FOREWORD by the Headmaster For many years The Record was quite an unique publication in that it was issued six times a year and went to Old Boys as Well as present boys. lt gave an opportunity for practicing journalism to many boys and some distinguished writing resulted from this arrangement. Special numbers were issued. such as the Victory in Europe Number , which received widespread acceptance and much favourable comment. But the numbers grew ever larger and the cost of publication ever higher. When the T.C.S. Old Boys' Bulletin was started, and then the T.C.S. News, it was realized that this was the paper which should go to Old Boys and The Record should appeal largely to the present boys and their parents. We therefore reverted to the old plan of issuing three numbers a year. This has been a successful experiment and because of its quality The Record is finding its way into more and more T.C.S. homes, and it isi continuing to give valuable experience in writing and editing to quite a large number of boys. I personally pay tribute to Mr. A. H. Humble, who has directed the affairs of The Record now for fifteen years, the success the magazine has had is almost entirely owing to his devotion and ability. The School of 1961-1962 seems to be an exceptionally good one: may we all pull together to make this year one of the very best in our long story of nearly ninety-seven years.

The Record is published three times a year in the months of December, April, August. Printed by The Guide Publishing Co. Limited, Port Hope, Ont. EDITORIAL Every weekend an ever increasing number of Canadians are tragically killed on the nation's highways. All the communication media blare forth their version of the terrible accidents occurring every day and yet the average driver seems oblivious to these threats and every remedy for them. Another disturbing fact is that drivers under the age of twenty-five are involved in more accidents than any other age group. Even the insurance premiums are higher for young drivers because they are considered more likely to be involved in an accident. Why do so many accidents occur. why are so many young people involved, and what can be done to reduce this waste of human lives? The answers to these questions are truly important and yet the questions are generally ignored. There are four major causes of accidents - mechanical failure in the car, a lack of skill on the part of the driver, a driver's wrong attitude and his incomplete knowledge of the traffic regulations. Of these, probably the most frequent is attitude. Facts have shown that many skilful drivers have had poor accident records while less skilful drivers have had perfect records as they have been constantly alert for dangers. It is in attitude too that the teenage driver differs from his older counterpart. He shows signs of immaturity - speeding, cutting in and out,
