About a month ago, I posted a summary of Carleton's 1953 season pulled from the following year's school yearbook. The 1957 Ashbury College yearbook is the source of the images below, now appearing on the BCS Old Boys Cup page.
I believe there is an error in the first name of the third row. "Tiny" Hermann's full name is Charles Bismark Hermann so the "P" was probably intended to be a "B". He is referred to as C.B. Hermann on an earlier page.
I like the mention of the Old Boys Cup in the photo. Coverage of this trophy, awarded annually for many years to the winner of competition between Ashbury and Bishop's College, is sometimes spotty so it's easy to wonder how big a deal it really was.
Back to Hermann, the image below was also from that same yearbook. It is nor clear if it was taken during a match-up against Bishop's so I didn't include it on Old Boys Cup the page but still thought it needed to be shared. If you're not familiar with Hermann, he played many years with the Rough Riders, was Carleton's first coach when the program began and, apparently, well-liked by his Ashbury players. He's a member of the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame.
