Jofm Wfiitnsy 'J )s.ijton “Like father, like son” — John’s father is banker and John has been treasurer of his class for the last two years. There hasn't been a large discrepancy yet, so John is trusted with the finances. John is also trusted with part of the destiny of Breck’s hockey team this year. He has played on the varsity team for four years and each year contributed his “all” to gain the respect of his fellow players who elected him captain this year. This respect is found not only in hockey but also in football and track. In football John's size is his only drawback and he has more than made up for it with heart. Last year he was “most valuable” on the j.v. and this year to everybody’s surprise, he started on defense for the varsity and in the last game scored on a long, determined run. In track all he does is run, and he is said to be one of the best runners in the M.I.S.L. John has also added a bright side to the school with his clever comments in his column, “Morries Stories,” in the Bugle. No one has escaped his barbs, but on the other hand, no one has resented them. This has made John one of the most successful journalists at Brcck within recent years. John will leave a gap in the school when he leaves, but it is certain that it won’t be in the finances. Breck will miss the hot-rod Falcon, and the sharp wit of John Peyton. 25 Eat, drink, and be Morric.

Entered Brcck 1958. football: j.v. 3,4, v. 5,6, basketball: j.v. 3.4,5, choir 5, glee club 5,6, band 3,4,5. yoi'rExt A little quiet and a little shy, but always friendly and courteous: such is a picture of “Pizza.” This picture also depicts a hard working dependable student and athlete. 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

Entered Brock 1956, football: j.v. 3.4,5; v. 6. hockey: j.v. 3,4,5; v. 6. track: 3,4,5.6. Bugls staff 6. Master's Award: Spanish 5. 0 o ci 2 acuis “Rusty’s” sense of humor places him in any phase of school life. He could tell stories (and oh what stories!), turn a speech class into hysterics, and more important could take as much joking as he dished out. Rather than shooting for something by himself. Rollie usually liked to work with other people. But nevertheless he worked: sometimes he would start a project such as a class party, or at other times he would gladly help others in decorating a dance. Boys like Rusty are needed to unite a group behind a task. Anyone likes to work hardest at the things he likes best. Race taught a skiing club this summer. In other areas Roland ran as fullback on Breck’s second varsity squad, skated on the hockey team, and threw the shot in spring sport. But whether he liked something or not, he would participate, and he would work hard. Once Rusty was awarded a Master’s Certificate for Spanish. Rollie placed a girl as a Homecoming attendant and at other social affairs always added a laugh or two plus the company of some very nice dates. Race was a riot! 26 You load sixteen tons ...
