In this span of time the name of Fronk has become a by-word to accompany 'brilliance in academic attainment. But, strangely enough, there is more to this 6 ft. 4 in. frame than an overgrowth of mentality. As a school leader, Mike has blossomed forth and has achieved the respect and admiration of his fellow classmates, who regard his honesty of opinion as the soundest of judgement. In the field of athletics, Mike will never astound a cheering crowd, but when his graceful right arm swings into the air two points are quickly added to the big center’s total. It is, however, in the field of journalism where Mike has added his greatest contribution to Breck School. The Bugle is primarily the work of Mike, who spends many a night burning the midnight oil over the galleys or rephrasing a late article so that the school might have a presentable paper the next afternoon. Yes, Mike is a senior that will go far in the world, for he has gone far at Breck. 26

Thomas Edward Erickson Huh??!—The typical comment made by Tom. Tom is a hard person to find around school. If you can't find him at any given moment, find the fastest and neatest car nearby and Tom will be there, nosing around trying to find out what makes it tick. But, outside his great knowledge and love of cars, Tom excels in the classroom (when he is there). Tom is also a very good athlete. He never once missed a football game and was a great asset to the team. In winter Tom was the goalie for the Varsity Hockey team. It can be truthfully said that if it wasn't for Tom, Breck would have a hard time winning at all. Tom will be missed next year. 25

John Beaumont Hall It's almost five o'clock, which means the going home rush will begin soon. The “Showboat'' will probably be in the lead. Seriously, John is not in a hurry to get away from Breck School, but is anxious to get home and hit the books. John is one of the best liked boys in the school. He may often be seen in the halls talking to a group of fellows. The usual topics of discussion are cars or girls. Is this normal? Besides being a verv likeable person, John is a hard worker. During his senior year he filled a very important job in a very capable way. He has been one of Breck's outstanding managers. Many of us appreciate the work John has done in this area of the athletic department. But when his services to Breck cease, we will miss them tremendously. 27
