Doctor Frederick Luther Carriage, the Headmaster of Pawling, began his eminent career as a schoolmaster immediately upon his graduation from Brown University in 1882. His first position was that of Greek Instructor in the Delaware Academy, Delhi, New York. In 1885 he was elected principal of the Oxford Academy, Oxford, New York, a place which he filled with the greatest success and honor until he was called to the larger and more important task of taking up the headmastership, in 1893, of St. Paul’s Cathedral School, Garden City, Long Island, at that time one of the growing and prom- sing Church schools of the East. His success at St. Paul’s is attested by the wonderful record which he made during the fourteen years in which he guided its destiny. He came into charge when St. Paul’s was a school of about sixty boys. When he resigned the headmastership in 1907, there was a total registration of over one hundred and eighty boys, with a graduating class of almost sixty. An achievement as great as that is a sure guarantee ot future recognition; and he had no sooner made public announcement of the fact, during the summer of 1907, that he would open a school the following fall, founded by himself, in Pawling, New York, than it was acclaimed with the intensest interest and enthusiasm by his former patrons and boys everywhere. Consequently he experienced no difficulty whatsoever in opening school on the first of October, 1907 in the old Dutcher House, at Pawling, with seven masters and eighty-five students. To the untiring efforts and the sincere devotion of this man, Pawling School owes the enviable reputation and phenomenal success which it has won during the sixteen short years of its existence. As headmaster ot Pawling, Dr. Gamage has worked along lines of scholarship and character building which he knows from long experience will be best for, and will bring out the best in every boy who comes under his care. He has always been a strong exponent of fair play and high ideals. He has ever tried to instill into the hearts of his boys those fine principles of manhood which are so nobly exemplified in his own character. The reason why he enjoys such splendid and hearty co-operation with the school, and with the Sixth Form in particular, is that he appeals to the side of the boy that is fine and fair, and deals with him, not so much as a headmaster, but as a trusted friend and counsellor who, every boy feels, knows just what is best for him in his own peculiar boyish difficulties. In this way he wins and keeps the hearts of his boys not only during their preparatory school days, when they are directly under his supervision and guidance, but after they have graduated and gone out into the larger life of college or business. The Scroll takes much pride and pleasure in paying this well-earned tribute to the man who has done so much to make our Alma Mater what it is today. Furthermore, we wish to assure the Doctor that the love and devotion which he showers upon the school is deeply felt anil reciprocated by those who yearly go forth from her walls happier and richer boys, both in character and in learning. 15 (ibi' iFarultu JAMES M. ELLIOTT, A. B. Mathematics Mr. Elliott was graduated from Chicago Uni- versity in 1901. He became Master at North Division High School, Chicago, III. He came to St. Paul’s School, Garden City, L. I., in 1905, and to Pawling in 1907. During Dr. Carnage’s absen:e in the winter of the past year, Mr. Elliott was Acting Head-Master. HORACE E. HENDERSON, A. B. English Mr. Henderson was graduated from Bow- doin College in 1879. He was Grammar School Principal in Bath, Me., lor two years, and afterwards he became Master ot the High School at Bath. In 1883 he was made Prindipal of the High School at Whitman, Mass. After teaching ten years there he went to St. Paul’s School, Garden City, L. I., and came to Paw- ling with Dr. Carnage in 1907. GEORGE W. ANDERSON, A. B. Latin Mr. Anderson was graduated from Yale Uni- versity in 1904. He immediately went to St. Paul’s School, Garden City, L. I., where he taught for three years and came in 1907 to Pawling with Dr. Carnage. 17 ERNEST JACOB REITER, A. B. Mathematics Mr. Reiter was graduated from Muehlenberg College in 1912. He did graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania for one year, and then went to the Yeates School, Lancaster, Pa. He came to Pawling in 1916. From 1917 to 1919 he served in the U. S. Field Artillery, A. E. F., returning to Pawling in the fall of 1919. FRANK SMOYER, A. B. English Mr. Smoyer was graduated from Yale Uni- versity in 1907. He did post graduate work at the University of Munich and at Colum- bia. Before coming to Pawling in 1919, he was instructor in rhetoric at the University of Minnesota. PIERSON CURTIS Latin, Mathematics Mr. Curtis graduated from Princeton in 1913. From 1913 to 1916 he was a master at The Kingsley School. Then he went to Pawling until 1918, when he entered the Service. He served in the Navy for one year. From 1919- 1920 he taught at Browne and Nichols School. He returned to Pawling in the fall of 1920. 18 THE REV. GRIEG TABER, A. B., B. D. History Mr. Taber was graduated from St. Stephen’s College in 1916 with the degree of A. B. From there he entered Seabury Divinity School from which 'he was graduated in 1919. He was ordained to the Diaconate in June, 1919, and to the Priesthood in December, 1919. he received the degree of Bachelor of Divinity at Seabury Divinity School in 1920. He was English instructor in Shattuck School at Fari- bault, Minn., in 1918, and remained there until 1920. During the summer of 1919 he was a missionary at Meeker, Colo. In the summer of 1920, he was Curate at All Saints’ Church, Boston. He came to Pawling in 1920. DR. JOSEPH EDWARD HARRY, A. B., PH. D. Spanish and French Dr. Harry was graduated from John Hopkins University in 1889 with the degree of A. B., and later received a Ph. D. degree in Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin from the same institution. He began his career as an instructor at George- town University, where he taught Greek and German, after which he taught Greek at the University of Cincinnati. Following this, he taught courses of Greek drama, in French, at the University of Paris. He then returned to America and became head of the French, Ger- man, Spanish, and Latin departments of the Battin High School in Elizabeth, N. J. Besides this, he is the author of six books dealing with the Greek drama, and has done much writing in other lines. He came to Pawling in the fall of 1923. MR. MARIO WALTER DE VITALIS, A. B. French Mr. DeVitalis was a member of the class of 1920 at Brown University, but when war broke out he left college to “go over”, serving in the U. S. Artillery for two years. After his return to this country, Mr. DeVitalis taught and coached at Blair Academy in 1920 and 1921. The following year he returned to Brown to complete his course, and in 1923 received his A. B. degree. Besides being head coach at Pawling, Mr. DeVitalis teaches French and certain other Third Form subjects. 19 faculty tiff Duty 21 22 IJrrftrts Donald Newell Hendey, Senior Prefect Clarkson Black Frederick Johnson Hamilton Edward Linus Herrick Dean Davidge Smith Thomas Colwell Thomas James Daniel Thompson 23 (Ehr (CIubb nf 1U24 27 '19-'20 Football Squad, Hockey Squad, Third Baseball Team, Vice-President of Form. ’2()-’21 Football Squad, Hockey Squad, Mid-Year Dance Com- mittee, Baseball Team, President of Form. ’2.V24 Captain Football, Hockey Team, Mid-Year Dance Com- mittee, Sec’v. and I reas. of Ath- letic Association, Taft and Sal- isbury Tea-Dance Committees, Baseball Team, Commencement, Prom Committee, St. John’s Soc- iety.

However, we returned this Fall to find him in our midst once more, and this rime he brought with him an added ability in all forms of ath- letics.

At the end of two terms he was still far from discouraged, and consequently early this term, he reached his goal. But the ability to do hard work well, although one of his greatest virtues, is not all that we will remember “Jack” by. He is more or less like “Don” Hendey in that he enjoys a good time (on the top corridor), and can get a great amount of satisfaction from a midnight raid. Will we ever forget the night he made the Form? To say the least, no! He broadcasted the fact from his own corridor, and his approach up- wards was heralded by shouts that would wake the echoes of the dead. A hard, consciencious worker, who likes a good time as much as anyone.

From the very be- ginning his new acquaintances tried to get his goat, as always happens to a fat man, but they soon found that they had picked the wrong fellow. Bis “has no such animal”, for there never was a jollier, better-natured person in all this world. He simply radiates with mirth, and ever since his arrival here he has been the boy with a thousand friends. He is also known and well-liked by every one within a ten-mile radius of Pawling.

Above, in the tintype, is seen the fighting face of Clarkson Black, the only representative of the “Smoky City” that has dared (or been per- mitted) to stay in our midst. We might add that he should be given a medal for staying in Prep School so long—eleven years. Although possessing a violent antipathy to all kinds of work requiring any use of the brain, he has gained distinction in all forms of extra-curricula activity. Besides being Captain of Track, and Captain-Elect of Football, he has proved him- self extremely capable as a member of the Scroll and Weekly Boards.

Little did any- one suspect him to be a great hurdler, but when we began to get acquainted with him, we found out also that he was a regular fellow, and our opinion on that score has not changed one iota. With his track abilities, and his silver tongue, we are certain of his success at BROWN 32 ’21-’22 Football Squad, Track Squad. ’22-’23 Sergeant-at-Arms of House (Fall Term), Executive Commit- tee of House, Dramatic Club, House Debating Team. ’23-’24 Stage Manager of Dramatic Club, Editor of Dramatic Club Program, Business Manager of Scroti, St. John’s Society. Although “George” has never gone in very much for athletics, due to a serious accident in his youth, his time has been more than taken up with Scroll and Dramatic Club work, and enough praise cannot be given to him for his excellent work in those lines. Indeed his job on the set of “Officer 666” ranks him as one of the leading “David Belascos” of Pawling. But, beside that, he has a knowledge of things in general that is unsurpassed. If you ever wish to know anything about animal, vegetable, or mineral matter, “George” can tell it to you. BROWN George Dunn Eggleston Binghamton, N. Y.

Ev” Another one of our new Sixth Formers, “Ev” has gained a place for himself in the esteem of his fellows by his quiet and unassuming bearing. He is one of those fellows who never say very much, but always “Carry the message to Gar- cia”. In other words “Ev” always gets what he goes after, and it is due to his absolute relia- bility that everyone has learned to respect and like him so. Before he came here, we had begun to fear that nothing bright ever came from White Plains, but now we have to take that back. He goes, with the best wishes and respect of all of us, to DARTMOUTH 34 ’23- 24 Football Squad, Swimming Team, Track Team. “Jack” has accomplished something that few can boast of having achieved in so short a time at school. Although he has only been here since the middle of the first term, he has in the inter- im made the Sixth Form and two varsity teams. It is only seldom that a school gets an athlete and a scholar combined, and yet even if it did, these qualities would be of no avaU if the posses- sor of them were not a fine fellow. The school has nothing to worry about on that score in Jack’s case. If he continues to work in such a fashion, he is bound to achieve success at YALE John Stark Gorbv Terre Haute, Ind. “Jack” 35 George Mason Gross Providence, R.

If he continues in the same path next year, he is sure to be more than well received at BROWN 36 ’20-’2l Midget Football, St. Johns, Society, Midget Basketball.

His appointment as a prefect last Fall, gave excellent proof of his qualities of leadership and character.

But “Don” has more than deserved all his numerous honors. Although possessing a genial spirit of fun, he has never forgotten the dignity oi his position, and he has carried out his manifold duties with an unassuming modesty worthy of his position. Although not especially athletic-looking at first glance, Don has repre- sented the school in numerous branches of sport, and in him it had a worthy representative. He has been a great addition to the Football, Baseball, Basketball, and Golf teams, and at the same time was captain of the latter two.

Validictorian. Way back in 1918 a little boy from Milford started our class on its long and more or less ad- venturous career. Little did anyone realize at the time that that same little boy would some day graduate from the school with such a long list of important school positions after his name. Now, however, after six years have passed, “F'd” has indisputably become the John Barry- more of the school, and one of the hardest work- ers in his class. The stage will evidently be his future, if he can ever get over the deadening habit of constant worrying. With such a record as he has gained for himself here at Pawling, his success is assured at BROWN iiiiiiiiiiiimiimtiu' 39 ’20-’21 Midget Baseball, Basketball Squad. ’21-’22 Baseball Squad. ’22-’23 Speaker of House (Easter Term), Manager-Elect of Basket- ball, Golt Team.

But that is not all. Besides possessing an innate mania for any mechanism, “Hodge” has shown himself to be one of the hardest work- ers in the class, in all of his studies.

Above, gentle reader, is pictured the fair countenance of “Bob”, plus his unruly, shaggy locks. It can truthfully be said that there are few members of the class with a better dispos- ition than “Bob”, and there are few that are liked any better. There is one thing we want to know, however, anil that is what he dreams about in English VI (b.) Mr. Smover has often asked him that same question, but has never received a satisfactory reply yet.

Although “Ben” was never able to do much in athletics, he put everything he had into all he entered, and that is really what counts most. Certainly he put everything he had into his fists the many times his room was aired—anyone can tell you that. A fine fellow and one who will do well at col- lege, if only he can curb that temper slightly. PRINCETON 42 Arthur Bennet Leanord Danbury, Conn. “Art “Len” After Spates left Pawling in ‘20, it looked as if the school would have to content itself with mediocre pitchers for some time to come. It did, until last year when “Art” came to fill that extremely important position. If he was excellent then, he is super-excellent now— for verification of that fact ask anyone who has watched him pitch in any of this year’s games. Indeed a prominent baseball coach, a veteran of the Big Leagues, only recently stated that “Art” is the only amateur player he ever saw who could imitate Carl Mays—and get away with it. But pitching is only one of his extreme- ly admirable qualities. He is without a doubt one of the hardest workers in the Class. One may not believe this by looking at some of his marks, but to realize that such is the case, he need only ask some member of the top corridor who has seen “Len” at work. But, added to these two qualities, is the fact that he is a fine fellow—one whom everyone likes, and whom we all wish the best of luck at DARTMOUTH 43 William Houston Maverick San Antonio, Texas “5 7 “Satchel” ’23-’24 Football Squad, Second Foot- ball Team, Boxing Squad. “Bill’s” only fault, and it can hardly be termed as such, is a seemingly diabolical desire to sit down in someone’s room for a long “bull” session just as said person is buckling down to several hours of hard work. When he does this, however, the aggravated one need only call him by the endearing nickname of “Satchel”, and “Bill” will make himself scarce, or else shy a shoe at his inhospitable host. However, “Bill” is a hard worker, and one of those Southerners who seems to have a perpetually sunny dis- position. I.ong residence in the land of Rattlers and Gila Monsters has evidently not spoiled him for our less humid clime.

Although he hasn’t gone out for the teams very much, due to his more or less diminutive size, he has been more than a valuable asset to the publications and such extra, curricual activity that he has entered. Besides this, however, he has a ready, dry wit that has more than once convulsed us, and his impersonations of various members of the Faculty is a comedy in itself.

Reidy” • “Reidy” is seldom seen except in the com- any of “Jack”, but when discernable, he is very easy to see. Built on the general lines of an extra tall telegraph pole, he towers above his none-too-short “shadow” like the proverbial “Mutt” over the equally proverbial “Jeff”. Although he has never been able to contribute much in the form of athletics, he has entered into various other lines of extra-curricula activity with a highly commendable zeal, and has been a great success in all that he has under- taken.

We often wonder what would happen if he had to stay over for an examination but one might as well try to decide what he would do if the world came to an end. But that is not “Bill’s” only line.

His splendid ability on the athletic field is only rivalled by his success in handling the property of the Dramatic Club. Dean is probably one of the most popular boys in the Form, and also in the entire school.

The only activity that has claimed ‘‘Brud’’ as much as baseball, during his long and stormy stay at Pawling, is undoubtedly dancing. Five dance committees in two years! Some record! Yet there is another well-known tact about him that cannot pass unnoticed, and that is that there is no one in school who has sent so many Special Deliveries to one place as he has. “The Washington Letter has constantly been connected with his name since last Fall, and we hope that it may continue to be for some time. But, laying aside all airy persiflage, we must admit that there are few members of the Class who have done more for Pawling than Brud and few who are liked any better. Although never over-brilliant in his studies, he has always given his best in them, and more than his best, which is saying some, in all forms of athletics. WESLEYAN 51 ’I9- 20 Capt.

Perhaps, in all the history of the school, there has never been any one who could touch Perry and his “wise cracks”. He is unique, in that he can always tell the latest one, and always has a tew more after everyone else is thru. Judging from some of his results, we honestly believe that he could make the Sphinx laugh. Aside from his humorously loquacious character, however, there is added the tact that, although small in stature, he has done a great deal tor the school, and has always been willing to give his best.

Whether or not we have succeeded is not for us to say, but for those who have lived with us, and for those who have taught us. The history of this class was started by Edward Herrick, who entered Pawling in 1918. Since that rime he has been on all the school publications, besides being a Prefect and Pres- ident of the Dramatic Club. One year later we received four more of our present number; Austin, Mead, Reidemeister, and Roberts. Austin has made an enviable record in athletics, being a mainstay of the Baseball Team, as well as captain of the Football Team, while Mead has been on the Weekly Board and a member of the championship swimming team. Reide- meister was a member of the Weekly Board and Roberts won his letter in Football. In the winter term Thomas and Thompson entered our class. Thomas as captain of Baseball and a Prefect has certainly done his share; and Thompson, lending his talents to occupations other than athletics, has been editor-in-chief of both the Weekly and Scroll and a Prefect, also. Three more arrived in 1920 in the persons of Bissel, Hamilton, and Hodgman. In Bissel we have a football man as well as a member of the Sixth Form Council and St. John’s Society. Hamilton was a Prefect and on the Weekly Board, while Hodgman was a member of the St. John’s Society and the golf team. The year of 1921 saw the entrance of seven men, ihe largest delegation to the class. Of this number the most prominent is Donald Hendev. He has been a member of four teams, being captain of two, and as Senior Prefect and class president, he has led his class as only he could. Black a Prefect, football man, and captain of track is known by all of you. Eggle- ston was business manager of this year’s Scroll, besides being stage manager of the Dramatic Club. Others of this distinguished group are Johnson, a member of the Dramatic Club and St. John’s Society; Turner, manager of Hockey and a member of the Weekly Board; Moan- tague, the art editor of the Scroll, and editor of the Weekly, and I.ang, a member of the St. John’s Society. The following year only three joined the class to remain until this day. They are Leonard, Smith and Rose. Leonard was on the football team two years ago, and has been a star base- ball player for two years. Besides winning fame in athletics, he has established a valuable record in other activities. Smith, a Prefect, and star in both football and track needs no further mention—,his achievements speak for themselves. Besides leading his class in scholarship, Rose was business manager of the Weekly, and a member of the Dramatic Club. Bavless, Field, Gorby, Gross and Marerick did not come until last fall, but they have all accomplished much in their one year, and we are proud to have known them. Gorby and Gross are the only athletes in this group. The former was a member of the swimming and track teams, while the latter won his letter in Baseball, Football, and Hockey. Having given our attention to the personal history of the class, let us now turn to the history of the class as an organization. When Fifth Formers, we began to realize the dif- ficulties of the Sixth Form year, and to prepare for them. During this time we earnestly tried to establish a precedent in behavior and general character as a class. We strove at all times be to worthy ot the Pawling School and to follow the good examples of other Sixth Forms. Upon returning to school this year, we immediately elected our class officers, as well as the Sixth Form Council, which was to deal with any refractory members of the student body. By means of this committee and the undertorm representatives to the class, we have been able work in perfect unison with the lower forms. In co-operating with Dr. damage and the Faculty, we have done our best to lead the schoo', and in exerting our leadership, we have tried not to exercise too greatly the authority which is always vested in a Sixth Form. 59 We as a class are not without faults, but we have not realized them too late to warn the class of 1925 to profit by our experience. Our success and our accomplishments have been made possible only by Dr. Gamage and the Faculty. By his Sunday talks Dr. Gamage has not only solved many of our problems, but he has taught us lessons which will serve us in good stead the rest of our lives. Now the school year has come to a close and we are about to turn over the reins of gov- ernment to the class ot 1925. We feel that we have served the school as faithfully as we could serve it, and we hope that this year has been one of progress and improvement. We feel, too, that the incoming senior class, the class of 1925, will take up their duties where we have left off, anti carry on to even greater exploits, and that they, like us, may look back on the year’s work, and see that something has been accomplished. Paul Bonynge, Jr., Class Historian (Clafia Jirnplimi was much too lazy a day to work. It was a sunny spring day in June, and that :ind which will not permit anyone to concentrate on anything which might be ailed work. Consequently, after trying for the fifth time to read with intelli- gence the work before me, my eyes left the printed page and commenced to vander about the office room. There was the table littered with neglected work, the file of letters to be opened, and the tray of papers wihch demanded immediate attention. However, these but served to depress, and my eyes hastily sought for better things to gaze at. They took in the files, the typewriter, and finally the bookcase. Here I gazed for some time. Several thick legal books, a World Almanac, and a dictionary were wedged closely together, and there were but two more books in th it short case: a leather bound book, and on the end a 1924 Scroll. It was upon this last that my eyes rested, and I soon began to dream of the days back at Pawling. “Twenty-five years ago to-day at this time,” I mused, “I was probab- ly in the Vergil class. There sitting ahead was Jimmy Thompson, to the right Perry Turner, and back Mason Gross”—and so I began to think of my classmates. Then I wondered what had become of them. Soon the idea came to me to look them all up. This awoke me with a start, and I decided to set out at once in search of them. I joyfully laid my work aside, and after taking up the Scroll, lest my memory fail me, I left the office to begin the hunt. It often happens, that when one looks for a certain individual, he is met by everyone save that individual. This was the case to-day, but since I was looking for the entire class of 1924, it was helpful to a great degree. As I descended to the street I wondered where to begin the search, but I remembered the Scroll, and decided to proceed alphabetically. Ot course, I already knew of the now-famous members of the class, so that the number of those to be sought was somewhat reduced. There- fore, I opened the Scroll to the first page where I was confronted with a picture of Duane Austin. I should certainly have no trouble in getting in touch with him. He was known to everyone as the strong hero in those out-of-doors pictures. Perhaps the only difficulty in see- ing him would be to make my way through the numerous secretaries and large office forces with which he quite necessarily protected himself from his bold admirers. Then too, one of the hardest to pass would be that plain clothes man who shadows Duane constantly, lest he fall into trouble. I mean Bill Maverick. Next on the list was Jack Bayless. I was afraid he would be hard to find, for I did not think him a native of the city, and I had the feeling that he might slip by me before I knew it, being quite small in stature. However, I decided to wire his address in Binghamton just as an experiment. For this reason I directed my steps to the Western Union. Just as I was entering the door of the telegraph office, I saw a little fellow in the telegraph-boy uniform, rush from the counter, seize his Iver Johnson at the curb, and ride swiftly away. 1 was sure I was acquainted with him and was not greatly surprised when the girl behing the desk informed me that he was none other than the Jack Bavless whom I sought. 60 Without referring to the Scroll I remembered that Bisse! came after Bayless, and then be- gan the search for Tom. Certainly he was not liable to hide from me, but still I did not know in what city he was. I had no plan whatsoever as how to proceed, and was walking along quite deep in thought when someone greeted me with a “Haw-doo”. I did not have to look up, for I recognized at once the voice of Frederick Hamilton. I at once started asking him questions, with the result that 1 found out about a few more of my class. He did not have to tell me his profession, for I knew it at once from his round collar. However, he did say that he was diong settlement work as well as keeping up his parish. Ben I.ang, he told me, was his sexton, and although a bit frugal in regard to coaling the furnace, nevertheless on the whole quite satisfactory. Carl Rcidemeister, he coutinned, was now a doorman, while Jack Roberts drove a truck tor a concern which took the ashes from Reidy’s establishment. This gave him an excellent opportunity of seeing his old chum at least once a week. I left Ham with many thanks, which however were rewarded merely by an Umm-hummm”. I continued walking thinking of how to find Tom. Then I thought of Black, after Bisscl, and finally Bonyngc. I did not have to look up the latter, for surely all of New York, perhaps all of the country, knew of the great law concern Bonynge and Company, of which he was the head. I was thinking of these things and walking along all the time without raising my head, when my feet met the end of the walk and the beginning of the street. I looked up quickly and beheld a large automobile approaching at rather a speedy rate. It was too late to go back, and it the driver had not had excellent control I undoubtedly would have been killed. A straight eight of smooth sporty lines drew up scarcely three feet from me and I beheld Charlie Hodgman in the driver’s seat. After greeting him I told him my plans for the day, and he immediately placed himself and his car at my disposal. I climbed in over some golf bags, and I told him to drive around and tell me anything he knew about our classmates. He knew about just two members of the class: Brud Thomas and Perry Turner. Brud, he said, was a dancing master, and Perry the caddie master at Charlie’s Country Club. He added that although a bit severe on some of the smaller caddies, Perry always had an excel- lent supply of bag carriers for all occasions. The car then came to a stop, for the street was torn up on one side, and the single stream of traffic was blocked by a delivery truck which stopped to let its deliveryman enter a house. Over the deep ditch a tall man stood and scolded a worker here for his idleness, and another for his sloppy work. I had no difficulty in recognizing this foreman as George higgles ton. Just then a chubby butcher boy ran from the house with his empty basket, and into the car which had been blocking the traffic. The butcher boy was Jack Mead. The truck then moved on and we were able to continue our jounrey, tor by this time wc had decided to inquire about Tom from his old roomate Bill Rose of Ellenvillc. The car, under the skillful management of Charlie, dodged about the busy streets, until we stopped to let a trolley car in front empty its passengers. After they had passed from the car to the curb, and new ones from the curb to the car, we saw Rob Johnson inside ringing up fares and passing out transfers. We were on the point of hailing him, when he moved a lever and shut the doors. Then we made our speedy way out of the city missing trucks anil wagons, sometimes by three feet, and often by less than a twelfth part of one. Once clear of the heavy traffic, Charlie speeded up a bit and it was in less than an hour that we arrived in Kllenville. Immediately our attention was attracted by a huge frame building which towered over its neighbors, and across the top of which was a huge sign bearing the name of the owner and his wares. We both had no difficulty in reading: William R. Rose, General Store. Charlie swung up to the curb, and we entered the store. There inside was the owner sitting on a potato sack, reading the local newspaper. He remembered us at once and invited us to come in and sit down. Further back in the store I saw a tall thin man greatly bent over by age. I questioned Bill concerning this man and we were told, much to our surprise, that it was Jim Thompson. Bill explained that he had made a brilliant start after leaving school, and a great future had been predicted for him, but he soon used up all his ability, and finally became poor. We implied that it was only out of the kindness of his heart that Bill had employed Jim. Upon being asked concerning other members of the class, Bill told us that Tom Bissell was now the proprieter of a lunch wagon in his town, Massillon. We could easily picture him as the friend of all this patrons, and the very personification of hearty happiness. 61 After talking over old times we invited Bill up to the city to have lunch with us. He said that he would have been pleased to accept had he not had to preside that afternoon at an alderman’s meeting. Once inside the car again Charlie’s foot seemed as if weighted with lead and the accelerator was shoved down level with the floorboards. It was only once in that trip back to the city that there was any lessening in our maddening pace. When a car rounded a corner, careened madly on two wheels, arighted itself, and headed towards us, we were forced to leave the narrow road, and after ripping through a rail fence, we came to rest in the middle of a potato field. This noise rudely awakened the peaceful slumbers of a man who had been sprawled under the shade of a nearby tree. He lazily arose and sauntered over to the car, armed with a hoe with which he had been ministering to the potatoes. Any one else less good natured would nave forced us to pay for the fence and the potato plants which we had damaged, but Don Hendey merely expressed his gladness to see see us. He explained that he was now a gardener, and soon we were talking of Pawling. While we were conversing, a bell rang across the road, and we turned around, seeing a little country school house. Evidently it was recess, for the happy children were pouring from the door. Finally the last child romped out to join his friend, and we saw standing in the door- way a tall kindly looking gentleman. We were no little surprised when Don told us that this was Kv Field. Soon Ev rang the bell again, recalling his pupils, and disappeared into the house. We said good-by to Don, and Charlie deftly backed the car on the road. I turned around to see Don fade out of sight as we glided toward the city. We stopped at a hotel in the city in time for lunch, and after parking the car, entered the dining room. The place seemed entirely full, but we beckoned to the head waiter, who was soon at our side. He seemed very anxious to please, as if seeking a tip, and it was not until we heard him scold one of the waiters that we recognized Clarkson Black. He showed us to a good place, and time permitted him, he bent over our table and talked with us. He informed us that Mason Gross patronized the hotel continually. Mason was now a very popular clubman of the city and famous for his dinner parties. We could see that Clarkson played an important part in these. Arthur Leonard, Clarkson said, was another of his patrons. He came there almost every day to lunch, after a hard morning in the office where he drew interest from his many bonds and securities. Clarkson finished by saying that he had seen Dean Smith the night before. Dean was now Mayor of Binghamton, and was stopping over the week-end in the city. After the luncheon we determined to continue the search, anil upon consulting the Scroll, 1 discovered that there were but two of the class whom we had not yet seen,—Edward Herrick and Jack Gorbv. We were pretty sure of finding Ed in a Hew Naven theater, or at least in that city, and Charlie was overjoyed at the prospect of being able to drive there. Again we settled down on the front seat, and were immediately tearing on toward our destination. We shot down the shore road through the many suberbs, and came to a pause only when we were passing a large public beach. Charlie wished to refill the gas tank, and while we were stopping at the gas station, 1 was suddenly attracted by the Life Guard. He was tanned to a copper color which called attention to his well developed body and excel- lent physique. A small group of shop girls and stenographers were looking at him with admiration as he gracefully caught and threw a medicine ball. Just then he turned toward me and 1 saw it was Jack Gorby. By this time Charlie had filled the tank, and before I had time to speak we were speeding on our way. In Bridgeport we tried to telephone Ed’s house, but were told that there was no phone Information explained that he could be reached from a certain drug store. We called this and were told that he would be at the Schubert Theater that evening. Charlie made but short work of the stretch of road between Bridgeport and New Haven. We drove to the Schubert Theater and rushed in to get seats. Without looking at the bill, we went in. The curtain was up and the players of the stage. Apparently Ed had not yet come on. Then someone with a flashlight asked for our tickets, and ushered us to our seats. The search was ended—it was Ed. 62 J. L. Montague, Class Pwphct U,ij? Sixth 3un m (Emmril 'File Sixth Form Council, originated by the Class of 191S, has been most successful as a means of dealing with refractory underformers. The work of the Council has saved much time and trouble for the Sixth Form, particularly when the subject was a misguided member of the lower school. Its success lies in the fact that it is easier to get into communication with an underformer with a small group than with the entire class. 63 Xttfcrfarm Kpjjrmtttattofl tn thr Sixth 3Form Iftftli 3Fnrm R.

Six lettermen were members of a squad of thirty- five which practiced daily for the opening game of the season with Manual Training High School of New York. The opening game of the year was played on October 6 with Manual. After leading for the greater part of the game by virtue of two beautiful drop kicks by Austin, the daring last minute for- ward pass attack of the visitors put over a touchdown with two minutes of play remaining, and the kicked goal gave the New York team a 7-6 victory. The Red and Black showed excellent defensive strength, but the offense, with the exception of the first part of the game, was woefully weak. Smith starred on de- fense and offense and Austin also played a stellar game. After working hard for a week on the more glaring faults of the opening game, the team journeyed to Salis- bury the following Saturday and met defeat at the hands of the champion Salisbury 82 eleven by a score of 37-6. In this contest the string of hard luck which was destined to follow Paw- ling thruout the season made its first appearance and the result was an in- jury to Black’s knee which kept him out for the rest of the season. Gross, Smith, Sturhahn and Hendey were our other cripples. The strong Berkshire eleven, boasting a victory over Hotchkiss, and with one of the strongest teams in recent years, was the next opponent of the Red and Black. Fighting with their backs to the proverbial wall, the Pawling gridders held back their heavier oppo- nents for the entire first half, and only through their superior weight did the visitors manage to break through in the last half to score six touchdowns. The final score of 33-0 does not reflect the closeness of the struggle. The Red and Black rose to the highest heights on the following week when it tied the heavy and experienced Kent eleven at a score of 13-13. Fighting to the last ditch, and coming into the final quarter behind by a score of 13-0, the fighting Pawling warriors came from behind to gain a moral victory in the greatest and hardest fought contest in Pawling football history. Bissel’s 65 yard run on an inter- cepted pass will live long in the memories of Pawling graduates, and the never-say-die spirit proved the deciding factor in the great uphill fight. Don Hendey scored both touchdowns. Once again superior weight and injuries told against Pawling when Hotchkiss, after being held to a 14-7 score during the first half, ran up a total of forty points in the second halt and won the first of the so-called “big games” of the season. Young and Smith starred for Pawling. In the final game of the season, before the largest crowd of the season, the Taft champions, smooth, powerful, and mercilessly effi- cient, crashed through the game by futile resistence of the Red and Black, and captured the final game of the season by a score of 38-0. Strong and Hendey starred for Pawling. Next year, with the ground work of Mr. DeVitalis’s system laid, the season should be one of great success. With many letter men returning, to say nothing of stars who are now in school who were not available during the past season, the football team of 1924 should make a most noteworthy record. 83 U,hr Errand JFmitball (Tram (ihr rrmth aram W. 1 '.

It was only due to the fact that four of the easiest games of the season were cancelled because of bad weather that the average was so low. The fielding work of the entire team was exceptionally good for prep school ball, but the batting was far from what it should have been. Indeed, it was without a doubt due to the latter cause that the team lost the first game with Hotchkiss. The infield was one of the best that Pawling ever possessed, the battery, for the most part comprised of Leonard and Phillips, was excellent, and the outfield was good. The batting alone was the weak spot of the team, and if that could have been remedied the 1924 Baseball Nine would un- doubtedly have had a championship season. Saturday, April 12, found Pawling opposed to Mamaroneck High School, and after a one-sided contest the Red and Black triumphed by the count of 8-1. Leonard and Hendev pitched excellent ball, and were backed up splendidly by the entire team. The following week New York Military Academy was encoun- tered, and after a slow game Pawling again emerged victorious, to the tune of 11-4. In this game the fine catching of Phillips and the splendid relief pitching of Hendey proved to be the prominent features. The New York Stock Exchange, boasting of victories over Blair, Lawrenceville, and the Princeton Reserves, besides other numerous strong teams, was the next victim of the Pawling nine. The excellent brand of pitching offered by Leonard and Hendey, coupled with the excellent backing rendered by the remainder of the team, resulted in a 7-4 triumph for the Red and Black. Berkshire, with a victory over Hotchkiss to its credit, was de- feated by Pawling at Sheffield in a very exciting game. The final score was 2-0. Leonard pitched a strong game at all times, striking out sixteen batters; Phillips’ work with the stick gave the Red and Black nine the chance to win, and they certainly made the most of this offer. The following week, with the undefeated Canterbury team opposing them, the Pawling nine finished its list of early-season games in fine style, breaking its opponent’s string of seven straight vic- tories by the score of 5-3. Phillips and Leonard both showed up brilliantly in this game, and although the batting was decidedly weak, the Red and Black nine showed itself absolutely superior to its rivals thruout the whole game. The following Saturday, on Alumni Day, with the Hotchkiss nine as the opponent, the Pawling Team slumped in one inning, and as a result the visitors won with a 4-0 score. In this, the first 95 defeat of the season, the home team played excellent ball, with the exception of that one inning in which two costly errors allowed Hotchkiss their four runs. The following Wednesday the Pawling nine met the undefeated Columbia Freshman Team, and proceeded to throw the game thru a series of costly errors and bonehead plays. Leonard pitched excellent ball until the team behind him broke, and then Hendey was forced to take the helm. Although he pitched as well as anyone can be expected to do with a demoralized team behind him, he was finally forced to surrender the rubber to Austin. 'I he final score of this game was an 8-0 victory for the visitors. In the second Hotchkiss game, at Lakeville, the Red and Black nine again showed its mettle by swamping its ancient rival to the merry tune of 7-1. In this game Leonard pitched superb ball, allow- ing only two hits, and was backed by a smoothly-working, heavy- hitting team. Captain Thomas played his usual excellent game at third, and was responsible for two of the Red and Black’s hits. Phillips and Austin were both robbed of homers by the merest luck, and the excellent fielding of Stewart prevented the Blue and White nine from tallying any more than their lone run. On the following Saturday the Red and Black nine won another victory, defeating Salisbury 9-4. This game was played in a light drizzle which several times turned into a driving rain, and it was doubtless due to this fact that the Pawling Team failed to bring in more runs, for the batting was far superior in that game than it had been thruout the whole season. In the first inning, eleven Pawling men were up to bat before the side was retired, and it was due to this extraordinary fact that seven runs were brought in in the first frame. Although forced to pitch with a slimy, wet ball, Leonard showed himself to be an artist, and allowed the visitors only four hits. The next game, with Yale Freshmen, was played at New Haven. In this contest two errors cost the Red and Black nine six runs, and consequently the game. The first five innings were very exciting, ending in a 2-2 tie. In the sixth frame, however, came the two costly errors that won the game for the Yearlings. If such a thing as luck has any place in a baseball game, it certainly was perched on the Blue and White dug-out in this game, for the Pawling nine outplayed their opponents in every phase of the game, including errors. The next game, with the strong Irving team, resulted in a 5-0 victory for the Red and Black nine. In this game the features were Leonard’s superb pitching, and the backing rendered him by the infield. The last game of the season was played with the sterling Kent nine at Kent, and resulted in that school’s first baseball victory over Pawling in the sixteen year’s of baseball relations between the two schools. Although Leonard allowed his hosts only three hits, a batch of costly errors resulted in a 2-9 defeat for the Red and Black. Captain Thomas was the only Pawling man to get a hit in this game, a hit that was made just at the right time. 96 IhQ ho pjon '21 97 Ulrark Aaanriatum QDfttrrra 99 dllir 1424 (track Aasnriatum C.

Never has a Pawling cinder outfit been gifted with more rosy prospects, and it is with the highest hopes that every Pawling supporter looks forward to the coming season. Captain Black, winner of three events in the two major meets last year, will again run in the 100, 220, and 440 yard dashes, and is counted upon to equal the brilliant record which he set during last year. Bonvnge, Gorby, and I). Smith are three cinder artists whose efforts should swell the Pawling total in every meet by many points, and if past records count for anything, they will do it. Bonvnge will do the low hurdles, and the 100, as well as the broad jump, while Smith and Gorby will be entered in the high hurdles, pole vault, and high jump. Gorby, especially, is counted on in the pole vault, an event which he won in the New Jersey state meet last year. Conley and McCartin, together with Gorby, will take care of the weight events, and should finish well up in the final rankings. All are experienced shot putters and hammermen. The distance runs are the only weak spots in an other-wise in- vulnerable aggregation, and will cause some trouble. It has always been a Pawling weakness to be lacking a reliable distance runner, and not since the days of Harry Brigham has this weakness been remedied. This year’s schedule, in addition to calling for the regular quota of dual meets, is composed of two invitation meets, one to be held under the auspices of Yale University, at New Haven, and the second to be conducted by Columbia at New York. It is to be hoped that the results of these meets will be most favorable to Pawling. 101 {buttling ®rark Emirits Event Record Name Year 100 Yd. Dash 10 1-5 secs. W. M. Oler, Jr. 1911 A. Drury 1908 R.

R. 25; P. 28 105 alu' Reason nf 1924 A team giving one the impression of great potential strength, but lacking that finesse and sureness which is a necessary attribute of all great basketball teams— a team capable of rising to the heights, only to fall to the depths in the very next game. Such a team was the 1924 Pawl- ing basketball quintet. The first practise boded well for a great team for, in addition to the two letter men of last year’s team and one of the previous year, there were Merselis, of last year’s Passaic team, Williams and Jones, all players of former experience. These were finally moulded into a team composed of Conley and Williams, for- wards, Merselis, center, and Jones and Hendey, guards. This team faced Boys High of Brooklyn, in the opening game, and received a 42-19 defeat. As Boys High was the champion of Greater New York, this game was no disgrace. The second game, on December 15, was a hard-fought contest with Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn, which necessitated an extra period for a decision. After leading for the greater part of the game, the Red and Black quintet went to pieces and Adelphi managed to eke out a 35-33 victory. Merselis starred for Pawling. After the Christmas vacation, the squad was augmented by the addition of Burdick, a forward, and Phillips, a guard, both of whom were immediately installed in regular positions on the team. In the first game after the holidays, on January 16, Pawling won its first game of the season by defeating Eastman Business College by a score of 40-39. Burdick celebrated his initial appearance in a Pawl- ing uniform by leading the scoring and playing a fine all around game. A week later, with Burdick again showing the way, the home team triumphed over the Millbrook Y. M. C. A. by a score of 39-32. Phillips and Hendey played a great guarding game. Yonkers High School was our next opponent, and managed to emerge the victor after the hardest kind of a battle by a score of 27-26. The final score clearly shows the closeness of the struggle. W. W. Cos lev, Mgr. 106 A week later we lost another tough game, this time to Poly Prep of Brooklyn, whose team came out on top by a score of 30-26. As in previous games our team showed itself capable of playing a won- derful game for a half, only to go to pieces in the final period and allow the opponents to walk off with the victory. Captain Hendey starred. Owing to another misunderstanding in schedules, we were forced to play the next game with Korham Prep without the services of Captain Hendey, Burdick, and Phillips, all of whom were home on week-ends. The loss of these star players was sadly felt, and, although the reconstructed team fought hard, the handicap was too great and we lost our third straight game by a score of 29-21. The next game resulted in an easy victory for Pawling over Man- hattan Prep by a score of 53-17. Wertheimer starred for Pawling. In the first game on a foreign court the Taft quintet easily won from Pawling by a score of 44-20. The unfamiliar court caused the Red and Black to miss many easy shots, and the Taft men were never headed thruout the game. Barnard School just nosed out a victory on the home court on the following Wednesday when, after being led at the end of the half by a score of 18-11, they came from behind in the last period and won by a score of 37-35. Burdick again starred. Irving School secured revenge for their defeat at the hands of Pawling last year when they handed the Red and Black an artistic trimming on the Irving court by a score of 42-17. The strange court again bothered the Pawling players. In a game played before the Mid-Year guests, the team showed a pleasing reversal of form and again trounced the Millbrook Y”. Merselis was easily the star of the game, and made more than half of his team’s total. In the final game of the season, the team showed what might have been expected of it during the season when it gave the strong Ray- mond Riordan its first defeat in fourteen games. The fight shown by the team in this game was wonderful, and the great work of Hendey, Phillips, and Williams contributed largely to the final score of 28-25 in favor of Pawling. Thruout the season Captain Hendey, Merselis, and Burdick played a sterling brand of basketball, and contributed largely to the victories of the team. While the season may be regarded as unsuc- cessful, inasmuch as only five out of thirteen games were won, never- theless the brand of court work shown in the last two games prom- ises well for the future. As all but one letter man return to school next year, we may expect to see a truly great team as the Pawling court representative next year. 107 ahr Sorkrtj aram I 6� G. B. Ellis, Capt. (Oftirrrs G.

The very fact that three of the seven defeats was by the margin of a single goal shows what might have been the lot of the team had Dame Fortune elected to smile upon the Pawling sextet. Poor ice, which continued through most of the season, and greatly handicapped the team, caused the cancellation of the initial game with Mohonk, and prevented more than three days of practise before the open- ing game with Canterbury. The excellent individual playing of Jones and Austin tailed to overcome the smooth passwork of the visitors, and the lack of practise evinced by the Pawling goal guard was responsible, in a large degree, tor the 9-1 score which Canter- bury’s offense was able to amass. The second game of the year, with Hotchkiss, resulted in a 2-0 victory over our old rivals on the Lakeville rink. The long hours of practise began to have their effect, and the team work displayed in this game was excellent. Austin and Jones again starred on the offense, and scored both the goals. The next game was also with Hotchkiss, and was played in zero weather on our rink. The Lakeville sextet was badly outclassed, and only a remarkable display of fight and nerve kept the Hotchkiss goal from being sullied. The only score of the game was registered in the last period by a lucky shot which just barely managed to elude the stick of Ellis. Captain Ellis starred. On a rink covered with the worst kind of slush, and of such a kind as to prevent any team work whatsoever, the Taft team won from the Pawling icers by a score of 2-1 in an overtime period at Pawling. P. B. Turner, Mgr. 110 Two long shots accounted for the defeat, while Jones, after a long trip through the entire Taft team, lodged our only score of the game in the cage during the second period. The next two games were with Kent, whose team was heralded as one of the best Prep school ice aggregations ever developed in the East. In the first game, played on the huge Kent rink, the Red and Black was outclassed, after putting up a stellar game for the first two periods, and the final score of 9-0 was far from disgraceful. Ellis’s goal keeping was the feature of the game. In the second game, played on our rink, the Pawling team fairly outdid itself in holding the Kent team to a 4-1 score. The goal guarding of Morris, making his first start for Pawling, verged on the spectacular, and kept many shots from being registered to the credit of the visitors. Once more Jones played a beautiful game, and scored our only goal on a pretty shot from the side. I he Poughkeepsie Athletic Club, with a long string of victories to its credit, came to Pawling for the next game, and met a decisive defeat by a score of 8-4. For the first time this season Lady Luck was with the Pawling team, and the Red and Black athletes made the most of the brief interim of favor. Howe led the attack with five goals. Morris again starred. The next game was played with the Dartmouth Freshmen at Pawling, and resulted in a 4-2 victory for the collegians. As in pre- vious games, bad ice prevented the team work upon which the Red and Black sextet relied, and only some excellent individual playing bv Jones and Gross kept the score down. As it was, we tied the Frosh for two periods at 1-1, until the attentions which Lady Luck bestowed upon the visitors proved too much of an obstacle, and three lucky shots bounced under the feet of Ellis. In the last game of the year, played on the Berkshire rink, Dame Fortune again deserted the Pawling colors, and we met defeat by a 1-0 margin. The only score of the game was made by Berkshire in the opening minutes of play when, with the puck in the center of a wild scramble in front of the Pawling cage, a Berkshire player man- aged to lodge it in the netting. Although Pawling had the puck in Berkshire territory for the major part of the game, the handicap proved too much, and the season ended with another hardly lost game. Thruout the season Captain Ellis, Austin, and Captain-elect Jones played a brand of hockey which augurs well for their future in collegiate circles. As there will be a large number of letter men back next year, it is hoped that a successful season will be the lot of the 1925 icers. Ill ahr Swimming arum I he Scroll Board wishes to take this opportunity to con- gratulate the Swimming Team for its splendid season. When one considers the fact that they won every meet during the year, and capped this splendid teat by winning the Champion- ship of state, that alone is cause enough for the greatest praise. But added to this is the fact that they really had to coach themselves during the whole season, and then were willing to devote a part ot their Spring Vacation to going to Syracuse lor the Interscholastics, going on their own initiative and without a coach. It is not often that the Scroll does this, hut in this case we feel that too much credit cannot he given to those hoys who comprised the greatest Swimming Team that the Pawling School ever possessed, and who made that team the success it was due solely to their own efforts and their own school spirit. 11 ODffirrra C.

C. Hendrickson Captain 114 (Ehc nf 1424 Winning every dual meet by a wide margin, and overwhelmingly defeating the best high schools as well as prep schools of the state at the Syracuse Interscholastics, the 1924 swimming team takes its place at the head of a long line of successful Pawling tank outfits. Four school records were broken during the dual meets, and in the state meet two New York State records fell before the onslaughts of Hendrickson and Larkin. On January 17, the first dual meet of the season was held with McBurney School of New York as our opponent. With Hendrickson, Mead, and Larkin breaking school records, in the 220 yards, plunge, and backstroke, the team had no difficulty in winning the meet by the overwhelming score of 44to The Red and Black natators were victorious in every event except the fifty yard free style, and took a majority of the other places. Captain Hendrickson alone accounted for twelve points. The second meet of the season was also held in the Munsill tank, with Berkely Irving School. As was the case before, Pawling swamped the visitors, and not only won every first place, but took every possible point. In this meet Captain Hendrickson broke the school record for the one hundred yard free style, only to have his record nulled when it was learned that only one watch had timed him. Entering the state meet at Syracuse University as the “dark horses” of the meet, the Red and Black athletes showed they must be reckoned with in the finals when every man placed in the pre- liminary heats which were held on Friday, March 21. On Saturday, against some of the best opposition to be found in the East, the Pawling outfit decisively defeated the field, and by scoring 40 points, won the state championship. F. C. Reidemeister Manager jK 115 Hendrickson easily walked away with the honors in the 1(X) and 220 yard dashes in such a manner as to be acclaimed as one of the best dash men in the East. His feat of taking 14 seconds off the Syracuse tank record for the 220 yard dash and also in fracturing the state record by nearly 5 seconds, will stand the test of quite a few assaults on the part of New York swimmers. Larkin also broke the state record in the 50 yard back stroke when he took 3-5 of a second off the old mark. Previously he had broken the school record by a much wider margin in a dual meet. |. Mead and Gorby were the other individuals to give Pawling the necessary points to come out victorious. Mead won the plunge by a wide margin and Gorby defeated some of the best opposition from Buffalo and Rochester in winning the dive for form. The relay team, composed of Gorby, DeRuvter, Teller and Hendrickson, won the final event of the meet and clinched the state championship for us. Too much credit cannot be given to the members of the team who worked so hard to give Pawling a successful season. Not only did they willingly prolong their season for nearly a month in order to enter the State championships, but they paid all their own ex- penses to the meet. Thanks should be given to Mr. Reiter and Mr. Elliott, both of whom motored to Syracuse to be with the team during the meet. The prospects for next year look especially bright at this writing. With Captain Hendrickson, Teller, Larkin, and DeRuvter as a nucleus a team should be developed next year which will leave behind a record almost as creditable as this year’s championship team. 116 Jlautlmg urimntttig iKmirftfi 220 yds. free style 2 min. 39 sec.

Under the coaching of Mr. Reiter, and the leadership of Fred Sladen, the team de- veloped into one of the best Midget gridiron aggregations which has ever represented Pawling, and much of the material will be of great use to the first team next year. The first game of the year, with South Kent School, re- sulted in a walkaway for the Red and Black team, and the final result of 40-0 gives a clear indication of the relative abilities of the two teams. I he Town team was next encountered, and after a hard struggle, played in a drizzling rain, the Pawling eleven won the first victory over the Town which a Midget team has ever won, by a score of 6-2. The strong Canterbury Junior team was next met at Can- terbury, and the Pawling Midgets avenged their defeat at Canterbury’s hands last year by winning a 20-0 verdict. The game was always in Canterbury territory, and at no time was the result in doubt. Kent’s Juniors were next encountered on their own field, and as in the Canterbury game, the Midgets evened up old scores by trouncing their opponents, 20-0. The game was the hardest of the year, and was much closer than the score would indicate. In the final game of the year, Pawling went up against the undefeated Stone team, and after the hardest kind of a struggle, the Red and Black emerged victorious, 13-7. Warner and Captain Sladen proved to be the winning factors in the victory. 126 qmili s nuqjaojf Jim %- rs rs| 3 128 K. Turner. ifliiinrt lasrlmll aram Pitcher Schwerin.. Catcher Lindsay. . .

The play, though one of situation rather than line, depended for its satisfactory- interpretation on the individual reaction of the characters to the rapid changes in situation. This requirement called for histrionic ability of a high degree. Edward Herrick, president of the Dramatic Club, who took the part of Travers Gladwin, showed great ingenuity, not only in play- ing his part as a blase young millionaire in search of a thrill, but also in impersonating Officer 666. This demand of the plot made the role of Travers Gladwin an unusually difficult one, but Herrick met it with a versatility which brought him repeated applause. In fact his whole performance was marked by a finish rarely found in an amateur actor. Clarkson Black as Officer 666, distinguished himself as an in- stinctive comedian. His conception of the possibilities of his part and his skill in making the most of them indicate an ability of no mean order. Austin Hancock took the part of Whitney Barnes, the debonair young clubman, who assists Travers Gladwin in getting his thrill. Hancock handled his role with a sureness and understanding from which it might be safe to predict that another star has risen in the dramatic firmament. He excelled in interpreting by gesture and facial expression the subtleties which exist between as well as in the lines. His pantomine in the “handcuff scene” was a piece of artistic- acting. James Thompson, as the crook, had a rather thankless part, but in spite of it he won the sympathy and admiration of his audience through the sheer brilliance of his performance. His presentation showed an appreciation of the part without which a less skilfull actor would have reduced it to broad burlesque. He was ably sup- ported by James Montague as his chauffeur and assistant. Thomas Bissell, tho taking only a small part, played it with a dash and originality that rank it high in the recollection of the audience. As a police captain he exhausted all the comic possi- bilities of the role. He was adequately supported by William R. Rose, Merton Robbins and Richard Hendey, as policemen. A hit of fine acting was done by Mason Gross, a plain clothes man. He 15) showed remarkable skill in extracting all the dramatic possibilities from a cigar. A very difficult role, that of Bateato, the Japanese servant, was very effectively acted by Donald Bryant. Though his appearances were short and apparently unimportant, they never failed to make a definite and substantial contribution to the fine comedy spirit per- vading the play. The Dramatic Club is especially fortunate in having three mem- bers so well able to take the parts of the girls. Harold Gross, as Helen Burton, impersonated a charming young lady with a readiness which has been little suspected by those who knew him; and Gilbert Cole, as Sadie Small, was no less successful in a similiar role. Both Gross and Cole played their parts with a restraint rarely found in amateur actors. John Stewart, who played Mrs. Burton, the irate aunt, entered into the comedy spirit of this character and portrayed it most convincingly. “Officer 666“ has set a high standard in the annals of the Dramatic Club. I he presentation was marked by an artistic evenness and consistence which was made possible by the uniform excellence of the cast. Altho it would be exceedingly difficult not to give too much praise to the acting, the work of George Eggleston as stage manager can not be overestimated. The stage setting, a luxurious drawing- room interior, was designed and constructed by him, assisted by a thoroughly competent staff composed of Merton Robbins, Dean Smith, Archer Young, and Francis Shepard. The scheme of in- terior decoration was effectively executed in brown and mahogany with dark red draperies. An intricate system of colored lighting greatly heightened the beauty of the scene. I he details of the business management, many of them com- plicated and exacting, were in the competent hands of William Conley, thru whose executive ability all arrangements for the presentation of the play were successfully completed. Berry Turner assumed the responsibilities of the prompter’s box and performed a thankless but exacting task faithfully and well. I he skill and hard work of Mr. Smoyer thruout the long weeks of arduous preparation cannot be appreciated too deeply. Mr. Smoyer’s wide knowledge and intimate acquaintance with the theatre has made itself evident in the production of the play. This year’s play is the first under his direction and as long as he devotes as much of his spare time every winter to the Dramatic Club the success of the play is assured. 152 ttljr (Cast Travers Gladwin (Herrick) Whitney Barnes (Hancock) � QDfttm fifiH Helen Burton Sadie Small (H.

I houghts of thee our lives ennoble; Memories dear our joys prolong; Brothers ever, ’neath thy banner, Sing we thy devotion-song. Alma Mater, thou hast taught us Faith and courage true to keep, Steadfast in the strength that cometh from the hills which round thee sweep. Evermore with eyes uplifted From thy fostering care we go, Strong to live, and reverent bear thee 1 ribute to the love we owe. 161 Alma Mdtn Alma Mater, we hail thee with loyal devotion, And bring to thine altar our off’ring of praise; Our hearts swell within us with joyful devotion, When Pawling’s renown in loud chorus we raise. The happiest moments of youth’s fleeting hours We’ve passed ’neath the shade of these time-honored walls And sorrows as transient as April’s brief showers Have clouded the glory of Pawling’s dear halls. And when life’s golden autumn with winter is blending, And brows, now so radiant, are furrowed with care; When the blightings of age on our heads are descending, With no early friends all our sorrows to share; Oh! Then as in memory backward we wander, And roam the long vista of past years adown, On the scenes of our student life often we’ll ponder, And smile as we murmer old Pawling’s renown. 162 163 'Thompsoh '31 Slip £ rnatr Srbating arant Sljp UnuHP Drbatittij arant 164 all? $ nirntmtth Annual § ntatr-Mmtar 33rhatp Resolved-. “That the interests of the country would he served better by Government ownership of the railroads than by private ownership.” AFFIRMATIVE (Senate) Paul Bonynge, Jr. Perry B.

He is assisted in this by Mr. Hancock, who bridges the void between the two classes. Strong—As his name suggests, the head of the “Caveman Lovers” department. Under him are grouped the following sub-depart- ments: Fhe Art of Rough Necking Dept.; The Crusty Joke Dept.; The Love, and Hairy Arm Dept. Fhe Cynics’ Woman-Hating Dept, is made up of Mr. Frank Smoyer and Mr. C. Augustus Hodgman. This department for- merly included Mr. Edward Herrick, but he was found unsuited for his position during Mid-Years. There are some who say that Mr. Hodgman should also be dropped, but that remains to be seen. 177 A Sait tit Sr. Ijarrtt’a iFrrttrh (Elans Enter Eggleston, who opens the windows and gets the class room ready tor a band of Eskimos. Dr. Harry comes next, reading La Vie, and together they puzzle out a few of the better jokes. By this time, a few ot the more or less foolish are drifting into the room, and soon “Happy Joe” has enough present to start with. While he is putting some “dope” on the board to be copied (?) into the books, Conley espies the La Vie and the first row has a few minutes ot en- joyment. Finally Dr. Harry announces to the semblance of a class that he is finished, and enjoins them to start on the day’s recitation. This is interrupted by the entrance of Thomas and Thompson, munching food and reading letters, and after everyone has had something to eat, “Happy Joe” starts again. “Bonnie, read the first line of—what did you say, Jones? How do you spell turkey in French? Oh, by the way, speaking of turkey, when 1 was last in Greece, we went by boat to one of the Xzcclmanzathas Group where I saw an original statue representing Alexander washing his ears. Here I’ll show you on this map. Now here is Athens, here is Pheidippides route, that’s where Achilles killed his fourth wife, and etc.” This interesting (?) little bit of history is finally cut short by the second row all but killing Calfee for looking interested. Thomas asks him it he has on his knee pads, Montague pushes him onto the floor, Bavless sneers his worst sneer, and Phillips calls from the rear in his high, shrill voice for him to shut his face, or the least he’ll receive is a swift, painless death. During the discussion Thompson leaves the room, and finally returns with some more saltines, much to “Happy’s” discomfort. Finally Austin starts translating, with much prompt- ing from his contemporaries, and manages to get a “Gama”. Soon Jones gets into an argument with Dr. Harry about the respective merits of the U. S. in comparison with those of any other nation of the world, Jones supporting the U. S. Those of the class who don’t care to join in, either leave the room or take a nap. By this time the discussion becomes heated, so “Happy Jo”, seeing himself bound to lose, decides to cow the class by a show of wrath. 'This cows all but Bonvnge, who says that it’s bull. Dr. Harry: “Now that that’s settled, will you translate, Lignante?” Dignante: “Yes sir. ‘Surcesentrefaiteslerouliermmbbmmmmzzzzxxxbbrrr- m m m zzxxsi jeneseraispasu nom m brr. The class: “WHAT Go over it, won’t you, sir?” Calfee: “That’s not necessary, I got that perfectly May 1 do the— Crunch! “Waw-whadyah hit me for, Bonvnge?” While Field and Smith carry Calfee up to the infirmary, Thomas is called on to recite. He starts out as follows: “Je—swee—oon—garsawn—k’awn— appcl— Oh hell! Now Dr. Harry, I don’t think it’s fair of you to give us so much. I don’t want to appear displeased with your method, but Mr. Nichols never gave us so much.” Then, adroitely leading “Happy Joe” on, he con- tinues, “Now, it we were in Greece—” Dr. Harry: “Greece! Why in Greece the boys just love to work. They often do 64 million lines a day, and ask for more. Why, when I was over there in 1X23, I visited a little town of three people, by the way, it’s the oldest in the world, on the Island of Yeyayavayxxxzz, here, I’ll show it to you on the map— (the bell rings, much to the class’ relief, and all leave but Eggleston, who has French V also, so he is forced to hear all about the price of asparagus spawn in Greece.)—now when we left Brest, where I saw a hat that had been worn by Louis the 2nd, who was born two miles from where I boarded in Tuscany be- side the River La, which flows— Oh here! For tomorrow you’d better take the same lesson.” 178 Eras ©ruth u,han fJnrtrg Right in our noble Pawling School, One cold December day, Up in the bleak infirmary A dying pupil lay. A friend was there beside him A’sitting by his head, And listening to the last words The dying pupil said. “I’m going to a boarding school Where everything is free, And trots are served in every room With no one there to see. You do not have to dress to dine, Because of fussy folk, But greater, yea, than this by far, You are Allowed to Smoke'''' No stir in the Senate, no stir in the House, The study hall is as still as a mouse, The boys are an orderly, quiet band, For Hcndo rules with an iron hand. For fully fifteen minutes (or more), No sound breaks the silence, except a snore Prom a boy who is lying, deep in rest, Completely “bushed” by a Physics test. Then out ot the shadows in the rear Comes the whispered word that the “time is here”, And, as if by a prearranged sign, There arises a din like a bursting mine. When the hidden alarm clocks start their noise, A chorus of “Brrps” are sung by the boys; And from the center of that great mob Comes the rumbling roar of a heavy bed-knob! Quite vainly do Hendo, Gam, and Jim, Try to quell the deafening din That crashes upon the startled ear, Quite vainly—because vacation is near! 179 thr Iflnrlii (Hmttmue tn S run I or, 3f-?

All down but Leonard, who decides that he’s sick! “Yom” thinks otherwise. The parasites attempt to do their work during chapel. No luck! Thomas, Thompson, Montague, and Stewart leave English VI. Several more do the same stunt during the next half hour. Lang is pursued by his brother students for “welching” on them in English. Lang is left, torn and bleeding, while the rest go down for an hour of enforced study in detention. General rush for the showers. No hot water! Letters delivered. Brud wears a grief-stricken look! The faculty and prefects try to save Ben, who is once more in the hands of the mob. The Vergilites gallop thru their assignment. Leonard returns from study, so all attempted work ceases.

Reidy and his shadow come out of their cocoons to investigate the disturbance, and find Bissel doing the Dance of the Seven Veils with Six in the wash. Bissel and the Seventh Veil depart as Dewy comes out of his apartment. Mason Gross misplaces his false teeth and starts on a hunt. Mead is still wandering. 'I'lie corridor is just getting into its stride. Rose goes crazy, having received only 99% on a Physics test. “Little Lee”, having fallen thru his bed in his tenth attempt to retire, favors the corridor with a select- ion from “Hendo”. Thompson and Turner join the bull party in the “reception” room, the latter winning with ease. Herrick decides to go to bed, and after the ensuing battle is forced to do so. Mead is still wandering. Ben Lang is given his nightly “airing”. “Get out, you rotters! Aw Reidy, get out, this is my room.” Most everyone is in bed at last. Hodgman hears a car, takes a look, and goes to bed. A Ford!

BOSTON NEWPORT von Dannenberg Company 82 Beaver Street New York City sis Cocoa hearts Cocoa Gutter STEINWAY THE INSTRUMENT OF THE IMMORTALS Beneath his hands ‘the most renowned pianos of the world’ have voiced their greatest glory. His genius has tested every great piano-maker's work. Yet, for Alfred Cortot, there is but ‘one perfect instrument, the Steinway.’ You who are about to select a piano, do you not find conviction in the experience of this master? What need that you experiment ? What guide more sure than this: that since Henry Steinway made his first piano the greatest artists have preferred above all others the instrument that bears his name ? Franz Liszt! Wagner! Rubinstein! The Stein- way was their piano. It is played and loved by Paderewski, by Hofmann, by Rachmaninoff. Friedman and Levitzki will have no other. Successively each generation of the Sceinway family has pre- served the purpose that its product shall be as truly the piano of the home as it is the chosen instrument of the concert stage. The qualities that have endeared it to the masters are embodied in every Steinway that is made. For your home there is a Steinway, either grand or upright, which in tone and touch and action matches that which Cortot plays. Once you have set fingers to such an instrument, once you have known the beauty of its response, for you, thereafter, there can be ‘but one per- fect piano, the Steinway.’ There is a Steinway dealer in your community or near you through whom you may purchase a m’u Steinuay piano uith a cash deposit of toVr, and the balance will be extended over a period of two years. Used pianos accepted in partial exchange. Prices: Uprights., $875 and up; Grands, $1425 and up; plus freight 5 OPEN ALL YEAR ®ltp Sutdtrr IPintur attfc (Untta rfi WALTER B.
