Now that we stand at the threshold of graduation, many thoughts fill our minds. Foremost among these is: Why have we spent these last twelve years at study? What is behind it all? To find the answer, we must go back to the latter part of the Eighteenth Cen- tury, to the days of the American Revolu- tion. There, if we were to ask a revolu- tionist why he had fought so bravely and tirelessly, his answer would be simple: He cherished freedom above all else. His words were the belief of all who had fought and the unspoken sentiment of all who had died. Victory finally came, and a new chap- ter in American History was begun. Now the people wanted a symbol - a symbol of their beliefs, ax symbol of liberty. They One Pledge of A llegiunce wanted an American flag. The people got their flag, and through the years it has remained a figure of this cherished ideal. The ideal of freedom. We, too, have been fightingg not with guns, but with our minds. We have been fighting for the eternal preservation of our flag. We, the youth of America, have a job before us. We know what we have to do, and we have the strength and know- ledge with which to do it. All we need is the chance, the chance to live up to our heritage. A heritage that thousands uporf thousands of men have given their lives to preserve. That heritage is sym- bolized by the flag ol' the United States of America. Long may she fly in a world of peace.

ALDEN SHAW Portrait of a Patriot G MONUMEIII Those only deserve Who do not need one: that iv, who have raised themselves a monument in the minds and men- ories of men. This adage seems to be true in this land of ours, espec- ially in the field of education. In this profession you must teach the inexperienced what to expect in life and how to face it. There is one person in Detroit Country Day School who stands out among educators, his name is F. Alden Shaw. ' F. Alden Shaw has done a great deal for education in the State of Michigan. He is also nationally known in the field of education and his methods of teaching are unique for this day and age. Mr. Shaw is a patriot, not in the terms of battle, but in keeping our country strong in the field of knowledge. He has built Detroit Country Day School from a com- paratively unknown school of four pupils to one which has been recognized not only throughout the State, but also in the surrounding States. The graduates of this school have helped to spread this reputation to the col- leges and universities of this country. Boys, to Mr. Shaw, are raw materials, something to mold and shape. He has inspired many to become leaders through his ideas of education. This type of man is gradually disappearing, that is, the rugged individualist who helped to build this country. Mr. Shaw belongs to this school. Unfortunately the trend today is for people to move and think in groups, they do not question anything that is favorable to the majority, they conform. Individualism is conspicuous by its absence. Mr. Shaw is not made in this mold, he has the courage of his convictions and the courage to act upon them. This is the spirit he has tried to incorporate at Detroit Coun- try Day. Outstanding individualism has made great such men as Bemard Baruch, Winston Churchill, Herbert Hoover, and Dwight Eisenhower. Because of their ideals these men are instilled with a desire for knowledge and a deep love for their country. In 1789, the people who wrote the Constitution of the United States were individualists, they planned ahead for the future while others were thinking of the present. Mr. Shaw, is this type of a person, he is training young men for the future because he realizes that without a sound and basic education we cannot have a sound nation. From this you might assume that Mr. Shaw's interest in only in academic education, but this is not so. Mr. Shaw was an active participant in sports when he went Seven Hazlitt to school and now he does everything in his power to see that his boys are developed physically as well as mentally. He has maintained a balance between academic educa- tion and athletics. He attends every sports activity during the various seasons. Now that Detroit Country Day is at a new location he has many ideas for other new sports. Mr. Shaw believes that a well balanced education is not only academic but it is also necessary to develop a healthy active interest in other activities. Mr. Shaw has a deep interest in the cultural develop- ment of the student. Because of Mr. Shaw's interest, he has arranged for musical concerts during the school year. To a new student arriving at the school, the methods and philosophy of Mr. Shaw may seem strict. At first the student may resent the restrictions placed upon him. But when he leave Detroit Country Day, he will realize in college and all through his life what Mr. Shaw has done for him. He will find that his life has reason and motive, because of his early schooling. Mr. Shaw's ambition for a new school has come true and it is only his persistance and faith in his dreams that has made it so. Another of Mr. Shaw's ambitions was to have both a boys and a girls school. For the first time in the school's history we have a girls school. These ideas and many more have gradually been acheived by a long and arduous struggle. There have been many set- backs and seemingly insurmountable problems, but now we can look at what we have and all of the problems seem small and inconsequental. Mr. Shaw has once again embarked upon a new adventure. It was exactly forty-four years ago in a little house that Detroit Country Day first started. Who, but Mr. Shaw, would have ever thought that this little school would gradually grow to the size and importance that it has today. We, of the Senior Class, have great respect and admira- tion for Mr. Shaw. If we can follow his example, perhaps we too will contribute something worthwhile to our coun- try. F. Alden Shaw is an individualist, and it is because he and his beliefs, we of the Senior Class shall always remember him and be indebted to him for what he has taught us. To this man, we proudly dedicate this year book. Egh l X. lt was a humble beginning, but as sometimes happens, the end result was a great achievement. Mr. Shaw first began as a private tutor of four students. Today he stands at the head of a large school. Many years have passed since 1914 and that first session held in the Ferry Ave. home of its founder. Known as the Detroit Preparatory School, the school re-opened at Euclid Ave. following World War I . Then in 1923, the building on Seven Mile Rd. was acquired and the school name changed to Detroit Country Day School. But still the task was not near completion - sections were added to the building to accomo- date the Junior School, and finally, the Primary Grade facilities were erected. Today, graduates of Country Day School occupy many important posi- tions, their talents and interests are wide-spread and yet they are united by a bond of tradition - a bond that compelled them to work and hope for the new building. Yes, with a dream and a prayer F. Alden Shaw faced the world in 1914, but today, in a beautiful new building Mr. Shaw is still not content, he constantly strives for improvement. Herein lies the secret of his success, for Mr. Shaw is ever on his guard to keep both himself and his school up to the times - indeed far ahead of the times. As we try to project ourselves into the future we are struck by the fact that new and different doors are being opened every day. V Sports, science, studies-all should prosper at this new location. Still, there is one more ingredient needed before the school can really attain the success that it seeks. We of the Senior Class have tried and will con- tinueto try to express it throughout this yearbook. As you tum back to the preceding pages or forward to the coming ones, we hope that you will agree with us that only by growing with the times, sharing in the bless- ings of our land, and working to do our best, can we really achieve our goals. Let's set our sights high and Hitch our wagon to a star, even though our feet may be stuck in the mud. Nine MENS SAN!-X IN CURPUPIE SAND CONTENTS OEOICATION. . . . FACULTY .... . SENIORS ..... .

ALDEN SHAW Mr. Shaw is a graduate of Harvard University and is the Founder and Head- master of Detroit Country Day School. In past years, Mr. Shaw has taught nearly every subject in the school, limiting him- self to Geometry and Government this year. PAUL K. PHILLIPS Mr. Phillips received his education at Amherst College and has shown the students here at school that History can almost be fun. Mr. Phillips is also an instructor in Latin and is a well loved member of the faculty. IAMES S. DUE Upon completing his education at Bates College and the University of New Hampshire Mr. Doe became an instructor at Detroit Country Day School and is the head of the Science and Mathematics Department. Fourteen MARION A. TBUYEB Miss Troyer was educated at Toronto University and is an instructor in the Seventh and Eighth grades here at school. Miss Troyer taught at several schools before coming to us and she is certainly a valuable addition to our faculty. ALLEN P. SPPIINGEH As a graduate of Columbia University and Clermont-Ferrand, Mr. Springer has taught at many schools, settling at Detroit Country Day. Mr. Springer is the English instructor at our school. Fifteen MILDBED A. HAMILTON Although Mrs. Hamilton received her M. A. degree at the University of Michigan, she has also studied at Middle- bury College. Mrs. Hamilton is new to our faculty this year and also is a Spanish instructor at the Bloomfield Country Day A School. MR. CHARLES McANDREWS Mr. McAndrews was the debating coach here while he was still a student at Wayne University. He is now with us full time, not only coaching debating, but teaching as well. MRS. IDA FALIK Mrs. Falik studied at Wayne University and has since been an instructor in the Detroit Public School System and here at Country Day. Mrs. Falik teaches typing here and she is always helpful to the students. Sixteen MR. CLARENCE E.

They are endowed with a school and class spirit which has carried them successfully through many projects and activities. Three of our number, Robert Sandler, Ronald Gurd- jian, and James Johnston have been privileged to attend Country Day since kindergarten, which, at that time was under the direction of the well loved Mrs. Stinson. Gradually, through the upper school years, our fel- low classmates joined us one by one to comprise a well rounded group of students, athletes, debators, and mus- icians. In the ninth grade we lost one of the favorites of our class, James Hauser. Though he was taken from us suddenly by death, we will always feel Jimmy's presence here among us. Clark Montgomery, George Edwards, and many others have moved away, but we like to think of them still, as a part of the Senior Class of Country Day. The Senior Class has taken an active part in all school athletic activities, with this years football team being co-captained by Sheil Salasnek and Ron Gurdjian, and this years basketball team having Dave Derleth as one of its co-captains. Among the other football and basketball players in the Senior Class are Robert Sandler, Frank Trippensee, Joseph Golden, Craig Smith, and Robert Nathanson. We are also proud of our golfers, Jon Kingsepp, Thomas Garner, and James Johnston. We end the school year with America's favorite pastime, baseball. The Seniors have many participating in this sport: Charles Kovan, Paul Bringard, and Stephen Raimi. In the non-athletic activities we are justly proud of the first man on the debating team, Robert Sachs, who not only won a scholarship last year, but also participated in the debate for the State championship. Six of us are members of the Glee Club, five hold positions of the Yellowjacket staff, and Sheil Salasnek represents us very well in the field of dramatics. The Senior Class is nobly Twenty-six e Stand represented on the Honor Society and they also have a fine representation in the D Club. The activities of the Seniors since the ninth grade have been many and varied. Two years ago we introduced a series of work days , a successful money making project which included everything from car washing to cleaning attics. The showing of a number of full length motion pic- tures during the school year is another of the Senior firsts. In the elevnth grade we sponsored our very successful and well patronized dance at Arthur Murrays. To start off our first year in the new building we held a Get- Acquainted dance with our popular next door neighbors, the girls from the Bloomfield Country Day School. We all agree that above all else we are most proud of the fact that the class of fifty eight is privileged to be the first to graduate from the new school. Although memories of our years in the old school on Seven Mile Road will always be fondly held, we are extremely proud of our fine new building and of those, who, through sacrifce and hard work have made it all possible. We feel that our greatest class achievement is this yearbook into which we have poured so many of our hopes and have gladly devoted so much time to. When we first started plans for this book, it seemed an almost insurmountable task and a far too ambitious accomplish- ment, monitarily, for one class to undertake. But, as the funds in our treasury accumulated, slowly increasing year by year, our dreams began to materialize and the book you are about to read came into being. We, the Senior Class of nineteen fifty eight sincerely hope that the impressions we have left with the school, our headmaster the teachers and our fellow student are favorable cines. When our footsteps no longer rea sound through the halls and classrooms and we have gone out into the world, our sincere wish is that all those who have contributed to our education will never have their hopes shattered, and that their faith in us will always be more than justified. Paul Brin ar Activities Baseball 1,2,3,4 Basketball 3 Glee Club 3,4 D Club 3,4 Blue and Gold 4 When Paul enrolls next fall at Wheaton College, it is hoped that he will hold strongly in his mind the associations which he has made here at Country Day. For we, the Senior Class, know that it will be a good long time before we ever forget about him. His high standards and high ideals have set a pattern which the rest of us have followed. His outstanding knowledge of the Bible and his interest in the Ministry have added to this class a certain religious tone, which is so necessary in holding a group together, be they young or old. And so, as Paul leaves Country Day, we can look back upon his athletic prowess, his strong contribution to the yearbook, and above all, his determination to get what he feels is right. Everyone wishes Paul good luck, but maybe Paul already has that special kind of luck.

You say he's a real whiz at Chemistry and for the last four years he has been an all around athlete and he was co-captain of the basketball team. Now, what else? Oh, he was on the honor society and you hear that he is going to take pre-med at Carleton University or the University of Michigan. I see, is he tall? A real friendly guy, easy to get- along with? A real sort of happy-go-lucky guy? Well, I think I've found your man. We call him Dave and everything you've heard is true. However, you forgot one thing, these things you mentioned don't just happen, they have to be worked for. It takes a lot of determination and hard work to excell academically and athletically at the same time and don't think it doesn't. But we know that as Dave pursues his profession of medicine, all of that hard work and determination will again be put to good use. Tom Garner Activities Football 1,2 Golf 2,3,4 Glee Club 4 Orchestra 1,2,3 D Club 3,4 Twenty-nine A prominent physician, 20 years from now, will probably be the reputation of Tom Garner. Tom's main ambition is to go into the field of medicine. During the summer Tom works as an orderly at Providence Hospital, thus gaining ex- perience and knowledge of the medical profession. ln school, Tom is quite active in the Glee Club, and one can hear his melodious voice between classes and sometimes during classes. Tom's favorite subjects are chemistry and physics. We all forgave Tom when he tried to blow us up in chemistry class last year, we all realized that he was trying to find a solution to a problem- how to get rid of Mr. Doe? Tom is also active on the golf team, he started when he first arrived at Country Day and now he plays a pretty fair game of golf. We all know that Tom will be a success in life. loo Golden Activities Central High School 1,2,3!6 Basketball 3 Glee Club 3,4 Blue and D Club 4 Gold 4 Prefect Board Secretary 4 School Social Committee 4 Yellow Jacket 4 ..-Eff-zlfifffz 155552 i525Sffifififffffffufffifffz 5 Q. Thirty Hey senorita, call me on the line .... These words can be heard from the golden voice of Detroit Country Day-Joe Golden. We can't say much about Joe, mainly because he is so active that it would take up too much space to relate his activities. The only thing that would describe Joe is fun loving, and an all around guy. When one enters the school Monday, feeling pretty blue because of a date over the weekend whose there to cheer him up but Joe--by the end of the day the poor fellow is in worse shape. Joe wanted to participate on the basketball team this yearg however due to a minor accident he felt that he wouldn't be able to come out for the team. Joe plans to go to the University of Michigan where he will either take up Law or Medicine. If Joe decides to go into Medicine he can always sing to his patients to soothe them. Joe is another Sinatra, the only difference is that Sinatra can sing, Joe trys. All kidding aside we can honestly say that whatever profession Joe enters he will be a success due to his great personality.

This flipant ex- pression can come only from Ron Gurdjian. Ron is the mechanic and one of the better athletes of the class. If one goes over to Ron's house after school, he can see a Heap of a car in the back yard. This is Ron's pride and joy. someday Ron hopes to have the car run again, under its own power, but at the present things look pretty bad. Due to certain uncon- trollable circumstances, this year, Ron was not able to participate in football this year, however, he was out to every game to lead our team onto victory. However, in basketball it was a different story, Ron went into every game determined to win. even resorting to such diverse methods as kicking, gouging. etc. Ron plans to go to Albion college and as of yet he does not know what his vocation will be, all of us know that Ron will show the world, which way to turn, providing he gets his turn indicator to work.

Of course that was an exaggeration, but it seems typical of something that would happen to the fun-loving, jovial, golf enthusiast who always seems to be where the fun is. However, not so comical, is the fine job Jim did in making this year's yearbook the best ever. Jim is always ready to lend a helping hand no matter what has to be done. Speaking of getting things done, his athletic ability has been quite thorough. With a letter in Basketball and Football, and four in golf, Jim has left nothing to be desired in the field of sports. And so, as Jim enters Denison College next fall, we of the Senior class are sure that the energetic and capable person that we have known will retain these characteristics and go on to bigger and better things in the years to come. ll Iohn Kingsepp Activities Glee Club 2,3,4 Basketball 2,3,4 Football 2,3 Golf 1,2,3,4 co-captain 3,4 Blue and Gold editor 4 Yellowjacket 4 Vice-President 1 Prefect 2,3 Secretary 3 President 4 School Play 3,4 D Club 1,2,3,4 Athletic Association 3,4 Vice-President 3 President 4 n'. . - . - -'H' u -.........- ,- f ' I l.

John led the Senior Class through each and every one of its endeavors this year acting in his capacity as president of the class. As his plans now exist, John looks forward to a career in law or adver- tising in later life. Also included in John's plan is an education in the east. John has participated in nearly every phase of athletics here at Country Day and has always come out on top. We, of the Senior Class feel certain that if John con- tinues to show the qualities which have made him so well liked at Country Day, he can not help but be a success. Chuck Hovan He who puts his fellow man before himself, shall always know respect. No words are better fitting to describe one of the most well-liked and respected members of our Senior Class. A person whose sense of humor, vivaciousness, and consideration of others, make being in his company a real pleasure. A person whose work as co-editor of the Yellow- jacket and as business manager of the Blue and Gold has shown his true qualities of leadership and determination. And whether he pursues his profession of law at the University of Michigan or at one of the Western Universities, we are confident that Chuck, with the high standard that he has always set for himself, will be a great credit to his parents, this school, and above all-to Charles Kovan. jf r W .:.. ,,..

Bob entered Country Day in his Senior year and everyone feels that he will improve with age. Bob has contributed most of the jokes to our class and many boys have ex- perienced the sensation of ending up in Study Hall because of laughing at one of Bob's jokes in class. At any school function, Bob is always on hand to entertain. It is certain that his future in the field of entertainment will be a success. Bob's personality helps him in everything he does and we are certain that things will be the same for him in college. Bob and Mr. Doe have become great friends this year because of Mr. Doe's appreciation of a good joke. teve Raimi Activities Basketball 1,2,3,4 D Club 4 Baseball 4 Vg Nb , , -'.- , . . . .,.,..,' . .,.,., ,' -.....,.. . x X -2 - -1-!:- '-Z'1:-P1.

Anyone asking Steve how many points he scored on the basketball court this year will invariably receive the modest reply of, not enoughf' Steve is hewn of the material that makes men great-flesh and bone. Throughout his high school days, Steve has shown himself to be a very capable student and a very humorous person. Active in community activities CYoung Communists, Saturday Knitting Club, etc.J, Steve has planned a career in en- gineering. Steve has been a long time favorite with Mr. Doe due to his ability in the exacting sciences, and all indications show that Steve's choice of engineering for a career was a wise one. ff l tt if A Bob aohs Activities Glee Club 1,2,3,4 Honor Society 1,2,3,4 Yellowjacket 3,4 Blue and Gold 4 Debate 1,2,3,4 Captain 4 Class President 3 Prefect Board President 4 Harvard Book Award 3 Extemporaneous Speaking Award 2 o .f--JI .512 ill , 6 a Thirty-seven Resolved that we should give all our barley soup to the needy on Skid Row. The word resolved in that sentence designates the person we are writing about-Bob Sachs. Bob is not only proficient at debating, but also in his studies, while in high school, he has been on the Honor Roll all four years. Bob likes to participate in any school functions with a lending hand and an energetic attitude. Bob is valuable to our class in more ways, for instance, how could all of us pass those hard English tests if it weren't for B o b ' s large handwring. Bob as of yet has not decided on what he will do after college, however, at the moment he plans to enter into the mathematics field. Since we need scientests and mathemati- cians, Bob feels that it is his duty to lend a help- ing hand. Who knows, maybe Bob will be on the first flight to the moon, you never can tell. Well, we all know that whatever field Bob enters he will do an outstanding job and will be a success. If there has ever been a student so definitely cut out for world travel as Bob Sandler isg we have never seen him. As the cosmopolite of the Senior Class, Bob has added his critique and general knowledge to all endeavors. Art work seems to be the specialty of Bob and his achieve- ments can be seen in the Yellowjacket and throughout this book. An excellent history stu- dent, Bob plans a diplomatic career and intends to study political science and political philosophy. As an interesting sidelight we wish to offer a gift suggestion for Bob Sandler-an ivory handled walking stick and white kid gloves. Whether Bob goes on to complete his education at Dart- mouth or the University of Michigan, his success is assured through his excellent study habits and his wonderful personality. heil alasnek Activities Mumford High School 1,2 Football 3 co-captain 4 Blue and Gold 4 Yellowjacket 3 co-editor 4 Prefect 4 Vice-President 4 School Play 3 D Club 3,4 Athletic Association 4 secretary 4 -L:--Qqpnvv xil ' , ff!

Craig Democrat Smith is included in our class to prevent any bad blood between us and Ra1ph's backers. Craig shows a tremendous interest in Politics, but his main love lies in Physics, as is shown by his grades. The physical laws which surround us hold a tremendous fas- cination for Craig and everything must be proven to him. To Craig's advantage is the fact that he will accept nothing without proof and this was a great help to him on the Debating Team this year. Continuing his education at Wayne Uni- versity, Craig will add much to the school and his future class. Frank Trippensee Every morning, when the last bell is about to ring, a cloud of dust can be seen advancing towards the school. As it gets closer we can see a gray Plymouth and at the wheel is Frank Trippensee, crash helmet and all. He drives with the determination that he will beat the last bell, he pulls madly into the parking lot and hurriedly dashes into,school. Once in school he changes from a carefree driver to an experienced orator. Frank is a staunch Republican, and he lets every- one know it, if anyone challenges any principles of the Republican party, Frank immediately battles his opponent with a barrage of persuasive oratory. Frank has not decided his vocation as of yet, but he intends to go to the University of Colorado, where he will find his Utopia-wine, women, and skiing. Everyone in the class feels sure that Frank will hold his own after he graduates from college.

I have taken a giant step to prepare myself for the world. I now know that for every dream the classroom can nourish there is a school of hard knocks to destroy this illusion. Where am I? With what am I left? My diploma, which I have been working to achieve for twelve years, is beginning to look smaller sitting there on my dresser. The time has come to get off my merry-go-round of youth and look around me. I am half way up a ladder. It is a long ladder and the way up is hard and difficult. I have been climbing this ladder all my life, but my diploma has provided me with two chancesg' one is the chance to stop, for there is now a plateau onto which I can step and remain safe, the second is the chance to keep climbing until the day that I might reach the top. Getting off would be so easy to do, and the way up is hard. If I stop here, the doors of opportunity and higher learning will always remain closed to me. My choice is obvious-climb. I know that this is the right choice. It isn't possible for any school to produce a full man or a completely educated man, but a school can bring out the incentive in a person to continue bettering himself, not only in college, but also on into later life. There is no standing still in life, a person may move up or down-never to the side. All the world is a stage and The show must go on. There is a word which, in effect, would explain why I am so interested in better- ing myself. It is a word which combines incentive, dreams, opportunity, and every other word anyone is looking for. That word is America. You see, it is the American way of life--all these thoughts have been tied down to one word. Per- haps it is a romantic notion, or maybe it's because I haven't as yet become mel- lowed with age, but America is the one word in my vocabulary that can mean anything-it depends upon the speaker. Two very important ideals to me are individualism and freedom. I am free to do as I please, free to achieve that which I am capable of. There are places on this earth where these ideals don't exist and where education is run similar to mass production. Although on the surface this may appear the better method, I feel that they are paying for their education dearly in the loss of individualism and freedom. A glory is won by educating scientists rapidly and efficiently, but what price glory? I can feel proud to be an American, proud to be where I am now, and proud to be able to have a choice, but America has made that choice for me and I think she had it made all along-climb.

Under the leader- ship of our officers: Jim Kramer, president, Cliff Higgins, vice president, Jamie Martin, secretary, Tim Young, treasurerg and Roy Gilbert, Prefect, and through the guidance and advice of our capable faculty advisor, Mr. Springer, we as a class have had an eventful and prosperous year. Our class, though it numbers only fourteen, is always ready to help the school as best it can. Every member tried his best and everyone con- tributed in at least one field. Athletics, for instance, played a major part in the Class of 1959 program. Jamie Martin, Cliff Higgins, Jim Tom Sellers, and Dave Newman, Kramer, manager, represented our class on the football team. Charles Christian was on the golf team and Chuck Nathenson, Tim Young, along with the football team were members of basketball and ' 9 ' tt A ' ' -'- baseball teams. Jamie Martin and Dave Newman were on the track team. The Class of 1959, however, didn't participate solely in athletics. Chuck Nathanson, Bill Smith, and Roy Gilbert represented our class on the best debate team in the district. John Burnside is Mr. Doe's chief lab assistant. The Class of 1959 has its actors too. Rodney Fisk with two years of experience and Chuck Nathanson with one year behind him make dramatics seem like fun, Charles Christian, Rodney Fisk, and Jim Kramer are in the Glce Club and Skip Nielson is president of the Hobby Club. During the course of the year the class of 1959 sold Country Day pen and pencil sets, and we had many successful booths in the May Day Fair. Other successful projects rounded out a year of success and optimism. We all look for- Evard to another good year beginning in Septem- er. sg si IUNIUH CLASS WITH MR.

Timmons Fifty-four Dennis Roosa, one of the members of the Class of 1960 has been at Country Day since kindergarten. Then, starting with the seventh grade, members were slowly added until the present class of 22 members was established this year. There have been many class trips, ranging from science plants, to museums, to factories. These trips have proved to be valuable supplementary material to our schoolwork. The class has always tried to support the school and the Seniors. Our class is always seen at school functions in large numbers and we have held dances and sold school book covers on our own. At the school assemblies our class is always anxious to better their speeches. One member of the class, since moved, won the silver ring impromptu speaking contest in the seventh grade. One of our members participated in dramatics in the eighth grade. More of us are looking forward to dramatic achievements both this year and in the future. On the sports side of the picture, three of our boys re- ceived letters in varsity football in the past years and this year that number was increased to five. Several boys won letters on the reserve basketball team last year and at the present eight boys are active in this sport. Activities also include participation in track and baseball. 4 We have five members of the class on the Glee Club and one boy is on the debating team. The school newspaper, 'The Yellowjacket, has two of our boys on it's staff. Two years from now our class will be the Senior Class. i'1We are proud of our past record and are looking forward to greater achievements in the future. PHIL MARTIN ,av4 ' TENTH GRADE AND NIB.

McAndrews n see in him a force and determination which has made, for Juntry Day, many fine debating teams. Also in the fields of ience and history he has added so much to our lives and enriched em greatly. Those in the class of 1962 are indeed indebted to m for all that he has done for us. The strength of a class lies its students and we as a group have been very active in all of 3 school activities which go to make up school life. Our class s been well represented in all fields of sports, the football team d the strong support of the following boysg Edward Hill, Robert oss, Robert Roberts, and many more of the eighth graders. 'en though we lost many games we are still indebted to the my boys who played and to those who gave to us the spark enthusiasm which we need at those vital times. Some of the t so athletic minded are the more musically inclined members the class, they are Richard Poole and Robert Tann. Both of these boys played in the school orchestra last year, Poole very capably on the violin and Tann performing well on the clarinet. The eighth grade has acquired many new members this year which we feel sure will add greatly to the personality of our class. as time goes on we feel that they will be a very large contributing portion to our group. Our plans are as yet quite undecided but we feel sure that whatever the class tries to do that all of the boys will cooperate one-hundred percent. In this age of missles and rockets the need of men of high moral and intellectual qualities is of the utmost concern to this future generation and these requirements are being met daily by the eighth grade. The mem- bers ofthe class of 1962 no matter what their choice of occupation or profession is, we feel sure, that when thc chips are down that they will excell far beyond their fondest dreams. In summing up, this class we, the members of the senior class would like to wish the students of the eighth grade all the success due them. ral 1 ' 2? l EIGHTH GRADE AND MH. MAC ANDREWS D.

Slatkm Fifty-eight We are sure that the entire student body is aware of the great number of achievements of the class of 1961. In view of this fact, we aren't going to say anything about: The presence of many of our members on the Honor Society, this year and during the past, The contributions of this class to the debating team, with three of our members on the Junior Varsity, and another member participating. With the expert guidance of Mr. MacAndrews we had a very successful season and very few losses, No less noteworthy, quite a few members of the class have participated on the various athletic teams. With Coach Halling directing the football, basketball, and baseball, we are sure that the teams will be very successful in the coming years, Finally, several members of our class participate in the Glee Club, and under the guidance of Mr. Doe, are helping to make life around the school a little brighter. But we aren't going to say a word about our achievements. Instead, we are going to tell you about-no, not about our school spirit, which is rampant, the entire class is always present at the traditional D.C.D.S.-G.P.U.S. games-not about our class's having several members who have attended this school since early grades-but, simply about the courses that a ninth grader takes. The day begins with an assembly with Mr. MacAndrews. Then we study Ancient History and Earth Science, with Mr. MacAndrews as teacher. After that, it's Latin with Mr. Phillips and English with Mr. Springer. The last move is to Algebra with Miss Troyer. We hope we have shown what makes up the class of l96l and we are looking forward to three more years here at school. P. W. WILLIAMS W. R.

'N As we look at the seventh grade, we see a very prom- ising class. Although they have five long years before they too become seniors, they are showing themselves to be a class of intellects and sportsmen. They are going at their job as though they will be seniors tomorrow. Looking at their class roster, we can see that a number of them have older brothers, already graduated from Country Day. This means that they have much to look up to and to strive for, reaching for higher goals than their brothers have already attained. Although they are a young class, they are already shooting for this high mark. Not only are those with older brothers striving to reach this high goal, but the class as a whole is reaching for, and gradually attaining these higher goals. Sports is one of these high goals. In football, basketball, and baseball they are well represented. They are always in there fighting, but they always seem to remain good sports throughout. Other high goals which this class strives for are seen in school activities such as the science club and the assembly speeches. As we all know, school isn't all activities and sports, but studies as well. Here again they rank high. Many of their members are consistantly on the honor roll and the class average is remarkably high. The seventh grade already has much to look back on and they have much more to look forward to. At the rate they are going the sky is no limit for these boys. SEVENTH SHADE AND MISS TBUYEH 114.22 61 t 's P-. Boy 10 Oking ar A1,gbutMr Mr. Does .

Sixty-six Joseph Addison It is both fitting and proper that the Senior Class should honor the Bloomfield Country Day School. Just as we are embarking on the stormy sea of life, so the students of the girls school will do in the future. The fact that education is one of the prime requisites in life was known many years ago. The Greeks had a proverb which covered the subject very well: Education is an ornament to the fortunate and a haven of refuge to the unfortunate. This proverb is especially applicable in the light of present world conditions. Bloomfield Country Day School follows in the tradition of Detroit Country Day School. From a humble beginning, through a vibrant expansion, there has been a firm belief in the rights and duties of the coming generation. Starting with a small enrollment, the number of students has more than quad- rupled in one year. When a school's growth is that rapid there can be little doubt as to the superior instruction. The reputation of the school in regard to academic matters is unquestionably very high. In order to allow the girls school a voice in the yearbook, the school officers were each asked to write a few words. . Kinney Monaghan - Treasurer Past - In September of 1956 seven girls attended school in a new ranch home located in Westwood Manor, with,regular college courses. Miss Christine Boomer and Mr. John Popplestone comprised the teaching staff. Striving for perfection, a fanciful goal at most, is the surest way to achieve success. Perfection, though unattainable, seems to be the watchword at Bloomfield Country Day. The effort of the students and the advice of the faculty are worthy of the highest praise which can be bestowed. Faith Harrington - Vice President T Present- At present there are thirty-three girls in attendance in our building. Each girl is concentrating on preparing herself for college. To round out the program, sports, art, speech, and homemaking are included. We enjoy our affilia- tion with our brother school and we enjoy all its kindness. Lindy Lamberson - Secretary Future - The future of our school lies in its thirty-three girls. Next year we will have our first graduating class. At this time the school will become fully accredited. We know that as the feeling of companionship grows between the girls, the school will also grow. Rosalie Lake - President Ideals - Here we prepare for college and later life. As well as obtaining study and work habits, we obtain social habits. ln working closely together as we have, personality adjustments have proved character strengthening, lending to that great feeling of companionship. There you have it - a school with a humble beginning, vibrant present, and an optimistic future based on those principles which we hold dear. Sixty-seven N W W ?

Rf K Seventy-five N Coach Anderson Coach Shendis ,fo if It's not whether you've won or lost, But how you've played the game! How does a high school of seventy boys pick out a football team? This is the question confronting Coach Halling each September. An average of 20 to 25 boys come out for the team at the beginning of the year. This means that about half of the boys out for the team will be in the starting eleven. lt is up to the coach to build these boys into a hard-hitting compact unit. To add to the disadvantage of numbers another hardship had to be faced by our team this year -- no games could be played at home. We had just moved to our new location and the football field wasn't ready for action as yet. Without winning a game this year, our football team could hardly be judged a success on that account, but on another scoreboard they were big winners. Coach Halling has taught these boys the meaning of the word desire, he has taught them to keep fighting although all the odds were against them. When the two co-captains, Sheil Salasnek and Ron Gurdjian were put in the hospital, one with a brain concussion and the latter with a broken coller bone a new disadvantage was added to the team-they were now without leaders. Jim Kramer and Jamie Martin stepped in as acting captains to give the team the leadership it needed. Seventy-eight It took a special kind of person to go out on that field with all odds stacked against him. Those boys learned what it meant to hit hard and to be hit hard. On the football field it's an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. There are certainly enough rules in the sport, but when the ball carrier is at the two yard line and he has three men in front of him for interference the rules become a little hazy. A lot of good material was lost by the graduation last year and more is being lost this year, but everyone on this year's team has now had a full year of hard-luck experience and next year they are looking forward to some of that hard luck moving to the other side of the linc of scrimmage. With Jim Kramer and Jamie Martin as co-captains next year the team will be under two good leaders. These two boys picked up on some good experience this year by acting captains and they should shape up a good ball club for next year. The Seniors wish Coach Halling and next year's football team the best of luck. Seventy-nine First Row: G. Kontoupes, T. Taylor, B. Haskett, M. Kramer J Seeley B Olmsted D. Derleth, D. Wolf, S.

This year was the first of many basketball seasons in our new Detroit Country Day School. It marked the beginning of a new era in sports. Although the Varsity squad suffered a poor season, a great amount of knowledge and sportsmanship was absorbed by the players. It is more important to learn how to be a part of a a team than to worry only of wins and losses. During this season the entire student body and the faculty were behind the team. The climax of the season came when Country Day defeated Lamphere 37 to 36. At the half, Country Day was losing by 15 points. The team battled throughout the second half and they were only 1 point behind when Ron Gurdjian stole the ball and sunk the basket on a break-away to make us victorious by one point. This being our first year at the new school, the season was aimed at building future teams. Our height was not good and many of the boys were young and inexperienced. The major problem the team had to overcome was that of having no place to practice. Our gym wasn't completed and we had to use the gym at the old school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Only two days practice a week are not sufficient to groom a winning season. Overlooking this year's obstacles, the future team looks bright. Many boys in the ninth and tenth grades are beginning to show good potential and these boys are the Varsity of the coming years. Coach Halling is preparing the under- classsmen now so that they will be ready for the future teams. The seniors participating on the team this year were Dave Derleth, Ron Gurd- jian, and Frank Trippensee. These boys will be a great loss to both the basketball team and the school. Two of the seniors were the high scorers for the seasong Dave Derleth with 113 points, and Ron Gurdjian with 101 points. The man who deserves the credit for the fine spirit in basketball this year is Coach Dan Halling. Having very little opportunity to make a real ball club out of the team this year, Coach Halling used every chance he had to better the team. He kept pushing the boys until they were in shape. If the going got a little rough, the Coach made the boys try harder. Coach Halling has shown that he is not one to quit. Dan Halling is an outstanding Coach as well as a friend to the students. We of the Blue and Gold would like to congratulate Mr. Dan Halling and the Varsity for a fine and sportsman-like season in the tradition of the Detroit Country Day School.

Jon is another of the on the squad and hns will leave a hard spot to One hundred twelve Looking back on our baseball record this year, one may get a false impression. Although the record itself was not very creditable, The Yellowjackets of Detroit Country Day did not lose one game on their home field. The games our team lost, however, were defeats to better teams and not due to a lack of cooperation. This years coach was Bob Chendes, who had both the desire to win and the backing of the team. This was Mr. Chendes' first year with the team and the entire baseball team sincerely hopes that it will not be his last. There were many difficulties which had to be overcome before the season opened. The two major problems were: ll Mr. Chendes' unfamiliarity with the players, and 29 the small number of students who participate in baseball. Both of these difficulties along with less important matters were soon forgotten as the season opened. At first base this year was Bob Nathanson. This big 225 lb first sacker could not only cover his position well, but he was also quite capable with a bat. The second base position was filled by Bal Jeffrey. This little Billy Martin was very swift and assisted in many double plays. The short stop was John Seeley, who could not only handle those sizzling grounders, but could also hold his own in that white ehalked rectangular known as the batter's box. Playing the hot corner spot, which is third base, was rifle-arm Gurdjian. The outfield consistec of Tim Young, Chuck Nathanson, and Mike Kramer. Behind the plate was Dave's younger brother, Tom. Little Tom did a fine job at his position and added a lot to the team. Jim Kramer did the pitching, and, as usual, had a fine record. f The team will miss Bob Nathanson, Paul Bringard. and Ron Gurdjian next year, since they are the graduating Seniors. Looking over some of the prospects for the years to come, the team has no worries: Ed Hill, Rick Foss, Steve Solomon, and Richard Moss. With the building program going forward at Country Day, we are sure that the baseball diamond will be completed by next season and everyone should be out there to see Mr. Shaw toss the ball in to start the season.

Peters 8: Paul Hisperia Spring Arbor One hundred twenty This year saw the school debating team achieve an unparalleled success. For the first time in the school's history, the debating team succeeded in capturing both the Metropolitan League Championship and the State Championship. ln addition, Charles Nathanson placed second in the Detroit Free Press Scholarship Contest, winning S800 toward the cost of his college career. The teams achievements may be attributed to one man, Mr. Charles P. McAndrews, coach and instructor of the team. ' In his three years as Detroit Country Day debate coach, Mr. McAndrews has seen his dcbaters win a total of S2500 in scholarships and is now able to claim the distinction of being the first person in Michigan to coach a team to both the city and the state championships. Mr. McAndrews fine work is sometimes overlooked, for he often re- mains in the background while'his team is praised, but his contributions of time and ability can not be ignored. This year's topic was foreign aid and the team compiled an amazing record of 28 victories and only 3 defeats. The Reserve Team this year consisted of Nancy Cowen, Peter Williams, Paul Antze, Craig Smith, Jim Jones, and Bill Sachs. The Reserves counted seven victories and only one defeat. On the Varsity, Bill Smith, Roy Gilbert, Chuck Nathanson, and Bob Sachs combined to produce the finest team the school has yet known. Three of the four boys will be back next year, with Bob Sachs being the only Senior. Sachs' departure, after four years of Varsity debate, marks the end of the second generation of debating at D.C.D.S., for his first year was the last for our pioneer debaters. Debating has always been a high spot at Country Day, and the Blue and Gold salutes the team while wishing them continued good fortune. One hundred twentyrone BOB SACI-IS Left to right, First row: P.

This organization, which began with about fifteen members, has grown until today there are over thirty male and female voices under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Doe. This year saw a vast improvement in the group as new songs were added and new combinations tried. For many years Mr. and Mrs. Doe have donated their talents toward bringing a deeper appreciation of music to Country Day. This year a mixed group met for the first time.

Christmas time saw the first public appearance of the group when they staged a concert consisting of a yuletide medley.
