RICHARD GEORGE DI CKMAN ACTIVITIES Track 3 Cranbrook High School 1 Highland Park High 2 Ferndale High School 2 Dick could easily be called the Happy Wanderer , for he is by far the most traveled member of our class. Travel in the sense of schools for Dick attended Highland Park, Cranbrook, and Ferndale High school before finally coming to a stop at Country Day. Since becoming a member of our class in the eleventh grade, Dick has been a real sparkplug in the vivacious spirt of the senior class. Dick always has a story to tell whether it be about his narrow brushes with death or about mugsy or just a plain old bull story. He is always in a gay mood and there is seldom a dull moment when he decides that things should be livened up a little. Dick could not be called the most ardent student as he figures that studying is something in the way. Dick had a very promising career as a Varsity football, basketball and track candidate: however a very bad tricked knee curtailed any activity and forced him to sit on the sidelines. Western Michigan gets the call as the establishment of higher learning for Dick. He hopes to study Business Administration, and we all feel that with his terrific personality and fun-loving nature he should be able to find any situation easy to conquer.

PAUL GRAN GER BROWN ELL I ACTIVITIES Football 3, 4 Basketball 3 Baseball 3 Golf 4 Glee Club 4 D-Club 3, 4 Blue and Gold 4 Petey Boy , as he is known amongst us seniors, joined our brotherhood in the sixth grade. Since then Pete has excelled in living it up in the classroom . You can always hear Pete say, Man is this thing undemocratic? , or Boy did I ever get rooked? . Seriously, however, Pete has done quite well in the classroom and equally well on the athletic field. Pete played Varsity football for the past two seasons and proved himself as an invaluable member of the team. He also contributed largely to the efforts of the basketball and baseball teams, winning letters in both sports. One of Pete's favorite hobbies, about which we hear for twelve months of the year, is sailing, and from all indi- cations he is a very adept sailor. He furthers his cause by participating in the Coast Guard Reserve. Pete plans to make his next stop Denison University, where he expects to study pre-medicine. With Pete's very pleasing way and his wholehearted cooperation with his classmates he should be very successful in later years. All right who hocked my glasses Possible? -, 15 -

LAWRENCE SIDNEY F ALLIS ACTIVITIES Track 3, 4 Debating 2, 3, 4 Prefect Sect. 4 Yellow Jacket 2, 3 Editor 4 Honor Society 4 Extemp. Speaking Award 3 Current Events Award 1, 2, 3, 4 Larry is one of those boys who is so active in the activities of Country Day that it is almost impossible to discuss any phase of school life that he is not actively engaged in. His speaking ability was a determining factor in reaching the state championship eliminations in debating for three years in a row. Last year he proved his ability in individual oratory by winning the extemporaneous speaking award. Larry has an amazing ability to remember facts, figures, and events of any phase of history or current events. He has won the Time Magazine Current Events award for an unprecedented four years. Larry has also distinguished himself in the field of student publications by editing the Yellow Jacket. His efforts have produced some of the most interesting issues the school has seen in years. While achieving marked success in outside activities, Larry has not neglected the school's primary function that of gaining an edu- cation. His steady presence on the Honor Society has resulted in his being accepted at Brown University, where he will carry on with characteristic vigor and determination, a study in the field of Social Science.
