SENIOR PREFEC'I'Sg Left to right: Bill james, Charlie Carter, head prefect Fitz Friday Gene Tolfree, Jan Simpson. PREFECTS l95l,s prefects represented a senior class which set out to do something. And that was illly- thing but what was expected. The Class of T51 supposedly lacked the hustle, initiative and leadership to become a good senior class. But they did, As a whole the prefects entered into the movement to contribute to Hour scboolf, but they didnit lead it. They were more or less content to swim along with the rest of the crowd. As the year reached its end they improved, learning to handle the student body with tact and strength. They found the right equation for keeping discipline yet at the same time taking on and alloting responsibility to an age group eager for something to dof' It is hard to define the prefects, job beyond the realm of the dorm- itory and The Example, but indefinable as it is, there is one. And the unfortunate part of the problem is that it takes nearly the whole year to comprehend just what it is. If only this edu- cation could be passed on to succeeding prefect bodies perhaps Cranbook boys might someday find they run the part of their schoolv that concerns them. But until the prefects as a body wake up to the fact that in them is invested the responsibilities assigned to the student group, the faculty will still have to run the show. Only when the faculty has confidence that the pre- fects can run things soundly, sanely and safely will they go behind the scenes where they themselves would like to be. It takes backbone, courage and ability to be a prefect like that- but it seemed at year's end that this yearis crew was just beginning to realize it.
