THE Published by the 1949 Graduating Class of Trinity-Pawling School, Pawling, New York Mr. Harry A. Drew DEDICATION To Mr. Harry A. Drew, who has been one of the most ardent supporters of all athletic and extra-curricular activities, appearing at games and special events regardless of the time or the weather; and who has continually stood for fairness among the students in all his dealings with them, we, the class of 1949, gratefully dedicate this book. Lloyd B. Case, B.M. University of Wichita, Northwestern Juilliard School of Music Music Appreciation, Glee Club Robert W.

Thompson, B.S., Springfield, Columbia Director of Athletics 11 12 Robert Tegnier Anderson Andy” Entered 1947 30 West 56 Street. New York, New York Colby—Second Team Football '47; Varsity '48; Varsity Hockey '48, '49; Second Team Baseball '48; Track '49; Glee Club '48, '49; Trinitannus '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49; Choir '49; Rifle Club '49; Photography Club '49; Band '49. Andy, the genial chatterbox of the Sixth Form is always ready with advice, oranges, or college applications. His tales of love and conquest have always been a source of inspiration to others, and it can very truthfully be said that the class would not have been nearly so-------without him. Middlebury Terrace, Waterbury, Connecticut Trinity—Varsity Swimming, Captain '49; Varsity Baseball '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49; Rifle Club '49. A few choice words of poetry for the always jolly Ralph— There was a young man from T.-P. Who was constantly full of glee. He watched with concern The splash of his turn. But in spite of it swam wonderfully. 14 Douglas Craig Binney Doug” Entered 1947 2608 36 Street, N.W., Washington, D. C. U. S. Naval Academy—Varsity Soccer '47, '48; Spanish Club ’48, President ’49; German Club ’48, ’49; Rifle Club '48, '49; Glee Club ’48, ’49; Woodworking Club ’48; Science Club ’48; Wrestling '49; Track ’48, '49. May it never be said of Doug that he isn’t original. His sideburns, moustache, silk kimono, and all-day hikes in the woods have made many ask, What manner of man is he?” The answer is that he is one of the cleverest, most individualistic, and best liked members of the class. John Sterling Blair Stir” Entered 1948 Hanover, New Hampshire New Hampshire—Varsity Football ’48; Varsity Basketball, Captain ’49; Varsity Baseball ’49; Classical Record Club ’49. Yessuh” Blair, the gangling New Hamp-shireite, has made quite an impression both athletically and scholastically here at Trinity-Pawling. Sterling, The King of the Kids’’ on the third floor, will surely never lack friends in life, and he will amaze many a dentist with his flashing smile. 15 Frank Leonard Bowman Lenny” Entered 1948 2 Park Street, Plainville, Connecticut Rhode Island—Varsity Football, Captain ’48; Wrestling '49; Varsity Track '49; Photography Club '49; Rifle Club ’49; Glee Club ’49; Band ’19. Lenny is one of the best all-around athletes and one of the most pleasant personalities this school has seen. Although he's worried more than one coach with his pivoting tooth and tender ears, it is hoped that the pure air around Rhode Island will cure these temporary ills. Bernard Joseph Bogoslofski Bogey” Entered 1948 Simsbury, Connecticut Trinity—Varsity Football ’48; Varsity Basketball '49; Varsity Baseball ’49; Student Council, Vice-President ’49; Rifle Club, Vice-President ’49; Dance Committee '49. Bogey was a stalwart of the football team's forward wall, and he did a bang-up job for the basketballers as well. He’s a swell guy in the real sense of the word and could match wits with the best. 16 Edward Rapelyea Crocker Ed” Entered 1947 4 Strathmont Park, Elmira, New York Princeton—Varsity Football '47, '48; Varsity Swimming '48, ’49; Tennis ’48, ’49; Glee Club ’48; Classical Record Club ’48; Student Council, President ’49; Trinitannus, Advertising Manager ’49; Trinity-Pawling Times ’49; Dance Committee ’49. The affable and dynamic Mr. President of the Student Council and supreme judge of womankind has shattered many an eardrum laughing at wild tales that float out ethereally through the transoms. He just has to prove that he knows what they’re all about, and he really doesn’t enjoy them. Clarence Alvin Dunn, Jr. Bonesy” Entered 1947 1160 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York Hamilton—Second Team Football ’47; Second Team Basketball ’48; Varsity Tennis ’48, ’49; Varsity Soccer '48; Wrestling ’49; Trinity-Pawling Times, Circulation Manager '48, Business Manager '49; Trinitannus '48, Sports Editor ’49; Science Club ’48; Classical Record Club '48. Going under the aliases of Eck” and Bonesy, and various other assorted appropriate titles, Clarence may be seen nearly any day of the week darting through key holes and hiding behind sprinkler pipes. In mental and moral stature, however, he is a veritable giant and is looked up to by all Second Formers. In spite of how this sounds, he’s one of the most popular Seniors. 17 Michael Doel Johnson Mike Entered 1947 911 Park Avenue, New York, New York Amherst—Second Team Football '47, '48; Second Team Basketball '48, '49; Varsity Tennis, Manager '48; Trinitannus '48, Senior Editor '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, Feature Editor '49; German Club '48, '49; Glee Club '48. This handsome young fellow is the school's undisputed master of the irrational, deadpan type of humor, and he has more disrupted classes to his credit than all other Seniors combined. Mike, nearly always good-natured and level tempered, can take a kidding even better than he can hand one out. John Benjamin Gillette John Entered 1947 64 Market Street, Ellenville, New York Alfred—Varsity Soccer '47, '48; Var- sity Swimming, Manager '48, '49; Varsity Track '48, '49; Trinitannus '48, '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, '49; Band '48, '49; Quartet '48; Classical Record Club '48; Glee Club '48, Manager '49. John has been to Drew Seminary what Frank Sinatra is to the bobby-soxers. A stalwart and manager of the Glee Club and a soccer star, he's done much to enliven the at Trinity-Pawling. 18 John Hubert Judge John Entered 1947 20 Grove Street, Larchmont, New York Williams—Varsity Football ’47, '48; Varsity Hotkey '48, '49, Captain '48; Varsity Baseball '48, '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49; Trinitannus '49. The Larchmont lingo, the B. T. O., the load, the wheel, will always remind us of John. Watch out for this boy on the hockey rink if you’re standing anywhere near the goal. All you're liable to see is a blur and then a puck between your eyes. The sincere and amiable type is exemplified in John, who never has a harsh word for anyone. William Lawrence Kierstead Bill Entered 1948 365 Charles Street, Malden, Massachusetts Harvard—Varsity Football '48; Varsity Hockey, Co-Captain '49; Varsity Baseball '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49; Rifle Club, President '49; Woodworking Club '49; Classical Record Club '49. In Willie, we have Doc Blanchard, Maurice Pichard, Albert Einstein, and H. G. Wells all rolled into a ball that will certainly travel far in life. Who will ever forget the Olmsted-Kierstead debates or Bill's psychic knowledge of literary questions. 19 Conrad Curtis Kohlheyer Connie” Entered 1948 280 Park Avenue, Manhasset, New York Colgate—Varsity Soccer '48; Track '49; Trinitannus, Photography Editor '49; Glee Club, Concert Committee '49; Cheerleader '49; German Club '49. Connie’s neatly disordered room has long been the traditional gathering place for all would-be members of Senior bull-sessions. Every easy chair and pillow from the adjoining rooms appears on his floor as soon as more than two people gather, and smiling Herr Conrad, sitting on his dais with his legs crossed, leads the group in polite conversation. William Clarke Kruge Bill Entered 1947 29 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York Middlebury—Varsity Soccer '47, '48; Trinitannus '48, Business Manager '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, '49; Rifle Club '48, '49; Woodworking Club '48, '49; Glee Club '48, '49; Science Club '48; Photography Club '49. Here we have the postman that never even rings once, but who always seems to say nothing today just when the big letter is expected. Bill’s a quiet friendly guy who is always ready to help whether on the Trinitannus, the Times, or Mr. Darling's tractor crew. 20 Lloyd Sidney Liebes Pete Entered 1948 875 Vista Road, San Mateo, California Stanford—Second Team Football '48; Wrestling ’49; Track '49; Trinitannus '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49; Rifle Club '49. Sunny Cal's gift to eastern Prep Schooling is suave and smiling Lloyd. Ah, those stories he tells of the girls, the climate, the scenery, the women, the swimming, the skiing, and the babes! They will haunt us for years. David Holland Lott Dave Entered 1947 47 Main Street, Chatam, New Jersey Lafayette—Varsity Football '47; Varsity Hockey '48; Track '48, '49; Wrestling '49; Rifle Club '48, '49. Dave is one of those grunt and groaners who trekked up to the barracks for their daily matburns and exercise. His many and varied endeavors and easygoing personality have made him an interesting and very popular member of the community. Watch him take off in a cloud of Offenhauser exhaust fumes on graduation day. 21 Randolph Searing Merrill, Jr. Randy” Entered 1948 7 West 96 Street, New York, New York Colgate—Varsity Soccer ’48; Varsity Tennis '49; Glee Club, Concert Committee ’49; Trinity-Pawling Times ’49; Trinitannus ’49. This sleek young smoothie has the reputation of being somewhat of a socialite when he first arrived here. Much to the delight of Shatford, however, he's succeeded in living down this handicap, and he has become one of the boys.” He’s also the delight of French Three and can be counted upon to keep Froggy” laughing. Henry Robert Molwitz Harry” Entered 1947 110 Shore Rd., Old Greenwich, Connecticut Williams—Cum Laude; Varsity Football ’47, ’48; Varsity Swimming ’48, ’49; Varsity Track '48, ’49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, '49; Trinitannus ’48, ’49; Student Council ’48; Dance Committee '48. In these write-ups, everyone is receiving far more praise and compliments than are deserved, so I shall go no further than to say of myself that I am an incomparable genius and will very probably be the next Olympic decathlon champion. 22 Braxton Richardson Nagle II Brax” Entered 1947 1 Oak Lane, Scarsdale, New York Hamilton—Second Team Football '47; Varsity Soccer ’48; Varsity Hockey '48, ’49; Spanish Club ’48, ’49; Glee Club ’48, ’49; Woodworking Club '48; Choir ’49; Ski Club ’49. Where there’s a yarn to be spun or a paper to be sold, Brax is quick to lose himself in the task. Don’t forget us when you’re the world's champion Star racer and a professional hockey player. Thomas Boxley Perkins ’’Perk” Entered 1947 32 Concord Avenue, Larchmont, New York Washington and Lee—Varsity Swimming '48, ’49; Varsity Baseball '48, '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, ’49; Photography Club '48, ’49; Spanish Club ’48, '49; Ride Club ’48, ’49; Trinitannus ’49. Following Tom's immortal words, Mr. Palmer, couldn't this mean . . . ?” there usually develops a conversation which flows so far over the average sleepy head that little effort can be mustered to comprehend. In between historical works, he has found time to do a good job on both the swimming and baseball teams. 23 George Francis Quinn, Jr. Sonny” Entered 1947 11S8 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York Middlebury—Varsity Football 47, ’48; Varsity Swimming ‘48, '49; Varsity Track ’48, 49; Rifle Club 48; Glee Club '48. Rollicking, frolicking Georgey has a piercing voice and a lively personality, which have kept us all on our toes. He can be quiet, too, when he's hitting the books for a big test the next day. No matter what happens though, he's almost certain of being a second Eddie Arnold, chasing Filipino Babies over Buckhill Falls. Albert Townsend Ray Al” Entered 1947 386 Bedford Road, Pleasantville, New York St. Lawrence—Varsity Soccer, Captain '47, '48; Trinity-Pawling Times '48; Trinitannus '48, '49; Rifle Club '48. Al is always pleasant and always present whenever math homework is being discussed. If anyone is ever in need of a blind date, Al will always be willing to help out. Ask Mike Johnson, he knows! 24 William Tracy Schneider •'Bill- Entered 1947 404 East 55 Street, New York, New- York Williams—Valedictorian; Cum Laude; Varsity Baseball, Manager ’48, ’49; Trinitannus, Associate Editor '48, Editor-in-Chief '49; Trinity-Pawling Times, Editor-in-Chief '48, '49; Student Council, Secretary-Treasurer '49; Dance Committee '49; Classical Record Club '48, '49. This is the class brain, w-ho holds behind those limpid eyes quite a store of facts and undoubtedly many blurred images of Trinitannus pages. Instead of enumerating his activities, let's just say the guy runs the place when Mr. Dann isn’t around. He doesn't do a bad job, either. Lawrence Holden Shatford Larry- Entered 1947 41 Stuyvesant Ave., Larchmont, New York St. Lawrence—Varsity Football '47, '48; Varsity Hockey '48, Co-Captain '49; Second Team Baseball '48, Varsity '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '48, '49; Trinitannus '49. Trinity-Pawling's answer to A1 Capone is likeable and laughable Larry. His midnight raids on Don Wahl’s cassino have struck terror into the hearts of corridor masters. He's asked me to announce here that he will act as official bookmaking agent for all Trinity-Pawling Graduates. 25 Clement Frederick Ward Fred Entered 1948 Pawling, New York Hamilton—Second Team Football '48; Varsity Basketball ’49; Varsity Baseball ’49. Freddy is one of fair Pawling’s few representatives at the big school on the hill. His speedy legs and winning smile have won him a place both athletically and socially here at T.-P. He's another fellow who can get you a date as dances approach and other girls say sorry. Donald Frederick Wahl Don Entered 1947 64 Walker Avenue. Morristown, New Jersey Middlebury—Salutatorian; Cum Laude; Varsity Soccer '47, '48; Varsity Hockey, Manager '48, '49; Track '48; Spanish Club '48, Secretary '49; Glee Club '48, '49; Trinity-Pawling Times '49. At this writing, the seemingly quiet and hard-working Don is under suspicion of being the ring-leader of all subversive antifaculty movements, and it is doubtful whether he will graduate except posthumously. In truth, he’s really a square guy who gets his good marks by applying himself to his studies. 26 Roger Thomas Whitburne Whit” Entered 1948 22 Grove Street, New York, New York Yale—Second Team Football ’48; Varsity Hockey ’49; Trinity-Pawling Times ’49; Trinitannus, Activities Editor '49; Tennis '49; Photography Club '49; Glee Club '49. The outstanding list of activities which Roger has compiled in his single year at Trinity-Pawling shows the immediate popularity which he gained. The life of the party on the third floor and one of the mainstays of the French Table, Roger has one of the finest and most alert senses of humor in the school. William Albert Wilson Bill Entered 1947 140 Rich Ave., Mount Vernon, New York Denison—Second Team Football '47, Varsity '48; Varsity Swimming '48; Wrestling '49; Varsity Baseball '48, '49. Bill has the personality of a bear when playing football or wrestling; yet, he's probably the friendliest member of the class. One loud bellowing How ya doin', kid? has lifted the eyelids of many a seven o’clock sleepwalker. He's a smart boy who managed to get out of Math Four before his average went in minus quantities. 27 TRINITY-PAWLING CLASS OF 1949 HOLDS 10th ANNIVERSARY PARTY; REUNION HELD AT THE SCHOOL (The following is a reprint from the New York Herald Tribune of June 8, 1959.) PAWLING, N. Y., June 8, 1959.— This afternoon, the twenty-eight graduates of the outstanding Class of 1949 returned to Trinity - Pawling School for their class reunion. After ten years, many of the boys have made great progress in their respective fields. The school prepared for many days to receive these cherished alumni, and all was ready. The first former Trinity-Pawling student to arrive at the gala party was Sterling Blair. Sterling managed to get the trustees of Dartmoth College to give him the day off. He is the coach of basketball at Dartmoth and the second in charge of leaf raking. As a large 1935 Ford roadster stopped in front of the school, out stepped Lenny Bowman and Bernie Bogoslofski. These two illustrious graduates are working together again, and they run the biggest and only penny arcade in East Hartford. They also play football for the Simsbury Slackers every fall. An old rickety school bus stopped at the door, and inside were found maestro John Gillette and his six sons. They have their own dance band now, and they are currently appearing at the Astor Roof in New York. Arriving on the Pawling Flier of the New York Central after a three hour journey were John Judge and Bill Kierstead. John, after playing hockey for six years with the Rangers, couldn't bear to leave the ice, so he is now an ice attendant at Madison Square Garden. He has become a very close friend of Bill, who has gained a high executive position. He has been promoted to the head of the Garden beer and ice cream vendors. He also played hockey for five years with the Bruins and was a football star with the Boston Yanks. An old hay wagon arrived at the door, with Mike Johnson driving. Mike said that he is now a Gentleman Farmer and that he has recently invented a mechanical device which feeds his chickens in the morning so he can sleep an hour later. Dr. Clarence Dunn was the next alumnus to arrive at the school. Clarence graduated from medical school but soon gave up his practice. He wanted to sell his new reducing formula to the public. His famous motto, See what it did for me! has been heard along Broadway from Times Square to Columbus Circle. He has described his sales campaign as highly successful. A large new chauffeur-driven sports roadster couldn't make it up the hill, so its occupant walked the last few yards, and it turned out to be Braxton Nagle. Brax is now the head of the largest exporting house in the east. His chief products are cheese and other dairy products. At the same time, A1 Ray arrived. He arrived at New York by plane from Aruba last night. Becoming confused by the complications and red tape of this civilization, he settled down in Aruba, where he follows a peaceful hobby of drawing the things he would like to have. Another noted celebrity to arrive was Conrad Kohlheyer. Connie is now the outstanding comedian of the East —east of New York, that is. He is currently appearing with Gillette's boys in New York. Another group of arrivals included George Quinn, Don Wahl, and Bill Wilson. George has opened his own gym, and according to latest reports, he is giving Stillman's strong competition. His success is not without reason, however, for among his champions are the two graduates accompanying him. Gorgeous Will Wilson, the heavyweight wrestler who 28 has the outstanding record of being undefeated, is one of George's regulars. Big Don Wahl is now the president of the New York Bouncers Union, and he is currently employed by some of the finest clubs in New York. Also an author, Don recently published his book on Sulphur----------, a new drug. Between these enterprises, Don is doing very well. One of the flashiest men to arrive all afternoon was Randy Merrill, who has really been leading a life of Riley. He is the owner of Billy Merrill's Diamond Clover, and he is the director of his own floor show which features a line of fifty girls, all Randy's personal friends. One of the unfortunate events of the afternoon was the inability of Doug Binney to be at the reunion. Doug wired and said that he was unable to attend for he is spearheading his third revolution in three years in Guatemala. Everyone was surprised to see Bill Kruge arrive with the afternoon mail. No—he wasn't in a package, he was delivering. They finally started Rural Free Delivery in Pawling, and Bill got the job because of his extensive experience. With a slow but deliberate stride and a big smile, Edward Crocker walked into the lobby and gave those present a brief account of his progress during the past ten years. Ed has finally become successful. He is now an executive at the Second National Bank of Elmira. An informed source said that he is the eighth vice-president. Next to arrive was a moderately prosperous looking Bill Schneider. Bill said that after college he tried working, but a good friend gave a copy of The Man Who Came to Dinner. After reading this play a couple of times, Bill learned a few new tricks and hasn't worked a day since then. Arriving with Schneider was Roger Whitburne. Roger tried advertising, importing, writing, entertaining, and snow shoveling, but none of these seemed to please him for he thought they were too dull. He is now the ringmaster of a large circus which is appearing in New York. He managed to get the afternoon off by saying that he was going to look over some new animals for the menagerie. In a cloud of dust and backfires, Dave Lott and Lloyd Liebes arrived in Dave's new car. Dave has been smashing midget racing records throughout the country for the past ten years, but having become bored with record breaking, Dave has settled down to the mild pastime of racing the parkway police up and down the Merritt Parkway. Lloyd is now a top-flight executive. He is the head floorwalker in the largest department store in Los Angeles. The carnations dry up too quickly, is his only complaint. Harry Molwitz arrived in the company of Ralph Bates. Harry is the president of the Molwitz Motel chain which stretches from southern Maine to northern New Hampshire. Luckily, Harry is a successful doctor in the winter, which makes up the deficit of his motels. Ralph used to be a very successful swimmer, but he decided to abandon this in favor of being an instructor in the use of a new type of water wing. Robert Anderson was among the later graduates to arrive. He was well received, however, and he said that he had just become a partner in the well-known travel agency of fippum, Jippum, and Howe. Another noted celebrity to arrive at the gala reunion was Thomas Perkins. Tom, the eminent historian, is well known today in educational circles for the completion of his short but precise twelve-volume history of the Battle of Bull Run. He also spends part of his free time writing book reviews for the New York Times. Considerable comment was aroused upon the arrival of Larry Shatford. Larry told his interested classmates that he has become the Assistant Headmaster of a B. T. O. boys' boarding school in Hubbards. The last to arrive was Fred Ward. Fred was the host to the group, for he returned to Trinity-Pawling as Work Program supervisor after Mr. Darling was struck by a snow shovel. 29 AS WE SEE OURSELVES Most Typical Trinity-Pawling Man Done Most for Trinity-Pawling.

Fourth row—McCollum, Townsend, Bell. FIVE 34 FIFTH FORM THE Fifth Form, with its consistent cohesive vitality, is somewhat of a riddle. The Juniors are staunch individualists, but at the same time there exists a spiritual unity among them. They have stuck together in pressing times and their independent talents have found many new activities to relieve the routine of the schedule. Besides backing original groups, such as the Quartet, the Amateur Actors, the Society of Jazz Critics, and the Sunday Back-to-Nature Movers, the Fifth Form has given ardent and pushing support to existing activities at Trinity-Pawling. A few statistics will reveal the encouraging extra-curricular possibilities of the Senior Class of ’50. Seven members of the starting Varsity Eleven were Fifth Formers. The class claimed fifty per cent of the Soccer Team and five first-stringers of the undefeated Second Football Squad. Three Juniors were on the first five in Basketball, and seventy-two per cent of the squad were eleventh graders. Two outstanding swimmers and a hockey star live on the second floor south. Baseball, track, and tennis have again received an enthusiastic Junior turnout. These are only sports. The three directors of the Photography Club are Fifth Formers, as are three of the Snack Bar's four executives; the same is true about nearly half of the Glee Club. Pick a club, any club. One cannot but see an epithet to go with each face as he looks over the class picture. Pete Afanassieff, quick-witted and ever smiling, earnest on the football field. Tennis player or swimmer, Roy Harvey, popular in every connection. Bill Mead, gay, agile in basketball and on the dance floor. Pete Scheinman, rabid follower of pugilists, constant source of energy and information. Chan Moser, avid lover of boats and carpentry. Football vivacity and good nature more than compensate for Bill Hancock’s stature. Hugh Dunphy, scorer of six hockey goals, ready and encouraging laugher. Though light, a dazzling back, spirited and easy-going Jim Barnard. Don Gaston, industrious Indian rubber man” of the wrestling team. Pole vaulter, photographer, Tom Henderson, scrappy athlete. Enthusiastic football center and busy dance committeeman, John Alderton. Skilled and supple diver or hard-hitting back, Jack Bastine. Don Dorn, sparkplug of the Second Team quintet, quiet and sincere. Ed Draffin, Irish tenor with an earnest value of friends. Allan Sheffield, vigorous and concerned in his imitations of Doak Walker or Dizzy Gillespie. Dan Budd, of writing, blocking, and Greco-Roman wrestling fame. Well coordinated in three sports, Ron Woods, the shy smile inspiring friendship. Serious in his efforts, with time for humor, Joe Rice, aggressive line backer. Chuck Wright, football line stalwart, good athlete and pal. A1 Manchester, shutter-bug par excellance” whose arduous efforts made the Annual and good-natured humor. Diligent manager and swimmer, Dick Featherstone, with a laugh for memories of California or Louis XVI. Cheerleader and hookshot artist, Evan Andersen, a proud Bronxvillian. Talkative and joking Jim Andes, the Jack Benny, good fun in general and well-liked by his classmates. Affable Jordan Ploch, intent on improving as a fine swimmer. Pete Frankel, always of easy-natured countenance, adept in soccer and basketball. Garrulous and comic, Bob Rafelson, supporting many interests, an amiable line bucker. Writer and trackman. Bob White, lively spectator athlete. Woody Cornell, wrestler and talented skier, hard worker with a likable accent. Big, raw-boned Frank McCollum, the driving tackle, the wrestler, expounding the merits of Tay-xus. Dwight Townsend, no-hit pitcher and high-scoring guard, the droll Frog to his friends. Dave Bell, baseball enthusiast, a dependable ■ backstop, big lighthearted guy. These are the illustrious individuals. The Fifth Formers who stuck together paradoxically, who cheered at ball games, who rallied around a good idea, and who trained much of their effervescent spirit to progressive, purposeful work. Their contribution to the school had been impressive. 35 First row—Knoll, Bryant, Lckas, Chambers, Nobbe, Mookas, Thomas. Second row—R. Todebush, Rogers, Maclntire, Stanley, Foster, Simon, Coghlan, Pierre, Kane. Third row—Vollmer, Ada, Arditti, Craig, Cook, Tennant, TenBroeck, Owens, Clinedinst. FOUR 36 MUM Mill rT 'HE crest of this year's fourth form might very well be a golden octopus on a field ■ of blue. This would do no more than signify the many school activities in which the Sophomore Class have participated. The three-star banner of school life representing athletics, scholastics, and extra-curricular activities has been carried aloft proudly at all times by a goodly number of knights. The school's athletic teams were strengthened by the support from the Sophomore players. In the fall, Alex Ada, John Bryant, Dean Lekas, Ralph Todebush received soccer letters. Pete Foster was the Soccer team’s manager. Ward Stanley was the only Sophomore to play Varsity Football. Chuck Craig, John Tennant, and Frank Maclntire helped the Junior Varsity Football team to an undefeated season. The midget team was sparked by Pete Mookas, Gene Knoll, Fred Simon, and Rick Nobbe. During the winter many Fourth Formers were present on the teams. Rick Nobbe, Gene Knoll, Andre Pierre, and Charlie Coglan, were substitutes on the hockey team. Alex Ada played first string Junior Varsity basketball. Pete Mookas, Ralph Todebush, Pete TenBroeck were among the First Five which led the Third Team basketball squad to an eight game undefeated season. The Fourth Form muscle men: John Tennant, Frank Maclntire and Dick Clinedinst participated in the athletic program organized for the wrestling team. Bruce Owens, Chuck Craig, and Fred Simon were valuable to the swimming team. In swimming the Fourth tops the school. They were intramural swimming champions. Fred Simon tied with Allan Sheffield, a Fifth Form contestant, for individual scoring honors. Durno Chambers and Gene Knoll are the two Sophomores who excel in spring sports. They received varsity letters in tennis and track respectively. In scholastic ability, Form Four rated second brightest in the school. Throughout the year an increasing number of Fourth Formers' names were seen on the Honor Roll. Most continual members of the H Society were Nobbe, Pierre, Foster, Kane, Ada. Owens, Artditti, and Coghlan. Chief among the club joiners were Alex Ada and John Tennant to whom go the laurels for being the most active members of the Fourth Form in school clubs. James Thomas was the Glee Club’s accompanist. The Fourth Form was represented in all of the school's extra-curricular activities. But now the banner is furled, not to be flung aloft again until next year when these valiant knights will bear it again in an effort to surpass the results of their successful stride this year. 37 First row—Cunietti, Coons, Burns. Savage, Daugherty, P. Todebush. Second row—Willis Leahy, R. Fisher, Simmons, Calvert, H. Fisher. FORM THREE THE members of this year's Third Form were outstanding in their scholastic and athletic achievements. At least one boy was on the Honor Roll at all times. The Freshmen were represented on every midget athletic team. The Third Form boys possessed a great deal of school spirit. At every major athletic contest one found the Third Formers doing their best to support the team. The most popular boys in the class were Bob Burns and Peter da Mook Mookas. The best scholar was Bobby Fisher, and the best athlete was Jerry Fisher, with Bob Burns, Tommy Savage, and Pete Mookas all doing outstanding work in the athletic program. Tino Cunietti was the only boy who made a Varsity team. He played right wing in soccer. Then, of course, there is Bob Simmons and John Calvert, who were injured in the middle of the season, both J. V. football players. Honorable mention goes to Joe Coons for his construction of the basketball scoreboard and his aid in decorating the auditorium for the school dances. Clate Willis deserves praise for his fine playing on the Midget Football Team. Doc Daugherty could always be counted on to do a good job when a soccer substitute was needed. Doc cooperated completely in carrying out the activity program which the Glee Club planned. Thanks must be given to Mr. Schofield and Mr. Olmsted for their fine guidance as the masters of the Third Form corridor. The boys on the third floor have had a grand time together and hope that they may have just as much fun together next year as Fourth Formers. 38 Left to right—Randall, Noble, Daniels, Marryatt. FORM TWO npHIS year the Second Form is smaller compared to last year’s class. They have done an excellent job of maintaining the traditions established by their predecessors. The eighth grade boys are noted for their loyal support of all school activities. They have all obtained high scholarship and citizenship ratings. Perhaps the most popular member of the Second Form is Lloyd Daniels, better known as Wee Wee. Lloyd is known for his manner of speech and amiable disposition. During the winter term he was a member of the Midget Basketball Team. Arthur Marryatt, who came to Trinity-Pawling in the middle of the school year hails from the Bronx. It is Art” who makes the discussions in History Class very stimulating. His activities included membership in the Woodworking Club and participation in the athletic program as a member of the swimming team. Charles Noble, Tuck to the student body, calls the rolling hills of Glen Rock, New Jersey, his home. Tuck” led his Form scholastically. He has participated wholeheartedly in the activities of the Photography Club and the Glee Club. He showed excellent sportsmanship on the Midget Football Team and the Junior Varsity Swimming Team. One of the best known members of the eighth grade is little Hank Randall. His permanent address is Westport, Connecticut. Hank” gained the distinction during the football season of being the pride and joy of Varsity Football Team as their waterboy. 39 FAMILIAII QUOTATIONS 'Cut the corn! Granted, but . .

In the middle of October, the elections were held in the respective forms for members. The Sixth Form has two elected representatives, the Fifth Form has one, the Fourth Form one, and the combined Second and Third forms one. The administration appoints one member to represent each the Sixth, Fifth and Fourth forms. This year, Edward Crocker and Bernard Bogoslofski were elected to represent the Seniors, and William Schneider was appointed. The Juniors elected James Andes, and Ronald Woods was the administration's choice. The Sophomores elected Durno Chambers, and Richard Nobbe was appointed. The Freshmen and the Second Form elected Jerry Fisher. At a special election the student body elected Edward Crocker president. At the first meeting, the Council elected Bernard Bogoslofski Vice-President, and William Schneider Secretary-Treasurer. The influence and the power of the Student Council has grown extensively during the year. As their first duty, the councilmen were given control over the study halls when faculty meetings were in session. Through their Council, the students gained many privileges. Ten-thirty lights for Seniors and the right to use the lobby doors when going to chapel were among these. Many of the smaller complaints of the students have been handled by the Council, and the problems have been solved. The Council appointed the Dance Committee, which has run the dances this year, which were hailed as successes. 42 Seated — Johnson, Dunn, Krupe, Bttsi-n e I s Manager; Schneider, Editor-In-Chief; Crocker, Advertising Manager; Whilburne, Kohl-heycr.

THE TRINITANNUS THE Trinitannus this year was organized early in October, and the first business to be started was procuring advertisements. This was one of the most important jobs to be done, for the ads pay for the book. Under the direction of Business Manager William Kruge and Advertising Manager Edward Crocker, ads were solicited and subscriptions sold. Almost at the same time, boys were asked to start taking informal pictures for the annual, and Connie Kohlheyer was appointed photography editor. After the first staff meeting, work was begun on the literary portions of the Trinitannus. Under the co-ordination of William Schneider, the Editor-in-Chief, the various departments were organized, and they started to function. Michael Johnson was the Senior Editor, and he was responsible for the information about the Sixth Formers, the Senior write-ups, the prophecy, and other details pertaining to the graduating class. Under Roger Whitburne, the activities were written up and the various clubs and groups were all organized in this section. Clarence Dunn was in charge of the execution of the Sports Department, and under him, statistics were gathered, seasons reviewed, and articles written. All the work progressed during February, and when the deadline approached in March, there was the last minute rush of making the entire book fall into the form in which it now appears. The Trinitannus this year provides a volume containing not only the formal record of the Class of '49 and the various activities and sports, but in its humor and informal sections it contains a collection of pictures and sketches that will remind any reader in the years to come of the familiar scenes and happenings of this year at Trinity-Pawling. 43 Varsity [ Elected tS 1949 ' - :--- Z IH W nt Countcll Tnnrty-Pawling tlcueu ' Beats Salisbu °eCOrs , 0 Pawl ve ca „ iv.- sunk • R H v%W’ '• ' c '’ iW«at� «4 YOO ' ....... s,Rt,„KHlW „«e ’ .-I- „ wns Berkshire t a.,,.H„. r6ur„ fr vCV s.t.� e -v - -v ideation Extended ;e% To Hopkins , S es, Bastine, R ’-W,’ 1 V '' « «•$ A „,, rxCvVO Main Hall is Redecorated; «� Evened a ) e s'toirn .

TRINITY-PAWLING TIMES THE Trinity-Pawling Times, the bi-weekly school paper, has had three principal purposes this year: to inform, to entertain, and to provide a lasting record of the main events of the year as they have occurred. In addition to the news items concerning sports, clubs, school news, and other extra-curricular events, there were a number of feature columns which provided an informal commentary on all phases of life at Trinity-Pawling. The Times was organized during the early days of October, and the editorial board was appointed. The staff was divided into three main divisions. The Sports Department was under the supervision of Sports Editor Robert White. This board covered all official athletic events during the year and the columns of the sports page provide an accurate record of all games. The feature board was controlled by Feature Editor Michael Johnson. This group turned out Creaks from the Bullwheel,” the paper's very entertaining humor column, and Sport Slants,” a feature which went beyond the scope of the regular sports articles and gave its readers bits of unpublished inside news. Spotlight” contained Coming Events and bits of scattered news about the school's clubs and other items which were not included in the other pages. Coming Movies” published brief reviews of all movies which were scheduled to be shown at school, and Compliments To . . . was a column in which the little mentioned actions of individuals were given mention. Alumni News handled items of interest about Trinity-Pawling's few graduates. As Editor-in-Chief, William Schneider was in charge of the News Board which covered all news of a scholastic or extra-curricular nature. Business Manager Clarence Dunn was responsible for the big job of getting ads and handling the circulation. 45 Seated — Binney, Mead, Afanassien, Frankel, Wahl, Dratfin, McCollum.

GLEE CL Eli THIS year, under the able direction of Mr. Lloyd Case, the Trinity-Pawling Glee Club had three successful concerts with other schools. The club's achievements in this field were among the outstanding activities of the school during the year 1949. All of the thirty' boys that comprised the Glee Club were very cooperative, and not only did they enjoy this year’s work, but they gave great entertainment to the faculty and the student body. On March 4, the Glee Club journeyed to Waterbury, Connecticut to have a joint concert with St. Margaret's School for Girls. This was followed by an informal dance. The second recital was with Drew Seminary. Drew's Glee Club came to Pawling from Carmel, New York, and this affair was formal. A dance followed the concert, and refreshments were served. The third was with Westover School of Middlebury, Connecticut. The Glee Club's large repertoire this year included many numbers which required only boys' voices. Other songs were learned which demanded female accompaniment. Some of the songs that the Club most enjoyed are the memorable Oklahoma!, Now Is the Hour, Stout Hearted Men, Coming Thru the Rye, It's a Grand Night for Singing, I Got Plenty of Nuthin’, and What Shall We Do With a Drunken Sailor? Conrad Kohlheyer, Randolph Merrill, John Gillette, Frank McCollum and Charles Craig were appointed by Mr. Case to a Concert Committee. John Gillette, elected president of the Glee Club at the beginning of the school year, acted as Chairman of this committee. The duties of the group were to plan the refreshments and organize the dances that followed Trinity-Pawling’s home concerts. 46 THE PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB WITH all of the necessary equipment supplemented by the efforts and private apparatus of its members, the Camera Club has improved by leaps and bounds since the first shutter clicked at the beginning of the year. Its enterprising board of directors, A1 Manchester, President, Roy Harvey, Vice-President, and Woody” Cornell, contributed a large number of skillfully developed ideas to the stacks of good pictures which kept the darkroom constantly bulging. Of these shots perhaps the winter scenes, action shots of the hockey and basketball teams, the skiers, and the soft, snow-contoured still lifes of the school grounds were the best. In addition many fine serious and informal portraits and group pictures were taken. Directing its efforts as an organized unit, the club went on hikes around the campus and helped arrange the pages of the Trinitannus. The club joins in applause for Manchester and its ambitious supervisor, Mr. Thompson. Mannie has achieved an amazing record over the past two years. He has taken an incredible percentage of the pictures used in the school publications and has contributed much time and work to his hobby. Mr. Thompson has revealed plans to raise funds for new and more advanced equipment. Under his and the executives' guidance the organization continues to prosper.

Many new boys were admitted to the club, and by Christmas the maximum membership quota was reached. Officers were then elected. Vivacious Douglas Binney was unanimously elected President. Quiet and efficient Donald Wahl was selected Secretary, and prudent Bill Mead was chosen Treasurer. Mr. Drew, a former student of foreign languages at Middlebury College, and Mr. Webber, a former professor of Spanish at Colgate, were fully qualified to direct thc-club. Many times throughout the year it was their inspiration which made the students eager to outline a program which would aid them in learning more about the Spanish peoples. This year the organization acquired a dubroom. A vacant room on the fourth floor was turned over to the use of the members. The boys cleaned and furnished it in hopes of perfecting a continental atmosphere. They made this room their rendezvous every Tuesday evening. A brief business meeting was held, and then every member participated in a discussion. The two most outstanding activities of the Spanish Club, which were aimed at accomplishing the goals for which the club was organized, were the presentation of Spanish movies and the organization of a Spanish Table in the dining room. The movies increased the boys' knowledge of Spanish customs, and the table, where only Spanish was spoken during the noon meal, was helpful in increasing the students' Spanish vocabulary. 48 THE DANCE COMMITTEE W HEN the Mid-Winter dance was first planned, the Student Council appointed a Dance Committee to handle the running of the event and all the details of the weekend. The five members were appointed from among the Council’s members, and the Committee was divided into smaller divisions, each of which was to have a specific function, and members were permitted to enlist the outside help that was needed. Ed Crocker, as chairman, had the job of organizing the entire affair, and under his direction, the other three committees functioned. The decorations were under the supervision of Bernie Bogoslofski. With the aid of the faculty wives and a group of boys, the Valentine’s Day theme of the weekend was beautifully carried out in the auditorium. Ronnie Woods and Jim Andes were in charge of refreshments, and working together with Mrs. Kelton, they saw that the teas as well as the punch and sandwiches for the dance were served. Bill Schneider was head of the Entertainment Committee. The band, the scheduling of athletic events, the menus, and the sleeping plans all came under this department. When February 19, the date of the dance arrived, the auditorium was beautifully decorated in the red and white colors of Valentine’s Day. Tables surrounded the dance floor, and refreshments were served in a corner of the room. Lester Lanin s Orchestra played the music, which literally made everyone want to dance. The guests were entertained over the weekend by a Swimming Meet and Varsity and Second Team basketball games. A scheduled hockey game was cancelled because of the warmth. At the chapel service on Sunday morning following the dance, the Trinity-Pawling Choir and Mrs. Weeman sang, and after dinner the same day, there was a chance for the boys and their dates to go downtown and see Pawling before the girls had to leave for their homes. 49 Left to right—Draf-fin, Nagle, Anderson, Frankel, Harvey, Townsend, Afa-nassieff. Mead. CIIOII! THE Choir was organized for the purpose of leading the congregation in singing the hymns in the Sunday Chapel sendee. Before the Choir was organized the congregation often sang much too slowly and found it difficult to keep with the organ music. There was a definite need for a group to lead the student body, in order to attain a more perfect harmony. Mr. Case was responsible for organizing just such a group. From the Glee Club were chosen two basses, Dwight Townsend and Peter Afanassieff, two baritones, Pete Frankel and LeRoy Harvey, two second tenors, Braxton Nagle and Robert Anderson, and two first tenors, Edward Draffin and William Mead. The boys met once a week to rehearse the numbers which were to be sung the following Sunday. The activities of the eight singers were not limited to leading the singing in chapel on Sundays. On holidays and at various school functions the choir gave excellent performances. At the chapel service, the Sunday preceding Thanksgiving the group sang The Thanksgiving Hymn accompanied by Mrs. Weeman, who sang the descant. On the Sunday preceding the Christmas vacation, the Choir sang Christmas carols at the chapel service. At the Mid-Winter dance, the group, accompanied by Mrs. Weeman, sang The Brother fames’ Air. On Easter Sunday, Christ The Lord Is Risen Today was sung by the eight boys. 50 Seated—Leahy, Perkins, Bowman, Kier-stead, President; Bo-jjoslofski, Lott, Cu-ncitti.

RIFLE CLUB THIS year the Rifle Club, working assiduously for many weeks, converted one of the barracks into a rifle range which conforms with the National Rifle Association indoor regulations. The aspirations of last year's rifle club materialized! The club finally had the facilities necessary for an active program of training in rifle marksmanship. The club's initial membership quota was filled by the boys who obtained high scores in examinations which tested one's experience with firearms. These boys were responsible for the construction of the new range. Every day the earnest artisans devoted a part of their free time to the project. The backstop was erected, the windows boarded, new lights installed, and a club room arranged. After a month of hard work the job was completed. The sharpshooters then crowded the range every Monday and Thursday night where they strived to improve their scores. Bill Kierstead, president-elect, was always ready and willing to train boys interested in qualifying for admission to the club. Three factors were responsible for the success of the Rifle Club. One, Mr. Heironi-mus’ excellent job of supervising the construction of the range and guiding the club through its infantile stages; two, Bill Kierstead's organization of an interesting and worthwhile program which aided many to become good marksmen; and three, the club members' complete cooperation in carrying out the regulations of the strict system of discipline. 51 The Woodworking Club Seated—Vollmer, Manchester, Kruge, Henderson, Craig, Gillette.

At the close of the season Trinity-Pawling had victories over Greer, Kent, Darrow, Millbrook and also avenged a bad beating by Gunnery the previous year. The team’s two defeats came from Taft and undefeated Berkshire. The first game of the season was played against Greer School on home ground. The score at the end of the Greer contest stood at 20-0 in favor of Trinity-Pawling. In the second game of the season the teams met strong opposition from Taft School. Taft used a T formation and had quick opening pass plays over the center of the line which proved to be very fatal. The Trinity-Pawling players met defeat that afternoon by the score of 20-7. Kent School was host to T.-P. the following week, and the team returned to their winning ways by trouncing the Kent Seconds 19-6. This game was highlighted by Lambert’s powerful line plunges and Bowman’s breakaways on the outside. Trinity-Pawling proved this year that they were ready to take on the Kent Firsts. On Saturday October 23, Trinity-Pawling reversed last year's close defeat by trouncing Darrow School 21-6. In this game the team's defensive play proved to be steady and the offensive also improved quite noticeably. The team inaugurated a new system of defenses based on a five man line which worked very well. On the road again, Trinity-Pawling journeyed to Millbrook School and upset a favored team 1 3-6. Bowman’s passing as usual was highly effective and both touchdowns were set up by his accurate tosses. Vicious tackling by the line backers, Blair, Shatford, and Wilson continually thwarted the strong offense of Millbrook. In the most spirited game of the year the team repaid Gunnery, to the tune of 22-6, for their stinging defeat of last year. Gunnery met a very alert Trinity-Pawling team as is evident by the number of interceptions, recoveries, and a safety which the team acquired. Fine running by backs Bowman, Kierstead and Molwitz kept T.-P. in Gunnery’s territory most of the afternoon. In the last game of the season Trinity-Pawling played Berkshire School in Massachusetts and lost 34-7. Berkshire had a great asset in several fast breakaway backs who were responsible for runs of 50, 75, 80 yards which all resulted in scores. To give one an idea of Berkshire's strength, T.-P.’s seven points were the most scored on them this season. Fine games were played by Quinn, Wilson, Wright, and Bogoslofski. Trinity-Pawling had a fine team this year and hopes it will continue throughout future years. 57 First rou—Frankel, Wahl. Kohl hey cr. Mead, Ray, Captain; Binney, Cunietti, Daugherty, Coghlan.

However, the team held all its opponents to low scoring games. On Saturday, October 2nd, the team traveled to Gunnery to play the first game of the season. There was no scoring during the first half of the game, but T.-P. showed a slight edge over its opponents. However, early in the third period, Gunnery tallied both of its scores to go out in front 2-0. In the closing minutes of the same period, Doug Binney scored T.-P.'s only goal with an assist from A1 Ray. There was no furhter scoring and the final score was 2-1 in favor of Gunnery. The following week the team encountered Berkshire on its home field and met defeat. During the first half T.-P. outmaneuvered them, but in the third quarter Berkshire broke through the defense to score the only tally of the game. On the 23rd of October, the team played Forman, again on their own field. At the end of the first half, T.-P. had obtained a score of 2-0. This was a significant fact, as it was the first game in which the team had scored in the first half. However, in the second half the team showed weakness, not scoring again but still remaining on the offense. This game was an excellent example of teamwork as both the line and backs worked in unison, and the goalie, Alex Ada, repulsed the attacks of Forman. The first goal was attributed to Bill Mead and the second to A1 Ray, who headed the ball through to score. Following the Forman game, T.-P. encountered Kingswood and was defeated 3-1. Pete Frankel was the only one to score for Trinity-Pawling having an assist from Connie Kohlheyer. On Friday, November 5, the team traveled to Darrow to play their team. They played defensive ball, and Dar-row scored in all periods except the third to gain a 4-0 victory over T.-P. The following week, T.-P. met Trinity School’s soccer team. T.-P. started out very well and kept the ball in enemy territory during the whole first half but was unable to score. In the second half, most of the play was still in enemy territory, but T.-P. was unable to score again and the game ended in a 0-0 tie. The overtime had to be called because of bad weather. The last game of the season was played at Taft in Watertown, Connecticut, and T.-P. lost a hard fought game 5-1. The game was played on a very muddy field and the team could not quite get a grip and start rolling. T.-P.’s only tally was credited to A1 Ray, high scorer and captain for the year. Before each game Coach Palmer appointed a Senior as acting captain. They were A1 Ray, John Gillette, Connie Kohlheyer, Clarence Dunn, Randy Merrill, Bill Kruge, Don Wahl, and Doug Binney. 59 Seated—Woods, Ward, Bogoslofski, Blair, Captain: Sheffield, Mead.

This winning record can be attributed mainly to three factors: several high scorers, good team play on both offense and defense, and good reserve strength. Much credit must be given to Mr. Dunbar for helping produce this fine record. For the first game ot the year the team traveled to Hartford where they met an excellent Trinity College Frosh team and were beaten. After Christmas vacation, the team played three games before mid-year exams. In these games T.-P. beat Pawling High, Salisbury and Jesse Lee. Bach of these games was won by eight or more points, but more important is that the team began working as a closely knit unit. In beating Jesse Lee by 35 points the Varsity ran up the highest basketball score in the history of the school, 52 points. The next three games were losses, and although in two instances the score was high in favor of the opponents, T.-P.'s spirit was never broken. In the third game Trinity-Pawling lost to Kent by one point. This game with a little luck might have gone the other way. Of the following three games T.-P. won one and lost two. The team beat Salisbury in a well played game missing one of its regular starters. T.-P. lost its next two games to two very powerful teams, Trinity and Hackley. In the Trinity game the team held its own in the first half at the end of which the score was tied 23 all, but T.-P. tired in the second half when Trinity’s potent offense started to click. The high point of the season came when Trinity-Pawling defeated a good Berkshire team during the Dance Weekend. This was surprising because Berkshire held victories over some very fine teams, but even more surprising was the fact T.-P. beat them by eleven points. The team then won games against weak Wooster and Greer fives and a fairly strong Darrow team which had good height. These games were well played and Trinity-Pawling's offense capitalized on a slack defense to outscore their opponents quite handily. In the Wooster game Trinity-Pawling scored 20 points while holding Wooster scoreless in the first quarter. In the concluding two games of the season the team split, winning one and losing one. The team beat Millbrook by 7 points on Millbrook's home court. The loss came at the hands of an old, well drilled Kingswood team which had several outstanding shooters. Bogoslofski was high scorer for the season with 179 points. Townsend, Blair, and Woods were runners-up with 113, 80, and 70 respectively, for an average of 11 % points a game. Blair was elected captain by the members of the squad after the final game. Seated—Knoll, Wright, Nagle, Judge, Anderson, Kierstead, Co-Captain; Shatford, Co-Captain. Standing—Wahl, Manager; Coghlan, Pierre, Dunphy, Whitburne, Nobbe, Mr. Palmer, Assistant Coach; Mr. Thompson, Coach.

Playing a total of nine out of a scheduled twelve game program the team emerged with a record of six wins against three losses. The fortunate proximity of an artificial rink at Norwalk, Connecticut, enabled four of these games to take place. It was at this rink that the squad opened its season and notched its first win in a five to three victory over Jesse Lee. After a week of practice at South Kent the team suffered successive setbacks at the hands of Canterbury and South Kent. At this time in the season as many as four neighboring schools were traveling to South Kent to make use of the only available ice in the area. Following another win over Jesse Lee, Trinity-Pawling finally played before a sympathetic crowd at its home rink. On successive days the team defeated Wooster and the Kent seconds. Although the Wooster game was played under poor conditions, the ice was fast for the Kent game and Trinity-Pawling showed a fine passing attack combined with some good shooting. In the second of three games played with Canterbury the men from New Milford won out in a closely contested and hard fought game. After another win over Wooster, Trinity-Pawling closed out its season with a most satisfying and well earned victory over their two time conqueror, Canterbury. Following a rather shaky start, the team showed its ability to win by taking all but one of its last six games. The team's improvement is depicted very well by the scores of its three games with Canterbury, three to seven, three to five, and three to two. While lacking depth, the team produced a very capable first line. Bill Kierstead at center had a fine year, leading the team in scoring with seventeen goals. He was followed in the scoring department by John Judge, the right wing who netted seven. The two left wings rounded out the goal getters. Hugh Dunphy came through with five, while Bob Anderson caged one. Backing up this line were Chuck Wright and Brax Nagle. Chuck played much better hockey this year and Brax always turned in a good showing at right defense. Larry Shatford in the goal, played his usual good steady game, as his string of one and two goal efforts indicate. His average of 2.7 goals per game is also a fine one. Last year it was very cold but there was too much snow. This year there was no snow but it wasn’t cold enough. At this rate the law of averages should come through and reward the Trinity-Pawling hockey team of 1950 with a season of ideal playing conditions. 63 Seated—Ploch, Quinn, Bates, Captain: Molwitz, Henderson, Craig. Standing—Fr. Wceman, Coach; Simon, Perkins, Owens, Crocker, Bastine, Gillette, Manager. VARSITY SWIMMING Trinity-Pawling 12 Trinity-Pawling 25 Trinity-Pawling 39 Trinity-Pawling 29 Trinity College’52 58 Hackley 30 Canterbury 42 Hopkins 36 64 T HIS year’s swimming team was a great deal better than their record indicates. One of its great handicaps was the lack of depth due to the size of the squad. Because of this, most of the men were swimming in two events and one or two in three events. Despite this and other handicaps the swimming team worked hard and enthusiastically throughout the entire season. On the 15th of January, the poolmen went to Trinity College where they met the freshman team. They were very badly beaten by the score 58-12. Ralph Bates won the only first, taking the hundred yard freestyle. He also placed second in the fifty yard freestyle event. In the second meet of the season, T.-P. lost to Hackley by the score of 30-25. Ralph Bates won both the fifty and hundred yard events and established new pool records in both of these. Jordan Ploch improved his time a great deal in this meet and took first in the hundred yard backstroke event. T.-P. also won the medley relay with Ploch swimming backstroke, Harry Molwitz swimming breaststroke, and George Quinn swimming freestyle. The times of the team in general were greatly improved in this meet. At Canterbury on the 12th of February, the team was defeated by the score of 42-39. At this meet Bates again stole the show when he won both the fifty and the one hundred yard freestyle events. With the female element present in the person of the girls here for the dance weekend, Trinity-Pawling bowed to Hopkins by the score of 36-21 on February 19. Harry Molwitz placed a second in the forty yard freestyle event, and Bates won the hundred yard freestyle with a time of 56.9 seconds. Ploch and Bastine placed second and third respectively in the one hundred yard backstroke. Bruce Owens placed second in the breaststroke event. After a medley relay team of Molwitz, Ploch, and Bates won that event for Trinity-Pawling, the result of the meet depended on the result of the next event which was the freestyle relay, which T.-P. lost. This was the last dual meet of the season. At the Trinity College Interscholastics Trinity-Pawling took eleven points when the medley relay placed second, and Bates took a third in the hundred freestyle event, while Ploch took a fifth in the backstroke. 65 First row—Perkins, Bogoslofski, Woods, Alderton, Ward, Blair, Wright.

The 1948 Varsity Team is an excellent example of this. The nine had the best team record of the year, eight wins and four losses, which can largely be accredited to the solid efforts of pitcher Ned Killeen and catcher Jim Brantley. Possessing a vast store of rule-book and strategic knowledge, Jim executed many pick-offs and disected plays. He was an outstanding defensive backstop, and when he began to wear his glasses at bat he became a valuable power-hitter. Ned was probably the main figure on the diamond last year. His jovial superiority over rival batters and his easy-going temperament had a calming, unifying influence on the team. Though not a great speedballer, he disappointed many a hopeful Ty Cobb with his sharp curve ball and a classy array of pitches tossed with near-perfect accuracy. Ned had an earned run average of about 1.25, and he struck out eighty-eight batters. Ned began the season at Greer, in Arctic weather, with a two hitter. The team won four straight, scoring thirty-four points to opponents' three. Townsend, slugging first baseman, Woods, base-stealing shortstop, and Lou Dommerich, hard-hitting center fielder, were early season stars. Of the three, Townsend, with all his two-base hitting power, and Woods, whose summer training should have helped him in all departments, return as first and third basemen. Though Ned lost close games to Gunnery, Wooster and the Trinity College Frosh, with better luck they could have been victorious. Trinity School alone beat the ball players decisively (5-0), in a game in which less errors and better breaks probably would have won. John Judge, who promises to be a starting pitcher this year, proved his worth against South Kent. The right-hander gave only one run. The hardballers followed up that victory (3-1) with wins over Salisbury (7-4), Canterbury (4-2), and Darrow (15-4). Lou Dommerich batted .429 to lead the hitters. He was followed by Norm Johnston, curve-mauling third baseman (.385), Killeen (.333), right-fielder A1 Sheffield (.286), clutch-hitter Red Daniels (.282), and hustling second baseman Bill Ashland (.278). The club average was a thumping .271. Ron Woods led in runs scored (12) and stolen bases (23). Jim Andes, Willie Wilson, Bob Anderson, and Chuck Wright are some of the other promising members of last year's squad who will fight for 1949 positions. 67 First rou—Dunn, Merrill, Rafelson, Harvey, Chambers.

In the first six meets T.-P. suffered 6 losses, tallying only four separate games in all six meets. Wally Barrett, last year's number one man, won his first match at Storm King. Clarence Dunn and Pete Fulton captured their doubles match to lose a close meet by a score of three-two. In the next three meets the Kent Seconds, South Kent, and Canterbury won all the matches in each meet. However, at Berkshire the boys began to loosen up, and Bob Rafelson and Pete Fulton took their single matches in closely fought contests. For a while it looked as if Trinity-Pawling might win its first meet. But the doubles were defeated quite badly, giving the meet to Berkshire by a score of 5-2. A week later the team traveled to New Haven to play Hopkins. Wally Barrett took his match 6-2, 6-3. Clarence Dunn won 6-2, 6-2. Durno Chambers, number three took his match along with Fulton, Rafelson, and Harvey. LeRoy Harvey and Rafelson also won the Trinity-Pawling first doubles match and the team went home triumphant with a 7-2 victory. This was an impressive score as T.-P. had captured all the single matches. The following week, Wooster took the meet with an 8-1 victory. Pete Fulton, playing a fine game of tennis, won T.-P.'s only match. However, Dunn, Chambers, Rafelson and Harvey took their matches to three sets apiece. May 20 marked the big contest between the New Yorkers and the Pawlingites. On paper both teams were quite evenly matched. Dunn played one of his finest games of the year to win 6-2, 6-2. Fulton, whose feature point was his fast serve, aced his opponent twelve times to win 7-5, 6-4. Rafelson exhibited fine tennis to win over Ranny Merrill, one of this year's hopefuls, 6-4, 6-4. However, Trinity won all the other singles and the doubles to take the meet 6-3. In a return match with Canterbury, to whom the team had previously lost 7-0, Rafelson defeated his opponent to tally the only score of the meet. Rafelson had lost in the first encounter, but this match proved to be much different, and he came from behind to win 2-6, 6-4, 6-3. The following week the whole team showed great improvement by taking their last meet against Kingswood 6-3. LeRoy Harvey played a fine game to win 7-5, 8-6. Dunn, Chambers, and Rafelson breezed through their matches to pull out into the lead 5-1. Rafelson and Harvey were the only victors in the doubles. This year the team had four returning lettermen and hopes to have a successful season. The missing positions will be filled by Ranny Merrill, Bruce Owens, and Pete Frankel. 69 First rou—McCollum, Molwitz, Bastine, Henderson, Anderson, Knoll, Sheffield, H. Fisher, Afanas-sieflf.

Captain Joe Callo, an excellent performer in the mile and the half mile, galloped through the entire season undefeated. Hank Buttlemann, who was the decathlon champion of Trinity-Pawling, excelled in the 220 yard dash, the discus, the broad jump, and was a great asset to the team. Always a big threat in the low hurdles was David Nobis. Dave was a great help to the team and was continually picking up points for Trinity-Pawling during the season. One of the greatest assets to T.-P.'s track team was Robert (Tiny) Neill. This big fellow often hit forty feet in the shot put, and with his uncanny way of pitching the discus, often gained first place. Harry Molwitz ran very well in the hundred yard dash and added great strength to the relay team. With his boundless effort, Harry should hit the '49 season with great success. Jack Bastine, who was the sole pole vaulter for Trinity-Pawling showed tremendous talent in this field. John Gillette, the able quarter miler, did a persistently fine job and was a strong member of the relay team. Gene Knoll, who ran the mile, did an excellent job and was a great asset in the meets. Also highlighted on the team in the high jump and broad jump was Jordan Ploch. Robert White mastered the discus and should do a fine job this season. Dan Budd also starred on the team, working well in the hundred yard dash and the shot put. In the most exciting meet of the season, Trinity-Pawling vs. Trinity, Joe Callo, T.-P.’s star runner, came through with excellent form to win. Everyone on the track squad worked hard, but no one worked more persistently than the manager of the track team, Richard Mattson. Dick's endless efforts helped to make the track season an enjoyable and prosperous one. With the excellent coaching of Mr. Weeman, the 1948 Track squad was a team of which Trinity-Pawling could be proud. 71 First row — Whit-hurne, A rd i tt i, Chambers, Afanassieff, Bastine; Ward, Hancock.

SECOND TEAM FOOTBALL THE second team had the distinction of being the first undefeated team in Trinity-Pawling's history. Under its captain-elect, LeRoy Harvey, the team's defensive star, the Jay Vees” played a steady, winning brand of ball. The team in only 4 games scored 80 points to the opposition’s 18. They were noted for their team play rather than any emphasis on individualism. However, who could forget Jack’s kicking and vicious blocking; Freddie’s flashing speed and passing ability; Rafe’s” savage plunging for points and yards; Pete’s signal calling and miracle pass catching; or the stubborn, driving, concrete forward wall. In the first encounter of the year the team took on a hard driving Gunnery eleven. Both teams were evenly matched until the second period when acting Captain Jack Bastine scored through the middle of the line. After this, both clubs were kept from scoring again and the final score was T.-P. 7, Gunnery 0. The next game was with a fast, tricky Canterbury team. On the opening play of the game Canterbury scored but failed to convert. Trinity-Pawling scored on a long march in the second quarter and made the conversion. Canterbury scored again late in the third quarter but again failed to convert. In the closing minutes of the game the Trinity-Pawling eleven clicked for a tally, but Bastine missed the extra point. Acting Captain Afanassieff did a splendid job of keeping the team together and driving them on to win 13-12. The next two games were scoring holidays for T.-P., defeating Millbrook 34-0, and Wooster 26-6. In these last two games of the season T.-P.’s plays ran very smoothly. Beautiful passing by Bastine and spectacular running by Ward, not to mention the thrilling receiving by Pete Afanassieff. However, not all the credit should go to the team itself. A lot of praise should go to Mr. Stickney for his patience and his emphasis on hard driving. He made the team a first class ball club.

I) TEAM FOOTBALL UNDER the able guidance of Coach Schofield the Midget football squad had a good season this past year. It won all but one of the games it played and had some outstanding players who gave their best to win. Jim Barnard was an all around backfield star as were Pete Mookas, Gene Knoll and Hugh Dunphy. The line had some outstanding men in the persons of Pete Todebush and Jerry Fisher. These men should make very good Varsity material in the years to come. The squad won 4 and lost 1. Incidentally, every one of the wins were shutouts. They beat Greer in the opener 6 to 0 with Barnard scoring the only touchdown. The squad then lost to Canterbury by a score of 13 to 0. The next three games were won in a row over Millbrook, Jesse Lee and Gunnery in that order. The scores were: Trinity-Pawling 42, Jesse Lee 0; Trinity-Pawling 38, Millbrook 0; and Trinity-Pawling 20, Gunnery 0. The squad had 13 points scored on them all season while they piled up 106 points against their opponents. Jim Barnard was high scorer with 51 points, composed of 8 touchdowns and 3 extra points. Pete Mookas followed with 34 points. Gene Knoll, Nelson Rogers, and Pete Scheinman scored one touchdown each. At the end of the year Jim Barnard was elected captain of the team. There were 15 lettermen this year.

Ada, Johnson. Second row—Mr. Stickney, Coach; Hancock, B u d d . Andersen, White, Calvert, Manager. Absent— Arditti. SECOND TEAM BASKETBALL THIS year the Trinity-Pawling Junior Varsity had a very successful season. The reason was that they had a first class club and were guided by an excellent coach. They won eight games and dropped only two. In the first encounters of the season, T.-P. beat Pawling High School and Salisbury by low scores, but they really started rolling in earnest when they beat Jesse Lee 35-8. The Jay Vee's lost the next game to Gunnery’s second string Varsity but managed to win a return match with Salisbury 26-25. In the game with Trinity, T.-P. was beaten by an excellent team, but the seconds went on to wind up the season in a burst of speed by beating Berkshire, Greer, Miilbrook and Kingswood. At the beginning of the season, Trinity-Pawling's team was primarily a fast breaking club with Don Dorn and Jim Andes as scoring forwards who played marvelous ball all year long. Towards the end of the season, however, guards Pete Frankel and Alex Ada worked some beautiful plays and both were effective on set shots. The team's most consistent ball player was Jim Andes with his driving lay-up shots. In the team’s center slot Mike Johnson did a splendid job under the backboards and played an excellent brand of ball as did the alternate center, Evan Andersen. The other forward, Eddie Draffin, was a scrappy player who helped hold the leads in many games. Eddie Arditti, a substitute guard, played well before hurting his foot in practice. With a record of eight and two behind them, the team had a very good season. Jim Andes was the high scorer with 75 points, and Don Dorn was next with 48. Jim was elected captain at the season's dose.

TIII It I) TEA M It A S k E T It A L L THE Third Team was the first Trinity-Pawling basketball team to go undefeated. They had a seven won and none loss record. A word of credit should go to the coach of the team for doing such a job. Coach Schofield took a bunch of boys who had played very little basketball before and molded them into a winning team. The only team that came close to giving the Midgets a defeat was Canterbury, but the players managed to put on the pressure and win by a 34 to 30 count. Bob Burns, who was elected captain, and Pete Mookas handled the ball with such skill that they seemed like sure material for the '51 and '52 Varsity teams. Special mention should go to Jerry Fisher who was high scorer this year with 108 points. With a little seasoning he should become one of the best centers this school has seen. The other two members of the starting five were Pete TenBroeck and Ralph Todebush. Durno Chambers was the sixth letterman. The team scored almost twice as many points as their opponents, having 236 points to the opposition's 173. The Midgets hold the record for scoring the most points in a game. This was accomplished when the team played Jesse Lee Academy. The final count on the game was a 70 to 30 win for T.-P. The team deserves credit for being the first undefeated basketball team in the short history of Trinity-Pawling.

WRESTLING A NEWCOMER on the Trinity-Pawling sports program this year was wrestling. At the opening of the winter sports season there was still no place to work out, and the elite group who now call themselves wrestlers had only a few tentative plans. The job of locating and cleaning up the wrestling room progressed rapidly, however, once it was started under the direction of the coach, Mr. Heironimus. It was decided to use one wing of the old army barracks for a room, and in one hectic afternoon, a conglomeration of old furniture and lumber was converted into a clean and spacious wrestling room heated by three pot bellied stoves. In the next couple of days four tumbling mats were requisitioned from the gym and the wrestlers were ready to start working out. About a week before Christmas vacation, wrestling was in full swing, and as a good omen, the mats were baptized on the first day by a bloody nose, belonging to Gaston. Even in the short week before vacation many were beginning to use basic takedowns, escapes, and holds successfully, and after returning, everyone progressed rapidly, wrestling with the coach as well as with each other. Soon, however, almost everyone was suffering from mat burns of one degree or another, so the team as a whole voted to chip in and buy a mat cover. One parent and many members of the faculty and nonparticipating students also made donations which were greatly appreciated. Although normally a club, wrestling took the place of a sport for those who participated. The team finished up the year with an informal match with Wooster School. Wrestling in the match were Cornell,Dunn, Moser, Lott, Binney, Gason, Maclntire, Clinedinst, Simmons, McCollum, and Tennant. However, Lott and Maclntire were the only ones to win their matches. Everyone fought hard throughout the year and are looking forward to a bigger and better squad next year. 77 78 ADV Cum Laude Turner has repeatedly been honored by schools and colleges in being selected to erect important buildings.
