German 3, Latin 5, State Ijtin Award 5, BugU 4,5,6 (editor). Wade has managed to establish himself as a sound, dependable student in his six years at Brcck. Academically, Wade is among the leaders of his class, and will probably remain so throughout college. Having discovered that success comes not without hard work, Wade was rewarded for his fine work in the fields of government and English by being selected last year to represent Brcck at Boys’ State. Everybody is proud of what he added to “his party.” Give Wade an inch and lie’ll take a mile . . . but in the right direction. He always makes use of individual capacity. Not being especially skilled in athletic competition, Wade has kept close contact with the sports nevertheless In-being a very dependable manager. Dependability has also made Wade a reputable editor of the Bugle. Again hard work made his efforts successful. What’s more important. Wade puts his efforts toward supporting others. If you see someone in a red sports jacket “swinging up a storm,” telling some “punny story, or going mad over a set of drums, it’s just Wade. In English class he’s the “jargon master”; where’s there is a drum set he’s “Kruppa II ; at dances lie’s “Elvis Unlimited.” As an individual Wade emphasizes his own capacities, but supports others’. Drat! The window’s stuck and the turn signab don’t work.

Ok oma± HooCin 3 jz[[ £.’Uj Tom is so valuable to Breck that they have kept him in the “cage” for four years, and many people have expressed regret that he will escape this year. In those four years he has been a team manager, and for the last two years, Head Manager of Athletics. This year Tom holds the post of Athletic Prefect. As a manager Tom has listened to many gripes, but he has taken it all in the stride of his job. He’s a hard worker, but never too serious to pass up a joke or two ... or three. A lot of his success can be accredited to his organizational ability. In anything from sorting athletic uniforms to guiding the senior birdseed sales Tom was a willing hand. Still much credit is due his V.W. bus. Tom’s route to the “butcher shop” would cure any casualty. Tom’s friendly greeting and smiling face in the halls has brightened the day’s of almost every student at one time or another. His readily offered assistance has many times come to the aid of students and faculty alike. For instance, he took over the pop sales at football games and a good pan of Homecoming preparations, just when it looked as if it wouldn’t get done. When Tom leaves, it will be very difficult to find a single person who would or could do the work that he did. I’ve just got to get out of that cage! 17

Now that lie is about to graduate we know he .will go on to bigger and better things, maybe even a Volkswagen. “Len was always a mover, whether it was in cars, on dates, or in athletics. He was one of the “Three Horsemen’ on the varsity football squad and a member of the “Big Four” on the wrestling team. In the spring lA e is a mainstay on Breck’s baseball diamond. After a little prodding Lee really takes hold of a situation. Once he even claimed he was going to wrestle the heavy weight, 175, and 165 divisions all at once! “M.D.” is very active in things outside his studies. For several years now he has participated in the glee club and choir. He has spent his Saturdays working as a volunteer at St. Barnabas Hospital. No matter what he does, he really likes doing it. He shows this by his effort. Who will forget the frizzy little hair growing an unusually long way down Ia c’s neck, the thick rimmed glasses, and the munchcrs that give Lee the name of Beaver? You’ll never see Lee standing around. He’s a climber headed straight for the top. 19 Ya bctcha goorn!
