ROBERT j. LOWRIE 0 lrrzfion TilE class of 1955 is proud to have been the Hrst one you taught at Dwight, Mrs. Lowrie. You have devel- oped in most of us an interest in literature, you have helped us appreciate Shakespeare, Eliot, Austen, Sheri- dan, Shaw, and many others. You have handed papers back promptly, encouraged us with literary skits, helped us with The Penton. and baked prolifically for our Christmas Sale. Most important, you were a friend to every one of us. Your helpfulness and your sense of humor are the rare qualities which have led us to dedi- cate our yearbook to you. Miss Marjorie H.

That was when Freddy Cartwright, Pat johnson and Sally O'Hara were in the second grade of the Dwight School. Through the years we grew steadily, losing only a few members to other schools. Some of those we lost were: Nancy Gunther, Karen McKenzie, Susan Muzzy, Caro- lyn Krum, Tilly Tomkins, Janie Lawrence, Nancy White, Annette Aeberle, Pat O'Neill, Sally O'l-Iara, Carol Lockwood, Ellen Van Alstyne and Violet Escher. The number of the graduating class, however, now stands at thirty-two. The last four years, our years in the upper school, are the most important in our history. Freshman year, Betsy Kelly was our president, Lucy Frost our vice-president-treasurer, and Nancy Arnold our secretary, Miss Mary Core was our advisor. What should we sell for our fall class project? We laughingly thought of second-hand neckties, but finally de- cided on blue felt beanies, which were a great success. During the spring our main project was the Childrenls Theatre Pro- duction of Prince Fairyfootn, directed jointly by Nancy Ar- nold and Clare Russell. Miranda Knickerbocker and Ann Richards took the leads in the play. Not until sophomore year did these amateur attempts show results, then it was that we gave Cinderella in an almost professional manner. Scholastically speaking, most of us followed a schedule of Algebra I, Latin I, Bible I, and Ancient History. A few brave souls substituted either French or Spanish for history. Our nrst Upper School dance was given by the sophomores. Then later in the year the Yale dance and the Pingry dance were given. All these dances were traditional events and each year they were more fun. Besides these dances we had a wonderful year. The juniors gave us a party in February, during which they conducted us through a spook house and treated us to a treasure hunt. We had many slumber parties, two of which were at Nancy Weeks' and at Sandra's. Oppo language was the rage, and now that it is no longer in vogue, we can disclose its secret. You just put op before every syllable. For example: Dwopight Schopoolf' Our motto for the year was S.I. which meant stomach in. The Boy's School was our favorite watch at recess, and once someone even brought a telescope. Sophomore year Ellen Van Alstyne was our president, Ann Richards our vice-presidenttreasurer and Susi Tennant our -zecrelary. Our class meetings were crowded into room num- ber threeg Miss Cooke advised us.

Chuck Carleton's band, situated precariously under the mermaids, contributed to the effect of that event which took place in Neptunes Kingdom, other- wise known as the Dwight School Gym. At Christ- mas time we decorated the main hall with our geometric designs, introducing the three dimen- sional stars as our specialty. We gave our production of Cinderella in the Spring. Tonin Mersch and Miranda Knick- erbocker wrote the script, Tonin was director and Miranda took the part of Cinderella. For many months afterwards small children approached Sue Gay and Susi Tennant, the ugly sisters, and chas- tised them, in all seriousness, for their wickedness to Cinderella. Sophomore year we all took English ll, Geom- etry and Bible II. We alternated French and Span- ish fourth subjects, while Juliet Stark even took German, As the year drew to a close, we held some famous parties. The night after commencement Ellen Van Alstyne gave a slumber party for the entire class. The next day we all went to jones Beach for the day. Those two parties together climaxed a gay and carefree year. But it was in sophomore year that we first began to feel our importance in the final exer- cises of the school year. As Banner Girls we were an integral part of Class Day. The Banner Girls were: Ellen Van Alstyne, Nancy Weeks, Lucy Frost, Pat johnson, Freddy Cartwright, Ann Rich- ards, Susi Tennant and Betsy Kelly. However, junior year was, for many of us, the high point of our four years in the Upper School. Nancy Weeks was our president, Diddy Whitson our vice-president-treasurer and Brookie Kirkland our secretary. Mrs. Meredith became our popular advisor, and she remained with us our two last years. Our big project for the fall was the Christ- mas Sale. Betsy Kelly was our chairman and did a splendid job. Everyone worked hard, even the mothers, and we felt that the Sale united the Class considerably. ln February we gave the junior- freshman party in the gym. A stavenger hunt was the order of the day and we all kept talws on our trazy sisters as they hunted for the goods. junior year, our fear of speaking in thapel was lesfened and we found ourselves enjoying gixing kits for the Christmas Sale. Onte upon a time in the land of OO Blah Dee' was the famous line that originated in those skits. Nancy Arnold and Ann Richards were the class stars with their storms '. llarry Tush provided the mu-'it, and vut were entertained hy a group of singers who were none other than eight of the juniors: Pat .jOll!l'10ll. I.uty lfrost, lfreddy Cartwright, Miranda Knitker- ltotker, Anne Rithards, Susan Gray, Brookie Kirkland, and Susi Tennant who sang Oh llalwj, Mine and Li1nehouse Blues . As Cilass Day, liancjuet, and Clommentement approathed, we sought in desperation to write a hancjuet skit for the outgoing senior tlass. Wfhen x X., A. musical thapels, hut were not alone in their mus- ieal contributions. Through the year many got their licenses. Nanty Silberberg and Brookie were among the first. Well we remember those hilarious afternoons when we all tried to get rides home with them! We never tould pile enough of us in. Miranda interviewed jazzbo and then we tried to get him for an entertainer at our junior Dance. That dance was tertainly another of our brain- it was finally xx ritten we performed a dastardly f hut oh, so delightful, dtedi we hurned the skit. llowexer, in its plate we wrote poems for eath senior and gaxe eath a suitahle gift. At Class Day we reigned in gloryg we otiieially hetantt seniors and reteived our long-awaited tlass rings. Hancjuet was of great importante, for we took over all the ottites of the sthool. It was announeed there that Freddy Cartwright would he our Sthool President. Clonunencenient arriiedp eight juniors: liliza- heth llansot. lireddy Cartwright, Susi 'lie-nnant, Miranda Knickerhocker, Brookie Kirkland, Betsy Kelly, Lucy lfrost, Diddy Whitson, Ann Richards and Pat 'lohn-,on made up the Sniilax Chain, with Nancy Weeks as the Marshall. At Cfomniencement Betsy Kelly was awarded the Elmira Key, an honor given each year to an academically outstanding junior. That year Coinniencement was a day ol regret 1-N and realization. We had finally reached the top. As our friends of IQ?-r said goodhye, we saw the responsibilities ahead of us. We proceeded to make plans to reclecorate our Senior Study. Those dreanis ol' rugs, couches, and coke machines, soon disappeared, lor as soon as we returned in the fall we were liaced with: This year is the most important for your college records, girls. Nancy Weeks was again our president, Sandra St. Phillip our x'ice-president-treasurer, and lirookie Kirkland again our secretary. Our liaithliul Mrs. Meredith was our advisor. The Christmas Pageant was one ol' thc niajor eyents ol' the year. Nancy Wfeeks was the Ma' donna, Sandra St. Phillip the narrator, and Cllare Russell the hell-ringer, lfreddy Cartwright sang the solo. The day lvelore Christnias xacation we had our caroling party. serenading various lac ulty nienihers vu! i xhs Nr 1-'.... and trustees ot the stliool. Afterwards our tlass slumber party was held at Diddy XVhitson's house. Vile ate, played hridge, sang and gossiped. The next nioring, with deep, dark circles under our eyes, we managed to get ourselves to school. Once there, we came to lite, lor it was our turn to spank the under-classmen as they arrived. It was 21 carelree dayg lor we seniors, dressed in ski pants, wore lipstick and did not study. Some ol' us even went downtown in a tree period to huy some tiood. Christmas vacation was festive indeed, Lucy Frost, Pat johnson, Brookie Kirkland, Nancy Weeks, Sally O'Hara and Ellen Van Alstyne gave a gala party on December twenty-stcond to which the whole class and many under-classmen were invited. But upon returning to school we immediately found our S.A.T.'s looming one week later. Senior year we again worked hard from the academic' point of view. We were rounding out our college credits and it proved a never-encling task. The password of College, college, collegc ahead, echoed everywhere. Right after midyear examinations we had an exchange student, Diep from Vietnam, visiting us for ten days. Pat johnson was her hostess. Ap- pealing and vivacious, she taught us a great deal about her country and our world. The last stretch at Dwight beckoned and the months Hew by to the end. College Boards on March twelfth soon passed without any catas- trophe, and later we all heard from our respective college choices. May hfth, the clay of the Father- Daughter Dinner, arrived before we knew it. Mr. Gordon Gay served as toastmaster and the fathers gave a hilarious fashion show. It was our last Father-Daughter Dinner, but more fun than ever. Our traditional trek to jones Beach was a mem- orable event that followed. On Class Day we relincluished our proud senior seats in Study A to the incoming seniors, and hled onto the stage as future alumnae. At Banquet that night we realized fully that we were soon to leave. Then the following day Rev. james F. Martin spoke at our Baccalaureate service. The time was passing speedily. Monday, the thirteenth of june, our graduation took place at the First Presbyterian Church of Englewood. Rev. Howard Anderson gave the graduating ad- dress. Following Commencement the school enter- tained us, our relations, and guests at a luncheon party in Dwight House. Our eleven years as a class at Dwight School had come to a close, 4 A , :Q If .'.f .

Class of Nineteen Fifty-seven HE school year of 1954-1955 was exciting for the soph- omore class. lfirst we elected our wonderful advisor of last year, Miss Anne Scott, to help us again this year. To her and to our president, Terry Stratton, we owe much of the credit for our successful major undertakings during the year. The first ot' our projects was giving the dance which is sponsored annually hy the Sophomore Class. The unusual decor was inspired hy Terry whom we elected to fill the post ot' chairman ol' Stalag '57. The work which was put into the dance resulted in a happy occasion for all. just heliore Christmas vacation the hallways of Dwight were decked in stars and some original geometric constructions. This was done hy Sophomore Geometry classes who gladly welcomed advice and help from Mrs. Sanger. After mid-year exams, the class started On what turned out to he an exceedingly charming production of XVinnie- the-Pooh. lt was edited and produced hy usg Penny Atwood directed it with great efficiency. Wfe ended the year hy being given our first major part in the graduation tiestivitiesg the eight hanner girls at class clay are traditionally sophomores. 3o Scand s Tcrrv Stratton. Pri Sfcllldlflf.

The Student Government is made up of two bodies one of which is the Senate. The Senate is a student council in which all legislative powers are vested: it is composed of senators chosen hy and from the student body. Miss Applegate is the advisor. The first Senate project this year was the Old Girl-New Girl Picnic and Athletic Event Day, held in conjunction with the Athletic Association. During the year, in meetings of the Senate, the honor system and its influence on study halls was discussed. The lunch problem, gum-chewing, lip-stick wearing, and smaller items came in for their share of dis- cussion. The Senate conducted several chapels throughout the year in order to discuss school problems with the student hotly. The keyword of the year was honor and it was the goal of the Student Government to strive to maintain a high stand- ard ol' honor at Dwight. 42 S X c . ,011 S XX Jil A if 5 T f N f f v J HE Dwight Cabinet is composed of the presidents of the various upper school clubsg the presidents of the freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classesg the officers of the upper school, and the faculty advisors. The function of the Cabinet is to discuss school problems. It discusses any problems that aftect the student body of the upper school. This year the Cabinet has worked quite hard. The members of the organization have completely revised the citizenship blanks. They have tried to make the blanks clearer and more concise. They have decided that the senate, class presidents, and the faculty only should mark the blanks. When they do so they should write their initials instead of the customary check. Another project which the Cabinet has undertaken is the planning of the Pingry Dance which was held at Dwight on March 19. Extra-curricular activities were discussed at great length in Cabinet, and decisions were made that will be put into force next year.

HE credit for Dzuigbl 1955 belongs not only to the literary staff, but also to all those who have contributed in countless ways to its publication. The editors would like to express their appreciation to the hard-working members of the Literary and Business boards, to the members of the classes who have submitted photographs, and especially to Mrs. Pershouse, our advisor. With our new publisher Mr. Robert W. Kelly, we have made many changes in your yearbook. In order to make it a more formal publication, we have cut out the so-called cute sayings under each Senior photograph, and have replaced them with sketches characteristic of each senior. We have eliminated the class prophecy and put a class history in its place. The school will find the greatest change in the covers of the year- books, now hard surfaced and dark blue. We have done our best and we hope that you will be pleased with the results, changes and all. 44 Penton ff I , r l 5 1 W ' , ! If Lcff in 1'lL'fJlfEllSdl7Cl'l'l Hansot.

HIS year's Penton has undergone several changes: the page size has been increased, the paper has been published by a different printer, and some new features have been added. The Penton now consists of four pages, with tive columns per page. This affords greater variety in make-up and more room for pictures. The new printer offers a wide diversity of headline type, which enhances the appearance of the paper. The seven issues have initiated such regular features as Senior Spotlight, Faculty Spotlight, and a Senate column. Witli Elizabeth I-lansot as editor, Marion Vermilye as business manager, and Miss Susan Colby as faculty advisor, the Penton staff of twenty-seven has striven to main- tain a high standard of news coverage and feature material.

Some of their meetings were de- voted to readings of favorite authors, who ran the gamut from john Galsworthy to J. D. Salingerg other meetings included the reading and discussion of the Serihhlers' own works. Mrs. Lowrie and Miss Appelgate were honorary guests at two of the meetings. The Scribhlers' Contest was again held, and this year the winners name appeared engraved on a plaque. The Stribhlers tried to arouse more interest in writing by having the winner of the tontest announted at Commencement this year. 46 wa- I Dramatic Club HIS year, as in the past years, The Dramatic Club worked on three main projetts. The Club was under the able guidance of Mrs. Edwards. The first project was an assembly performance which was pleasantly received. The second and main project was the spring production of Gir- eaudoux's The Madwoman of Chaillotf' The co-operation of The Englewood School for Boys helped us make this play a great'success. In May, members of the club performed at the annual Father-Daughter dinner. The actual production of each of these projects depended upon a committee. Each committee was in charge of a par- ticular aspect of the theater, such as make-up or props. In addition to working on its projects, the Club sent two members to the Englewood School for Boys to play the parts of Calpurnia and Portia in Shakespeare's -lulius Caesar. 47 bally Wfurts, SLl'lLf.HAl.'

Ann Brooke Kirkland, Pierfdenl. 9 1 HE Choral Club, which this year was comprised of sixty-five members, had Mr. Erwin as its director and Mrs. Harvey as its accompanist. Our schedule began early in October when we gave a musical assembly of three or four songs. Our next performance was not until December, when, in collaboration with the Dramatic Club, we provided a musical background, in the form of Gregorian chants and sexeral har- monized Christmas carols, for the tableaux of the annual Christmas Pageant. Our main performance of the year was the joint concert of the Yale Freshman Glee Club with Olll' Choral Club, given this year on March fifth in the auditorium of the Roosevelt School. Following this concert there was a dance in our gym for all the mem- bers of both Glee Clubs. An informal concert and dance with the Pingry School of Elizabeth, New jersey has recently become an annual event. This year the concert and dance were held successfully here at Dwight. Our final performance was given in May, when the Choral Club presented five or six songs at the annual Father-Daughter Dinner. -18 M Choir ,Z Ann Ritliards, l'1tmftul atm We Left lu riglvt. bfi!- lrml raLz'fElizabetl1 Wliitsiwn.

HIS year the Choir under the direttion of Mr, Erwin was composed of twenty- four girls thosen from the Choral Club for their ability to sing well in a group. Besides singing with the Choral Club in thapel, at the Pageant, and at the Yale Contert, the Choir sang alone at the Northfield Mid-winter Conference in February and at Commencement in june. ln December, the Choir sang Christmas music for the patients at the Englewood Hospital and sang two of the Pageant numbers on television. In the Spring, the Choir sang at the Mary liisher Home. The hard work has rewarded the group with a year of enjoyable and interesting singing. 49 Ltfl In ifglwl. ,rolled V--Nancy Silherl-merg.

Both groups have had many new members in addition to the two new instructors. Weekly' forty-minute sessions of our line arts group have produced the customary posters, and drawings of great variety, Miss Alber has helped us to improve appreciably the standard of our work. The traft group has had an equally suuessful year. Mem- bers have worked in a variety of mediums, including leather, tlay, and topper. It is hoped that future years will produte an even better Art Club, and that in eonsequence a greater interest in art will be developed at Dwight. 50 D. S. D. HIS year the D. S. O. has had a very active year in all three departments. Northfield, in addition to selling food at recess, has sponsored four speakers for Assembly and four Coffee Pots. The annual mid-winter conference was held at Dwight with six other schools attending: Kimberley, Barnard, Hartriclge, Kent Place, The Masters, and Vail-Deane. The Red Cross did ankexcellent job on the holiday favors for the hospitals, and also concluded a successful and profit- able drive. The Service League had a very active year. lt Sent volun- teers to Memorial House and to Englewood Hospital. These volunteers directed the sewing for the Quakers, collected Christmas stockings for a Korean Orphanage, and organized a Kitchen Shower for Memorial House. D. S. O. realized a dream this year in the all-school Chil- clren's theatre. Under Mrs, Bailey's able direction, the D. S. O. has become an increasingly important part of the school. 51 5't.md. lrff ff, ,Lulu - f- Christine Kirk- land. Anne Chase, lilizahc-th Kelly. Ruth WcAc'ks, Marion Vermilye.

HIS year, the Political Discussions Cluh made many attempts to become a more attive Organization. Every month the tluh presented a thapel, and twine during the year it presented a Thursday assembly: a movie in February and a speaker in May. Another activity of the club was keeping up a bulletin board in the hall. P. D. took some trips this year. In january several members attended a junior Unesco Conference in New York, where they lirst saw Diep, whose Dwight visit was to-sponsored by P, D, and D. S. O. In the autumn P. D. xisited the United Nations, and in the spring, Rockland State Hospital. 52 Science Club I Sandrii St. Phillip, PI'L'fjLf'L'llf 1 Lefl In riglil-Lnrnii Gilchrist, Biirbzml Walter, Stlflclril SI.

SCIENCE Club with Miss Hicks :is advisor, was founded this year for the first time in the history of' Dwight School, and its members feel that the club is a success. Although meeting only once Ll week, the club has been zible to accomplish miiny chemical and biological experiments. The object of the group is not only to perform these experiments but also to obtain some knowledge of their biickground in order to understand them more fully. The Science Club not only fulfills the desire ot' science students to work on experiments outside of those done in class but also gives to those members who have not yet chosen it science course the opportunity to orient themselves in both chemistry and biology. In the future the Science Club plans to expand its field of experimentation. 53 Lefl lo riglal, .reared -jane Roberts. judv Purcell. Elizabeth Kelly. janet Giles, Lynn Parsells, Lesv lie Pitcaithly.

The Home Economics Club HE Home Economics Club was an innovation this year and was extremely successful, Because of the size of the Home Economics room, the membership in the club was lim- ited, but this in no way detracted from the enthusiasm shown by all the members. During the hrst part of the year, the time was spent in sewing, and many beautiful articles were produced. After spring vacation the club spent its time cooking. Under the very able leadership of Miss Brunswick the Home Economics Club prospered in its first year, and hopes to become an increasingly important part of the school in the years to come. 54 Q S it ESM 3 Kami ,!

I HIS years team hopes to tontinue Dwight's extellent tennis retord. We have scheduled two games: at Kimberley and at Kent Place. Match players are chosen according to their positions on the ladder, the top three playing singles, the next four doubles. A girl may raise her position by challenging a player one, two or three plates above her. This system has kept Com- petition keen among the ten on the squad. The annual Sthool Singles Tournament has be- gun with an entry ol' twenty-seven girls. Shirley Cookman, seeded first, is defending the title she won last year from Marian Reinmund.

Twice Pep Rallies were given in the morning Chapels. As the month progressed, the squad improved greatly and the enthusiasm ol' the audience grew. In addition to theering at the hockey and bas- ketball games at Dwight, the cheerleaders went to the home football games of the Englewood Sthool for Boys and led their spettators in eheers.
