John W. Lowther EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Roderick A. Irwin ASSISTANT EDITOR Gerald R. Ewald BUSINESS MANAGER THE 1954 REBEL CARLISLE MILITARY SCHOOL BAMBERG, SOUTH CAROLINA FOREWORD The yearbook staff takes intense pleasure in presenting to its readers this, the 1954 edition of the Rebel. We have energetically endeavored to produce a yearbook sufficiently qualified to bear the name of the school which it represents. Page by page, we have attempted to display in pictures and words the broad and abundant life which a cadet at this institution shares. The picture seen above portrays the first steppingstone to the fulfillment of Carlisle’s fun- damental principle: CARLISLE DEVELOPS MANLY MEN.” As you, the judges of our attainments, unfold the contents of this book, it is our sincere desire that you will realize how this fundamental prin- ciple is achieved. If this wish is fulfilled, our reward will be obtained. 2 OUR HEADMASTER YOUNG GENTLEMEN: To accumulate wealth honestly is a commend- able virtue, but real success is not measured in dollars. It is determined by the amount of happi- ness we bring to others. Sincerely, James F. Risiier, Colonel-Headmaster. 3 DEDICATION We, the 1954 Rebel Staff, proudly dedicate this edition of the Rebel to Carlisles Matron, Mrs. Jessie W. Kennedy. “Grandma, as she is appropriately nicknamed by the Cadet Corps, has for nearly twenty-one years been responsi- ble for much of the success and improvement of our school. Mrs. Kennedy was born and reared in Willi- ston, South Carolina. She attended high school in near-by Barnwell. After graduation, before her job at Carlisle, she was employed as a drug- gist for a number of years. We sincerely hope, “Grandma,” that the dedi- cation of this years Rebel will serve as a com- panionable symbol of our affection and appreci- ation for your ceaseless contributions toward molding a better institution. 4 COLOR GUARD Left to Right: GATCII CARSCADDEN HICKLIN ZEMP CARLISLE FACULTY LT.

Upon their competent shoulders rests the responsi- bility of training the men of tomorrow, so that they may have able minds with which to mold a better world. After arriving at Carlisle, a cadet soon realizes that the faculty members are not instructors alone, but sympathetic and understanding friends who will gladly listen to any individual prob- lem, and do their utmost to help him find a solution. They also greatly influence in the cadet’s mind the need for friendship and cooperation with his fellow man. We, the Cadet Corps of ’54 wish to have this opportunity to express our deepest thanks and appreciation to you, our faculty, for the splendid scholastic and character-molding instruction which you have rendered.

Every duty except night guard extends for a period of twenty- four hours. Each day at noon, the new guard and retiring guard form to ob- serve a guard mount routine. The officer of the day, a commissioned officer, is in charge of each guard. He is fully responsible for maintain- ing the good conduct and discipline of cadets at school and on leave through the duties of the officers of the guard, sergeants of the guard, and military police. The changing of the guard should not be taken for granted, for without guard duty, there would be no controlling element in the school's routine. JO BATTALION From competent morale, discipline, and cooperation stems the excellent progress which the Cadet Corps has displayed during the current year. Efficiently supervised by Capt. Waddy Thompson, Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and Capt. William Scaffe, Band Director, many steps toward a more capable organization have been established. A new system for rewarding the best drilled company has been de- veloped and put into practical use. A regularly scheduled dress parade on Sunday afternoon, a rigid inspection of barracks and personnel each Saturday morning, class- room instruction twice weekly on military science and tactics, and a daily drill routine maintain a high degree of coordination within the corps. li BATTALION CADET MAJOR OLIN HOLLIS Commander MISS DELORES BRABHAM Sponsor CADET CAPTAIN JAMES BRADIN Adjutant MRS.

THE HONOR COUNCIL Discipline at Carlisle is very largely handled by the cadets them- selves. When an offense involves a breach of honor, the offender is brought before the Honor Council which is composed of all the cadet captains, presided over by the cadet major with Captain Waddy Thompson, P.M.S. T., as the faculty advisor. The Honor Council gathers evidence from all sides and then, serving as a jury, recommends punishment to the Headmaster. Col. Risher makes a final decision and issues the results as proper means of punishment. 24 CROSS SABEM CLUB The Cross Saber Club, one of the most highly respected organiza- tions of the school, is composed of the commissioned officers from the Corps of Cadets. Honor, loyalty, and duty are three characteristic qualities from which this club derives its principles. Frequent meetings provide a means for the careful planning of matters pertaining to the development and betterment of Carlisle. Every member of this club stands ready and willing to help other cadets with any individual problems which they may encounter.

NON-COM CLUB Forming the bulk of the institution's military organization, the non-commis- sioned officers comprise a sound basis for the enforcement of all regulations and discipline at Carlisle. “Esprit de corps,” a governing factor in the school's activities depends largely upon this group. From these officers, according to their conduct, morale, and capabilities, the commissioned officers for the succeeding year are selected. Performance of the duties assigned them provides these officers with a wisdom of leadership, a sense of responsibility, and an enlightenment of human understand- ing, which plays a most significant part in molding the sturdy character of man. 26 CLASSES 27 OLIN W.

Will there be happiness and prosperity for us to share or darkness and despair? Will we live to enjoy a normal life’s span or will it be slighted by some unforeseen fate? As “depression babies,” these questions face us without an ap- parent solution. Our next step is uncertain. The decision as to what course we shall take remains unknown. Our character must be molded or our lives will be in the hands of an uncontrollable faculty. We, the Seniors of 1954, will depart from this institution keeping in mind those habits of character which are most respected. We will help other less fortunate men in building their’s accordingly. Our character will be built for God. It will be made four-square, with a spiritual side, a moral side, a mental side, and a physical side. We will take advantage of all favorable opportunities, always considering our fellow man’s wants and desires. Our deeds will be as seeds of fate, sown here on earth, but bring- ing forth their harvest in eternity. Our burdens will be lifted by a sound faith in God. As minute parts of an infinitely large universe, we will study to have ourselves approved as workmen who need not be afraid or ashamed. In all things, the standards and virtues of life set by our forefath- ers will be practiced and preserved, and then bestowed upon future men for the building of a better world. Above all, God’s word will serve as a comforting guide, leading us out of the darkness and valleys of despair, up to the bright plateaus of hope and happiness. Yes, we, the Senior Class of 1954, will so live as to glorify the Kingdom of God. 42 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY The year: 1965, The place: Hollywood, California, The scene: A group of visitors touring the lots of C M. S., formally M. G. M. Studios. When the guide gets us past the gatekeeper, Leo DuBose, we inspect set I where Pudge Brasington is found directing the filming of “The Young Frog With A Horn.” Cursing his cameraman. Tommy Henson, one of the best in the business, for not getting the right angle on the great actor, Wood, we see producer, Cecil B, McConnell, finishing “The Saga Of Co. fD’.” As wTe wander by the lot dispensary, we find David “Nightingale” Young treating child actor, Harold West, who just found out that he has to get a crew cut for his latest role. Glancing at the bulletin board, we notice that the cast of the new western, “Ride Clear Of Bamberg,” has been posted. Found to be playing the starring role is Jim “Sagebrush” Bradin as the Texas Kid with his trusty Mexican sidekick, “Poncho” Rodriguez. On set II where the filming of “Titanic Bill” is in process, star Gerald Ewald is seen posing for an ad- vertisement for Write Right stickpads. At the corner of the set we locate the janitor, Tommy Catch, conversing with head propman Rape over who is going to sweep up the sawdust. Arriving from Sarasota, Fla., the winter home of The Ring Bros., Bannister, and Bessinger Circus, Jay Reber tells us that he is playing the starring role as the “Fat Man” in a new picture, called, “The Greatest Schmoe On Earth.” From his information we learn that “Michael Patrick” Gumkowski is here for his part in “The Fighting Irish.” Set III reveals cameraman Addison Irwin testing his latest invention, “Waterproof photography magazines that can be read in the bathtub ' Arguing with the president of C. F. Miller Co., the inventor wants the books printed without having the full page photo of the great lover. Ten Broek, on the back. Disgusted with such a fantasy, our luck is struck as mailmen Maxcy OTuel and Red Miller drive up in a new turbo-jet PEAVEYmobile. It seems that they are delivering a stack of fan mail to the new star of the Tarzan pictures. Slats “Johnny Weismuller” Shiell. In the newsreel section we locate the great narrators Sass, Hinson, and Knight, doing a special Russian sound track to be shown in the nationwide Waldrep Barber Shops, Inc. This particular newsreel is taken from the experiments of the great physicists, Dedmon and Metis, who are now working for the new Premier of the U. S. S. R., Ivan Kellum, Moving on to the lot commissary, many familiar faces are seen. The first that we lay our eyes upon is “Buzzy” Walsh, the sodajerk, who is serving “Monk” Porter, the star of a terrifying jungle epic, “Apeman,” and Richard Jones the great Shakespearian actor. Vodka cocktails and tomato juice. Over in the corner, kicking his face, is the new Boris Karloff, Philip Edwards, Im- mediately behind is Joe Hunter who just arrived from France where he was making “Cyrano de Bergerac.” Set VII reveals that the replica of the leaning Tower of Pisa, designed by the great architect, J. T. Anglin, is just being completed. This building is, of course, being erected for the filming of, “Joe Pundt, Modem Galileo.” Technical advisors for the film are Bruce Thompson, the great physicist, and Joel Watson, the world's top mathematician. Our attention is suddenly called to the newsreel studio again where crews are being rushed out to film a fire at the Alderson Match Co. In our haste to the incident we run into none other than “Chip” Clark and “Red” Parker who tell us that they have just completed a new mechanical brain. They tried to tell me that it works fine but they still can’t figure out how it does College Algebra, From a sound stage comes the magnificent voice of the great tenor, Alvin Worley. But wait! He’s chang- ing from opera to the “blues”! He just discovered that his lover Marilyn Moneyroe has deserted him. Well, those things can’t last forever. On an adjoining stage Leonard Nagy, the dancing master, is trying to teach Christie, the popular “groa- ner,” how to dance while he sings. Sitting to rest a bit, we see one of the studio news- papers in a trash can. After reading an interesting edi- torial on the French language by editor John Lowther, we go on to the news of foreign movies. We read that the Globetrotters, with their two great stars, Feather- ston and Jimmy Dixon are making a picture in Hol- land, this announcement being made by their manager. Bill Puckett. Also overseas is Bobby Page, a star in the German movie, “Life of Field Marshall Von Runstedt.” Playing as a French spy in the same picture, with a familiar name, is Pierre Player. In Arabia there is Jerry Ruggles taking the leading part in “The Shick of Araby.” Joe Minshew acts as a 1st Sgt. in the Foreign Legion. Down in Mexico, “Poncho” Douberly and Leon Wilson are co-starring in the “Bullfighter.” On the personal page everyone is shocked to learn that the great lover, “Valentino” Lipscomb has di- vorced his twenty-first wife. We also notice that Don McKnight and Sam Wilson were mixed up in a night club brawl over who was the worst actor. They’ve been released now by the Hollywood Police Chief “Lucky” Berry. A wreck at the edge of the lot attracts our attention as gangster, Eddie Jefferson, in his get-away car, driven by “Killer” Kitching, ran into the watchman, Worrell. This happened after the crooks held up the office and wounded the President of G. M. S., Cordon Hensley and his bodyguards, Brooke Roberts and “Mangier” Mitchell. Preparing to leave we drop by set XII where we notice “Hammerhands” Hollis ana “Kid” Gillion who are practicing for their roles in “Kayo Kelly.” When we stop to talk to one of the extras, Melvin Whittle, he tells us that our old pal, Johnny Thompson, is direct- ing the picture. Filing out the gate, one by one, we stop to chat with the night watchman, “Bubba” Hughes, who is just coming on duty. He points out the two guys bumming pennies on the street. They turn out to be the comedy team, Henderson and Smart, who ran into bad luck. Without hope there would be no future . . . without the future there, would be no use for hopes ... so to the Class of '54, let’s look into the future . . . but always provide for and think about the present before we let this fantasy sink too far into our “noggins.” 43 AS WE WERE 1.

John W. Lowther Editor-in-Chief The Rebel Carlisle Military School Bamberg, South Carolina Dear Captain Lowther: It was indeed a pleasure to judge the 1954 Carlisle beauties . . . A pleasure, but a difficult assignment, as all the contestants were most attractive and it was not easy to eliminate any. My choice of the winners was influenced by my ever-continuing interest in THE NATURAL GIRL. The Queen and her court were selected on the basis of (a) the features and contours of her face, (b) apparent intelligence and alertness and (c) feminine charm. My task would have been much easier had I been able to meet and talk with each one of the contestants personally, for it is a woman's inner de- velopment and personality that truly determines her beauty. Congratulations to all the contestants, to their sponsoring cadets and to you and your fellow Rebel staff members. With all very best wishes, Sincerely, 62 63 REBEL STAFF Officers RODERICK A.

A GREAT GROUP OF MEN “THE YOUTH OF TODAY REPRESENTS THE FUTURE BACKBONE OF OUR NATION OF TO- MORROW. MAY GOD BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU, AND PREPARE YOU FOR THAT DAY.” Bamberg County Bank BAMBERG, SOUTH CAROLINA “THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS SECURITY—THERE IS ONLY OPPORTUNITY!” —General Douglas A. Mac Arthur. CARLISLE MILITARY SCHOOL training is designed to de- relope alertness for opportunity and the skill and ability with which to make the most of opportunity. The Irving L. Wilson Company was organized a little more than four years ago because the founder of the company was interested more in opportunity than in security. That there was a glorious op- portunity to specialize in the manufacture of military school and college uniforms seemed to be self-evident and a challenge which the Irving L. Wilson Company has accepted. We are dedicated to the proposition of producing better uniforms at reasonable prices and to give our customers a high degree of personalized service. We are proud to be one of the uniform suppliers of the Carlisle Mili- tary School and we hope by the way in which we serve you that we will continue to merit this privilege. IRVING L.
