Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why. yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men - above all for those upon whose smile and well being our own happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are con- nected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own lifeis built upon the labours of my fellowmen. both living and dead, and how eamestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received . - A .

' ' Twenty-six years of students will remember Joe Scalet. He was able to mold either the minds or the bodies of all those with whom he came in contact. The physical education program in particular bears his unique stamp as do all the students who benefited from it. While the students he taught have changed greatly the methods he used to teach them have needed no change, for they are as effec- tive now as they were when he first came to Pem-Day. .a-Ng' ' ADMINISTRATION 711 li.

Campaigne Karl Bricker Almost since its inception, the Pem-Day Board of Trustees has been enveloped by an unintentional wall of secrecy and mystique. In a recent interview with Board Chairman Donald Hall, a new light was shed upon the Board - revealing both its purpose and goals. The primary function of the board is that of a legislative committee, with Hall functioning as the executive. It is ultimately responsible for determining all poli- cies by which the school shall be governed, as well as, ensuring that such policies are properly enacted. The Board hopes that all decisions made are in accord with the opinion of the majority of the total Pem-Day Community, and sincerely hopes that anyone who is in disagreement with the board's decisions will verbalize their views. Although Mr. Hall did not outline any significant accomplishments of the Board this year, he nonetheless imparted the feeling that everything was functioning well, and that an excellent rapport had been established with Headmaster Roger Boocock. It is important to note Mr. Hal1's optimism in regard to the degree of cooperation existent between fellow board members, inasmuch as the Board is a conglomeration of people sharing different viewpoints ranging from conservative to moderately liberal. It is the responsibility of the Board Chairman to unite these varying ideas into one working body. As Board Chairman, Hall states that his responsibility is to coordinate the Board's efforts, rather than to enact executive power in overruling decisions. In conclusion, Hall stated that he firmly adheres to the idea of having both a student and faculty representative to the Board, believing that this allows the stu- dent body eyes and ears in the decision-making body of the school. Perhaps this new addition will help to eliminate the air of secrecy so closely associated with the Board of Trustees. Q50 X, Q 'V ' H ' 0 5 sv, 1 -21 6' V tif'- 1 i U j I have been asked for my prediction on what this year will I find this a difficult assignment, since I am interested and responsible for all facets of the school and its opera- To single out a few is to emphasize them more perhaps nan they deserve to be emphasized. In spite of that danger, shall comment on a few areas. An area of importance to the vitality of the school and its orresponding financial stability is the area of enrollment. erhaps my first goal for the school when I began in the fall 1972 was to see what couldbe done about increasing the enrollment to 500 or more, where it had been in its enrollment years in the late 1960's. I am very pleased say that with e expert job being done by Director of Rick Eisenhart, we went a long way this year fulfilling that goal. If current patterns hold, that goal be achieved by next fall. It is very important that the continue to attract talented and able students, for an part of the education which students receive at will come from the stimulation of classmates who good students. It is exciting to be part of a school that is demand. Our increased enrollment suggests that Pem-Day such a school. An ongoing project for me and members of the faculty and dministration is the assessment of services which are ren- ered to the students, and the facilities which are available o support those programs. We are constantly evaluating new ays to do old things better and new programs which might e introduced. l see this year, my third at Pem-Day, as a ime of reflection about the academic experience for each Roger Boooook student, to be certain that it is as challenging and satisfying as it possibly can be. The quality of classroom experience and the value of homework assignments are the heart of a good education, and the faculty is focusing its energies toward making the Pem-Day experience an even better one. Our upcoming ISACS evaluation in November will serve as a good review as to how we are doing. I am pleased to say that at the beginning of the year the school seems calm and happy, and everyone is working hard toward these ends. These goals are, I believe, at the heart of a good school. - September, 1974 These comments are written as a follow-up to what I have previously written. The year has indeed been a stimulating and exciting one for all of us. At this time it appears that our goal of 500 students will be reached by September 1975. This means that the school will operate with a full enrollment, a healthy position indeed . The ISACS evaluation in November has proven to be a very important event for the school. The committee reported that they thought highly of Pem-Day. They were impressed with the students, finding them alert and interested in what was going on around them, and very supportive of the faculty. The committee was impressed with the faculty and com- mented that they were dedicated, extremely interested in the welfare of the students, and excellent teachers. The very positive comments made by the committee have provided an excellent climate in which the school can make efforts to respond to the helpful suggestions made by the committee. While many of the most significant suggestions would involve increased facilities or increased staff, and their implementa- tion would require additional funds, the committee also made some excellent suggestions with regard to our opera- tions, and many of these have already been implemented. The faculty and trustees are hard at work making certain that the evaluation report becomes a living, working docu- ment. Our goal is to make this report into an instrument for change for the improvement of the school. - May, 1975 Rick Eisenhart The view from the Admissions Office this year has been a very exciting one , and since the Admissions Office is actually Pem-Day's window into the future, my view of things has been doubly exciting. We have added over one hundred new students this year, and as a group, they represent a strong addition to Pem-Day both academically and extracurricularly. It has been gratifying to me to see these boys settle into their new school both quickly and capably, and in so doing, insure a strong future for Pem-Day. As the school maintains its customary high standards and continues to grow in numbers, the positive awareness of Pem-Day in the community also grows and, in turn, strengthens our admissions picture even more. Admit- tedly, our application volume has been increased somewhat by the problems within the Kansas City, Missouri public schools, but this should not in any way overshadow the fact that as long as Pem-Day remains strong we will continue to attract a large number of capable young men each year. With the current crisis in public education, people will undoubtedly continue to search for new schools, and I am confident that Pem-Day will stand as a leader in offering the highest caliber educational opportunity in Kansas City. I foresee no change in our admissions policies or standards, and as I look to the future I can see only continued success for Pem-Day . if ievin Madden Hz Mr. Kevin Madden has important varied responsibilities which affect both stu- dents and the school as a whole. As associate headmaster, Upper School dean of students, and physics teacher, he is involved with more people daily than any other person at Pem-Day. When not teaching his three sections of physics, Madden is constantly involved in meetings to discuss administrative policies and ideas with Headmaster Roger Boo- cock. Madden, who has been at Pem-Day for 31 years, has seen the school and its atti- tudes go through changes. Six years ago the students and patterns of education in general, demanded change , now Pem-Day and its students have studied their situa- tion, enacted changes, and are leaning toward more traditional goals in education. He sees students buckling-down to study so they can try to enter the college of their choice. Also, the school has broadened its curriculum whenever possible to give students extra variety. Madden uses his knowledge of education and students' goals in counselling young men when they need advice concerning courses of study and distributional require- ments. He follows each student's progress to make sure that the situation is under control. Madden enjoys the variety in his work: teaching, counselling, and administra- tion. Because of this combination, every successive year becomes busier and more exciting for Kevin Madden. C. B. Lueck C. B. Lueck does not need to make appeals to alumni, parents, or outsiders to get money . His job is to make sure that the money Pem-Day has is well-spent. lt is a very large job indeed. He fills out Government tax forms and pension plan reports, determines the academic, athletic, and extracurricular budgets, approves needed expenditures or rentals of supplies or equipment for better academic facili- ties, takes care of food service and maintenance contracts, arranges insurance reports and forms, and accounts for every cent spent. If he is not doing one of the above tasks, he is often sharing ideas or learning new ones from other school busi- ness personnel or sharing his knowledge of financial matters with Pem-Day students involved in extracurricular activities. It is a very large and involved job, but Lueck has shown his ability to handle it efficiently and masterfully. -vt Lg.. .. Sheldon Clark Sheldon Clark holds two posts whose functions overlap slightly. As Director of Alumni Affairs, he is the main link between the Pem-Day of today and the Pem- Day of the past. In this area, he keeps alumni informed about happenings at PCD through alumni newsletters and handles gifts from alums to the school. Working together with the Alumni Association, he helped arrange a charter trip to Hawaii for alums and non-alums this year. As Director of Development, he is responsible for orchestrating the school's vari- ous fund drives, such as Parents and Alumni Annual Giving, which help overcome school spending deficits, and also works as a public relations officer in order to present to the parents, alumni, and others the best possible factual picture of Pem- Day without glossing over any faults. In short, what he develops is support - both emotional and financial - for the school. Marvin Van Leeuwen As principal of the Upper School it is my responsibility to see that the Upper School runs smoothly and effec- tively. Much of my time is spent talking with teachers and students and other administrators in a continuing effort to improve the school. It is my job to write the master schedule over the summer, to assign faculty responsibilities, and throughout the year to visit classes and other activities in order to oversee the quality of our programs. Another major part of my responsibility is to talk with parents about their son's progress at Pern-Day: whether it be at mothers' coffees, at Parents' Night, through school publications or personal conferences. This year, for the first time, the principal of the Upper School is also the freshman class sponsor and the individual advisor to each freshman. This involves monitoring the academic and social adjustment of 62 boys. In addition to meeting routinely with each boy, to talk about academic progress, future course selections and possible career interests, extra time is spent with boys who have particular needs. This year, in an effort to develop class spirit and to give the new students an opportunity to get to know returning students, the freshman class took a float trip down the Current River in mid-October. All reports seem to indicate that the trip, in spite of the weather, was an outstanding success. ' Three significant changes in Upper School programs this year were the beginnings of an instrumental music program. the creation of an early morning option C'7:O0 A.M.J to the physical education requirement, and the change from four weeks to two weeks for the January program fWe feel that the dropping of rotating classes and the full concentration on the January Program for two weeks will allow us to keep the good features of last year's program while not losing as much time from the regular academic classesj . As Assistant Headmaster for program and staff, I am frequently called upon to discuss Pem-Day's overall program with the Headmaster both in terms of immediate needs and in terms of long range plans. Ed Wucker As Upper School assistant principal for four years, Mr. Ed Wucker has established himself as the day-to- day administrator and organizer of the Upper School. It has been his job to keep as pleasant an atmosphere as possible among students and faculty, and to foresee any chaotic situations which could arise from sources such as late arrivals, off-campus regulations, phony fire alarms, and waterguns. Wucker does not like the idea of students thinking of him as the Upper School policeman, since he does not look for trouble directly, but merely tries to stop prob- lems before they start by being aware of various situa- tions. However, when he does see fit to pass judgment on a student for his actions, Wucker is always fair and tries to individualize punishments by considering the infrac- tion and the student. This eamest effort on his part for fairness has in- stilled a mutual sense of respect and understanding between him and Upper School students in general. Wucker's time is also occupied by teaching Latin, a subject which he truly lovesg counselling sophomores on academic, extracurricular, and social problems: and establishing administrative policies with Upper School Principal Marvin Van Leeuwen and Headmaster Roger Boocock. This year has gone smoothly for Wucker - he feels that any problems encountered were minor, and that the student leaders of the school have kept other stu- dents interested in the primary academic functions of the school.

This year, we are trying to operate in a responsible democratic manner that best serves the school society. The senate is most certainly a functioning group this year. Procedures are being followed as they should and we do not stray from the prepared agenda. To date all of the following have been acted on in the senate: 1. We have held a student book exchangeg 2. We have sent out, received and reviewed procedures of all clubs and organizations in the Upper Schoolg 3. We have thoroughly discussed the limited number of class representatives in all classes except senior: 4. We have formed an audit committee for the purpose of auditing the organizations and the classes that have finan- cial transactions: 5. We have set up a student exchange program. It is not my opinion as Chairman of the Senate, that the purpose of the senate is to go out looking for business and problems. A portion of the preamble of the Senate states, A school citizen will know precisely through which chan- nels he must work to propose a new rule or amend an old one, and will see the result of his proposal as it makes its way to the final consideration of the vote . - Pat White .-:N-- 455 .

These goals are: To inform - by publishing timely and informative articles on events in and around Pem-Day and letting you know, through our Cultural Calendar, about events of general interest in the Kansas City area. To influence - by commenting on current issues of importance at Pem-Day in our editorials and features of opinion by our staff. Here our goal is for the Hilltop to take a position of leadership in the Pem-Day commu- nity. To enlighten - with special features on various facets of life both on and off the Pem-Day campus, and with columns that provide a changing forum for views from the faculty q Faculty Row J, students 4 In My Opin- ion J, alumni Q Reflections J, and the entire PCD community C' 'Hilltop Mailbag' 'J . And finally, to entertain. This purpose will hopefully be filled in part by contributors to our columns and through feature stories.

It has been a period of adjustment and growth on the part of the students and director. Many of the old traditions have been maintained, but a new sense of musical appreciation has devel- oped. This appreciation has been formed through the hard work put forth in order to make the various aspects of Glee Club successful. Various activities taught the Glee Club to work and perform together for the public. This year's operetta, KISS ME KATE, gave each individ- ual a chance to act, sing, and dance on a professional level. The oper- etta also provided everyone a chance to deal with the frustrations of long rehearsals and frayed nerves. But the results of hard work were evident, and were rewarded by a concert tour to New Orleans. This was the Glee Club's first year under the direction of Mr. Don Rid- dle. As always, a new director encounters numerous difficulties in learning new names and faces, and in pleasing the various musical pref- erences of everyone. With Mr. Riddle came new techniques in direct- ing, along with experiments in modern music. He was also most recep- tive to the Glee Club's desire to bring back many traditional songs. It became important throughout the year for everyone, including the director, to be open to criticism, in hopes of improving the organiza- tion. In general, the Glee Club was a conglomeration of people who learned to work for the group by being able to bend and relate as indi- viduals. - Mark Piedimonte Kiss Me Kate fi?

L Instrumental Music In 1930, a band was formed at Country Day School primarily as support for pep meetings and athletic functions . This year, after many changes and turnovers in the music program, a new band has been formed under the direction of Mr. Don Riddle. Despite its limited initial support, the new band is looking forward to increased interest and expansion in the future to become an inte- gral part of the Pem-Day community. 4 1 an ion wg- .L on .Q 0? , 1 5,4121 1 g': 'LK 1.449 f 1 1 .

I found a new language, a new family, and a new school. With its good and bad sides, this year was a fantastic experience. The courses I took at Pem-Day were at a very high academic level. However, I was more interested in learning about people and their life styles than academics. In the fall, I had the opportunity to become a member of the cross country team. I was quickly accepted and in this way I made many friends. I enjoyed the Glee Club very much. It gave me my first opportunity to sing in a large group. The musical was a very exciting experience and the trip to New Orleans was, in a word, great. I also appreciated the understanding of my teachers for my language difficulties and their help in solving my problems. I was very deeply touched by the opportunity of calling my family at home in Switzer- land , a present from the student body. However, I sometimes miss serious discussions with my friends about social, eco- nomic, or international problems. It was hard for me to appreciate the humor used at Pem-Day. I missed social contact with girls as I had no course at Sunset. I hope that next year's AFS student will take at least a course there. I discovered that at Pem-Day it is easy to meet people, but it is hard to make true friends. When I met people, the label of the AFS student stuck to me. I found this very hard to overcome. I would like people to understand that I am an individual, not just a repre- sentative of my country. Understanding another society, another country, has been a wonderful experience. Thank you Pem-Day for allowing me to be a part of you. Coordination Coordination between Sunset and Pem-Day has been a val- uable addition to the academic potential that each school has. The main objective of coordination is to increase con- tact between boys and girls. Principal of the Upper School Marvin VanLeewen stated, The female point of View is a good addition to class discussion Many valuable things can be gained through boys and girls sharing the same class rooms. This produces diversity in the quality of the classes offered at both schools. One may gain insight from exposure to the different teaching philosophies and approaches to such fields as history and literature. The number of electives that one can choose from also becomes increasingly more varied . Coordinators seem to be content with the present system and want to review the situation before any steps towards expansion are made. Mr. VanLeeuwen commented, We have spent a lot of time expanding and refining our coordi- nate programs. I think we now need to sit back and observe how these programs work. New improvements in course offerings are being made for 1976 school year. The coordinators for both schools have put in much time and effort to make the system advantageous and it seems that we are just beginning to reap the benefits that it holds . ,Q i -A 1 -, -..-,..-.

Providing students with the opportu- nity to expand their knowledge in subjects out- side of the normal classroom fare proved to be the main objective. Several new mini-courses were added to achieve these objectives. The cooking and bread-baking mini-courses were expanded and gained in popularity. In the field of history, courses were offered on Solzhenitzyn's AUGUST 1914 and THE GULAG ARCHIPE- LAGO. as well as a course on the legal aspects of the Watergate scandal. A I The major difference between the 1975 mini-course program and those of previous years was the time alloted for it. Instead of the usual four week period in January, this year's time was shortened to the first two weeks of the month. The Independent Study Program and the Shadow Program continued to receive less involvement and interest than they deserve, as in previous years. In general, the new two-week system was favored by the faculty and students as a com- promise between an ungodly long break for the teachers and the longer period favored by the students in the past. Evaluations of the period this year were favorable, but suggested numerous changes in courses and in the school's atmosphere to make it a more productive envi- ronment in which the student can pursue his or her individual interests.

Vogel Financial Advisor - John Young Photographic Advisor - John Leifer Staff - Tom Bellavia, David Clinton, Roy Crooks, Jeff Jackson, John Fallon, Gary Idleburg, Bruce Palmer Throughout my years at Pem-Day the Helicon has been different things for differ- ent people. For some it was something you wrote for in seventh grade. For others it was something you wrote for if you were one of those people who were searching for reality. In other words there was a general feeling of apathy in regard to the publication. Other people have felt that the Helicon was beneficial for it provided a different side of a student through his published material. This year some who were vaguely interested in knowing what the Helicon was, asked me. I would tell them it was considered a literary magazine. This didn't usually help. A literary magazine is a publication of printed artwork, photography, short stories and various forms of poetry. This particular magazine is specifically for the publishing of material sub- mitted by the students and faculty of Pem-Day. This year has been one of particular hardship for the Helicon. This was primarily due to the inflation of the price of paper and lack of established student writers. There were several underclassmen on the staff who, outside of class assignments, hed never written. In their attempt to offer material, several came up with very interesting work. It is my feeling that the Helicon was not just a stepping stone in the career of many writers, as it had been in years past, but a possible starting point for a few who had never tried writing before . - Lee M.

After graduating seven- teen seniors, the Raider football squad began the season with only five seniors and a total squad of twenty-seven boys. Injury to some key personnel in the middle of our season also added to our despair. We played many exciting games and moved the ball well offensively, but failed to score at crucial times because of mistakes. Our players never gave up and gained a great deal of experience for the years to come. Our Raider team fielded seven sophomore and two junior starters on the offense. On defense most of our team were underclassmen. This can only lead to fine teams in the future. With a fine crop of sophomores moving up from this year's ninth grade and the increase in size of our squad, along with the experience of returning boys , optimism for a fine football season prevails for the 1975 Raider squad . - Leon Flappan The 1974 football season was one of disappointment and frustration for the members of the squad. Lacking experi- ence, talent, and numbers, the Raiders finished the season with nine losses. A VA ln the early part of the season, the gridders appeared to bd capable of having a successful year, but in the opening game against Fort Osage, Pem-Day dropped a tough defensive bat- tle 13-O. The following week another setback was suffered at the hands of the Belton Pirates, 25-15. The defense continued to be the strength of the team, while the offense remained relatively ineffective. When th contest for the shillelagh was held against Lillis, the gridder dropped their third game, 13-7 . Possessing an O and 3 record, the squad would soon mee' their most formidable opponents: Codasco, Pius, and St. Mary's. Although the offense began to move the ball, they' were unable to score due to many turnovers. Thus, in the las six games of the season, only three points were put on th scoreboard Cby Pem-Day , the Visitors had many morej . Despite Pem-Day's lack of success, several players wer named to all-star teams. Senior Conrad Miller and sopho more loe Scoppa were first team picks on the Catholic-Pre team. Scoppa was also named to the All-District 2-A team Juniors Eddie Ryan, Dick Sandifer and Phil Brockingto joined sophomore Chuck Blake and seniors John Fenley an Tom Bednar on the list receiving honorable mention. With a large number of returning lettermen, the 1 Raiders should be victorious. - Tom Bednar TOP: Leon Flappan. Arny Romine, Critch Greaves, David Watkins, Ioe Scoppa.

Not only did the team chalk up several victories, set records, support a team member in state competition, and organize one of the most successful invitationals in the state, but through all the long practice runs, hard work, and tough races that accompany competitive distance running: each member felt a strong commitment to the team and an obligation to give his best to his fellow team- mates. Even though we often wished that we had run a little better or tried a little harder, the freely given pats on the back and encouraging words from each team member made it easier to endure the work and accept the losses. This very support aided cap- tain Chuck Finkle to place high in district and regional competition - enabling him to travel to the state meet in Columbia where he placed nineteenth out of an unclassed field of over one hundred runners. This feeling was also reflected in the Second Annual Pem-Day Cross-Country Invi- tational which attracted over two hundred participantsand differed from most other invitationals by giving away t-shirts promoting the meet, as well as medals and tro- phies, offering a women's and master's race, and awarding special medals to junior varsity runners. It was a tremendous success due to the efforts of Coach Dennis All. The atmosphere was a pleasant one, with 400 athletes, supporters, cheerleaders and bystanders. Quickly becoming a popular festival at Pem-Day, the PCD Invitational will continue growing in successful popularity as the team keeps growing and improv- ing. Only two of the original founders of the team competed on the team this year and they will graduate this year, but the Pem-Day Varsity harriers are now firmly founded and blessed with young talent. - Chuck Finkle ,J Ai.

For the most part, the team handled themselves very well against much larger schools, and had a chance to win every game with the exception of two or three. Our record was 10-12, and, with our relative inexperience, I was fairly pleased with the year. The seniors did a fine job for us this year. Scott Ward, John Fenley and Dave Barnard did most of the scoring and will be hard to replace . We gave our younger players a lot of experience throughout the year and, as a result, we should be prepared to field an experienced, but young, team. I am looking forward to next year. - Bob Gleeson TOP - Dave McGuire, Jay Keller, Adam Smith. Tom Ward. Scott Ward, John Fenley, Dave Barnard, John Shelden, Butch Hataway. Ryan Couchman.

Unfortunately, they only exhibited it in a few games. In the third game of the season, the Raiders defeated highly-regarded Olathe High School before an Olathe crowd of 4,500 . The most incredible victory for the Raiders occurred late in the season at the West Platte Tournament, when the team met St. Joseph Lafayette . The Raiders trailed by 14 points going into the fourth quar- ter, but the team scored 32 points in the last quarter to defeat the second-place 3A team in the state , 70-69 . The team had only two returning senior starters, Dave Barnard and John Fenley. Two other seniors, Scott Ward and Dave McGuire, were also starters throughout the season, but entered their positions with little or no varsity experience. Tom Ward, a junior, started the entire season with no prior experience. Sophomore Ryan Couchman started several games and sophomores Jay Keller and Adam Smith helped immensely by adding depth to the team. Juniors Butch Hata- way and John Shelden showed great promise in the latter part of the season. The 1975 Pem-Day team represented the first varsity season for new head coach Bob Gleeson. Though the team did not match the previous year's record , the team did show its great potential. Next year's team will have a number of players with experience, but will have to face the problem of finding a big man and adequate depth to support him. - Scott Ward Soccer Although the season had been labeled at the onset as one of rebuilding, the soccer team compiled a successful record of 7-4-2. Head Coach Ron Vieling and his assistant Rick Sahakian were faced with the task of building a team around a nucleus consisting of only three seniors and seven returning lettermen, but the underclassman players filled the vacant positions and played as if they were seasoned veterans. The maturity of the team was evident as they struggled against their opponents for the first half of the season, only to rebound the second half claiming the prestige of being the only Kansas City team to defeat a school from the St. Louis area, John F. Kennedy, 2-1. But the season's highlight was the team's defeat of the Rockhurst Hawklets, 4-0 . This year's squad served as a fine example of Coach Vier- ling's excellent career at Pem-Day. He leaves a program that started small but grew to be a powerful and dedicated group of individuals. As a graduating senior and team cap- tain, I can speak for the team in thanking the Coach for giv- ing us the opportunity to extend ourselves beyond what we thought was possible under the stress of athletic competition. - Clint Greenbaum 1 J TOP: Ron Vierling, David Clinton.

Yet the 1975 team was not content to be only a building program. While the young men struggled at times to find their team style, strug- gled to maintain their poise under pressure, struggled with disappointing 1-0 losses, they proved they could play the game well against the best teams. It was this year's team that outplayed and outscored Rockhurst in a 4-0 win, the worst defeat Rockhurst has ever suffered in Kansas City. It was this year's team that broke the St. Louis domination of Kansas City Soccer, defeating John Kennedy High School, 2-1. It was this year's team that saw the individual single game scoring mark broken by Dick Sandifer with three goals against Rockhurst . It was this year's team that saw Pem-Day place its first first-team all- league goalie, Matt Dennis. It was this year's team that elected the first junior to the role of var- sity captain, Mitch Meuller. And it was this year's team that played the last half of the district game against Rockhurst with four junior forwards, three sophomore half- backs, and three junior fullbacks on the field at one time. The team record? 7-4-2. The future? Excellent - and exciting. Of six all-league players, five will return next season. 4 u The seniors on this year's team were excellent players, excellent young men who will be missed: Greenbaum, captain and forward, Cohen, Finkle, Zimmer, Matt Dennis, Goalie David Clinton. But it is the future that must now be dealt with. The youngsters will grow up, Mike Rees and Eddie Ryan will be healthy, and Rick Sahakian will take over. The Ron half of the Rick and Ron Road Show moves on, but Sahakian will be back. Next year it should all fall into place. Next year is what matters now. Experience, pride and the willingness to give over to the success of oth- ers. - Ronald I . Vierling Wrestling From the standpoint of scoring performance, we cannot fairly say that we had a successful season. But, as it has been said many times by many coaches., success is not always measured in wins and losses. We started off the season with thirty wrestlers, which in itself made us all a little optimistic. But with only four sen- iors on the squad, and little experience on the junior level, we had to be very realistic. Probably the most encouraging factor,for the future years is the fact that we had twelve freshmen on the squad . A lack of experience, and the fact that we had several key injuries to some of our wrestlers, did not make things any easier. It is difficult to single out individuals who were outstand- ing, mainly because I feel we achieved all we could with what we had. Tim Sutton, senior captain, had the most suc- cess on our squad. He ended up with a nine-seven record for the year. The fact that we will lose only four members of the squad. and all returning lettermen will have had a year of varsity experience under their belt, is encouraging. The Pem-Day wrestler is at a distinct disadvantage in that almost all of the teams that we faced have wrestlers who started working out in the elementary school level. That means that these boys have three to four years experience before they get to high school. Perhaps a middle-school wrestling program would correct this drawback. I also feel that we are a small school, and a small percent- age of the student body are the ones involved in the toal extracurricular activity program. This means that the per- centage is overloaded and spread quite thin. It is difficult for a Pem-Day boy to completely devote all his energies to one specific activity, whether it's a sport, a musical, or a news- paper, but this is what it takes to have a highly successful program year in and year out. If everyone returns next year, things will start to happen. Most of our wrestlers plan on going to a wrestling camp this summer, which is a must. Mike King will be our Senior Cap- tain next year. , So the squad assures you that the 1976 wrestling season will be one to look forward to! - Bob Beake l04 lwltrf QW 'T' . v. -,. , if -... . . Although the 1974-1975 wrestling season was disappointing in terms of the number of victories, the team gained much- needed experience and learning, which will provide the impetus for future successes. Under the excellent direction of new head coach Bob Beake, the grappleis worked harder than in any previous year, and, accordingly, made tremendous improvements. The Raiders finished the year with an impres- sive win over the Raymore-Peculiar Panthers. Fine individual performances were tumed in by senior cap- tain Tim Sutton, Larry Bates and Killer Chris Blake throughout the season. Next year's team will be guided by captain-elect Mike King. Assuredly, with more experience, the wrestlers will attain great success and soon be one of the bright spots in Pem-Day athletics. - Tim Sutton .Gm wi ' gun- f 'hi TOP - Bob Beake, Craig Dolman, Mike Tutera, John Deweese, Tim Sutton, Larry Bates, Sandy Smith, Bob Shank, Mike Rolfe.

Baseball After winning the State Championship in Class A two years in a row, the baseball team returned to the category of also- rans. Having lost almost all of their pitching strength and a potent part of their hitting power, the ranks were thin in many areas of play . The pitching chores fell to John Fenley and Chuck Blake, who made a fine effort 'during the season. The catching duties were taken care of most ably for the third straight year by Matt Dennis. Co-captains Dennis and Fenley performed with the leadership needed in all areas. Seniors Mike Levin, Larry Bates, and Jeff Brown will leave vacancies that will be difficult to fill next year. Junior Eddie Ryan and Sophomores Chuck Blake, Allan Eisemann and Ryan Couchman will return to form the nucleus of next year's team. Couchman was the leading hitter this year, swinging at a . 847 clip. It was a difficult season to grasp any consistency in hitting or fielding as both cold and rainy weather plagued the team for the entire spring. With several persons playing new posi- tions and others starting for the first time, many mistakes were made early in the schedule. As the weeks went by, the N . 1 players improved in their knowledge and skills of the game. .ff '..' Lf 'I+ I ,L In the viewpoint of the coaches, Mr. White and Mr. May- hew, both felt the effort was always good and the attitude was one that made the season a pleasant experience. - Pat White 4-WA 1 K pen TOP - Pat White, David Atkins, Mike Robinson, Jim Nutter, Ryan Couchman.

This year's track team certainly had that goal in their sights when the season began. The first two meets were won handily by Pem-Day over St. Pius, Hogan, Smithville, St. Mary's and Raymore-Peculiar. The Raiders later defeated St. Joe in a dual, and St. Johns and West Platte in a triangu- lar meet. In the first medal meet the team finished second out of seventeen teams in the Kearney Relays. In the Warrensburg Relays, the Raiders finished first for the third consecutive year. At less than full strength, the team finished fourth in the Knight's of Columbus Relays, while the 880 yard relay team of Phil Brockington, Tom O'Hara, Dick Sandifer, and Jeff Bublitz finished third in the Kansas University Relays. For the fourth year in a row, the team won the Catholic-Prep Conference Meet. From the conference meet it was off to Districts where, for the fourth straight year, the Raiders were victorious, qualifying eight men for the State meet. ln the State meet, the Raiders took the runner-up trophy, missing the championship by one-half point on a controversial dis- qualification for the two-mile run. There were several records set this year. The two-mile relay team of Chuck Finkle, Cliff Graham, Daryl Warder, and Clint Greenbaum, shaved nine seconds off the previous record by running 8:18.9. Dick Sandifer equaled Rich Cro- nemeyer's record of 20 seconds in the 180 yard low hurdles. Dick also broke the long jump record by going 22 feet, 6 1!2 inches in the State meet for a first place. Chuck Finkle low- ered his own school records in the mile and two-mile to 4:2'7.1 and 9:44.13 respectively. Tom O'Hara won the State Championship in the pole vault going 13 feet 6 inches for a new school record .

I feel the success was in a great part duf- to the leadership provided by three outstanding seniors, Clin' Greenbaum, Tom O'Hara, and team captain Chuck Finkle. Clint is one of the most outstanding half -milers in the histor of the school and is a member of three record breaking rela teams. Tom is a fine sprinter, an extremely good relay tea competitor, and Pem-Day's most outstanding pole vaulter Chuck holds two individual school records and is on four rela! teams that have school records. He holds records in the con ference and district mile and two-mile events. These boy were not only fine athletes, but were hard-working and dedi cated.

He's played football for years, but this is his first year on the tennis team and he feels all alone, without any- one to tell him the next play, without anyone to substitute for him, and without others to cover his mistakes. The whole outcome hangs entirely on him , and he knows it. The loneliness grows with the silence of absent audiences. Beyond a stray baseball player on the way to the locker, the tennis player is fortunate to be watched by anyone except his coach - DOI much outward recognition for hundreds of hours of preparation. Good tennis players have an inner toughness I admire. The tennis team this season has been tough and admirable. In its record, it is clearly our school's best team in any sport this year. It did not restrict its competition to schools of comparable size or middling quality, but went after the big- gest and the best, usually pitting our upper school's resources of 222 students against schools with 1,500 to 3,000. Despite such odds, our varsity won all its head to head matches by big margins. In tournaments, the team was second out of four schools in the Topeka Invitational: second out of 20 Iowa, Kansas, Mis- souri, and Nebraska schools at Maryville, second out of 24 schools in the Districts: tied for first of all Missouri high schools fsmall, medium, and giganticj in the State Champi- onships. Space permits only a sampling of individual highlights: George Holden and Jamie Haden, in a strong wind in Mary- ville, scrapped for a stunning victory over Topeka West's number one doubles team. Fred Goodwin worked hard on his game last summer and was our most improved player. Brad Smith and Dave Barnard toppled impressive doubles teams, like the Kansas High School Singles Champion of 1974 and his partner and the third best high school singles player in Missouri this year and his partner. Mike Rees and John Good- win time and again came through, as they had all spring, under extreme pressure in the clutches at Maryville, the Dis- tricts, and finally at the State tournament to prove they are the best doubles team in Missouri and Kansas. The members of the team and the coach unanimously named Tom Hatfield an honorary member of the team. Even for a cautious coach, the prospects for next year are great. Only Dave Barnard leaves us. Henrik Kallen, the incoming AFS student, is reputed to be good. The junior var- sity, the best in a long time with a 9-1 record, returns next year. Intra-squad competitions will be very tough: the aspir- ing will need to improve this summer and next winter. The coaches ulcers are mending fast these days . -Hill Hughes ,fi , . - -1 I .- .- X X-b' LEFT TO RIGHT: Brad Smith, John Goodwin, Mike Rees, Dave Barnard, George Hol- den, Jamie Haden, Fred Goodwin, Hill Hughes.

The three most consistent players were Jim Quinn, Dave McGuire and John Sheldon. The team finished tenth in the William Jewell Tournament and eighth in district competition with a 341 score.

Science Fair Once each year students in the Lower and Middle Schools take to the library to prepare their exhibits for the annual Pem-Day Science Fair. All students from fourth through seventh grade are required to prepare an exhibit for the fair. Above the seventh grade, students may prepare an exhibit on their own time with the projects running the gamut from simple to complex. Four teachers supervised the fair projects: Dennis All, Barry White, Clifford McWilliams, and Craig Maughan. The time spent on reseach and the fair itself is also generally more than is spent at most other schools, according to Maughan. We proba- bly put more emphasis on it fthe fairy than do most other schools, Mau- ghan said , due to the fact that we feel it's important for them to learn how to use the library and learn how to write a research paper as well as to learn how to put together a whole project themselves. One of the main points of emphasis of the Middle School effort for the fair is research writing. Middle Schoolers are given two weeks of class time in the library to study-and do research for their chosen exhibit. The result of this research is compiled in a note and card file. From the file the students prepare an outline and two drafts of a research paper which also serves as a review of all literature used in pre- paring the exhibit. Students are then given class time to perform their experiment and prepare the display board which will contain the results of their experi- ments. The exhibits are taken to the school science fair in the multipur- pose room . From there all first and second place winners and a few selected third place winners enter the city science fair at Municipal Auditorium. , -1 .e fix LXTHJN TA .JRE ...U .JLTS -USION sth Us 1-' .. .4 lo IH lsr NK!

With this commitment we try to plan activities that will be educational, interesting and will allow the student to become involved . The 1974-1975 school year has offered many such experiences: Philharmonic concerts, Young Audience concerts, our own Talent Show, AFS assembly, Learning Exchange, Kalei- doscope, astronomy picnic, Outdoor School, Science Fair, an Evening with Shakespeare, a co-ordinated activities program with Sunset, Spring Sing, our own Ghoul House, Lollipops concerts, Nature Wagon, Outdoor Discovery Program, and trips to the City Hall, the KC Zoo, the Art Gallery, and KC Museum. We cultivate an atmosphere which encourages students to be open-minded and respectful of the opinions of others, while it provides a healthy opportunity for physical and social growthg development of democratic skills and loyaltiesg and participation in the creative aspects of learning . James J . Ryan Philosophy as a whole cannot provide us with the answers to the questions it asks although it may offer a range of possible answers that enlarge our thoughts and assist us in making personal choices. - George Kneller I hope that the educational philosophy of the Middle School has not changed, as it always remains the responsibility of faculty and staff to properly equip the Middle School student to meet the challenges and demands of the Upper School. The curriculum of the Middle School is flexible to the extent that innovations and educational procedures that best serve the needs and interests of the individual are constantly encouraged and implemented. My role as the Principal of the Middle School is to continue to supervise faculty and staff, coordinate both student and faculty interests, act as a liaison with the parental community and devote particular attention to the curriculum and aca- demic counseling. We are a close-knit school community and the principals of the three school divi- sions work closely together as it is our common goal that we do all we possibly can to serve the needs of every single student. 5,2 'U -4 L ' TOP: Jim Spencer.

If I wanted to, I could go to S.M.E. and be dis- satisfied for free. - Senior Pem-Day is one of the more exclusive small clubs in Kansas City. All you need is S2400 to get in COh yes, and a few other entrance requirementsj . - Junior When I first came here everybody bent over back- wards to help me get going. There is a great deal of school spirit here. Everybody seems to pull for one another. I'd be willing to bet that if I needed some- body's help really badly, I could get it. - Senior The students here just don't react. For exam- ple, the independent study program is open to all, but students don't take advantage of it because it requires creativity and imagination, in short, hard work. Most students just take the easy way out. - Senior Sure, there are cliques among the student body, whether it is the drinkers, the dopers, the derelicts or the brains. You don't really react any differently to any of these people, because most of us cou1dn't care less. - Senior 164 ,Ai JT , 'f f Lv . -. 1 W ,g 'I I , ,'-'Vi' '-5.

Scort Nelson. 7 The 1975 Raider is a chronicle and commentary on the academic year to you, but to me this book has very little to do with the 240 pages which compose it. At the beginning of the year, previous editors advised me that the year of dedication that the editors give is, in actual- ity, the same thing as the Raider, that is, the importance is in the product as much as it is in the process. Looking back, l must concur with this feeling . This book has been a humbling learning experience - the only totally new challenge the editors took on at Pem--Day. It has been a frustrating experience as the editors attempted to include the total entity called Pem-Day in a brief picto- rial volume. A reader may react to this volume and may object to the amount of pictorial coverage and the scarcity of copy. While words were important in capturing the year, the editors, due in part to our photographic backgrounds, agreed that a feel- ing was better expressed through a more complete visual medium such as photography. Two themes prevail in this book, representative of my feelings towards Pem-Day. First, we have attempted to maintain relatively equal, or at least proportional, coverage of every aspect commonly associated with the student's life. By portraying the individual interests at Pem-Day and avoid- ing such generalizations as, Pem-Day is a sports, college prep, music, art-oriented school, we hope we have shown the reader that the schoo1's strength lies in all the compo- nents of its entirety, not in any one aspect. I also hope that this outlook will eliminate the conflicts and frustrations that officers and faculty members invariably associate with suc- cessful planning in their area and will bring the PCD commu- nity to the realization that Pem-Day's positive potential and its possible pitfalls are related to equal inclusion of all the individual aspects which compose it. Second , we have intentionally established a theme by the 238 Jim Kaplan selection of the elements of the introduction. We have por trayed a concentric structure in which the students are center of a larger entity called Pem-Day, Pem-Day, in is part of a larger entity, the community. By emph this relationship, we have attempted to show the imp role the school must assume in preparing its students for world which surrounds them. Pem-Day must not perl the sheltered existence to which many of its students accustomed. If we have succeeded in our representation of these concepts, then we have met our goals of speaking to you. reader, and appraising the year. Although the editors been the reporters, you are the subjects, and this is, fore, your book. -Jim Kaplan John Leiier 'Liberty alone breeds giants. Compulsion only kills and estroys . ' ' In em- ut i nal C -Alfred Adler reflecting upon the seven years in which I attended Day, I view the school as possessing many attributes. n analyzing my own progress, attitudes and my,degree of orientation, I feel as though my academic instruction been insufficent, due to nothing less than the antiquated l philosophies to which an apparent majority of 1 faculty adhere. Pem-Day, as a preparatory school, 'I be designed to provide the student with a progressive productive academic environment: complemented pri- by an intellectually stimulating faculty. The faculty treat each student as an individual, striving to help to attain or refine every positive aspect of his personality tors which separate him from his peers, and provide a ly sense of identity. High school, in essence, is simply a maturation process. It is the span of time during which one learns the meaning of or the task of growing up. The task of growing up is perhaps one of the most difficult undertakings in a person's life, for it is a period of contin- ual vacillation during which one searches for the ultimate goal to one's life. It can be a time of depression or a time of elation, but it is most certainly a time when one must be at home with one's self. For it is only from within that man finds the true mean- ing of his life: and it is only when one has found this mean- ing, that he or she can function as a productive part of humanity. This is why it is so essential for the faculty to give a stu- dent his freedom, for it allows him a chance to develop from within. There should be no attempt to limit his imagination, or impose undue obstacles in his path. Above all, the faculty should never attempt to break his spirit, for One can influ- ence another individual best when he is in the mood in which he feels his own rights guaranteed . If one does not adhere to what I have stated , perhaps there is to be found an alternative philosophy - in the anti-intel- lectualism and anti-humanism of Friedrich Nietzsche: Independence is for the very few: it is the privi- lege of the strong. And whoever attempts it even with the best right but without inner constraint proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring to the point of recklessness. I-Ie enters into a labyrinth, he multiplies a thousandfold the dan- gers which life brings with it in any case, not the least of which is that no one can see how and where he loses his way, becomes lonely, and is torn piecemeal by some minotaur of conscience. In conclusion, to quote Immanuel Kant, Freedom is that faculty which enlarges the usefulness of all other faculties. And , once more to quote Adler, Pressure when used in edu- cation, is a double-edge sword. It produces the semblance of adaptation. Compulsive obedience is only apparent obedi- ence. -John Leifer 0 The Teacher as Poet: The Poet as Teacher To define teaching is to define an act of commitment. To define teaching is to define the act of seeing. For the teacher must be a poet, conveying to his or her students the faculty of sight, of perception, of vision. No matter what the subject area, no matter what materials may come under study within a particular intellectual discipline, what the teachers offer, in fact, is not the thing itself but a vision - a glimpse - that particular discipline's part in the great symbolic definition of man that all learning represents. A teacher of mathematics does not teach formulas to be memorized , but instead , demonstrates a symbolic method of defining reality, of defining man's ranging imagination, the capacity to reason abstractly . The science teacher does not offer the thing, but the definition of the thing. The universe will orbit with or with- out men's statement of defining the action. Thus, for men to speak of the universe is in actuality, to speak more of man's mind, of his capacity to define, than to speak of a reality that does not need men in order to continue. Certainly the same applies to history or to the teaching of literature. For what is history but present man's symbolic deeds - perception filtered through man's need to know, man's need to fulfill his own self-image, his own under- standing of where he has come from, where he might go? That nothing is absolute in such a precarious activity as history teaching, is obvious. So also is literature no more than a symbolic conveyance, a symbolic saying of what man is. or might be , or could be. For to describe the persona of a poem is not to make the person, but to offer a symbolic perception of being. To analyze the method by which an author seemsto have breathed life into a protagonist is not to touch the protagonist himself, but to see into the the artist's vision, the artist's perception, the artist's symbol. That the teaching of graphic arts is the teaching of vision, of form and symbol is so self-evident it can hardly be argued. The same is true of drama. of music, of dance. Thus, unless one is content with being a technician of subject matter, one who simply recites symbols that less inquisitive men have agreed to call facts, to be absorbed by students by rote, one must understand that being a teacher is being a poet - bringing a vision to the student. another symbolic possibility by which the student might begin to define himself, his world , his hopes and fears and dreams. The Greek philosophers said the most philosophical art was mathematics. Freud said he was only confirming sci- entifically what artists and writers had been saying for hundreds of years. To learn grammar is to gain both a tool and another defining symbolic insight. To learn numbers is to learn more about man than about numerical systems. To understand the history of man's first cultivation of wheat is to under- stand the capacity of man to imagine symbolic possibilities beyond the scope of real experience. The teacher, then, who would hope to touch the lives of his or her students, must be , in the end , a poet - one with a sense of wonder, a sense of vision, a sense of the symbol. That the particular subject matter the individual teacher may choose to engage is secondary to this more important function, should be axiomatic. - Ronald Vierling ' - Y-'K J '-L11--441 'f':cf.1-1 f:11-mfg.-1 Y gqfjqy-in 1 K. 54- .,,i5,,,,,.,.,:,,.,.,,,,, 31- Jew.
