Qon (Dafzby Though small in size Oak has done big things in the short three years he has been at Brcck. He was one of the two boys admitted to our class when we were sophomores, so he got a late start. He, however, wasted no time in making the Emeritus list and seriously threatening the Cum Laude list every marking period. He was one of the junior students admitted to the Cum Laude Society last year, and he has constantly proved that he was worthy of the award. Oak works very hard on school work, the Bugle, the Mustang, and as a student instructor in the chemistry lab. Athletically Oak is handicapped by his size, but he has found his place on the soccer team. He has lettered two years on the varsity soccer team. He is also a fierce competitor on the wrestling and j.v. baseball teams, and his assortment of basketball shots are a legend at Brcck. Oak has also added much to other athletics by his presence; he is one of the mast enthusiastic fans at Brcck. As a person. Oak is anything but small. He £p£aTio z is friendly and well liked — he was elected secretary of the senior class. Almost everyone has laughed one time or another at his sometimes odd jokes. He will be long remembered at Breck for his accomplishments and by the girls for what he didn't accomplish. 23 Think big Oak: it’s the little things that count.

George always has ideas for any situation and isn’t afraid to voice his opinion. Vs captain of the soccer team, George showed his love of conditioning along with a great will to win. George’s name switched from “Frenchy” to “Turkey” after his jaunt to that country through the A.F.S. Now the walls of Brcck arc filled with George’s interpretations of Turkish politics and the nauseating smell of a water pipe. George was the boy who brought the piece of paper with Robert’s Rules of Disorder to school; thus he is responsible for the panicky situation in which the class presidents found themselves. As evidenced by all the awards listed above, George is also the serious student type. Many is the time when he can lx heard bellowing throughout the library to discuss such things as the date of the previous night. Along with this “Frenchy” is ever present at Breck so- cial functions, and it is always interesting to see whom he will bring next. Without a question George has been a very loyal member of Brcck’s community. 22 Ah! Smell that Turkey.

In school no one does his homework more conscienciously than Dale; In athletics no one works harder in practice or is more dependable in games. Dale played tackle for the first string football squad, wrestled in the winter, and hefted the shot during track season. The caption for this picture, however, is not “All work and no play make Dale a dull boy.” Dale is involved whenever there is something just for fun too. Dale was known for his heroic adventures in wild duck ponds. His week-end hunting extravaganzas were the talk of the school. Dale has also gained a little fame because of the “car” he drives. It is a funny contraption called an “-csoto.” Approach Dale and his first response will probably lx “What? Where? Who? Me? Oh!” After a laugh that could only be Dale's, he'll get down to business. Dale is a very casual and nonchalant boy. The picture is now complete. Here is a boy who works as hard as he plays, with seldom a worry. It must be a Rembrandt. Here comes the bride ... 24
