TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17 also joined the French and Billiards Clubs and became a Sports Reporter for The Record . Peter continued to show his scholastic ability by Walking away with another Proficiency Prize in June. In Fifth Form, not only did Peter continue with his old activities, but he took on new responsibilities, and found new interests. He was the Special Assistant to the Editor-in-Chief of The Record , he joined the Choir, was a member of the Quacks, and was the Treasurer of the Senior Political Science Club. Peter's intelligence and wit stood him in good stead in debating, and he was the Prime Minister of the victorious team against U.T.S. He was a member of Bigside Cricket, and was awarded half-Bigside Colours for his part on the team. He was a cadet in the Colour Party on Inspection Day. On Speech Day, he was awarded the prize for the best contribution to The Record , and the prize for the best speech given in the Senior Political Science Club, both extremely fine achievements for a Fifth Former. Peter, in Sixth Form, was the Manager of Bigside Football, and again was awarded half-colours in Bigside Cricket. He was the Presi- dent of the Senior Political Science Club and led a successful debating team for the second year in a row against U.T.S. He was a Brent House Prefect, and was elected President of VIA. He was one of the greatest of the philosophers of the school and was the originator of the mammoth inquiry into the teenager in society which was highlighted by a Forum in The Record in the Centennial Section, of which Pete was Editor. Pete naturally triumphed on Speech Day, winning the Rigby History Prize, the George Leycester Ingles Prize, and the Special Choir Award. Peter's intelligence, keen sense of humour and warm personality are bound to take him a long way and win him many friends in the future. W. A. Hafner C61-'66J Assistant Head Pre- fect Will started his T.C.S. career with a one year stand in Boulden House where he won col- ' . ours on First Team Football and was runner-up for the Grand Aggregate on Sports Day. , In the fall of 1962 he entered Bethune House as a member of the famous Top Dorm gang. Will played on Littleside Football and Cricket -N., Teams and won colours for Bigside Basketball on which he was high scorer. He also ran well on Sports Day. Keeping up his studies, Will Won a Trinity Prize at the end of his year. During his next two years Will dominated the sports scene at T.C.S. He played Bigside Football, winning full colours in his Fifth Form year. He was the most valuable player on Bigside Basketball for both years and in Fifth Form he won a Distinction Cap earned in captaining the team to the L.B.F. Championship. Willieis speed put him on the Track Team and he won his class aggregate for both years. He crowned his Fifth Form year by being made a House Officer.

While on the subject of demolishing the opposition, Tim managed to do this exceedingly well on the floor as a debater. He participated in no less than three L.B.F. Debates, and as a final feather in his cap acted as Whip for the winning Senior Debating Society. His oratorical skill no doubt helped make him the people's choice as Prime Minister ton the Liberal ticketl in the mock election. Brent House was in the capable hands ot' none other than T. Embury Esq., as she proceeded to win the llouse Drill and Sports Day, putting Bethune to some shame. llis somewhat different UD literary skill combined with his wry sense ot' humour made him an excellent Features Editor for The Record . Ile even succeeded in playing an enormous t?J joke for the amusement of the whole school in the Phantom incident, contributing to his section, which was quite a collection of writing ranging from the sublime to the tpredominantl ridiculous. It is apt here to mention Tim's amazing bicycle rides and his miracu- lous golf machineg perhaps too his receding hairline - while Tim's hair- line was a constant recession his popularity and respect among others were certainly not. The school rewarded Tim by appointing him a School Prefect, an honour richly deserved. J. M. Fitzpatrick t'6-19663 Fitz arrived at T.C.S. as a Fifth Form New Boy in Brent House. He thus escaped the tortures and pains of the New Boy system, but made his mark as m a member of the referees' club tno such thing reallyl. Actually, it was on the football field as a violent and excited linesman and as a speedy linesman for hockey that the school had a chance to see Fitz in action. Anyone would agree that he made a colourful sight anywhere, whether in the dining room with his bright blue corduroy jacket, or with his striped vest and pants, whit- ened while attempting to retrieve a loose puck. Did somebody say he should have had his skates sharpened more often? Fitz had a unique character, which added a certain flavour to all classes, but particularly when he became embroiled in an argument with Mr. Lawson in English class. Ah, but weren't those colourful Ecenes! We expect Fitz to make as much of an impression anywhere e goes. I'. G. li. Grant C62-'66J Peter began his life at Trinity in the Third Form, where he im- mediately began to fit into all facets of school life. Ile joined the Stamp Club and the Glee Vlub, and was a member of the Bass Chorus of Iolanthe. Peter was also to prove a very strong cricketer, and was a member of Little- side obtaining Littleside colours in that sport. As well as this, he was a member of the Precision Squad on Inspection llay, and he won a prize for tlencral l'rot'iciency in his form, IHA. -In the Fourth Form, Pete continued his activities in the Glee Vlub and the Precision Squad, and again played Littleside Cricket.

Barnett award. the Jack Maynard Memorial Trophy and the coveted Grand Challenge Cup. . Wahoo's legend as a leader who never lost his rule and as an athlete will live for a long time. We all wish Will the best of luck at Princeton. where he is undoubtedly making the best of his many talents. P. Y. E. Harcourt C64-'66J Percy belonged to that glorious sect known as the Fifth Form New Boy. As he was always noted as a meticu- lous dresser, the waves of harsh correction of the New Boy System left him unscathed and Percy set himself at once to earning a place on Middleside Football. In the Winter Term he made Middleside Hockey and was a member in good standing of the Senior Political Science Club. Percy worked hard and consistently, and was re- warded with the Bethune Scholarship in the Fifth Form after tying for first place in the class at the end of the year. In Sixth Form, Percy began by playing Big- - side Football but also managed to get twice as many leaves as most people by acting as Sports Reporter for The Record . He was also a member of the Honour Guard for the Royal Winter Fair. In the winter term Percy was once again a member of the Senior Political Science club, successfully taught a Bronze Medallion Swimming Class and played Rabbit League Hockey. For his contribution to the school Percy was appointed a House Officer. Percy is remembered as a hard worker in scholastic fields and we sincerely wish him the best of luck in university. R. P. Heyhroek C63-'66J What was in many ways a most rewarding career at T.C.S. began for Rick in Fourth Form. Rick's appre- ciation of and respect for electronics guided him rapidly to the Science Club, where he and Mr. Coering and a few select individuals dreamed up ways to make larger and louder noises. People soon realized that Rich would be very useful as --...af a Stage Electrician during the plays at Christmas and Easter, a job which he ably carried out for two years. Between Littleside League football, Rabbit hockey, and tennis, Rick also spent his time in I-'ourth Form Debating and Public Speak- ln lfilth Form with the shackles of the New Boy System loosened, llick broadened his interests to include not only the Science Club and Stage Iili-ctrical Vrew in H1865 and All That , but also the aloof and elite French Club and the Pat Moss Club, where in both cases his quiet sense ol' humour punctuated the proceedings. Rick also played in the backficld ol' the winning Littleside League football team, and at the 1-nd of the 'X't'2ll'. was awarded the Centennial Prize for Effort and Achievement. ln Sixfh lforin, Rick graced Bethune House with one of the most
