JAMES ROWAN EWING, JR. PRINCETON If ntered Form I Whether he is marching with the band at halftime, presenting an early morning jazz concert in assembly, or just leading an informal seventh period combo, Jim can truthfully be called the outstanding musician of the senior class. He and Mr. Schultz developed a band of many tempos which added spirit at athletic events and which was much sought after for the short dances after Saturday night movies. jim spends many of his week-ends and vacations playing with local groups. His constant attendance at U.W.F. meetings and his column in The Crane typify jinfs varied interests. Always regarded as a top-notch student, .lim was on the Honor Roll for nearly all of his six-year stay at Cranbrook.

AMHERST Speaking xery convincingly to 1 xtrv untonxmced throng, the lecturer trium- phantly stated, I have thus proved that all triangles are isoscelesf' So spoke Fred Fechheimer, senior class mathematician. Fred has not confined his talents to math. A total of 23 Reid and Scholastic writing awards, the most in the school, are adequate proof of this. He has always ranked high scholastically, this year gaining mid-year induction into the Cum Laude Society as one of the top five in the senior class. Working hard for athletic improvement, he culminated his four year quest for tennis prowess by winning a letter this spring. Small college life is attractive to Fred, as he plans to attend Amherst this fall.

PHIL SOMERS FLEMING Entered Form I DENISON With Commencement exercises this spring, Phil finishes a lengthy schooling at Cranbrook institutions. Not only a six-year man at Cranbrook, he is one of nine seniors who can remember the good-old-daysv at Brookside. Much of Phil's time has been spent in the neighborhood of the small gym-the stage, in particular. A member of Ergasterion, he was awarded a silver pin this last year for both his acting and work with the stage crew. A capable craftsman, Phil enjoys working in the shop, his efforts resulted in a Scholastic Art Award as well as personal satisfaction from his handiwork.

CHARLES WILLIAM GRUBE II Entered Form IV MICHIGAN Despite the poor records of the football and basketball teams, the leadership and achievements of Captain Chuck Crube are highly commendable. A captain of both teams in his senior year, Chuck began his football career in the back- field, this year he was converted to a lineman. Chuck held enemy yardage around his end to a minimum. Letters in baseball also have been added to his collection. Taking the limelight in activities other than athletics, Chuck is a two-year member of the Student Cabinet, Senior Prefect of Marquis and a member of thc school social committee. A tribute to his talents is supported by the fact that his record shows that he has accomplished in three years what many canit do in six.

RICHARD HAN MICHIGAN Ifllterrzl Form V Bidding farewell to Cranbrook with the fifty-nine other heroes of the senior class is Dick Ilan. Though coming to school in his fifth form year, he was soon head- over-heels in Cranbrook activities. He joined the Pre-Med Club and Radio Club this past year and has served on the Stevens social committee. Sportswise, Dickis fondness for hockey led him to the icy realm of Kingswood Lake to join battle with his cohorts in the General Sports group. Intramural soccer and a season of track have prepared him for running around the U. of M. campus next fall. Stevens Social Committee 5g Pre-Med Club fig llatlio Club 6g Detroit News Writing Award 6. MICHIGAN If there is any doubt as to who will bt the first person to set foot on the moon, Len Harding is as likely a choice as possible. An avid interest in rockets and space travel has made him Cranbrook's foremost authority on these topics. Len has found time for other activities as well as maintaining a high scholastic average. The Glee Club, with pageant and operetta, and the Archery Club were included in his schedule. A position on the varsity soccer squad as well as on the champion intramural soccer and baseball teams have filled Lens senior year with athletics. A trailblazing trek through the wilderness of southern Michigan will find Len at Ann Arbor next year. C-lee Club 4g Operetta 43 Pageant 4: Archery Cluli 5. BERNARD LYNN HARRIS BHOYVN Entered Form V Though having spent but two years at Cranbrook, Bernie certainly made them an active two. Taking avid interest in all four phases of school life has won him many honors. He kept the Cranbrook goal well protected from his fullback spot on this year's soccer squadg and what he lacked in height was compensated for by his sharpshooting during the basketball season. Bernie lettered in both sports. Academically, he has maintained an Honors average, while Ending time for activities as the Glee Club, Pre-Med Club, and CD Club. And he has become a well-planted rung on the social ladder. Soccer 63 Basketball 65 Glee Club 5, 64 Pageant 5, Gg Pre-Med Club 65 C Club 6.
