It has been said that one lives and learns. We are the living and, strictly speaking, we are the learning. The graduating class of 1936, in keeping with an unwritten law, the spirit of which pervades us seniors at this very moment, some time ago set aside funds for a special purpose. That purpose, conceived in mere appreciation but now executed in sincere gratitude, is, in a sense, the only tangible way by which the seniors can show their appreciation of what Blair has meant. Contrary to what some people think, your young Mr. America is not a frolicsome, insensible fellow. He does have a serious side and he is supremely conscious of the value of education. Thus it is that we who are about to graduate have approached these ceremonies with feelings tinged with regret and a sense of loss. We wonder if, as adults old and grey, we shall find again the comparative happiness which has come to us during these years. Most of life ' s major experiences first come to the growing young man rather than to the mature oldster. When, for instance, shall there be again precisely the same satisfaction which came to us when as boys we first tasted the fruits of a victory well won ? About to enter a hard-boiled and commercial world, shall we ever be so free from the sordid and hypocritical, the cheap and shallow, the impure and cynical ? So it is that we, in the act of saying that we gained much from Blair, far more, indeed, than we gave it, present this gift to a school which, though we think well of it now, will grow increasingly dearer as each year passes. A secret feeling possesses us that we are going to be thankful eventually for all that Blair has contributed. With this gift, therefore, we leave both a remembrance and a safeguard, for in giving the school something to remember us by, we can say that we did not go forth from Blair totally unappreciative of its educational contribution to our lives. (lllctss 39tstnry AT THIS TIME it has been the custom to pause and review the activities of the Senior Class during the past year, comparing our successes and failures. Having now reached our goal, we wish to express our regrets upon leaving these familiar halls, and our sincere appreciation of the help Dr. Breed and the faculty have given us. We, the eighty-eighth class, the Class of 1936, officially organized on May 28. 1936, when we elected our class officers for the coming year. It was not until the next Fall, however, that any further organization of the class took place. On the 20th of September of this school year, the first meeting of the class was held, augmented by 40 new members. At this time proctors were chosen, and the customs of the senior class were explained. A week later, in another meeting, a committee was chosen to select a class ring. The social climax of the year was reached on February 21st when the Mid-Winter Prom was held in the gym. On Friday evening forty-three couples danced to the music of Jul ian Woodworth and his orchestra. The class returned from Spring vacation ready to begin the last leg of the jour- ney towards graduation. Elections to the Halls of Fame, as well as the dedication of the Acta, were voted upon in a meeting held on April 16th. In the last week of May the annual senior banquet, enlivened by several spirited speeches, was held. The class then settled down to the serious work of the final exams. And now, even though some failed to qualify for a diploma, the whole senior group expresses its sorrow at leaving, and pledges its loyalty and sincere thanks to its Alma Mater. Twenty-Bight (Glass JBiU WE, the unsurpassable Class of 1936 ol Blair Academy, being of sound mind and in fairl) good health, arc well aware of the inevitable end of our glorious career within these portals, and do herebj bequeath certain of our numerous and re- nowned qualities to the more unfortunate members of the lower forms. FIRST — To Dr. Breed, our Headmaster, we leave our sincere gratitude and ap- preciation for his kindly interest, his excellent advice and kindly criticisms, along with our humble sympathy of the task bi fore him with the Class ,,f 1 37. SECOND — To Dean Freeman we leave our most sincere thanks for his unfailing i Hurts and assistance in guiding us through Blair and for preparing us adequately not only for college but for Lite. THIRD — To the Faculty, God Mess them! we leave the pleasant thought that no more will they be put to shame bj our superior comprehensions. F( URTH — To the Class of 1937 we have the anticipation of thoroughly bene- fiting our inspiring examples and the hope that they will strive to equal our high standard of scholarship. We also leave our stately dwelling Ark with its interest- ing bulletin I iard display . FIFTH — To Poppy Cage we leave our sinceresl hopes that the coming occu- pants of Ark will be as innocent and as law-abiding as their big brothers have been. To Bill McKcan, Buzz Gould ' s intellectualism, responsibility, and ready grasp of situations. To Cootie Corwin, Augie Evans ' suaveness and sophisticate! poise along with his leisurely manners, To Bottle Bloom, Sleepy Lewis ' s placid contentment and happj outlook along with that old proverb. If at first you don ' t succeed, try, tr again. To Arnold Zimmerman. Jim Vbgdes ' wisp-like silence and eye-fluttering inno- Cf nee. To Jack Castor, John Richard ' s profound diligence, unassuming quietness, and d( vi ition to bis hooks. To Donald Reinicker, Ted Fenstermacher ' s booming eloquence, Napoleonic diminutiveness, and home town pride. To Frank Casa-Nova Hernia. Walk Watkins ' glad hand-waving finesse and his intricate and artistic body manoeuvers. To Richard Braman, Gus Kellogg ' s ability to dominate the situation and to in- fluence everyone with his beaming smile. To Carl Becker, Horace Mann ' s gift of gab, esnscialh with the opposite sex. We do hereby appoint as lawful executor of this, our last will and testament. Bob Hack, who has lulled many of our memhers into awe by tales of bis feats and wonder. In witness whereof we, the Class of 1936, do affix cur hand and seal on this sixth day of June in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-six. Ttvcnty-Nine 3lug (©ration THE evolution of our present-day educational system, with its culmination in schools like our own Blair Academy, has been rather a continual struggle. Per- haps we may appreciate this institution more after examining the chronicles of the past, and after discovering from what meager opportunities the great universities have developed. The seeds of education growing in the Old World during nine centuries of prog- ress were transplanted in America sixteen years after the Pilgrim Fathers landed on New England ' s rock-hound coast. So eager was the thirst for knowledge that, though their resources were miserably limited, the first settlers made constant sacrifices to overcome their handicaps. On October 28, 1636. a few learned men together with several colonial legislators convened on the peninsula now known as Boston, and laid the educational corner stone for a continent. One farmer contributed some sheep, another a few bushels of wheat, a woman donated some cloth — and in that experiment of Harvard College, which this year is celebrating its tercentenary, was education first introduced to this land. Because of the scarcity of money in the struggling colonies, its first students were permitted to pay the small amount of tuition in the form of farm products. Sixty-five years later, in 1701, the neighboring colony of Connecticut was fired with similar ambition, and from out the assemblage of ten ministers there came the founding of that institution which we know today as Yale. Each one placed upon the table the best books of his own scant library, saying as he did so. I give these books for the founding of a college in this colony. New England continued to carry the intellectual torch but both North and South followed who ' e-heartedly. The heroic success of American schools and colleges is now apparent, but one must not forget her early endeavors for existence. The early fight of education for survival in an uncultivated land is directly com- parable to that of the Ivy, which we are planting today. This five-leafed plant will again undergo, as it has done since the days of Egypt and Greece, a process of aspir- ing to unknown heights. From day to day, throughout wind and storm, this small plant will continue to exemplify to all mankind a spirit of unsurpassed courage and determination, as it climbs upward to the yet invisible goal, while clinging still to its source of life. And as we plant this symbol of Beauty, Loyalty, Action, Independence, and Reverence, may there be aroused in each of us an irrepressible ambition to exalt the ideals which have been kindled within us. With this ivy, a representation of classic Oxonian learning, we permanently pledge ourselves never to sever relations with Blair. In tlir real world we enter. May zvc guard thy ideal well; As our ivy be our memory, — .-lima Mater, dear, farewell. Thirty (lllje ;)3ropliecy THE other night while busily engaged in a profound perusal of Vergil ' s Aeneid, I was awakened from my slumber by a piece of plaster falling from the ceiling, which, after depositing itself mi my perplexed pate sent me into a sort of stupor. As I sat collapsed in my easy chair 1 saw huge oceans of clouds gathering in the dis- tance and realized at once that 1 was to lie treated to an apparition. At first I was tempted to light the oncoming vision hut. deciding that what was good enough for Sir Launfal was good enough tor me, 1 yielded to. its soporific charms. When tile mist cleared I found myself between two crutches on the corner of Forty-second Street and Broadway of a well known American city. The old Times building triangle had been transformed into a gaping aperture and as I peered into its depths I perceived Bob Hack and Bull Miller blissfully working the controls of two huge silver plated steam shovels. There was a fiendish grin on Bob ' s face for his last scoop was twice the size of Miller ' s. Bull in desperation sent his shovel swooping into the wall of dirt before him and as the steel teeth bit into the ground there was a shriek and Sleepy Lewis, the Blair mummy, came tumbling from the mound. Lewis was muttering something about his insomnia, but upon spying an empty park bench he was off like a crippled turtle. As I slowly followed bis retreating form I encountered Wil Springer. Dancing about Wil as he cranked his hand organ were Blight Wight. Bruce Nichols, and Cheery Boy Mastin. Wil told me that as soon as his monkey was released from the hospital he was giving a performance in Carnegie Hall. His Simian assistant was under the personal care of Doc Mantlet and Sawbones Inangst, It seemed that the dear little fellow bad seen F ireball Evans and Junior F.astright pass by in all their sartorial effulgence and had suffered a broken heart. L ' p to that time he had considered himself the best-dressed monkey in town. As I listened to this inter- esting news a band consisting of Hot Shot Yount, Sonny Greer, Rem Nichols, and Dave Shull paraded down the street and took a stand in front of me. Mistak- ing them for tin Salvation Army I had already plunged my band in my pocket in search of the penny 1 saved the day I skipped church, when my move was halted by the sudden appearance of H. J. Kreitler. Big Ed Sabol and Ki ' ler Barnitt in the hell of Yount ' s tuba. Leaping to the ground clad in his world famous swimming attire Big Ed went through his inimitable soft shoe routine and then rejoined his two companions who had been furnishing the vocal background for bis rerpsichorean endeavors. I turned to go but found my way b ' ocked hv a hue ' hu ' k nriss Not recalling any building that close to me 1 looked again and recogm ' zed I ' . ' imn Ginople still as cheerful as ever and unworried by bis excessive avoir ' unois. I detoured around the B ' air Behemoth and discovered my good friends Turk Keusch. Donk Linkletter, and Winner Loose lazily reclining in the shad- aft irded by Gin ' s huge girth. I was about to join them when pandemonium broke Innse a ' ld in less time than it takes Trader Schoneirevel to render Beethm n ' s Moonlight Sonata on the drums, the streets were cleared The cause of this evao ' Vi. ,u was soon apparent. Striding along the avenue came a strange, savage figure. Evidently recognizing me it called Hi. Kriel ! It was the voice of Jungle John Dennis As I Darted his un- kempt beard in order to see him more clearly. I came across Bud Fischer and Gus Kellogg, who told me they had been wandering about in the tangled mat of hair ever since they entered two years before in pursuit of a soccer ba ' l. Ae-otnp ' ishing this and apprehensive of finding Night Flight Knisrh . whom everybody believed to have been lost while girdling the globe in a glider. I abandoned my capillar) capers, bade farewell to Den Den. and continued on my way. Thirty-One (Uiic Jrujjljecy 1 went directly to Richardson Square Garden where those two mat meteors ( jot in Edwards and Don Pascal were scheduled to wrestle to a finish. Referee Red Top Turner suspecting foul play when he found a stiletto sticking through Pascal ' s chest, stopped the match with those famous words, A Turner bout is fair play. In order to assuage his customers ' wrath Manager Bill Schonegevel called upon Jack Polo Loco Cross to give an exhibition of the equestrian art. Jack as usual rode Johnny Fox, who was heard to lament, I must carry my Cross alone. The first sight to meet my eyes as I departed was Buzz Gould wracking his brains in an attempt to ascertain just what Blue La Monte had contributed by throwing the empty whiskey bottle at the policeman. The policeman, who happened to be Tubby Butz, illustrated the contribution by revealing the goose egg on his cranium crown and, taking I,a Monte by the arm, conducted him to the municipal building where that paternal patriarch, Judge Zuke Hench sentenced him to thirty days hard labor in Herman Heard ' s Hardy Herring Hatchery (Heard changed his name from Bill to Herman for the sake of alliteration). Suffering in the malod- orous stench of this corrective institute were such felons as Herice Mann convicted of breaking thousands of female hearts by marrying Mae West (lucky gal!) ; Little Willy Elmendorf, who in a fit of madness had pounced upon and severely thrashed Sam Field, his erstwhile friend. El was bewailing the fact that since Sam was a bachelor, there were no new Fields to conquer. Ralph Moses, responsible for the European earthquake caused by so many musicians turning over in their graves when he first conducted his original symphony, was also therein incarcerated. Hearing a scraping sound I followed it until I came upon Playboy Richards grinding edges on Spring Parish ' s chisels. Parish was sculpturing a new statue entitled Dream Girl and had chosen Pretty Boy McClave to model for him. As I left the studio I met Philbert Vogdes rejoicing in the discovery that he was a direct descendant of Vergil. He slyly informed me that Brooks Hoffman, after a twenty years ' engagement, had finally married the girl from C. C. I. Wubble-u- Wubble-u Watkins, the best man. had, through force of habit, kissed Hoffman in- stead of the bride. Happening next upon Grube Marthinsen, the altruistic athlete, I learned of the forthcoming Hudson Regatta. I ran to the river front and was just in time to see Commodore Adams of the U. S. S. Dissolute win a close victory over the Colby Junior College girls ' crew. Farmer Borer, sculling (not kicking) his punt with one hand while bailing with the other, easily triumphed over J. P. Brett, the Lake Hopatcong hermit. On the same program Tom Williams. Flash Creede, and Curley Calhoun, those natty natators, giving their opponents a 50-yard ad- vantage, splashed through the water to establish a new world ' s record in the 150 medley. Desperate Ambrose, the official timer, was as usual watching the clock. As I rounded the corner to return home, I saw Flaming Fenstermachcr madly haranguing a crowd of two ( Bob Franklin and the family Pekinese). Suddenly the dog bolted dragging poor Bob pell mell down the street. The telephone pole, how- ever, turned out to be Slim Woodring. and the peke with a savage snarl turned away in disgust. Roily Smith, preceeded by Bad Mash Gardner, who was lead- ing the way, next came to view. Both were hurrying to hear Alfredo Harding in one of his too many violin recitals. Then, as I stood watching the throng milling about the box office, there passed in rapid succession before m ■ Take Jacobus, the Latin lexicon ; Rose-hud Curtis, the morbid mysosinist ; Fish Fischel, master of mathematics ; and Jules Plucker looking as big as life in a rented tail coat. Cam- eraman Fowder was photographically preserving the gala affair for posterity. A rude hand shook me from my contemplation and looking up I saw G-Man Gunther modestly disp ' aying his tin shield and oroffering me a n ' ir of handcuffs. At this point my head cleared and shaking the p ' aster from my hair I resumed my reading with a hearty snore. Thirty-Tzvo L936 (Uumnmtcnuent program Saturday, June 6 i :oo P.

Evans, Jr. THE Student Council, a group of boys representing the student body, assists the faculty in enforcing the laws, and at the same time arbitrates with the masters in behalf of the demands of the students. In other words, it is a student-govern- ing association. This year it has succeeded in obtaining the much desired extra day in the spring vacation for those students who have been so fortunate as not to have served any detention since September. The principal effort of this organization, however, was made in providing for the success of the annual mid-winter prom. Since the organization of this committee, its purpose of giving the students more liberty, yet obliging them, in return, to respect the school ' s principles, has been achieved. The members, selected from each class, are : East Hall, Augustus C. Kellogg, Jr., President, Edward V. Evans, Jr., and Robert C. Mann: Insley, John P. Bab- bidge and William F. Saver; Locke-Ivy, Kenneth F. Miller, Julius Plucker. Ill, and George E. Richardson ; West, Robert H. Mastin. Eight y-Tw % (Sice (Club (Choir President Augustus C. Kellogg, Jr. Director Joseph Kelsall UNDER the capable leadership of Mr. Kelsall the Glee Club-Choir finished the most successful season it has enjoyed in the past three years. In the Christmas pantomime, the Other Wise Man. a group of nine composed of Frederick W. Curtis, Augustus C. Kellogg, Jr., first tenors; James H. Fischer. Robert W. Kreitler, second tenors; J. Brooks Hoffman. William Volk, Frank Q. Jones. Jr.. baritones; and Samuel Field, Jr., and Francis deL. Verdery, basses, took important singing roles while the background for the service was supplie d by the rest of the club. On the 25th of April the group traveled to Westchester, Pa., where a joint concert with a girls ' choir under the direction of Mrs. Kelsall was held, after which there was a dance. Programs were also given at Washington, Stroudsburg. and a radio broadcast at Reading, Pa. Mr. Kelsajl stated that the fellows were singing much better and that they were working on more difficult selection-, than in previous years. He also added that the quality of the voics this year was exceptionally good because of the faithful training and interest shown by the boys. The first tenors were Frederick W. Curtis, John F. Greer, Augustus C Kellogg, Jr., John K. Looloian. Frederick C. Voorhees, and W. Gilbert Yount. The second tenors consisted of Richard A. P.raman. James H. Fischer, Robert W. Kreitler, Wil- liam C. McKcan. Jr.. David M. Shull. Mitchell M. Spiesrel. and Wilbur C. Springer. jr. Baritones included Robert E. Eastright, Theodore F. Fenstermacher. Charles C. Gardner, Jr., Franklin N. Gould. Walter S.

These are the characteristics of a band and without a band an out-of-door celebration of any kind would be incomplete. The Blair band, having been rather inactive for a year or two, shows signs of vast improvement. The brass section, for instance, has been greatly reinforced by the addition of several experienced men. The chief function of this organization is to provide the colorful Blair football games with appropriate music. However, Mr. Aldrich. its director, and Ralph Moses, its president, planned a very entertaining program for Baccalaureate Sunday, as well as a rendition on the Blue and White Key Benefit Program in May.

Aldrich THIS year, the Blair Concert Orchestra realized a full season by performing at the Christmas Pageant, the Blair Alumni Banquet, the Washington ' s Birthday services, the Glee Club concert at Washington, and the All Blair Night program The Concert Orchestra unit was organized soon after the fall term began, under the capable leadership of Mr. Talbot W. Aldrich. At the Christmas Pageant, the Orchestra played Chanson Triste by Tschaikow- sky, an overture of Christmas carols, and furnished incidental music for the panto- mimes. On January 16, at the Hotel Easton, Easton, Pa., the orchestra played at inter- vals during the Blair Alumni banquet. The Blair Song and Victor Herbert selec- tions were played. To the Washington ' s Birthday exercises, the Concert Orchestra contributed the Triumphal March from Aida. On April 5, in conjunction with the Glee Club, the Concert Orchestra gave a concert at the Presbyterian Church in Washington. The selections given were the Triumphal March from Aida , and the Toreador Song from Carmen . At the All Blair Night program, the Orchestra played the Toreador Song and Friml Favorites .

Jr. ALTHOUGH this year ' s Dance Orchestra was not under the supervision of a faculty member as in previous years, it has proved itself to be one of the most popular organizations at Blair and also one of the best dance orchestras of re- cent years. Under the able leadership of Wilbur C. Springer, Jr., and Ralph A. Moses, the baton twirler, the orchestra opened its season with a tea dance after the Franklin and Marshall football game. This was followed by a tea dance after the Peddie game. It also played before the school on Hallowe ' en night. Featuring the tap dancing of Ed Sabol, the Dance Orchestra made a hit with the school. After the Christmas vacation, another tea dance was given following the Peddie swimming meet. On January sixteenth, the Dance Orchestra played jointly with the Concert Orchestra at the Alumni Banquet at Easton. On this occasion the Dance Orchestra made such an impression on the Alumni that an invitation to play at the New York banquet on April third was extended and accepted. The orchestra reached its acme of achievement when it played on the second night of the annual Winter Prom. Some of the chief characteristics of the orchestra are Wilbur Springer ' s rhythmic interpretations of current hit songs on the piano, Count Nielsen ' s somewhat caustic and weird clarinet improvisions, and Bill McKean ' s sensational wa-wa trumpet work. The orchestra, as a whole, was noted for its unity, well-balanced sax and brass sections, and its free and easy rhythm. The personnel of the orchestra : trumpets, John F. Greer and William C.

Sabol Vice-President J. Brooks Hoffman Secretary Wallace P. Watkins Stage Manager William D. Turner, Jr. Faculty Adviser Theodore R. Jeffers LATE last September, with a nucleus of only four returning members, the Dramatic Club met informally and so started its year ' s activities. On November 22 in the little theatre, the Players presented two one-act plays, while Mr. Jeffers and Mr. Wagner of the Faculty appeared in a third, The Thing , by Percival Wilde. The plays given by the club members were Submerged by Cottman-Shaw and Thank You, Doctor by Gilbert Emery. In December, members of the Academy Players united with members of the Choir, Glee Club, and Orchestra to present a Christmas pagant. Mrs. Jeffers adapted the script of the performance from a Christmas story by Henry Van Dyke, entitled The Other Wise Man . On March 6 the Players took three short plavs to C. C. I. for a dress rehearsal. These plays, Thirst by J. K. Bell, The Sidekick by Helene Lucas and The Wedding by John Kirkpatrick were produced before a Blair audience on the fourteenth. The members this year included : Robert W. Barnitt, Theodore F. Fenstermacher, James H. Fischer, Henry Frielinghaus, HI, Charles C. Gardner, Jr., Franklin N. Gould, J. Brooks Hoffman, Allan W.

Eighty-Eight President Rolland B. Smith Secretary and Librarian John V. Dennis Faculty Adviser Theodore R. Jeffers A LITERARY CLUB primarily designed to promote creative effort in English at Blair is the Stylus. Every Friday evening the club holds meetings at which one of the members reads a prepared paper on some topic of his interest. Throughout the school year the club has sponsored a series of chapel programs in commemoration of national holidays. During these services students deliver orig- inal addresses and thus develop their abilities to express themselves. In addition, many of the masters, since January, have addressed the school during week-day morn- ing chapel exercises. These programs, under the general auspices of the Stylus, have been guided by a club Chapel Committee composed of Creede. Evans, and Mann. This year the club has again decided to award a worthwhile book to the student whose original contributions to the literary supplement was adjudged best. This year ' s membership was composed of the following fellows : Russell V. Adams, Jr., Conrad J. Balentine, Brian K. Bradford. Robert A. Butz, Thomas B. Creede. John L. Cross, Jr., Neil Carothers, III, John V. Dennis. Edward V. Evans, Jr., Henry Frielinghaus, III, Franklin N. Gould, William C. Heard, J. Harold Laffey, George V. LaMonte, Jr., Robert C.

Williams THE Blue and White Key had a very active and successful year in which the Cabinet expanded its social service work. Four families in the community were given aid throughout the winter. These families were given weekly food boxes, unused food from the kitchen, and clothing. Members of the Cabinet and other members of the student body made trips to see the actual conditions in these homes. Funds were provided for hot luncheons for the pupils in Blairstown High School and Franklin Grove School who could not afford a noonday meal. The Blue and White Key also bought eye-glasses for some children who needed them. The Key made a contribution toward the new sound movie projector which the school bought this year. The relief work was partly financed by contributions from the students and patrons of the school. The student body again voted to have the popular Economy Meal , and the money which the school saved was given to the Blue and White Key. Old clothing was collected in each dormitory shortly before each vacation, and the Cabinet distributed the clothing among the needy people. Early in May a number of school organizations contributed their talent to a benefit performance at Roys Theater. The entire proceeds were given to the Blue and White Key so they could start next year with a balance. The Cabinet members made three trips during the year. Blair had the largest delegation at a conference held at Buck Hill Falls in January, and a small delega- tion attended a conference at Lafayette College in April. Several boys made an ex- tensive visit to the New York East Side to observe the social conditions in the New York slums during Easter vacation. Members of the Cabinet : John P. Babbidge, Robert H. Mastin, Kenneth F. Miller, E. Remington Nichols, Julius Plucker III, George E. Richardson, Edwin M. Sabol, William F. Saver, William Volk. Ninety % ketcl] (Club President John G. Ritzenthaler Secretary ami Treasurer Robert E. Parish Faculty Adviser Dr. Raymond Wing SINCE its founding in 1933, the Sketch Club has been an active extra-curricular organization at Blair. Dr. Raymond Wing has acted as faculty adviser for the group. The purpose of the club has been to teach the simpler forms of art to students desiring to learn and to develop any talent which may be present. Mrs. Young has been a great help to the Sketch Club throughout the year. Through the efforts of Dr. Wing, the organization received three reels of motion pictures from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The picture, entitled The Paint- ing of a Portrait was exhibited to those of the student body who were interested. It showed the painting of a portrait by one of America ' s foremost painters, Wayman Adams, and pictured all the steps necessary, from the rough beginning to the com- pleted portrait. Afterwards, F. S. Gordon, of Blairstown, gave an interesting lec- ture on Modern Art. He explained the thought behind one of his paintings in the modern trend which he exhibited before those present. In the beginning of the year, a contest was held for the best poster advertising the motion picture. The Three Musketeers . Cash prizes were won by Robert Par- ish and John Ritzenthaler. At the end of the school year, an exhibition will be held in conjunction with the Camera Club in which cash prizes will be awarded to those with best sketches. The winner in last year ' s contest was Chandler Messimer. The members of the Sketch Club are Robert W. Barnitt, John L. Cross, Jr., George H. Goldenberg, Robert A. Metzger, Robert E. Parish, John G.

UnangsT Faculty Adviser Dr. Raymond Wing THE Fishing Club, although in its first year as an institution, has mack- rapid progress and can be considered as one of the more active clubs of Blair. President Kreitler was instrumental in obtaining some excellent guest speaker- , chief of whom were Assistant Chief Warden Harry Cudney, of the New Jersey Stati Fish Hatchery, in Hackettstown, and Dr. Phil Gootenberg, outdoor editor of the Paterson Evening News , who gave the club valuable information on fly casting. fly tying, and fishing in general. Mr. Cudney. who was in charge of the state distri- bution of fish, placed the resources of his hatchery at the club ' s disposal, and the club in turn disposed of them to its benefit and piscatorial knowledge. The club members themselves gave informative talks on the various phases and types of fishing. In addition there was offered a handsome opening day prize which was captured by President Kreitler. The winning of the all season prize still hangs in the balance. The club ' s roster contained the following names: George Bunnell. John V. Dennis, David L. Fowler. Henrv Frielinghaus, III.

Faculty Manager marvin g. mason THE BREEZE has been very successful this year under the leadership of Mr. Mason and the various editors. Witli less than half of the old members this year, the school paper has adequately filled its place among the Blair publications. First call for candidates was made soon after the opening of school. These men worked faithfully at editorial, circulation, business, and make up work until Christmas at which time elections to the different boards were made. During the year there have been several staff elevations, but for the most part the editors of the paper have retained their respective positions. The Breeze is a member of the Princetonian Newspaper Association and. each month, gets a rating on the combined merits of the work of the different departments. hie Hundred One (% f xtm Club President Roger W. Brett, Jr. Secretary Charles B. Hench Faculty Adviser Charles L. Steckel THE Blair Press Club has for its purpose the gathering and dissemination of news relative to the athletic, social, and academic interests and activities of the student body. It informs the student ' s home town paper by means of short, pithy articles whenever he attains any special distinction, or gains coveted honors. The club works in collaboration with regular reporters in covering the big games. The leading metropolitan newspapers are furnished with the results of Blair athbtic con- tests and major news items of interest to the many alumni and patrons of the school. Blair is kept in the public eye by the Press Club, and its members receive valuable experience in the writing of accurate news items. President Roger W. Brett, Jr., Charles B. Hench, John R. Holder, Howard L. Mamlet, and Louis B. Nielsen, Jr., returned this year to continue their work under Mr. Steckel, Faculty Adviser. The ' ' ress Club was more popular than last year, and there was a keen rivalry for positions. Each candidate was given several assign- ments, and Neil Carothers III, Francis E. Dunn, Theodore F. Fenstermacher, John M. Fox, Franklin N. Gould, Warren F. Randolph were elected to the club. One Hundred Two (Sfall and Hiit- Htittcr JJromg M 1X1:1.) society reached a new high at Blair this year through the more successful staging of two proms. The hrst, the Fall Prom, was given in honor of the 1935 football squad on November sixteenth under the auspices of the Blue and White Key. During the week end of February twenty-second, the Student Council presented the Mid-Winter Prom. Much credit is due to Mr. LeRoy Haskins and the dance committees for the success of the dances. Nearly one hundred and fifty persons presented themselves at the gym for the Fall Prom. From eight forty-five until twelve o ' clock the music of Gay Young and his orchestra filled the east court of the gym. During intermissions the dancers ad- journed to the west court which was provided with benches, chairs, and sofas all adorned with printed spreads in order that weary feet might get a few ininu.es rest. Mrs. Charles H. Breed along with the other ladies of Blair acted as patronesses. The Blue and White Key I). nice Committee was composed of Robert C. Mann, chair- man. John P. Babbidge. Robert H. Mastin. E. Remington Nichols, Julius Plucker. III. George E. Richardson. Edwin M. Sabol, William F. Saver, and William Vo ' k. A gay weekend of dancing, athletics, and winter sports was enjoyed at Blair during the Mid-Winter Prom February twenty-first, second and third. Excellent weather, wonderful music, and charming guests went to make the occasion a com- plete success. Friday afternoon many of the guests arrived in time to see the Blair wrestlers grapple with those from Franklin and Marshall Academy. The red parlor in Locke Hall was opened as a smoking room for the weekend and this naturally be- came the meeting place ami center of activity, for the girls were rooming in Locke. At nine o ' clock the first night the forty-three couples began to assemble in the gym to dance to the music of Julian Woodworth and his Columbia Broadcasting System orchestra until two in the morning. Midway between the program of twelve dances, Mrs. Shaw served excellent refreshments of coffee, cakes, and ice cream. Saturday morning the boys and their guests took advantage of the abundant snow and indulged in all phases of winter sports. In the afternoon they watched two Blair teams come through victorious. The swimmers triumphed over the squad from the University of Pennsylvania ' s freshman class and the basketball team beat Prince- ton Prep. After supper nearly every one went to tlv movies and then attended the informal dance in the gym until midnight. The Blair Dance Orchestra under the direction of Wilbur Springer and led hv Ralnh Moses furnished the music. Sunday after more sledding and skiing the time arrived for the guests to depart and after fond adieus a most enjoyable week end was over. Dr. and Mrs. Charles H. Breed acted as host and hostess of Blair and Miss Christine McQueen and Mrs. Herrick P. Young chaperoned the guests during their stay. The Student Council Dance Committee consisted of Augustus C. Kellogg. Jr., President. John P. Babbidge. Edward V. Evms. lr.. p.. beet C. Mann, Robert H. Mastin, Kenneth F. Miller. Julius Plucker. III. George E. Richardson, and William F. Saver. One Hundred Tlucc One Hundred Four ittrrtainnuutts DURING the school year many varied entertainments urn- given at Blair much to the enjoyment of the student body. For the second consecutive year Hallowe ' en was celebrated by a stunt night held in the chapel following one of Mrs. Shaw ' s famous duck dinners. The large audience received very favorably the Blair Dance Orchestra which is the best the school has ever known. Frank Jones was the chairman of the production which in- cluded a skit, a magician ' s act which was very well done by Henry Frielinghaus. musical arrangements, and many other acts. The program was sponsored by the Academy Players and was given under the direction of Mr. .letters. On December IS the annual Christmas pageant was in the form of a dramatized version of Henry Van Dyke ' s The Other Wise Man which was presented by a student cast under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Jeffers. The Glee Club, the Concert Orchestra, and the Academy Players were chief among the organizations that aided. Franklin Gould played the leading role, that of Artaban. the other wise man. Miss Elizabeth Breed, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Breed, appeared in two different roles in the production. On Tuesday evening, the 25th of February, in the Chapel in Clinton Hall, Mr. Morris Frank of the Seeing Eye Institute in Morristown. gave a talk, illustrated by movies, on the training of dogs for use by the blind. In the movies Mr. Frank illus- trated the manner in which the dogs and the blind people are trained at the school at Morristown. After this he lectured on the manner in which a dog leads the blind person around and answered many questions which were asked. On the evening of March 3, Mr. C, W. Duncan gave a talk on the people whom he had interviewed while writing for the Philadelphia Public Ledger in which he has written a column for the past nine years. Among the famous people Mr. Duncan has interviewed are President Roosevelt, and the late Huey P. Long, who he said was a political Billy Sunday . He impersonated Huey Long. Joe E. Brown. Ty Cobb. Babe Ruth. Wiley Post. Will Rogers. Admiral Byrd. Dizzy Dean, and many others. A friend of Mr. Duncan also came upon the platform and gave his impres- sions of Joe Louis. The Academy Players gave their usual productions, three one act plays in the fall, three more towards the end of the winter term, and the usual commencement production. In the fall Submerged , The Thing , and Thank You, Doctor were presented by the Blair dramatists. The three plays presented at the end of the winter were Thirst , a tragedy. The Side-Kick , and A Wedding . Many tea dances were given during the year by the Blair Dance Orchestra and were all very well received by the large number of couples who attended. Three of these dances were held during the football season and the large number of people who attended the football games also danced to the music of Blair ' s best dance or- chestra afterwards. The custom of having masters give talks in chapel usually on Thursday morn- ings was continued with marked success. Among those who have spoken as the Acta goes to press are Mr. Mason. Mr. leffers. Dr. Breed, Mr. Walker, Mr. Haskins and Mr. Eddy. Chapel programs were also arranged by the Stylus in commemoration of various national holidays. Among those celebrated in this manner were Armistice Day, Thanksgiving Day. Washington ' s Birthday, Lincoln ' s Birthday, and Memorial Day. The Museum was open throughout the year and besides the regular exhibits special ones were also arranged. Dr. Wing, who is in charge of this interesting work, also arranged for a pictorial display during the year. One Hundred Fi: i c (in est lesper Speakers Oct. 13— REV.

Miller THE Athletic Association, which is headed this year by two presidents, consists of the entire student body. The officers of this organization, who are elected at the opening of the school year, endeavor to conduct and sustain student interest in all Blair athletic events. To arouse in the student body the well known spirit, pep meetings are held the evening before every important athletic contest. The election of Ed Sabol and Ken Miller as co-presidents opened the season with the anticipation of success in all athletic activities. Without a doubt these two worthy men injected into the students their ardent and enthusiastic interest for all sports; the result was a successful year in athletic contests, successful because the Blair teams knew that behind their efforts stood the encouragement and appreciation of the whole student body. Good sportsmanship was emphatically voiced and urged at the first pep meeting because this trait once vested in a student will tend to make his character respected by all those with whom he comes into contact and it will also tend to perpetuate a true Blair characteristic. The night before the Blair-Peddie football game, which was celebrated by a stupendous pep rally, snake dances, songs, cheers, talks by many of the students and masters, and a colossal bon-fire marked the pinnacle of the football season. A zealous cheer-leading squad consisting of Mitchel Spiegel, Bill Turner, and Al Harding as- sisted in making the rally successful.

THE Blair Athletic Council, which directs all of the school ' s spurts, is composed (if the Headmaster, three faculty advisers, one faculty manager, and the captains of the three major sports. The duties of the Council are to authorize all schedules, award all sports in- signia, and to elect all student managers. Meetings are held at least twice each term, at which time letters are awarded and other business relevant to games and schedules is transacted. The Council functions according to a written constitution representing the Blair Athletic Association. Any marked change in athletic policy concerning the awarding of letters must he included in an amendment to the Constitution. Any amendment to the Constitution must he passed by a two-thirds vote of the Athletic Council and have the approval of the faculty. The Athletic Council encourages good sportsmanship in all athletic activities, and especially emphasizes the importance of losing respectfully and courteously. Last year ' s plan of awarding split letters to championship teams has again been adopted. A change in the style of minor sports insignia has also been approved by this year ' s Council.

Facing the season with only five veterans, in three weeks Coach Johnson lined up an aggregation which, on October 5, with little experience as a unit, met a highly favored Lehigh freshman eleven at Blair, winning 13-6. With that highly deserved victory digested, the following Saturday Blair tackled a much under-rated Muhlenberg freshman team. In the third play of the game. Buck Jones intercepted a lateral pass and ran forty-five yards to score. From there on, however, the game was a nip and tuck battle, although in the end superior strength told, and Muhlenberg was able to put over two touchdowns to make it 12-6. On the following Friday afternoon, the Blair team journeyed to New York, and although outplaying, for the greater part of the game, the long-heralded Horace Mann team, lacked the punch to make a score and consequently fell a victim to Horace Mann ' s sole touchdown and a safety, the result of a blocked pass late in the game. After the close of the hard game which found Blair on the short end of a 9-0 score, a good many of the team members went home for the week-end, and it seemed to do them good, for on their return to the home field, they handed in a 26-6 win over Irving School of Tarrytown, N. Y.. scoring twenty points in the second half with touchdowns by Borer, Masco, and Creede. In a hard fought battle the following Saturday, the Blair team outplayed a strong team from Franklin and Marshall Academy, and in the third period succeeded in making a safety by virtue of Verdery ' s long punts and a Franklin and Marshall fumble in the end zone. However, of a frantic bombardment of Franklin and Marsh- all passes in the final minutes of the game, one was at last completed for the visitors ' first touchdown, and before the home team could retaliate the whistle had blown with the score 7-2. True to tradition, in the thirty-third annual game with Peddie, past season ' s records meant nothing, for as usual both teams entered the game determined to close the season with a win over their arch rivals, regardless of what they had done before. After Peddie had resisted a terrific first half onslaught by the Blair team, which netted one touchdown by Borer on a pass from McClave, and threatened many more, it became very evident that the visitors were in no mood to be daunted by their past prformances. In the third period, Peddie came back with a sudden burst of spirit, and taking advantage of an exchange of punts which gave them the ball on Blair ' s thirty yard line, they advanced it to the four yard stripe. For three successive downs the Peddie backs battered vainly at the Blair line, and on the last down barely man- aged to force the ball over the goal line. In the next play. Reinicker smashed through and saved the game for Blair by blocking Flinn ' s kick for the extra point. Captain Balentine, Masco, Creede. Verdery, and Jones were the only returning lettermen. Of these, Creede developed into an outstanding blocking back. Verdery saved the day many a time with his long punts, and Masco was a fine ball carrier, who along with Borer, McClave. and George Linkletter produced a strong backfield. In the line. Balentine was an impenetrable wall at right guard, with Butz his run- ning mate. Gibbs, an underclassman, showed up well at center and was ably substi- tuted for by Gould and LaMonte. Wood and Mann did relief work at the two guard positions. Ginople and Miller at the tackle posts were two men whom opposing teams found it hard to pierce. Unangst and Dennis did noble work in substituting for them. The ' end men ' , Jones and Reinicker, Linkletter and Marthinsen, all proved very effective in receiving passs and laying out opposing tackles, as well as filling in the holes on the defense.

Their season included a string of eight undefeated dual meets, first in the Rutger ' s Interscholastics, first in the New Jersey State Championships, and second in the North American Interscholastics. On the basis of the records shattered during this season, the Blair team deserves to rank as the greatest scholastic team in the coun try. The team was well-balanced in every department. It had its share of stars, but it also had the men who could win the third or fourth place, which sometimes meant the difference between defeat and victory. The outstanding man on the team was the captain, Ed Sabol. During the season he swam anchor man on the World ' s Interscholastic record-breaking 150 yard and 180 yard medley relay teams, and the 200 yard relay team. He tied his own World ' s Interscholastic record in the 40 yards freestyle event. He set a new World ' s Inter- scholastic mark for the 100 yards freestyle by swimming it in the fast time of 52.4 seconds. This is the best time ever made by any swimmer in prep or high school. He won every race he entered during the season. Every Blair mark, except the 160 yard medley relay and the 40 yard dash, was broken this year. Tom Williams broke the 220-yard record. In the 100-yard breast- stroke Bob Hack set a new time, and Reinicker broke the 100 yard backstroke record. Sabol, Williams, and Reinicker lowered the time of the 180 yard medley. In the third meet Blair met Allentown Higli School. This was the closest meet of the season. Again the medley mark was bettered, and Sabol tied his 40 and 100 yard records. The Montclair Y. M. C. A. team put up a good fight, but it was of no use. Sabol, Williams, and Reinicker made a new World ' s Interscholastic record in the 150 yard medley. In the fifth meet Blair easily took the honors away from Peddie. In this meet Captain Sabol lowered his own 100 yard dash time, and a new mark for the 180 yard medley was set by Sabol, Williams, and Reinicker. On February 8, the Blue and White team went down to Princeton, and over- powered their freshmen. Blair broke six Princeton freshman records. The next two meets, with Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania Fresh- men, Blair took with ease. It was in the former that Ed Sabol made the phenomenal time of 52.4 seconds in the 100 yard freestyle. Blair took high honors at the Rutger ' s Interscholastics by piling up a score of 39 points. Trenton High School was second with 14 points. During this meet Wil- liams, Reinicker, Calhoun, and Sabol broke the World ' s Interscholastic record for the 200 yard relay, and Williams, Hack, and Calhoun set a new mark for the 300 yard medley race. The next week Blair walked away with the New Jersey State title at Newark. Four state records were smashed. Captain Sabol established a new one in the 50 yard dash. Tom Williams easily set a fast time for the 220-yard freestyle. Calhoun, Hack, and Williams won the 150 yard medley in record time. Scott, Creede. Mann, and Reinicker lowered the old mark in the 200 yard relay. McClave won first place in the diving. Blair acquired 53 points to Lawrenceville ' s 28. The last meet of this astounding season was the North American Interscholastics held at Penn A. C. Blair finished second, tallying 28 points to Massanutten ' s 32. Creede. Hack, and Reinicker bettered the 150 medley mark. Blair was handicapped by not being able to use Williams and Calhoun. Captain Sabol climaxed his season by winning both the 50 and 100 yard dash, thus stamping himself as the nation ' s out- standing school boy swimmer.

In two of the meets Blair was defeated by extremely narrow margins, and the victory over the highly-touted Princeton Freshmen team more than offset the less successful encounters. The team too, it must be considered, was not at full strength at all times, because of the sickness or injury of several varsity members. In the opening meet of the season, Blair overwhelmingly defeated the Columbia Freshmen, 38-0. Teaneck High School, strong in every class, next encountered the Blair team and avenged their last year ' s defeat at our hands by winning, 21-10. The Teaneck team garnered three falls and two time advantages to Blair ' s two falls. Benny Fodera in the 118-pound class and Ray Wood in the 155-pound class turned in stellar performances to register the only two Blair wins. The next match brought Freehold High School to Blair in one of the most ex- citing and dramatic meets of the entire season. A large crowd witnessed the event, and saw a fighting Blair team eke out an 18-16 victory. The match itself, close all the way through, was not decided until Jim Ginople, Blair heavyweight, threw West of the visitors in 1:17. Fodera kept his excellent record intact in the first match, and then in the 126-pound class, Blair was represented by a newcomer to the varsity, Neil Carothers, who, although showing great promise, was defeated by Visco, of Freehold, in 1 :21 of the first period. In one of the closest meets in which a Blair team has ever participated, the Blue and White grapplers suffered a 15-11 defeat at the hands of a strong Poly Prep team at Brooklyn. Three of the bouts went into overtime periods and had to be decided by referee ' s decisions. Verdery. scoring Blair ' s only fall, along with Fodera and Leidesdorf accounted for the team ' s eleven points. The fifth encounter of the season saw Blair score its greatest victory. This was truly the highlight of the schedule for the fans were shown just what the team was capable of doing when at top-strength. It was a somewhat surprising win for Blair as the Princeton yearlings were riding upon the crest of an extended winning streak. Fodera, Schwarz, Wood, Leidesdorf, and Ginople scored time advantages in Blair ' s great comeback. Turner, hard-luck man of the squad, lost on a referee ' s decision to Grange, of Princeton, after two extra periods, while Unangst, in his first varsity meet, was thrown by his heavier and more experienced opponent in 6 :07. The unlimited bout again decided the meet when Ginople, of Blair, won a 3:30 time advantage. Prom week-end brought the Franklin and Marshall matmen to Blair where they eked out a close 16-14 decision. Benny Fodera, diminutive 118-pounder, stretched his winning streak to eight straight, and ten wins out of twelve bouts, when he threw Marfield, of F. M., in 1 :52. Of the second period, Capt. Schwarz was narrowly defeated in the next bout by Rupp on a time advantage of 1 :03, and then in the best match of the meet Pete Masco wrestled excellently to capture a time advantage of 5:18 from Turner. Leidesdorf and Ginople turned in their usual stellar performances and both were victorious via the time advantage route. Blair lowered the curtain on its wrestling season by opposing Newton High School at the latter place. In a crippled state, the Blair contingent was defeated by strong opposition. 22-6. Fodera, who was undefeated throughout the season, won his ninth straight victory in beating Johnson, of Newton, with a time advantage of 1 :33. The only other rejoicing for Blair came in the unlimited bout where Ginople scored a time advantage of 4 :22. Ginople. Turner, and Pascal wrestled their last meet for Blair, but with many veterans and some promising reserves back next year, a more success- ful season is looked for.

A member of the Eastern Private Schools Basketball League, the Blue and White five split even in ten games, winning ?,nd losing five games. As a result of this the close of the sea- son found Blair holding the third place in the final standings. However, the Blue dropped both non-league games to wind up with five victories against seven defeats. With only three ve terans from last year returning, Coach Haskins was forced to fill many positions on the varsity squad with newcomers. The three men who re- turned were Captain Evans, Red Lee, and Buck Jones. Jones and Lee were the regular forwards and Evans filled one of the guard posts. Lee was the high scorer for the year with a total of 84 points with Jones second with 75. Lee and Marthinsen, the second guard, were both placed on the Second All- League team. The season ' s high point was undoubtedly the second game with Irving in which the Blue and White revenged their earlier defeat by upsetting their favored rivals, and knocking them out of their march toward the league championship. During this fray the Blair attack left nothing to be desired as it broke very quickly to vanquish the losers. Red Lee was in rare form and tallied 16. points. Blair led throughout the first half bu t in the third period Irving took away the lead and built up a substan- tial lead of their own. However, Blair rallied in the fading seconds to win. With Poly Prep as its opponent Blair first displayed its full capacities on Feb- ruary 1, by defeating the Blue and Grey, 38-30. Again Jones was high scorer, this time with a total of fifteen points. As in the second Irving game Blair led throughout the first half, but Poly came back in the third period to forge ahead, and Blair retaliated in the fourth quarter to triumph. In the first of the two games with Irving, the Maroon and White completely out- played the visiting Blue team and won as thev pleased, 43-20. Buck Jones was all that stood between Blair and a very much worse defeat. The stellar Blair forward scored more than half his team ' s points. 12 to be exact, and was in the fray at all times. On the 19th of February. Blair met Poly Prep for the second time and this time suffered a 25-23 defeat. Poly led during the first and second periods but in the third Blair rallied. Finally Poly won on a shot by Warner from under the basket as the bell rang. Lee was high scorer for Blair with a to f al of eight points. On the Saturday of the Mid-Winter Prom, February 22, Blair sought revenge for their previous defeat when they met the Tiger Cubs on the Blair court before a large crowd of Promenade guests. The home team was successful in its quest and ended on the long end of a 38-30 count. The following Saturday Blair met Peddie in a continuation of the annual rivalry. Prior to this game Peddie had won the game in each of the five preceding years, Blair ' s last victory being scored in 1930. Peddie, led by Captain George Case was again victorious, this time by a 37-20 count. Case was by far the outstanding player to appear on the Blair court this season, and he tallied 19 points in this game. Arias was high scorer for Blair with six noints. This was the first defeat for Blair on the home court though they were to suffer three in a row. On Wednesday, March 4, Blair met the strong Horace Mann quintet for the sec- ond time. On the home court Blair was unable to set started during the first half, the score being 23-7 in favor of Horac Ma , and during the last two periods the Blue and White was unable to make no the deficit though they held the visitors even. The season was closed on the Blair court th« following Wednesday when the Blue and White succumbed to an older, more experienced Perkiomen quintet, 47-28 in a non-league game. In the first and last quarters Blair was the better team but Perkiomen ran roughshod in the second and third periods.

An excellent bat- tery is composed of Red on the mound and Ken behind the plate. Balentine and Franklin, two other competent twirlers, complete the pitching staff. The vacancy left by Bill Harper is being filled by George Arias, who covers the initial sack very well. Johnnie Maines does a good job at second while George Linkletter holds down the hot corner with ease. A dependable shortstop is seen in John Clark. Orm McClave takes care of the left field position while Wally Borer covers the center pie. Tom Creede and Earle Beck are both excellent fielders and will probably alternate most of the time. Although the team has had more outdoor practice than usual before its first en- counter, there is much new material to be developed in order that vacancies might be filled. Most of the squad is new but it is doing a fine job and should be just as successful as others have been in the past. The first team to fall victim to the Blair nine w-as Stroudsburg High School. During the first inning Stroudsburg was kept at bay by Harry Warrington, on the mound, and Ken Miller, behind the plate. In the middle of the second inning Harry was replaced by Bob Franklin, who stayed in until the sixth inning . With two runs against Blair and three men on base Bob pitched a marvelous game, only allowing one run to the visiting team in the three and one half innings he pitched. In the beginning of the sixth inning Red Lee took the mound and made short work of the Stroudsburg batters. It was in this inning that the Blair team rallied and gained the lead for the first time during the game. Orm McClave hit a double into deep left field and soon afterward went to third on a passed ball. Wally Borer then hit a grounder to second, scoring McClave, and was safe on first. Red Lee was then walked to first and Stroudsburg substituted Auer for Haas, who pitched the rest of the game. George Linkletter then advanced Red and Wally but was put out on first. Johnnie Maines then hit a fly to right field and Wally scored. After Red Lee had come in on a wild pitch, Tom Creede did his bit by hitting a clean triple along the left field foul line. George Arias was walked and Tom came in on a wild pitch, thus bringing in Blair ' s fourth run in the sixth inning. In the seventh inning Bob Werson hit a two bagger which brought both McClave and Borer in to make the final score eight to five in favor of Blair. The game was called in the seventh inning because of severe weather conditions. In the second game of the season, with Tenafly High School, the Blair nine again showed much strength by gaining thirteen runs to the visitors ' twelve. During the first inning neither team scored but in the second two Blair men crossed the plate. Orm McClave got a clean base hit but made second through an error. Wally Borer then bunted to put Orm on third where he forced the play and came home. George Arias then drove the ball deep into the outfield for the first homer which brought Beck and Lee in. Tenafly got two runs in the fifth and four in the seventh, thus making the score 8-7 in favor of Blair. The high spot in the game was the eighth inning, in which both teams gained five runs. After the Tenafly team had massed five runs the outlook for Blair was rather black, the score being 12-8. Bo h George Linkletter and George Arias struck out, but Bob Werson hit a nice single in tloeft field. Red Lee hit a single and took second on an error, Werson scoring. Johnnie Clark then hit a single, took second, and sent Red in for a run. Bally Balentine walked to first, putting Clark on second. Ken Miller then provided punch bv hi+ting his second homer of the day. Red Lee replaced Balentine on the mound. The Tenafly team tried to stage a comeback but were halted in time. With three men on base and one out Red tore down on the batters, enabling Blair to maintain its one run lead. One Hundred Thirty One Hundred Thirty-One THIS year was a banner one for the Blair soccer team, for it ran through its season undefeated before a group of strong adversaries. Better yet, the oppon- ents were able to gather but one point the whole season. It is the greatest soccer team that Blair has ever had and its record probably will not be challenged for many years to come. When a call for soccer candidates was made in the fall, forty reported. Coach Haskins greeted his men and gave them their first scrimmage of the year which re- vealed great prospects. The new captain was Gus Kellogg. A strong team was built around six returning veterans, Vogdes, Bentley, Cross, Spiegel, Werson, Beck. Harding and Fischer shifted in the line and made a strong combination however placed. The big three of Kellogg, Sayer, and Hack occupied halfback positions, while a stone wall defense at fullback was provided by two of a combination of Nichols, Manahan, and Pascal. Lee and Sabol were goalies. Frenchtown was the first school to wilt under Blair ' s attack. They took a 4-1 drubbing on the Blue and White field as Kellogg, Beck, and Fischer starred, being responsible for the total number of winning points. Blair had the offensive through- out the game. Beck first scored for Blair, but the visitors soon tied the score. How- ever, the Blue and White soon got over typical first game raggedness and forged ahead to win. Belvidere School alone held Blair to a tie. Clearly the strongest opposition that the home booters had all year, they still were unable to beat Blair. Both teams played an astonishingly fine game. In the Horace Mann game, Fischer and Harding scored as the big three of Kel- logg, Sayer, and Hack formed a defense with fullback Nichols the greatest star of all. The home team displayed an almost unbroken combination of speed and tricki- ness which had the Maroon and White on the defense for more than three-quarters of the game. Blair provided a defense with which the Horace Mann forwards could not cope, the visitors being unable to carry the ball through in a single instance and goalie Lee remaining idle throughout the four periods. It was in the second quarter of this game that t he wonderful teamwork of Harding and Fischer accounted for a score as the former repeatedly gave Al a set-up which was taken advantage of, while Nichols, power of the fullback section and dynamo of the team, kept the ball in the scoring section throughout the game. Fischer accomplished most in winning by scoring one point and assisting in another. The best defense is a strong offense, was illustrated in the Poly Prep game in Brooklyn as the Blair booters won as they pleased, 4-0. Spiegel, out for the first part of the game, came in at half time to make two goals and to take high scoring honors. The big three formed a new combination that had the Polymen stumped. Beck and Hack accounted for Blair ' s other two points. One Hundred Thirty-Two farcer Captain Augustus C. Keulogc, Jr. Manager John M. Fox Co ach Lf.Roy E. Haskins LETTER MEN Earle J. Beck.

The entire school is divided into two equal groups in respect to the age and weight of the students. During the year, these groups engaged in athletic contests and at the end of the school year, the color club which has amassed the greatest number of points is given a banquet. Points are awarded to a color team for each varsity letter. athletic award, and scrub letter earned by its members. Points are also won by the teams at the three Blue and White meets held during the year. These three meets are held after the fall sports season, after the winter sports season, and on Memorial Day. The sports of that particular season are held on these days with a chance for everyone to compete for his color team. Football, soccer, wrestling, basketball, swim- ming, baseball, tennis, golf, and track are the sports engaged in at these meets. In many of these sports. Blue and White teams are organized with regard to compulsory athletics. This system has many advantages over interdorm competition. At the end of the fall season, the Blues were ahead with a score of 163 5 6 to 159 1 6. The Blue team won the football game, but the soccer game resulted in a tie. In the winter sports only two meets were held. The varsity basketball game and the swimming meet were called off. The Blues won a very close and exciting scrub basketball game, but had to be satisfied with a tie in the wrestling meet, the outcome of which was undecided until the end of the final bout. The Whites gained a greater number of points during the winter season because they had more men on each of the varsity teams. Since there is to be another field day after this Acta goes to press, the scores are not vet final, but so far the Whites hold a slight advantage over the Blues with a score o 281 1 6 to 272 5 6. With the score so close, the rest of the year should prove an exciting one for both of the color teams in their race for victorv. One Hundred Thirty-Four One Hundred Thirty-Vive M UNDER the coaching of Mr. Zimmerman, the 1936 golf team, including four of last year ' s letter men, has shown in its recent matches possibilities of an ex- tremely successful season. Practice commenced upon the return from the Spring vacation with the use of the driving range to develop form. Later, Mr. Zimmerman had his golf candidates play many eighteen hole matches to determine who should make up the team. Although it is his first year at Blair, Carl Becker, because of his unusual skill in the sport, has succeeded in obtaining the position of number one man on the team. Junior Zimmerman, the elder son of the golf coach, and number two man on the team, has shown excellent form by recently tying the course record of thirty-five. Gerod, of Peddie, two years ago was the first and last to tie this record. Both Becker and Zimmerman have been playing the course in the low forties and at times in the upper thirties. George Bunnell, the captain of this year ' s golf team and one of last year ' s letter men, through his consistent playing has succeeded in earning the position of number three man. The position of number four man on the team is a toss up be- tween Raymond Wood and Edward V. Evans, both of last year ' s team and both ex- ceptional players. Saturday, April 18, opened the Blair golfing season with a match with Weequahic PI. S., of Newark. The result of this match was 12-0, an overwhelming victory for the Blair team. In this first match Becker defeated Herley 10 up and 8 to go. Zim- merman defeated Mintz by 9 up and 8 to go, Bunnell defeated Seifert by 9 and 8, and Evans, playing number four man, defeated Feirt by 6 up and 4 to go. The Blair Junior varsity, consisting of Wood, Schwarz, Holder and Dennis defeated Weequahic Junior Varsity, 12-0. On Saturday, April 25. Blair repeated its skillful p ' aying by defeating Franklin and Marshall, 12-0. Becker defeated Ashee 8 and 7, Zimmerman defeated Mayer 8 and 7, Bunnell defeated Scot with the close score of 2 and 1, and Ray Wood de- feated Bayuk 7 and 5. Becker was low man with a 77, followed by Zimmerman with a 78. Blair defeated Asbury Park H. S. on May 2 by 11 l A to ' . Becker defeated Pezzella by 8 and 7, Zimmerman defeated Feliex DeSorno. 7 and 6, Bunnel defeated Nick De Sarno, 4 and 2, and Wood defeated Stolz 1 up. Zimmerman was low man with a 77 which included eleven pars on the eighteen holes. Those on the varsity golf squad are : Carl F. Becker, Sylvanus A. Zimmerman, Jr., George Bunnell, captain. F.

Cross were the only letter men from last year ' s team. Coach Chester Wagner and Captain Fischer were faced with the task of select- ing a team from the squad of thirty that turned out, and that was handicapped by un- favorable weather conditions. Shortly after spring vacation, practice was begun on the indoor court in the gym. For two weeks the squad was kept indoors because of cold and rainy weather. During this time Coach Wagner had an opportunity to get a line on the form of the different players, but nothing definite could be decided until outdoor practice had begun. Upon moving to the outdoor courts, an elimination tournament was started to prove the ability of each player. The players selected for the varsity squad as a result of the tournament might be challenged by any player eliminated in the early matches of the tournamnt. The tournament was started a week before the first match. The results showed that the probable varsity squad would be made up of Captain Fischer, Philip H. Gunther, John L. Cross, Wilbur C. Springer, Neil Carothers, Donald D. Pascal. Robert J. Hack. William A. Miller. James McA. Vogdes, Wallace P. Watkins, John O. Metzger, and John W. Moorhead. The first match of the season was with Nyack High School on the home courts, Saturday, April 25. Having had practically no practice, the Blair team showed up remarkably well, and defeated the opposition 8-0. In the singles. Phil Gunther, play- ing number one, defeated his opponent 6-1, 6-3. Gunther showed very good form in the match, and is ranked as a polished player. Captain Bud Fischer played num- ber two, and had little difficulty in defeating his man 6-0, 6-0. Jack Cross, number three, won his match in straight sets 6-1, 6-1. In fourth position Springer had some strong competition in the first set but won 8-6, and then decidedly outplaying his man, won the second set 6-2. Carothers played number five position, and had little trouble in winning his match 6-2, 6-0. In the doubles Gunther and Cross won easily, defeating the opposing pair 6-1, 6-0. Springer and Fischer defeated their men 6-0, 6-0, in the second doubles. Pascal and Carothers played number three doubles and won 6-2, 6-2. On Wednesday, April 29, the team played Pennsylvania State Teachers College Junior Varsity on the home courts. The Blair team played splendid tennis, and overcame the opposition by the score of 6-1. In the singles. Gunther played number one, and after a long hard match defeated his opponent 9-7, 3-6, 6-3. Fischer, playing number two position also met some stiff competition but won 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. Springer, number three, won 6-2, 6-4. Cross played four and lost 3-6, 6-3, 6-2, Carothers won 6-0. 6-1, and Pascal won 6-1, 6-0. In the doubles the first and second matches were called off. and in the third, Hack and Carothers defeated their men 6-4, 6-4. A match with the Lehigh Freshmen was cancelled because of unfavorable weather conditions. How the team will do in the way of victories is at this time an unknown and much disputed subject. However, under the coaching of Mr. Wagner the managing of Louis B. Nielsen, and the supervising of Mr. Jeffers the team should show real ability as the season goes on and more experience in competition is gained. One Hundred Fortv (Ecnuts Captain James H.

Bill Yolk and Bill Heard were the onl veterans on the team, but many of the new fellows had had experience in their high schools. In all a formid- able team was made up. In each even! there were promising candidates. The sprints were run by Edwards and Lloyd. Edwards showed good form in running the hun- dred yard dash in 10.2 seconds. In the hurdle events Reinicker, Tewksbury, and Adams shaped up well. Calhoun and Reinicker did well in the quarter mile run and the mile was taken care of by Mann. Leidesdorf, and Fischel. The half mile event was the strongest on the team with CJnangst, Volk. and Heard. Y, running in cham- pionship form. Jumping for Blair were Shurts and Yount in the broad jump and in the high jump Tewksbury and Field. The job of pole vaulting was assumed by Ritzenthaler, Heinbokel, Dunn, and Adams. The weight events were taken care of by Butz, Cinoplc. Nichols, Sabol, and Kellogg. Others on the squad included: Acton. Gard- ner, Hurlburt, Marthinsen, Metzger, R„ Brett. Turner. Verdery, Fox.
