good fourteen mile from the Manse. Now if there ain't anything I can do for you, will you kindly leave me in peace. Just then a flash of lightning lighted up the whole scene. In its eerie light the old lady seemed to become possessed with the devil, and to take on to an uncanny ex- tent the appearance of an old witch. The succeeding roll of thunder rocked the old house to its very foundations. Then the rain really started. Between the intermittent roar of the thunder, the gutters could be heard gurgling and splattering, as they were taxed to their utmost. Amid the storm the moor took on a form uncanny and weird yet somehow beautiful for its bleakness seemed suited to this weather. Spalding felt very reluctant to leave the shelter of the house on such a night as this. So he asked the old lady if he could take shelter in her house, till the weather subsided. I suppose we can't deny it you, but there is only my husband and I here, she replied. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 The old lady led him to the back of the house, where her husband sat smoking before the kitchen fire. He was a gaunt old man, with shifty eyes that avoided looking at the tall stranger. He never uttered a word the whole even- ing but just sat and smoked his pipe. Towards midnight when the storm still showed no sign of abating, Spalding asked the old lady if she could put him up for the night. The old lady hesitated before she answered, then with great deliberation she said, I am afraid that I can only let you have the Prince's bed, the other rooms are locked up. What is wrong with the Prince's bed? asked Spald- mg. Well queer stories have been circulating about it ever since that memorable night when Bonnie Prince Charlie slept in it. The people round here say that it has a curse on it, but they are a very suspicious lot. Nonsense, my good woman! said Spalding. I have never heard of a ghost story that was true. I'll sleep in it just to prove my point. Very Well, but I have warned you. Here, John, will you show this gentleman the Prince's room ? For the first time that night the old man stood up. In the gloom Spalding saw that he was terribly mishapen. Without a word he guided Spalding up a long flight of stairs and down a dark passage until they came face to face with a big oak door. The old man opened the door, and giving Spalding the lantern, motioned him to enter. Then, still without uttering a word, he closed the door and slipped away into the darkness. When Spalding had accustomed himself to the feeble glow given out by the lantern, he cast his eyes round the room. On the far side of the room he saw a huge four- poster. It was made of shiny black wood, which glinted whenever the lantern's rays fell on it. The top of the bed was covered with a coffin-like structure, made of the same wood. On the posts at the foot of the bed were carved 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD hideous figures, that resembled the gargoyles on a church. Spalding quite understood anyone's reluctance to sleep in such a bed. For a long time after he had lain down in the old bed Spalding stayed awake thinking. He wondered at the strangeness of the house and its occupants. Why were they wearing such queer clothes? Their clothes looked exactly like some he had seen in Madame Troussands the day before he left for Scotland. Every now and then he was startled by the lightning illuminating one of the faces on his bed posts. With all these hindrances he found it very hard to sleep. Then suddenly, when he was turning over in his bed, a flash lit up the whole room. In that flash he could have sworn that he saw eyes peering in at him from window. He rose hastily and went to the window to have a closer look. When he had gone half way across the room he heard a strange creaking behind his back. He turned round, to see, resting in the place where his body had been only a few seconds before, the top half of the bed. Realizing that an attempt had been made on his life, he rushed to the door, but it was locked. Then he sped over to a door on the far side of the room, and hurriedly flung it open. With a dull thud a body fell out into the room. He stared at it. There sure enough, were the red hair and the aquiline features of Antony Macgregor. He too, strangely, was wearing old-fashioned clothes. Terrified by this time, Spalding opened the window and jumped out. At day- break next morning he stumbled into Glenmanse, thorough- ly exhausted and nervous. There he found the whole household waiting for him, including Antony himself. When he saw Antony he could only gape and stare. Then at last he stammered: You! I saw your dead body not two hours ago! Why! Where have you been Spalding? asked his host. Antony arrived home last night at about seven. He had been staying with some friends. Unfortunately his telegram telling us where he was, was lost . TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 Well, let me have some food, and then I will tell you all that occurred, said Spalding. When he had finished his tale everyone was silent. Then at last his host broke the silence by saying I think that I can clear up part of the matter for you. About one hundred and fifty years ago there lived near here an old woman, who was called the 'Witch of Tulk'. She, as the story goes. used to lodge travellers. Sometimes she would have a traveller who was unknown around here. When she received such a person, she would place him in the Prince's room. Then in the middle of the night he would be smothered by the bed. When he was dead, she would steal his money and dispose of the body. Our ancestor 'Duncan Macgregor, Who looked exactly like Antony, must have been killed in that Way, as it was evidently his body which you discovered. About ten years after the Witch died, her house was burnt down. As regards your ex- periences, I can only surmise that you encountered ghosts . This is the only ghost story that I can actually swear is true, as I am Jack Spalding. 5? ,, , Asif 5- ggi is SP' Ng-sp Shiv W o N.. !, x Q, X, . - ., El.

To the Editor, Trinity College School Record. Dear Sir: The great sacrifices made by those who actively par- ticipate in this war command all our praise and gratitude. In your recent article on John Archer, V.C., the integrity of motive and sincerity of sacrifice manifested in his giving of his life are beyond doubt. Yet the religious convictions which John's mentor expressed are so extremely confused, his statement of Christian pacifism Cwhich he states in order to refutel is so hopelessly misleading, that our silence, on an issue which probes to the deepest meditations of us all, would be a betrayal. As a recording of one of its Old Boys' convictions , and on the assumptions of friendliness and humility between contributors, I hope the Record will not refuse one more conviction. Anon writes: Perhaps it will not be illogical to pre- sume that these first commandments fsummed up in the words, Love God above all J are much stronger and more important than the ones the pacifist adheres to: Thou shalt not kill, Love thy neighbor as thself J, and in a show- down, such as war, should be given preference. As Christians, to love God means to love the God who revealed Himself in the teaching, conduct and death of Jesus Christ. The God therein revealed is One whose na- ture is love, whose method of persuasion fat cost of his own pain or crucifixionl is forgiveness. The spirit is love one another , resist not evil with evil , forgive seventy times seven , overcome evil with good , love your enemies . And we are explicitly commanded to be as per- fect in our lives as God is in His nature.

To say, therefore, that we can love God and yet forget the other commandments, that we can love God and kill our enemies, is a contradic- tion in meaning. Our greatest religious evil has always been idolatry, Wherein We would love God above all but would giveour own meaning to the Word God . Churchill talks of the retributive sword of justice , but Christ forgives his crucifiers. If We would go to War, do not let us betray our inconsistencies by proclaiming that we are nghting for God: how can We fight for One who commanded us not to iight? Yet if the Christian God is indeed God , upon Whom is dependent the very existence of the universe and Whose nature is love, then all our sel- fishness, revenge and war is a going against nature and a destruction of our real peace.

' -' 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD LIFE ON THE FARM FRONT Kovacs writes:- Thank you very much for your kind letter. It was a. nice surprise to get news from the civilised world. Farming is not too bad-except for the hours: Up at five, to bed at eight. Five o'clock is awfully early. But the cows do not seem to think so. They have quite a good appetite for this early hour. J. O. Hart and Bill Hope are not far away from here. I am right between them. Usually we are much too tired at night to see each other. But sometimes I get up all the energy I have and walk the mile and a half to see one of them. The horses did not kick us yet though came pretty near to it twice. They are like the kids around here: they do not like to be cleaned. My farmer has six kids varying from the age of four- teen to two. The two oldest boys work like men and make me feel like a greenhorn when they pick up a forkful of straw. J. O.'s farmer has not got any children. Bill's has a baby boy. Till now all I did was cleaning stables, burning bushes and fixing fences but tomorrow I'll start working the team in the fields. I am quite excited about it. First I did not like cleaning stables, it was somewhat hard on my nose, but by now I got used to it and take it as one of the things that have to be done. We contemplate right now buying a Model T Ford. When we have it we shall visit the good old School in our overalls. We are indebted to a scholarship candidate for the information that while the flower scatters seeds a.round , the fruit is merely an outlet for the apple tree's surplus energy .

How can we interest you, our readers, with an account of our athletic activities when they consist entirely of preparations for something yet to come? Or who would dare to prophesy athletic successes yet to be achieved? Ah! we have just thought of an athletic en- deavour that has not been reported-the Boxing results so on that pugilistic note let us begin. Howard has been declared the winner of the Orchard cup, awarded to the boy considered to be the best boxer in the Junior School. The complete list of bouts and results is to be found else- where in this number. This year for the first time in many years the Junior School boasts a triple captain. E. Howard is the young man upon whose rather slender shoulders the triple re- sponsibility and honour has fallen. He has our hearty congratulations and already the School has enjoyed a half holiday to mark his well merited distinction. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 Although we mentioned previously that the prepara- tions for the cricket season were proceeding as usual we did not record that they have been doing so in the warm- est and driest April that the weatherman has yet to record in Canada. Largely as a result we feel that the cricket teams have reached mid-season form Ito borrow a journ- alistic sports expressionl well ahead of the opening of the games schedule. May this augur favourably for the matches yet to be played. COne cricket match was played in time to record in this numberl. Chronicle Mrs. MacPherson, our nurse-dietitian, left the Junior School shortly after the Easter holidays to accept another similar post in the Province of Quebec. With her go our good Wishes for every success in her new work. We will long remember her untiring efforts on our behalf and our well-fed appearance is largely her doing. To her successor, Mrs. Crowe, we extend a hearty wel- come and the hope that she will enjoy her new life and Work here. Choir Notes The Junior School choristers should be justly proud of their excellent singing at the Confirmation Service this term. Their rendering of Mendelssohn's I waited for the Lord from memory with little time for preparation was quite an achievement. Jones, Vivian and Butterfield as leads were all that leads should be and much credit is due to them for the success of the Anthem, and the service generally. The J.S. Choir has put in a very good year's work, giving up much play-time to rehearse so that Chapel ser- vices may be maintained at their usual high standard. 60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Music for Speech Day is well in hand and it is expect- ed that the J.S. Choir with the valuable help always given by the Senior School Choristers, will give a good perform- ance. A whole holiday and a picnic later in the term will be a slight token of appreciation for good work done. Junior School Choristers Jones, Vivian, Butterfield, Hope, Caldwell, Dignam, Paterson i., Paterson ii., Paterson iii., Paterson iv., Howard, Forbes, Stratford, Brocklebank, Leckie, Young, Hogarth, Grand, Morris, Burdett, Jarvis i., Burns, Payne. x Distinction Day Distinction Day honours have been awarded to the following boys, Bovaird, Hope, Stratford, Sutcliffe, Young, Decker, Howard. . ..l111- - Our War Guests Appearing in this number of the record is a photo- graph of the thirteen boys from abroad who are at the Junior School because of the war. We think the repro- duction of their likenesses a good one and as the school year will be almost at an end when this number appears we feel it is justifiable to tell our readers how happy we have been to have them with us and to state our con- gratulations to these boys on the excellent manner in which they have all adapted themselves to their new life under trying conditions. Since the photograph was taken two more boys of the above category have been added to the School list. 1 11 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 JUNIOR SCHOOL BOXING, 1941 Over 130 Lbs.

I haven't been able to pass your regards on to Hyde or Russell as I was in the hospital when your cable arrived and am still there, suffering from a combination of measles, bronchitis and what they now think might have been scarlet fever, which is very annoying coming at this time. Hyde has been posted to No. 2 Can. Fighter Squad- ron, which is still in training and Russel is shortly to be repatriated so the crowd is gradually breaking up. Things TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65 over here seem to be progressing very favourably, there is not much activity now but I imagine there will be a fling in the spring. Hoping that all is going with the School and thank- ing you again for your cable. Sincerely yours, Paul R. Pitcher. if Si K 1 i In a recent letter from England, Lieut. W. J. C. Stike- man, Liaison Oiiicer of the 5th Canadian Infantry Brigade, mentions having seen Mr. Boulden, T. C. Brainerd C28- '31J R.C.N.V.R., John Kerrigan C29-'33J, Mr. DuMou1in, a former master at T.C.S., H. S. Peck C31-'33J, H. M. Jaquays C22-'24J, M. H. Cassils C31-'Z-343, A. L. MacLaurin C22-'25J, and many others. He also reports that Y. E. S. Ryerson C29-'32J is A.D.C. to General Odlum. Stikeman remarks that he finds his duties more exciting though not so pleasant as pinching apples from the Lodge, which he used to do ten years ago. 3 l Q O O Flying Ofhcer J. R. Grant C30-'32J is reported to be a prisoner of War, in Germany. Ill 12 if if i C. A. P. Murison C11-'13J who has until recently been D.A. and Q.M.G. With the Canadian Corps on loan from the British Army, has returned to the British Army. Il? fl' if i 1 A. H. Wilkinson C26-'30J on active service, is now in Sussex, England, after four months at sea on the Cruiser Kenya . He is taking a course there for his commission. Q 1 ll 1 ll T. M. Fyshe U21-'30l who is a. Captain in the R.C.A. writes as follows: I came to this country with my Field Regiment, R.C.A., but in June last I was transferred to the Air Intelligence 66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Liaison section attached to an Army Co-operation Squa- dron, R.C.A.F. As this squadron is the one oflicially at- tached to the School Cadet Corps I thought it might be of interest to you to know that at least one of your Old Boys is with the squadron. From the contents of the Record they would seen to run more to Fighter Squa- drons . As a matter of fact I have seen Paul Pitcher on a couple of occasions when he has visited this station. The two other officers in this section, rather surprisingly, are B.R.C. Old Boys. I have quite a time keeping my end up. I i If 3 Q Charles Lithgow C34-'38l writes from Somwhere in England: N I received a copy of the Record and it was as Welcome as a flashlight in the blackout. I have been over here now, some seven months and having lost touch with things at home, I was indeed glad to see news of the School again, and as George Renison said, read it from cover to cover . I have a short note from Bim Waters, and apart from that no news of anyone who was at School with me. From our point of view, this is indeed a nice quiet sort of a war and we can only hope that something will break for us soon. However trite it may sound, we are Somewhere in England and a particularly beautiful part at that. With nothing really better to do on weekends, the countryside offers much scope for walking, while the pubs offer equal scope for the greatest parlour sport there 1s. Since my arrival I have seen none of the grimmer aspect of war. I have been near ibut not close tol the odd bomb and have not as yet experienced a real blitz . Most nights, we hear a great many planes going over and if they were all Jerries I would have been closer to some excitement but there is always a large proportion of our own on the way out. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 67 The blackout, overpowering at first, is nothing but a darn nuisance now, while driving in it can put 10 years on one's life so quickly. Il' if Ill if SF The following news items appear in a letter recently received from Keith Russel C34-'39J: News of Old Boys around these parts is scarce but I will give you what little I have heard in my free time. The now famous Dal Russel returned home a short while ago and was received with the blaring of trumpets and the clashing of cymbals. With him was Ernie McNab who, at one time, was in charge of the Canadian Squadron over- seas. Dal spoke on the radio about a week ago in aid of the War Services Fund, and was very interesting. Cousin Hugh CRusselJ C33-'39J is seen around town occasionally and was home to see his brother just after he returned. Incidentally, Hughie seems to be living the Life of Riley and is enjoying the Air Force immensely. Brother Dunbar CRusselJ C31-'34J is a Sub-Lieutenant with the R.C.N.V.R. and is now at Esquimalt, his address being c-o Fleet Post Office, H.M.C.S. Royal Roads, Esqui- malt, B.C. As he is constantly being moved around he thought it would be just as well if mail was sent to his home address. X ' Q-vsQv 1 XS s X if ii . I A Q XX V Q .f iQl..

Prayer in Use in the Chapel for Old Boys on Achve Service O Almighty God, who art wiser than the children of men and overrulest all things to their good, hold, we beseech Thee, in Thy keeping all who have gone forth to battle from this School: watch over those that are missing: comfort and protect those in the hands of the enemy. Be with them in the hour of danger, strengthen them in the hour of weakness, sustain and comfort them in the hour of sickness or of death. Grant that they may be true to their calling and true always to Thee, and make both them and us to be strong to do our duty in Thy service, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

EDITORIALS The Royal Visit The crowning event of this term was the visit on Speech Day of His Excellency the Earl of Athlone, Gov- ernor General of Canada, and Her Royal Highness, the Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone. His Excellency is a brother of the Queen Mother and he has had a distinguish- ed military career as Well as serving a double term in South Africa as Governor Generalg Her Royal Highness is a daughter of the late Duke of Albany, youngest son of Queen Victoria, and she has throughout her life taken a keen interest in all forms of social service. The School had not been honoured by a visit from Royalty since the Duke and Duchess of Connaught and the Princess Patricia came to Port Hope on June lst., 1914. The visit of His Excellency and Her Royal Highness will long be remembered as one of the happiest occasions in our historyg two more charming people could hardly be imagined and it was a very particular honour for the School to be privileged to entertain them for most of the day. 2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The New Hospital Some idea may be gathered from the pictures repro- duced in this number of the Record of the beauty and efliciency of the new hospital provided by the thoughtful generosity of Mrs. Harry Paterson. This health control centre will surely prove of inestimable benefit to the School. The School Hospital, which had its inception in a be- quest by the son of the Founder and first Prefect of the School, Dr. Arthur Jukes Johnson, has for more than twenty years been the object of constant thought and care by Mrs. Paterson. It was Mrs. Paterson who provided the additions to the nucleus which made its first construction possible. It was she who took care of the removal and reconstruction after the fire which destroyed the last School buildings. At all times the Hospital has enjoyed a succession of gifts from the same generous source, and now Mrs. Paterson has had it rebuilt into an entirely new, splendid building with the best of modern equipment. On the outside the Hospital has become a thing of beauty, worthy to form part of a range of buildings as fine as we possess or may hope to possess when all plans are completed. Inside, cool, shining corridors with modern lighting give access to small wards which positively invite to sickness as a means to luxury! Actually, the arrange- ment of the facilities in a larger number of smaller Wards will enable better control of sickness to be achieved, even though we might be plagued with four or five varieties of infection simultaneously. The dispensary rooms, kitchen and linen room and other parts of the new hospital will all contribute to maxi- mum efficiency with a minimum of waste effort. These facilities will also contribute largely to the proper control of early symptoms and the general medical supervision of the boys at all times, enabling the School's medical stai to perform with the greatest efiiciency their duties not only TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3 in the cure of illness and repair of injuries, but in the maintenance of health and prevention of disease. No words can express adequately the debt of Trinity College School to Mrs. Harry Paterson. Her reward must lie in the knowledge of the benefits that will be the fruits of her magnificent giftto T.C.S., the New Hospital. Form Magazines We wish to congratulate Forms VA and VB on the really excellent magazines they made up as a project in English. Every member of each form contributed to them and we feel the results speak well for the quality of the material which should be forthcoming for next year's issues of the Record. A few members of the .forms are particularly to be commended for the typing, arranging and illustrating they didg these magazines will begin a sec- tion of the Library which we hope will grow year by year. . .i-.. -. fl' ff uf 1, wg f fa-l :jail Xxx V4 1 , .inlme .ti J5'3 .'f ' D I 5 . ,' 1 fl fade ' ral Y . if 1 4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD HAPEL OTES We are most indebted to three clergymen who gen- erously came to help us out when Mr. Taylor was called to the Air Force. The Rev. J. M. Crisall of St. John's, Port Hope, took over most of the Religious Knowledge classes in the Senior School, and the Rev. T. A. Nind of St. Georges, Grafton, taught the classes in the Junior School. The Rev. T. P. Crosthwait, now Rector of St. Mark's, Port Hope. very kindly took the Confirmation classes and con- ducted the Sunday afternoon services. We are most grateful to these friends of the School for their very valuable assistance. On May 18th., the preacher in Chapel was the Reverend T. P. Crosthwait. As his text he took I Corinthians 5:13. He told us that the war was being waged for the pre- servation of all Christian principles, such as freedom, jus- tice. and common decency. He then reminded us that one of the teachings of Christ says, God is the Father , and that it is His will that all men enjoy a just share of the wor1d's good things. This is not so today because of the fact that the profit motive has largely replaced the outlook of service to humanity. He continued by saying that the aim of the dictator- ships is to destroy freedom, and that the first step towards this was the opposition set up to the Church. The strength Nl Nl!

N 'S .-C 22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5 of Democracy itself depends upon the strength of its Church. In conclusion Mr. Crosthwait reminded us that we must not only win the war abroad but also at home against sin. On May 25th, the sermon was preached by Major the Rev. W. E. Kidd, senior chaplain of M.D. No. 3, on the School campus during the drumhead service. Major Kidd spoke of the British Empire as a power for good in the world. He told us what a Wonderful thing the Empire is and outlined the dangers now confronting it. He compared its freedom with the conditions in Germany, where Youth is merely state property. With us, Youth is allowed to work out its own destiny. He concluded with a petition to God to give us strength to overcome the hazards that beset us. The preacher in Chapel on Sunday, June lst. was the Rev. T. P. Crosthwait. Mr. Crosthwait spoke on the meaning of Whitsunday, mentioning how simply Christian- ity had come into existence in a second rate city of a second rate people on the the first Pentecost. The world did not realize its potentialities until it had gone too far to be stopped, no matter how much pressure was applied. Though so many of the apostles were martyrs for turn- ing the world upside down , still they stuck to Christianity, even in the face of persecutions. Mr. Crosthwait outlined how art sprang up in the Church, and how Democracy rose from it, snatching the world away from the brink of barbarism. Speaking of the present world situation he said that it can be cured if individual self-centredness is abolished, and men become humble before God again. 6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Memorial Service The annual Memorial Service for the School's war dead was held again this year on Trinity Sunday. Bishop Renison of St. Paul's, Toronto, preached the sermon. In his address Bishop Renison said that Trinity Sun- day was T.C.S.'s special festival, and also the last of the four great festivals of the Church. His text CProverbs 2O:27J was The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord . This verse was inscribed on a tombstone in a churchyard in a magnificent setting at Murray Bay, Quebec. He proceeded by comparing Man's spirit to a candle and then he illustrated that Trinity really means three candles in one. The first candle is the Church of Christ lighted by the Lord at Pentecost. The second is the in- valuable spirit of democracy which is being shown by nations such as the British Empire. The third candle is personified by the individual who holds up the light for freedom and courage, such as King George and Mr. Church- ill. The service was continued at the Cross where the Headmaster read out the names on the stone cross and also from the five crosses at the base of the monument. These newly added crosses are engraved with the names of those who have given their lives in this war. Mrs. Britton Osler placed a wreath at the foot of the monument and, when all was still, the buglers played The Last Post . Bishop Renison then pronounced the benediction and the band con- cluded the service by playing Reveille . - Lf iff, , 1 , 'f 4 4 ,'--- , , f, X , H-a z if f J, fg:'7g Pf3Q 7- fi. .X 'H ' 'ff' wi' f ff' I ll I .zx-- 5 A' 9 F J-I ., -L' I 43 J' gli, 1, ' :::::. f .133 br' -1,1 my 4 K iii, . lu TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7 SPEECH DAY Speech Day began early this year, the Cadet Corps falling in as a Guard of Honour at a quarter to ten, to be ready for the eagerly awaited arrival of His Excellency the Earl of Athlone, Governor General of Canada, and Her Royal Highness the Princess Alice. The Vice Regal party drove in past the Junior School, where the boys were drawn up in two ranks in front of the building, and stopped by the saluting base on the campus. Here they were met by Colonel and Mrs. J. W. Langmuir and the Headmaster and Mrs. Ketchum. The royal salute was then given, followed by inspection of the Guard of Honour by His Excellency. The Corps then marched over to form hollow square round the Memorial Cross, before which now stand five wooden crosses commemorating those who have given their lives in the present war. Here Princess'Alice, who was accompanied by Mrs. Ketchum and the Head Prefect, laid a beautiful wreath at the foot of the Cross. After a few moments of silence, the Vice Regal party proceeded up the steps to Trinity House. On the way, His Excellency stopped to speak to several people. In the Guild Room of Trinity House, many were pre- sented to the Governor General and the Princess, including Governors of the School and their wives, oflicials of the Ladies' Guid and the Old Boys' Association, and masters and their wives. Later the Governor General and the Princess were most interested in seeing every detail of the new Hospital. The Service in the School Chapel was held at a quarter past eleven. The clergy taking part were Bishop Renison, Flight' Lieutenant the Rey. Norman Taylor, Provost Cos- grave, the Rev. T. Crosthwait and the Rev. J. M. Crisall. After the Service, Colonel H. C. Osborne, C.M.G., pre- sided over the Prize Distribution in the Gymnasium. Colonel Osborne, after remarking that the age of the School was 8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD now at least a guarantee of respectability in the best sense, paid a tribute to the devotion to duty of Their Ex- cellencies. He was sure the boys would always remember this Speech Day as the notable one on which the Governor General visited the School as the representative of His Majesty the King. He voiced the appreciation by the Gov- erning Body of the interest of parents, that was one thing the School could always command, for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The Headmaster then presented his Annual Report, which is printed in full below. The Governor General began his address by con- gratulating the Cadet Corps on the Guard of Honour. The parade, he said, had impressed him by its smartness, par- ticularly the handling of arms, which had been quite ex- cellent . His Excellency went on: I must, first of all, thank you for the kindly way in which you have welcomed Princess Alice and myself to Trinity College School. It gives us great pleasure to be here to-day, and we are particularly pleased to be visiting one of the most famous schools in Canada. I have no doubt that those of you who are in the School think that this is the best School in the world. It is right that you should think so, and I hope you will continue in that be- lief throughout your life. An English Mayor once said that he was speaking without partiality on the one hand or impartiality on the other , and if I may be allowed to follow his example, I would say that the reputation of a School like this is a treasure to be jealously guarded both by those who are in the School now, and by Old Boys wherever they may be. Some of you are leaving at the end of this term, and you will find that whether you are going to a University or into one of the Services, it will be just like beginning again your first term at school. In fact, as you go through life you will be surprised at the number of times you are new boys , having to start a fresh term and learn new rules, TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9 and I can assure you that it is a process that doesn't seem to get any easier, but it is a wonderful experience, because it means that you are always acquiring fresh loyalties. Now that does not mean that you need discard the old ones. Each will be a stepping stone to the next, and you will realize how much happiness you owe to the acquisition of the great virtue of humility. By an understanding of yourselves you will be kind and tolerant of others, and other people will be kind and tolerant to you. Sir Edward Grey, afterwards Lord Grey of Falloden, who was a much greater man than most people imagine, once said, when he was Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in 1914, There is nothing that so predisposes man to understand as the knowledge that he is understood . There is a wealth of wisdom in that remark of a man of great modesty, who regarded vanity in all its forms as a vulgar and inadequate substitute for intelligence. Next I would commend to you the value of humour, because humour begets courage and courage gives us faith. Let me give you an example. A few months ago on a Saturday afternoon in London, a crowd of people collected round a roped-off space in the middle of a road where a squad of soldiers were engaged in the appallingly dangerous operation of extracting a heavy time-bomb from a hole in the middle of the street. The people round the ropes had no business there, of course, they were merely interested spectators enjoying a Saturday afternoon's entertainment. At the corner of the street beside them stood an elderly man selling evening papers. On the little blackboard, which he used to indicate the contents of his papers, he was chalking up in large letters the cheering announcement- ANY MINUTE NOW! Now you can't stampede people who have that sense of humour, courage and faith. The third great quality I want to commend to you is the virtue of humanity, which is really the study of man- kind. When you are at school, much of your work is con- 10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD cerned with the training of your mind, the mental discipline which enables you to think in straight lines, the importance of being able to discriminate between what really matters and what is merely trivial. But you will also, I hope, have acquired a thirst for further knowledge and especially a knowledge of the minds of other people. One of the greatest and most famous hospitals in the world is the London Hospital, and it has for its motto a line from a Latin poet which reads Homo sum, nihil humanum a me alienum puto which means, as all you Latin scholars know, I am a man and I do not regard any- thing human as outside my sphere of interest . Let that also be your motto. It will give you a zest for life which no more complicated formula can equal. And so I say to you, never drop the three important aitches-humility, humour, humanity. They will carry you a long way on the arduous but Wonderfully interesting road which lies ahead of you. The prizes were then presented by His Excellency and Her Royal Highness. Colonel Langmuir assisted by giving away the athletic prizes which had not been distributed to the recipients the previous evening. At the close of the proceedings, a bouquet was pre- sented to Princess Alice by Herridge, of the Junior School, the School Song was sung by the choir and all then joined in the National Anthem. After luncheon in the Hall, the vice-regal party spent some time at the Lodge, later proceeding to Port Hope for a tour of the radium plant, after which the Princess visited the Red Cross workrooms while the Governor General in- spected the local platoon of the Veterans Guard. Their Excellencies were accompanied by the Hon. Ariel Baird, Sir Shuldham Redfern, Commander Sherwood and Mrs. Sherwood. and Col. A. E. Duncanson. ..... -il-l1 TRINITY COLLEGE SOHOOL RECORD 11 THE HEADMASTEIVS REHORT Your Excellency, Your Royal Highness, Mr. Chair- man, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a very special honour for us to be privileged to have His Excellency the Earl of Athlone, Governor General of Canada and Her Royal Highness the Princess Alice in attendance at Trinity College School to-day, and I know I am expressing your thoughts as Well as mine when I say that we extend to them a most sincere and affectionate Welcome, this seventy-sixth Speech Day will long be re- membered by all of us as the day on which the Governor General and his gracious Princess visited the School. We recall with admiration the most distinguished military career which His Excellency has had, and We think of the signal service which he and Her Royal Highness rendered to South Africa and which they are now rendering to Can- ada as the representatives of His Majesty the King. We remember too that His Excellency is no stranger in the academic World, having been Chancellor of the University of London, and we have heard something of the many con- tributions they have made to the Welfare of their home county, Sussex. At this time of the breaking of nations it must be a severe wrench to separate oneself from a home which is engaged day by day and night by night in hurling back the surge of barbarism, and we are deeply conscious of the high spirit of public service which prompts His Excellency and Her Royal Higness to come to Canada. We hope, Sir, that in these past months you have felt the deep love and admiration there is in Canada for the Motherland. We are ever aware of the unrivalled heritage bequeathed to us by Englandg the sacrifices she has made for us and for the cause of Christian civilization can never be measured in Words but they are graven in our hearts and We only hope that our deeds in the future may give ever increasing and unquestioned evidence of our sense of obligation and sense of responsibility. 12 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD During the past year the world has been shaken to its very foundations and the savage might of a ruthless tyranny has crushed itself into every corner of Europe, turning back the hands of history more than ten centuries. All pettiness and self interest must vanish from us and in its place must come the white-hot flame of a determina- tion to stifle this monster which threatens to destroy every vestige of the life We have known and loved. In days like these a school seems a very small and in- significant cog in the great wheel of life, yet it is a cog which helps turn other wheels and transmits energy of mind and physique and spirit to the whole complicated machinery of our society. For that reason you have come here to-day and are willing to spare it some of your time and thought and give it of your interest. A year ago I told you we were proud to number over one hundred and fifty of our Old Boys who had volunteered for Active Service, to-day we are doubly proud to count just double that number, over three hundred 01d Boys serving their King and Country and the cause of Christian civilization. Five of them have given their lives for the cause, four have been decorated for gallantry, two are prisonersg we are indeed proud of the way they have re- sponded to the call, and we can never forget their sacrifices for us. Seven of our masters of previous years are on active service, four of our present staff are in the reserve army and one is in charge of the local unit of the Veterans' Guard. Mr. Taylor, our chaplain, was called to the Air Force in February and we have been very conscious of the gap he has left in our ranks. We are glad indeed to have him with us to-day and we look forward to the time when he will be able to return to his old post. The School this year has been jammed full, in fact for some time we were uncomfortably full with a maximum of 211 boys. More new boys entered in 1940 than ever be- fore in our history, a total of 92 having come in during the year. There was a time in the last war when the Whole enrolment dropped to 80 and of course we cannot be sure t TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13 that something similar will not happen before the end of this war. In two respects our enrolment has been unique, for we have boys from seventeen different countries and just forty boys who formerly attended English schools. These lads have adapted themselves extraordinarily well to our life and made many worthwhile contributions to itg I am sure this mixing of the English and the Canadians will do much for both groups. In some cases there were of course many difficulties involved in connection with this uprooting of English lads, but the Governing Body did everything in their power to make the change as easy as possible financially, and the Canadian boys have been, I feel, very good hosts. The work of the School has gone along most satisfac- torilyg last term only ten boys out of 150 were below the passing average of 5096 and 22 had averages of first class honours, 7 5676 or better. In the past six years thirty University Scholarships have been won by our boys. This year all Upper School or Senior Matriculation candidates must write departmental examinations, though the test will probably be more difficult than in previous years we hope our candidates will keep up the good record made by their predecessors. We have had more than usual success in our games-our hockey, squash and cricket teams being particularly good. Our cricket team lost only one School game, to Upper Canada, and that by a very narrow margin, and we ended the season tied for top place. In music we have made some forward strides, for the tirst time in ten years we have had a string orchestra, the choir has been called upon even more than usual and has responded in a most wholehearted and full-voiced manner, and we have had occasionally some classical music in the Hall during our meals. As a very large number of boys are taking music lessons we look forward to steady pro- gress in this important side of our life. Our Cadet Corps has well maintained the fine traditions which Mr. Batt has built up over a period of twenty years. Under him the 14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Cadet officers and boys have always put their hearts into their work and I believe the results give evidence of it. Owing to the war we have been on parade more than usual this year and on Inspection Day we had the honour of saluting one of our most distinguished Old Boys, General Sir George Kirkpatrick, who has won the highest rank in the British Army ever held by a Canadian. To-day we have reached the climax of the year's work and we hope His Excellency found his Guard of Honour to be worthy of his inspection. In shooting we have continued to have very good results. Col. Ffennel, the founder of the Empire Shooting Competition, wrote and congratulated the School on coming seventh out of the best hundred schools in the Empire and we hold the Canadian Junior Championship for miniature rifle ranges. Mr. Batt was given a King's Bronze medal as a tribute to his excellent record as an in- structor, and during this year two boys have won similar Kings' medals, Fairweather a silver medal for making a perfect score and Johnson a bronze medal for scoring 99 out of a hundred. In Canada as a school we came second to the Victoria Sea Cadets, being beaten by a decimal point. The staff of the Record, the School magazine, has worked well this year and produced some very good num- bers. the actors in the School have given some excellent performances, especially in the School play when we dis- covered we had many ine looking young ladies in our midst. and the work of the art department has gone ahead under some handicaps owing to Mr. Schaefer's absence. I have to record the deaths of two senior members of the Governing Body, Mr. L. H. Baldwin and Dr. J. C. Maynard. Both gave the utmost interest and affection to the affairs of their old School during all the best years of their life and we shall miss them deeply. Mr. C. A. Bogert and Mr. R. C. H. Cassels have resign- ed from the Board after many years of service. We can never thank them sufficiently for all they have done and we are glad to know that they will always unofficially be members of our inner council. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15 We are privileged to welcome several old friends to the ranks of the Governing Body and I am glad to see so many of them here to-day. The Right Rev. R. J. Renison, Rear Admiral P. W. Nelles, Air Marshal W. A. Bishop, V.C., Lt. Col. Gerald Birks, Mr. J. D. Johnson, Mr. Roy Jones, Col. J. E. Osborne, Mr. W. M. Pearce, and Mr. G. M. Huycke have all consented to join us and we shall be the stronger for their good counsel. I am very sorry indeed to have to announce the resign- ation of Mr. R. F. Yates from the principalship of the Junior School. I brought Mr. Yates here eight years ago and in the comparatively short time he has been with us he has held two important posts. For the past six years he has been head of the Junior School and by the skill with which he has acquitted himself he has shown himself to be a schoolmaster of no ordinary accomplishments. In the classroom, on the playing iields, but perhaps most of all in the multitudinous informal meetings with boys and colleagues he has always been understanding and helpful and genial. Now he leaves us to enter the realm of busi- nessg we shall miss him and Mrs. Yates more than we can say but they carry with them our heartfelt good wishes in the new work they have chosen. To fill the vacancy caused by Mr. Yates' resignation I am very glad to announce that the Governing Body has appointed Mr. C. J. Tottenham as Housemaster of the Junior School. Mr. Tottenham has been with us four years and there is no doubt in our minds that he is just the man to direct the life of the Junior School. We nearly lost him to a well known University in the United States two years ago, but his heart is in the school life and particularly I think in T.C.S.g we look forward with pleasure and con- fidence to his regime and we know he will be most ably supported by his charming wife. Many generous gifts have been made to the School again this year including four valuable bursaries to assist boys Whose families have been adversely affected because 16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD of the war. To the Ladies' Guild, and to all our kind friends we extend our deep gratitude for their generosity to us as a School. Just two weeks ago we officially opened an addition to our equipment which has already been of real service to the School and has been admired by hundreds of people. The new hospital has been given to us by Mrs. Harry Paterson of Toronto in memory of her husband who was a pupil at the School from 1866-1869. It is impossible to express proper appreciation of this gift 3 only those who know boarding school life can realize the great benefits to health and happiness by having a hospital fully adequate for all our needs and modern in every respect. By this gift Mrs. Paterson is surely bringing to many boys not immunity from illness but every opportunity to recover quickly and comfortably and in that way she has made a vital contribution to the health of the School. I cannot say more than that, but I think you should know that Mrs. Paterson's kindness in this respect has gone on for twenty years and has extended to every detail connected with the hospitalg it has now been climaxed by this Wonderful gift. This year I meant to be very brief in my remarks and I have omitted many details I should like to have mentioned about our life here during the year. There is something I cannot omit mentioning for it is the School itself. Trinity College School has had many fine boys in the past but it is my considered conviction after nine months of fairly close study of the 'exhibit' that the boys of 1940-1941 can stand shoulder to shoulder with the best of former years and not be found wanting. Eight years ago I remember mentioning that we were trying to inculcate a spirit of happy co-operation and responsibility, of self-reliance and disciplined individual initiative. We did not wish to herd boys in masses, to try to teach them en bloc, to control them by force, but we wanted each one of them to begin to realize his own immense possibilities of development and to begin directing himself toward a really worthwhile TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 vision of his future. I feel that the School has made real progress in this respect, and I am indebted to all the mem- bers of the staff for their wholehearted co-operation and the devotion they have shown to their great work. The boys make a school and I have no hesitation in saying that the boys of 1940-1941 from the top to the bottom have made a good School and have set a worthy example for those who follow them. It is the spirit of a people which counts, it is the spirit of an army which wins out, it is the spirit of a school which makes the difference between a mere institution and a life that is a really worthwhile and a fully rounded prepara- tion for the future. That spirit must take its root in something deeper than material gain, something broader than mere ambitiong it must be rooted and grounded on the teachings of the New Testament and it will then ex- press itself in a happy service to one's fellow men. For twenty or more years we have been thinking that was a nice ideal to hold up on Speech Days and at church services but of course the real workaday world was a hard- fisted place where every man was out for himself and the devil take the hindmost. The world of getting and spending in any way we could, in as large quantities as we could, without any ideal, without any lasting contribution to future generations, without any vision beyond the next twenty-four hours led inevitably to the world of to-day where large masses have degenerated into the tooth and claw disorder of the jungle. In a moving sermon in our Chapel last Sunday Bishop Renison quoted these words: 'The Spirit of Man is the Candle of the Lord'. It is true that after great sacrifice again, a new awakening is taking place, and it burns as a beacon in the darkness of our strife. It first showed it- self in the East, then it flared forth in the island home of our fathers, and we hope it is now beginning to burn brightly on this continent. I do not think I am wrong when I say that I have felt the glow of that beacon in the 18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD life of the School this yearg these young men know the stern tasks that lie before them but they will tackle those tasks as a great and happy adventure, the Christian ad- venture, realizing that it is the spirit that quickeneth, that giveth life, and with the true spirit of the New Testament comes understanding, O give me understanding and I shall live. When I was a boy here I used to think our motto Blest are the pure in heart was lacking in a cer- tain tough fibre which all boys like to have and I envied such mottos as Do what you do with all your might or Through hard work to glory-Get Up and Get At It or Faithful until the end . But purity of heart, purity of thought, purity of purpose, purity of vision, constitutes the garden in which the spirit lives and moves and has its being. giving ai deeper. richer, fuller life. Then there will be no difficulty about being faithful to the end and the Christian adventure will become, in a political sense, the commonwealth of man, When the war drums beat no longer and the battle flags are furled, In the parliament of mari. the federation of the world. Can there be any lifelong objective more worthwhile than that? This tortured world is crying out for men with ideals and the courage to work patiently for themg I know you will not be found wanting.

M. 1From Poems of the Great Warj Two years ago I taught him Greek, And used to give him hints on bowling: His classics were a trifle weakg His action needed some controlling. Convinced of my superior nous I thought him crude, and I was rather Inclined, as master of his House, To treat him like a heavy father. I wrote the usual reports Upon his lack of concentrationng Though certainly at winter Sports He did not earn this condemnation. I took him out San Moritz Way One Christmas, and our roles inverted, For in the land of ski and sleigh His mastery was soon asserted. I thought him just a normal lad, Well-mannered, wholesome, unaffectedg The makings of a Galahad In him I had not yet detected, And when I strove to mend his style, Blue-pencilling his exercises, I little guessed that all the while His soul was ripe for high emprises. Two years ago! and here I am Rejected as unfitg still trying CAs Verrall taught me on the Cami To make Greek plays electrifying. And he who, till he was eighteen, Found life one long excuse for laughing TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD For eighteen solid months has been Continuously strafed or strafing. He writes me letters from the front Which prove, although he doesn't know it, That though his words are plain and blunt He has the vision of a poet, And lately, on his eight days' rest, After long months of hard campaigning, He came, and lo! an angel guest I was aware of entertaining. About himself he seldom spoke, But often of his widowed mother, And how she nobly bore the stroke That robbed them of his sailor brother. And still, from loyalty or whim, He would defer to my opinion, Unconscious how I envied him His hard-earned gift of self-dominion. For he had faced the awful King Of Shadows in the darksome Valley, And scorned the terrors of his sting, In many a perilous storm and sally. Firm in the faith that never tires Or thinks that man is God-forsaken, From war's fierce seven-times-heated fires He had emerged unseared, unshaken. There are, alas! no sons of mine To serve their country in her trial, Embattled in the cause divine Of sacrifice and self-denial, But if there were. I could not pray That God might shield them from disaster More strongly than I plead to-day For this my pupil and my master. ! TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29 THE OPENING OF THE NEW HOSPITAL A large number of guests from out of town came down for lunch in Hall on May 31st, the day set for this happy occasion. After coffee at the Lodge the visitors and School gathered on the terrace in front of Trinity House and just across from the hospital. The Headmaster made a short speech in which he said Twenty years ago Mrs. Paterson remade the hospital in memory of her husband U66-'69l, a contemporary of Osler's. Mr. Paterson attended the School both at Weston and at Port Hope. During the past twenty years Mrs. Paterson has quietly and inconspicuously added to the equipment in in- numerable ways. Her generous offer always came before the need was expressed. In 1928 occurred the destructive school fire, and the consequent removal of the hospital to a new foundation. The upper part of the building was rather shaken by the moveg last year it became apparent that if the hospital was to be considered permanent it needed complete re- building. During the past six months the reconstruction has been carried on so completely that a new hospital has arisen. These schools were founded in the first place by those generous souls anxious that the younger generation should have the best possible opportunities. They have continued to exist only because their value has been shown, and be- cause their friends have, through their gifts, enabled them to grow and prosper. Mrs. Paterson, by her repeated and continued thoughtfulness and kindness has brought and is bringing health and happiness back to many boys and is thus follow- ing the example and precept of the earliest Christians and the founder of Christianity Himself. No words can pro- perly express our gratitude to her, but year by year we shall remember her kindness. Mrs. Paterson then spoke to the visitors and School. She said that it was a great pleasure to be able to donate 30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD this hospital, but that the credit was due to the architect, Mr. Telfer Arnoldi. Dr. W. W. Francis C1888-955, a pupil, nephew, and Godson of Sir William Osler, then made a very amusing speech. Dr. Francis is Librarian of the Osler Library, Mc- Gill University, Montreal. In the course of his address, he said: It is a joy to revisit the old School, and an honour, if not exactly a joy, to address you. But it is also a shock to find myself before a school audience including the Head and other masters. For the inhibitions of fifty years ago, in this respect, are never quite lived down. However, I survived a worse shock of this sort in 1917, when I was a Major in France and there suddenly appeared before me an unannounced new chaplain, a mere captain, with a benevolent and unforgettable old faceg he saluted, reported to me for duty, and called me Sir . It was our former housemaster of blessed memory, the late G. H. Broughall, affectionately known as Pie lapple, not ratio.J He per- sisted in sirring me even after we'd had a good laugh over the occasional applications of the spankadiddlio , with which he had vainly tried to cure me of my lifelong besetting sin, being late for morning roll-call. He was the elder brother of our present pride, the Rt. Rev. Billy Niagara, who was boss of No. 4, the nursery , when I entered it in 1888, and whose lurid language, as I re- member it from those days, was certainly not what earned him his bishopric. i O O 1 O The theme which the Head has given me to talk about is 'The advantages of a well-equipped hospital to a school'. He knows them much better than I do. It is twenty years since I had anything to do with hospitals or the daily sick parade and the practical side of medicine, and more than twice that long since I had anything to do with schools. It has been well said that a librarian-which is what I am now-doesn't have to know anything, but does have to TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31 know where to find out about things. In this case I've failed miserably to find anything in print about school hospitals. Yet, they are no new thing. I remember our first one here, worthy of the name, after my time here, but before 1900. The cottage of old Byam senior, our carpenter, was converted for the purpose, after his death. I was much impressed at the time, but it was a contrast, especially in equipment, to the gem of a hospital which has been presented to us today. Doubtless time has dulled my memory, but I can re- collect only two disrupting epidemics here in my seven years, the influenza of 1891, which affected everybody, old and young, and sent most of them home for a not too happy holiday, and the pink-eye, which we boys welcomed as a joke. Good old Dr. Bethune, also of very blessed memory, took a different view of it. I think we were a healthy lot. We were, if the absence of typhoid fever was then a good indication. I remember only one case in my day, but I was specially in- terested, for I was it. Even so, I think I brought the in- fection from Toronto, and cannot blame the inconvenient old backyard well from which we individually pumped our jugful of drinking-water every night. I was put in the in- firmary, if it can be so called, a room in the basement and far from being well-equipped. 'Mammy' Rowe, the matron, and Miss Brown, the housekeeper, did their best for me. It was before the days of the real godsend-especially in typhoid-the trained nurse. Itisincontrol of the infectious diseases that a good hospital is of the greatest service to a school. As for emergencies, in 1892 a new boy, Pepler, fell in the Gym. and fractured his skull. He, too, went to the basement, and for days there was a really heroic silence in the school. We walked on tiptoe, with never a yell, scarcely even a forgetful shout. Lingering so long, he might well have been saved nowadays with our new hospital and the easily 32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD procurable services of that modern wonder-worker, the brain surgeon. Furthermore, such a hospital as this is a comfortable assurance to parents that the health of their boys will be as well looked after as their education. Il 1 fl i Ill It would be ungracious to look for any disadvantages. If there are any, they are not intrinsic, but due to the vagaries of human nature-or might I say puerile nature, which is still more conservative and inscrutable. The ideal school nurse should have at least one of her eyes in the back of her head. A hospital like this one has its attrac- tions, and I've heard of boys, who wanted a cosy day off, slipping the thermometer out of their mouths and into the proximity of the radiator, while the nurse's back was turn- ed. Even in the life of that paragon, William Osler, our iirst head-boy, you may read how he and two others at Weston deliberately slunk into quarantine and thoroughly exposed themselves to a pal's enviable chickenpox, with what success we are not told. In my day it took courage to report sick. It entail- ed at the very least a disgusting preliminary mouthful of Gregory's powder. At one time, however, a hacking cough was popularly cultivated. It assumed the proportions of an epidemic, and became a racket in more than one sense. Someone in authority developed a childlike faith in the curative values of a patent cough medicine, some- body's Syrup of Red Spruce Gum. It was decidedly palatable, and a 25-cent bottle could be got for one or two passable coughs and charged to account. It contained about eight good gulps, so gangs of about that number were organized. No. 1 would produce the cough and the bottle today, divvy up the swag, or rather the swigs, and report himself cured tomorrow, whereupon No. 2 would re- peat the beneficent process, and so on. Finally, alas, by simply making the said Syrup chargeable to pocket money, not parent, the Head at one stroke cured every cough in TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33 the School, except that of a few affluent addicts who pre- ferred their dope to the necessities of the Tuck Shop. 1 Q 8 i Q It is the inalienable privilege of the antique Old Boy to comment on the luxurious and sybaritic comforts enjoy- ed by his successors, yes, even to make himself offensive and call you pampered pups. Indeed the contrast is great between the amenities of your gorgeous palaces and those of the venerable old barrack which we watched burn on a bitter night in February, 1895. In one respect alone, its really beautiful chapel, we had the better of you. But to pass from godliness to cleanliness-there were six horrible tin bath-tubs in an outlying room, reached in winter through snow or slush. In my final year we seniors suffered acutely from a vow we rashly made to use those frosty tubs every morning before breakfast. I've hated cold baths ever since. Over the rest of the plumbing I draw a decent veil. It was non-existentg and there are ladies present. if 39 Sk if SF If the first of its Oslers could revisit T.C.S. now, several things would delight him, especially the science laboratories which bear his name, the library, and the new hospital. If Sir William Osler could have been standing in my place, how enthusiastically he would have welcomed the new and model hospital, and how gracefully he would have thanked our generous benefactress, Mrs. Paterson. Everybody then moved to the hospital where, Mr. Strachan Ince C1907-103, on behalf of Mrs. Paterson, pre- sented the hospital to the School, and it was accepted by Col. Langmuir, representing the Governing Body. Dr. Vivian then spoke, and the ceremony concluded with a blessing by the Rev. T. P. Crosthwait. Mrs. Paterson then cut the ribbon and opened the doors. .i- 34 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD '29 5 'O 'W' f NOTES Y - GIFTS TO THE SCHOOL The Ladies' Guild have very kindly given a new set of beautiful maple furniture for the sun room of the hos- pital: it suits the room exceedingly well and will provide convalescents with the most comfortable resting places. The Guild has also continued their generous interest in the School by providing two valuable bursaries, making a dona- tion of S25 to the Library fund, and lettering the names of the prize winners on the panelling in the Hall. The Port Hope branch of the Guild has enabled us to complete the driveway in front of the hospitalg the turn- ing place has been broadened, the banks sodded, and new stone steps laid. Mrs R. C. Matthews has most generously founded a bursary at the School for next year in memory of her daughter, Helen Matthews Somerville. It is of the value of S200 and it is to be awarded to a deserving boy to help him finish his course and go out from the School better prepared for life. L. L. McMurray U81-'83J has sent sets of the National Geographic and Canadian Geographic which have been put to very good use. J. F. G. Lee C98-'03J has given us a number of pic- tures of old teams and groups. Mrs. A. H. Campbell has sent a number of pictures to the School. Mrs. Lawrence Baldwin has given to the School a picture- of the dedication of the Memorial Cross and also a number of old calendars. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35 REPORT ON THE SCHOOL The Chief Inspectors of the Ontario Department of Education spent a day at the School in the spring visiting classes, questioning Masters and boys, and examining books, marks, and test papers. Their report to the De- partment has now been received. It speaks very highly of the work of the School and of the members of the Staig it also comments on the courtesy of the boys, their good manners, and on the almost ideal situation and equipment of the School. l.-1, THE GOVERNING BODY At the meeting of the Governing Body held last April Mr. R. C. H. Cassels, K.C., C89-'93l tendered his resigna- tion. It was unanimously decided to request Mr. Cassels to reconsider his decision, but later it was reported that he felt it was necessary that he be relieved of some of his responsibilities. At the time of the repayment of the debt some men- tion was made of the most valuable services which Mr. Cassels has rendered to the School, but no Words can do justice to the vital assistance he gave the School at the time of two of its three great crises. After the fire of 1928 he joined the building committee as Treasurer and no one can forget the splendid work he and his colleagues did at that time. Four years ago he took charge in Toronto of the campaign for the repayment of the building debt which was proving such a serious handicap to the School, and the unprecedented success attending his efforts and the efforts of those associated With him had the effect of saving the School from disaster. As Secretary of the Governing Body for many years Mr. Cassels gave untold time and attention to every detail affecting the welfare of the Schoolg never was he too busy in his very busy life to devote his efforts to his old School and he did not spare himself. 36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Though he Ends himself no longer able to be an active member of the Governing Body he has generously con- sented to make himself available whenever his counsel is needed, and we shall therefore continue to feel he is very much one of us, and ever shall we remember his distin- guished services to the School. if if 1 1 0 Several new members have joined the Governing Body during the past school year. In October it was noted that Mr. Greville Hampson of Montreal, Mr. Argue Martin of Hamilton, and Mr. Charles Burns of Toronto had joined the Board, and now we are glad to welcome the following gentlemen to the inner council of the School: The Right Rev. R. J. Renison C86-'92J, Toronto. Rear Admiral P. W. Nelles C07-'08J, Ottawa. Col. J. Ewart Osborne C92-'95J, Toronto. T. Roy Jones, Toronto. Air Marshal W. A. Bishop, V.C., Ottawa. Gerald W. Birks, Montreal. J. D. Johnson, Montreal. W. M. Pearce C05-'09J, Toronto. G. M. Huycke, Toronto. We feel it is an honour to have such men on our Governing Body and we hope we shall ever be worthy of their interest. Visit of the Iron Duke The Y.M.C.A. mobile canteen Iron Duke visited the School On May 28th. After leaving Britain it made a tour Of the United States, collecting donations for the Queen's Canadian Fund for Air Raid Victims. The tea- car showed much evidence of the aerial blitzkrieg of Lon- don last fall. On exhibit were pieces of shrapnel, bomb fins, and other odds and ends that are too common a sight in London. 1 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37 THE JACK MAYNARD MEMORIAL TROPHY After Dr. Jack Maynard's sudden death last autumn the suggestion was made by an Old Boy that an award be founded at the School which would always draw atten- tion to the value of some of the qualities for which Dr. Maynard was famous. After some discussion it was decided that a trophy should be given annually on the following basis: It is to be awarded to the boy on Bigside who has throughout the year shown distinguished leadership in athletics and who is in all other respects an upright and industrious member of the School. The award shall be made by closed ballot of the boys who have won first team colours or half colours, and the captains of Middleside and Littleside teams. Mr. Peter Campbell wrote to the members of the famous 1908 Championship Football Team, of which he was captain, and Jack Maynard was a brilliant half back. They were all enthusiastic about the idea and at once sub- scribed to the fund. Later several other friends of the School made generous contributions as a tribute to the memory of Jack Maynard. Some of the notes accompany- ing the donations read as follows: Even in spite of the fact that you have already stipulated the amount of my contribution, I think your suggestion is most worthy and opportune. That it should be started by yourself as Captain of the 1908 team and sponsored by members of that championship team is most appropriate. There is no doubt that this type of award will be appreciated by Mr. Phil Ketchum, the Headmaster, and the fact that it is to symbolize Leadership and Courage, will act as a real inspiration to all boys engaged in athletic competition, and at the same time be responsible for de- veloping that very essential characteristic, Sportsman- ship. Am enclosing my cheque and cheers to you for initiating the project. 38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Enclosed please find cheque. I don't believe I ever saw Jack after we left School but he made a great record and I think it is the right thing for the old team to re- cognize him. I am in entire sympathy with the suggestion and en- close a small contribution which I wish you would pass on to Peter. I think you did a fine thing in starting and thinking of a Jack Maynard Memorial Award. The Jack Maynard Award is a very nice idea but after paying my taxes I have little left to feed, clothe, house and educate my family, but I will gladly contribute the enclosed cheque. It has come to my attention that you are accepting contributions towards a Memorial Trophy for the purpose of perpetuating Jack Maynard's memory, and that to qualify as a subscriber to this, one has to be a member of the 1908 Football Team. While technically this eliminates me, I thought so highly of him that I would deem it a great pleasure if you would allow me to make my small contri- bution to this worthy project. Jack was a wonderful figure in every way and Was a great inspiration to me and my schoolmates when I was at T.C.S. His death was a great loss to the School. In common with the other Old Boys whom you have approached, I feel that I am indebted to you for having given me the opportunity of assisting in perpetuating the memory of Jack Maynard at T.C.S. I have pleasure in enclosing the cheque covering my contribution. I quite agree with the idea that the award should be related primarily to athletic achievements as it was possibly in that sphere that Jack Maynard's name was best known to the people of Canada. At the same time, those of us who were at the School with him will always remember that his scholastic achievements there were of a high order and. in fact. in our time the only other boy who compared with him in an all round way was E. O. Wheeler. CI am TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39 not overlooking the fact that there were other members of that old hockey team of ours, such as, Pudge Drummond, Doug. Hay, and yourself, whose scholastic achievements were well known.J Sl I am with you on this-anything you say. I was at T.C.S. many years before Jack Maynard's time but had a great admiration and respect for him. A very nice idea-cheque enclosed with pleasure. I am enclosing my cheque as a contribution to the fund. I hope it will meet with every success as the object is a most worthy one and I know of no one whose memory should be perpetuated at the School more than that of John Maynard. CK 66 3? if if if Pl: As a School we are indeed proud to accept this award perpetuating as it does the memory of one of our really great Old Boys, and we know it will always be regarded as one of the most coveted trophies in the School. The first winner this year was W. R. Duggan, the fourth triple captain in the history of the School. DRUMHEAD SERVICE The Cadet Corps had a new experience instead of the usual Church Parade this year, as on May 25th they took part in a Drumhead Service on the School campus. The Corps fell in at three-thirty and fifteen minutes later the two flights fBethune House as No. 1, Brent as No. 21 were en route down town. Here they joined the 32nd Reserve Company, Veterans Guard of Canada, whose parade this was. A contingent of the High School Cadet Corps was also present. The command to march was soon given, and the bands of the 2nd Midland Regiment and the T.C.S. Corps played alternately. Morris i. handled the big drum well, filling in for Svenningson, absent with a sprain- ed ankle. The route was from the far end of Mill Street, 40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD along Walton Street into Ontario Street, and thence by the Highway Department corner to the Junior School end of the field. On the campus the column was marched into hollow square, and the T.C.S. drums were piled and draped with a flag. The military order of service followed, conducted by Major the Rev. Canon C. R. Spencer, chaplain of the 2nd Midland Regiment. The sermon was preached by Major the Rev. W. E. Kidd, senior chaplain of Military District No. 3. Many visitors from the town and else- where attended this service. At the conclusion of the service, the Veterans Guard and the High School Cadets marched away, and the T.C.S. Corps dismissed. - VISIT OF F.0. DAL RUSSEL, D.F.C. After lunch on Sunday, June lst., a very good look- ing Flying Officer, sporting the blue and white ribbon of the Distinguished Flying Cross, spoke to the School about his adventures in the air during the Battle of Britain last fall. There is not very much need to say that his name is Dal Russel. Like all heroes, he was a little shy and very modest, but the Headmaster got him to speak to the few who might be interested . CThe whole School was therel. After thanking the Headmaster, Dal told us how happy he was to have been transferred from a potential job as in- structor, to the first Canadian Fighter Squadron. Then he outlined the various steps through which he passed be- fore joining an operational unit with the R.A.F. last fall, just as the Blitz started. The lirst day that this famous squadron went up to fight fAugust 15th., 1940J, 180 Ger- man planes came down. He next gave us the general idea of how fighter squa- drons are composed. There are about twenty-three pilots and from eighteen to twenty-two Hurricanes or Spitfires. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41 Only twelve of these see action at once, the rest being kept as spares. His description of living quarters was also interesting. He described a call to action and said that the squa- dron must take off within five minutes of the call. During actual combat, pilots do not speak to their base by radio, as all their attention is required for flying and fighting. When the iight is over the planes usually return in pairs or singly, as they usually get separated. Dal praised the operations room for their uncanny ability to direct lost planes home by radio, and to lead the squadron to contact with enemy aircraft. He described how he was brought once to within three hundred feet of his own aerodrome after he had lost his bearings. He continued by telling us of the use of oxygen, and the equipment that is provided for hailing out . He concluded his own impressions by recording that he spent a miserable winter up near Scapa Flow, and then he answered informal questions. Flying Officer Dal Russe1's account of the Battle of Britain was truly an eyewitness account. Its vividness made your reporter dream about chasing the Luftwaffe home. We wish Dal all the best of the luck in the world for continued success. -..1.- ..l - War Savings The purchase of War Savings Certiicates has con- tinued steadily to the end of the school year. Fifty-five boys in the School put aside weekly the whole of their regular pocket-money quarter, and practically all the others contribute smaller amounts. Up to the end of the term, the total subscribed since the plan was put into operation was over 3340. 42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MUSIC IN THE SCHOOL This year several forward strides have been made in this very important branch of our life. The Choir has again given unselfishly of their free time, and under Mr. Cohu's able guidance they sang consistently Well at the Chapel services, distinguishing themselves at the Carol service. at the Confirmation service and on Speech Day. At the Confirmation service they sang Mendelssohns I Wait- ed for the Lord and on Speech Day the anthem Was Bur- nell's Surely the Lord is in this Place . At the Sunday services the Jubilate and the Nunc Dimittis have lately been sung unaccompanied and they have been Well done. Some thirty-five boys in the School have been taking piano lessons from Mr. Cohu, and Mr. Blachford had five violin pupils. Mention was made in the June Record of the perform- ance given by the string orchestra. This group, under Mr. Blachford's capable direction, made surprising progress as an ensemble and their recital in Hall was given an ovation by the School, indeed they had to play several encores be- fore they were allowed to conclude the performance. Tracy was particularly good as leader of the violins but he was ably assisted by Berry and McLaughlin i.g Goodall has a beautiful 'cello and he played it very Well indeedg Huestis learnt the double bass sufliciently well to give depth to the tone. and Culver accompanied the stringed instruments unusually well on the piano. Next term we hope more boys will learn instruments and thereby increase the size of the orchestra. Early in the autumn a blackout concert was given in the Hall and the talent discovered then was to some extent put to good use throughout the yearg we regret, however, that Mr. Cohu's illness in Lent Term made it difficult to hold the usual sing songs. Next year we must try to make these evenings the success they once were at the School. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43 The amplifier and loud speaker in the Hall has been much used and on several occasions we enjoyed listening to the strains of classical music at our meals. In the lighter realm, there were at least two swing bands in the School, and Fletcher Duggan's orchestra gave a performance at the Christmas concertg several two-piano informal per- formances have also been enjoyed. We welcome these visible signs of a reawakening of interest in music at the School and we hope that increased forward strides in this respect will be made in the future. - Victory Loan Parade On Sunday, June lst, the School Cadet Corps helped to inaugurate Canada's Victory Loan by joining the Mid- land Regiment, the Port Hope Veterans Guard, some Frontiersmen, the Port Hope High School Cadet Corps, and the boy scouts, in a parade. The School fell in after supper, at half-past seven, and then marched through the town and up the hill on the other side to join the rest of the parade. From there the whole procession marched down to the armouries, where it was joined by girl guide troops. A band played O Canada while a pledge flag was hoisted, and then the parade was dismissed. The T.C.S. cadets marched back to School. The School band played very well, with Morris max. still filling in for Svenningson, at the big drum. Also of interest was the fact that we carried colours. Mr. Batt congratulated the Corps on their splendid performance before it was dismissed.

HOW CAN I JUSTIFY MY LIFE Some comments by members of the Sixth Form The first thought that comes into my mind when I hear that question, is the parable of the talents in the Bible. In this simple story Jesus shows us that we are all on this earth for some definite purpose, it is up to us to find out what that purpose is, and to make the best use we can of the talents that have been given to us. Many people are content to sit back and watch life go by them. If they can do this and get away with it, well and good. However most people when they grow up don't expect a fortune to drop in their laps, and to spend the rest of their life taking it easy. I think that most people are thankful for this, although one's first thoughts on the matter are that it would be lovely not to have to do anything all one's life. But on thinking about this question, it is easily seen that without any work we would either go mad or take to drink. The finest ambition that any man could have, is to hope that when he has passed on, he will have made the world a tiny bit nicer a place to live in, for his succeeding generations. In this time of war however, there is not an awful lot of time for young people to do very much to- wards making the world a better place to live in. As soon as a young man becomes old enough, he usually joins up. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 45 The best thing to do until this war is over, is to get as much as we possibly can out of our education. Then, at the end of the war, if we are still alive by that time, to try and do our best for the War-torn world that will emerge, in whatever way we can. There will be many chances of doing good at the end of this warg some of us may not see them, but those that do ought to make the best of them. With that thought in mind, anyone, by sticking to it, can lead in the opinion of all the world, a justifiable life. I believe, and I think most people believe, that every- one on this earth was put here for some very deiinite reason, that reason I think differs greatly with the in- dividual. Some men are born to be great leaders, and some are born to be small men to do an insignificant jobg and yet if there were none of these so called small men, there would be no world-Wide important men, as the only way We look at them is by comparison. Every man's first duty is to his country, that is actually his home, the place where he was born and brought up. There are actually many ways a man may help his country, and it is not necessary that he be a great states- man, or a great general. I think that his iirst job is to make sure that he is not a burden upon his fellow men, and to do this job well, he has to have three things, Life, Faith, and Ambition. By Life I do not mean the mere state of being alive, but a man must have health before he can do a job well. To insure good health, we have to take care of ourselves, We have to have a certain amount of exercise, good food, and on the Whole do everything in moderation, it is not right for us to smoke, drink, eat, sleep, or even Work to excess. To have Faith in oneself and in God is also extremely important. If a man thinks he is no good, then more 46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD than likely he will turn out that way. It is absolutely necessary for everyone to think that if they start a job, they can, with God's help, finish it. Ambition is also a definite necessity, for any man, to make good. If We are willing to do nothing and we are quite happy doing that, then we are not only a burden to ourselves, but also a burden to mankind. Thus I think that any man with Life, Faith, and Ambition may easily justify his existence in this world. As we leave school, we see our life before us. We can use it in any Way We like, and the question that is foremost in our minds is, How can I make the best of it? How can I justify my life? The main object in most men's lives seems to be to achieve happiness through money. Happiness, in my opinion, is the feeling that comes to one when he has carried out the purpose for which he was put on the World. It is not, then, a thing to strive for in itselfg it is incidental to the living of a life dedicated to good. By a life of good, I mean a life of unseliish service, service to God, and to mankind. We are fortunate in that we have an opportunity before us to serve in that way. There has arisen a challenge to God, and to the free- dom of men, to everything that makes life worth living: a challenge, in a word, to democracy. We must meet this challenge, and crush it before Nazism and all it represents has darkened the world. Our brothers and friends are already fighting the menace, and there is a place for each one of us in the struggle beside them. We can offer the most that a man is able to offer-his life. Many will die in the course of their duty. They will have given their all in the cause of God and mankind. Their lives will be justified. For those of us that are left Will be the problem of re- building the world into a better, more sure place, and that TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47 will be a task far greater than the one which we are now facing. It may be that I will be killed in this war, or I may be allowed to take part in the reshaping of the world after- wards. In either case I feel that I will have served God and man to my uttermost. I will have justified my life. After the war the country will need trained men to carry on its industries, its communications and its ad- ministrationg it will need clever men to pull it out of the depression that will inevitably be present at the end of hostilities, and it is our job to make ourselves ready and willing to imdertake to shoulder the great responsibility which will come down to us. I myself would like to enter the field of industrial chemistry. There is a great future in it-a future in which many discoveries could be made, discoveries not of a war- like nature but of a peaceful nature, which would further the advance of progress and civilization. For many years chemists have been doing their best to invent or discover powers of destruction. Before any career can be considered Hitler must be defeated. Britain must ward off the threatened invasion. She must hold off Germany and at the same time build up her ever increasing air force. She must have tanks and guns. When she considers herself strong enough to attack, she must land troops and with the help of her navy capture the so-called invasion ports and strategic posi- tions on the French coast. Then she must launch a gigantic drive to defeat Hitler and all that he stands for. Then, and then only, can any worthwhile career be con- sidered. At the conclusion of this war there are bound to be some important changes. Probably one of the most im- 48 TRFNITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD portant changes will be the abolition of class distinctions. It is hard to realize now, how the effect of the war will in- fluence our lives. Probably a career in the post-war world will be quite different than it is at presentg or I should say, was before Hitler's attack on Poland. It is necessary to suppose however, that we win this war, or there is no point to this essay. We will also sup- pose that the social conditions are not far different than those before the war. In this new world I would like to do some kind of re- search. I haven't made up my mind yet what particular kind but I would to do my bit in furthering scientific knowledge and improving man's Lmderstanding of nature. I would like to help discover things that would enable manu- facturers to turn out articles more cheaply so that which now only the rich can afford, will be available to all. I would like to help increase knowledge of disease and im- prove medical equipment and in that way help to lower the death rate. It is too bad that the millions of dollars and thousands of men now used to fight each other could not be united to fight against their common enemy disease. If nations could only find some of the money in peace time that they spend on war, and use it to benefit mankind instead of destroying him. Let us hope that a new and better world will arise out of the ashes of the old and a wiser human race. As yet I have not definitely decided exactly what my career is going to be, but it is almost a certainty that I shall enter some branch of the Grain Business. As for the training, I should like to attend the Boston School of Busi- ness. for several years, to learn how to run a company. I should then like to learn the business from the bot- tom up, starting as an agent somewhere in Western Can- ada. Eventually I would work up, and some day I hope to take over the company. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 49 If I ever did reach the head of the company, I would endeavour to help the farmer at the expense of the buyer and the consumer. I should like to see him plant better grades of grain, such as Thatcher, in the place of the harder Wheats, such as Garnet, which is all that he can aiford to plant now. I believe that if he became more prosperous, then the whole of Canada would become more prosperous, as Canada's main business is wheat. I would recommend to him all Ways of soil conserva- tion, by combating erosion. I would suggest that he, for instance, plant trees along all of his roads, as this would hold the soil to the ground and also it would trap a lot of all-important moisture, thus preventing it from evapor- ating. The leaves also would rot and act as a fertiliser. The main hitch in this plan is the amount of time and labour that would be required to fulfil such a project. I might say that this plan has been tested in the West and found to be very successful. I should also like to perfect a special wheat with a shorter growing period than Thatcher, so as to assure the harvest before the frost. I am now working on this Wheat at home, and some day I hope to perfect it, using it as seed for one year to test it for Rust Resistance. Smut, Frost, Black Worm and other such blights. If my work ever does come to anything, land I doubt very much that it Willj I would sell this Wheat to the farmer, so that he would be assured of obtaining a crop. I would in all Ways possible try to help the farmer, who really needs a great deal of help at times. I should also like to settle down and have a family of two boys, Cwhom of course I would send to T.C.S.J. One of my main objectives in my life is to be able to support my parents as soon as I possibly can, so that my father can retire, and live comfortably with mother for the rest of their lives. If all goes Well, I should like to do this when I am about the age of forty, so that I can start early 50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and try to pay them back part of the tremendous debt of gratitude that I owe them. I have outlined the main objectives in my life, and I will try to fulfil all of them to the best of my ability, so that I will leave the world, as a whole, in better, rather than worse condition, than when I entered it. When we leave school, we have not left school forever, but have merely passed on to a higher institution of learn- ing. If in this second stage we grow too big for our first humble position, as all first positions are, and try to assume a higher standing than we are ready for, we may find that in this higher school those kind of people are thrown out altogether. In this school we have to learn new things, and there are some people who will go out of their way to show one how to put themselves in the way of obtaining the neces- sary skill and knowledge that they will require. But on the other hand, there are those who are not so considerate, and it is when one comes into contact with this kind of people that one must learn the value of self-reliance. Any- one of importance in an institution is quick to discern the person who has learned to stand on his own feet, and marks him for promotion. Another asset which it is good to have under control is the ability to make a decision. Many are the times in life when a man is called upon to say yes or no to an important question put to him. One must learn to make the right decision at the right time, and it is a rare and valuable gift. Everyone meets people who have had some remark- able experience or other and yet are quite unable to give any impression of their unique adventure. This mental inertia is perhaps a necessary form of self-defence, in order to survive their trials. One may be a hero, but there are two types of heroes: one who is intelligent and runs the risk knowing full well the dangers he undergoes, and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51 the other, whose dogged courage carries him blindly on. Both have their value in time of turmoil and war, but the first is more natural to youth. It is better for a young boy to cultivate the mental qualities of the seeker, to be con- scious of the world around him, even inquisitive, not too much so, ithat is nosey J but making an effort not to be indifferent to what is happening. The cultivation of a vivid imagination should be sought after. Although figments of the fancy are suppressed in childhood, in later life it is the surest safeguard against the depression and inertia which soon overtakes a person who allows himself to be overcome by the tedium of the humble tasks that fall to the raw recruit. Another great and desirable gift is that of patience. To know how long to wait, often very long, and when to risk everything by using his trump cards, marks a man as almost a genius. If things seem to be moving slowly, if you think yourself ready for the promotion so long looked and prepared for, prepare for the next step after that. He who can see into and is prepared for the future has a better chance of gaining the far-off goal than another person who never thinks of there being a position higher up. But this does not mean to slack on the present job and dream what you will do when you get up where Mr. Smith is, the chances are many to few that you will go in the opposite direction if you do not pull up the proverbial socks imme- diately. If, in my future career, I can employ these faculties -not being too big for my shoes, self-reliance, the ability to make a decision at a moment's noticeg to be able to de- scribe events clearly and vividly, that is to have a good imagination and memoryg and that great asset of being patient, if in my future days I use these to good advantage I think my life will have been justified. . 52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD The most valuable thing that God has given to me is the right to life: in return for this, the least I can do is justify this life, a thing, which in these perilous times everyone or at least every youth should consider. To justify my life, I must prepare myself for the tasks ahead. My parents are doing their part by sending me to a good school, where I will learn to lead a healthful life in mind, body and soul. I will be taught to discipline myself and to enjoy life within the bounds of moderation. Finally at school, I hope to obtain, with perservance and hard work, a good education. If and when I achieve this goal, I will join, shortly after leaving school, the air force, not necessarily to justify my life, but to do my bit for Canada and the British Empire. In this effort, I will be prepared to lay my life down for my country's cause. By doing this I will to some extent justify my life. If, which we will do, we win the war and I am one of the fortunate to return, the best thing I can do to justify my life, is to help the community in which I live. To do this I must first get a good start in business, which for me should not be very hard since a good business is to some extent already waiting my arrival. The next step, I think, in helping one's community is raising a family so there will be some to carry it on after we are gone. In raising this family, I would like to pre- pare it for the tasks and hardships of life ahead even better than I myself was prepared, not that I don't think I am being well prepared. Then there are thousands of ways, after one has done this much, to justify one's life since it is the little things, some say, that count. Now comes to mind a saying of the Bibleg It is better to give than to receive . After the war there will be a tremendous unemployment problem for every community in the country to consider and to con- sider very diligently. One of the very very small ways I could help this way, would be giving all I can to charitable TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53 organizations in my community. Another way would be to try and provide work for those unemployed. You could see your M.P. about that. These are very small ways in which one could help others but if you call to mind St. Valentine, did not he gain his renowned fame by helping others in a small way or rather with the little things? But if I can do my bit for Canada in the present and comparatively close futureg if I can lead an honest, up- right. and spiritual life, using as my champion Jesus Christ: and if I can raise a family to take their place as honest, upright, law-abiding citizens in their community, willing and prepared to take on the tasks that we have left for them to do, and there will be manyg Chaven't there always been '?l I will die feeling to some extent at least, that I have justified my life. When I first heard that I had to write this essay I was rather alarmed as to what I was going to writeg but now that I have played around with the idea in my mind a bit, I have come to some definite conclusions concerning my future career. In thinking about my future I must first point out something of my past. All during my life so far I have been sheltered and looked after by two of the most won- derful parents a boy could ask for. Among other things, they have given me the best education I could possibly get anywhere in the world and they intend to go on giving me this expensive education until I graduate from college. This education will give me the key that will take me across the threshhold from youth into manhood. The generation of boys reaching maturity during the next ten or fifteen years is going to find life a lot different from the lives experienced by young men of the past twenty-five years. When the total war, through which we are going now, is over, the world is going to be left in 54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD shambles and comparative poverty. The countries who are fighting this total war are going to be almost complete- ly exhausted when a truce comes, and they will have to start to build themselves all over again, not only materially but politically. We will find that an entirely new phase of living has come about when the war is over. Among other changes there will be social equality that is to say there will be less class distinction which in our present system of running things often holds a brilliant chap back while a wealthy, less brilliant chap is given the better opportunities. Ever since I can remember I have wanted to be a lawyer and as I grow older the ambition to go to the bar has become stronger and stronger with one. In the new system of social equality there will be plenty of opportun- ity for men in any profession who are willing to work. However at my age it is probable that I will enter some branch of the service within the next two years and con- sequently I must forsake the idea of completing my college education immediately. If I come back from the war I will then be able to finish my education. Right now I think every man's job is to do his bit in winning this war for democracy so that he will leave a peaceful world for the survivors of the war to live in. If we don't win the war we will be turned into parts of an immense political machine and if we win the war there will be opportunity for every man to work unhindered by fear of the crushing hand of Dictatorship. As I have grown older I have been impressed and surprised by the lack of one thing in too many peoples' lives-happiness. These people seem to have many things to be thankful for but they don't seem to be happy any- way. In my life I am always going to try to bring happiness to myself and to those around me. Even if this were the only thing I were to do during my life I would be quite content. I think the church should play a most important part in any man's life but I know many boys and young TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55 men who pay little or no attention to religion. Somehow youth in his smart-alec way thinks religion shows a sign of weakness. I know I could not get along without the church: for sometimes when I am feeling particularly low and everything seems to be breaking the wrong way I go into the chapel for the fifteen minute service which we have every day. When I come out I feel like a new person: I feel as if I have been refuelled and Iam able to continue with a lighter step. In summing up I would like to say that although I hope my career is a successful one I hope that I bring no unhappiness in attaining my goals. With the word of Christ to guide me and a free country to work in I don't see how I or anyone else could fail. I hope that when I am dead people who knew me will remember me kindly and say, He lived a good life . 56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD RELIGION AS I SEE IT Some comments by members of the Sixth Form A church is one of the few places in the world to- day in which I feel really secure. A peaceful atmosphere can always be found there, and it is the one place to which I can go to get away from all the rush and bustle of the busy world of today. Its whole being radiates peace, and if more people would pay some attention to religion there would be less warlike activity in the world today. Sometimes if things ,go wrong, or if I am worried about anything, it does me good to be able to tell some- body else about my troubles. Somebody from whom I can get advice is the obvious person to talk to, and I find this person is God. If you tell him your troubles, very often you will see in a flash the way out of the difficulty. To priests, from time immemorial, people have come for help. Nowadays the church is doing great social ser- vices in the way of helping the poor and the downtrodden. There could never be any other organization in the world which would be able to do this in such a widespread fashion as the church does it. Lastly, but principally, I like religion because it gives an example to live up to. Jesus Christ was and is the personification of goodness. Everyone in their heart wants to be as good as he can, and if there had been no Jesus, there would be no example to follow. Attendance in church should never be compulsory. Everyone should go to church when the need for spiritual enlightenment is felt. No one can get a great deal from a church service if he is made to go against his will. On the other hand, many people go to church because their friends go. This too is a bad attitude, and nothing can be drawn from a service when you are examining Mrs Smith's new fur coat. In a great many churches the services are very dull. They should be livened up a little. The sermons could be made more interesting, long prayers could be avoided and TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57 in many services there could be more singing, to great advantage. Religion in church should be taken seriously but not morbidly. One is supposed to feel spiritually better after a church service, and I find that this is so after the services here ir1 chapelg however in many other places of worship the whole atmosphere is one of depression. Our religion can be compared with that of Confucius in that, fundamentally, they both deal with the after life. The reason that our present religion is what it is, is that it suits our personalities better, this I think is the same the world over. The religion is suited to the type of people. Worship comes naturally and instinctively to man and it is an essential part of his make-up. In my opinion organization is necessary in religion to prevent men from drifting away from God. If there were no church, religion would slip from the minds of men, God would be forgotten. We would however naturally seek something else to wor- ship, and what would it be? Quite probably wealth or power. Admittedly organized religion is liable to lead to dog- matism and even suspicion. This is perhaps more the case in my church than in the other Christian sects as it is more closely organized than most. The danger of pre- judice and suspicion growing up is very real. It has happen- ed before, and although it is fading out, it may rise again. The material works of organized religious bodies are very important. Charity and relief of suffering among the poor are carried out to a large extent by, and through the church. A great spiritual revival is going on in the world, particularly in England. This illustrates that man depends upon a power which is intangible and at the same time very real, and that he can seek and find strength and com- fort in God. To find this he goes to a church which has been set up by an organized religious sect. 58 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD To survive, I think we must hold on to our trust in God and to hold on to it we must have organization. Regular services and the sacraments will keep us always in mind of God. We must always be reminded, or we will forget. One of the main things I like about religion is the Bible, the Bible is full of stories into which, at one time or another, you may be able to place yourself as the main character, and in this way we are able to get the very best advice there is to be had in the world. I think the other most valuable thing in religion is Prayer , In prayer we can get new faith and hope with which to carry on our daily life. I think that every man, woman, and child, must have some sort of religion. I do not mind what his religion may be but it is always there for him, to turn to in a time of troubleg I believe that if everyone took more interest in whatever religion they follow, there would be a lot less trouble in the world. There are some churches which make the services too informal, and then again there are those who make it much too formalg I think the Anglican Church hits the happy medium, the prayers and hymns and psalms are all written in simple but lovely English, the services are not written in Latin or written by the minister taking the ser- vice Everybody definitely needs to have a belief in some being mightier than himself. That is only natural and has been so ever since earliest man, but to have that be- lief forced on him, even to the slightest degree, so that it becomes automatic and begins to lose its meaning, that is the biggest mistake that could be made. There comes a time when everyone feels an urge to open his heart to someone. However sometimes we are thinking things that we cannot or dare not tell to anyone human, that is TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 59 the time when we need God, and that is the time when He is most ready to hear us. I feel sure that He gets no more out of the half-hearted prayers that come from a great majority of us, than we get out of saying them. Religion is something that should either be sponta- neous or not at all. In the earliest years of the church it was completely so, but then as years passed, more and more regulations and red-tape were tied up with it, until now, although we have a very beautiful service it has very little meaning to most of us, simply because nobody has anything to do except recite a few formulae and sing a few hymns. I think that if we had less recitations to listen to, and less recitations to recite, and more quiet for solemn prayer. people would get much more out of a church ser- vice. There is nothing in this world more awe-inspiring and thrilling than the two minutes dead silence on Armistice Day, in these brief moments, probably more soul-sent prayers reach heaven, than in all the other three hundred and sixty-four days of the year. It is my own belief that the greatest thing that could happen to the world is for it to have a completely organized religion. I believe that I am correct in saying that Christ- ianity is the greatest religion in the world at present-at least the great majority of the world's wealth and power is in Christian hands. I believe that the solution to the world's problems is to convert the heathen to Christianity, and to re-convert those professed Christians who have wandered slightly astray. A Christian world, cherishing the same ideas that Christ cherished, would be a peaceful world and a very prosperous and happy one. This process of converting the world to Christianity must take a definite course, sooner or later. The first important step, and perhaps the most difficult, is to over- come the petty misbeliefs and prejudices prevailing throughout the Church of Christ today. In other words, 50 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD denominations must be unified, if there is to be any religion that is organized on any appreciable scale. It is quite natural for individuals to have slightly different viewpoints and opinions, but this is no excuse for a separation from the church. People have failed to be broad minded. Ad- mittedly new rules and regulations creep in to deteriorate any organization, but these must be kept out. The best way to do this is not to have too many. If people do not like going to theatres on Sunday, then those people themselves should not go. There is no reason why they should take steps to prevent all Christians to go, even those who see no harm in it. If the church is free enough from rules and regulations to let the individual draw up his own rules and standards, then there would be room for individuality in the church without letting petty rules and binding regulations creep in. The clergy would be much as they are now, with modifications. It should be a clergyman's job to advise his parishioners in matter of religion. When I say advise, I do not mean persuade, but to give the parishioners a broadminded view of all sides of the question, letting the advisee draw his own conclusions. Another of the priest's duties would be to encourage reflection, meditation, and silent prayer. Any parson today can teach a person the paths which meditation should or could take. The three above mentioned practices, I believe, should constitute a very great portion of a man's religious life. From these he can discover his own code of honour, and ask sincerely for anything feasible from God. A great supplement to these is the reading of the Bible. There one can find plenty of material to start meditating, reflecting and silent praying. Organized religion should be one in which the clergy not only conduct such services as Holy Communion, Bap- tism, Confirmation, Matrimony and Burial, but also advise and teach people to be essentially Christians, not Anglicans, Presbyterians, Baptists, Christian Scientists or what have you. The main attraction that Islam has to me is its TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 61 simplicity. I am not very well informed about con- temporary Mohammedanism, but when it started, there Was a simple creed and a basic goodness behind it. In its simplicity, it was well suited for the individual. So also was early Christianity. But the church today is not organized. Take for example this school. It is pretty well organized. But suppose that it were not. Then the school would be like Christianity. There would be two hundred or so little boys, in themselves fairly well organized, as far as the individual is concerned. But the essentials of discipline would be entirely absent. So it is in Christianity today. In this school as it is today, there is organization--good organiza- tion. Every individual is allowed enough liberty to make him happy, but there are one or two very sensible rules, essential to the maintenance of this organization. So let it be with Christianity. In this School there is an advisor- advisee system. So let it be in Christianity. In a word, let Christianity be organized in itself, not in its particles, and devote its energy to the conversion of the rest of the World. In the Gospel according to St. Mark 13:10 it says, concerning Christ's second coming, And the gospel must Hrst be published among all nations. Perhaps two thousand years is long enough to wait for this great event. What harm would it do to have a Christian World? Perhaps I have misinterpreted the prophecy. Who knows? As I see it religion is the most important factor in man's existence in the present day. In fact I can truth- fully say that religion has played the most important part in man's life from the very beginning right up to now and will no doubt continue to do so in the future. Without religion of some sort man's existence would be something similar to that of animals. He would simply be a living creature with no moral or intellectual standards. 62 TRINITY COLLEGE scHooL RECORD Religion gives to man a feeling of respect for a. supreme being and not just a feeling that he is the most important person in the world. Even the mightiest of the mighty must acknowledge the existence of a supreme deity in whose control the events of earth lie. Ancient man had many gods to whom he accredited great supernatural powers. Today we worship only one God to whom we accredit these supernatural powers. Each of the great religions of the world i.e. Christianity, Mohammedanism, Buddhism, and Confucianism have as their basis the exist- ence of one single and supreme being. The fact that there is a supreme power to which we can turn in time of trouble gives us a feeling of safety and hope which otherwise we could not have. The church, no matter what religion it teaches, serves as a rallying point for men's spirits in times of trouble. Take for in- stance the way in which Mohammedanism inspired the Arabs to conquer all of Africa and a large portion of Europe and Asia Minor. The religions that teach a life in the world to come give to many men a feeling that life after death will be as pleasant, or more pleasant, than that which they are leading here on earth. The fact that the church is al- ways open and that a man may enter anytime to pray gives to a man, who is in trouble, a sense of security and the much needed courage to face the stern tasks which lie before him. Some of the various aspects do not appeal to me. I personally feel that religion should be as simple as possible. For instance all the various denominations of Christ- ianity should combine in such a way as to collect the best parts of each. The church services as they are practised in a great many city churches could be shortened without seriously impeding the religious thoughts which they teach. There should be more hymns sung during the services be- cause a large majority of people get a great deal of com- fort out of singing them.

Batting first, the School were all out for 87 runs. The two bright spots in the T.C.S. batting were Scott, with 29, and Clarke, with 24. Largely because of the brilliant bowl- ing of Loney, the School's Wickets fell fairly quickly, and the team were faced with the difficult task of getting out the Club for less than 86. The first 5 Toronto Cricket Club wickets fell for only 22 runs, but Dobson and Rea made a great stand and when stumps were drawn they were still not out. The final score was T.C.S. 87, Toronto C.

MANNING DEPOT At Port Hope, May 24th. Showing their best batting form of the season, the School hit up 141 runs in an hour and a half to score a victory over the R.C.A.F. The game began about noon. The Air Force team stayed in all morning and they declared at tea-time with 132 for 7 Wickets. After tea, at four-thirty, the School opening batsmen, Caldwell and Lambert gave a brilliant exhibition of batting 68 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD and they scored 60 runs before Caldwell was finally run out. Clarke was quickly out, but Jones proved in scoring form and the runs came steadily. When LeMesurier join- ed Jones the rate dropped for a while, and there were anxious glances at watches every over. The batsmen suc- ceeded, however, in getting back to the fast scoring pace and when the last over came only four runs were needed. LeMesurier was run out, but a moment later Archie Jones promptly secured the winning hit and the batsmen added half a dozen more on the last three balls, just to make sure. R.C.A.F.

ANDREWS ooLLEGE At Port Hope, May sist. The School and S.A.C. opened the Little Big Four cricket season this year on Saturday, May 31st, S.A.C. arrived in the morning and the game began at eleven o'clock. The St. Andrew's captain won the toss and elected to bat Hrst. By lunch time S.A.C. had 74 runs for 2 wickets. The game was resumed at one fifteen and by two forty-iive the School had disposed of the last of the St. A.ndrew's batsmen. Chipman and Thiele made a fine stand and Chipman was not dismissed until he had 55 runs to his credit. The first two batsmen for the School, Lambert and Caldwell were very successful, and although the score did not mount very quickly they gave the S.A.C. bowlers a severe headache. Caldwell stayed in for the best part of an hour and a half. He was finally bowled but not until he had scored 31 runs. T.C.S. outstanding batsman 70 TRINITY coLLEGE soHooL RECORD was undoubtedly Jones max. who made the fine score of 43. When stumps were drawn at six-fifteen the School had made the remarkable total of 169 for 4 Wickets. This gave them a clear-cut victory over the S.A.C. team, who were all out for 130. S.A.C.

At U.C.C., June 4th, Trinity Won the toss and put Upper Canada in to bat. The School team was not particularly good and the field- ing was especially Weak. U.C.C. hit up 150 runs before Trinity got them out, just before llmch. Trinity began very well, with Caldwell getting 53 before he was caught in the slips after tea. 1 Somerville and LeMesurier also batted well, but our batting was not quite strong enough to make the grade. We compiled 141 runs to lose the game by the very narrow margin of only nine runs. U.C.C. Inning D. F. C. Ross ........... ....................... b .

SCHOOL vs. RIDLEY At Armour Heights, June 7th. The School team went to Toronto on Saturday, June 7 th., to play their last Little Big Four match of the season, against last year's champions-Ridley Collegeg and they proved themselves to be the only Little Big Four team to meet Ridley successfully this year. On the School's team there were only three really successful batsmen. These were Lambert, LeMesurier and Clarke who scored 85 of the School's 115 runs between TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 73 them. Likewise for Ridley only two men reached the double Hgures. The School batted first and despite five ducks man- aged to score 115 runs. The outstanding batsman was LeMesurier, who got 50, while Lambert and Clarke sup- ported him with 20 and 15 respectively. Drope and McCrea were the only Ridley batsmen to make a stand. McCrea made 31 not out and Drope scored 39 before Duggan ma. dismissed him with a brilliant catch. The remainder of the team could only make 21 between them and Ridley's total was 91. T.C.S.

The Old Boys' game, always an interesting perform- ance, was this year no exception. Although no exceptional batting was shown by the Old Boys, Mr. Ketchum was a steady batsman and he collected 8 runs, not out. Bruce Russel had 10 to his credit when Scott bowled him. The Old Boys' total was 83. Caldwell and Clarke made an excellent start for the School and 50 runs were accounted for before the first wicket fell, and by the time stumps were drawn the School had 88 for 5. LeMesurier was still in with 16. Jim Kerr took 4 for the School's 5 wickets for 17 runs. . 1l: TRINITY COLLEGE SCI-IOOL RECORD '75 Bigside House Game This game was played about the middle of the term, on May 21st, and it saw Bethune House carry away the much coveted Bigside House Cup for cricket. There were very few high scores on either team. As a matter of fact the onlyman on either team to reach the double Hgures was Scott of Bethune with 13. Lambert of Bethune took 6 wickets for 13 runs while Duggan maj. of Brent took 5 for 25 and Parr took 2 for 1. The game, on the whole, was quite short as cricket games go, and it ended with Bethune House on top by a score of 57-37. SECOND TEAM SCHOOL vs. WHITAKER. C. C. At Peterborough, May 17th. Despite Mr. Wilson's sparkling 44, the remainder of the team could only make 33 runs, and the Seconds bowed to Peterborough, 111-77. Dyer was outstanding for the Whitaker C. C., getting 44 runs and taking 6 out of the School's wickets. Mr. Wilson was the only bright spot on the T.C.S. batting list. The next highest score was made by Culver, with 9. soHooL vs. KAPPA ALPHA at Pon Hope, Dlay zmh. As this game did not begin until 3.30 it was, of necessity. a short one, and the result was a draw. The School batted first and retired at five o'clock with 109 runs for 7 wickets. Goering and Greene, the retiring batsmen, made 23 and 15 respectively. The first few Kappa Alpha wickets were disposed of fairly quickly but when stumps were drawn they had hit up 62 runs for 6 wickets. Of the 62 Porter got 20. 76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD MIDDLESIDE SCHOOL vs. THE GROVE At Port Hope, May 14th. This was the Midd1eside's first game of the season, and they made an excellent showing, beating Lakefield 112-89. T.C.S. batted first and after tea, in a race against time, managed to get the last Lakelield man out a scant few minutes before stumps were to be drawn. Tate, Waters and Paterson max. were the high scorers for the School with 22, 18 and 17 respectively, while Harris and Dobbin stood out for Lakefield with 19 and 18. For T.C.S. Suther- land took 2 wickets for 3 runs and Hare max. 5 for 14. Hague of Lakeiield took 3 for 6. SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Toronto, May 17th. Upper Canada showed themselves to be superior in this game, winning by 66-37. After U.C.C. had batted, T.C.S. started their innings badly, at one time having no runs for 3 wickets. When they finally did warm up, it still proved too great a task to reach the U.C.C. total. Pater- son got T.C.S.'s best score, with 17. Hare max. took 6 wickets for 18 runs. For U.C.C. Little got 16 and Whitely took 4 for 16. SCHOOL vs. THE GROVE At Lakeiield, May 21st. The School lost this game by the rather one-sided score of 89-45. For Lakefield Hague made a long stand, getting 22, which Carr-Harris later surpassed with a fine innings of 25. When T.C.S. came to bat the wickets fell quickly and regu- larly and they could not match the Lakeiield score. T.C.S. high scorer was Tate, who hit 18 in a very short time. Roy was Lakefield's best bowler. He took 4 wickets for only 3 runs. Hare of T.C.S. took 3 for 14. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77 SCHOOL vs. U.C.C. At Port Hope, May 27th. In this game neither team showed any batting strength and as a result the scores were very small. U.C.C. batted iirst and were all out for 26. Faced with this small score the School batsmen almost failed, but managed to outscore Upper Canada with a meagre 31. There was still some time left, and a second innings was played. This time the School did better in both fielding and batting. The visitors were all out for 15 rtms while the School hit up 43 for 8 wickets before stumps were drawn. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. 2nd. XI. At Port Hope, June 4th. Just when Middleside thought their cricket season was over, word came that two games had been arranged with St. Andrew's College. Mr Morris' charges welcomed the games and S.A.C. came down to play the first one on June 4th. The St. Andrew's team batted first and their wickets fell in rapid succession--all except Hamilton who made a fine effort with 33 not out. The School then batted and although their wickets Went down quite quickly, Paterson max. and Huycke play- ed very well getting 46 between them, including one mighty 6 from Huycke. When time was up T.C.S. had 71 for 7 against S.A.C.'s 69. SCHOOL vs. S.A.C. At Aurora., June 7th, In the return game with St. Andrew's, the School was again victorious. T.C.S. put the S.A.C. boys out for 33 runs, of which Ramsey got 11. Hare max. bowled extremely well for the School. He took 7 wickets for only 12 runs. 78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD Stumps were drawn shortly after 5 o'clock, by which time T.C.S. had 52 runs for 9 wickets. McLeod was S.A.C.'s best bowler with 2 wickets for 7. Middleside House Game, June 6th. The Middleside House teams were very evenly match- ed this year and the outcome of the game was very much in doubt for some time. However, Bethune House man- aged to come out on the long end of an 87-61 score. Waters was outstanding in batting for Bethune. Moy- sey caught him after he had 22 runs. Healey, an import from Littleside, was high scorer for Brent with 23. There were very few other high scorers, Olds of Brent hit up 12 and Paterson max. scored 13 for Bethune. LITTLESIDE Littleside won their first game at Lakefield on May 14, by a fairly substantial score-123 Cfor 9 wickets! to 51. Barnett and Mackie were the School's best batsmen, with 31 and 30. Christie got 12 not out for Lakefield. Littleside were again successful in their second game, played against Wedd's House at U.C.C. on May 17th. They batted first and hit up 84 runs, Barnett getting 29. U.C.C. only managed to get 29. Dewar bowled very well for the School, taking 5 wickets for 10 runs. In the return game with Lakefield, the School was not so successful, losing a very close game 95-93. Onorato made 30 runs for Lakefield, while Crum scored 20 and took 4 wickets for 20 for T.C.S. The weather almost forced the second U.C.C. game to be postponed. The rain, however, abated con- siderably and play was possible on a rather wet Wicket. The School batted first and retired with 4 wickets down for 89 runs, Symons with 30 not out being the high scorer. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD T9 U.C.C. then batted and could only knock up 44. The School's best bowlers were Crum, Symons, and Dewar. Ridley fielded a team which proved to be too strong for the School and scored an easy victory. Heaton and Symons made nice scores for the School, Symons getting 16 and Heaton 23. However the Ridley batsmen were superior and they knocked up 114 runs for only 4 wickets with Parry Evans hitting up 31. The School's score was 65. Littleside House Game, June '7th. Bethune House, with the majority of the Littleside squad on their team, completely overwhelmed the Brent representatives. With Britton taking 4 wickets for 6 runs, Bethune put Brent away with 59 runs to their credit. In reply. when Bethune came to bat, the first two men, Heaton and Britton, scored 61 runs between them. They then retired and Barnett and Crum scored 27 more before stumps were drawn. I 80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD f3ODT8'D!Q5f3 Sports Day this year was on May 22nd. The weather was fine and three new School records were set. Brent won the inter-house contest, beating Bethune by 15 points. There was an innovation in this year's Sports Day, in the form of bicycle races-fast and slow. These, especially the slow race, proved interesting and amusing.

CLUB A new and enjoyable fixture for the Squash team this spring was the match arranged at the Toronto Badminton and Racquets Club between teams representing T.C.S., Ridley and the Club. The players were arranged in order of strength, and each played his opposite numbers of the two opposing teams. LeMesurier, Hayes, Clarke, Culver and Duggan max constituted the T.C.S. team. These won all but two of their games, defeating each of the other teams 4 to 1. All played very well, attracting many favourable comments from expert observers. Special thanks are due to Mr. Scandrett, who arranged the match, and Mr. Traviss. Both these gentlemen did a 82 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD great deal to make the afternoon a most agreeable and in- teresting one for the T.C.S. representatives. It was the first time that squash had provided a con- test With our old rivals in so many sports, Ridley, but we are sure that Ridley join us in hoping that it will be only the first of a long series. THE OPEN TENNIS TOURNAMENT The Open Tournament was held this year during the last few weeks of term. In the finals LeMesurier beat Love in a match that see-sawed back and forth, first one gaining the advantage and then the other. As a matter of fact Love had set-point during the second set. The following was the draw:- First Round--Caldwell beat Elliot, German beat Hig- gins, Love beat Thompson, Hayes beat Culver Cdefaultedl 5 Macdonald beat Fleming, Mackintosh beat Huestis, Tate beat Boggs, LeMesurier beat Jones max.

The finals were held on Thursday, Jtme 12th. The day was blustery, but a strong wind did not impair the high quality of tennis which was seen. LeMesurier won the first set 6-4 but was forced to come from behind in the second to take a close 7-5 decision. JUNIOR TOURNAMENT The Junior play was every bit as interesting and excit- ing as that of the Senior. As in the Senior the pre- liminaries and final were played during the last two weeks of the term. In this Macdonald proved too strong for Barnett and won 6-4, 6-2. TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 83 The following was the draw:- First Round-Boggs beat Davidson, Paterson ma. beat Morgan. Second Round-Macdonald beat Boggs, Jellett beat Heaton, Healey beat Turcot, Barnett beat Paterson ma. Semi-Final-Macdonald beat Jellett, Barnett beat Healey. Final-Macdonald beat Barnett 6-4, 6-2. SWIMMING Considerable interest has been shown in swimming this term, about a dozen boys turning out. A team represented the School against Trenton R.C. A.F. on May 23rd, and it proved to be quite a success. The Trenton team edged out the School 24-22 in points. Two tank records were broken by the well-known Flying Officer Tommy Walker, one of Canada's outstanding swimmers. He cut nearly 3 seconds off the breast stroke, formerly held by E. C. 'Cayley and also broke the back stroke record. Following are the results: 40 yards Free-1, Waters, T.C.S., 2, Goering, T.C.S., 3, P.O. Norwood, Trenton. Time 22.6 secs. 40 yards Breast Stroke - 1, F.

H865 Hom Old Boys more than ever before are writing in telling about their doings and other Old Boys that they have ran across. From what we hear, especially from Old Boys on active service, this is appreciated and helps to make the Record interesting. It is certain that they are many Old Boys, however, who have Old Boys' news of general interest that they are withholding, probably inadvertently, and these Old Boys are urged to write in to the Secretary of the Old Boys' Association. The O.B.A. has no reporting staff and is wholly dependent, for its Old Boys' news, on what is sent in, or noticed by chance in the newspapers that come to Port Hope. Send along newspaper clippings, or simply a note, say- ing yon have recently seen so-and-so, and tell as what he is doing. Letters from Old Boys on active service overseas are of special interest. The Record at present has a circulation of approxi- mately 600 among Old Boys alone. Let ns hear from you.

Although We didn't succeed in bringing any planes down, we have dam- aged a number of them and frightened others away from the convoy. We had some sort of action nearly every time we went to sea. If it wasn't aircraft or mines it was shelling from the French coast. We were also based in one of the towns on the South Coast that has had quite a large number of blitzes, so I know what it is like to fall on my face on hearing the whistle of a bomb on its down- ward path, and have certainly had my fill of fighting fire bombs. Altogether it has been quite an exciting time. Recently I took a course in anti-submarine work and have been appointed to an A-S trawler as first lieutenant. The ship is, in fact, new and won't be ready for sea for another two or three weeks yet. We will be doing some convoy work and anti-submarine patrol so we will soon be joining in the great Battle of the Atlantic . I might say that I am greatly looking forward to this new venture. You might publish in your next issue of the Record that I would be more than pleased to get in touch with any of the Old Boys over here if they would care to drop me a line to c-o General Post Ofiice, London.

Mrs. Lewis reported on the annual meeting of the Port Hope Branch, at which the President, Mrs. Wotherspoon, presided. It was decided that the branch would not spend more than necessary at present but keep in readiness to help the School in any emergency which might arise out of abnormal war conditions. The drive-way in front of the hospital is in need of repair and the branch felt they could help with this to the extent of 333000. Mrs. Osler reported on the work of the past year. Thanks to the generosity of the members, two bursaries of 3200.00 each were given to the School, and the usual grant made to the Library. The lettering in the hall was looked after. A Dominion of Canada bond for 3400.00 was pur- chased with the fees of the Life Members. Our 2nd Vice-President, Mrs. Dudley Dawson, repre- sented the Guild at the Memorial Service on Trinity Sun- day and placed a wreath on the Wayside Cross. In writing the customary letters to the mothers, the Committee had instructed Mrs. Osler to offer honorary membership in the Guild to the mothers of the English boys. Several letters of appreciation were received in answer. On account of sudden illness, our Treasurer, Mrs. Nor- man B. Taylor, found it necessary to resign after two years of faithful service. On nomination of the Committee, Mrs. T. Wilbur Best was appointed in her place. The follow- ing members of the Committee retire this year: Mrs. Bruce 1Q2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD McKinnon, Mrs. Wilbur Best, Mrs. F. L. Tate, and Mrs. Keith Russell, and Mrs. Meredith Huycke has resigned. The present officers were re-elected. Mrs. Hugh Hea- ton, Mrs. Keilfer, Mrs. George Crum, Mrs. Donald Paterson and Mrs. D. M. Hogarth were elected members of the execu- tive committee. Mrs. Osler spoke of the work that Mrs. H. Paterson had done on the hospital and said that possibly we might be asked to refurnish the sun-room. This question was left to the Committee to decide, depending on the amount of donations received. Mrs. Osler then introduced the headmaster, Mr. Ket- chum, who spoke of the Work of the School this year. He was followed by Bishop Renison, who gave a most inspiring address. He felt there was little need to talk to the members of Trinity College School Ladies' Guild as they all are interested in the School. The name of the School means a great deal to an ever increasing number of people. Boys of T.C.S. in the old days lived a very spartan existence, but it was greatly loved by those who hated it. This is a great decisive moment in the history of the world. One of the great problems is how the younger generation shall be prepared to face the unknown future. At one time boys left the School with absolute confidence as there existed an absolute certainty in the destiny of the English speaking people. Now fighting against the mal- contents of many lands, boys know that they have the responsibility of guarding the things We love best. When the war is over and won, probably people from all over Europe will come and help build this country. Trinity College School may help to form a second tradition of the British Empire.
