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.

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

For the last four years there has been somewhat of a mystery around campus. No one has ever seen Doug arrive here in the morning. He just seems to appear in room seven everyday. Well, the answer was finally discovered through an inside source. Doug procured a ride to school with a different day student each day. Doug has taken advantage of several extra- curricular activities such as track, Science Club, Seahorse, cross-country, and Headmaster's List. During his freshman year he was class secretary. As it stands now, Doug wants to become a world famous lawyer. For this reason he has had many a fine argument with the Colonel. However, should he decide to abandon the career in jurisprudence, there is always the well-established family business from which to earn a livelihood.
