What changes have been made, have been made with this in mind. It is their sincere desire that this has been accomplished Without sacrificing any of the more pleasing characteristics of former issues. To CHARLES HOVVARD BALDWVIN Who through many years of unvary- ing, loyal, and thoughtful service has made himself a vital figure in the formal and informal life of Deerfield We dedicate this book.

Both in the originality of content and the organization of make- up, the Scroll of 1939-1940 enjoyed what was termed one of the most successful periods in its fourteen-year-old life. Quantity and quality both were empha- sized, for not only did this year's paper contain a far greater total of pages than any other preceding year, but also there was a wide variety in the coverage of news. The first innovation appeared, appro- priately enough, on the opening day of school. This marked the first time an issue has ever been published on opening day, new students profited by its many articles about Deerfield and by a map of the 6 grounds, while old boysv welcomed news that was up-to-date. The next edi- tion, in an effort to get away from the customary article about summer vaca- tions, contained a two-page spread of pic- tures taken by students and faculty alike, pictures ranging from California to Can- ada and Europe. The subsequent issue was remarkable for its large headline which stretched across the top of the front pageg never before had a front page of the Scroll seen a headline wider than three columns or larger than 24-point type. A page of scenic pictures was included in the final issue before Christmas, and another one in the final issue of the winter term. The last issue before Easter was an epic one, attaining an unprecedented size of twelve pagesg this was surpassed only by a much larger issue on Spring Day, an issue which contained a special feature, showing in pictures the evolution of the Scroll. A wide diversity of material was ob- tained this year by the use of feature articles. Three columns appeared during the course of the year, Forecasts and Post- scripts, a humorous column, enjoyed a term of popularity in the fall. This gave way to The Editors, Easy-chair, a quietly humorous and satirical column which had a large following for the remainder of the year. The regular sports column On the Sidelines was received with especial en- thusiasm, while the literary column Under the Buttonball had an unusually great appeal. Also, there were interviews with such prominent rnen as Hans V. Kaltenborn, John Kieran, and Harvey D. Gibson, as well as with numerous other personages who visited the Academy at 127 one time or another. There were also articles by outside contributors, including two memorable works by the fictitious professor Axel P. Grinde. The staff of the paper was headed by editor Hunter and managing editor Zins- ser, both of whom worked hard through- out the year for the betterment of the paper. Supplementing these were Seelye, senior associate editor, and Stiles, sports editor. Aside from the corps of reporters left over from the preceding year, eleven new members were added as a result of three competitions - competitions which were surprisingly successful both in in- terest and in quality of work. The bus- iness board, headed by Stone, was a lead- ing factor in the success of the paper as a whole. The new high reached by the board in getting advertisments was an outstanding feature, particularly a series of full-page ads from T ime magazine given to very few school newspapers. 3 1 l 6 2 n-3 F-1 m '15 F-4 O 50-1 A4 U C5 M m 3 CI 'S mm QI.- U7 as ,.c:.

Fiyut GLEE CLUB REVIEW HE 1940 Glee Club was easily, in the opinion of their audiences, friends, critics and admirers, one of the finest in the history of this activity in the school. In the three upper parts particularly the voices were excellent, while the basses were up to the usual high standard. The high spot of the Club's season was a concert arranged by the National Broad- casting Company over their Red Net- work. This is the first time that a pre- paratory school glee club has been re- quested to sing over a nation-wide hook- up and consequently represents a great honor for the Glee Club. The program took place at 6:00 o'clock on April Q6 and lasted fifteen minutes. Following the concert the members of the group were entertained at the Hotel Bond in Hart- ford. After a concerted period of rehearsing under Mr. Oatley's tireless direction the club was in excellent shape to take part in the annual Interpreparatory School Sing at Bushnell Hall, Hartford, on April 20. At this, their first major appearance, the Club sang admirably, surpassing even the performances of previous Glee Clubs at this function. Represented also on the program, as in other years, were Hotch- kiss, Loomis, Taft, and Choate. After singing jointly each individual club sang a selection of its own, followed by several joint numbers at the conclusion. At this time too, the combined orchestras of the schools played several pieces, surpassing anything which they have accomplished to date at this concert. The Club had a well-rounded schedule which met with the approval of all con- cerned. Ofticially opening the season was a concert at Turners Falls before a Church group there just before the close of the winter term. This was followed by a like performance, this time at a meeting of the Brattleboro Wome-n's Club. Both occa- sions were followed by very enjoyable receptions and in addition they provided the added advantage of giving the Club much-needed experience in appearing before outside groups. The high light of the Glee Club's more social season came the week following the Hartford broadcast when the singers, plus a large group of extras, took the trip to Emma Willard. This annual dance and concert was once again the enjoyable occasion it has been in the past. The most important concert of the year, however was that on Spring Day, May 11, before an enthusiastic group of 2000 parents, friends, and alumni, and repeated at Commencement before a similar audience. At the Spring Day Concert in particular, the Club sang ex- ceptionally well and was truly a climax 1 to the day's features. It was aided during the intermissions by the beautiful trom- bone playing of Norman Simpson and the piano recitals of Mr. Solon Robinson of Smith College. The Club's Spring Day repertoire, more varied and difficult than usual, is worthy of mention. The opening number, Grieg's choral salutation, Brothers, Sing on, was followed by Brahms' celebrated Wlegenlied. A famous piece of church music, Arcadelt's Ave Maria, one of the Glee Club's most delicate and charming songs, concluded the first part of the program. Others which proved popular were the English hunting folk-song, John Peel, a short Finnish piece Pm flom- ing Home, and the final number, Cesar Franck's powerful Psalm 150. Two songs in a lighter vein which have drawn ap- plause for many years were the Negro spiritual Keep in the M 'lddle of the Road and the famous sea chantey, Old Elan, Noah.

Sawin BAND REVIEW UILT around a nucleus of twenty returning men which was supple- mented by a talented group of new play- ers, the Band, although not as large as last year's group, enjoyed a highly suc- cessful year. During the fall term, the Band played and marched at all the home football games, and accompanied the team to Choate and Williston. Led by Drum Major Garret, the field maneuvers of the Band were interesting and well executed. In the winter term the Band played at the Basketball games, and in addition made a special trip to the Massachusetts State Basketball Tournament, where it played before an audience of five thou- sand. Concerts on Spring Day and at Commencement were part of the spring program. The Band also made a trip to South Deerheld, where it led the Memori- al Day parade. Band BU, recently organized for the benefit of those boys desiring to learn to play any sort of band instrument, proved more successful this year than ever before, and much new talent was discovered in this group. Although not as large as last year's Band Bn, the thirty players, under the careful instruction of Mr. Schuler, developed into good material for next year's Band. An exceptionally fine trombone and clarinet section lent volume and harmony to the Band, and directed by Mr. Schuler, a well-rounded group was produced. Norman Simpson was elected Band Captain, and he led the players very capably. The Band is very fortunate in having such a fine director as Mr. Schuler, whose untiring effort and careful instruction were the governing factor of its rapid development. Mr. Schuler was ably assisted by the faculty advisor, Mr. McKenney.

Ziegler Mr. J. Sanford Doughty DEBAT ING REVIEW T can be truthfully said that 1940 has been the most successful year in Deer- field debating history. Ever since its foundation here in 1926, this activity has gained in interest and importance, and this season was an exceptional climax to a fine record. Only two experienced men returned at the beginning of the year, President Wozencraft and Secretary Weathers, but the forces were rapidly augmented by the rise of many capable men from the Forum. Seelye, Bass, Brink, Zinsser, and Stack Were particularly effective. The campaign opened with a home- and-home debate against Hotchkiss on Hitler's wisdom in forming the Russo- German pact. Deerfield was unusually adept in its use of the Oregon system, and won unanimous decisions on both sides of the question. The outstanding feature was the skillful cross-questioning by Weathers, which carried the day at Hotchkiss. The Choate debate marked another double victory for Deerfield. On the question, Resolved: That Italy should join the Allies,', the Green and White again took the honors. In this discussion Wozencraftls rebuttal was par- ticularly fluent and effective. The system used here and in frequent other debates was a combination of the Oxford and Oregon forms, combining the regular speeches of the former with cross-ques- tioning of each speaker by the members of the opposing team. In the next debate Deerfield's fortunes took a turn for the Worse when inexperi- enced teams lost to a highly polished Taft aggregation. In defeat, however, Fay and Zinsser demonstrated real ability. The question, Resolved: That the University of Chicago was Wise in dropping inter- collegiate football,', was a difficult one, and a no-coaching agreement made it harder for those being initiated into inter- scholastic debating. A particularly successful innovation was the two-day trip arranged for the first time in the Council's history. Bass, Weathers, and Wozencraft, with Barbour as alternate, debated the affirmative of the question of European confederation at Andover and Roxbury Latin on suc- cessive nights. Especially gratifying was the victory over Andover, though Rox- bury was awarded a very close decision the following afternoon. For the third time in the concluding debate, against Loomis, Deerfield swept both sides of the question in a major debate. Resolved: That America should admit political refugees above the present quotaf' was the resolution. For the affirmative, Bass was exceptionally logical and effective, while Stackfs rebuttal for the negative was cogent and resourceful. Many often overlook the importance of Deerfield's other debating organization, the Forum. Twelve of its members were advanced to the Senior Council, and un- der President Hunter and Secretary Con- nally trial debates were held in which over thirty boys participated. Outside debates with Wilbraham and Mount Hermon gave valuable experience to twelve boys. An addition this year which should prove worth while was the institu- tion of a debate between the two sopho- more English classes for membership in the Forum. This has co-ordinated the de- bating organization so that talented underclassmen have an opportunity to profit by early experience. The Forum also presented three speakers to the stu- dent body. Vernon Nash, an exponent of Union Now, spoke before the school, as did Mr. Pearson, the noted Washington correspondent, and David Morton, the well-known poet. Over 25 boys participated in inter- scholastic debates, and several were out- standing. Secretary Weathers was par- ticularly adept at witty and convincing presentations. President Wozencraft was a fine leader and an able rebuttalist. George Bass was exceptionally logical, while Stack excelled. Back Row: Bass, G.: Wheeler, Greene, Stack, Affleck, Strecker, Walker Front Row: Rand, Barbour, King, Zinsser, Weathers, E., Wozencraft, Close, Sinclair, Fay CUM LAUDE URING the year 1939-40 sixteen boys were elected to the Deerield chapter of the Cum Laude Society. These additions increased the total membership of the Chapter, which was founded seven years ago, to one hundred and thirty-six. Of the Class of 1940, three members were elected in the spring of 1939- Eliot Weathers, Frank Wozencraft, and William Zinsser. Weathers was elected president of the Society for this year, and Zinsser secretary. In the winter of 1939 four more mem- bers were added. Ian Barbour, Ralph Close, Richard King, and John Sinclair were those chosen. Initiations for these members were held shortly afterward, Short talks were given bylthe president and secretary, followed by the main ad- dress by Mr. Sheehan of the faculty. The Hnal drawing was made on April 25 of this year, at which time five seniors and four juniors were taken on, from the Class of 1940, James Affleck, George Bass, Edward Greene, Stephen Stack, and Henry Streckerg from the Class of 1941, Peter Fay, George Rand, George Walker, and Henry Wheeler. Initiations for this group were held on May 18, a day on which the Deerfield chapter played host to society representatives from the district. Roderic Davison, co-founder of the Deerield chapter, was the principal speaker.

Directed as usual by Mr. Jones, the play was a success from every standpoint. Outstanding performances were turned in by Lars Potter, as the financially embarrassed producer, Gordon Miller, and Bob Chamberlain as the un- perturbed director, Binion. Mac Farrellls Brooklyn twang made hilarious his por- trayal of F aker Englund, and Ted Pratt convincingly blustered through the play as the oflicious Mr. Wagner. Bob Heath did a good job in the role of the baffled hotel manager, Joe Gribble, as did Parker Keating, who portrayed the meek and unpretentious Mr. Jenkins. Jack Sinclair played the part of naive Leo Davis, and opposite him Ken Perry assumed the role of the heroine, Hilda Manney. Others in the large cast were Dave Wil- liams, as Miller's fiancee, Jeff Avirett as the timid collecting agent, and Talcott Seelye, who portrayed with considerable skill the Russian Waiter, Sasha. Bourne Upham played Senator Blake, and Jim Soper brought down the house as the bank messenger. Much credit for the suc- cess ofthe play is due to Bill Rose and his stage crew and to John Koehne and Arthur Clarke, who managed properties and lights, respectively. l Back Row: Norton, Rogers, N.g Geary, W., Miller, Bass, R., Bayles, Stone, D.g Storrs Third Row: Peck, Carrott, Christy, Wheeler, Sayce, Jones, L., Ziegler, G., Starzenski, Stokes Second Row: Bennett, Chafee, Hugus, Affleck, McClellan, Clarke, A.g Stack, Wilson, S., Tuttle, Billings, Stanton, Stone, J.

Mr. West's appeal was answered well by the strong turnout of fifty-five boys to aid President Flynt. The club was able to find only one competitor, Loomis, to which it dropped one match and tied the other QM-QV, Later, in one of the most interesting events of the season, a faculty team play- ing with much skill and even more en- thusiasm turned back the Chess Team composed of fourteen boys, 8-6. Out- standing for the faculty were Mrs. Wick- enden who downed Steve Stack, and Mr. Wickenden, a definite amateur, who con- quered John Patrick, an old hand, in three moves. The high light of the season was the return to Deerfield of Mr. Reinfeld, noted chess authority and player. Playing eighteen boys at a time he won, during the afternoon, fifty matches, tied one, and lost one to Stewart Tuttle. In addition, playing Without seeing the board, he defeated Mr. West and Mr. Oatley. Mr. West, Who Was invaluable to the team, stated that as many young chess enthusiasts Would be returning next year under the leadership of Werner Catchings, the outlook for 1941 was very bright. Those who were outstanding as players this year were Zeigler, Avirett, Flynt, Stiles, and Gingras.

The most popular activity of the club was the series of Saturday Night Con- certs by Toscanini and the NBC Sym- phony Orchestra, which were attended regularly by the Music Club members at the Boydens' home. Mrs. Boyden's gen- erosity lent much to these weekly gather- ings, making them popular with everyone. From the money received during the year, the Music Club added many records to the large collection describing the his- tory of Music from the Middle Ages to the present, which was given by the Carnegie Corporation several years ago. The pur- chase of ten albums of classical music brought the Music Club's collection to almost Hfteen hundred records. Among its many activities, the Music Club was privileged to have a motion pic- ture of The Life and Loves of Beet- hoven, a picture describing the life and musical works of this great artist. The Deerheld Music Club closed its enjoyable year of music appreciation, having brought its record collection nearly to completion, by naming John Lothrop President-elect for next year. 1 K Back Row: Norton, Bayles, Sisson, Greene, E., Weaver, Kelsey, Shepard, Lincoln Front Row: Patrick, Tracy, AHileck, Green, K.g Koehne, J., Edwards, H.g Dodge, D. STAMP CLUB DHERING strictly to the rigid constitution established last year, the 1940 Stamp Club enthusiastically continued its activities under Presi- dent Vhamberlain. Strict rules for at- tendance and active participation were enforced, narrowing the club to an en- thusiastic group of collectors. Meetings were held Sunday nights in either the home of the faculty advisor or in the school building, at which the election of new members, discussions, and plans for exhibits were brought up. These were capably handled by the President and Secretary. Early in the year, Kimball Green was elected Secretary, and he capably handled all transactions. Due chiefly to the definite specialization in types of stamps by the members of the club, not much trading was done, but more emphasis was put on the annual Spring Day exhibit. The high light of the Stamp club's sea- son was the interesting and carefully planned Spring Day exhibit. Under the direction of Mr. Hagerman, who was very helpful not only in the planning of this exhibition, but also in the other club ac- tivities, a varied and educational display was put forth. Groups of stamps picturing the sovereigns of foreign countries and their descent were shown, as well as dis- plays of stamps depicting the rise of transportation in this country. As has been the custom, a prize was awarded for the most cleverly conceived display, judged on the basis of originality and neatness. Operating under this new constitution, and assisted by the faculty advisor, Mr. Hagerman, the Stamp Club completed a very interesting year.

Organized in January 1939, the Press Club this year completed its first full year of service, submitting from five to twelve articles a week. These articles cover all varsity sports and outstanding events connected with the school. Since a specialized style of Writing is required, only those showing exceptional ability were elected. This small select group is confronted with the job of supplying thorough and concise information to papers in Greenfield, Springfield, and Boston, and major write- ups to the New York papers. High lights of the Club's features were ten-inch articles in the metropolitan newspapers on the Choate and Loomis football games of the past two years, a feature in Springfield and New York papers on Lacrosse last year, and Com- mencement write-ups for local papers. With the earnings from these articles banquets were held for the board each year in recognition of the work of the members. The original board consisted of five individuals who were the survivers of an arduous competition. These members are Close, Morgan, Peck, Weathers, and Zinsser. Zinsser, especially, should be cited for his untiring work as feature sports editor. With the graduation of these five, the future board will continue with Forbes, Garland, Kane and Christy. Mr. McCollum, the organizer and chief consultant of the club, is responsible for this able group. Too much praise cannot be given to him for his assistance. 1 Back Row: Edwards, H., Simpson, R.g Ashley, Rushmore, Weeks, Burpee, Simpson, N., Saunders, Franklin Front Row: Goodeve, Fuller, Ayer, F.g Cugell, MacRae, G. DANCE ORCHESTRA HE Dance Orchestra, started by Brandon Caswell '38 in 1935, has existed as an unofficial organization for a number of years, practicing Sunday afternoons, and appearing at various school gatherings. This year,s organiza- tion, comprising fifteen players, was beyond all doubt far superior to any of the groups of the preceding years. The selection of pieces and their execution were uniformly good, while the orchestra as a whole was better balanced. Although they made only three public appearances, the fall and winter banquets and at the Dramatic Club's presentation of Room Service, the versatility and qual- ity of the band won the admiration of even the most critical fan. This Deerfield organization which is run completely by the students was under the extremely capable co-leadership of Norm Simpson and Bill Saunders. The main reason for the exellence of the band may be attributed to the fact that all but three members have played as a unit for two years. The brass section consisted of: sax- ophonists, Ayer, Cugell, Fuller and Goodeveg trumpeters, Ashley and Rush- more: trombonists, Norm Simpson, Bur- pee and Bob Simpson. The rhythm divi- sion comprised Bill Saunders at the piano, Edwards on the guitar, Weeks, bass, and Franklin and Bridgewater, drums. Gor- don MacRae sang well as the orchestra's vocalist.

VARSITY FOOT BALL REVIEW LTHOUGH the varsity eleven pre- sented a satisfactory record, the success or failure of the season does not rest on the number of points rolled up against the opposition or the number of games won. From this standpoint the season,s record of two wins and two ties in eight games can not be called an un- qualified success. However, the varsity eleven developed amazingly, and after the final game was a different machine from the one which led off against Paw- ling. This team will be remembered for many outstanding stars, brightest of which were two newcomers, Bill Pescosolido and John Mcmnahan. Pescosolido's running was magnificent, while Mrinahan shone as the greatest defensive end Deerfield has ever seen. Augmenting these two were Ed Eagan, playing aggressive, steady ball throughout the season at tackle, and Captain Bob O'Connor, a fine leader and 15-L player in every game. Dick Neville, who jumped straight from Mr. Perrin's tutel- age to the varsity in one year, performed nobly at guardg Bill Sadowski's passing and kicking were invaluable, especially when he kicked out of danger time and again against Choateg and Johnny St. John ably filled the thankless post of blocking back. The team would have won a great many more of the games if it had had some real scoring punch. When within the twenty- yard marker, the team's every advance seemed to peter out, and though Deerield made more first downs than her opponents and outplayed them in every department, the Green and White never really pre- sented a consistent scoring threat. The varsity dropped their opener to Pawling by the narrow margin of 2-0, an effective third-period drive cut short by a fumble on the opponents 8-yard line. On October 14, Deerfield thrilled its rooters by carrying an early 7-0 lead into the last quarter, only to be finally over- powered, 14-7, by Cushing, the strongest team in the valley league, in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. However, the improvement shown over the previous games was unbelievable, and, down at Wallingford a week later, it was a great moment for the student body when Bill Pescosolido took a Choate punt on his 10-yard stripe and scampered 90 yards for a touchdown. Throughout the rest of the game the team played mag- nifdcent defensive ball, giving the home team one touchdown, but holding on to a 6-6 tie score. On October 28, Deerfield was host to Taft. Monahan, who seemed to specialize in blocking kicks, bored in the visitor's line and blocked one so completely that the ball bounded 15 yards behind the end zone, giving Deerfield two points and the first victory for the Green and White. Unfortunately, at Williston the team had bad luck, losing two touchdowns nullified by offsides, and a greatly under- 155 rated Williston aggregation capitalized to score two touchdowns and win by a 12-7 margin. As a climax to a gala day, the Deerfield and Loomis varsities battled out a IQ-12 tie, Bill Pescosolido repeated his spectac- ular run at Choate by taking a punt on his 20-yard line to make the first score. Bill Sadowski produced the next touch- down with a beautiful run preceded by a brilliant passing attack. Loomis scored again in the third, but missed the point when Hardy blocked the kick. The second victory was a well-earned triumph over a strong Governor Dummer club. For the first time during the season, The Green and White exhibited a contin- uously smooth-working attack, on the ground and through the air, to outgain its opponents and take this game, 7-6. In the final game, however, Deerfield lost, IQ-6, to Stockbridge, though outgaining the opponents in actual yardage. From a tie score at the half Stockbridge took the lead on a fumble in the third, and success- fully foiled all Deerfield bids. l l Back Row: Menzel, Vail, H., Weitzel, Lee, Upham, Weathers, B.

JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL LAYING a difficult five-game sched- ule Mr. Sullivan's and Mr. Cook's football team, although lacking in general football knowledge at the beginning of the season, by sheer drive and spirit made up for this deficiency and won three of their five games. The Green and White put on an excel- lent exhibition against Athol, their first game, but were nosed out by the close score of 6-0. Against T urners Falls in their next game the Jayvees won 6-0, Yazwinski scoring the lone tally and Hill starring in the backfield. The Massachusetts State Freshmen offered little resistance, Keegan scoring twice with Maynard and Chase doing fine work to win 192-0. Reaching their peak on Loomis Day the Jayvees won 25-0. Chase scored 18 out of the Q5 points and Yazwinski took the ball over for the remaining score. Mount Hermon won the last game, 19-7. In addition to the scorers, the team had many capable players. At ends were Lindsay, Maynard, and Anthony. Out- standing in the other line positions were Howe, Scarborough, Costello, and Mc- Cain. The backfield was well coordinated and powerful with Captain Yazwinski. Keegan, Hill and Chase. Besides these players there were many others, who while not starring, were nevertheless capable players and who improved considerably through the sea- son. As material for next yearis varsity they should provide excellent replace- ments for those graduating this year. Particular credit for the team's improve- ment and record should go to the two coaches.

Row: Geary, W., Wright, Macltae, G., Potter, Morrison, Gibson, Higgins THIRD FOOTBALL ITH the elimination of the Second f Football team and the elevation of the All-Leagues to fill the gap, it became necessary to cut the squad into a lighter and less-experienced contingent, namely the Third Team. Under the able tutelage of Mr. Wickenden, the team developed into a smooth-running aggregation, im- proving noticeably as the season pro- gressed. In the opening encounter against the South Deerfield Seconds the team lost, 18-7, in spite of Captain Potter's score. The second game saw a heavier and older Stockbridge team come out on the large end of a Q5-7 score. The only victory of the season came as a consequence of a fumble recovered by Morse and an effec- tive passing attack, which left the 157 Northampton sophomores behind, 14-6. The remaining games were a series of defeats, Deerfield succumbing to teams of definitely better calibre. The Greenfield Seconds easily overcame the Thirds, by a score of 32-0, while Mt. Hermon, also won, 19-0. Despite Geary's blocking, Newbury's pass-receiving, and Koehne's defensive work. The season ended in a 12-7 defeat at the hands of Stockbridge again. Throughout the season several players who were Captain Potter, Morrison, MacRae were all effective blockers in the backheld, while Newbury, Koehne, and Higgins excellently filled their positions in the line. Newbury in particular shone at end. there were outstanding.

Mr. Bohrer and Mr. Tisdale, assistant coaches, quickly and efficiently organized the Juniors for their first game with Kim- ball Union. Soon after the start of the second period the Deerfield contingent marched the Whole length of the field for the only touchdown of the afternoon. The final score of 6-0 was the closest of the season. The Huntington High School pre- sented the next opposition, but because they were weakened by the loss of several important players, the Juniors easily triumphed by the score of 41-0. In the second period of the Vermont game Peck got away for a touchdown, and Wilkie and Hahn soon tallied again to bring the final total to 19-0. Next was the Suffield game which turned out to be a great fumbling match. Bill Ashley ex- celled in this contest with his beautiful running, and materially added to the Count for the Juniors of 26-0. The high point ofthe season came onthe 11th of November when the unscathed Perrinrnen tackled the Loomis 150's and emerged with a 14-0 victory. Back on their own one-yard line after the second play, the Green and White contingent with the aid of Ashley's magic toe man- aged to work from danger into scoring territory. Next, on an opening drive, the Perrinmen scored on Williston, and though the invaders infiicted the first score of the season against the Juniors, won 24-6. Not a single back scored in the Mount Hermon contest as the Perrinmen chalked up their final victory to the tune of 38-6. Time after time Bob Jordan rifled bullet-like passes to Gutterson who easily stepped over for three touchdowns. Steele Cameron, center, also scored as he ran back an intercepted pass 66 yards. In winning three games, losing two, tying one, the Second Juniors of 1939 presented a very creditable record. The seasorfs opener against the Amherst High School yearlings resulted in the one and only tie. In this game the strength of the line was shown by the sterling work of the guards Proctor and Utter, plus the tackles O,Brien and Blackford. Although the next two contests were well played, the Deerfield contingent succumbed to strong Turners Falls and Athol teams. By a strong come-back the Second Juniors were able to 'win their remaining games. Pomfret was defeated by a score of 13-7, mainly by a brilliant series of plays that resulted in the tallying of Gordon, and the throwing of a beautiful pass from Banning to Newell. The last two games against Holyoke and Amherst were defin- itely Deerheld victories by scores of Q0-0, and 13-0, respectively. Credit is certainly due to Mr. McCollum who coached this highly successful season. SECOND JUNIOR FOOTBALL Html: Razr: Johnson, Brace, Buehner, Garland, Starkweather.

Sparked by the baekiield Work of Christy, Marks, McGarrah, and Yazwinski, and rein- forced by the line play of Pounds, Toll, Batchelor and Hollister, the Green and White eleven dominated the play during most of their games. The Lightweights opened their season by dropping a 7-0 encounter to a heavier Turners Falls squad. Deerfield then came back to snatch a 13-0 win from Kimball Union, as Captain Edwards tallied twice, followed by a 7-0 victory over Cheshire. Willistcill bowed next before the Light- weights by the narrow margin of 7-6, as Yazwinski scored on a pass from Ed- wards. The final game with Arms Acad- emy was won, 6-0, on Yazwinskiis score. The Second Lightweights, under the direction of Mr. Simmons, played a four-game schedule, which resulted in one victory and three defeats. Opening the season, the team lost to the Amherst High Freshmen by a score of 7-2. The Green and White then downed a Vermont Academy squad, 6-0, but was defeated, 13-0, in a return game. Closing their sea- son against Mount Hermon, the squad was outscored, 6-0. Outstanding for the Second Lightweight were Captain Angell, Sisson, Leggat, and Kenyon.

In their first game of the season, the Midgets scored an easy victory over Williston, winning, largely due to the running and passing of Captain Pruden, by a score of 19-0. But then, for the first time in four years, the Midgets were de- feated, Cheshire downing them, 6-0. This game was followed by a 7-0 victory for Holyoke, a game in which the squad, sparked by the defensive work of Cleve- land, Wells, and Crolius, showed its best teamwork of the season. Deerfield then rallied and snatched a 34-0 win from Suffield, but was over- whelmed again in a return game with Cheshire by the surprising score of Q6-7. With only two minutes of playing time remaining in the Eaglebrook game, Deer- field staged a rally, and in three plays brought the ball from their own 35-yard line to the opponents, three. But time ran out and the game ended, Q0-14, in Eagle- brook's favor. In the final game of the season, the Midgets downed Williston, 6-0, in a return match at Easthampton. Throughout the season, the quarter- backing of Wells and the blocking of Cleveland and Lunt remained steady and effective. Calder developed into a de- pendable center, as did Crolius, who was also very useful as a utility man. 4. M 'YV .

The Deer- field Varsity, behind the inspiring leader- ship and goal play of Captain Tom Hoover, swept all before them, outplaying their opponents in every way and emerg- ing in late November undefeated, and practically unscored on through nine diflicult games. The usual starting line-up found Jeff Avirett and Tom Elkinton filling the right and left Wing positions respectively. Di- minutive Jeff gave promise of developing into an outstanding wing next season and his bewildering dribble and bull,s-eye center proved invaluable, while Elkinton, second in his family to play on a Deerfield varsity, exhibited a brand of soccer which was a constant menace to the enemy. Mark Keith, who was one of the teamls high scorers and a brilliant player, was a valuable rnan at center. Roger Goodeve, possessor of the hardest shot on the team and a constant offensive threat, played at one inside post, while Merry Stiles, at the other, had the aggressiveness and stamina which often sparked a scoring surge. Tom Hoover, whose captaincy as a Junior was inaugurated by an undefeated season, played inspiring soccer, as the scoring column shows. Allowing but two well-earned goals all season, his play both as captain and goalie was consistently outstanding. Sandy Simmons, was one of the few sophomores ever to make the varsity. Bob Carlisle, making the long jump from the Juniors, displayed good headwork throughout the season, and Bob Chamberlain,s powerful foot often turned scoring threats away from the Deerfield net. When all is said and done, however, what will be really long remembered in the annals of Deerfield soccer is the 1939 halfback line, composed of Seelye at center and Campbell at one wing, with Close and Orr alternating at the other. Hard driving, hard shooting, skillful and steady on the defense, this quartet played a consistently brilliant game, setting up many goals and keeping the pressure on the opposing defense for the full sixty minutes of every game. The newcomer to this memorable group was Bill Orr, who quickly rose to Varsity ranks and proved his worth throughout the season. Camp- bellis aggressive game broke up many an enemy's scoring drive, while Wally Closeis tricky ball-handling was invaluable in getting the ball up into scoring territory. But Talcott Seelye, this year's winner of the Holbrook Ellis cup, was unquestion- ably the outstanding player on the team in the eyes not only of his teammates and coaches but also of his opponents. He possessed a remarkably sure foot, scoring six out of seven possible penalty shots, including the important goal which gained the 2-1 victory over Andover for Deerfield. The 1939 season could not have been the success it was, had it not been for the prolixity of substitutes who backed up the Hrst eleven. The second halfback line of Saunders, Flynt, and either of the two extras from the first quartet, though shaded by the remarkable brilliance of the first string, nevertheless did a fine job of supporting. The reserve linemen, Bensen, Ken Williams, and Christy Bell played fine soccer when called upon. i Haclr Row: Mr. Boyden, Ayer, F.: Carter, Allen, A., Jones, F., Spelman, Volkmann, Wozencraft, F4 Franklin.

Row: Heidner, Perry, Affleck, Flynt, McWilliams, Donnelley, Morgan, A.g Zimmerli, Connally JUNIOR VARSITY SOCCER URING the past five years the Junior Varsity Soccer team has lost only one game. Much credit for this re- markable record should go to the coach, Mr. Bartlett Boyden, who has each sea- son fashioned a team from relatively unpromising material. This year his team ranked with the best, winning seven and tying one game, led by Captain Norman McWilliams in the goal. In the opening game on Friday, October 6th, against the Massachusetts State 2nd team the Jayvees lost their 2-1 lead, Con- nally and Hunter having scored early in the game, just before the final whistle and although two overtime periods were played neither team could break the tie. Their next game against a team from Smith Academy proved to be easier, for the Junior Varsity took it in their stride by downing the opponents, 4-0. Against the Choate Qnds on October 21st the Jayvees were victorious al- though somewhat lacking in drive and spirit. Again Jones scored twice, the only points of the game, while Choate could not puncture the Green and White de- fense due to fine work on the part of Flynt in the halfback line and of Allen, a new recruit, at left fullback. Continuing on October 26 against the Amherst Fresh- men reserves, Perry scored once to defeat the yearlings in a close game. Within the next week the Jayvees improved tre- mendously and on November 1st they traveled up to Kimball Union to play their varsity. Although Deerfield did not begin to function until the third quarter, a renewed attack overwhelmed the home team, 7-3, while Jones was the outstanding man on the field with two goals to his credit. Journeying down to Williston for their next game three days later, the Junior Varsity built up an attack in the second period which netted two goals, those of Donnelly at the center-forward position. The defensive work of Volkmann and Affleck, and McWilliams in the goal lim- ited the Williston Qnds to one goal, the Hnal reckoning being Q-1 for the visitors. The Loomis Qnd team were met by a well- coordinated Jayvee team who came out victorious by the score of 2-0 on the goals of Jones and Zimmerli. Both these players again scored in the Jayvees' last game, as did Donnelly, to defeat a scrappy and determined Mount Hermon team on November 16 by the close score of 3-2. Throughout the season Donnelly was consistently the best player in the line, . , f f having much spirit and reserve energy. The rest of the line positions were held down by Jones, Perry, and Wozencraft. The halfback line was the team's pow- erhouse with Aflzleck, Volkmann, Dog- get, and Flynt alternating at the three posts. At fullbacks Mr. Boyden used Spelman and Allen and in the goal was Captain McWilliams, a new man at the job but a capable filler of one of the most difficult positions in the game. Though possessing a powerful offense, of a necessity, since the team piled up a total of twenty-three points in its season, equalling the varsity, the team's greatest strength was defensively in the halfback line. The team as a whole left nothing to be desired from the standpoint of both skill and spirit. It was particularly for- tunate in its managing and coaching staff. Mr. Bartlett Boyden, especially, showed his skill in producing a smooth- working unit in spite of constant upsets due to promotions to the varsity, with the result that a record comparable to the varsityfs in all respects was compiled during the year. I Back Row: Sheldon, hlerriam, Kane, Hollaman, Carey, Sayce, Catchings, Spicer, Davis, R., Mr. Sheehan Front R011-: Simpson, N., Hyde, E., Fuller, Allen, F., Hunter, A., Barbour, Maxwell, Crary, Daniels ALL - LEAGUE SOCCER N spite of inexperience the 1939 All- League Soccer Team was able to com- pile a satisfactory record for the season. Deerfield inaugurated their season well, but as the fall progressed the absence of strong players was sorely felt. At their full strength for the early games, the Leagues outplayed a scrappy State Freshman team, and on a fourth- period goal by Ted Carter gained a well- deserved Q-1 victory, while on the follow- ing week they augmented their winning streak by shutting out an inexperienced Williston eleven, Q-0. However, with an attack weakened by promotion, Deerfield had difficulty hold- ing Lebanon's powerful forces to a 0-0 tie D in overtime, and later in a second en- counter, on the opponents' field suc- cumbed to the same team, 2-0. After some drastic changes in the line- up, the Green and White rallied to over- come Williston again, Q-1. Nevertheless, in spite of Captain Andy Hunter's fine net play they lost to Mount Hermon and the season ended with a record of three wins, three defeats, and one tie. The bright spot of the fall was the emergence of a few outstanding players who displayed the kind of ball which should prove of value to next year's varsity and jayvee squads. Captain Hun- ter played adrnirablyg Maxwell and Dan- iels were particularly able in the line: while Sheldon and Fuller proved bul- warks on a somewhat shaky defense. Back Row: Mr. Jones, Rogers, RJ Waddell, Salvatore, Sawin, Clark, J. G., King, S.g Stebbins F ront Row: Grant, Selden, Forbes, Groves, Keating, Rossbach, Preble, Pease, Zinsser RESERVE SOCCER HIS year marks the inauguration of a new team into Deerfield's soccer sys- tem, namely the Reserves. Made up of candidates for the All-Leagues and Junior Varsity who proved too inexperienced, Mr. Jones, aggregation has set a precedent which will long be envied but seldom achieved. Out of a four-game schedule this nucleus remained untied, undefeated, and unscored-upon, a tribute to the able leadership and fighting spirit shown by coaches and players. Starting off With an inspiring victory, the Reserves completely out-played a corresponding team from Williston. Largely responsible for the winning three goals piled up were Zinsser and Forbes. In a return match Zinsser again proved his ability by scoring the lone goal of the game. This feat was repeated in the next encounter, Suffield being the victim in this instance. A fitting conclusion to a perfect season was Deerfield's 3-0 win over Mt. I-Iermon. Responsible for the three goals Were Rogers, tallying on a hard shot from right wing, Rossbach, scoring on a free kick, and Boyden, con- verting also from the wing. In recognizing outstanding perform- ances it would be only fair to mention every one of the charter members. These include linemen Boyden, Merriam, Pease, Rogers, Sayce, Waddell, and Zinsserg halfbacks Grant, Preble, Rossbach, and Smith, W.g fullbacks Groves, King, and Sawin, with Keating in the goal. l SENIOR SOCCER Back Row: Coe, VVeathers, B.

Though the formation of a fourth major team from the cream of the Juniors and Seniors caused a shake-up in the starting line-ups, the relative strength of the teams remained unchanged. The first encounter was a raggedly fought battle in which the Seniors swept through the hapless Juniors and won, 4-Q. In the second game the Juniors bore down hard, and, in spite of the stellar game played by Zinsser, who tal- lied twice, and Sayce, who made the other Senior score, took the decision, 4-3, largely on Selden's scores. With the series tied at one-all both teams were determined to win the next game, but in spite of two overtimes the final count was Q-2. Sayce starred for the seniors, scoring the second goal by heading a high pass into the corner of the net. The Juniors played heads-up soccer in the next meet- ing, holding the Seniors scoreless while they hammered home two well-earned goals. Trailing by a game, the Seniors became aroused in the fifth tussle and, tied up the series with a Q-I win. Regin played a steady, effective brand of soccer for the Seniors, and Fay starred for the losing eleven. The Seniors, swept on by the momentum gained in the pre- vious encounter again took the Juniors in the sixth game, Q-1. Fortified by a lead of one game in the series, and needing only one more victory to clinch the title, the Seniors entered into the seventh game. The first half was theirs, but the Juniors came back strong in the second and barely before the final whistle Jack lvozencraft scored the winning goal. The eighth battle was fast and furious, with Regin scoring for the Seniors and Belknap for the Juniors. Overtimes were played, but the tie could not be broken, and the series ended in a deadlock. Gutside games for the two teams were limited, as the newly-formed Reserves took their places in schedules with other schools. The Seniors played a game with VVilliston and came out on the long end of a 1-0 score. The Juniors beat hit. Hermon twice, both times by a 2-1 count. It is to be regretted that more games could not be scheduled, for both teams showed themselves well against outside opposition. However, the traditional se- ries left little to be desired from the standpoint of excitement and interest on the part of all concerned, which was further stimulated by the closeness of the games. Several players distinguished them- selves on both teams' line-ups. For the Seniors, Boynton and Stone formed an effective defense, Stone in particular handling his goal assignment excellently. Captain Moore, at either halfback or inside positions, and Regin sparked the offense. Captain Fay, Dodge, and VVozen- craft were able forwards for the Juniors, with Little and Hardee playing well in the halfback line. The teams were efliciently handled by Mr. Miller, and lNIr. McKen- ney and Mr. Colgate. iw JUNIOR SOCCER Back Row: lNIr. Colgate, Alexander, E.g Angell, lVI.g Dewey, Little, Grif'l'in, Scott, llr.

Strong defensive play combined with a fast-moving attack to produce 499 points against 414 for the opposition. It is not often that a basketball team is fortunate enough to have a nucleus of four members returning from such an out- standing quintet as that of 1939. Bob O'Connor, Bill Sadowski, Captain Don Lindsay and Talcott Seelye all were hold- overs from last year. In a game depend- ing so much upon timing and teamwork this was especially advantageous. The team was materially aided, too, by two new additions, hlonahan and Bridge- water. O'Conuor, at center, was excellent de- fensively and set up many baskets. His competitive spirit and knowledge of the game made him a real asset. Sadowski, who had one of the best shots on the team, was a consistent threat from any place on the floor, ranking second in scoring. Seelye, on defense, was an im- passable bulwark. Even when called upon to halt alone an attack by three men, he Was generally successful. Captain Lindsay, at the other guard position, was also an important cog in the line-up. His capable leadership was important in welding the quintet into one unit, and his brilliant shots frequently provided the margin of victory. Monahan was high scorer for the season with 163 points, and was a vital factor in the team's success. He was particularly eHective under the opponent's basket, converting many dif- ficult rebounds. Bridgewater played very capably at guard, and was an exceptional floor worker. On several occasions his substitution into the line-up provided the necessary spark that enabled Deerfield to pull ahead of the opposing team. The varsity started off the season with a victory over Stockbridge, 32-26, but this was followed by a loss in an afternoon game to Wilbraham, 30-28. Spurred on by this, however, the team came back to win their next five games. The first con- test with Suflield, was a brilliant one. After an even Hrst half, the Green and VVhite pulled away to win, 45-37, Mona- han scoring twenty points. Against Wil- liston the varsity maintained this high standard of performance to win, 32-26. The next encounter, with Governor Dummer, promised to be very close, as the Red and Gray had just conquered Andover. Deerfield again proved its excellence, however and handily won a 46-17 victory. The team followed this with a 40-27 victory over Mount Hermon. Supposed to have one of the best teams in the valley, the Amherst freshmen took an early 7-1 lead, but Deerfield put on a sustained drive to lead at half-time, 16-14. After an even third period Amherst forged ahead at 25-24, but Deerfield tied the score at 26-26, and with seconds left to play, Seelye and Bridgewater scored in quick succession to win, 30-26. After this encounter there was a natural letdown, when a Suflield team previously beaten conquered the Varsity, 37-28. Against Williston the next Satur- day the Green and White had not recov- ered top form. In spite of a third-period spurt which put them in the lead, the team lost, 38-35. With Choate, however, they regained their earlier form to tri- umph, 40-30, Sadowski with 14 points and Monahan with 15 leading the scoring, Against Vermont Academy the quintet relapsed again, and succumbed before the fast-breaking, tricky offense of the Ver- monters, 45-36. Recovering from its slump, Deerfield conquered Cushing, 28- 21. O,Connor was high scorer, with Bridgewater also playing well. The Green and White next overcame Loomis, 35-30, as Captain Lindsay sparked the offense with 14 points and Seelye again displayed his unusual defensive ability. The team then closed an extremely successful season by inundating Cushing in a return game, 44-24. Captain Lindsay once more led the scoring with 13 points, while Sadowski had 12 and Monahan 11. I i Back Row: Gutterson, Averill, Hoover, Hill, Dudensing Front Row: Ford, Hardy, Keith, Hunter, R.g Orr, Stiles, Weaver SECOND BASKETBALL UPPLANTING the old All-Leagues, the Seconds had ten outside games, winning three and losi11g seven. However, this cannot give a clear picture of their season, for they outscored their opponents, 340-332. It is not often that a team can put two capable combinations on the floor, but that was frequently the policy of the Seconds. One unit consisted of Keith, Averill, Stiles, Hunter, Hoover, the other of Orr, Ford, Hill, R., Weaver, Hardy, K., and Pescosolido. The Seconds started the season with a victory over the Wilbraham Second Team, 29-21. This was followed by a streak of hard luck in which they lost four games, all margins never exceeding four points. The Williston Seconds noscd them out, 31-29, and this was followed by a 28- 24 defeat by the Mourit Hermon Second team. In the next game, against Northampton, the Deerfield team was barely outpointed, 30-29. Although beat- en, 36-34, by Sacred Heart in the next game the Seconds put up splendid opposi- tion. The following contest, with the Greenfield Seconds, saw Deerfield chalk up its second victory, 31-24. However, again the Seconds were overcome, this time by Williston to the tune of 29-26, and after conquering Northampton by the score of 51-40, they received their only decisive defeat from Greenfield, 33-19, and the Greenfield Second team, 31-29. 181 Back Row: Mr. Perrin, Vail, A., Batchelor, Close, Anthony, Stone, R4 Lane, A.g Mr. Ellert Front Row: Jordan, Morse, VVhittemore, Avirett, King, Upton, Nieskoski JUNIOR BASKETBALL ITH a reputation as one of the most polished teams in the school to uphold, the First Juniors started their season in only average form. However, before the winter had ended, Mr. Perrin and Mr. Ellert had again developed a winning quintet, as the record of eight wins and two defeats is witness. The initial encounter of the season was a poorly won 15-11 victory over the Am- herst High Seconds. Scoring for the home team, whose offense never really got rolling, were Vail, Upton, Avirett and Morse. Against Suffield, however, after a slow first quarter, the Green and White dominated the play to win, 42-Q1. At this point, the excellent offensive combination of Avirett and Bachelor enabled the Deerfield quintet to subdue Williston, 32-13. In close succession, though, fol- lowed a slump during which Arms Acad- emy and Turners Falls handed the Jun- iors their first and last defeats in spite of last-quarter rallies. Back in the winning streak again, the team took their first of five successive victories, from the Rivers School. Willis- ton next fell, 38-19, before what was now a fast-moving ball club. Particularly pleas- ing was the 117-37 victory over Turners Falls after the 29-21 defeat at their hands earlier in the season. Whittemore was high scorer with twenty points while Morse, King, and Batchelor played excellently. Mt. Hermon bowed, 36-18, before the Juniors swept on to win their final and objective game with Loomis, 55-Q7. However, credit for improvement should not be confined to the first Juniors J alone, for under the able direction of Mr. McCollum, the Second Juniors had the most successful season that that squad has ever had, winning five of nine games. The seconds took their first game, a ragged encounter with Chicopee, and soon after defeated Keene, 32-22. The play in this game was led by Daniels who compiled thirteen points. With Turners Falls, though, by a score of 28-23, came the first of four consecutive defeats. The second of these was administered by the Keene school in an even game that was only decided on a last-minute score, 19-18. The last two games were lost to Holyoke and Turners Falls by the scores of 22-18 and 17-9 respectively. However, in a re- turn game with Holyoke, the seconds showed their improvement and conquered that ball club, 22-19, 0'Brien and Daniels leading the scoring. But against Mt. Hermon the Second Juniors hit their peak and in making thirty-one points in one half played with the polish of a varsity team, to win, 38-241. The last game on the schedule was won from Darrow, 38- 19. As a group the two Junior teams rep- resented an improvement over last year. Mr. Perrin's squad was certainly equal to his last year's group and from the point of view of steadiness, perhaps superior. Mr. McCollum,s team made a much better showing than had previous teams, and likewise played a larger schedule than ever before. SECOND JUNIOR BASKETBALL Baclc Row: lVIr.

Their opening contest, a loosely played game, was lost to Turners Falls, 16-15, Calder and Allen, F., scoring six and five points respectively. The second game resulted in a defeat at the hands of Am- herst, 21-17. In a return engagement with the Turners Falls team, the lightweights were shaded out in an overtime battle, 19-18, as Jim Angell starred with seven points. Coming into the fourth game, the Green and White just lost to Arms Acad- emy, Q4-22. Mr. Sheehan's charges Won their first game of the season against the Center High team of Chicopee, 18-6, lead by Angell, Pruden, and Young. In the next encounter, the Holyoke Boys' Club fell victim to the Green and White's attack as Allen, F., and Kane each scored eight points to defeat their opponents, 34-26. The Green Won their third straight game from a scrappy Mt. Hermon team, 311-24, Allen, F., scoring twelve points. The final encounter, al- though a defeat, was a thrilling finisher. The eager lightweights, for the third time, were just nosed out by a two-point mar- gin, this time by Greenfield High, 38-36.

MILLER,S Midget Basketball contingent was the only undefeated team in Deerfield winter sports. However, their six-game schedule was not easy, as is shown by the fact that the mighty mites only outscored their opponents, 107 to 89, an average of three points a game. In the first contest, the Turners Falls freshmen succumbed, 13-10, as Don Wil- son alone scored 10. Ewing fell victim to the Green in their next encounter, 21-17. as Rogers and Wilson starred. In the third engagement the Midgets nosed out Arms Academy by one basket, 18-16. Jack Wozencraft was the individual star, scor- ing seven points. Turners Falls was again met and defeated, this time by an 18-15 score. Fine defensive play of the Midgets enabled them to triumph. In a return game with Ewing the Midgets came out on top by a 16-14 score, while the final game was a fitting ending to an already excellent season, as the Midgets defeated Millers Falls, Q1-17. Throughout the season the sharp- shooting of Don Wilson and the fine de- fensive play of Rogers enabled the Mid- gets to emerge unmarred. Ely, Jack Wozencraft, Talley, and Hilson also did well for the Green. In addition to these, the presence of a large group of capable substitutes en- abled Mr. Miller, who coached this team, to rest his starting players with little danger, and consequently played an im- portant part in the record compiled by the team. As a team, the Midgets were the equals of any other in school for their size. Much credit is due to both the coach and the players.

Not a naturally brilliant team, this score was the result of hard work on the part of the players and the three coaches: Mr. Switzer, Mr. Hubbard, and Mr. Williams. Winning the initial encounter from Williston by the close score of 3-Q, the team set a pace that it held for five suc- cessive games. The scoring of Bontecou and St. John plus the defensive work of Captain Lane were instrumental both in this game and in the succeeding one, during which the home team conquered Pomfret in a ragged contest, 3-1. A shut- out, 3-0, was the verdict as Eagan and Bontecou led the play against Athol High. A brilliant play occurred when Eagan, after spilling the defense men, passed to St. John who made the first score. Partic- ularly pleasing was the 3-0 score of the Choate game after the 7-Q loss at the hands of that team last year. Chase in the net is due great credit for his many spec- tacular saves. Not in keeping with the team's usual play was the game against Governor Dummer. Although a tie game until the last few moments, the play was poor and resolved into a shinny battle in the final period. However, Merriam's final score turned the tally, 2-1, in Deerfield's favor. Against Loomis the varsity sextet almost met their match. Leading the final stanza after a second-period score by St. John, the Green and White team was not able to prevent Captain Gaslee of Loomis from scoring to tie the match. The furious pace which the team had maintained so far fell off before Berkshire, what had looked like a scoreless tie was suddenly changed to a 1-0 win for the visitors in the final overtime. Deerfield's second and last defeat was at the hands of Cathedral High in the Springfield Arena. In spite of the score, 6-3, this was a hard and well- played battle on both sides. Back in the stride again, Deerfield took a hard-fought game from Mt. Hermon on St. John's early score. As a fitting climax to a brilliant season, the Green and VVhite team came from behind to defeat Vermont Academy, 3-1. After the opening goal by Simonds, the Vermont Captain, Allen scored on a pass from Eagan to tie the game. In the final period, however, Allen again converted to break the dead- lock while two minutes later Saunders made the final tally. .ft That Deerfield had a strong defense is evident from the fact that the team out- scored their opponents, QQ-13, and forced both of their conquerors to play hard for a victory. Although there were a few out- standing players, it was the power of the team as a whole that produced its record. This year's first line was exceptionally strong, paced by St. John the team's high scorer at center ice, and Bontecou and Saunders at the wings. This line had an excellent scoring punch and also was strong defensively. At left defense, Cap- tain Bill Lane had a more than creditable year and was ably supported by Ed Eagan. Heman Chase, in his first year as goal tender, turned in some brilliant per- formances and more than once saved the game. However, without the excellent support of the reserve lines, consisting of Mills, Campell, C., Merriam, Allen, Vail, McGay, Brown, and Alexander. the sea- son would not have been so successful. Back Row: Preble, Connally, Fisher, W.g Farnsworth, Chafee, Fisher, B., Costello, Mr. Hubbard Front Row: Marks, Soper, Upham, Merriam, Salvatore, Hack, Agry JUNIOR VARSITY HOCKEY N a season giving an even break as between victories 3-lld losses, the Jun- ior Varsity achieved a notable improve- ment over the record of the preceding year. Three games were won and a like number lost, and one resulted in a tie. The season opened with a 1-1 draw with Brattleboro, following which came a defeat at the hands of Massachusetts State by a score of 4-0. The next game, also, was a loss, to Springfield High, 2-0. Snapping out of this inauspicious begin- ning, the team defeated Vermont Acad- emy Q-1. A return game with Greenfield High yielded this time a Deerfield victory and also evened the count of victories and defeats for the season to date. Mount Hermon then wrested a narrow victory, but the Deerfield team recovered its poise, and closed the season with an- other 2-1 victory over Vermont Academy. High scorer and leader in the attack for Deerfield was Captain Bob Merriam, until his later advance to the Varsity, McCain was a tower of strength on de- fense, and Burrill was effective at ad- vancing from defense position to become a scoring threat. Agry and Marks, alternat- ing in the Green and White goal, devel- oped rapidly as the season advanced, holding the opposition to five goals in the last four games. There was no hard-and- fast first line, various combinations being assembled around Captain Merriam. A great deal of credit is due all hands for their co-operation, and it is evident that hir. Hubbard, the coach, through his constructive efforts has turned out ma- terial of much promise for replenishing next yearis Varsity. lffv 'WW f f 193 194 195 Zh I O E E U5 as L 2 4 e5 .id L4-1 2-5 un: CI Q2 'U -.

Built around a nucleus of seven returning lettermen, ably led by Captain Warrel Doggett, the team worked hard, and after a poor start ended up in fine shape with four wins and four losses. The im- portant thing is that all the swimmers improved, turning in markedly better times as the year advanced. In the opening meet facing the Amherst Freshmen, the Deerheld team tasted defeat by a score of 45-QI. The relay team of Ham, Cameron, Clark, and Captain Doggett turned in the only first place scored by Deerfield. Hoping for a come- back the next Week with the Williams' Freshmen, the swimmers again were turned back although the Relay Race was won, and Jones swam a beautiful race to win the 100-yard freestyle. The team's first victory came against Albany Aca- demy after Deerield came from behind to win the final relay and take the meet, 36-30. First places for Deerfield were taken by Clark in the forty-yard freestyle, Goodeve swimming a hard race in the breaststroke, Stack, Goodeve, and Dog- gett in the medley relay, and Jones, Sayce, Ham, and Doggett in the freestyle relay. Hoping to even up the score, the Var- sity swimmers had a very exciting meet against the Wesleyan Yearlings, but were just nosed out, 34-ESQ. Captain Doggett, after having hard luck in his Hrst three races, took first in the two-twenty-yard freestyle, Cameron taking second. Stack also took first in the backstroke. With the score 27-27 at the end of the dives, Deer- field won the medley relay, but lost the freestyle thereby losing the meet. The Freshman teams were just a little too strong, and a week later the Dart- mouth Yearlings handed Deerfield its fourth and last defeat. Jones swam well again to win the fifty, and Stack did well to win the backstroke. Swimming a beautiful race against a very fine two- twenty man, Warrel Doggett took a very close second. The medley team, Stack, MacRae, and Sayce and the relay team of Ham, Jones, Doggett, and Soper won, bringing the score close but not quite close enough. The team began its winning streak against the Pittsfield Boys, Club by trouncing them, 51-15. Deerfield took all the firsts except the fifty and the dives. Goodeve took the first win in the breast- stroke, then Doggett in the 220, Stack in the backstroke, and Jones in the 100 all won. As usual the medley relay and free- style relay were won by Deerfield to end a most encouraging meet. Improving steadily, the team won an extremely X 5 ' yy ' ,J 2' iff' 'ff 5 . If ' 7,4 V Z satisfactory victory over Blount Hermon. The score might have been different had it not been for the exceptional showing of Jones who took a first in the 50 and an- other in the 100. Doggett, who had been waiting for a close race to help him cut down his time, swam a fast race to win the 220 and to break the school record. Stack took a first in the backstroke, and Bazley in the dives, and with the help of two wins in the relays the final score ended, 43-23, in Deerfield's favor. The most outstanding meet of the year was the last one with Hotchkiss. Not con- tent with breaking his own record the week before, Doggett again set a new school record by lowering it to 2:27.5. Jones in a brilliant try for the record won his race and tied the old record in the fifty made by Len Smith '37 of 25 sec- onds fiat. Other firsts were scored by Goodeve in the breaststroke, Stack in the backstroke, and Clark in the 100. Bazley and Geary took first and second respec- tively in the dives to set the final score at 41-25 in Deerfieldis favor. i W V, Y- If :I 1 f 1 1 ff! f 'f' .ff , ',, an 'Z H fwflfggfy , ff f' 227 200-yard Freestyle Relay J.

Mr. Gammons and Mr. Kennedy of Amherst, coaches, were responsible for the great gain in form and speed that the team showed during the seven meets that Were held, promising Well for next year. The first meet of the second swimmers' season, a triangular one against Hartford High and the Springfield Boys, Club, was lost, 17-30-30, in spite of the Work of Hollaman in the 50-yard freestyle and Lienbach in the 100-yard breaststroke. To the Worcester Boys, Club, the seconds dropped their last meet. In a return en- gagement Springfield was conquered 40' 25, and soon after the Pittsield Boys, Club fell by a 54-12 score. Against the Mount Hermon seconds, Deerfield was at its peak. In this meet the excellent Work of Taft in the 220-yard freestyle, of Nor- ton in the breaststroke, and of Captain Loomis, McNear, Fay, and Strecker in the 200-yard relay, aided the home team in defeating their opponents, 42-24. To finish their season, Deerfield met and conquered the Hotchkiss seconds, 38- 28. Taft in the 220-yard freestyle, Norton in the breaststroke and Tracy in the 100-yard freestyle were outstanding in this meet and during the entire season as Well. CI G E I-.

Mount Hermoni Leland and Gray Carnival? 203 VARSITY SKIING ITH the best snow conditions in recent years and with a large turn- out for both recreational and competitive skiing, the sport enjoyed a gala year at Deerfield. It is interesting to note that one hundred and thirty-two boys signed up for skiing, the competitors numbering thirty-nine, those wanting instruction, forty-nine, and the recreational group, forty-four boys. This yearls team, which was exception- ally well-balaneed, opened their schedule at Leland and Gray, but due to hazardous ski conditions, only the slalom event was held. Deerfield won easily, taking nine out of the first ten places. Treat, Perry, and Valentine finished in the first three spots followed by McWilliams, Sanborne, and Esleeck. The next meet, one of the hardest and the best ones, was at the Ver- mont Academy winter carnival. Deerfield placed third, which was an exceedingly fine showing, as the team had had little or no practice in the slalom, umping, and downhill. Kimball Union won the meet, closely followed by Vermont Academy. Creditable performances were given by Captain Perry, Avison, and Williams. In the nineteenth annual Cushing Academy winter carnival the Deerfield team showed its mettle, placing second only to Vermont Academy, and finished ahead of Cushing, Gardner High, Leland and Gray, and Leominster. Williams was the star for Deerfield taking a third in the cross country, ninth in the jump, eighth in the slalom, and sixth in the downhill. Other top performers for the Green skiers were Captain Perry and Avison. The following week the team lost a well-con- tested meet to Brattleboro High School 300 to 9271, due largely to the efforts of one Brattleboro skier, Eric Barradale. Williams took seconds in the slalom and cross country with Perry taking a fourth in the downhill. In the fifth meet of the season the Green and VVhite skiers lost a heart-breaking meet to lNIt. Hermon due to a weakness in the cross country. The ever-consistent VVilliams tied for first in the slalom fol- lowed by Perry in third position, and Sawyer in fourth. In the jumping Avison took third and Williams fourth. However, after a lead in those two events, Deerfield lost the meet in the cross country, as only three Deerfield men placed in the first fifteen. The final meet was a fitting one from Deerfield's standpoint, as the Green and White won over Leland and Gray and Cushing at the Leland and Gray carnival, with perfect scores in three events and eighty-five out of a possible hundred in the fourth. Perry took a first in the slalom followed by Riley and with Esleeck and Williams in fourth and fifth spots respectively. The cross country was won by Williams as Toll took third, Es- leeck sixth, and Sanborne tenth. In the downhill VVilliams again took first, fol- lowed by Yalentine's second, Perry's fifth, Rileyls eighth, and Sanborne's tenth. In the jumping Sanborne took sec- ond, Riley fifth, Perry sixth, and Valen- tine ninth. The Second ski aggregation competed in three meets. Their first meet was lost to Mt. Hermon. Toll, Pounds, Flavin, and Volkmann, G., were outstanding. The sec- ond meet was held at Eaglebrook, and the B team placed fourth out of five schools competing. Sawyer was outstand- ing getting three fourth places. The final meet, a dual affair, was lost to a capable Eaglebrook team. In addition for the first year a meet was held for all Deerfield students with the exception of the varsity, thirty boys entering. Bridgewater won the slalom, Zimmerli the downhill, and Deane the cross country. The combined standing was won by Phil Deane, followed by Hen- ry Yazwinski, and Tom Sisson. It is hoped that it will be an animal event.

Sparked by the play of letter- men Stiles, Sadowski, Stack, and 0'Con- nor, and supplemented by a strong group of newcomers, the Varsity nine to date has won four of its seven encounters. The pitching staff has improved steadily, and O'Connor's amazing hurling of the entire seventeen innings of the Suffield game was a high spot of the season. The Varsity was severely set back by the loss of last year's smooth-working infield. This season, however, Stack moved in from the outfield to cover the keystone sack, and soon proved himself a reliable first baseman. The second base- man was Stiles, whose fielding excelled throughout the year, and who was the spearhead of the nine's batting attack. Bill Sadowski, veteran infielder, contin- ued his smooth fielding at shortstop this year, his experience lending to the team- work of the players. Chamberlain covered third, and because of his powerful throw, was instrumental in many put-outs. This year's battery will probably be remembered for its batting power more than for any other single factor. The two pitchers, McGay and O'Connor, ranked high in the team's batting averages, while catcher Averill, whose three hits were instrumental in the Wilbraham encounter, also batted well. After O'Con- nor had singled to start a score-tying rally in the ninth inning of the Suffield game, MeGay won the contest in the seventeenth frame with a well-placed bunt. Besides being strong on the offense, the Green and White pitching staff was steady and effective on the defense. O'Connor's pitching became stronger as the season advanced, and his work in the Suffield and Williston games was out- standing. McGay also pitched well, and although not as experienced as his part- ner, he ably shared the mound duties. The outfield positions were Hlled by newcomers this year, Bridgewater, Mills, Ford, and Hill, being the leading candi- dates for these three positions. The Varsity team met an 11-10 defeat at the hands of the Wilbraham nine in the opening game, as Averill was out- standing for the losers. Besides batting out three singles for four times at bat, and effectively handling the catching duties, Averill, seeing the first baseman off-guard, stole home in the third inning. Due to fine pitching, Williston assumed a safe lead early in that game and outscored the Deerfield team, 5-0, in a cold, rainy encounter at Easthampton. Bob O,Con- nor's mound work was the high spot of the contest. Opening their home season with Choate on May 1st, the Green and VVhite squad dropped a 5-3 decision to the visitors from Wallingford in a game which, after the Hrst few innings, developed into a pitcher's duel, McGay going the full nine innings for the home team. The Varsity broke into the winning column on May 3rd, in a 5-3 Andover contest, a game which was highlighted by adouble-squeeze play, executed by O,Con- nor in the opening inning. Suffield then bowed to the Green and White in a seventeen-inning thriller. McGay's sac- riiice bunt in the seventeenth scored Chamberlain with the tie-breaking run, giving Deerfield a 6-5 win. The Amherst Freshmen were downed by the Varsity, 7-5, and Loomis fell victim to the batting attack of the Deerield squad in a well- pitched 6-2 encounter. Doubles by Stiles and Averill led the offensives. To date the Varsity Baseball team has Won four of its seven games, and shows all the indications of a very successful sea- son. Back Hou,-: hir. Boyden, Howe, Sauter, Soper, Burrill, Watkins, Lee, Gingras, Dolan Front Row: Teaze, Alexander, R. G.3 Ashley, Hancock, Campbell, Treat, Neville, R.g Chase, H.3 Wilkie, Grant JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL T present the Junior Varsity Base- ball team has concluded only six of their twelve scheduled contests, but so far has given every indication of being one of the best Jayvee teams that the school has ever seen. Under the apt tutelage of Mr. Bartlett Boyden there has been a great advancement in the ability of the team. Responsible for the team's aggressive strength is the consistent batting of Soper, Bontecou, and Neville, while Campbell and Ashley have deliv- ered exceptionally well from the mound. In the seasonis opening game, even with the late start, the Jayvees van- quished Choate by a score of 10-4. This game was particularly noteworthy as this was the 'drst time in five years that the Deerfield Jayvee team has beaten a corresponding team from Choate. The contest was very satisfactory for an open- er, the team making twelve hits, three each by Sauter and Hancock, and only one error. The next game to follow was a victory over Hoosac by a score of 23-4. In this game Alexander led the batting with four hits while the other Deerfield men had no trouble in hitting the op- ponent's pitching, getting a total of twenty hits. On May 7th the J ayvees won again, this time over Suffield by 21-4, in a game which Ashley pitched in very fine style allowing one base on balls and striking out twelve men. Also featured in this contest was the long-distance hitting of Soper and Chase. The team suffered its first defeat at the hands of Arms Academy by a score of 9-7, in a Very closely contested game in which Deerfield threatened again and again to overtake the Arms team. Next, the Junior Varsity conquered Leland and Gray, 10-5, and tied the Greenfield Sec- onds, 10-10, with the reserves playing a major part of the latter game. The first team has had a particularly tight infield, with Treat at first, Alex- ander, the sparkplug of the team, at second, Hancock holding down third and Sauter at shortstop. Heman Chase has capably and effectively handled the catching duties, and the outfield posts are filled by Wilkie, Neville, Bontecou, and Soper. The team faces the remaining six games With high hopes of continuing its 5 l Q already successful season. This year's Jayvee team will be remembered for its infield more than any other single feature. It is safe to say that it compares favorably With any of the teams met so far this year, it is certainly as good, or better than any other of the best of the old Deerfield Junior Varsity teams. Just as six of the men on the present team came from the Juniors, it is expected that some of the men with Mr. Bartlett Boyden this year will be with next year's varsity, particularly because of the large number of undergraduates playing. Besides the first team there is a reserve team coached by Mr. McKenney which has had an excellent year with Dolan doing most of the pitching and Gingras behind the plate and with outstanding hitting being done by McGarrah. Back Row: Mr. Perrin, Chapley, Smith, C.3 Brown, T .g Anthony, Morse, Bayles, Melnik Front Row: Lane, A.g Cugell, Pounds, Kane, Vail, A., Zinsser, Hahn, Putnam, Eaton JUNIOR BASEBALL HOUGH the Junior Baseball team was not a powerful scoring team, yet despite its shortcomings in the batteris box the team compiled as good a record as any other Juniors of the past. Strong defensively and consistent in their play, the 1940 Juniors played a brand of ball that was steady enough to keep their opponents, score very low, and brilliant enough in the pinches to drive in the nec- essary runs. The season was characterized by sev- eral things in particular. One was the reliable pitching of Jim Anthony, another was the tight defensive play of the infield, composed of Hahn, Zinsser, Pounds, and Kane. The outfield was patrolled by Vail, Putnam, and Cugell. The catching was handled by Melnik and Morse, While Chapley and Neiskoski filled in nicely as alternate pitchers and utility men. Since hitting power on the team did not de- velop until quite late in the season, Mr. Perrinis forces had to put considerable trust in the squeeze play, Deerfieldis old standby. This play, however, was very successful throughout the season, and accounted for many runs. The schedule was opened with a victory over the Wilbraham Seconds, contrary to most opening games, the encounter was not a sloppy one, Deerield winning by 8-1 and playing eight errorless innings in the Held. Outstanding hits were made by Melnik, Kane, and Chapley, While Zinsser, Hahn, and Vail all scored runners on perfect bunts. In the next game the Juniors buried Kimball Union under a merciless barrage of hits to win by 23-4, and followed this with a 7-2 victory over Williston on May 1, the three-hit pitch- ing of Anthony and the timely hitting of the offense were the important features of the game, while the defense Was marked by fine play on the part of Christy Smith in the outfield and a fast double play in the infield. The team then met Wilbraham in a return game on May 8, winning by 13-5, in a game that was ragged and sluggish, the playing of Put- nam and Vail were redeeming features in this game, however. On Spring Day the team displayed a strong brand of baseball to down Northampton High School handily, While on May 15 the Juniors overcame a strong Mt. Hermon nine by 5-4, a poor first inning was almost fatal to the Perrinmen, but the pitching of Anthony and home runs by Morse and Vail saved the situation. This year the Second Juniors, coached by Mr. Tisdale, had a large squad and played several games With moderate suc- cess. Many boys had a chance to see action, and many who showed up Well will fill in the places on next year's Junior nine.

The fielding play was excellent, the hitting good, and the pitching well taken care of. In the opening game against West- minster, Deerfield came out with a well- earned victory due to the excellent pitch- ing of Rogers, some timely hitting, and tight defensive play. Hits by Allen, Forbes, and Pruden clinched the game at 8-3. In the next game with Turners Falls the lightweights got off to a nice 4-1 lead, but some loose outfielding spelled defeat and with two runs in the ninth inning Turners Falls won, 8-7. Pruden had three hits, and Leggat excelled in the field. In a return game excellent pitching and hit- ting turned up a well-deserved victory for Turners Falls, 9-3. Although the losses to date exceed the wins, the coming games with Vermont and Mt. Hermon should better their average. To Mr. Sheehan should go much of the credit for his team's showing and for its improvement. Back Row: Childs, Hilson, Douglas, Stokes, Shearer, Campbell, J .g Hawks, Struby, P.

The team, built almost entirely from new boys, has pro- gressed rapidly in fielding and hitting, and the pitching, which was a source of Worry at the season's start, is being handled in fine form by Peter Ely. The only game played thus far against Lenox ended in a well-deserved victory for the Midgets. Ely struck out eight men and allowed only seven hits, as the team triumphed, 8-2. With the team playing errorless ball, Reese Howard led the hitting with two sharp singles in two times at bat While Taft, Collester, and Ely also hit well. Although Deerfield could produce only six hits, they won through their aggressive playing. Five times the first man up, having reached first base, stole second, and came home on a bunt. With a large schedule yet to complete, the Midgets will have ample opportnuity to prove themselves. They are yet to meet such contenders as Holyoke Boy's Club, Greenfield, Choate, and Eagle- brook. With those already mentioned, Cleveland, Sawyer, and Dobbins have aided the team materially. From what they have shown, the Midgets should finish up in ine shape largely through the edorts of the coaches, Mr. McCollum and Mr. Simmons. 218 l If fd P5 if .2 U Q2 3 -r: .E v-I M 'U 5.

With a majority of the season behind them, the squad has suffered only one defeat, at the hands of Exeter, and has a good chance of winning the remaining games on the schedule. On a nucleus of seven veterans, a fighting but green team was formed to play and defeat the Harvard Freshmen, 8-5, in a rough, typically unpolished open- ing game. Captain Williams ably paced his teamis attack by scoring six of the goals, while the midlields of both teams had more than their share of the play. Next, against last year's powerful Spring- field Freshman team, the Green and White scored a 14-Q victory. The majority of the goals were accounted for by an effective extra-man attack. Many bril- liant saves on the part of the goalie, Art Allen, and the widely distributed scoring were instrumental in this win. Following, was a particularly pleasing victory over the Yale Freshmen after the 5-6 defeat at their hands last year. Not until 13 minutes of this game were up was there any score, and at the half the home team was leading only by one goal. However, in spite of the close score, Deerfield clearly outplayed the opponents in the last half and completed the game, 6-41, on a goal by Hardy. Probably the best of the season was the game with Andover in which Don Lind- say broke an '7-7 deadlock forty seconds after the start of the overtime. Through- out the entire game, the two teams battled on even terms with both attacks displaying speed, power, and drive. Never did one side hold more than a two-goal lead and each period, excepting the overtime, ended in a tie. The play of Lindsay, Lane, and Hardy in Deerfield's first midfield was particularly good, these three accounting for five of the nine tal- lies. In spite of this hard game the stick- men came through but four days later to hand Worcester Academy a 19-6 defeat. In this 'dfth consecutive victory, Averell Clark was outstanding and led the of- fense in accounting for four of the nine- teen goals. On Spring Day the Varsity Green played Exeter and suffered its first defeat at the hands of these all-New England Champions. To say that the score of the game was 15-1 would be true, but it would give no indication of the type of play exhibited by the home squad. Without the steady play of the whole team the score would have been much greater. As their record shows, this year's team has been an exceptionally fine one both offensively and defensively. Captain Wil- liams and Clark, high scorers so far, Lane and Lindsay have led an attack that had a spark and a drive not to be outdone. Their skill in running extra-man plays and stick-handling, has turned the tide for victory in more than one game. On the defense, veteran Art Allen has turned in a fine year as goalie while Eagan and Leiferts have stopped many an attack before it came within scoring distance. As yet, the games with Dartmouth, Williams Freshmen, Governor Dummer, and Mt. Hermon have to be played. It is the coach's opinion, though, that as far as ability goes, the best teams on the schedule Cexcluding Exeterl, have already been played. So, unless the untoward happens, the Varsity Lacrosse team may close its season with a record of nine wins and one defeat. Back Row: Mr. Hubbard, Pydych, Earle Second Row: Marks, Banning, Cameron, Drake, McCain, Lincoln Front Row: Goddard, Weathers, E., Doggett, Thomas, Heath, 0'Shea, Williams, M. SECOND LACROSSE HOUGH overshadowed by the suc- cess of the Varsity, the Second La- crosse team nevertheless showed up well throughout the season and gave promise of being a smoothly coordinated, aggres- sive group for their last few games. Mr. Hubbard coached it ably, and after a shaky start due to lack of practice, the seconds improved visibly from game to game. The opening game was played against Glens Falls on the varsity field, and the visitors displayed distinct superiority in stick handling and team play as the sec- onds bowed, 17-3. Journeying next to Mount Hermon, Mr. Hubbard's team once more met their match as the Mount Hermon varsity prevailed in a sloppily played game, 10-3. A week later, though hampered by a driving downpour and a muddy field, the seconds conquered Kimball Union in a game featured by the wildness of passes and shots due to sticks hardened by the rain. A return game was played with Kimball Union on their field, and once again the seconds won, this time by a 10-4 score. At this time, there are still games to be played with the Springfield College freshmen and with Lawrence Academy. The second squad was considerably smaller than last year because of the addition of a third team, but among the eighteen players there were several who shone all season. Barry Marks developed rapidly at goal, and should be valuable to Mr. Haviland next year. Bill McCain, and Steele Cameron were the mainstays of the defense, and Jim Thomas, Bill Pydych, and John Chafee starred in the midfield. The team was perhaps strongest in the attack, where Warrel Doggett, Woodchuck Williams, and Weathers were consistently effective. 1 Back Row: Mr. Bohrer, Morris, Weinberg, Fisher, W., Deane, Billings, H., Bryan, Allen, D.g Starzenski, Thompson, Volkmann, G.g Hoopes Front Row: Crolius, Pettingill, Wells, Montague, Stebbins, Loomis, Angell, M., Edwards, J.g Toll, Ziegler JUNIOR LACROSSE HE third year of the Junior La- crosse team at Deerfield found twen- ty-iive boys on the squad. There was a decided interest in the team due to last year's fine showing by the squad. The four-game schedule consisted of home- and-home contests with Mt. Hermon and games with Kingswood and Lawrence Academy. Lawrence Academy took the measure of the Green and White as they defeated them, 9-4. Although the Juniors lost to a larger and more experienced team, the work of Jim Edwards and Stebbins was gratifying. After some practice and pol- ishing up the Juniors met and trounced a corresponding Mt. Hermon team, 12-Q. Three goals by Crolius, the fine play of Stebbins and Wells at attack, and Phil Deane at midfield featured the engage- ment. The contest with Kingswood prom- ises to be a good one, as well as a return match with Mt. Hermon and the Green should offer their opponents plenty of opposition. Throughout the season the fine work of Edwards, Stebbins, and Deane sparked the Juniors. Consistent performances were turned in by Weinberg, Lunt, Pet- tingill, Fisher, Toll, Starzenski, Allen, Montague, Billings, and Morris. Much credit is due to the able coaching of Mr. Bohrer who worked hard all season and who took charge of the squad himself. 1 i I 226 my mf A Y I I 9 f ., Vw . 1 W I C , ' A 1 by I 2 '1 f f , 4 ,, 'W V 1 I . , ,4 , Q f 1 1 .

From the first match the team has been doing extraordinarilly well, considering the fact that Co-captains Potter and Carlisle are last year's only returning lettermen. The varsity,s first test came on May lst, when, in spite of having had little outdoor practice, Deerfield over- whelmed the Williston first squad by a score of 6-1. Before the encounter was finished spring showers made it necessary to cancel the matches being played by Monahan and Welch, the number-one doubles pair, and Potter and Carlisle playing at the number-three position. Deerfield's lone defeat of the day was sudered when Dalzell, after splitting the first two sets with his opponent, was forced to retire because of an injury, and Don Stone tried gamely but in vain to win the third set, losing, 3-6. A week later Deerfield just succeeded in downing Vermont Academy by the close score of 5-4. Hoover, playing number-one for the day, lost in straight sets to a very excellent opponent. King, Edwards, and Welch were DeerHeld's victors in the sing- gles, while in the doubles the reliable Welch-King combination defeated their opponents, 7-5, 6-4, and Potter and Carlisle played brilliant tennis to guar- antee Deerfield,s second victory of the season. The following Saturday, Spring Day, a powerful Amherst Freshman aggregation came down to Deerfield to administer a 7-Q beating to the Green and White. Edwards and Welch accounted for Am- herst's two defeats in the singles, while Deerfield succumbed in the other four singles and in the doubles. Each of the doubles pairs, however managed to carry the struggle to three sets. The Monday after Spring Day, May 13th, marked the worst Deerfield defeat to date this season, 8-1. This defeat was met at the hands of Hotchkiss, one of the most powerful squads that the team will have to face this year. Hoover at the number-five position gained Deerfield's lone point. The most recent tennis battle at this writing took place at Loomis on May 15th, and left the Deerield coaches in a much more contented frame of mind than had the previous two engagements. In this match the Green and White came out victorious, winning six of the nine matches. Deerfield clinched the day's victory at the very start when the team won five of six singles matches. King, Wozencraft, and Don Stone won in straight sets, while Edwards and Hoover earned their matches after three sets. In the doubles, King and Welch, after a mediocre start, played professionally, and came out victorious with a score of 2-6, 6-4, 6-1. As the POCUMTUCK goes to press, the remaining matches are Milton, Choate, Suffield, Westminster, and Mount Hermon. King, a boy who learned tennis the hard way, has been regularly playing number-one singles position, and has one of the steadiest games on the squad. Co-Captains Potter and Carlisle play a very fine, hard-hitting doubles game, and work well as a pair. Welch has perhaps the most promise of any boy on the squad, as indicated by his natural form, accuracy, and speed. Edwards, Hoover, and Wozencraft, all possess accuracy in combination with speed. Bob Stone is one of the most improved boys on the squad, while his brother Don bears close watching in the near future. Dalzell, handicapped by an injury to his side, has by his hard work deserved the respect of all. The prospects for next year's team are bright with the return of Hoover, Stone, D., and Stern, a boy who has done commendable work in doubles matches. Back Row: Mr. Colgate, Poor, Salvatore, Leinbach, Upton, Agry, Newbury, Dewey Front Row: Bell, Calder, Strauss, Bensen, Brace, Watson, Crary SECOND TENNIS LTHOUGH being considerably handicapped, as was the first team, by bad early-season weather, this spring's Second Tennis team has proved itself to be one of the best of the past few years. Mr. Colgate did his usual fine job as Coach and succeeded in putting a first- rate team on the courts for its first match. This match, against the Williston Seconds on May lst, gave the team little trouble, all the players winning their matches easily. However, the second match on May 9th against the Orange High School team was not quite so easy. At the close of the singles the match stood at 3-3, but the Seconds won two of the three doubles to win, 5-4. On May 15 Mr. Colgate's team met a strong Second squad from Loomis and again won, this time by the close score, 6-3. Christy Bell in particular, playing Number 1, gave an excellent exhibition against his opponent with a spirited recovery from a 10-8 first- set loss. Those playing in the first six positions were, respectively, Bell, Bensen, Watson, Crary, Agry, and Brace. Each one of these six men played excellent tennis although lacking the necessary steadiness and confidence to make them equal to varsity classification. However, the Sec- ond team showed by its defeat of Loomis that it can rightly be considered one of the best Second Tennis squads. 3 xv?-xekwf Lifmf-f' , if 1 f If H Z 1 9 Q www ,N Sw .fx W, VY, 'ww lm, Www my 5 2 2. ,I , Q 'ii 2 rf 1 if if L ' fi.

Switzer, Mr. Cook, and Mr. Suitor, and captained by Dave Bradley, has had a very successful season this year. VVith much of good material returning from last year, and several outstanding newcomers, this year's team started very strongly in the first two meets, and was undefeated in midseason. Although hampered by snow and rain in the first few weeks of the season, making it necessary to cancel the Wil- liams Freshman meet, the squad finally started practice and opened its schedule on April 27th. On that date they de- feated the Massachusetts State Fresh- man, 63-54, in an interesting, closely- fought contest. Hack, Orr, Gutterson, and Pescosolido won their dashes and hurdles, while Pescosolido was outstand- ing in the high and broad jumps, winning both. Elkinton won the pole vault, and placed third in the high jump. Captain Bradley, unable to run dashes this year because of a leg injury, was the mainstay in the weights, and promises to earn many points in that division. However, the unquestioned star of the meet, and of the season, as well as the team's most versatile member, was Bill Peseosolido, who alone accounted for 20 of the 63 points. The Governor Dummer meet, sched- uled for May 4th, had to be called OH because of bad weather, so Deerfield did not run again until Spring Day, when Suflieldls trackmen came here. With an unusually large attendance at the meet., the Green and White, showing great im- provement due to consistent practice, completely outpointed the visitors 8-LM to 325. Peseosolido, one of the best men seen in Deerfield track in many years, took five Hrst places, winning every event he entered. Elkinton, Orr, Hack, and Gutterson also Won their running and jumping events again, while Bradley, Jones, and VVhittemore were prominent in the shot-put and hammer-throw. There have been only two meets run off as the POCUMTUCK goes to press. Four remain, and the coaches hope that the team will keep up its high standard and earn an undefeated season. On May 18th, Deerfield journeyed to Mt. Hermon, but lost a close meet largely due to weakness in taking seconds and thirds. A week later, the Williston-Loomis-Deer- field annual triangle meet Will be held at VVilliston, followed three days later by the Amherst Interscholastics at lNIt. Hermon. To close the season, the Green and VVhite will again go to Massachusetts State College for the Relays there. The 1940 track team, its coaches, and its captain deserve credit for their out- standing accomplishments. This was one of the best season records ever had by a Deerfield track team, and it may Well prove to be only the first of a series. TRACK RECORDS 100-Yard Dash R. H.

For the first time in many years the Varsity Baseball Team made a fitting climax to the season with two wins out of the final three games played. On May 27, the team topped Malden, 7-1, in a game marked by Bob O'Connor's excellent pitching. Mt. Hermon won from Deerfield, 4-1, on June 3, due largely to the excel- lent pitching of Malool who allowed Deerfield only one hit. Frank Burgess, who made a home run, and Paul Herrick, who made three hits, were outstanding in the Commencement game, won from Williston, 9-2. A sensational spurt from behind by Deerfield in the 7th inning of the postseason Governor Dummer game resulted in a 5-4 victory, while Cushing defeated Deerfield on June 10, in the year's final game. Although the season saw only five wins by the Varsity, the batting of Captain Wood and the ability of the infield marked this season as a suc- cessful one. Under Mr. Bartlett Boyden the Sec- onds compiled the excellent record of 11 wins out of 13 encounters. Out- standing members of the team were Campbell, Soper and Maniatty. With one of the strongest teams on record Mr. Perrin's Juniors scored 10 victories out of 11 games played. The Junior infield was particularly capable. The tennis team, handicapped by an unusually late start, won only 4 out of 10 matches played, despite the fine playing of Bell, Welch, Towner and Douglas. Lacking field-event stars and middle- distance runners, the Track team lost 5 out of 6 meets, while despite continual improvement during the spring, the Var- sity Lacrosse team enjoyed only a fair season with 5 victories and 5 losses.

Pinafore, presented by the Senior Class with the aid of the girls of the Stoneleigh-Prospect School. Under the joint direction of Mr. Ralph Oatley, who directs the Glee Club as well, and Mr. John Jones, mentor of the Dramatic Club, the play was altogether successful. John Lodge, who portrayed the part of the hero, Ralph Rackstraw, performed well, singing his difficult arias with con- siderable skill. Opposite him, the role of Josephine was played ably by Margy Gardner of the Stoneleigh-Prospect school. Allan Boucher took the part of Captain Corcoran, and his song, Fair Moon to Thee I Singf, which opened the second act, merited encores both evenings. Stooping, malicious Dick Deadeye was played to perfection by Scott Keith, and Margaret Bigelow, did an excellent job as Mrs. Cripps - 'Little Buttercupf Mary Hitchcock, as Hebe, led the in- numerable cousins of Sir Joseph Porter with grace and ability. The Boatswainis mate was played by David Johnson, and Robert Pinkham, as Bill Bobstay, re- ceived an ovation for his rendition of HFor He Is an Englishman. Laurels for the best performance in the play must go, however, to Bruce Barton, who, as Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B., kept the humour of the operetta at a high level. As always, the chorus to a great extent was responsible for the success of the play. The set, designed by Mr. Randolph Johnson, was spectacular, featuring con- siderable detail in the fittings on deck. The cast was beautifully costumed under the direction of Mrs. Howe, and every smallest detail, through the edorts of the manager, Tony Abbott, was well handled. l 247 COMMENCEMENT WEEK OF 1939 HE Commencement Week of last year brought a very successful close to the 140th year in the history of the school, and provided enjoyment for all attending. The usual activities began with the annual Senior Banquet on the afternoon and evening of Saturday, June 3, held in the dining hall. The banquet began at about 4:30, and continued for three hours. An exceedingly enjoyable evening was had by the seniors and members of the faculty. The next day, Dr. B. T. Marshall addressed the baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class and many of their parents and friends, at a beautiful service in the Brick Church, choosing as his topic the importance of wisdom and under- standing. Immediately following this, Mr. Holland Tapley, distinguished violin- ist of The Boston Symphony Orchestra favored the school With an expert recital. Of the throngs of friends which visited Deerfield during the Week, many were present at Boyden Hall for Mr. Tapley,s concert. On Monday afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Boyden held a delightful reception in their home for all the guests, and that evening the first performance of H .M .S. Pinafore, the senior play, was held for the members of the student body and some of the parents. The next evening, the seniors staged their play for a larger audience of friends and relatives, and gave everyone an extremely amusing enter- tainment. As in past years, Dr. J. Edgar Park, president of Wheaton College, delivered the main address at the Graduation Exercises on the morning of June 7, and was followed by Mr. Horace A. Moses, president of the Board of Trustees of the Academy, who presented diplomas to 143 seniors. That afternoon the Varsity Baseball team Won a Well-played game from Williston, 8-8. To top off a busy day, came the Academy Banquet in the Gymnasium, attended by over 2000 persons. Once again Dr. Lewis Perry, headmaster emeritus of Phillips Exeter Academy, acted as toastmaster, intro- ducing the speakers for the evening. One of the speakers was Dr. Charles Tillinghast, headmaster of Horace Mann School, and a noted educator. Mr. Bruce Barton, author, editor, and representa- tive in congress, also spoke. Another speaker Was Bishop Henry Knox Sherrill, formerly of Trinity Church in Boston, connected With many schools and other organizations, he has been Bishop of the state since 1930. During the program, awards Were made to boys who have made outstanding contributions to the school in scholastic and extracurricular work. The highest honor presented was the Deerfield Cup, to that senior who best exemplified the Deerfield ideal of fine spirit and sportsmanship. Last year it was conferred on Robert A. 1Veaver. Jr., vice-president of the senior class, and its presentation was the high spot of the evening. All the graduating class helped in the organization of the last week of 1939, and every boy participated in several activ- ities. A great deal of credit is due to last year,s Senior Class for making their com- mencement Week such a success. The ac- tivities which Were put on provided all present With many interesting things to see and do, bringing a fine end to another fine year.
