PHILIP PRICE BOWDEN I can make water wetter than water . All through his three years at Berkshire, Phil has insisted that he could do this. It still remains to be proved. Phil has won the reputation of being a near-genius in both math and science. Phil is not an athlete, but he loves the outdoors and was a member of the trail squad and the maple sugar club during all his three years. Almost every weekend Phil and the boys went hiking on the mountain, looking at nature. The Glee Club and the fire department also were helped by Phil's attentions. If Phil keeps up his present pursuits, Bowdenisms such as water wetter than water may shock the world, ey , 1 Camera Club 10, ll, I2 Glee Club 10, ll, 12 Greensleeves 12 3 if ' Skiing 10, ll, 12 2 1' 2 1 1' 3,, Trail squad 10, 11, 12 'Y xx Phu, Physical Glee Club 10, ll, 12 Student Council 12 Football 10, ll Varsity basketball ll, 12 Varsity track 10, ll, I2 Dance Committee 12 Pete, Mole PETER CRANE BROWNING Since his entrance in the sophomore year Pete has spent his time either studying, running for Mr. Myers, or promoting Allentown. Although not always successful in the latter en- deavor, Pete has done very well in the First two. He consistently maintains a high average and has been outstanding on both the basketball and track teams for the past three years. Pete has also distinguished himself as a leader by being elected vice- president of the senior class and a senior council member. His excellent qualities of leadership should help him through Colgate and then in a career as a business executive. 27

DAVID SHUMWAY BARRETT This Buffalonian has succeeded in almost everything he has tried at Berkshire. Dave continued to maintain a good average all through the year, despite differences with Mr. Stevens in Latin 4A. Dave has also gained a position of prominence on two of Berkshire's teams. He was second string center on the football team and also played the Erst line in Varsity hockey. '4Fog, one of Dave's nicknames, is well earned. During his four years at Berkshire Dave has gained the admiration and friendship of his class as well as of the rest of the Sehool. Life's struggles should not be too hard for Dave, provided he comes out of the 'ifogi' occasionally. Green and Gray 10. ll, I2 Trail 12 Varsity football ll, I2 Varsity hockey 10, ll, I2 lrack ll.

Bob is best known for his fabulous mathe- matical aptitude, which he uses every day against Mr. Eipper - usually with great success. Even though Bob was new to Berkshire last fall, he quickly gained the acceptance and friend- ship of the School. Bob most often was seen in his room, working hard for the next day's classes. His few moments not devoted to studying were used well on the athletic field, where he played on both the football and basketball teams. His talent, coupled with hard work, will undoubtedly make Bob a fine engineer. 26

ANTHONY WAYNE BUCKINGHAM If one stood in the post office lobby after a meal, one might see a streak coming from the dining room and headed toward the butt room. Chances are that this would be Tony. Aside from being a stalwart member of the fog chamberv on Allen I, Tony has become distinguished in many other fields. He is on the editorial staff of The Green and Gray and has written for both The Dome and The Trail. Athletically, Tony leans toward managerial positions and has governed the soccer and hockey teams this year. Tony's diligent application in whatever he does will lead him through college and later life with great success.

At 10:01 each night a iigure strolls down Buck I with a card pad in one hand and a pencil in the other, waiting to catch any unwary freshman who may be up after lights. Controlling the ninth graders is only one of thc numerous jobs that Dick has successfully undertaken. Dick plays soccer, hockey and tennis, is a member of the press club, and works for The Green and Gray. When not at the School, Dick terrorizes his home town of Newark, New York, in his Model A Ford or on water skis. Present hopes point to a career in aviation or engineering for this diligent student. 28
