==Early life and education==
Pallister was born to Claude Vincent Pallister and Hortense Pollister on January 24, 1915, and he grew up in Mountain Lakes, New Jersey. Claude Vincent Pallister served as the chief legal adviser to the Reformed Church in America. and as the first mayor of Shoreham, New York. He also served as a commodore of the Port Jefferson Yacht Club in Port Jefferson, New York on Long Island.
In 1934, Pallister graduated from the Morristown School (now Morristown-Beard School) in Morristown, New Jersey. He then earned his bachelor's degree at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. After graduating, Pallister attended New York Law School in Manhattan. In 1992, Morristown-Beard School elected Pallister to the school's Athletic Hall of Fame.
During high school, Pallister played forward on Morristown School's ice hockey team. (His brother, Claude V. Jr., also played on the team.) Pallister served as team captain in his senior year. He led the hockey team on an overseas trip to play hockey clubs from Germany, Switzerland, and France between December 1933 and January 1934. The rarity of this sports trip for the time led to extensive coverage in ''The New York Times''〔〔 and ''The Literary Digest''; the United Press International story carried a headline of "Hockey Team Invades Europe".〔 The team also received a personal telegram from President Franklin D. Roosevelt wishing them luck: "The President sends them (players ) his best wishes for their success in this new field of competition, and wishes them to know of his conviction that they will live up to the best traditions of American sportsman."
