WILLIAM STANLEY WESTERMAN EDGAR lll VERY school has its leaders, and Terry certainly falls into this category. President of our class for two years, he left that position for the more important one of Student Council President, in which capacity he has supervised a smoothly-functioning organization which concerns itself with all phases of our school life. Besides being Business Man- ager of the Drama Club, he portrayed the title role in The Rainmaker and the romantic lead in You Can't Take It With You. Terry also stars in athletics and can boast of be- ing a three-letter man 1he was forced to purchase a new wordrobe on which to sew all those letters1. On Thursday nights and Saturdays Terry works as a sales- man in the paint department at Gimbel's 1 Lady, you just can't paint your kitchen chartreusel 1, and in what little free time he has left accomplishes his duties as Vice-Presi- dent in Charge of Entertainment for the class's exclusive 1three members1 Greenwich Village Set, An enthusiastic lumberiack, Terry plans a career in forestry. Study hall often finds him hacking at Dudley's ankles with the window pole and yelling 'tTimber! We are confident that Terry's diverse abilities will bring him a great measure of success in the future. 20 ml. 1 Xl ll Q l m! -1 -5 4 Ymgffiwl 'll 'J v s 1 4 9 ., Q.

, jf ,V U f .11 K 472 1 X Rf ,R ll It 9 w l Entered 9th Grade ETE is the outdoorsman of the Senior Class. Besides be- ing a fresh air fiend 1he can't concentrate unless all the windows are open, even in sub-zero weathert, he loves rural living and looks forward to a career in agriculture. Pete will certainly use the most modern methods in his chosen profession since he has a great interest in the scien- tific world. An Assistant Professor in the Physics Depart- ment, he frequently comes to the rescue when Mr. Ballard is stumped by an apparently insoluble problem. Mr. Hath- away would be lost without Professor DudIey's two definitive works in the field of mathematics, Euclid was Wrong and Why Johnny Can't Add, Subtract, Multiply, or Divide. Pete is an outstanding performer on the athletic field as well. Football captain and a polished player at every posi- tion, he has been largely responsible for the many openings our backfield finds in the opposing line. He is also a valuable asset to the baseball team, where he plays in the outfield. During the off season Pete stays in study hall and opens windows. As Pete drives that motorized plow into the future we bid him a fond farewell.

S they think back to it, the Seniors reioice in remember- ing the day when Pete Gessner entered the narrow portals of the tenth grade room. A spirit of mature cama- raderie and a Gessnerian sense of humor have been felt ever since, for Pete has gently worked his way through three years with us and has won a large number of close L? friends. Academically well above average, Gess has also V, E' k assumed a position of leadership athletically and socially. F l' E ' Football, basketball, and tennis, Sacred Heart and Nightin- V? gale, duties of Alumni Editor and Student Council Treasurer, .ff wh i 'N , I all have tried unsuccessfully to distract him. Beer parties, 1 I Greenwich Village, and the cinema have similarly tailed to 1 e,.X,, 1 WF P- 4' to make him a playboy, but everything has been instructive and entertaining. Pete's only enemies have been made in English class, where his Freudian interpretations of Dos- toyevsky and rash claims that Hamlet suFlered from an Oedipus complex have appeared unfathomable to all. The fall of 1957 will find either Harvard or Amherst enlivened by Gess's presence on the campus as an engineering or psychology major, and vacations in New York next year will see Pete and the Downtown Boys reconvening for an- other blast and a few nostalgic memories.
