GERALD HIGLEY NEWSOM N omnipresent cheerful disposition and extraordinary mental ability best typify Jerry. ln his two years with us, this boy has amazed us all by his near perfect marks in Editor of this yearbook and President of the Science Club, as well as working on student government and the Journal, Extrascholastic responsibilities include the lengthy and un- paid tutoring of Washington Square classmates. .lerry's aca- demic talents saw testimony in his admission to the Cum Laude Society this year, and his close rivalry with unrelent- ing Raymond Chiao has flourished since 1955, culminating recently in a neck-to-neck contest for valedictorian's hon- ors. Jerry's interests are not limited to work alone, for he has found time to construct a ref1ecting telescope and be- come a fair expert on astronomy, frequently going to bed early to arise at 2 A.M. for a few hours of star gazing and observation from his Greenwich Village rooftop. An excel- lent four years are a certainty for Jerry at the University of Michigan, and the field of science gives wide openings to his intelligence and pleasant nature. 26 i X Q -. - 1 ,f ff' W-, MSOGR Q? lg 4,1510 U IP 1 , it 1 'ix f' Q31 i..x L 5 f X ' ltr!

HE tramp of motorcycle boots and a baritone Hey, Daddy O invariably signify the advent of Peter Mus- canto on the scene. An American with a f1uent command of French, Muski, as he is known to his comrades, has en- hanced many a school and social function since he entered the class of '57 four years ago. He has proved his loyalty to Collegiate by three years' quarterbacking on the foot- ball team, by spirited playing on the basketball team, and by his quick running on the diamond. Though considered a connoisseur of the Brearley Juniors in particular, Pete has a knowledge of many of the ieunes filles de New York. Muski is an old roue of the Paris bistros, but has a knowl- edge of Fifty-Second Street that has enabled him to lend a touch of Dixie to the Twelfth Grade and that has made many a day pass quicker by manifesting itself in snatches from some Handy or Basie motif. His free time is spent in read- ing, attending the cinema, hunting light game at his Con- necticut residence, and looking forward to a summer of sailing along the Riviera. Yale and foreign affairs are Pete's goals for the immediate and distant futures, and for the present: Salut, Pierre. v ,, PETER VERRIERE MUSCANTO 25

ERNARD has added to the Senior Class a continental touch which he brought to us some tive years ago. Fluently bilingual, he has made many French Club speeches and has proved to be the terror of the French lV course. As Business Manager of the Dutchman, his was the un- fruitful iob of rousing the Senior School out of its lethargy to bring in ads. Bernard has many interests, among them art 1paintings and porcelain1 and voluminous reading 1Saint- Exupery and Henry Miller1, both of which make him one of the best-informed Seniors. At school his characteristic is getting good grades with an absolute minimum of work. Friday and Saturday nights might find him cavorting with a cosmopolitan group of East Side Collegians, and spring sees him at 238th Street occupying his tennis berth. Sum- mers-ah, back to the old country for a bit of fun and relaxation. Business is Bernard's choice for the post-college life. Currently finishing the last volume of Proust, he thinks of a happy day in the coming years when he will be able to open his bulging porte-monnaie and start on a never-end- ing series of transatlantic voyages-visiting friends in Paris, coming back to visit Collegiate, then oft again to Paris.
