- .. ,l,v-gmail Nil 'iii IVAN ALAN HIRSCH 1946-'49 YALIH In Ivy's three years at The Gunnery he has achieved high honors in a variety of enterprises. He entered each new held with not only whole-hearted vitality but capability. Ivy's hrst year at The Gunnery saw him elected to the Student Councilg it was a status which he was only to relinquish for the ofhce of Prefecr in his Senior year. Throughout he held steadfastly to duty, which was rewarded by unstinted popularity and respect. As an honor student he was surpassed by but a fewg his high scholastic standing was unimpaired by the multitude of extra-curricular activities that occupied his every waking moments. In his hrst year Ivy began to write for The Gun- nery Newsug in his second year he became associate editor. His rise was as steady as it was completeg in his Senior year Ivan became editor-in-chief. Once seated in the editors chair he proceeded to put out one of the finest papers the school had seen in years. It was characteristic that he should devote himself so completely to his jobg responsibility vested in Ivan Hirsch was never placed in vain. Taken for all in all, Ivy was easily one of the most outstanding members of a class that may be conservatively termed unusual. HITRISITRT CQIINTON HIiSS. FIR. 1946-'-19 XWILLIAMS Herbies trenchant wit made a welcome addition to any bull session. Possessing an indescribable talent to magnify certain characteristics of his senior fellows. he immortalized dullards, individualists and social misiits and gave their per- sonages color which otherwise they would sadly lack. Hess-Ho was brilliant at this. his chief interest and pleasure. Herbies quick and ready wit is representative of a like intelligence with which he obtained consistant honors in English. A three year man and one of the few remaining refugees from Bartlett, he played on the IV. baseball team, IV. football, and the third basketball team. Herbie was severely injured last spring while playing baseball and this forced him to dis- continue prep school athletics. This year Herb was appointed varsity soccer manager. Hess'Ho played a polished if cautious right field on the very successful senior loafing team. In the all important third phase of Gunnery life, namely extra- curricular activities. Herbie. for the past two years has been a shining light on The Gunnery News editorial board. This year Herbie also served on The Red and Gray staff. Herbs plans include Wfilliams and later journalism or finance. lasik' wp .

a5-30' FRANKLIN BERNARD MATTHIIZS 19-16-'49 Noitiukov AIERONAUTICAL ScHoo1. A refugee from the Bartlett conflagration, Pete has com- pleted three prosperous years at The Gunnery. Although his principal interests and talents lay in mechanics and airplane assembly, Pete engaged in various phases of school life, During his off-moments The Little Pilot tinkered with his airships and engines. His models, neatly constructed and designed, revealed his efforts of craftsmanship and skill. Pete's main contribution to the schools curricular activi- ties revealed itself in the managerial sphere rather than the athletic sphere of Gunnery sport life. In this field he showed his real worth. Aiding the head managers of virtually every sport in his two years of apprenticeship, Pete received major letters this year for managerial work in football, basketball, and baseball. Our ringer manager willingly rendered valuable assistance to the teams, diligently per- forming the various duties which his position entailed. Acting as corridor monitor, Rotundo's booming voice could be heard nocturnally calling lights through the halls of Brinsmade. In addition, he aided The Gunnery News board, serving as assistant business manager. Pete termi- nated his three years with an acceptance at Northrop Aero- nautical School. IQIDWARIRD JOSEPH LALUMIA 19,28-U19 BROWN A one year boy, Lum has spent a fruitful and eventful year at The Gunnery. Noted for his easy temperament and ready smile, Prof was sure to be present at any session of hilarious nature, revealing some strange and lucid tales of his Naval adventures in the Bahamas. During the months the Prof was at Gunnery he not only maintained a con- sistent level scholastically, but showed an easy prowess in all forms of sports. He won his first major letter in football where his bonefbruising tackles constantly menaced the opposing teams. During the winter term, Tom was unde- cided as to which coach to blessg Mr. Sturges and hockey, or Mr. Beebe and basketball, but he turned his full attention to a nurse in the VUaterbury Hospital where he found him- self without his appendix. Returning to school after his unbearable confinement, Tom roamed center field on the varsity baseball team and earned his second letter, Tom ruled despotically in his monitorship at the cottage, and thanks to his good nature, said cottage is still in existence. The Mayor intends to enter the field of law or journalism after his graduation from college. s4,iWv '
