Until three years ago, no one at Christchurch had heard of a Wattosaurus. Well, at that time one came walking stiff-legged onto our campus from the mountains of West Virginia. We have not had an unhappy moment since. If a student ever reaches the depths of despair, he has only to spend some time with Watt, and he will soon be feeling better. In his years here, Watt has participated in foot- ball, basketball, winter track, and spring track. Also he is a member of the Varsity Club and has taken an active part in the Science Club and Social Activities. We will all miss Watt next year-nothing will be the same without his jokes. However, as he moves on to bigger and better things, our best wishes go with him. Walter Dunnington Shields, Jr Huntington, West Virginia

Edward Andrew Saccio El Salvador, C.A. Three years ago Christchurch School was liberally endowed with a combination of man, athlete, and scholar, in the form of one Edward Saccio. Since his arrival at Christchurch, Ed has contributed greatly to our little community. Among his many activities may be included J .V. soccer, J.V. basket- ball, and varsity soccer. He has also been a member of the Dramatics Club and has been on the Social Activities Committee. Ed's many hobbies include bowling, water-skiing, shooting the bull expecially about his wild motor- cycle escapades in El Salvador, and traveling around and meeting new people. After graduating from Christchurch, Ed plans to pursue the conquest for knowledge on a higher level and wishes to major in history and economics or intemational relations. As a career, Ed is con- sidering a position in the foreign service.

It was four years ago. A few of us were down at the waterfront the day school opened. All of a sudden we noticed a giant wave sweeping up the river with a surfer on its crest. Thus John made his entrancetoChristchurch from Hawaii. We have sinced then convinced him that Virginia is not at all bad, and now he lives across the river. John has never been lacking when it came to sports. He has lettered in football, basketball, and baseballg as a matter of fact, he has received the Bill Brill Baseball Award. For the past two years he has been a member of the Varsity Club. In his senior year he was a member of the Monitor Corps. John has done well with his academics and has often been on the Headmaster's List. We wish him the best of luck next year in college.
