Class History A new era unfolded itself before us. Through tearful eyes we caught a vanishing glimpse of our departing parentsg we were on our own. Wfe had taken our first faltering steps over the threshold of the future. Cranwell was to be our home of the next four years. With the Hrst passing days the feeling of strange insecurity left us. We met those with whom we were to work and play, our professors and our companions to be. Everyone was more than friendly, and soon our new task had become rou- tine. The annual retreat served to strengthen us both spiritually and physically against the pitfalls and hardships of the coming year, and welded us more firmly into a common brotherhood. The first class days were hectic. Orientation proved XGVHRH 0 vfii Page T14 enty Hut -93 . f .4 6 . W l t B' W! .411 Q 'F 2' ' ' O Z , iW l !-'i so Eli e' 'flozxom difficult, but we survived and settled down to fathom the Latin declensions and the ancient civilizations. The Autumn blessed us with Wonderful weather. We spent our afternoons exploring the nooks and cranies of the campus. Soon we felt ourselves old hands at the occurrences of the average Cranwell day. Our life was highlighted by the vivacious antics of Room 45. Mr. Grey, their prefect, later learned that such fracases were not uncommon. The third floor contributed its share to the general stock of amusements. On Sunday mornings we enjoyed free-for-alls between the Moslems and the Crusadersn. The turmoil usually ended in a lively pillow-fight until Fr. Moriarty came to the aid of his outnumbered Crusaders. Then a truce was called - until the following week-end. Mr. Shea supplied the impetus for the great Intramural Football rivalry. Each day teams clashed with all the vigor of collegiate gridders. The undefeated Rams captained by Jorge Cordova with John Comerford, Dick Cashman, Bry- ant Langmuir, Charlie Murphy and Jack Quinn, emerged victorious. Varsity Football was not without a Freshman representative. Peter Gillespie sparked the team with his admirable spirit. We might add in passing that our Freshman All-starsv defeated the invincible Sophomores two out of three games. When the Autumn had passed, we shifted into high gear. After Thanks- giving we felt that Cranwell just could not do without us. We had a part in everything, studies, sports, extracurricular activities and even Jug . We en- joyed nearly perfect participation in Intramural Basketball, even while lending some of our budding talent to the Varsity and Jayvees. Jorge Cordova and Jose Mendez, a south of the border combination, excelled on the hardwood court. Several more hardy souls braved the Berkshire cold to skim along the snowy slopes. Though our Christies were mediocre, we evidenced much promise at the Alpine sport. Every pleasure must end sometime. During January we added the terms Cramming and Blue Book to our growing vocabulary. The crisis of the Mid- year Examinations passed successfully and we began the second semester. The melting snows brought forth the Diamond enthusiasts. Much to Fr. Cunniff's perturbation, muddy foot prints marred the floors of St. Joseph's Hall. The racquet and golf fans treked to the clay courts and the fairways. In early May Parents, W'eek-End was in the limelight. Our mothers and fathers happily noted our maturity. We were well on the road to manhood. We were outstanding scholastically as well as athletically. Bill Coakley, Jorge Cordova and Bryant Langmuir were exempt from all exams with ninety averages. They left us a week early. The rest prepared for the final drive. It was with happiness and sorrow that we successfully completed this crucial year in our progress. Summer faded, and the first cool breezes of Autumn whispered welcome. Eagerly, we thrust shining keys into the locks of our new residence. Surveying Berchmans, now as upperclassmen, we breathed its rarified air in sophomoric splendor. There to greet us as only a corridor prefect can, stood our guardians- to-be, Fr. King, S. J., and Mr. Kennedy, hopefully reviewing the Old Boys and the newcomers. Among the latter appeared three denizens of the Empire State -Ed Considine, Elmira's pride and joy, and our impending President, Bill ui? XRHQ Page Tu enty-six , Q QL .1 A? Healy, the Babylon fur trader, and Bill Hickey, Larchmont's Old Reliable. Lee Bradley left Baltimore for the blustery Berkshires, and Long Jim Ruppe brought us shy folk songs from Lake Linden. While Vic Cieszynski traveled from New Britain to join the fold, Hartford's favorite son, Bob Shea, also made his appearance. The promising year began auspiciously with the usual three-day retreat. After we started on the daily classroom struggle, football took up most of our free time. Sophomores swarmed over both varsity and intramural gridirons. Pete Gillespie became a major hero when, despite size and sickness, he held down the Hrst string fullback berth. Perhaps the most spectacular play of the year was his ninety-seven yard run after having stolen the ball practically on the oppo- nent's goal line. Bob Mullane and Larry Eagan also enjoyed considerable success on the field, as did Man-Mountain Vogt and Charlie Murphy. The season came to a Htting climax when the frosh were crushed in two mighty battles, 27-6 and 25-O. Of course, the exciting Yankee-Dodger World Series provided the setting of another Stevenson-against-all Dodger-fans duel. We still remember how Marc raged when a year's supply of Yankee clippings mysteriously disappeared. For- tunately, they turned up a few days later. Winter arrived rather late and brought with it sleet, snow, shoveling, skating, basketball-and mid-years. There were a couple of crash landings, but no one was seriously hurt. We were slowly learning that things do have a serious side. Seriously, though, most of us enjoyed our studies. Geometry was the popular favorite, while History hnished a close second. It was about this time that Ray Murphy, the Woonsocket Irishman, made his debut. He proved a welcome addition to our roster. rf: c gnu ,f A 4 4' ST.

A f - 'Q SQ 5 QE, Y , - 4' H' g 'A 'iq gu gi rivl df 9 Once outside the classroom, we could wander toward the gym and watch the ubiquitous Gillespie flash his winning form, or saunter over to the rink where Bill Hickey, Bill Healy and Dan Burns polished their puck work. The snow also brought skis and toboggans out of hiding, and hidden talents were shamelessly displayed on the slopes. While all this was going on outdoors, Berchmans' second floor was sustain- ing a brutal battering. Pillow Hghts, midnight roof climbing, and complicated practical jokes helped to while the time away. Many a truant, intent on mischief, was caught rounding the corner at top speed by Fr. King and Mr. Kennedy. Suits were hurled into showers, sometimes with their owners insideg firecrackers exploded once in a while, and even invisible burglars visited us. Then car racing became the vogue, with small toy ones replacing the larger models we all dreamed of. What with cars whizzing around the halls at all hours, no one's legs were safe. But the highlight of winter enthusiasm was the trial that rocked the very foundations of our class-The State vs. Arnold Killen! Arnie was charged with the despicable crime of bulb-snatching. Of course, we had to make sure he'd be acquitted, and the jury was accordingly advised. Needless to say, he was declared innocent. After so much excitement, all of us welcomed a most enjoyable Easter vaca- tion. Refreshed and replenished, we marched back and slowly slipped into the daily routine. But somehow, the routine seemed different, Spring had changed lf. Grass and golf, buds and baseball! While Bill Hickey and Peter The Man Gillespie made life miserable for opposing pitchers, the Murphy boys, Ray and Charlie, proudly paraded the links. Parents' Week-End flashed by in a blur of prize debates and plays. Gerry Lapean performed like a Webster incarnate. . Final exams loomed, an obstacle course that we eventually hurdledg and there we were at the halfway mark - almost juniors. The Summer and its pleasures had faded, as we retraced our steps up the winding trail to knowledge. The era of wise-foolishness had ended, we were Juniors. Caesar and his Roman legions were vanquished, Cicero,s silver oratory now confronted us. There were four new reinforcements in our ranks. They hailed from the four corners of the earth. jack Growney represented Roches- ter, Tom Keogh journeyed from the fabulous Westchester County, and Mike Craig defended the Southern Cause. Because of heavy seas, Gil Vernet arrived late from Switzerland. After the annual retreat, once again we filled our pens and brushed the dust from our books. Classes had by now become routine, but a surprise was in store for us. We were to meet one of the most startling and unforgettable personali- ties at Cranwell. Everyone actually enjoyed Latin and English, Fr. Drohan was an excellent professor and a still better friend. A new Fall sport was inaugurated. Football now shared its limelight with soccer. Our class had its enthusiastic fans. Gene Dwyer, Gil Vernet and Bryant Langmuir were lettermen from the beginning. Football attracted many of us. jim Vogt, Charlie Murphy, Larry Eagan, Bill Hickey and Peter Gillespie were QQYPIIR Hg' Page Twenty-eight YZTJ - ,i ,!1 42F'5, Sil l aff-?lrZiZ.is1W outstanding gridsters. We also held our own in the jayvee and Intramural leagues. After Thanksgiving vacation we were forced to listen patiently to the esca- pades of our class Romeos. lt was a trying ordeal. Christmas came and went, and the semester drew to a close. Regardless of previous experience, we still burned the midnight oil in preparation for exams. Some people never learn! Nevertheless we are still here to talk about it. Our basketball season was a grand success and a little letter to Reverend Father Rector invited us to Boston Garden. lid Considine, Lee Bradley and Bob Shea represented us on the Varsity. We narrowly missed the championship by a mere ten points. A mild winter graciously afforded an early start at spring sports. Golf clubs were prematurely taken out of storage and racquets were regutted. Of the many who flocked to the diamond, Peter Gillespie and Bill Hickey were spectacular. Under the watchful eye of Fr. Weeks, jack Quinn, Charlie Murphy and Bob Killen waged war against the downstairs. Aloysius was a mess. Fr. Burke su- pervised rehabilitation. Once again Parents' Week-Eiid arrived. Gerry Lapean won the Best Speak- er Award for the second time in the annual prize debate. The final days passed quickly and after successful examinations we began our summer vacation, wiser, more mature and happier. And now the climactic year begins. Wheli we returned to the hills, the trees had already begun to shed. But, strangely, they were l10t red and yellow BERCHMANS' HALL GPHRZYQ vii A, Page Twenty nine AV' g 94, , if Lg S ea ,I I li x 1L l'!1f ' eg i , 3 I 0 'IQQQWQ' tl at lm., BOBOLA AND ALOYSIUS HALLS leaves to us, but crimson and golden laurels-Nature's quiet tribute to our last year at Cranwell. The boys were serious-college towers raised over the im- mediate horizon - all the silly, childish pranks were considered as such, and consequently scorned. The triduum was carefully observed, enjoyed, and con- cluded. Then we went to the Holy Cross-Georgetown game - our former class- mates appeared as college men-questions and eager queries were rife. The information, in general, was interesting, worrying, stimulating but not alto- gether satisfying-so we returned, and set to work. We set a racing pace at the start-even in sports. Most of the class turned out for the new coach-painful, but decidedly favorable reports surged through the grapevine. Our name was legion-and sovereign, on the gridiron-Jorge Cordova, Bill Hickey, Bill Culhane, Lee Bradley, Charlie Murphy, Andy Shea, Mark Stevenson-these were a few-in addition of course, to the steady four-year men -burly Jim Vogt, bulky Larry Eagan, and bombshell Peter Gillespie. Soccer rated highly - we had joe Powers, Bryant Langmuir, Gene Dwyer, Mike Craig, Tom Meldon, Larry Sissong some vets, some tyros - all Seniors. In the field of studies, we had a great deal accomplished-a proud and admirable record. The room study list was never so large under Seniors',. When our marks were read - and we were first now - we stood straight and listened carefully. The semester was a cinder track, and we realized, after a while, that, like a runner, we might burn ourselves out in the initial heat- so gradually we eased up-- in velocity, but not intensity. College applications and essays XRPKVTHI Page llllfly X dh' 5104 Q ig 5: t ' J -w ws E A . 5 , g +3 i0'tI9863'Q littered the rooms and crowded the mails - this was the term that counted. The Thanksgiving vacation was a mere interlude. When the Dramatic Club presented their two plays, Qwhose casts were principally composed of men from our ranks: Larry Eagan, Bob Shea, Bill Coakley, Bob Kiffney, and Mike Craigb, the Glee Club sang the Christmas Carols. It was not a small shock to learn that the year was nearly half over - that we had entered the shadow of the midyears. Meantime, the new gym had proved to be a thing of beauty, and varsity and intramural teams speedily set to work. The varsity quintet, at times exhibi- ting remarkable prowess, hung up a respectable 6-4 record. Two of the losses were decided by a single point, and another by three. The usually bitter inter-cottage rivalry became even more so. The Xavier- Bobola series stretched to the seven-game limitg underdog Xavier clinched the title by annexing the final tilt, 52-49. As Seniors, we felt we had reached the top of the world. But it's an awfully busy world, and there was always something to do. Some classwork to catch up ong maybe a letter to the folks or to what's-her-name. Our few moments were free and precious, and spent mostly in gab sessions fwhere we discussed every- thing under the sunj, in a continual waiting for Spring, and in just plain remin- iscing. College boards taxed our intellects and imaginations but somehow we lived through them. Their bark was worse than their bite. Our four years of Jesuit education paid rich dividends. Spring took its own sweet time, more snow greeted the equinox. Before we could realize it, tufts of green crowned the disappearing drifts, raincoats came out of hiding, and even a few robins appeared. But our surest sign of Spring was Easter vacation. We saw a lot of each other during itg some traveled hundreds of miles in order to attend parties where the rest of us had gathered. The two weeks came to an end, and we traveled back to Cranwell for the last time. We will return here some day, but not as students. The new Dining Room, completed at last, held its doors open in welcome. To many of us, it seemed the personification of our prep school life -it had taken longer than expected, lesser improvements were still to be made, but now it stood there in majesty, remarkably beautiful - the finished product. And so we were - almost. We still had to wait and perspire for those ac- ceptance slips to college-they meant a lot. There were still classes, home- work, baseball games, golf and tennis matches, etc.g spring fever never had a chance. But there was an atmosphere of finality about the whole business that we had never felt before. Parents' Week-End was more or less a preview of graduation - a hero and his proud parents -only, this time, we were the heroes, and our mothers and fathers regarded us with approbation. We've reached the end of a trail-we've needed a lot of help and en- couragement, and it has taken four years to do it - we know it has been worth it. We've worked, played, fought, prayed, and grown up together. And if we had to do it all over again, we'd do it the same way - with the same fellows - at the same school. XHPHRQ 45?

I just returned from Cranwell were we celebrated the twenty-fifth reunion of the class of 1950. What a time! What a reunion of old classmates and dear friends! What a time! ! XI arrived early as I always did when going to School. You get your pick of the rooms and beds that way. I just got sitting on the porch of old Cranwell Hall enjoying the beautiful Berkshire countryside, when another car drove in -a long, low Mars convertible. The loud sport coat was Larry Eagan, the business suit Bob Shea. Good old rotund, happy, snappy Larry is now a hotel tycoon, owner of the chain of Atlantic Seaboard hotels. Bob is a prosperous law- yer specializing in taxes and golf. Keeps Eagan out of trouble with Uncle Sam. We spied Andy Shea and jack Growney wandering along the lawn. Even the trees couldn't hide jack. Andy is a Grace Line executive and an authority on revolutions and bananas and jet jumping. Jack, now a comfortable medicine man, met for dinner in New York with Drew and Tom Keogh. Tom is in law. Can plead a good case except in his own cause. Couldn't talk his wife out of trip to her mother's home this weekend. Sends his regards. Not many of the old boys had arrived by lunch time. We found Carl Schweinler and Dick Cashman at the dining hall door, however. Carl is the new head of Ballantine's. Business is foaming, he said. Dick is selling sprink- lers. Has the contract for Carl's new plant. Will tie in the system with the plant instead of water. It's Carl's idea. Jose Mendez and Jorge Cordova joined us late at lunch. Take two, boys! we cried without pain. They flew up from Puerto Rico. joe is a prosperous ex- porter. Worth his weight in gold. Must be a millionaire! Jorge is quiet and dig- nified. Is finding it difficult to drop the role of judge. Wait till this reunion gets rolling! We'll End the old Jorge. They knew that Bob Kiffney couldn't get away. He is teaching Math at Manhattanville and loves it. His wife is losing her loyalty to the place. Jerry Stannard and Bill Dextraze made the short trip from Lenox. They are partners in a trucking business. Bill is the business partner and steadying influence. Jerry drums up business. It keeps him on the move. Bill picked up a telegram on his way down. It's from Vic Cieszynski. Sorry, he can't make it. He's a psychiatrist. Imagine! Wrote a book which was recently published - How To Preserve Your Individuality In A Social Civili- zation . Ye Gads! ! We wandered back to Xavier just in time to meet a foursome coming out the door, Tom Meldon, Gil Vernet, Ray Murphy and Charlie Murphy. What sartorial sport splendor! You must look prosperous at reunions, you know. Tom has moved away from Erie. Has gone West, old man. Is managing his father-in- law's real estate in Arizona. Wonder if he married an Indian? Gil is in shipping. Has offices in Paris and New York. Hasn't lost the accent nor the Parisian politeness. Charlie hasn't changed too much, except bigger, if you can imagine that. He's married, of course. Has that docile look. Has his own insurance company. You can find him any day on the golf course. Ray operates a chain of X QKPKRHQ- Page Seventy-six 7-5 .V lfini load. Se! fri faI'kJ55!Qf'2? '0'i 1o!io'Qei movie theatres, fashionable ones, of course, with all the latest television devices. He looks like the apostle of the serene and peaceful life. Talks constantly of his home, vacations, golf, Cape God, his wife and Hve boys. Does Cranwell love him! just before dinner time Bob Mullane made his grand entrance. Grand is the word. He looked us all over from shoes to suit labels and said- Well!', He spent years in South America bossing a mining corporation. Now he's a politico bossing the state. The rest of the evening was spent visiting from room to room. Pete Gillespie was handing out the advance dope on the baseball season to a small group. He is the ace television sportscaster for N. B. C. Keeps in perfect physical condition from daily gym work. Bill Hickey was one of the eager listeners. Bill, too, keeps up his interest in sports, though he's a busy executive. Has a big house in Pelham with extra rooms and everybody welcome. Larry Sisson was also paying strict attention to Pete. He owns a television station in Fall River and is always eager for new ideas. The loud talk in an adjoining room I discovered came from Gene Dwyer and Marc Stevenson. Gene was stretched out on the bed, exhausted from a busy week. Marc was explaining to Gene the need of relaxation - as if Gene had to be told. Gene spends his working hours on the East River guiding his slow barges and Hguring fast horses. Marc is writing for the Tribune and doing occasional heavy articles for magazines. He is well-known around New York as badmin- ton champ of the N. Y. A. C. Bill Coakley dropped in on the crowd around 8 o'clock. He's really big time as a writer. Had a best seller recently. I didn't dare mention it. He might ask if I read it. I don't even understand the title. He brought excuses from Gerry Lapean. Gerry is on a speaking tour. Mostly Catholic stuff like philosophy and SACRED HEART ALTAR g6VER3Y N,5'b,,,.

Saturday morning brought the rest of the old gang. jim Ruppe arrived during the night. Came in on a sleeper, found a room until we found him. We had Schweinler wake him and accuse him of unfair tactics in the brewery business. Jim only smiled. This meant that Bosch would continue to outbattle Ballantine in the midwest. When allowed to sit up, he had news of Bryant Lang- muir. They were Whiffenpoofs together at Yale. The Squire is the chief engineer at Grumman Aircraft. just invented a new headlight for planes that he predicts will fly faster than light. A cab dropped Bill Fritz and John Comerford at Xavier. Bill looked like a rainbow in the latest of mens' colored clothes. He married a movie starlet and she picks his clothes. He started as her agent. Is real Hollywood. Even has a swimming pool. john is a Boston utilities magnate. Is frequently chairman of community funds and charity drives. Doesn't neglect the Red Sox for business, though. On the tennis court were Bill Healy and Tony Bellucci. just the sight of them in shorts made me perspire. Oh, for the courage to diet! Bill Culhane and Bob Killen were dryly kibitzing the game. Healy is selling new housing. The moderate priced kind with the fast sale and the fat profit. Tony is a lawyer, the quiet, rural kind with all the clients. By quiet I mean not in the headlines. Bill Culhane is a farmer. Excuse me-a gentleman farmer- a Maryland farmer. He worked hard at it for years but now things just grow while he sips juleps. Bob is in the haberdashery business. Has the biggest store in Wallingford. He never cared to expand. Says life,s too short and why leave Wallingford. A car drove in after dinner. We thought it was radio controlled. Deeply hidden in it we found Rolf Jettinghoff. He designed the sleek monster himself. That's his business and what an imagination! Ed Considine was fascinated. Ed is a prosaic dentist. Has a wonderful practice but would give his uppers just for a ride in .Iett's automobile. I was summoned away from the car's admirers by a long distance fcollectj call. It was jim Vogt phoning from Arizona. He figured it as a good place to live. Low taxes, land cheap, heat by the sun, no neighbors. Has not married. He raises rabbits. You catch them wild and they are no care. Also raised a beard. No soap. I was pleased to hear from Jim but happy to hang up. I could hardly hear him. The connection was good but behind me Lee Bradley was having a quiet conversation with Mike Craig. Have they improved that southern accent! Lee is a banker during the spring, summer and winter. The fall is given over trail- ing the Fighting Irish from coast to coast. Mike is in textiles, cotton, of course. He has his own plantations. Raises a little tobacco on the side for chewing. I said hello to Mike but it would have required a hearing aid on a sound detector to catch my voice over Lee's explanation of why Army beat Notre Dame. I walked back to my room with the quiet and sedate Frank della Chiesa. He's a prosperous printer in New York. Rested and chatted with him for a while. There would be little rest that night.

As the lirst semester took shape, the course of our studies and the achievement of athletic honors burnished the shining metal of our desire to pursue the School's motto - Ad integram vitamn. The fresh, crisp air of Autumn awoke the spirits of the gridiron enthusiasts. From our class came the smashing drives of the Sullivan brothers and Bill O'I-Ierrong the stalwart defense of De Blois and Turain to add to Cranwellls team. Before the leaves had blanketed the campus we found ourselves progressing in leaps and bounds towards our spiritual and intellectual goal. Wiiiter spread its icy coat across the campus and it was not long before the avlilby A ioii ixokaer IU'-f?l'.,Q'fIl 6 43 elQQ3Qf9l at l a eg 'X K Q El + Qxi t lil - 1 sw if promising abilities of jeff 0'Connell and Frankie Bensel proved themselves on the basketball court. Although the winter was anything but encouraging for the hockey squad, nevertheless, under the flashing speed of Dave Reynolds and the Sullivan brothers, the defensive skill of Bob De Blois, and the unexcelled feat of Donnie Shea's solo, we managed to add our bit to an undefeated season. Mid-year week reared its ugly head and after a grueling seven days we found ourselves still mumbling Latin sonnets in our sleep. Then came the second semester, and once again we rolled up our sleeves and tackled the books. Then, Spring-Spring and the much awaited baseball season. Anxiously the baseball aspirants waited while the last traces of winter disappeared to un- cover the soft, sweet-smelling grass. Iwo the diamond! was the day-long shout and on the held we found the fresh talents of -Iohn O'Connell and Frank Bensel added to those of Bob and Frank Sullivan, George Garvey and Donnie Shea. Nor are we lacking in future Thespians for we have a NValt Coakley, a Will Smyth, and a Peter Carroll to look up to. So, we of the junior class look back upon a year filled with laughs and tears, of solemn moments and momentous decisionsg but most of all we look for- ward to a Senior year, that year of even greater responsibilities. XVe wish the Seniors every blessing as they go on to greater goals with the hope that we will soon be closely following them again. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS Holler!

The new faces and new surroundings awed us at first, but with the passing of the days we developed fast friendships and made ourselves to home. Our introduction to the studies, however, was a more difhcult undertaking. The intricacies of Latin, the strangeness of antiquity, the accuracy of Algebra, and the variety of literature challenged our minds. Alert to our responsibility we attacked with youthful vigor and have survived with few casualties. After sufficient time had passed for us to get acquainted, we chose our class representatives. To hold the distinquished office of class President we agreed on Frank Moscarillo. jim Halpin won the political battle for Vice-President.

At the inspired suggestion of Jim I-Ialpin, Coach Rooney agreed to form and coach a group of Freshmen who were too small for ll. V. Thus the j. Al. V.s came into being. Bill Shea was elected Captain of these light but eager foot- ballers. Upon returning from the Christmas holidays, a sign appeared announcing the privilege of private room study as a reward for scholastic excellence. Those happily honored were Vic Gutierrez, jim Halpin, Ed Jamison, Frank Mosearillo, Miles O'Brien and Ned Soares. Bruce Iuppa joined the group after the second month. Basketball was the next big event. We enjoyed many spirited intramural and interclass games. Two of our stars were invited to join the KI. V. squad, Bill Shea and Norm Dupre. We wish to express our thanks to the Class of 1950 for the example and inspiration they have given us. We sincerely hope that every one of them will succeed in the future that faces them after graduation. FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Nliehael Maxwell.

Eighth Grade A Summer of varied activity drew to a close and Autumn arrived heralded by the ringing, ol' school bells all over the land. On one of these September days, eight boys from several states met at Cranwell in the town of Lenox, Mass- achusetts. We were all strange in our new surroundings. Our spirits were not high, and yet the initial days of school saw us take mighty steps Forward through the Retreat exercises, where we came to know the good Lord better and learned to serve Him well at Cranwell. Do you remtmber that Saturday and the rapid, escorted trip through Spring- lield on our way to Worcester with our Cranwell brethren, and the opportunity we had of watching the Cross team in action and inspecting the campus at Packachoag? How time flew that first week! Then, before the friendly September SLIH had ceased to pour its warm rays over the Campus, we marched into the won- GPKRHQT 1' Nimfl i 'four 4 9 iijquj G- E iirxtxg Y- i 00 of 'Vi 'f Qn G W Q I 'J ,, .S t a i g '89 ii 1 eg Odqlgaq e' derland of knowledge with Mr. De Filippo to guide us through the intricacies of arithmetic, Mr. O'Neill, SJ., to direct us to the fountains of knowledge in English and in the historical lore of our country, in the mysteries of science and the ways of citizenship and civics, while Fr. Tobin, S. J., was bringing us closer to God, wondrous in His ways and His love. With mornings devoted to the pursuit of knowledge, the afternoons invited or called us to the gridiron, the tennis court or the green turf of the golf course. The laced boot, the shoulder pads, the helmet, and Coach Rooney,s tutelage claimed some: Jim Yaw, our tall but lithe, sturdy lad from Pontiac, Michigan, Bob Connors, our well-pro- portioned representative from the shadows of Boston College's famous towers in Newton, Dave Perry, a rugged young man from the heart of New York City, Tom Quigley, proud boast of Stamford, Connecticut, and Dick Bobay, the healthy youth from Pawtucket. Golf and tennis won the hearts of Tony Kettaneh and Torrington's smiling Tommy Moscarillo. Meanwhile, not a single bit of nature's fascination, nor a single stroke of the mason's trowel at Cranwell's new construction escaped the vivacious Peppy Bobay in his quest of knowledge. Autumn shed its leaves, and as the shades of evening were drawn we quaffed draughts of sweet cider, and munched sugar doughnuts of Connecticut's skilled masters. And don't forget the intellectual pleasures of chess, its queens and rooks, which captivated the attention of Kettaneh and Moscarillo. Memories surged - memories of the Christmas party, its mountains of food, its songs and hymns, recollections of the long Yule vacation, and the first major hurdle of our career - the midyears. As time marched on, we welcomed the snow, the skiing, the fleeting days of skating and hockey. There were moments of depression, when we labored with the dictionary, the snow shovel, or the waxing chores of jug, as well as hours of delight when movies relaxed our weary heads and tired hands. Hobbies? Yes. Peppy and his photography. Tom Moscarillo and his banjo. Perry and his feats of strength with the weights. Parties? Yes. Tommy Quigley with his huge birthday cake and soda. Come to the feast of St. Patrick and there's a little bit of green even in the snowy Berkshires. This time it's blonde and smiling Paul Lathrop, our newest member from near-by Holyoke, whose pastry and soda pop drove all our cares away. Bow ties and the first blades of green lawn brought us hopes of Spring. The thud of the baseball and the leather mit trumpeted its approach, while the flow of gifts-silver and bills-piled high the Bishops' Relief Fund. Easter sun beckons vacation and then, joy of joys, our new banquet hall and a banquet fit for a king! But time is fleeting - May devotions, Parents' Week-End, Sodality re- ception, and the last hurdle, the final examinations, crowd one another in rapid succession. Farewell to the carefree, happy days of our Junior school and on to the work of Freshman. Farewell, too, and Godspeed to the Class of 1950. 0 Qjilis '- x ,, v 'T' Qi' iafifo 'W Page Ninety fue . airs, x X 'T , I- Eg Q ACTIVITIES fx I PAPAL IIAIIIII IIAIIIIN Y., 1 V , K fy J . N.

The program prepared by Father Tobin was diverse and interesting and attracted a large and steady at- tendanee. Prefeet Williani Hickey and Vice-Prefect Robert De Blois contributed much by their leadership to increase the Sodalityls success. Each Friday a prepared program was presented. The contributions of the assigned members were interesting and many timely topics were explained. To introduce variety and encourage interest several guest speakers were invited. Father Talbot, S. J., explained the working men's retreats. Father John Walchars, S. J., drawing on his experiences of many years, lectured on the China Missions. Fathers Robert Campbell, S. J., Leo Dore, S.J., and Williain Murphy, S. J., exhorted us to greater devotion to Our Lady and aroused our interest fur- ther in the great work of the Missions. Mr. Francis Curley, S. J., gave an inspir- ing, descriptive lecture on the Holy Year and the Basilica of St. Peter's in Rome. We close the year with the sincere desire and hope that our faith has been increased and our lives made better through the intercession of our Heavenly Mother. .

ID, llwye-r, The Sanctuary ociety The Sanctuary Society has always been one of the most important and beloved activities at Cranwell. Members of this organization are trained to serve Mass and assist at other religious functions. Membership includes all years from lfighth Graders to Seniors. An attitude of piety and devotion is instilled in all the members by their realization of their special privilege and their close associa- tion with the altar. lir. john Wttlchars, S. ll., the moderator, has done excellent work instructing the acolytes in their duties. It has been his care to train candidates, appoint servers, and to see to it that all the rubrics are correctly observed. We all know that the members of this organization leave Cranwell better fitted for their future role as Catholic gentlemen. awm ,. . G,92,4 50.ph Page ,'N'lllf'lVY-llllll 6 W?

The Dramatic Society The members of the Dramatic Society, which is an old and established club at Cranwell, have shown great progress in their art during the past year. This increase in skill is due to the members' earnestness in rehearsal and the pro- ficient direction of Father Bowman. The year started with a small group of experienced dramatists which in- cluded Bob Shea, Larry llagan, Bob Mullane and Mike Craig. They, together with a large number of green, aspiring Thespians, have grown into the compe- tent company we enjoyed in the Christmas show and in the more pretentious offering on Parents' Week-l'1i1cl. just prior to the Christmas vacation the Dramatic Club presented two one- JCI plays before the assembled students. One, 'KThe Last Cigarette , depicting an ironic and tragic episode in a Russian prison, starred Bob Shea, Bill Coakley and Larry lfagan. In the other, A Modern Inn , Peter Carroll, Bob Kiffney, Mike Craig and Mike Maxwell enacted a religious tableau. The Dramatic Society will present for Parents' Week-Eitd the well-known Broadway show, lt Pays to Advertisen. 9562 60 ljllfll' Illlf' lIlllI1ll'1'1l lfrlu Hi C Al fl new 25 Q If Q rr gg, full., B5 W 2 slits 5' 'el will 0 9 39' T Rear rnu' T.

The Bellarminoz Debating ocicty Twenty members of the .lunior and Senior classes interested in upholding the line traditions of the Robert Bellarmine Debating Society, met on October 7, 1949, and with due deliberation wisely elected President Charles Murphy, Vice-President klohn Comerford, Secretary-Treasurer Gerald Lapean, and Ser- geant-at-Arms james Vogt to manage the afYairs of the Society under the gui' dance of our esteemed moderator, lfr. Talbot, ll. The pattern of interest and excitement established in this first meeting intensified as the year progressed, thereby gaining seven additional members for the Society, testimony of the sus- tained interest the Soeiety's accomplishments evoked. Practice in the mechanics of public speaking alternated with participation in debates proved both practical and highly interesting. Through demonstration ljalul 42 ish 100163 lfil-93Q.Q.

Instruction in com- position and arguments brought us to the finer points of debating technique together with the benefits obtained through membership in the Society. Not in seeking oratorical perfection but rather in becoming better equipped to meet the challenge of public speaking in the years ahead have we realized the value and true purpose of the Society. To prepare an intelligent talk, to analyze questions, to think on our feet, to face an audience, to present ourselves and our message in the most advantageous manner, in all these respects have we profited. Sessions devoted to debate followed by criticism from our moderator and fellow members, made each aware of his shortcomings, and the sincere con- structive criticism was most beneficial. The subjects of our formal debates ranged from Resolved: There should be no restriction in the student's use of comic books to Resolved: Socialized medicine should be adopted . The types of speeches varied as widely as the subjects debated- the quiet logic of Tom McGrory, the thundering denuncia- tions of Bob Killen, the balanced performances in both voice and logic of Andy Shea, Larry Sisson, Tony Bellucci, Bill Hickey, Jorge Cordova and Gerry La- pean. Each member of the Society, without exception, received and enjoyed the acclaim of his fellow members at least once during the year, either for a job well done or for a splendid effort at improvement. With confidence we approach the annual prize debate culminating a year of hard yet enjoyable work, whether we are on the platform as visible evidence of the exceptional instruction which We have enjoyed or whether we simply lend our moral support as a part of the audience, we know that the accomplish- ments of the Society were made possible by the joint efforts, loyalty and team- work of all its members. With humility and profound respect we dedicate our 1950 Annual Prize Debate to our moderator, Fr. Felix F. Talbot, S. J., whose devotion to our welfare and whose inspired guidance has made this year's mem- bership in the Robert Bellarmine Debating Society a shining light amongst the many pleasant memories of our years at Cranwell.

The .lohn Carroll Debating Society With Mr. tloseph McCormick, S. sl., as moderator, the john Carroll Deba- ting Society opened its 1949-1950 season with the election of officers. A new- comer, Henry Kirkendall, was elected to the presidency and Kelly McLaugh- lin, a member of last year's Society, was elected to the secretarial Seat. Messrs. .lamcs Halpin and -lohn Sullivan, two novices, received the offices of vice-presi- dent and treasurer, respectively. ln the first scheduled debate, Harry Touhey and Normand Dupre upheld the allirmativc, and Kelly McLaughlin and james Halpin constituted the nega- tive side. Resolved: The sale of comic books should be restricted , with Henry Kirkendall presiding as chairman. After a long and heated controversy in which each of the speakers had several good arguments and presented them to the ut- most of his ability, the debates were closed and the speakers were given three minutes to prepare their rebuttals. The rebuttals were extremely well-executed 693385 1 Um llIIIll,Iil'1l sift u p tr S , ' i' ..5 4 5, ei it g Q X Q N . -T adv- ' QQ Q WL' v aio 'I9a9' and the members of each team succeeded in refuting the arguments of their oppo- nents. After long deliberation the non-participants in the debate voted unanimously in favor of the affirmative. The following week the debating activities turned to vocabulary and pro- nunciation. As the session was closing, Mr. McCormick assigned Victor Gutier- rez and Charles McCullough to uphold the affirmative side, while Henry Kirken- dall and John Sullivan upheld the negative side. Resolved: Boys of high school age should go away to school . The outcome'of this debate was a decisive win for the negative side. After a layoff of about three weeks on account of mid-year examinations, a debate Resolved: The Public School System be subsidized by Federal Funds started off the second term of debating. Charles McCullough and Kelly Mc- Laughlin held the negative, while Henry Kirkendall and john Dessauer con- stituted the affirmative. As the result of an accident, Kelly McLaughlin was un- able to speak and was substituted by Harry Touhey. Even though Harry tried his best he was hindered by lack of time from preparing his debate and as a result the well-rehearsed affirmative carried off a unanimous victory. In the next debate, Resolved: The President should be elected by Direct Vote , Kelly McLaughlin and Carlos Mendez, a newcomer at the half-year, for the affirmative, opposed Henry Kirkendall and Harry Touhey. Because of ill- ness Henry Kirkendall was unable to appear and instead Joseph, Feitelberg sec- onded. , joseph put on an excellent showing for his first time and aided the negative to victory. After each debate an open forum was held in which each man had an oppor- tunity to express his views on the subject. Outstanding in these forums was Vic- tor Gutierrez, who showed his talent before the rostrum, while Kelly McLaugh- lin, Henry Kirkendall and John Sullivan showed excellent abilities. The goal of our efforts will be the prize debate to be held on Parents' Week- End. In this contest a Freshman team will be pitted against three more experi- enced Sophomores. The victory will be closely contested. if bale--asa.. aa 52 A115 ii 2,3-uifE!5JfQQ of iisiifw' Page One hundred seven Rear run' C. Harvey. N. Shea. W. Cuakley. P. Slll'l'lIli1Il. R.

The Glu Cluls lfaeh Wednesday night - the seene, the old gym, a piano, a group of trou- badours, and liather Moriarty sounds a chord. Yes, we worked hard, but invari- ably there were delightful interludes - the latest hit of the weelau, or even an ill-omened ambitious disehord to stop momentarily all proceedings. Our reper- toire was an adventure - the past and present ol' musie's best. We felt the beauty of medieval chant, the warmth of bright Carols that told little song stories of Christ Child love, and there were others - you remember. Our first performance appropriately enough, was a tribute to Christ the King. The Christmas performance won hearty approval. Many said that it was the best in school history. We were proud of ourselves. Christmas spirit reigned -even to Carols re-echoing - informal renditions, of course - so far into the night. gf' Um, lIlIIlIjl'l'I! vfglll as to ii, is lil if - ip S 2 3 3 at f 'I939' Rem' mu' ll.

The Chess Club The 1949-SO season of the Cranwell Chess Club opened on liriday evening October 7, 1949 and the enthusiasm evinced at this lirst meeting has carried throughout the year. To launch the year off to a good start and to continue it in this manner we elected three outstanding chess players as our officers. As President, we chose Gilbert Vernetg Vice-President, Dennis Dwyerg and Secre- tary, james Ruppe. To them and our beloved moderator, Father Halliwell, we extend our sincere thanks for a year most prohtably spent. One of the highlights of this yearls Chess Club was the game with Loomis. 'l'his game again proved the great value of the instructions given by our modera- tor as we won, in this closely contested match, by the score of three to two. ln reviewing this chess year just passing, we realize our great advancement in both knowledge and skill. Our enthusiasm for the game had increased with each meeting and we thus extend our heartiest Wishes to all future chess players that their years may be as profitable and en ioyable as ours were. ,,l'xx A, Page Une llllIIlll'f'Il Ill-III' LID bil 1939 U f I , AC R iii iii I :Il My ez Q My I l 'f ' or SKIING iii 6+ A f .-if' V Maxxum.

Confronted with the job of molding a team into shape for the first game, only a few weeks away, Mr. De Filippo began daily practice on September 19. He introduced several new plays which were used in his days at Holy Cross. During the weeks that followed, those who watched the team, day by day, were amazed at the capabilities and polish developed in these gridiron performers. Stressing the importance of good blocking and precision timing, the coach led his men through hours of ealisthenies, blackboard drill and, of course, actual scrimmage. The record of one win, two ties and two defeats, does not give a true picture of the season. ln the estimation of all spectators of the games, the fact that the win column was not longer may well be attributed to several bad breaks. These were the deciding factors in several of these crucial frays. 6953385 Q. WEL ,sf lllllltllfll Izrefife 6 4:63, gi 5 ', 5 .I-.Q iii? o'fzI93Q'o' Captain Peter Gillespie, quarterback, hampered by an injury acquired last year, played spectacularly all season. Joe Comalli, our new addition from Lee, Mass., proved to be one of the finest performers to appear in Cranwell's first decade of football. The year's greatest improvement was Jorge Cordova, a three-year varsity man. Jorge was Cranwell's high scorer of the year. Lee Bradley, our passing quarterback from Baltimore, Sonny Williams, offensive halfback from Vermont, and Bill O'Herron and Eddie Norton, both Berk- shire boys, rounded out a perfectly balanced backfield. Fairhaven,s jim Vogt, and Charlie Murphy, of Jamaica Plain, our two bruising tackles, stopped dead many an opposing ball player with their ferocious tackles. Larry Eagan, a Hve-year man from Windsor, Conn., and Jack Curley of North Troy, N. Y., ever dependable guards, were Cranwell's proverbial immovable objects on de- fense. The team was also blessed this year with three talented ends. Bill Hickey, of Larchmont, N. Y., Frank Ptak, of near-by Housatonic, and a Three Rivers man, Charles Pelczarski, sparkled both on offense and defense. Our two star pivot men, Bill Culhane, of St. Michaels, Md., and Bob De Blois, of Pawtucket, R. I., shared the important center duties. Marc Stevenson, Andrew' Shea and Tom Keogh were able substitutes. All in all we consider that it was a very successful season and our con- gratulations and sincere thanks go to Mr. De Filippo and the entire squad for doing such a good job for Cranwell this season. CRANWELL fw. KINGSWOOD In the opening game for both schools, Cranwell and Kingswood, of West Hartford, Conn., played a 6-6 deadlock. The evenly matched rivals battled through the opening quarter without scoring. Early in the second quarter the Red and Black of Kingswood broke into the scoring column when Haverty plunged over from the two-yard line. Their conversion struck the crossbar, however, and bounced back. John Lamborn re- turned Kingswood's kick-off to our forty-five yard line, and then Cranwell KQPHRH6 QZW0 Page One lzundrerl thtrteen 5. 435. 54 50? 4 Q T U X 4+ . lil ' iodtI93Q's9v 200163 W Tmfv made their hrst drive of the game. Passes from Gillespie to Hickey brought the ball to Kingswood's twenty-five yard line. A screen pass from Gillespie to Cor- dova set little Jorge in the open behind five blockers, and he carried the only defender to touch him right across the goal line. Gillespie's kick was low and the half ended with the score 6-6. Each team mustered its forces for one threat in the second half. Midway in the third period, Furlong, of Kingswood, returned a Cranwell punt to our fifteen-yard line, but on the following play Charlie Murphy recovered Kings- wood's fumble to end the threat. In the fourth quarter Murphy recovered another fumble on the opponent's ten-yard line, giving us a golden opportunity to win the game. With fourth down and goal to go, Gillespie pitched to Cordova who was hauled down two yards from the goal line. Seconds later the game ended. Bill O'Herron, Jorge Cordova and Pete Gillespie were stars on the offense, while Bill Culhane, Charlie Murphy, Jack Curley, Bill Hickey and Larry Eagan excelled on defense. CRAN WELL fvs. LQOMIS Humidity and generally oppressive weather predominated, as the Cran- well eleven traveled to Windsor Locks for their second skirmish. Unfortunately they received a setback as inauspicious as the climate by the rather disheart- ening score 24-O. Their confidence shattered early in the hrst per'od, there were nervous fingers and anxious hearts beneath the Blue and Gold. Battling keenly under Captain Peter Gillespie, against the co-ordinated Loomis machine, they begrudged every inch they lost, and struggled gallantly for each one gained. Loomis struck the white diagonals only four times, and two of these were by their elusive back, Pierson. Our own backs, Gillespie, Jorge Cordova and Joe Comalli proved their mettle, but on the short end of the tally. Crush- ing line performances by Jim Vogt, Charlie Murphy, Eagan and Curley halted numerous drives by the Red men. Midway through the third period, two passes from Gillespie to Sullivan and a series of vicious line plays brought the Cran- Page Une lzunffred fourteen QQ SB G QQ?

Wheii an aerial attack clicked between Lee Bradley and Bill O,Herron, we made our greatest gain of thirty yards. This, too, was futile, as it occurred seconds before the half-time whistle sounded. Tremendous dili- gence at ends by Frank Ptak and swift Bill Hickey counted in squelched pass plays and thwarted end runs. Qur star center, De Blois, and the hghting Sul- livan twins also played remarkable ball. The hammering boys from Lenox did their utmost, but didn't seem quite enough for the lads from the Locks. They were outstanding, however, in a losing cause. CRANWELI. fvs. HOTCHKISS On Saturday, October 22, the Cranwell student body traveled to Lakeville, Conn., to see the annual contest between Cranwell and Hotchkiss. A large crowd was on hand for the game but were soon to be driven to shelter by rain which came in the second half. The first period saw Willianis and Comalli run for hrst downs but we could get no closer to a score than the twenty-yard line. Sparking defense was exhibited by both teams in the opening quarter and neither team was able to threaten. Comalli and Gillespie combined for another first down but it was erased by a penalty. In the second quarter Comalli went back to punt but the kick was blocked and Hotchkiss took over. Their attempts for yardage were prevent- ed by a solid defensive Cranwell wall of Murphy, Vogt, Eagan, and Curley. Hotchkiss kicked and Bill O'Herron returned the kick thirty yards to start the Cranwell drive. Gillespie ran an end sweep for fifteen yards with good blocking. Pete then completed a pass to Ptak for the hrst down. Jorge Cor- dova made a line buck for another first down. And so the Cranwellians marched to the Hotchkiss one-yard stripe. We failed to score, however, and took over shortly before the end of the half. When the teams resumed play after the half it was raining. Due to the MWIRHG X59 VMUQ Page One lzumlrefl teen gall? 2 gi 'U . eiw 4-1 Q '. ii g .7 Ji siilvef 'tI9:19'51 rain there were several fumbles on both sides but neither team could get across the goal line. The game continued into the final and last period which saw considerable gains by Cordova, Comalli, and O,Herron, but the fray ended in a scoreless deadlock. This was probably the best showing the Cranwell team made all season, but they were unable to chalk up a victory. CRANWELL fvs. ST. SEBASTIAN As a climax to the three previous games Cranwell vanquished St. Sebas- tian 27-6. Our superiority was early exhibited when Joe Comalli, our great back, plucked down a hostile pass. Then the first quarter was a round of rapid, bitter skirmishes. The balance of victory swayed capriciously, but irresistible drives by Lee Bradley and Ed Norton and immovable blocking by Jim Vogt, Larry Eagan, Charlie Murphy and Bill Culhane weighed heavily in its shifting pans. In the second quarter, however, St. Sebastian, despite rock-hard playing by the Blue and Gold, dominated the Held, and finally, after snatching a Cran- well fumble, passed their way into the end zone. A new team trotted on to the Held after half time. The Cranwellians played inspired football. Lancing runs, stop-watch interference and electric aerial attacks rewarded them with two tallies and one extra point. Starring principally in the backs were the swift Jorge Cordova, Joe Comalli, the power- house, brilliant Peter Gillespie, our pigskin prodigy, and Bill O'I-lerron, the broken Held marvel. Quickly the game passed into its final period. Bill Hickey, the steady wonder worker at end, and the phenomenal Sullivan twins left the St. Sebastian men bewildered. Our hammering backs and crashing line offen- sive accounted for still another score and extra point as Captain Gillespie not only bored through center, but also successfully made the conversions. Finally, Ed Norton, the cantering phantom from Housatonic, speared an enemy pro- jectile, then took a friendly toss of forty-five yards from Pete Gillespie to scamper across for our final tally. Pelczarski and Hickey, ends, Culhane, Eagan, Turain, Couzens, Petzold and Jack Curley, linemen, and Bob De Blois, top BVIUUR Inge One lllllllffffli sixteen 'Q A E UQ, g Q9 p tg rr. sm - 'f Kg' we! . 5 E 16- 0 + ?

CRANWELL fvs. SUFFIELD Stymied by Cranwell's stalwart defense for the greater part of the game, Suffield Academy capitalized on two Cranwell aimless passes and scored fol- lowing interceptions and runs of hfty yards in the final period to pull a 12-O victory out of the fire on a snow-swept field Saturday, November 5. For the duration of the game, however, the Blue and Gold played on even terms with the favored Nutmeg eleven. In the first half both teams threatened as they penetrated to the opposition's twenty-yard line. In the third period Coach Gene De Filippo,s gridsters drove deep twice as they reached the twelve-yard stripe on one occasion and the twenty on an- other. Cranwell had better results on the ground than in the air, and the visitors' alertness in intercepting passes ultimately paid off. With the opening of the Hnal quarter things began to happen in rapid suc- cession. A bright ray broke through for Cranwell as Ed Norton intercepted a Suffield pass and went to the visitors, fifteen, but the brilliant play was nulli- fled by a pass interference ruling. Two plays later jack Curley made his inter- ception at midfield. Norton then swept around the flank to Suffield's forty. On a nifty handoff from Gillesepie, Joe Comalli picked up fifteen yards. Called upon again he cracked the line to put the ball on Suffield's twenty for a first down. Here the storm clouds really appeared for Cranwell as Captain Fred Robin- son of the invading eleven intercepted a pass and raced down to the home team,s twenty before he was brought down by Pete Gillespie. On third down Fran Platt swept around end to give Suffield its Hrst touchdown. The kick for the point was of no avail, and the Connecticut Academy had a 6-O advantage. Following the kickoff Cranwell was once again on the march as it moved to midheld from its own eighteen. However, here again another pass proved fatal. lg K Kkqf 5 J ,N '0'f'ir l15'0 F .9 431 Page One lzurzdred seventeen gf.

BERKSI-IIRE Friday, October twenty-third, the iayvees journeyed to Berkshire. Full of hope Cranwell took to the field. All hopes of victory were shattered as a deter- mined and experienced Berkshire swept through the Craneis line play after play. Brilliant teamwork was shown by Stevenson, the Shea brothers and Tom Mad- den, but Cranwell fell by the score of 37-O.

Basketball This year's season with a record of six wins and four losses did not prove the ability of the Blue and Gold team. There were several disappointments that placed the Rooney-men back. The three point loss to Collegiate Prep was a a hard game to drop, as also the two one point defeats by Salisbury and Loomis. These setbacks were smoothed over, however, by victories over Williston and Kingswood. Salisbury received an unexpected welcome when they journeyed to Lenox and were vanquished by a more experienced and well-balanced quin- tet than they had met previously on home grounds. The acquisition of Frank Ptak and Joe Comalli proved to be a mighty asset to the team this year, along with veteran Peter Gillespie. These three not only possessed a great amount of natural ability but with that was the Cranwell spirit. Bill Healy transferred from the hockey squad to win a starting berth. Despite his small stature Bill excelled on defense as well as adding several tallies to his credit on the offense. Tom Conneally and Jack Growney played their game under the boards with great Hght and hnesse. Jeff 0,Connell, Ray Rosseel, and Don Lucca, all underclassmen proved valuable substitutes.

So as another squad graduates and goes into retirement it wishes to ex- press to Coach Rooney its sincere thanks for his tireless efforts and effective coaching during the season. We wish Mr. Rooney and next year's team the best of luck for another successful season in the history of Basketball at Cranwell. CRANWELL vs. DARROW Elated by the jV's crushing victory, the Cranwell quintet trotted onto the floor very confident of success. But they had underestimated the fast, lanky Redmen. In the first period Darrow's Owen arched in four tallies. Big Joe Comalli set up our first basket to Pete Gillespie, playing under a handicap of which he scarcely seemed conscious. Joe then proceeded to assist the next three scores, one by Ptak, the others, Gillespie. Meanwhile Aull of Darrow dropped in two, Hagar sunk a foul shot, and Hudnut ripped the net for the last score of the period. In the second period it was all Cranwell. Comalli again took the lead with two baskets and a foul. Conneally's exaggerated stature payed off as the scoreboard recorded one net and a foul shot. Comalli looped in one basket, then, outside the key, vaulted off the floor at the last moment and sent a long clear one-hander into the cords. The buzzer then sounded to end the half. The third period was quite a skirmish with both teams on even par. Ptak whipped in two, Conneally put up two solos, and Gillespie followed suit, dropping in another. Cranwell scoring ended with a surprise duet, Ray Rosseel to Jeff O,Connell. However Darrow had not been idle all this time. Their big three were GILLESPIE 1,BpHRHf Page One hundred twenty-four 554. - Y fe- 39 . 'filo :zo ' mi' .l. N. l3'NSKl'l'l'B.Xl.L Rear mu' W. Shea. R. lfunnors. ll. Rossi-el.

I-Iudnut hooped two and then rung up his foul. Their top man, Owen plunked two straight scores. The last quarter had the stands in a continued uproar, as the balance of fortune began to sway, while the ten sweating players battled unceasingly un- til the hoarse buzzer blatted the end of the game. The hnal score was Cran- well 50, Darrow 44. Ptak and Conneally were high for Cranwell with fourteen each. Owen scored for the losers with eighteen and Aull a neat fourteen. CRANVVELL vs. BERKSHIRE On Saturday, December 1Oth, Cranwell journeyed to Sheffield, Mass. to meet the Berkshire quintet. As was expected, Berkshire employed a tight two-one-two zone and Coach Rooney, having primed his team in the zone attack, sent his starting five in to attack the zone. In the first quarter Cranwell showed good accuracy in their shots and played a fine defensive game. It was a close period and at the end Cranwell enjoyed a four point lead 23-19.

ET!l.2 6' 'f'l9:19'Q kets by joe Comalli and Pete Gillespie helped boost the Cranes' scoring. Throughout the second and third period the game was still very close and neither team was able to break away from the other. Jack Growney and Tom Conneally performed admirably under both boards and at the end of the third period Cranwell was still ahead by eight points, 36-28. In the Hnal canto the Blue and Gold finally found themselves and scored without mercy. Baskets by Curley and O'Connell started off the rally and Gil- lespie and Ptak soon took over with numerous field goals and free throws. Jack Growney and Conneally took complete control of the boards and the Rooney-men coasted to a 52-36 victory. CRANWELL vs. COLLEGIATE In their first start after the Christmas holidays, the Blue and Gold played host to the fast Collegiate Prep quintet. Displaying exceptional speed and bril- liant set shooting the New Haven club jumped off to a quick lead and was never headed. Height under the backboards gave Collegiate Prep a slight ad- vantage, but Cranwell kept within scoring distance. The shooting of Tom Conneally and Joe Comalli was a big help. The score remained very close until two quick baskets by Pat Ragaccino gave Collegiate a 22-15 half-time lead. Employing a new defense in the second half the Lenox hoopsters short- ened the Collegiate lead with the deadly sets of Pete Gillespie playing an im- portant part. At the Hnal whistle, however, Cranwell was on the short end of a 42-39 score. Pete Gillespie was high for the losers with thirteen points. SHEA YXXBVKRH P 65-541 age One hundred twenty seven .

During the first quarter Cranwell had a rough time of it. Kingswood, using a two platoon system in an effort to run Cranwell into the floor, shot ahead at the opening gun by sinking two quick baskets. Joe Comalli tossed in a long one- hander to halve the deficit, and seconds later O'Connell tapped in a rebound to tie up the ball game. Then a pair of baskets by Gillespie and Ptak put the Cranes in front to stay. The second quarter saw Kingswood fight back with all the energy they could muster. At one time it looked as if they were going to overtake the Rooneymen, but Mr. Gillespie was still around. Peter carried the team through a rough second canto with his deadly set shots and tricky lay-ups. At the close of a wild half, Cranwell was still in front 25-17. Enjoying an eight point half-time lead, Cranwell calmly walked onto the floor and threw in twelve points in a minute and a half. Chief scorers in this rally were Gillespie, Ptak and Conneally. In the fourth quarter, Jack Growney and Jack Curley neatly netted for the Rooneymen. The final gun cannoned a 55-40 victory. CRANWELL vs. WILLISTON On Saturday afternoon, January 21, the Williston Academy journeyed to Cranwell to engage the Jesuit school five. Paced by the consistent push shots of Joe Comalli, the Cranwell quintet gained its fourth victory in five starts. Using a pressure defense for the first time, the Blue and Gold jumped to an early -lead. Baskets by Ptak, Gillespie, Conneally, and Comalli put Cranwell in front to stay. Cranwell enjoyed a 36-18 half-time lead.

Tommy Knight, former Agawam High star, was tops for Williston with four- teen. Joe Comalli, of Lee, was high for Cranwell with seventeen. Francis CNonnej Ptak was runner-up with fifteen. Pete Gillespie also hit double Hg- ures with ten. CRANWELL vs. SALISBURY Elated by their victory over Williston, the Rooneymen journeyed to Sal- isbury, Connecticut for the first game of a home-and-home series. But over- confidence took its toll, as Cranwell went down to defeat 49-48. The game started off slowly, but picked up towards the end of the first quarter. Salisbury, enjoying control of both boards, used a lightning fast break to best advantage, and was aided by poor defensive play on the part of the Berkshire quintet. At the end of the first half, Cranwell was eight points behind. As the third quarter began, the Cranes played even more sluggishly than before, and as Salisbury drew farther and farther away the game appeared out of their reach. In fact, we were some thirteen points behind as the last period began. Then at last the Cranwell team showed its true colors. Gillespie scored from all corners of the court. Ptak and Comalli chipped in, and Growney gathered rebounds as never before. And with a minute left in the game, the thirteen point lead had diminished to a single point. Fighting furiously Cran- well got the ball a half minute left to play. As the clock ticked off five seconds Frank Ptak threw up a one-hander from the side, and the cheers of Qwiiiliilf' Page One hundred twentv nine , 4',ns' 5? pig 'mm ifixiiilai g C . ' 5 .-7 'Za' f-fy ea 0'Fl9i3Q'99?i the crowd turned to groans when they watched the smooth ripple of the net. But there was still life left in the apparently dead Salisbury machine. A desperation pass resulted in the game winning lay-up, the spirited Cranwell rally that should have won the game went for naught. Gillespie and Ptak were outstanding in the score column, however, with 18 and 10 respectively. Jack Growney covered the boards with exceptional fi- nesse during the final canto and Bill Healy added lustre to the game with his defensive play. CRANWELL fvs. SUFFIELD An eager student body Watched Cranwell's Conneally easily outjump the center from Suffield. The Rooneymen marched to an early lead on two foul shots sunk by Joe Comalli. Presently Comalli dropped another foul through the hoop just as a bit of insurance. The keen eye of Peter Gillespie accounted for two more set shots midway through the period and Healy dribbled through to make good a lay-up. Here the tide began to turn. Aided by well-timed plays, Suffield intercepted three Cranwell passes and raised the tally to gain a slight edge on the Blue and Gold as the klaxon sounded. Suffield's Poules took the top as the second period opened. But Cranwell wasn't through yet by any means. The ball game was nip and tuck throughout the next eight minutes. Again Comalli,s foul shots greatly aided' the Cranes. It was still anyone's game as the half ended, Suffield 24 - Cranwell 22. The second half saw Suffield's greater height greatly offset Cranwell. Coach Rooney's men offered heavy resistance but making headway Was difficult. Suf- field virtually dominated the backboards during most of the third period. As the Hnal period opened, Suffield held a twelve-point lead over the Cranes. A valiant twelfth-hour attempt cut down the margin but it was too late. Suffield won 56-36. CRANWELL fvs. LOOMIS After a savage second half, a spirited Loomis quintet managed to nose out Cranwell's fighting five by a one point margin, 54-53. A mediocre first half performance was probably responsible for the de- feat. Aided by Cranwell misplays and poor defensive work, the Connecticut team enjoyed a comfortable eight point half-time advantage. They did not enjoy it for long, however, as the Crane sharpshooters, led by Healy and Ptak, started hitting from all corners. From then on it was a real battle, with neither team able to grab more than a two or three point lead. At the end of the third period Loomis was ahead by one point, 43-42. An all out drive by both teams tied the score twice in a furious last min- ute display of precision shooting. Foul shots were made and missedg the crowd screamed even louder, but, at the finish line, Loomis was still ahead by that one vital point. Frank Ptak once again excelled with seventeen points to his credit and little Bill Healy, the surprise starter of the year with live field goals and two 4 Wiley, Page One hundred thirty og S t it Q 5 is 'ei-mumit Qf Ili! 5319 fouls in his favor. Healy came a long way since the beginning of the season and has truly earned himself a starting position. CRANWELL vs. DARROW The second Cranwell-Darrow game proved to be one of the hottest con- tests of the year. Superb defensive play and a savage game under the boards held the Rooneymen down to their lowest scoring effort of the season. After a rocky start, Cranwell settled down to play the type of ball they were capable of. Peter Gillespie and Tom Conneally carried the Cranes through a slow moving first period. At the end Darrow led by a slim one point margin, 11-10. The second quarter was just as rough and slow as the first. Innumera- ble shots rimmed the basket, as both teams appeared way off in their scoring attempts. At the end of the half, the New York quintet had increased their lead to two points and led 20-18. As the second half opened, the crowd impatiently awaited the scoring surge which was soon to come. Consecutive tallies by Ptak, Conneally, and Comalli, put Cranwell ahead to stay. At the horn the Berkshire boys led for the first time 26-22. Then Cranwell's little big men took over. In the face of a threatening Darrow rally, Frank Ptak took matters into his own hands. Three times in a row the Housatonic Ace set from the sideg and three times in a row the ball swished the nets. Then another mighty mite, Peter Gillespie, curled in a lay-up. Those eight points made all the difference in the world, as Cranwell beat Darrow for the second time this year 34-30. L13 GROWNEY i Page One hundred thirty one Q fffi gd GD y SN F r .N ' - if Qt? iff if o 19309 Once again Frank Ptak led all the scorers, as he tossed in five baskets and four fouls. Tom Conneally played his best game of the year, getting the ma- jority of the rebounds under the boards. CRANWELL fvs. SALISBURY In their return engagement with Salisbury on February 18, Cranwell took a 54-46 decision. The Blue and Gold employed a new sliding zone defense and they cashed in on every opportunity to give them their win. Pi Ptak helped the Lenox cause considerably with quick sets. Cranwell jumped off to a quick 6-O lead with baskets by Gillespie and Ptak. The Salisbury offensive star, Mil- ler, was checked by this new defense and meant our margin of victory. Until the fourth quarter it was either team's ball game, until the Blue and Gold hoopsters stepped up the attack. The Salisbury downfall came in the fourth quarter as the deadly eye of Fran Ptak proved its ability to judge the hoop. Nonne emerged as the high scorer of the day with twenty-eight. joe Comalli hooped eight. Hammersly of Salisbury cut the cords for fourteen. Fine defen- sive play was shown by Joe Comalli and Bill Healy. 5 it Hs, f VARSITY BASKETBALL RECORD Cranwell Darrow 44 Cranwell Salisbury Cranwell Berkshire 36 Cranwell Suffield Cranwell Collegiate Prep 42 Cranwell Loomis Cranwell Kingswood 40 Cranwell Darrow Cranwell Williston 48 Cranwell Salisbury JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL RECORD Cranwell Darrow 22 Cranwell 26 - Williston Cranwell Berkshire 30 Cranwell 30 - Salisbury Cranwell Kingswood 17 Cranwell 36 - Darrow Cranwell 31 -- Salisbury 23 Page One hundred thirty-two 9 45, 54 ? ig SM5 is ikmi. 4.

A rapidly rising interest in soccer greeted Fr. Tobin as he viewed the season's prospects. The excellent schedule had aroused keen enthusiasm among the students and many turned out to try their hand. Captain Gil Vernet, the fleet-footed Frenchman, assumed his customary role of centerhalf. Deceptive dribbling merited Gene Dwyer and Bryant Langmuir from the Dominion of Canada the other halfback slots. The smoothly functioning trio added much needed experience to the team and formed a nucleus for the remainder of the squad. Neophyte Tom Meldon and Mike Craig were greatly welcomed additions to the forward line. Their agil- ity and willingness to learn proved them invaluable on offense. The determina- tion of aggressive Tony Bellucci accounted for many an opponent's headache. I-lard-hitting joe Powers starred at fullback and Larry Sisson served as an effi- cient, well-rounded substitute. Among the underclassmen, who showed outstand- ing promise, were goalie Don Lucca and forward Denny Dwyer. Despite many bad breaks and the realization of the pressing need for more trial under hrev, the Cranes achieved an honored niche in the short history PKR Q Qh Page Une lzumlrerl llmli flllff -fa, aa . ES Q , ' S 'C ' -ff-N 1 -T '5 T ff' !o V gf' 'flsao 0 Page One hundred thirty-four of soccer in the Berkshires. We feel certain that the sport is here to stay and will reach greater heights in the not too distant future. Through perseverance and tireless efforts, Fr. Tobin has inaugurated a lasting sport at Cranwell. He will always share in the team's accomplishments. We would like to extend this expression of gratitude to an excellent coach and a fine sportsman. CRANWELL vs. DARROW Saturday, the 8th of October, saw the first varsity match with Darrow School at Darrow. Two weeks of assiduous practice terminated the pre-season preparations. The squad was blessed with excellent weather, an overcast and warm afternoon. Cranwell provided an excellent showing in the Hrst half. Neophyte wing, Tom Meldon, rolled up a one to nothing lead for the Blue and Gold before the second period of play ended. Many of Cranwell's players went on to the field never before having played in a varsity match. Yet the action centered about the Darrow goal, with the opponents held to a mere three breaks during the first forty minutes. A tired but fighting Cranwell returned to the field as the second half opened. Darrow mustered their attack and succeeded in driving the ball past Don Lucca. Their right forward, Almieda, evened the score at one all. But Cranwell was not finished by any means. Gil Vernet, our center half- back from Switzerland, staged a magnificent come-back for the Cranwellians with a shot from the outer penalty zone. We were back in the fight with an edge of two to one. Experienced Darrow renewed the fight on exhausted Cranwell during the fourth and final period. The combination of Almieda and Peterson hammered relentlessly at the weary Lucca and managed to fire in live more goals. Defeated but not discouraged, we bowed to the victors with a final six to two score. The Crane's eleven has proven its mettle and the future of soccer appears prosperous. CRANW ELL vs. ALBANY On Wednesday, October 19, the Soccer Team met Albany Academy. The Hrst home game of the season was very gratifying. Although the final score was tied at one each, the Blue and Gold fought hard and gave a good account of themselves. The first period was decidedly Albany's. Saxton scored the Academy's first goal in a blind shot during the first few minutes of play. Alerted by this, Cran- well rallied and was soon on the march into the opposition's territory. Midway in the second quarter, Gil Vernet, Cranwell's center halfback, drove a searing penalty kick through Albany's goaltender to even the score. During the third period both teams fought to gain a lead but neither would give any ground. Cranwell's hopes soared when Vernet kicked another eleven meter foul, but his shot was wide. Albany strengthened their attack in the final period, but the Cranwell defense held and stopped their drive. Thus the game ended at one goal each. We hope that the next game with Albany will mean a victory for Cran- well. With that fine fighting team it should. gwrwyf M SB Q 3 Q b D :GEM L ' !fQL? 4394fn Si' - if .

The weather was deceiving. Early sunshine rapidly faded to a heavy autumn downpour. A wet, soggy field made dribbling difficult. Heavy midfield skirmishes highlighted the first half, but both teams found it extremely difficult to gain ground. A long, poorly aimed pass became a Kingswood goal when their right wing cut in from the side lines. Almost simultaneously the whistle ended the first half. The Blue and Gold came back with more fight than ever. The more ex- perienced Kingswood eleven gained momentum but halfbacks Dwyer, Vernet and Langmuir repulsed their attacks again and again. Irony overtook the Cranes. Vidal's miscalculation of a pass caught goalie Lucca off guard and the Red and Black tallied again. It could have happened to anyone. With only seconds left, Kingswood centerhalf scored the inevitable goal on an eleven meter penalty against Cranwell. Thus ended the match 3-O. g CRANWELL fur. SUFFIELD The Soccer Team met Suffield on October 28. Cranwell kicked off to Suffield with a long punt deep into enemy territory. But the attack halted for the duration of the first period. A more agile Suffield repeatedly dribbled deep into our ground. Despite an excellent defense, the law of averages was against us. Stevenson and Romano both tallied twice placing Suffield at a four to nothing ad- vantage over the Blue and Gold. The second quarter was comparatively uneventful since circumstances forced our halfback line of Langmuir, Vernet and Dwyer to play a purely defen- sive game. A second-half shift in formation relieved the halfbacks of the strain imposed upon them. Roving fullback, Joe Powers, stopped Suffield's aggression and per- mitted the Cranes to renew their attack. Under a heavy strain, Vernet narrowly missed an eleven meter foul which would have started Cranwell on the ascent. A fleeting final period saw Cranwell resume their impetus but time was not in our favor. Consequently another match has been chalked up to experience. CRANWELL vs. ALBANY Evenly matched Albany and Cranwell faced each other on November 2. Cranwell was out to better a previous one all tie. Our forward line hammered the ball incessantly toward pay dirt but the breaks were against us in the first half. Even with two fouls against Cranwell, Albany also failed to realize any score in the first and second periods. During the third period, Cranwell strengthened their attack, while Meldon, Craig and Bellucci watched attentively for any opportunity to break the ice . Despite magnificent guarding of the cage, goalie Don Lucca lost the ball in the sun and Albany took a one to nothing edge over the team from Lenox. Thus ended the period. The Cranes livened the attack even more during the last period. The front line furiously pounded the Academy's goalie and once succeeded in downing him and the ball. But a penalty prevented any score. Again the clock ran out and the final game of the season ended in a loss. X R VY?

Hockey During a Winter noted for its unfavorable weather, the Cranwell Hockey Team was forced to play its only game of the season without any lengthy practice sessions to their credit. However, they still managed to win this one game with an impressive showing. Father Felix Talbot, S. KI., managed to choose his two lines during the brief practices and had the weather allowed ice the potentially strong sextet would have had a better chance to demonstrate their ability. Captain Bill Hickey and Bob De Blois excelled in their roll as defense men while Frank Sullivan and Dave Reynolds held down the wing slots on the first line. Bob Sullivan performed admirably in the center position with Charlie Pelczarski. Bede Sullivan, Donny Shea, Andy Shea, Bill O'Herron, and George Flynn rounded out the linemen. Bill Culhane and Tony Bellucei, both Seniors, alternated tending the goal with Skip Couzens, a Sophomore. swf 'Pe CRANWELL vs, ALBANY ACADEMY The Cranwell Hockey Team played their only game of the season against Albany Academy at Troy, New York. Using an indoor rink for the first time the players were somewhat dismayed at the appearance of such a large rink. However, the Blue and Gold with very little practice and no scrimmages sur- prised everyone with their fine skating and scoring attack. Frank Sullivan started off the scoring for Cranwell with an assist from Dave Reynolds at 2:35. With the aid of Charlie Pelczarski, George Flynn made it two at 5:07. For the remainder of the period there was no scoring on the part of either team due to the aggressive defensive play. Cranwell, with Bill Culhane tending goal, was in no trouble. Bill stopped many shots that looked like sure goals. In the second stanza Dave Reynolds scored our third goal with an assist from Bob Sullivan at 2:15. Donny Shea then came back with another at 2:35, unassisted. George Flynn knocked in his second score of the day with a neat assist by Andy Shea. Chine of Albany scored the first goal for the New Yorkers at 7:30. At the end of the second period Cranwell was way out ahead 5-1. In the final canto Frovian of Albany scored the final goal of the game at 3:24. Once again good defense by Capt. Bill Hickey and Bob De Blois held the opposition to only one goal. The final score was Cranwell 5, Albany Academy 2. WT CAPTAIN HICKEY Q65 HRH? Q 'lf 5+ s 52 4' 11656 -S . Pa e One l1u.mz'red , i I P Va g th 1 y seven QW a 32 is fw,,1l' ' Y fl' 0 no QL Q ,. J..

Despite relative inexperience present, the team shapes up as an unusually talented machine. Francis Ptak, Bill Healy, and the speedy Sophomore, George Flynn, form the nucleus of a dependable pitching staff, while sharp-hitting Eddie Norton will don the catcher's equipment and handle their curves and fast balls with the ease of a veteran. Captain Bill Hickey, he of the fine Wrist action, stands alone at the hot corner. At his left, Frank Sullivan, a transplanted outfielder, cavorts smoothly to both sides of shortstop. His partner on double plays will be Pete Gillespie, starting his fourth year as the key man in Cranwell's infield. Tony Bellucci appears ticketed for possession of first base. In the outheld, there is one sure starter-Tom Brett. The fleet junior is headed for a fine season. A hard battle rages for the two other pasture posts, but two Bobs, Sullivan and De Blois, look as if they have the inside track. . . me lfzgr Une lzunrfrerl llllff-Y-GLQIII 'Q as Eli.

Golf XY ith the coming of the Spring sports many golf enthusiasts to the fair- ways to practice their shots and help bolster the golf team. Faced with a diffi- cult schedule of matches, the few weeks that remained before the first fray were well spent on the greens and fairways. Since graduation last year did not take any of the regular players, the original team is still intact. Bob Shea, Charlie and Ray Murphy, and Gil Ver- net will be on hand to take on all opposition this season. Bob Shea, noted for his steady all-around play both on the greens and in the fairways, will be counted upon for many winning points. Charlie Murphy's fluid swing enables him to belt a long, straight ball, and combined with a steady game on the green will make him a dangerous foe on the links. Ray Murphy and Gil Vernet will round out a well-balanced squad. Others showing great promise are underelassmen Frank Bensel and Vin Kelley. Frank has a smooth style and with Vin Kelley, another long ball hit- ter, will prove excellent contenders.
