Walker, we are. in truth, writing our own dedication for in him is devotion to us and an expression of great confidence in our accomplishments. It is not for this reason alone that we humbly make this presentation. Through him we have seen the urgency for sincerity and the necessity of strength. We have become aware of our own tasks and willingly we will meet them. M' QL?- IRA .F Assistant Headmaster HAROLD F. WALKER A.B. Williams College Columbia University University of Havana Throughout the year, each senior has come in contact with Mr. Walker. His knowledge of boys and their problems has made him a friendly source of in- structive and helpful information. Each senior knows what it means to have such a counselor and shows great respect and admiration for this leader. Headmaster IRA A. FLINNER A.M., Ed.D., L.L.D. Harvard University Grove City College Dr. Flinner assumed the office of Acting Headmaster at Blair following his retire- ment as head of the Northwood School, Lake Placid, New York. Blair has pro- fited in countless ways by having such a capable leader during the school year. Dr. Flinner's thorough understanding of educational problems and how to cope with them has made Blair a better in- stitution of learning. .-5X'.x,J0g nczsl' HAROLD F.

Mills, Dayton. Colericlr, Bower. Vidmer. Pl theAU'l'A Concentrating on design and layout, the 1952 Acta Staff has tried to improve on its predecessors. The Acta was arranged in such a manner that more and better photographs and a great many drawings could be used without crowding the book. The primary goal of the yearbook was interest. To achieve these ends, it was necessary to follow certain policies. Believing that a small, competent staff works better than a large and unwiedly one, the editors limited the num- ber of members to sixteen. Early in the year. the question of senior write-ups was discussed among the staff. It was decided that mediocre work was inevitable, consequently, write-ups were excluded entirely from the book. Since the yearbook is primarily a senior institution, an attempt was made to have each senior in at least one informal photograph, either in the sports or senior section. The 1952 Acta Staff has tried to present the Senior Class with a yearbook which depicts not only the most memorable events of the year, but also the everyday life on the campus. PETER W.

The Breeze readers are familiar with .the excellent editorials which reflect the more serious thought on the campus. Each issue of the bi-monthly paper also contains complete Blair sports cov- erage, reviews of the interesting events at Blair, and a variety of feature articles on school life. As a result of the Breeze's fine writing and range of interest, it was rated as one of the two top school newspapers in the East by the Columbia Scholastic Press. The student body of Blair appreciates the consistently high level of journalism that is brought to them by the Breeze Staff each year.

Never starting anything h' cou1dn't finish, Chuckles gave the school his best so as to rnqke it a better place for the rest of us to live in. The Student Council, the Stylus and the Breeze were very skillfully led under his direction. On the athletic fields his fight and undying will to win were an inspiration to his team- mates. Some of us, 'however, will remember him best for his vivid prose and inability to figure out women. 0 PETER WEBER McKINNEY ' . ' 126 Washington Place , New Yorkfl. Y.

Even though Pete's heart had been left fluttering in the breezes off the Massachusetts coast when he came back last fall, he has managed to keep his thoughts at Blair long enough to compile an outstanding record. As President of the Dra- matics Club, Editor-in-Chief of the Acta, and member of both the Glee Club and Choir, he was followed, respected, and admired by his fellow workers. Kinsey , just as keen in an argument as with a water gun, had a spot reserved on the honor roll. Nevertheless, the fighting Scotchman still found time to lead his mates in the traditional East. Insley battles.

A rather bewildered and chubby immigrant from Greece arrived on the campus six long years ago. Since then, however, Panos has changed. Blair boys will always remember Pint for his friendship and friendly smile. It is safe to say that he's a true friend of all. One of the most respected members of the Student Council, Panos has done a commendable job as secretary of this organization. President of the Rod and Reel Club he is also a member of many other Clubs. Thus the kid from Greece has transplanted himself from his native land to the hearts of all Blair boys.

That not on the too thin side build with that set of terrifically cute dimples and that failure of a crew-cut has been adorning the campus for the last five years. One of the best students in our class, Iohnny has also applied his talents to various extra curricular activities as proven by his holding offices in the Student Council, the Blue and White Key, and the International Society. Also known for his quarterbacking this tall and his driving layups for the C squad this winter, Iohn's most important trait is his womanhatedness, which stemmed more on account of circumstances than of either instinct or his roommate's in- fluence. sq if-r ,df r J-WW LARRY ALBERT DAVE RANNRRMAN MARC BARZ LAWRENCE D.

ATHL TIC U0 Following the policy of athletics for all. Blair has carefully supervised its athletic program. The Buccaneers' fine teams, be- ing particularly noted for their sportsman- ship, have played in New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Rhode Island, and New Iersey. At the close of each season, several of Blair's teams are represented in the various ath- letic championships held on the Eastern Seaboard. Often capturing the title of team champion at these meets talthough competing against schools twice its sizel, Blair's teams have won the respect of their fellow competitors through their hard playing and fine display of spirit. To regulate such a vast program, the Athletic Council was formed a number of years ago. This council is made up of three faculty members, the athletic di- rector, Mr. Haskins, the headmaster, Dr. Flinner, and the captains of the athletic teams. The council meets at the close of each season to vote on the awarding of the varsity B to the members of the various teams. The council also discusses the athletic policy of the school, and the sports schedule for the coming year. To encourage such a program, the Var- sity B Association was formed. This organization consists of all those students who have won the varsity B award. At the football games in the fall term, the association sells refreshments in order to raise money to improve the school's ath- letic facilities. Last year, the association contributed a substantial sum toward the purchasing of the new board track, and in previous years has bought uniforms and other team equipment for the school. These two organizations have con- tributed a great deal toward the improve- ment of the Academy's athletic program. They have extended our facilities so that all students at Blair may enjoy sports and keen competition with boys of their own level. First row: Mr. Pender. Mr. Haskins, Dr. Flinner, Mr. Kuk, Mr. Hall.

These acclamations were directed toward Blair's fabulous football team of 1951 which com- piled a record of seven victories and no defeats. This is the first year that Blair has been undefeated since way back in 1915 when Coach Richardson guided his team through seven straight victories without a defeat. Behind the excellent coaching of Steve Kuk and Iack Horner, the team was molded into one smooth working aggregation which proved to be unquestionably stronger than its -seven unfortunate opponents. The spirit and anticipation of both team and student body was at its peak as Newark Academy trotted out on the gridiron to furnish a strong well balanced Blair team with its first opposition of the season. Newark, however. proved much too light and small to mix it up with the bigger and more experienced Buc squad, and they went down by a one-sided forty to nothing margin. The super- ior blocking and tackling of Blair's big line coupled with the great offensive punch shown by the backfield made the Newark game an excellent and very successful opener for the Blue and White aggregation. Bob Desiderio and lim Elekes, half and full backs re- spectively. unleashed a savage running attack which FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Blair 40 Newark Academy Blair 19 Montclair Teachers College Frosh Blair 37 Lawrenceville Blair 49 Admiral Farragut Blair 46 The Hill Blair 33 Bordentown Military Institute Blair 62 Peddie Won 7 Tied 0 Lost D ll00TllllLL ripped the opponents forward wall to shreads. Bob crossed the goal line twice, and Iim scored on our first offensive play. a beautiful off-tackle drive which netted 67 yards. Both boys slashed off yardage almost every time they had the pigskin. Backfield men Ierry Wynn and Pete Longo also scored for the Bucs along with end Dom Desiderio who caught a pass from quarterback Ion Cheston and ran 30 yards to Blair's last touchdown. The conversion was good giving Iohn Polzer four for four on the afternoon. Coach Kuk. anxious to determine the amount of depth in the squad, cleared practically the whole bench. Montclair Teachers College freshmen met the Bucs in the second contest of the season. The frosh turned out to be Blair's toughest opponent as they held the Blue and Whites to 19 points. However. the team once again displayed a powerful defense and held the teachers score- less while 19 points was more than enough to clinch an easy victory. Strong defensive platoons displayed by both clubs repelled all scoring threats in the first period, but the Bucs began to roll in the second. After the ball had been moved 55 yards from Blair's seven to the Montclair 37, the Bucs scored on 3 plays. Elekes toted the pigskin through Montclair's stubborn defense for the 6 points. No further scoring developed. and the half ended 6 to 0 in favor of the Bucs. In the third quarter, Pete Longo's two yard drive capped a tough 35 yard march down field and gave the Bucs their second touchdown, The point was good and the score stood 13 to 0. The scoring ended with Blair's third T.D. on a 30 yard pass play to Dom Desiderio. Once again the rocky Buc defense shone as they stopped the opponent's defense in its tracks. The hard blocking and tackling by guards Iohn Polzer and Vince DeFranco and tackles Ron Melnik and lim McCreedy took the fight out of the teachers and paved the way for Blair's second victory of the campaign. A comparatively strong Lawrenceville team was the next victim in the path of the renowned Blair football machine. which proved its superior power by dumping the Bed and Black in an overwhelming 37-7 victory. This triumph was especially sweet for Coach Kuk who had F1112 SllTlmS john Polzer 575: 9, .

But this was Blair's day. Perhaps the greatest exhibi- tion of spirit. power. and hard driving football ever seen on the hill was staged by the Bucs as they battered the previously unbeaten opponents into hapless submission. From the first quarter to the final gun. Blair completely outfought and outplayed Iersey rivals and easily proved which combo would be the strongest in New Iersey Prep School ranks. Blair's initial score came when Ion Cheston cracked over from the one yard line after a 62 yard march down- field. featured by Bob Desiderio's 56 yard dash to the 14. ln the second quarter the Buc's powerful forward wall shoved the Laurentians all over the field. as Melnik. McCreedy. Polzer. DeFranco and Simms consistently mauled opposing backs for big losses. The Bucs scored their second T.D. in this period as Q.B. Walt Vallari drove one yard to pay dirt, capping an 89 yard march. Blair's third touchdown was set up by Big lim McCreedy's recovery of a Lawrenceville fumble deep in the opponent's territory. Bob Desiderio followed with a 21 yard gallop to the goal line and his first of two touchdowns. Dom Desiderio, snagging beautiful passes all afternoon. grabbed one of brother Bobs long heaves for the fourth Buc's score, a play covering 45 yards. Iohn Polzer once again missed his fourth conversion attempt. Not satisfied with 24 points, the Blue and Whites scored again in the second period on Elekes line plunge from the ll. This play' followed another flip to Dom Desiderio which set up the touchdown drive by big lim. This time Bill Minder. a junior. successfully booted the point. The score at half time gave Blair a 31 point edge. The third quarter saw Lawrenceville net their only T.D. of the game. After several desperation heaves by reserve quarterback Davies. halfback, Ackerman slipped off his own right tackle for 5 yards and pay dirt. The point was good and the Red and Black had seven points and their only opportunity to cheer throughout the afternoon. Although the Bucs were held scoreless in the third quarter. they added one more in the fourth on Bob Desi- derio's spectacular 96 yard run. This completed the Buc's scoring spree and the final score ended gloriously in a 37-7 victory for the faithfuls of old Blair Hall. The next contest saw the unbeaten squad put to rout the game but weaker sailors of Admiral Farragut Acad- emy. 49-0. Blair began rolling from the opening gun as Ierry Wynn lugged the ball 85 yards to pay dirt on the kickoff. Before the swabbies could catch their breath.

On the first play of the second quarter. Bob Desiderio's 35 yard run netted Blair's third T.D. and four plays later Elekes plunges once again, this time for 43 yards and the fourth score. Minder made it four in a row as he split the uprights once again. The scoring closed as two more touchdowns by Don Knott and Pete Longo made it 48-0. Minder ended the day by successfully booting the 49th point which gave him seven straight extra points. In the first away game of the season, the Bucs con- tinued to roll as they ran their victory skein to five straight with a decisive 46-7 victory at Hill. Big Iohn Elekes led the Buccaneer's scoring parade with three touchdowns. On the third play of the game lim romped 35 yards for his first six points. Minder kicked his eighth straight conversion. After a Buc interception by line backer Fritz Simms. Elekes, behind great blocking, plowed through the Hill defense for 40 yards and his second touchdown. Minder made it nine straight. Hill stayed in the game, however, on a down-field march to pay dirt as Hoffman. the captain, plunged from the four. The point was good and the score stood 14-7. Despite the opposition's game defense. the Bucs couldn't be stopped. Pete Longo raced 33 yards for Blair's third touchdown and Minder's ninth straight point ended the first half scoring. Early in the third period Walt Vallari's short T.D. drive climaxed a crashing Blair offensive march downfield. Minder converted and the Buc's led 28-7. Regaining possession of the pigskin, the Blue and Whites drove for their fifth touchdown. Elekes. driving up the middle, hit pay dirt and his last T.D. of the game. Minder made it a great 11 straight. Two further touchdowns in the fourth quarter by the Desiderio brothers ended the romp, a great 46-7 victory for the Buccaneers. Like stalwarts DeFranco, Simms and Polzer blocked magnificently, while Melnik and McCreedy, defensive stars. tackled savagely. It was a happy throng of Blair students that returned on the Hill after the fine showing of their undefeated eleven. Before a Father's Day crowd. greatly hampered by the weather, the Bucs remained undefeated as they soundly belted a hapless Bordentown Military- Institute squad for their second loss of the season. Not even the adverse weather conditions could check the Bucs as the backs, behind excellent blocking, reeled off four long runs. A 51 yard gallop by Ierry Wynn set the stage for Walt Vallar's two yard plunge and Blair's first taste of pay dirt. A pass interception by Bob Conod and a 27 yard run by Bod Desiderio gave Blair its second T.D. Minder kicked his only point of the day. A short time later fullback Elekes scored six more points on a 38 yard drive through the B.M.I. secondary. No further scoring developed in the first half. but, at the start of the third quarter, the Bucs capitalized on a poor center and hit the B.M.I. ball carrier in his own end zone for a safety. Pete Longo then returned the Admiral Fggmquf goes under, Desiderio outruns Montclair end. 1 t 'U' ensuing kickoff 58 yards to the opponent's two. Follow- ing an offside penalty Bob Desiderio scored his second T.D. of the game through the line. Longo then scored the final tally on a three yard plunge which climaxed a 37,yard drive. Stars of this 33-U win were Flon Melnik on defense, and little Pete Longo on the offensive attack. Despite the old adage which says there is no favorite in the Blair-Peddie football games, the 48th annual meet- ing of these keen rivals did not quite follow suit. Blair's unstoppable football machine was hitting on all cylinders and the squads were far from being equal in strength. In fact, the Bucs were 59 points stronger than the hap- less opponents from Hightstown and the final score read 62-3. Encouraged by the news of a great Buc upset in soccer. the gridiron giants decided to really make this Blair's day. After Pete Longo ran the opening kickoff 41 yards to the Blair 46 yard line, the Bucs scored almost immed- iately as Bob Desiderio took the ball from Walt Vallari on the third play from scrimmage and raced 53 yards around right end to score. Bill Minder kicked the point. Despite a tightening of Peddie's defense. Blair scored 10 plays later as Bob Desiderio found the end zone again on a nine yard plunge. Elekes continued the romp as he blasted his way 38 yards to score and came back to tally again after a Blair interception by- Iohn Polzer had brought the ball to the Peddie eleven. Minder kicked both points. After a successful pass play which carried the ball down to the Peddie 16, Bob Desiderio swept right end for six points and his third T.D. of the game. Minder did it again, and the score at the half stood 35-3, Peddie's three points coming on a first period field goal by Captain Bob Felver. Blair continued to move as the third quarter began. McCreedy blocked a Peddie kick and Melnik, Blair's outstanding lineman, fell on it for the 41st point. Minder pierced the uprights again to make it 42-3. Elekes and Vallari were the next to hit pay dirt: Iim on a 47 yard power play and Walt on a three yard sneak. Minder booted both conversions and the score stood, 55-3. Little Don Knott added the last six points as he sped 20 yards to score. Minder ended the season magnificently by booting his seventh point of the game to complete the scoring of a resounding 62-3 victory for the Blue and White eleven. Once more Blair's great line stopped the opponent's offensive attack in its tracks as Big Bob Felver, Peddie's only hope for success. was held to an average of minus one half yard for 15 carries. So ended Blair's greatest football season in thirty-six years and perhaps the greatest exhibition of combined athletic ability ever witnessed at the school. Post season statistics showed that Blair compiled a total of 286 pbints to the opposition's 17. Leading ball carriers were Iim Elekes and Bob Desiderio with 72 points apiece, followed by Pete Longo and Walt Vallari with 24. Ierry Wynn, Dom Desiderio. and Don Knott with 18. and Ion Cheston and Ron Melnik with 6. Minder kicked 20 conversions and Iohn Polzer 6.

This year's captain Dave Hunziker and goalie Dave Lantzy were the only veterans of last year's team while some experience was found in Steve Hall, Dave Brackbill, Ismael Valles and Tony Cera, all reserves on 1950's aggregation. Forward Bill Bueno, who had seen some action in his native Colombia, provided the extent of experi- ence that Coach Marcial could round up. However, Dick Bower, Chuck Phillips, Bob Rath, Iohn VanBrederode, Marshall Whit- field and Humberto Mata, all new to the game, did a terrific job in filling the remaining positions. To begin the season's play, the booters, alter only two days of practice, took to the home field against Sussex High School. A goal by Valles and Cera failed to be enough as the Bucs lost 5-2. In the next encounter, the team once again met Sussex, this time on the op- ponent's field. Overcoming a two-goal disadvantage at halftime, the Bucs, be- hind fine defensive play and two goals by Captain Hunziker and Zarvos, man- aged to save the game as it ended in a 2-all deadlock. With five postponements scattered in between, the Buccaneers lost their next Marshall Whitfield Dave Lantzy three games. The first was a 4-1 defeat at the hands of an underdog Perkiomen team. Hill then defeated the Bucs 4-0, while Lawrenceville, despite a gallant Blair fight in the first half, defeated the Bucs by a 3-0 score. Few people outside of the Blair Soccer Team themselves gave the Bucs much of a chance as they faced their last game of the season against Peddie. The Peddie News earlier had stated that Blair was fielding one of the weakest teams ever to play in the series. A well-known New Jersey paper went as far as to predict a Blair defeat by at least five goals. As the game began it looked like the previous predictions were true as Peddie's Sala booted a goal in the opening min- utes of the contest. However. this goal seemed to encourage the Bucs and a few plays later a good bit of passing by the Bucs resulted in a goal by Bueno that knotted the score. Not satisfied, the Bucs scored again on a beautiful pass from VanBrederode to Valles who headed it in making the score 2-1 in favor of Blair. Finally, with just six minutes to go in the contest and victory in their grasp. a scramble in front of the Bucs' goal re- sulted in a score by Deemes of Peddie. The game remained in a 2-all deadlock. Although the entire team deserves Action at Peddie goal credit for the Peddie game, special men- tion should go to Dave Lantzy and Chuck Phillips who both did a great job in ward- ing off opposing attacks. To the soccer team and their fine coach, Ferd Marcial, goes the heartiest congratu- lations for their sportsmanship, determina- tion and drive throughout the year and their fine representation of Blair.

The rest represented the sophomore and junior classes. Lack of personnel gave the Blue and White some trouble which made it necessary to double-up in several events, thereby weak- ening the stronger members of the team. However, de- spite these factors. the Bucs came through with a final score of 3 wins and 5 losses. The Mermen's first victory of the season was over Wyoming Seminary. Although only a few first places were taken by the Bucs, the number of second and third places clinched the win for Blair. Dickison, Hasel- man, and Paulus made the three first places of that meet. Following the Wyoming meet. the Blair squad met the powerful Hill team. Armstrong and Grohe of Hill aided in the fight to give the win to Hill by a score of 59-16. After a loss to Hill, the team went on to defeat Rahway High School by a score of 49-17. Next came N. Y. M. A.. which the tankmen licked by a score of 47-28. A loss to Peddie by a score of 61-14 set the team back slightly. Peddie had their usual strong team. Of the eight meets of the season, one of the foremost was the Blair-N. Y. M. A. meet. It was this meet that the team recorded their third win of the season. In the 40 yard free style event, Fritz Trinler, a newcomer to Blair this year from the Netherland Antilles ,took first in 20 seconds ilat, followed by Dave Bannerman. one of the seniors on the team. Dave took second in 20.2 seconds. Moving on to the 100 yard breast stroke. Dave Rosen and George Carpenter gave Blair a one-two victory in that event. Dave, placing first, recorded a time of 1:15.6 minutes. while George followed close behind. turning in a time of 1:19.8 minutes. In the 200 yard free style. Bruce Haselman, Blair's only entry in that event, took a hard fought second in a running time of 2:25.3 minutes. Bill Brook placed second for the Bucs in the 100 yard backstroke race. His time was 1:12.5 minutes, making the score to that point in meet show a difference of eight points in favor of Blair. Don Dickison, one of the return- ing men from last year's team, took second in the 100 yard free style event in 58.3 seconds. Dave- Paulus and Red Nicholl, both new boys at Blair this year, sprang to a two-three victory for Blair in the fancyi diving contest. These boys were lacking in much previous experience, but showed great improvement throughout the winter months. The Blair tankmen swept the remaining three events. Free Style Relay Team E which included the 120 yard individual medley, the 180 yard medley relay, and the 160 yard tree style relay. On February 22, the team travelled to the United States Military Academy at West Point. Although the final score of that meet was 51-24 in lavor of the Army, Blair did much better than was expected. Dickison took first in the 100 yard iree style event. recording his best time of the season, 57.1 seconds. Trinler, Rosen, and Brook all missed first places by a matter oi a few very valuable seconds. They did. however, capture second places in hard fought battles. One dual meet preceeded the state meet which was held on the lst oi March at Lawrenceville. That meet was with the Lawrentians, in which the powerful Red and Black swamped the Bucs by a score oi 57-18. The state meet did prove more successful for the team. at which the Blair squad made a superb showing. Several places in that meet are as follows: 100 yard back stroke, Brook took sixth place for one point: 100 yard tree style. Dicki- son took filth tor two points: 220 yard iree style relay team ot Haselman, Bannerman, Trinler, and Dickison took sec- ond tor ten points: and the 150 yard medley relay team took third for seven points. The medley relay team con- sisted oi Rosen, Brook, and Bannerman, In addition to the scheduled meets. the team made the trip to Swarthmore College tor an invitational meet. The tree style relay team of Haselman, Carpenter, Trinler. and Dickison, undefeated until the state meet at Lawrenceville. took second place. Dickison in the 100 yard tree style and Trinler in the 50 yard tree style events took second and third places respectively. All team members, being slightly more mature. will be good point scorers next year and should have a very successful season.

Despite the postponement of games due to adverse weather conditions and a campus measle epidemic, the Buccaneers, behind the experienced coaching of Mr. Haskins, came through with an impressive 8-2 record for the season. The team was made up of mostly new boys to the Hill this year with the exception of Tom Hart and George Greene who both played on last year's junior varsity team. Some of the more outstanding victories of the long campaign came in beating Peddie twice, trouncing Wyoming Seminary, and besting a favored Lawrenceville team, which later became New Iersey State champions. The only two losses came at the hands of an underrated Hill squad and a post season loss to a smooth working St. Benedict's aggre- gation which knocked the Bucs out of the state tournament. The usual starting lineup consisted of Dick Jenkins at center, Bill Maltzen and Tom Hart at forwards and Bob Davis, Walt Vallari, lim Elekes and Bob Conod, all of whom saw a good deal of action at the guard spots. These boys saw most of the action, but were strongly backed up by such experienced substitutes as Don Vilmar, Ed Gray, George Folkes, Win Dobbins, and Mike Zissu. This year's season began with a few com- paratively easy tune-up games in preparation for the remainder of the campaign which the squad realized would be tough. i The first away game of the season brought Blair its fifth straight victory as they beat our arch rivals, Peddie, 52-48. ln the next game the Bucs, back on their owwn court, took their first loss of the campaign from a strong Hill team. A good third quarter for Hill set the stage for Blair's 65-B3 defeat. Finally on Feb. 16, the action-hungry Bucs went back to work again and beat Peddie for Two more for Jenkins ALL the second time, 76-52. In the last encounter of the official '52 sea- son, Blair overcame a 5-point Lawrenceville lead at half-time to defeat the favored Red and Black squad by a 63-53 score. After the successful closing of the season, the Bucs traveled down to Lawrenceville where they met St. Benedicts in the first round of the state championships held in the new Lavino fieldhouse. Despite a bitter struggle all the way, the Bucs were defeated, 59-53 and eliminated from the tournament. Among the leading scorers on the club were Dick Ienkins with l88 points, Bill Maltzen with 109, Bob Davis with 106, Hart 93, and Vilmar 66. Other point getters were Elekes and Conod with 27 apiece, Vallari with 20, Folkes 15, Greene 7, and Gray and Dobbins with 3 apiece. So ended another successful season of bas- ketball at Blair. Special recognition should go to Dick Jenkins, Bill Maltzen, and Tom Hart for their fine ball handling and outstanding scor- ing punch and to Mr. Haskins who gave the club that needed spark which carried the team through the long hard season.

With Ierry Martin, Marshall Whitfield, Bill Warner and Tony Cera the only returning lettermen, Coach Dalling began filling the re- maining seven weight classes by bringing up Chuck Phillips and Art White from last year's junior Bucs. Newcomers Whitey Enholm, Iohn Polzer, Ronnie Melnik, Piet Van Schaick and Dick Frank rounded out the squad that opposed Lawrenceville. Wrestling against the more experienced Red and Black Matmen, the Buccanneers came up with only three winners as Martin and Melnik both pinned their op- ponents and Piet Van Schaik won by a default. The next meet proved to be tougher yet. The first eight Bucs to tangle with the Haverford opposition went down fighting, especially in the cases of Enholrn, Cera and Martin, who lost by only 2 points. Van Schaick, the ninth man, tied and then Ronnie Melnik broke the ice by collecting his second fall.

Billy Warner, Iohn Polzer and Bonnie Melnik were crowned State Champs in their respective weight classes. Bobby Enholm and Ierry Mar- tin placed second, and Marshall Whitefield took a third. Not having done spectacularly well at the Lehigh Interscholastics for the last four years. the Buccaneers were not expected to defeat many more powerful and experienced teams.

The Hill George School Peddie Doubles Martin and Albert. In winning their first contest 6-3 over Wy- oming Seminary the Blair tennis team dis- played excellent balance and available power. Coach Crowley selected Christ Stengel, who has a fast serve and is an accurate shot, to be the first man. Also impressive is the poise and timing shown by Albert, Hunziker, and Elkins. Martin, always forcing his man, commands a fast and powerful game. Doubles combina- tions will include Braunstein, Barrett and Weber. The team will meet very stifi oppo- sition this year against I-Iill, Lawrenceville and our traditional rivals, Peddie.

Coaches Thomson and Hall are naming Enholm to lead off this year. Bueno, who plays a veryfsteady game, will lend him support in the first foursome. Sussman, Ball, Mack- lowe, and Mellin will fill the remaining po- sitions. In reserve, the team has able golfers in Davis and Watson.

This year, the I.V. football team, coached by Mr. Sporborg and Mr. Brock, made a good record. Their iirst contest of the season was against Hackettstown H. S. which was a fast and rough game. Some of the backfield stars for this game were: Pete Cooper, Harry Koch, Gus Miller, and Fred Stutzmann. Another close game was with Newton H.S. Due to Newton's experience gained in other games, the junior Bucs were no match for the hard fighting visitors. Ends Red Nicholl and Ed lanes contributed yardage for Blair by their numerous pass catching. Bob Lerner, Iohn Bieling, Ed Llorens, and Dave Borghard gave their backfield' excellent protection and inter- ference. This year's lightweight team, coached by Mr. Bailey and Mr. Bode and veteran ball carrier Bill Warner, went through the season with a record of 2 wins and 3 losses while J. V.

The game against our arch rival was a close one, as the Bucs were leading at the half, 12-O. How- ever, Peddie's weight and experience helped them in the second half where they surged ahead to win by a close margin of 13-12. Bill Warner, Al Grande, Larry Albert, Mike Zissu. and Bob Enholm were outstanding as backs, while Don Ginter, lack Zipes, Iohn Hendershot and Tony Escriba, were outstanding linemen M i 'ff X , 7:.., ss Q 'geFS:,z i. .fl V, xi 1 W an ' H ual for the season. A few weeks later, the light- weight Bucs got revenge for their close defeat by beating Newton 13-0 in a game played in mud and pouring rain. The l.V. soccer team had no scheduled games this season, but they were kept busy by scrimmaging with the senior squad. Such players as Ken Rosen, lim Youngleson, and Fritz Trinler should prove to be good players in the near' future. Under the coaching of Mr. Horner, this year's J.V.

WRESTLI G junior varsity basketball team compiled a rec- ord of 9 wins and 3 losses. They thoroughly trounced our arch rival Peddie, once on their own court and once on B1air's court, setting a new court record oi 780 points scored in a single game. Chris Stengel was high scorer for the season while Len Walker, Dick Kahn. and Bob Lerner were outstanding on both de- fense and offense. The junior Bucs nipped Franklin H.S. by a close 2 points scored by Bob Lerner in the last minute of play on a long set shot from mid-court. This was the closest game of the season, going nip and tuck all the way. They also beat such teams as Hill I.V. and Lawrenceville I.V. Having no scheduled meets this year, the I.V. swimming team was occupied with sup- plying swimmers to fill the varsity berths and to give the varsity men competition during practice. While helping the senior squad, they also gained valuable experience for the com- ing season. Good prospects for future years , . Q..

Although the junior Bucs wrestling squad had no scheduled meets this season, they con- tributed much toward the varsity's success by supplying sparring partners. Men who may fill next year's berths on the varsity are Pete Vreeland, lim Mellin, and Al Grande. Last year the junior Bucs baseball team com- piled a record of 7 wins and 4 losses, and from the evidence ot their tirst game against Newton, it looks as if this year's team will equal if not better last season's record. Coaches Bode and Brock have many returning veterans from last year who will strengthen the squad this year. Some of the returning let- termen are Bill Warner, Ismael Valles, Iohn Van Brederode, Don King, Iohn Hendershot, and Bob Lerner. For the first time in recent years, the junior Bucs will play Peddie, while most of the other games are with high schools. As last year, they will play an ll-game schedule. J. V.
