We present our yearbook, Volume VI of THE CHEVRON, with a feeling of having achieved our goal. It was an advantage to have as a basis for our work last year's issue, which was a difficult one to beat. But, even though it helped us with the solution of some problems, there were many more that confronted us. The financial difficulties of publication were overcome only because of an especially efficient business manager and a hard-working staff. A scarcity of writers threw the editorial responsibilities upon the shoulders of a few, who proved capable of handling their load. Through- out the work success was insured by a spirit of cooperation and determination in the class and the care and guidance of our advisor. We have tried to improve our CHEVRON by making it just a bit more pleasing to the eye-smarter. The cover is distinctive, special attention has been given to set-up, arrange- ment, and choice oftype. The writing is tinted with a per- sonal styleg photography features the candid shot. Above all, our yearbook is representative not merely of the Senior Class but rather of DeVeaux School. It is meant to be a memento that we can turn to years from now, and remember- a souvenir of our school. We wish, finally, to express our sincere gratitude to our headmaster, Dr. Barton, to Mr. Stanley C. Roney, to Mr. Charles Metz, and to Miss lane Hardcastle, for their great interest in the success of this publication and to our advertisers whose generosity insured the presentation of THE CHEVRON of 1940. ,.,-:II 5 Fc.. IN MEMORIAM HE Class of 1940 will always be saddened by the remembrance that the year of their graduation was also that of the death of Dr. Barrows. Though few of us actually knew him, we all have sensed the great influence which this great educator and true Christian exercised over DeVeaux. XVe know that it was his remarkable ability and intense devotion that raised the school to a new, high level of standing and prestige. Fiore important, we remember that he was a man whom all boys loved, who could down the best of them in tennis and inspire the most reluctant with a zeal for learning. His power over boys, so many of whom he directed to success and happiness, resulted from a strong, masculine personality. His own helpful, successful life was the result of his high ideals and time character. We are both proud and sad in paying tribute in our CHEVRON of 1940 to a truly great man-to Barrows of DeVeaux. l ,QI 4 Ig.. THE REV. DR. WILLIAM S. BARROWS 5 Ig.. DEDICATED mi FREDERICK W. BUTTON O other person has been of greater help to the Class of 1940 than Mr. Button. He was chosen as a man who would understand, help, and direct us in our problems, both scholastic and personal. Under his able and thoughtful guidance, we have at last reached the end of our journey-a journey which has been made easier and more enjoyable by his devoted and everlasting elforts. It is for these reasons, therefore, that this issue of THE CHEVRON is a monument to his care and tact in handling a group of boys with the varied opinions that we have had. We shall always remember our advisor, who turned many of our ideas into concrete facts and showed us the foolhardiness of others. In years to come, Mr. Button will be outstanding in our memories of DeVeaux. We shall remember him, not as a master, but as one of the Class of '4O. TO THE SENIORS OF 1940 T is with a mingled sense of happiness and regret that I write these words of farewell to you boys whom it has been my privilege to associate with and to guide during the past four years. As your advisor I am delighted and proud of the fact that you are about to realize a most cherished ambition, that of graduating from DeVeaux School. But your gradua- tion also means the severance of an intimate associa- tion which has been a constant source of pleasure for me, and because of this I am deeply sorry. As you leave the portals of a school which has diligently attempted to inculcate in you the Christian ideals of living so well exemplified by its founder, Samuel DeVeaux, it is my fervent hope that you, by your practice of these ideals in your own daily lives, will not only prove worthy sons of Deveaux but that you will also fully justify that faith which is the foundation of the school. May you ever recall the days which you have spent here as among the happiest and most helpful of your lives, and may you never lose your interest in, nor your love for, the school which it is your privilege to call your Alma Mater. My sincere best wishes to each of you. FREDERICK W.

Tom has done more in three years than the average fellow could do in Eve. He has proved consistently that he is the finest scholar of the graduating class, but his abilities do not end here by any means. He has been a member of the tennis team for two years, taken an active part in practically every school activity and has always shown the willing courtesy and friendliness everyone admires. ' Tom 'was Head Boy last year when only a Iunior and is expected to claim the same honor this Iune when he receives his diploma. His favorite sport-figure skating-has seen him the senior champion of his skating club, an honor even greater than it sounds. One must see him skate before any appreciation of his skill can be realized 5 and it is surprising the advan- tage this proficiency gives him in various fields. Tom is rather undecided about his plans for the future, but he has said that he might undertake atomic physics for his college study. Whatever he does and wherever he goes, Tom will take with him the unanimous admiration of his classmates and the best wishes of his friends. W. W. B. ff Tom!!

Princelon Un i0l!l'J'ifLlf --Q1 14 Ie-- WILLIAM WILSON BROOKS 1957-1940 F this eminent member of our class never very dexterously handled Burns or mathematics, the same obviously cannot be said for most other things-such as big words or a golf stick. In the three short years that he has carved out his brilliant career at Deveaux, W. W. has used both of these abilities to advan- tage-the former, combined with a forceful and effective style of writing, in his studies and as an invaluable member of DeVeauxnian and Chevron staff, the latter in the field of golf, involving not only captaincy of the school team but even prominence in various outstanding tournaments. Besides displaying scholastic capability and athletic proficiency twith tennis racket and soccer boot as well as niblickj, Bill stands out in his military accom- plishments. His post of Cadet First Lieutenant and Adjutant is the highest one open to him as a day boy. And too, as number one exponent of wit, Flup-Iupn is highly respected by his classmates. Overshadowing a cursory interest, which has brought into his train from all points of the compass many a femme exquisite, is a comprehensive one which has given him an unusual knowledge of anthropology. It is the study of this subject-to be his inevitably successful life's work'-that he will pursue next year at the University of Michigan. Good luck, Bill. T. C.

B. may mean little to an outsider, but around DeVeaux they stand for Sergeant Iohn Conn from Lyons, New York. His six years at DeVeaux enable HI. B. to boast of seeing more years of the school than any other member of his class. Conscientious use of these years Ends him advanced in a military way to the post of sergeant. In the classroom Iohn has won honor medals in the Lower School and in his freshman and sophomore years. Considering the more rigid work of the last two years, he has a record to be proud of. On the athletic field he has devoted his energies to soccer and baseball, earning positions on the Varsity squads in both of these sports. Socially the Yokel Boy's tastes range from trips to foreign lands across the border to watching a swing band perform in Buffalo. About the campus, when not busy blowing bugles or cutting out clippings about the Lyon's athletic teams, he is likely to be found in the smoking room telling the boys about the home town. Next year HI. B. has high hopes of entering the Coast Guard Academy, where he will learn the ropes of a dilterent kind of military life. We know that no matter what he does our classmate has the ability to overcome any obstacles in his life. R. H. N. Naam wi' w fe, im in axle?

Erie, Pa. is his home town and he is staunch in his defense of this little city on the lake. During his comparatively short stay here, HTiny, besides maintaining a steadily good scholastic record, has been active in other ways, as exampled by his important post as photography editor of the Chevron Mr. Eastman is no mean hand with a saxophone-even without much practice -as his dorm-mates will testify. He is widely known as a foremost expert on the very technical subject of swing, which is his idyllic delight. Perhaps because Glenn Miller is so well represented in his record collection, his com- bination phonograph-radio has taken a terrific beating from fellow cadets. Sam has many ideas about his future but is having a difficult time deciding definitely. By showing a specific interest in chemistry, he gives the impression of wanting to revolutionize science. He may enter the University of Michigan to concentrate in organic chemistry. Whatew'er he does, after stepping up to receive his diploma in Iune, we know that his genial and intelligent nature will carry him to the very top. I. P. M.

This slow, expressionless remark announces the presence of lug, Elmira's one and only contribution to DeVeaux. You cannot help but notice him, for he is a basketball and baseball star, charges around the tennis courts with no small ability, and vanquishes all foes at an exciting game of ping-pong. On Thursdays his six feet of bone and muscle can be seen strolling nonchalantly clown to the bowling alleys or, still more non- chalantly, walking oft the week's accumulated demerits on punishment tours. Not prominent in any of the social events of the school until his Senior year, lug really proved his worth at the Sophomore dance, and since has been known to undertake long journeys into the wilds of Canada. Although not an honor student in every subject, Bob exhibits the fine qualities of determination and conscientiousness, sticking to his job until he masters it. He has an extremely rational mind, as he has frequently shown in the so-called bull-sessions. When another class graduates this Iune, we shall have to say Goodbye to one of the school's best athletes. A rough exterior hides a heart of gold, and he leaves with the combined and sincere wish of success from everybody. We're with you, lug H. M.

After a moment's groping through a smoke screen we come upon our old pal Two-gun Dick Halwig, contentedly puffing on his pipe. Entering the sacred portals of DeVeaux in September, 1958, Dick, despite his pipe, has carved for himself, with his good-natured manner, a permanent place in the hearts of his fellow cadets. Since his first year here, his varied ability has earned for him credit ranging from a corporalship or work as an actor in the Little Theatre to his position as our senior cheerleader. Furthermore, he is on the DeVeauxnian advertising staff and has handled admirably his job as business manager of this year's Chevron, While concentrating on school life, Corporal Dick does not, by any means, neglect his outside activities. At spare moments he can be found sitting at his desk writing letters and has even been known to make use of long-distant tele- phone calls. VVe don't know whether it is the uniform or not but at every oppor- tunity some fair damsel is enjoying his pleasant company. When Two-gun leaves DeVeaux next Iune he expects to take a training course which will enable him to become a mortician. Well, Dick, we wish you the best of luck in all your undertakings, and we sure will miss you. G. D. M.

Though not an athletic fellow, this veteran member of our class excels in the scholastic field, as is evidenced at each dance, when he sports innumerable gleaming medals. Efficient, friendly, cooperative, Hlaken has made many a lasting friend on his climb to the heights of graduation. His ability to produce an appropriate comment in the classroom has provided entertainment for classmates and masters alike. His methods of studying and preparing assignments have also been skillful. Displaying interest and aptitude in chemistry and aeronautics, Fritz intends to fashion a career in one of these fields. His knowledge of aviation and chemistry Cespecially the more violent sidej is astounding. If fake brings to fruition some of his half-formed theories and experiments, the world may well be startled by activities as remarkable as those of his favorite fictional character- Superman In chemistry or aviation we feel that this classmate of ours will go straight to the top when he leaves DeVeaux, for cheerfulness and success have always gone together. - ' H ami w W.

DELOS HORNING JOHNSON 1956-1940 HE Fall of 1956 saw the entrance into Deveaux School of one Flip Iohnson, resident of Utica, N. Y. Porky, when he first came to live with us, was a mite shy, but it did not take him long to acquaint himself, and to win a close circle of friends. Many have been the times when he has kept us wondering at his views on foreign affairs and governmental management. Though not an ardent smoker, Flip has often used the smoking room in expounding his theories on the political and economic life of the country. At times Porky puts aside his political views for more important activities. For some time he has been keeping steady company with one of the local gals, who, it has been rumored, leads him a merry chase and has proved to be his equal in several ways. Being a lover of the classics, Flip is well informed on opera, and the classical composers. There are few compositions about which he is not well informed. In a military way he has attained a sergeant's rank. Next year Flip will enter Pomona College as a member of the class of '44. We wish him all the luck in the world in his college career, and in whatever path in life he chooses. R. F. P. ff-Pork,-yi!

Due to his aversion to the military system, he has never excelled in this Held, not because of lack of capability, but because of a well-known streak of indi- Vidualism. A confirmed bachelor, Bill leads a life devoted to sports, his school work, and his hobby, stamp collecting. His favorite pastime, however, is disagreeing with others for the sake of enjoying a nice heated argument-an argument that his keen mind will more than likely win for him. Despite this characteristic, it is seldom that he may be seen to scowl, and even then the scowl is there only to create a dramatic effect. Buck was our star soccer goalie this past Fall, and has been a first string catcher on the Varsity baseball team for two years. He is also an excellent basketball player, which explains his regular attendance at the Sunday afternoon basketball games at Niagara University. Bill has not yet decided' definitely his future vocation. Nonetheless, we need not worry concerning his future, because the world will always have a place for a fellow like this able classmate of ours who is not afraid to work. Buck .QI 22 Ig..

But let us dip back a few years into his career here. Two and one-half years ago, Howie ' was just a green rookie from over the border. As he became acquainted with the school, he soon acquired many close friends, at the same time maintaining a high standing in classes. Consequently, at the mid-year promotions in 1959 he was made a corporal, and this year finds him near the top as second Lieutenant. Popeye also has been very active in sports, especially soccer. As a matter of fact, he received his nickname for being a giant killer on the soccer field, and he captained this year's very successful team. Popular with the fairer sex, Pop has, surprisingly, devoted his attention consistently to one young lady. iHowever, certain relations in St. Catharines are not entirely clear. When Founder's Day rolls around, we all will be sorry to see Pop leave us. He most certainly has made a name for himself at DeVeaux, and we all feel that he will continue in the same path when he emerges forth into the wide world. R. A. G.

Four years ago, Mac entered the immortal halls of DeVeaux, and since that time he has shown himself to be a good student, a just officer, and a fine friend. The first half of his Iunior year, he was made a Corporal, the second half, advanced to the post of Sergeant, and in his Senior, topped the ranks when he became Captain. Knobby is also a good athlete, as his three Varsity letters prove. He has distinguished himself as forward center on the soccer team, gained a letter in baseball, playing second base, and one in basketball as a guard. He lis by his efforts in these fields gained membership in the renowned Tri-Delts. George has also served faithfully on the more serious side of school life. Besides having been a member of the Student Council for two years, he turned in a fine job, in his Senior year, as Advertising Manager for the DeVeauxnian and on the business staff of the Chevron Though he has not made definite plans for his future, we all feel that Cap will be a success in life, so it is with a feeling of deep regret that we say Auf YViedersehen to him this Founder's Day.

However, his home in LaSalle has given him connections with the fairer sex of that part of the city that have stood him in good stead till this day. Umphug's Junior year found him a Corporal, and, because of his continued high standing, in his Senior year, as first Lieutenant, the second highest ranking post in the school was his. As a platoon leader there is none finer to be found anywhere. Athletics have always appealed to Moe. In his earlier years, he secured positions on Midget and Iayvee teams, and, later, both as player and manager, he has been prominent in various sports.

During the Fall he was to be seen either on the Varsity soccer field or playing touch-football with DeVeaux's All-Americans. The wintry season found him Uswishingu basketballs from every angle in the Field- - house, much to someone's distress or amazement. In the Spring, Prancer has been either motivating himself, with his energetic stride fthe source of his nick- namej, around the base paths and the diamond's far-flung fields or chasing a tennis ball with all the finesse of an Mace. The side of Dick's life that deals with night life and feminine society is too complex and broad to be delineated. We vouch that it has been interesting. Dick has his eye on the profession of Dentistry and if we are ever in need of such aid, we will certainly trust ourselves to our cheerful, unforgettable class- mate.

ROBERT HARVEY NEIMAN 1959-1940 HEN school began last Fall we were skeptical about certain Varsity sports. The deficiency in our athletic teams was, however, remedied some- what by a rookie find known to everyone as Nibs Neiman. This new member of our class, hailing from the thriving little metropolis of Rochester, N. Y., is a two-goal athlete at least, having proven his skill and value in soccer and basket- ball. Although a bit emotional on the basketball court, he is calm and congenial with the boys and, of course, with the women. Nibs is averse to discussing his feminine interests, but has proved that he really has a way with the opposite sex. To back this up, we point to his frequent trips to LaSalle and, more recently, across the river to a most belligerent country. He must know quite a few girls for he is always willing to fix up anyone with a blind date. Gui' Rochester cadet is not only an expert in athletics and social doings, but he often comes through scholastically. Mathematics under Mr. Heagle is prob- ably his favorite course. Nibs will be sadly missed as the Class of '40 exits this Iune, but we feel sure that, through his great ambitions and friendliness to everyone, he will be a definite credit to whatever Held of work he takes up in life.

He entered DeVeaux Eve years ago as an eighth grader and since then, has won many a friend among the cadets. As school closes this year, we find him a Color Sergeant and Crucifer. Dick's social life was more or less neglected his first few years, but lately a change has come over him. Many a letter in feminine hand and frequent use of the long-distance telephone bring proof of this. On the dance floor, Pete has a technique that causes many a sigh from the fairer sex. His second great interest is Grand Opera, and almost any Saturday afternoon during the Winter, he could he found next to a radio listening to the strains of Wagner and Verdi. Although not outstanding in athletics, he can play a hard game of tennis, and can produce queer contortions on the parallel bars. His work on the DeVeaux- nian and Chevron staffs has made him a great help to his school and class. Next year, our Color Sergeant hopes to attend the Simmons School of Mor- tuary Science. We wish him all the luck in the world, and we know that his friendly manner and good-naturedness will win him friends in all sides of his life. ' D. H. J.

Possessed of ability sufficient to succeed at whatever he places as his goal, Van has led a varied career at DeVeaux. At the top of the Honor Roll, on the stage of the Little Theatre, in repulsing DeVeaux's athletic foes, as an invaluable worker on DeVeauxnian and Chev- ron staff, acting on the Student Council, Bob has chalked up an enviable record to his credit. In a military way, he has risen from the ranks to the position of top Color Sergeant. In mathematics special proficiency is his, for he is innately of a mathematical turn of mind. However, his greatest interest-not being in the fields of femininity, though more than one beauteous damsel has wished in vain that it were-lies in travel and adventure, and in diplomacy. It would not be surprising to find Bob some day carrying out effective policies in dealing with this or that foreign nation. Planning to enter Princeton next Fall, Van will leave DeVeaux with a trail of well-earned honors and a group of loyal friends who know that he is bound to gain his goal of success and happiness. R.

Y. is his home town and he is rightfully proud of it. Academically he has had his weak moments, but in the past eight months there has been no more conscientious worker than our Senior Corporal in Dorm UA. His mates in A will readily affirm this. One of his pastimes that provides others with entertainment is his energetic thumping on a bass fiddle. His experience in an orchestra has given him a strong sense of rhythm. A love of music is a part of Willie's make-up, just as a certain carefree cheerfulness is a part of his character. The infrequent school dances find him in his glory with a favorite girl, whirling about on the polished gym floor. His circle of intimate friends is as huge as one could imagine of a fellow with such a contagious laughter and willingness to share the pleasant things of life. Iimmy's plans for the future are tentatively based upon a desire to study hotel management at Cornell University. His graduation will rob Deveaux of a cadet Whose accomplishments have been greater than many realize. For we, as his associates, know him as a gentleman, and a true friend. W. W.

LEWIS VER since he became connected with DeVeaux by the marriage of his daughter to Mr. VVilliam S. Hudson, former member of our teaching staff, lVlr. Lewis has been a familiar and well-loved figure about the campus. This year, in generously assuming duties as acting chaplain, he has displayed his characteristic willingness to be helpful to others. A varied and busy life that has included active service in churches of Ohio and New York and extensive travel in the Xvest Indies where he spent his child- hood, has provided Mr. Lewis with much experience and many opportunities to be of use to his fellow men. He understands and loves boys, for he has brought up five sons of his own. Boys, young and old, respect and love him, not just because he is ever ready with a clever suggestion or an entertaining party, but because they realize the fine character that lies behind his cheerful exterior. Our chaplain has attained that philosophyiwhich enables him to enjoy life to its fullest extent while living only to aid others to be as happy as he. In consequence of these thoughts, we, the Class of 1940, wish to express our deep gratitude and sincere appreciation for Mr. XVilliam H. G. Lewis-our counselor and our friend. , E al 51 112-- SENIOR CLASS HISTORY RONI an insignificant beginning to a senior year crowned with noble achievement. Thus may briefly be given a history of the 6 years of joy and care which we the Class of '40 have been privileged to enjoy within the walls of this, our Alma Mater, in preparation for college and life. During these years at DeVeaux the Class of '40 has developed from a mere handful of enthusiastic youngsters into the senior class dominating the many fields of school activity. During the period when the Class of '40 was absorbing the three R's under the watchful eye of Mr. Reed, the interests of its members were being diverted into various fields, including cub athletic activities, lower school tennis, the collection of stamps, kite flying, and model airplane building. Three times a week the younger element was subject to rigorous training in the art of playing the drum or bugle under the skilled guidance of Corporal Root and Sergeant Hoffman, who headed DeVeaux's Sour Note Dispensory at the time. At the same time the majordomo of the Lower School was starting the training of a youthful group of philatelists and initiating the wide-eyed rookies into the mysteries of glider flying and model building. Finally these childish longings for playing in one form or another passed off along with dozens of unsuccessful attempts at skin-gaming fthe art of making up an excuse adequate for providing one with a means of escaping some distasteful activityj and the class prepared to embark in pursuit of a four year course preparatory to graduation. Our freshman year began with diligent study accompanied by feverish preparation for the first class prom. During the fall and winter, members of the Class of '40 were to be found participating in every recreation and sport which the school offered, starring on the midget soccer and layvee basketball teams. Then after spring recess the class returned to the campus to pour laboriously over their studies in preparation for the june exams, to play Catj golf and tennis and give their all to the cause of a midget baseball victory. On Founder's Day, all having fared well in the examinations, we duly received a large percentage of the scholastic prizes presented. So the Class of '40 passed its first milestone on the road to a DeVeaux diploma. At the beginning of our Sophomore year the membership of the class rose to a new high and along with the new fellows came athletic as well as scholastic abilities. Bob Gruhlke, our star first baseman and basketball center, came with his wealth of talent, and our brilliant day boy triumvirate, SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Tom Atchison, Bill Brooks, and Bob Van Yvagoner, arrived with their limitless store of knowledge. Those of the class who were inclined toward the literary turned to reporting for The DeVeauxnian as an outlet for their excess energy, and those who possessed acting ability attempted to prove it in the spring tryouts for the Little Theatre. After a year of diligent attacks on Caesar and Plane Geometry, accompanied by multitudinous care and worry, the class joyfully greeted the long awaited Founder's Day, having successfully weathered the storm of traditionally distasteful ex- aminations. Upon the expiration of a much enjoyed and needed recess of two and one-half months duration, the Class of '40 returned as Iuniors to begin a year of rivalry with the Senior class for scholastic, military, and literary honors. In the field of athletics members of the class held varsity positions on the soccer, tennis, golf, basketball, and baseball teams for the first time. The scholastic year seemed to us to be one big worry and one long series of unsuccessful attempts to get late lights to do more studying. XVhat would drill have been for the Seniors without the then lowly Iuniors to carry out and see to the carrying out of the orders issued by the Senior bigwigs? But those days are gone forever, and we must now consider in retrospect our actions as the senior class. Like a bolt from the blue our senior year has come upon us, finding us slightly surprised but not unprepared to steer our course toward graduation. At the beginning of the year a burden of responsibilities as leaders in all school activities was placed upon our shoulders-a burden, the weight of which we have borne to the best of our abilities. The student council has consistently striven toward a better order in school life and from all appear- ances seems to have been rewarded for its endeavour. During the fall our soccer team, under senior leadership, established an enviable record of victories, and immediately following this came a successful basketball season. As to the athletic achievements of the spring, the golf, baseball, and tennis' teams displayed a large amount of talent in each of their respective fields. Scholastically-and in every other way-we have attempted during this final year to secure a sound foundation for the life that lies ahead of us. So now, as the portals of the future are about to open to us and we look back with mixed feelings upon our years at Deveaux, we take with us the knowledge acquired from many pleasant experiences. And we leave to our successors an unexcelled Alma Mater, whose motto Fortiter, Fideliter, Feliciterf' we shall ever use as our guide in life. -ar 35 ps..

Ties that bind us intimately with a loved school are but sorrowfully severed. The strangeness of our first day, cramming for exams, the crack of bat against ball as the winning run is driven home or the swish as a basket is sunk from quarter-court, Thursdays on-bounds, uncomfort- able moments in the commandant's office, the flash and color of full dress parade, dances in the Fieldhouse, moonlight strolls on the campus, the carefree joyful- ness of Founder's Day--memories like these are a part of our school that will ever be a part of us. Indeed, when viewed in the softening light of retrospect, our life in the comparative sheltered atmosphere of DeVeaux has been a valued preparation for the un- known experiences that we now face. Each one of us begins to appreciate the varied lessons he has learned, oft-times rebelliously and painfully, under the under- standing guidance of those whose true worth he begins to realize. Each is truly grateful. And now, since the Class of 1940 is about to vanish from the familiar halls of DeVeaux, we must bid fare- well to the school which has provided us with a train- ing, and with memories, that will not fail us. 59 Ig.. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT HEREAS it is better to give than to receive, we, the Class of 1940, take it upon ourselves to make a few bequests to less fortunate members of our school and also to the members of the hard-working faculty who have struggled to impart to us the knowledge which we are supposed to need. Without discussing our collective mental aberrations C3515 pleaseb we hereby make public our Last Will and Testament which is to become effective on the wonderful day of Iune, the twenty-second, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty at exactly three o'clock in the afternoon. 1. To each and every member of our esteemed faculty, and especially to lV1r. Button, who has done the lion's share of worrying about this year's Chevron, we give our heartiest thanks. We only hope that we can prove as helpful to others as they have to us. 11. To that humble group known, practically unknown, as the Iunior class, we leave our best wishes, even with which magnificent encouragement we fear they will not be able to overcome their obvious difficulties-namely sixteen little Iuniors. 111. To the smooth class of 1942 which has yet to emerge from their Lower School complex, we present one year of toil, suffering, and grumbling under the hawk-eyed discipline of the Iuniors. IV. To the tongue-tied Freshmen we leave Deveaux School with a new organ tthey hopeb, a mammoth swimming pool with six diving boards, and as many docking pads as they think they will need to look military. V. And, of course, the following indispensable list of individual gifts: 1. To Hairless loc Scalzo, one bottle of hair tonic. 2. To Atchison, R., Van Wagoner's size HM shoes. 5. To 57 Heinze, Brooks' book of assorted excuses. 4. To Kitts, just one clean week and a clean pair of glasses. 5. To Meredith, Cap MacGregor's athletic versatility. 6. To Hallenstein, Neiman's flawless technique with women. 7. To Carveth, D., Winchester's basketball uniform. 8. To Doswell, Morrison's raincoat and umbrella for those rainy nights in Dorm D with VVillson, etc. 9. To Willson, Conn's promptness in blowing the bugle. 10. To Ansteth, Tom Atchison's Head Boy honors and three boxes of headache pills to relieve the pain thereof. 11., To Hooker Lehrle, Eastman's Glenn Miller records. 12. To Carpenter, Krausmann's nonchalance in class. 15. To Nug Williams, Halwig's prayer book and hymnal. 14. To Persohn, Pop Liddicoat's cigarette case and lighter. 1:41 40 Ig.. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT 15. To Axy Dent, Gruhlke's ping-pong paddle. 16. To Baker, Peterson's place in the color guard. 17. To lV1iss Ienne, a silver certificate which she can use to pay her telephone bills so enlarged by the class of '40. 18. To Ziegler, Porky lohnson's ability to use strong-arm tactics on Wednes- day nights. 19. To any future class, a business manager as persistent and efficient as Halwig. 20. To Schneider, Morrow's address book. 21. To Myers, T., lake Iacoby's chemical view on life. 22. To Stover, Williamson's deed to the First Floor Barber Shop and an assistant like Flip Metz. 25. To Watt, Krausmann's aptitude in military matters. 24. To Beef Hagner and Ed West, the hope that they won't have to walk tor workj too much next year. 25. To Klock, a platinum basketball for his Hue efforts in that sport. 26. To Bowser Bell, Dixie Dunbar, and Lois White, three pearl-handled canes to wow their gals. 27. To Pratt, Vandeburgh, and MacGregor, C., another year in Dorm C. 28. To Taylor and Sleepy Day, an automatic floor-sweeper to conserve their energy. 29. To Knox, our diminutive sports fan, a membership in the Tri-Delts. 50. To Dickerson, R., audeep bass voice. 51. To Williams, VV., a human haircut. 52. To Mr. Reed, our thanks for his hobbies Cfor those who were on boundsnj. 55. To Miss Carroll, a new paint brush. 54. To MacBain, the job of producing a winning golf team. 55. To Mr. Metz, our sincere appreciation of his efforts to introduce new athletic programs for every season. 56. To Schoelles, Neiman's interest in figure skating. 57. To Crandall, the usual day-boys' prerogative of going to Canada for beauty. 58. To Mr. Roney, another English IV class with a rousing sense of humor for at least with sensej. 59. To Bickle, Plow Jockey Conn's stories of his farm life. 40. To the Ohlhues brothers, a chauffeur who can get them back on time. 41. To Cushing, Williamson's inimitable line. Having made these bequests, we, the Class of 1940, find it highly inadvisable to add our signatures but we will affix our names collectively in the form of our class' date of graduation.

IVIARTIN ACED with a sad depletion in its ranks the choir was almost completely reorganized this year by Mr. Martin, our organist and choirmaster. Gone were last year's basses, half of the tenor section and three sopranos. Many rookies found places in the choir, however, and, after several weeks of application, they showed definite progress and vocal improvement. The Candlelight Service, the traditional way of observing the birth of Christ at DeVeaux, was the high spot of the choral season. At this time the usual program was arranged and the chapel, through the kind donations of Mrs. Barton and others, was again beautifully adorned with holly and candles. At Easter another special service was given in which the choir showed best its steady improvement. The choir supper ended the list of events and the usual good time was enjoyed by everyone with the im- promptu speeches, Latin grace, and popular songs. The school owes a debt of gratitude to Mr. Martin who has, for ten years, continued to give DeVeaux a choir of which it can he proud. May' future choirs appreciate his ettorts as wholeheartedly as this year's group has done. SOPRANOS ALTOS RODNEY CARVETH ..,........ . , . yrs ROBERT ANSTETH, . .. . . . 4 yrs.

THE LITTLE THEATRE HE election of officers for the DeVeaux Little Theatre ended with the election of Robert Williams as President, Frederick Winchester as Vice-President, and Richard Halwig as Secretary and Treasurer. Immediately upon promotion, the new officers took over complete management of the theatre, and plans for the presentations were submitted. As the curtain rose on the first of three one act plays entitled Copy, by Kendall Banning, the messy office of a newspaper was seen. Associate-editor Bob Yvilliams, Sports-editor Iohn Lehrle, Society-editor French, and office boy Baker, were discussing the Editor-in-chief's weakness, children, and the public school system. Shortly, Editor- in-chief Doswell entered, and informed us that his wife and child had gone on a Sunday school picnic up the Hudson River. Suddenly the news that several hundred Sunday school children and their mothers had been killed in a fire on a river boat came to the ears of Editor Doswell. Reporter Carveth was sent out to investigate the fire. News came that Lay's QDoswellj wife and child were deadg but, at the end of the play, tragedy was converted into joy when Lay's wife called him to say that she and the child were safe. Director Walter L. Harrison should be congratulated for a good job. A serious drama entitled Alchemy followed. The cellar of a burned barn was the setting. The small form of a human being was seen asleep on a couch. Voices were heard from behind the scenes, and presently three very distinguished capitalists, William Brooks, Robert Van VVagoner, and Richard Peterson, make their appearances. The purpose of their visit to this ruin, was the ingenious invention of an old hermit named He,', acted by Frederick VVinchester. The machine gave off a healthful ray that restored one's youth. Part of the process was to turn lead into gold, and then to turn the gold into a healthful ray. The capitalists realized the value of the machine, to themselves, but not to humanity. They tried to get the machine fairly, and then by force. He realizes what they wanted with the machine, and, before he can be stopped, He smashes it on the floor. Capitalist Brooks starts to reprimand He, but he stops short when He falls to the floor dead. At this, the capitalists dash out the door. This play was under the director- ship of Frederick W. Button. The final play was a farce by Herbert C. Powell. The scene was a railroad station. Head porter Eastman, was seen sleeping peacefully on his broom. Eddie Wise, the section master, played by Dick Halwig, caught Sam, and delivered a terrihc boot in the pants. Aroused thus, porter Sam was informed of the coming of the new president of the N. 81 T. R. R. CNOW and Then Railroadj, and given a description of him. Shortly, a studious look- ing fellow with silk hat, horned-rimmed glasses, and morning coat, entered, answering the description of a new information clerk, who was also expected. Due to stuttering, clerk Vandeburgh, couldn't get a word in edgewise, and so was forced to start working immediately. Next to appear was cute Betty Brown, a chocolate drop from the sunny South, really Ansteth in disguise. After clearing out Sam's pocketbook of its money for food, lady Brown makes her exit. Then a series of passengers enter-Harry Dent as a German traveler, Robert Neiman as Toe College on his way to Podunk College, Dan Ohlhues as an Italian fruit peddler Qvery realistically portrayedj, and finally, Buck Krausmann as a thug of doubtful intentions. Suddenly, after the passengers have quieted down, messenger-boy XVhite dashed in and informed station master Halwig that the clerk he expected was indisposed. Much to his embarrassment station master Halwig discovered P. P. Pierpont QVandeburghj was the president of the N. 81 T. R. R. The final scene was the shooting of Pierpont in the seat of the pants by Sam. Mr. Stanley C. Roney was the director of this play. THE CASTS ALL ABOARD A Farce by Herbert C.

Through these years amateur philatelists have worked over their albums, restored valuable blocks and discussed contemporary issues in the periodical meetings of the club. The members have always maintained interest in the work and Mr. Reed is to be congratulated for his excellent supervision of the club's activities. Included among outsiders that were interested in our club were H. Raynor, John B. Ienny, YVilliam lVilson, Robert C. Cagen, Iohn C. Reinbird and Clarence F. Griebner. Several of these men donated large albums to the club and Mr. YVilson, representing the Niagara Philatelic Society, gave the members some valuable informa- tion on acquiring a superior collection. This year has been by far the most eventful in the history of the club, and the albums received from the visitors have greatly added to the background which the club tries to provide for its student stamp-collectors. --QI 54 In-' DANCES HE evening of Friday, Iune twenty-first, will bring to an end DeVeaux's social season as the Senior Class takes pleasure in presenting the annual Founder's Eve Dance. YVith this event the five scheduled dances of the year, consisting of the four class dances plus the Senior Chevron Dance, will have been completed. All of these affairs take place in the Lewiston Road Field- house and are eagerly anticipated by the cadets as a break in school life. The traditional Hallowe'en Hop, given in October by the Freshman Class, inaugurated the social year. The gymnasium was decorated, under the able supervision of Mr. Walter L. Harrison, with many black and orange streamers, typical of the autumn season. This weird, ghostly theme was supplemented by numerous witches, goblins, and black cats placed on the walls, while Nlickey Kay's orchestra furnished the dancers with its smooth rhythm. Cider and doughnuts were served as refreshments during the half-hour intermission. Immediately after examination week, on Ianuary twenty-sixth, the Class of 1942 presented the Sophomore Dance. Since the event this year was held earlier in the season than in other years, the theme of the dance was changed to that of VV inter. In keeping with this theme, the class advisor, Mr. Stanley C. Roney, had the Fieldhouse attractively decorated with blue and silver streamers and two home-made Snowmen perched on the basketball boards. The cadets and their friends enjoyed immensely the popular music of Iohnny Mo1'ell and his orchestra and the dance proved a great success. Soon after the spring vacation had ended and DeVeaux had entered on the last stretch of the school year, the Iunior Class held its annual Iunior Prom. The theme of the dance was Spring, and to suit the atmosphere of the outdoors, the decorators, under the direction of Nlr. Charles Metz, formed a very unique arrangement of blue and silver colors about the gymnasium. This time the dancers kept step to the music of Bob Gentner's orchestra. Even in the bustle of the last month before graduation the Senior Class found time to present the, now annual, Chevron Dance on the evening of lxiay twenty-ninth. This event was introduced last year as a subscription dance for the benefit of the Chevron publication. The Fieldhouse with its background of blue and silver streamers was again the scene of the social affair. Under the supervision of the Senior Class advisor, Mr. Frederick YV. Button, the dance went off very well, and the Seniors acknowledge it a great success. V Therefore, it is with great pleasure that the Class of 1940, on the eve of its graduation, presents the Founder's Eve Dance. Not only is it the last event on the school's social calendar, but for the Seniors it is their final dance at DeVeaux. Thus we intend the evening of Iune twenty-first to be the finest in our pleasing list of DeVeaux Dances. .QI 55 Ig.. THE STUDENT COUNCIL HEN the DeVeaux Student Council was organized this fall, the same method was used in choosing its members as last year. There are tive of these, two elected by the cadet commissioned and non-commissioned officers, two chosen by the faculty, and one appointed by Dr. Barton. The cadets chosen for the Council in this way were George D. MacGregor, Robert YVilliams, Iames P. Morrison, John W. Lehrle, and Robert E. Van Wvagoner. The Council was formed in the fall of '55 to act as a medium between students and masters, thus bettering relations and conditions within the school itself, This year the Council tried to maintain and improve the high standard set by the organization in former years. The members of the Student Council thank Dr. Barton, the masters, and the cadets for their earnest help and cooperation, which have been evident all year. Also the Council wishes the best of success to next year's group in keeping the high ideals of the organization. DEVEAUX, OUR ALMA MATER DeVeaux, our Alma Mater, Of thee we sing.

Five games were won and three were tied, while the Maroon booters tallied 21 goals to their opponents' 11. October 11th found the cadets opening the season against a traditional foe in Buffalo. Nichols, by means of a kick which bounced off the goal post, gained a 1-1 tie, although they were completely outplayed for three entire quarters. Two days later a fighting Maroon eleven accomplished what no former soccer team of DeVeaux had ever done. Ridgeway of Ontario, never before beaten by the cadets, proved no match as George MacGregor, veteran center forward, led the way to a 5-1 victory. 1 Ridgeway bowed again to the Maroon kickers in the third game of the season, 2-1. MacGregor, Neiman, and Liddicoat were outstanding for the winners. A weak Gow eleven fell by 4-0 in the fourth game as they offered little resistance to the cadet forward line. On a windy day at Snyder, N. Y., the Maroon scored their fourth con- secutive victory in trimming an inexperienced Amherst H. S. eleven. MacGregor scored all four of the cadet goals. Park School of Buffalo provided stiff opposition in the sixth game of the season when they came to our field with a veteran squad. Iack Lehrle booted home the winning score for our fifth win. Gow presented a re- organized team when they engaged the cadets in the return game on their field. Playing in mud, sleet and cold, the teams fought to a hectic 2-2 tie. Evidently affected by this break in theiriwinning streak, the cadets failed to notch a third victory over Ridgeway in the eighth game. The final score showed a 1-1 tie, although Goalie Bill Krausmann made several fine saves in the final, furious period. The last game of the season saw an improved Park eleven gaining the only victory over the Maroon in the entire season. Captain Pop Liddicoat tallied one of our scores and Neiman the other. Next year's squad will include many experienced juniors and sophomores, but many seniors will be sorely missed. Among those who are to graduate are Captain Pop Liddicoat, George MacGregor, Bill Krausmann, Bob Neiman and Bill Brooks. Fred Yvinchester, a post-graduate and member of last year's fine eleven, will be gone also when next Autumn arrives with another soccer team to defend DeVeaux's laurels. --al 59 Ia-- VARSITY BASKETBALL Coach .... .....

As always, Mr. Metz molded together a team that made up in spirit what it might lack in reserve power. The opening game against Youngstown proved disastrous with the villagers winning by 56-51. Captain Bobby WVilliams showed fine form in this opener, as he did in all the other games of the season. Stamford fell in the second game with lug Gruhlke scoring 27 points. In beating NVilson the cadets played wonderful defensive basketball and kept the lead throughout. Incidentally, this game was the only one lost by Wilson, since they won over all of their conference opponents in the Niagara-Orleans County league. Nichols again proved too alert as we lost, 22-27. Niagara Falls C. I. was beaten with Bobby Williams still leading in individual scoring. The Alumni provided a wild battle but were submerged as Williams tossed in 20 points. Niagara Falls C. I. returned for another chance and fell before a fast-breaking Maroon combination that took full advantage of every scoring opportunity. Allendale, a new opponent on the schedule, failed to present a strong defense and was the sixth victim. At Ridgeway H. S. the cadets showed the ravages of vacation and lack of practice as they lost in a furious battle, 54-57. Park School and Allendale were beaten, and the return game with Wvilson arrived. Although fighting every minute, the cadets were edged out by five points on Wilson's court. VVilliams and MacGregor played splendidly in this encounter. Ridley and Youngstown showed too much power and triumphed over our quintet in successive games. The final six games of the season constituted a win- ning streak over the teams of Park, Stamford, Ridgeway, Neumann and Lake- mont, the last one being defeated twice. Captain Bobby YVilliams had a total of 287 points in the 20 games and was easily the outstanding cadet cager. Tug Gruhlke played consistently well at the center post, while Nibs Neiman, Fred VVinchester, George MacGregor and Iack Lehrle all saw plenty of action. Reserves who showed up particularly well were Bucky Krausmann, Dick Morrow, Bob Van Wagoner and Iohn Persohn. Next year should find a fairly experienced five, and, with the able coaching of Charles Metz, the Maroon cagers should continue to maintain their high standards on the Fieldhouse court and in encounters at opponents' schools. --:II 61 Ie-- VARSITY GOLF Captain ..... ...............

VARSITY GOLF FALL APTAIN Bill Brooks was the only member of last year's quartet to return for the team in the fall. Bobby Willianis, versatile junior athlete, played in number three position behind Dave MacBain, a sophomore. Bill Dunbar, also a sophomore, occupied number four post. East Aurora was beaten at the Niagara University links for the only cadet victory. Brooks established the best individual record, as he won over five of his seven opponents, and scored frequently in the middle and high seventies. Since all members of the team gained valuable experience, they are expected to do much better in the spring season. SPRING The schedule for the spring season is the same as that of the fall with the seven league teams providing the opposition. An informal match with the Old Boys may be played and the District lnterscholastic Tournament will take place at the end of the regular league matches. Captain Bill Brooks is one of the favorites in this tournament and should give a good account of himself. Al Yvhite, Melvin Baker, and Harry Dent are expected to give the regular four a stiff battle for starting berths as they did in the fall. Everyone interested in golf at DeVeaux will be entering the DeVeaux Open Tournament which takes place in the first or second week of Iune. The interest in golf in general has increased enormously, and next year will find a fairly ex- perienced group. Brooks is the only senior, but he will be greatly missed when the next golf team prepares for the fall matches. .QI Ip.. VARSITY BASEBALL Coach ..... ...., M R. CHARLES METZ Captain ......... .......

Although many of last year's regulars, who won seven games, are missing, high hopes are held in the Deveaux camp. Buck Krausmann, Bobby Williams, Freddie Winchester, lug Gruhlke, and Mac Mac- Gregor are veterans back for another season. In the workouts so far, lack Lehrle, Percy Persohn, Bill Cushing, Leon Pratt, and Phil Meredith are among those fighting for berths.

Tom Atchison, Sam Eastman, lim Williamson, Bill Brooks, and Temple Doswell are among those who are planning to try for varsity positions. Atchison and Brooks are the only experienced players, having been on last year's aggregation. Following the regular schedule the annual Bidwell tournament will take place.

The final score was 26-19, but the game was too hotly contested for the winner to be judged until the final whistle. In the first round of play, the Iuniors swamped the Freshmen by 47-13, while the Seniors defeated a strong Sophomore group by 49-55. Williams, Lehrle, I., and Persohn were outstanding for the Juniors in their first game and contributed the majority of the points. The Sophomores led by 14-15 at half-time in their battle with the Seniors, but lug Gruhlke and Bill Krausmann put the Seniors far ahead in the last two periods. The consolation round saw the Sophomores win over the inex- perienced Frosh by a huge margin. Sophomores prominent in both their encounters were Doswell, Dunbar, and 1Vhite.

As there is always a keen rivalry in all events between the Dorms of the school, this basketball was received enthusiastically by masters and cadets alike. In the first day's battles, Dorm A defeated Dorm C by 47-27, and Dorm HD , led by VVilliams, R., won over Dorm B by a 49-16 count. The second pairings saw Dorm A and Dorm D again winning. Dorm A defeated Dorm B 58-17, and Dorm D defeated Dorm 'C 45-55. It was in the first of these games that Mr. Metz made a personal appearance on the court. The Hnal day's battle saw Dorm C running over Dorm B by a 55-2 score. Dorm A was defeated by Dorm VD, 29-24, in a well fought game. Gruhlke and Williams led the offensive for their teams, scoring 10 and 12 points, respectively. To complete their claim to the school championship, the cadets of Dorm D then defeated the day boys in a hard fought struggle, by a 57-52 score. This Inter-Dorm basketball was very entertaining, and its popularity is seen in the fact that cadets are already arguing as to who is going to win the contest next year. JAYVEE BASKETBALL HIS year the coaching post for the Iayvee basketball team was taken over ' by Mr. Heagle and in his first year at this position Coach should be greatly congratulated on his ability to organize the team so well. Through the season the Iayvees played eight outside games and stood up against the teams of Lewiston, Youngstown, Wilson, St. Theresa, and Mt. Carmal. Of the eight games undertaken, four ended in victories, and thus the season closed with an even percentage. To start the season off properly the team won the Hrst three games over Lewiston, Youngstown, and Wilson, the latter game, against VVilson, being a thriller with the final score 25-24 in favor of Deveaux. Then after four straight losses the Iayvees completed the season by defeating the Lewiston five by 12-11, with Doswell's last-minute foul shot proving the difference. Prominent in the four victories of Coach Heagle's aggregation were Curly Doswell's height, Dixie Dunbar's remarkable shooting eye, Persohn's speed, and the splendid teamwork of VVhite, Crandall, Bell, WV., Gardner, Klock, and Pratt. Of course, all these advantages would have been useless without the helpful training of Coach Heagle. ,QI 67 CUB BASKETBALL NDER the coaching of Mr. Button, this year's Cub basketball team managed to salvage three games from an eight game schedule. Although an outstanding record was not accomplished, it can be said that the younger cadets gave a good account of themselves, and that they fought hard in every game. Of the players, Bell, I., Myers, R., and Normand showed much promise of becoming varsity material in future years. The other players, Knox, Karl- steen, Wollesen, and Shorts, will improve with more years of experience. The chief victory among the three games won, was the 18-10 victory over Nichols in our Fieldhouse. This game was especially important because Nichols has always been a bitter rival of DeVeaux. The other two victories were by the scores of 52-16, 58-19 over North Iunior. In their first meeting, the Cubs gave St. Peter's a hard battle, but lost out, 50-27. Cub basketball has long been one of the sources of enjoyment for the younger cadets of the School, and this year has proved that fact more than ever. YVe sincerely hope that Cub teams of the future will have much success, and that they will produce more varsity players. MIDGET AND CUB SOCCER VEN our Varsity must have experienced players and these, of course, must come from teams of lower rank. It is thus that products of the midget and cub soccer Helds soon find their way to Varsity berths. The Midget eleven this year showed better than average progress in their games as they won 2, tied 1, and lost 1 in their series of four games. Nichols, our deadly rival, suffered defeat at the Midget's hands by a 2-0 score, but was partly avenged in later winning over them by 1-0. Our first game with Gow ended in a 1-1 deadlock, but in the second contest Gow was swamped under the deluge of Midget goals, 5-0. Along with the above mentioned contest, the Midgets staged numerous practice games with the Varsity. The Midget team consisted mostly of MacGregor, C., Bell, I., Meredith, Ansteth, Dickerson, P., Baker, Pratt, Klock, Day, Vandeburgh, and Cushing. VVhile these boys should be commended for their playing, much credit must be given Mr. Strow for his splendid coaching. The Cub team under the supervision of Mr. Schultz undertook two games this year and met with surprising success. Both games were against the Nichols eleven and although the Cubs won the first by 1-O, they had to be content with a 1-1 tie in the other contest. 68 Ig.. TABLE TENNIS TOURNAMENT S a result of the generosity of the DeVeaux Athletic Association, there appeared this year in the basement of Schoellkopf Hall, two brand new table tennis tables. The cadets immediately put these tables to good use, and as a result, 55 entrants from the upper school and 9 entrants from the lower school appeared in this year's tourney. In upper school competition, Winchester, Gardner, Van Wagoner, and Gruhlke, reached the quarter-finals after some thrilling battles. Of this group, Gruhlke and Gardner survived to play in the finals. Their final match went the full limit of 5 games before Gruhlke eeked out a close victory and captured the upper school crown. In lower school competition, Myers, R., and Bell, ran through all opposition to meet each other in the Hnals. This last match was very fast, but Bell proved too much for Myers and took the title. Prizes given to the winners were two new regulation ping-pong paddles. Ping-pong, as a sport at Deveaux, has gained rapidly in favor in the last two years, and in our estimation, it will continue to do so. . SWIMMING MEET MID splashing of water and much shouting, DeVeaux's third annual swimming meet got under way at the Main Street Y on April 25. The number of contestants this year was definitely greater than last year, which shows that swimming is a popular sport at DeVeaux. Sixteen cadets were entered in the seven events. Bob Willson, ace natator of Olean, recaptured. his swimming title by scoring 14 points, 5 more than were obtained by his runner-up, Fred Yvinchester. lim XVilliamson finished in third place, with a total of 7 points. NVillson won the 20 yard free style, 40 yard free style, and was tied with XVinchester in the dives. In addition, he led the Iuniors to victory in the Inter-Class Relays.

Button, Heagle, Dietz and Persohn --:xl 69 It-b BOWLING TOURNAMENT N Marcli 21st, 1940, at the Focazio Bowling Alleys, the first annual Deveaux bowling tournament was staged. Approximately twenty-two cadets were on hand at the time appointed for the contest to begin. High single game, high three game total, high two-man total, and four- man class teams were the groups in which aspirants sought to obtain first place. The high single and high three-game totals were won by Gruhlke. He pounded the maples for a 540 total, including a 201 game, which was good enough to take single game honors. Two-man bowling honors were taken by the team of Cushing and Gruhlke who had a 957 total. The Ohlhues brothers followed this with an 815 total. The four-man class team total was won by the Iuniors. This team, composed of Ohlhues, D., Cushing, Nlyers, T., and Persohn won over the Senior team of Brooks, Gruhlke, Krausmann, and Morrison by a scant 5 pin margin. Much interest was shown in this tournament by the cadets, and from the way they received and participated in the event, it is a certainty that in the future bowling will be one of the more popular of winter sports here at DeVeaux. GYMNASTICS LMOST entirely replacing the murderous League of recent years was a new activity under the general heading of gymnastics. Divisions of this sport were weight-lifting, tumbling, boxing, hiking and wrestling. Beef Hagner was the mainstay of the weight-lifting group, while Sam Eastman and Dan Ohlhues figured prominently in this daily dozen routine. Airy Dent supplied most ofthe apparatus for these exercisers and could be seen at rare intervals lifting the smaller weights with the greatest of vigor. In the tumbling class, the Ohlhues brothers took complete charge and worked out many schemes for their students Tyrone Myers and his lower school buddies regularly put on informal shows for any curious bystanders. Some professional tumblers from Buffalo appeared in the little gym twice to entertain the members of the gymnastics class. Mr. Schultz organized a unit for hiking and running which was received with considerable enthusiasm. Hikes along the gorge were undertaken occa- sionally and there seemed to be many who wanted to become full-fledged explorers 4-:JI 70 II:- -QI 71 IP' mfywwwwwgfx TW F, , W fx M MW S 42 W E QQ S3 My U M M WWW .41 72 1 W QM MMD?
