So we find ourselves writing the introduction to the conclusion of another year at Episcopal. In this book one can find the record of an eventful year, a year which brings back both pleasant and unpleasant memories. By this time we hope the unpleasant ones have been forgotten, if some good has not already come from them. Here, between the covers of this, our 1955 annual, we try to record the results-the pleasant, the worthwhile, the best. We sincerely hope that the words and pictures recorded here serve their purpose to help each reader to recall, or to introduce, the High School of 1954-55 as only the boys themselves could know it. Now the year is over and the 1955 WHISPERS is bound. We hope that neither the year nor the book will be criticized too harshly-but, instead, that both will be looked at with the eyes of those intent on learning whatever lessons each has to teach. If you are willing to look and laugh and learn, then we are not afraid to have you count our errors. 3 rf . . . . . or l er EJBMEI' .i . ajekcifer . .

In order to achieve this goal he must have sixteen credits, each course in a major field of study counting as one credit. By taking the normal four subjects per year, a boy may easily graduate in four years. Getting oneis diploma, however, is not as simple as it may sound. The studies at Episcopal are not easy. They are not meant to be. They are meant to require conscientious effort on the part of every student. Boys who will not make this effort are justly rewarded, usually in the form of having to spend five years getting the diploma that normally requires only four. Some boys never graduate at all. But those who are willing to make the effort find that a great deal may be learned merely by putting oneself in the right frame of mind. To the non-student, these studies are just a group of subjects taught at a high school in Virginia. To the students they are the personifications of the masters who teach them. What little we have learned we have learned because there was a group of patient, unselfish men who were willing to help us in our endeavors. This is a fitting time to pay tribute to them, to their unselfish devotion to the training of the boys of the school, not only in the classrooms, but in all phases of life. flgdffk Qepdftnienf The English Department forms so integral a part of our E.H.S. 'education that it has become the foundation upon which many other branches of school and later life operate. This department is notable for 'the corps of erudite gentlemen who comprise its faculty-3 it is also notorious for the English Reference Book, which is irreverently termed The Grey Gospeln by students who, regard- less of circumstances, maintain strict adherence to all its edicts, laws, and orders, which are better known as rules and definitions. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr. Ravenel, who in his few short years at the helm of the department, has molded it into the outstanding one among Southern preparatory schools. As stated by Mr- Ravenel, the objective of the English Department is to develop in each boy the ability to read with comprehension and a reasonable degree of speed, to cultivate in him an appreciation of good literature, and to give him adequate control over the tools of language so that he may speak and write effectivelyn. Believing that a little learning is a dangerous thing, the llnglishinstructors insure that pupils imbibe magnitudinous quantities of nthe Pierian spring. These imbibings begin with swallows of fundamentals under the tutelage of Mr. Ravenel and Mr. .l. C. Boggs in freshman English. 13 a Sophomore English requires the fundamental approach also, and rules and definitions must therefore be memorized once more, and the applica- tion of rules is stressed. Mr. J. R. Taylor, Mr. J. C. Boggs, and Mr- W. R. Deeble hold down the teaching end of second-year English. They teach the basic types and terminology of literature, and introduce the pupils to the works of some major authors. When a pupil reaches junior English, the functional approach is emphasized by his teachers, Mr. R. E. Karlsen. and Mr. Taylor. lt is assumed that the rules of 4'The Grey Gospel have been memorized enough by the junior year that the average idiot will have learned them. Since most E.ll.S. boys are at least average idiots, no memor- ization is required, although application of rules is still stressed considerably. English literature is mafdemafica 1-1- generally surveyed, with occasional brief looks at the historical background. Senior English offers not only a broad look at world literature, but also an introduction to the standards by which literature is judged and appreciated. Unhappily, but necessarily, the students of Mr. Karlson's and Mr. Ravenel's fourth English classes are forced to behold the damnation of their favorite pieces of literature under the critical analyses of the aforementioned pedagogues. Ultimately, however, the student becomes better able to appreciate all the literature the world has to offer. Also, there is a happy excursion into the realm of higher methods of composition 4'Don't say ain't J, which Mr- Karlsen chose to introduce thusly: If you'll pretend to be interested I'll try to look interested toof' A study of early American literature and reams of notes terminate the course. el0al fl'l'lQl'lf Mathematics at E.H.S. consists of a medley of chalk-evading and hours of long, arduous study each day. The chalk-evading is necessitated by the chalk-throwing of Mr. G. V. Tompkins, head of the Math Department, whose theory it is that a well-aimed piece of chalk helps to eliminate false concepts about mathematics. The long hours of study are necessitated by the extensive homework assignments of the mathematics professors. The six members of t-he Math Department of E.H.S. are all top-notch men in their fields, who are more than capable of teaching anything from arithmetic to differential and integral calculus. On account of the necessity for a broad knowledge of mathe- matics in college and in later life, four mathematics credits are required for graduation from E.H.S. As Thomas Edison once said, Genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspirationv. Most of the perspiration which is worked up by the pupils of Mr. L. M. McLaughlin, Mr. L. R. Emmons, and Mr. R. K. Butler in Hrst year algebra comes as the result of learning the fundamentals of mathematics. The fundamentals learned in first year algebra are employed in the more elaborate and complex studies of second year algebra. Under the tutoring of Messrs. Callaway, Emmons. and McLaughlin, the students of second algebra learn the theory and systems of quadratic equations. exponents. progres- sions, the binomial theorem. and logarithms. When second year algebra is completed. an entirely new ty pe of math is taken ups- geometry. Geometry is the world of squares. circles. triangles. and other polygons. ln geometry Messrs. C. V. Tompkins and P. ll. Callaway are successful in teaching the Pythagorean and the four hundred and nineteen other accompanying theorems and corollaries. Every student in fourth mathematics is required to take trigonometry for the first half of the school K year. After finishing trig, each boy must choose between complicated numbers or confusing figures tadvanced algebra or solid geometryl, depending upon which is required by the college that he is planning to enter. Both lVlr. Emmons and Mr. Walker attempt to cram the fundamentals of trig into some of the non-Euclidian minds, with a great deal of success. During the second half of the year. Mr. Emmons handles the figures, while Mr. Walker takes care of the numbers. For the real mathematical geniuses we have fifth and sixth math courses. Both of these, which include analytic geometry and differential and in- tegral calculus, are under the direction of Mr. D. S. Walke1'. ncienf ofanguagefi Shakespeare had little Latin and less Creekf' but the modern student, as he is unlikely to be a second HSwan of Avon. would he ill advised not to take advantage of the comprehensive Ancient Languages program here on the Hill. As well as its being a fine training ground for the mind. who but a Latin or Creek scholar could appreciate e pluribus unzun, lioi polloi, or non illegilinzis carborundum? The pedagogucs of this all-important phase of an E.H.S. education are Mr. R. P. Williams and Mr. R. L. Whittle. lVlr. Williaiiis. who is completing a half century of teaching here, is alone but excellent in the teaching of the three Greek courses offered here. If a student has completed three years under Mr. Williams, he has read Plato and Homer in the original and has done considerable prose composition. Mr. Willialiis also overlaps into the Latin division of the department. of which he is the head. ln this field knowledge of forms and basic grammar are drilled into the student until he has become thoroughly grounded in the basic features of the language, and then ancient authors are taken up in order of difficulty. Considerable attention is 3 . 15 payed to Latin derivatives and Latin cliches on the top of each page quicken the student,s interest. ln first Latin, Messrs. R. P. Williams, M. F. Williams, and R. K. Butler pound conjugations, declensions, syntax, and vocabulary into the zealous students, who wait eagerly for the time when they can peruse the stirring commentaries of Julius Caesar. This comes in Latin ll, under Mr. R. P. Williams, Mr. Murray, and Mr. Whittle. In Mr. Whittle's nearly 50 years of Latin he has led, Latin I having been conquered, many a student against the Belgae and the Nervii. This course is the cornerstone of Latin, in which refinements are added to the foundation gained in First to enable the student to handle Cicero under Mr. Whittle in Latin Ill. Mr. R. P. Williams teaches fourth, fifth, and sixth Latin to anyone who qualifies, and they are rewarding courses to all who reach this level of proficiency. These higher courses as taught by Mr. Williams, who as we have shown is equally at home in Latin, Greek, or English, cover poetry and drama, and encourage the student to read Latin and Greek on his own. The Launcelot Minor Blackford Medal for excel- lence in Latin is presented each year at Finals. Wo eI I'L CBlI6'l.l'l?Llag'e5 The student who aspires to learn a modern language will find a choice selection from which to choose: French, German, and Spanish. As talented professors are essential to good language courses, E.H.S. is fortunate in having a group of highly capable and fluent instructors, who in- doctrinate their classes with equally fluent propa- ganda concerning the boundless merits of their respective adopted fatherlands. The modern languages are especially important today because of the increased stress placed on foreign affairs. The excellent background a boy receives is also a tremendous help in college, if he wishes to con- tinue his study. The seniors who take Spanish are fortunate to have as their instructors Mr. M. F. Williams for first Spanish and Mr. H. K. Murray for first, second, and third Spanish. These Spanish courses are counted among the hardest- in school, and it is very rare indeed that any of the senors are over 90. The course emphasizes grammar and sentence construction the first two years, but light reading is included, and by the third year students are prepared to brave the rigors of the heavier reading that comprises almost the entire course. Additional excitement is added to the course by Mr. Murrayls excursions into acid sarcasm. The French courses are instructed by lVl. Deeble in first and M. Harnly in first, second, and third. As in Spanish, the first two years are passed quickly in learning the bare essentials of grammar tsuch as how to say hi-fin in Frenchj and reading. The third year is usually spent repeating second French. Twelve months later in the third French students begin to read higher literature. The glory of the course is somewhat enhanced by the kind offer of lVlr. Harnly to conduct, for a slight fee, yearly tours of Europe, during which the lucky travelers soak up an intoxicating overdose of culture. The German course is smaller and is comprised chiefly of future engineers and scientists. Herr Whittle brightens up the course with frequent witticisms in Deutsch, and a consistent good humor. A well rounded offering of grammar and reading is given for each of the two years of German that are taught. German is probably the most interest- ing modern language because of the strong resemblance it bears to English. This year, in the last term, a new idea has been put into application. The boys who take languages have been placed together at special dining room tables. Nature, with a little assist from masters in charge, has taken its course, and the students have gained the invaluable experience of actually making a speaking acquaintance with their languages. , .iwiafory Napoleon once said NWhat is history but a fable agreed upon? The Episcopal History Department however. has decided that it is a fable that should be learned by heart, as all alumni of Mr. Daniells American History will testify. ln Mr. Walden's Ancient and Medieval History and Modern European History the stress is on Mgiving the student the leading ,facts of history and explaining the importance of various political and social institutions. Notebooks, map work, and memory are necessary, and any student- who passes these two courses has a full picture of the growth of the Old World. Once a week this period is devoted to the study of current events, when the students study Our Times, a student-level publica- tion covering the international scene for the past week that attempts to explain political and social institutionsi' to the student. In Mr. Deeble's English History the student begins with Paleolithic man and by the end of the second term has traced the development of Great Britain to the eve of the First World War, paying particular attention to the trends and underlying causes of the great movements in English history. ln the third term World War l is covered quickly, and the Hall's Iron out of Calvary, is adopted as QIOCLl fl'l'L2l'li A A 17 the text for World War ll. This interpretative history book is supplemented by factual Govern- ment films on W.W. ll, and the team is perfect for the nine-week study of World War Il. Whereas lVlr. Deeble's policy is to give big tests at two-week intervals, Mr. Daniel, the 52-year veteran and head of the History Department is notorious for his detailed daily American History quizzes. During the initial two terms, American students are quizzed on an average of four times a week, and during the third term, when they study government, there is always a test awaiting the now-not-so-innocents. Mr. Daniel covers the development of the original thirteen colonies into a powerful nation in detail during the first two terms, putting special stress on the names and dates in our history. The text for this is Muzzeyis History of Our Country, an excellent text that is replaced during the third term by Magruderis American Government, a study of the structure of our government at present. In all the history courses extra-credit parallel is allowed, and many a student avails himself of this opportunity to pursue further facets of history merely touched on in class that are of particular interest to him, while adding points to his term grade. Taken as a whole, the history courses of Episco- pal provide a rare opportunity for an interested student to gain a wide knowledge of the history of the world and a solid foundation for specialization in college. cience The science courses at Episcopal are among the best offered, formidable though they may seem. In the venerable tradition of Archimedes, Galileo, and Newton now move the right honorable Messrs. Latham, Tompkins, and Emmons with their small but deadly array of the sciences: chemistry, physics, biology, and general science. Physics, as taught by Mr. Latham, is the most inclusive of the sciences. lt combines a frightening conglomeration of general knowledge, electronics, automation, plain motion, force, crackerbarrel philosophy, and bi-weekly experiments into one big course. A comprehensive study in every con- ceivable realm of physics is completed before the year is out. General Science is also taught by Mr. Latham. Essentially it is a junior physics that is less com- plicated and considerably more general. Ceneral,' means etymology fas distinguished from entomol- ogyl, everything listed under physics, biology, and frequent lessons in applied economics. Biology is taught by Mr. Emmons. Probably the hardest course in school, it is a college-level study of all the myriads of life forms from protozoa to cordata. The course includes weekly excursions to the lab, where the strong-stomached students dissect frogs, snakes, and other little beasties. this o W i 1 V . XWRLN A The joy ol the Science llepartment. though. is Mr. 'lvs liomli factory, Prodigal prodigies are here introduced to the dangers of flying chalk. the calculated risks of mixing certain chemicals. and the inadyisaliility of forgetting to 'Lconchw on lfriday night. l,ike the hoys in Biology, the hoys in Chemistry are always over 90 on each year's percentile test lthc rating per 100 average pupilsl, and inevitalily two or three of the lirighter hoys in the class turn up with lllfls. Also. the course is interspersed with spontaneous outhursts of worldly wisdom and old-guard philosophy llietwecn spontaneous emissions of flying chalkl. The fundamental objective of Mr. T's chemistry is to leach students to think for themselves. to think creatively rather than to memorize assigned material like a parrot. lnclusivcly. thc science department tries to instil in the minds of the students a desire to achieve an understanding and appreciation of the related and multitudinous alistruse messes of our contem- porary technical civilization. ln this endeavor, it succeeds admirahly. Pls ak Dk There are three minor fields of study which were not dealt with in the preceding ser-tion. Two of them deal with the more cultural side of studiess music appreciation and art appreciation. Both of these courses are very ably taught hy lVlr. lVl. l7. Williams The third minor field is a series of courses under the title of Sacred Studies. livery lioy is required to take a Sacred Studies course each year. hut the classes meet only once a week. The courses range from a study of the stories in the Old Testament for freslnnen to a high-level course in Christian ethics for seniors. No mention of studies at lf.ll.S. would be complete without a look at the principal theatre of the student's own labors-the study hall. Here, confined to his cheerless desk for two and a quarter hours every night and several periods during the day. glared at hy a series of unkind masters and monitors, the weary student grinds away at his lessons. Experience has shown this torture to be unpleasant but necessary. in order to maintain the high level of work that the school requires. No one enjoys study hall. hut most hoys will admit they would have a hard time forcing themselves to spend the same amount of effort if left to their own devices. NA' I -. - .fQ,.....-..

' Maintenance Of all the thankless jobs at the High School, the most thankless are those of the staff-those people who are responsible for the ordered and carefree lives which we, the students, lead. Seldom does one stop to think of the many members of the staff, necessary to the school as the buildings themselves. At the head of the staff, the man ultimately responsible for the actions of all others, is the school's Business Manager, Mr. William E. Bobbitt, who has, since coming to the school in 1950, effected innumerable improvements, both in the maintenance of the grounds and buildings and in theefficiency of those who work under him. To live we must eat. Upon this brief statement rests the task of Miss Ina Young. Serving as dietician, she has tried each year to bring to the students and the faculty a little better food prepared a little better than the year before. She must have succeeded, too, for fatalities this year reached an all-time low. One of the busiest places in school, especially during the winter term, is the school infirmary. We are most fortunate in having both a wonderful nurse and an excellent doctor. Miss Annie has been here since 194-4, and has learned through the years exactly how to handle the boys-from the very sick down to the numerous goldbrickers, and the skill with which she handles the students is amazing. Q Dr. Roberts, one of the finestuphysicians in the area, is as skilled at treating injuries and serious epidemics as he is at dealing with common colds and sore throats. His diagnoses are almost infal- lible. This year marks the tenth anniversary of Mrs. Hoover's arrival on the Hill. During this time she has served as secretary under three different headmasters. Under each she has done an excellent job, and it is debatable whether or not the school could get along without her. Among the various services she performs for the students, .perhaps most important to them is her job as mail carrier, for it is Mrs. Hoover who picks up the mail every morning and brings it to the school. Another very important staff member is Mrs. Bell, the librarian. ln her hands rests the running of the library-including such tasks as checking out books and keeping the magazine and newspaper rack in order, but probably her most valuable function is as counselor for the students. There are not many boys in school who have not, at one time or another, gone to her for advice of some kind-where to find a certain book, where to find a short book, where to find books on some specific subject-. Her services to the school and the boys have been many. The job of school matron, including supervision of the laundry, falls on Mrs. Ricks. It is to her that boys take their complaints about clothes that didn't come back from the laundry, and to her they take clothes that need mending. In both cases she does all within her power to satisfy the requests, and the majority of the time she succeeds. Billy Boothe, the Secretary of the Old Boys' Association, has become a familiar figure around the school. His jobs are many and varied, including being an assistant coach of the track team. His most important function, however, is keeping in touch with the alumni, and planning the various Old Boys' dinners, the Homecoming activities, and other affairs that bring them back to the Hill. There is only one person left to mention. As the saying goes, he may be last but certainly not least. He is t-he man directly responsible for the upkeep of the school. He and 'his boys have an unending t-ask, for the maintenance of the grounds and buildings is an almost perpetual job. The man of whom we speak with such genuine respect is Arthur Long, who asked us to thank: All my boys who help me play the unending game. 21 Earn! of jnuafeea MR MR. NORBORNE BERKELEY f............

Smtih, Mr. Walden, Mr. Callaway, Mr. Walker, Mclfryrle. The Honor Committee was founded in the spring of 1949 to uphold the most cherished tradition of the High School-the Honor Code. The committee is made up of six students and three faculty members-a student serves as chairman. The committee has a two-fold purpose: to help the students understand and respect the importance of honor, and to take action against those who violate the honor system. Essential to the successful functioning of the system is the support of each and every student. As long as this support continues the system will endure, a tradition of which the school may be justly proud. onifom Being appointed a monitor is usually considered about the biggest honor that can come to a boy at Episcopal, because the appointment postulates a recognition, by both faculty and student body, of a boy's maturity and sense of responsibility. To these chosen boys, aside from the duty of aiding the faculty in the difiicult task of guiding and disciplining the younger and less responsible boys, there comes the well-earned respect of the whole school, and the true reward of virtue-satisfaction for the sake of virtue itself. The monitors are. in a sense, a self-perpetuating group. Acting as big brothers. they help the younger boys to mature and to discover a higher sense of values than they could otherwise be expected to have. and often eventually to become monitors themselves. Certainly the most responsible position of any boy' in school is that of the Head Monitor. yy'ho--'- assisted by the Senior Monitors-not only must help with the guiding of the younger boys. but must set a standard for the monitors themselves to live up to. The extent of the responsibility carried by this position has been demonstrated in past years when. unfortunately. an occasional Head lVlonitor has failed to measure up fully to his job. and the quality' of the whole school has been lowered. This year. however. Tom Rand has shown by his able leadership that the opposite is also true. that a good Head Monitor can make his influence felt in a general raising of quality through- out the school. Un the whole. this year's monitors have proved themselves the equals. if not the superiors. of any group on the Hill recently. They have demonstrated exemplary conduct on their own part: and it may be truly said that they have upheld the guiding prineiples of the sehoolff Mbravely. faithfully. and happily. ll:-llryrle.

This unfortunate circumstance is due to the fact that a large number of boys who were planning to graduate this coming ,lune have fallen by the wayside during one of their three or four years at Episcopal. Fortunately, however, all colleges do not require that small piece of paper which Mr, Thomsen hands out on a day in early June to the more successful members of the 'asenior classw, and therefore a large number of boys who do not actually graduate nevertheless go on to college. It is for all the boys leaving the Holy Hill this year- graduates or not-fthat this introduction is Written. All those leaving will take with them innumerable memories, and for posterity here are some of the ones which will probably be longest remembered: - Who will forget the hurricanes during the fall term, especially Hazel? Who will forget studying by candlelight in the dining room that night because Hazel had deprived us of the modern convenience of electric lights? And which of us will forget the ultimatum concerning all-night crannning for exams, and the consequent nocturnal wanderings of Mduly authorized representatives looking for those who still insisted on studying into the wee hours of the morning? And which of the seniors can say that he did not light with Egypt against the masses from Dalrymple Hall in the March epidemic of water-fights? Which one can forget the bridge games down in Egypt with the boysw? How many boys were forced to grow beards when the shaving cream 'gbombsa' were outlawed? Each of us will carry away from Episcopal his own distinct memories. Some of us will carry away a diploma. But all of us will take with us the knowledge that we are leaving the school at least a little closer to manhoodg that, though our grades may not show it. we have gained considerable book learningg and that the Episcopal High School has given us many valuable experiences not promised in the catalog.

Showing tremendous improvement since last year in football. he was one of the few boys on the team who played first- string both ways --offense and defense. He was also Alternate-captain of track this spring. and Mr. Tompkins will testify to his ability. particularly as a quarter miler. A second thing that Homer will be remembered for was his way with the women. Without doubt one of the smooth- est operators in school. Malcolm managed to come up with a new queen every year. Wl1f'n other boys wanted a good- looking date. Malcolm was always the one to whom they went. A fast man. on the track and off. Malcolm will succeed in whatever he undertakes. wc feel sure.

Although lfraxton has not become con- spicuously talented in any one field. he has achieved some measure of success in sev- eral. Prevented by his size from playing var- sity football. he nevertheless managed to play on the J.V.'s-both in football and tennis. ln the classroom. like almost all his fel- low students. he had his troubles-the worst of which was suffering through two straight years of Mr. Karlson's 4th English -. but he has emerged nevertheless a candidate for graduation. Outside the classroom liraxtontyyas not overly active. perhaps because he needed the time for studying.

This bearer of a traditional High School name has turned out to be as colorful a personality as any of his illustrious fore- bears. Tui has made a name for himself as a Great Lover. if not a very successful one. Using the motto. lt is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. he has ardently'bursued innumerable females. both local talent and not so local: but always his initial triumphs have proved only temporary. and he has lost out in the enl to some other would-be snowy-king. Net these disappoint- ments arc not a total loss. for they add a touch of authenticity to his dramatic per- formances: as an actor. 'l'ui is one of the best. l,i5s xoice is also raised to good effect in church. where he is one of the few Choir soloists who can be heard past the first row. lt is sttft' to predict that 'l'ui will go far. and not just geographic- ally. 33 4 Ju ANGUS lVlURlJOCH MCRRYDE l4l0 Forest Hills Boulevard Durham, North Carolina Fourlli Year I ,lIl'lilI son Honor Committee.

Angus is one of those boys about whom we can't say enough. He has managed not only to participate in almost every thing that goes on on the Hill. lnut to he a leader in almost everything that he has done. Ili athletics he was one of the lresl allsaround performers on the llill this year -a eool qllarterlwaek. a sharpshooting lxasketliall forward, and an unexpectedly outstanding tniler in his first attempt at track. ln addition. he was elected Presi- dent of the Athi.-tie Xssoeiation. Looking at the list ahove. one can see that Moo- Cowl' was a pretty lvusy lnoy, all nmeh so that sometimes he had lroulvle finding time for his studies: hut though he earried several of the hardest eourses in school, he managed to do well in all of them. His election as President of the Senior Class is a fitting climax to a successful school career. 34 is-as xl ALBERT THEODORE MOLLEGEN, JR.

Ted came to Episcopal all the way from his home in the Seminary-a distance of at least one hundred yards. Since then Ted has had the pleasure of seeing his name acquire squattf-r's rights on the High l.ist. At last report he was ticd with another lmoy for second highest average in the senior class-somewhere up around his usual 93 or 94- average. Ted added still further to his academic distinctions hy graduating this year with advanced standing. Hut one must not think that 'fled is a hookworm. He has participated in a wide variety of school activities, and found time on the side for pursuing his pet hohhy of being a radio Wham .

Although harred from athletics hy a recurrent hack injury, he has participated in almost every other activity that the school has to offer, as can he seen hy the above list. As far as popularity is concerned. it may he noted that f'Chuh', not only participated in, but was a leader of many of the activities and organizations, capping his distinctions with perhaps the greatest honor his fellow students can bestow. that of lveing elected Chairman of the Honor Committee. ln this cheerful Charlestonian the school is losing a leader whom it will find hard to replace.

Although these things have taken much of his time, he has still managed to do well in his studies, and to take an aetive role in other school affairs. To anything he does llan brings an attitude of determination to do it right. 'llhis and his firm devotion to principle are evident to all who know him, and have led his fellow students to entrust him with membership on the Honor Committee. Our only regret is that he leaves so soon. be eyen more of a success in later life. 38 fi . i . .awww Axim H 'H' W'Ul'l ' ' SAMPEI, WILSON SMITH. JK.

There is a distinct I't'St'IIllJl3I1C0 he- tween these two military-minded brothers. Perhaps most prominent is the avid interest that both show in Army life. So great is this interest that, just like his brother, Frank wc-nt to cram school two months last winter to prepare for the Waist Point exams. Another thing for which both hroth- ers were known was attire. The 'Award- rohos' of both included more military wear than civilian dress. If Frank goes to 'l'he l'oint next year, he will he in the extra- ordinary position of having a hrother who is a first rlassman - sand must he oh:-yed!

Despite the unfortunate circumstance of being from the city of the University , the Demon has acquired as many honors at Hthe High School as a boy could possibly desire. He has consistantly averaged out of eighth period. He played first string on the Varsity football team this yearg and he is the best tennis player to be seen at the Hill in a long while, being number one'on the team for the last four years, and a captain of the team for three of those four. He is extremely popular and was elected Vice- President of the senior class. Between sea- sons, Demon sits in Egypt heating weeds'i unmercifully and playing 'master- ful bridge.

X3 ff j . ind r raduat The term undergrads refers to those boys who are not graduating this June. There are a few who are going on to college, but the great majority of them will return for from one to four more years. Here then is where to find the material for the future. Here is where the leaders of the next few years will come from. The boys who appear in the following pages will be graduates themselves some day. A great many of them,will make a name for themselves. Some will become stars in the world of sports, and the ones with exceptional prowess and leadership will become the captains of the various teams. Others will prove themselves in different fields: they will find their names well up on the High Listg they will exhibit their literary talents by winning the school reading or declaiming contests, and perhaps become ofiicers in a Literary Societyg they will show great ability in extracurricular activities such as dramatics or publicationsg and a very few of the boys who show an extra- ordinary sense of responsibility and capacity for leadership will become senior or even head monitors. This then is the future for the uundergradsv. Upon their shoulders is the burden of continuing the age-old traditions of the school. Up to them is the future protection of our sacred Honor Code, and its successful functioning. lt is their duty to keep school spirit at its peak, to instill in all incoming new boys the love for the school that we, as rats, had instilled in us. We, the graduating class, leave this burden of responsibility to the boys whose pictures follow-the uundergradsn. LEE SANFORD AINSLIE, JR. 1351 Neal Street .

Sherrill was without a douht the unsung hero of this meet.

He. however. told Mr. Taylor and Wise that he was going to lfvhut now. Early? win and he kept his word. Thus, a gold champion- ship medal went to him. The lVlaroon's other championship, Alternate- Captain Sandy Wise. could not be called a surprise. A 103-pound champion in 1953, Sandy was favored by the coaches to win this year's 112-pound bracket. ln the final match Sandy turned over his opponent and pinned him in 49 seconds of the second round. This pin was the only one scored in the eleven championship houts of the evening. As a result of his win and his pin, Sandy was chosen by the referees and coaches to he the recipient of the mahogany and bronze plaque for The Most Outstanding Wrestler in the Metro- politan Tournamentf' a reward never before won hy an Episcopal wrestler. A fine climax to an even finer career. B-SQUAD WRESTLING The B-Squads first meet was with Southern The hf.lhflIIJf'fu pins Sinijzson loolfs anxinux High Schoolis varsity at Episcopal. Witli wins by Co-Captains Chip Vlfoodrum and Mark Gibson plus those of Boopa,' Pritchard, Hobby Anderson, Ray York. and Bing Sherrill, the baby lVlaroons rolled over their opponents 37-8. A week later, the B-Squad played host to a strong Wakefield Varsity. Co-Captain Woodruni, Bobby Husted. and York provided the team's only points as the lVlaroons were defeated 29-12. Wakefield still proved to be a nemesis two weeks later when they downed 24-9. The Washington and Lee and St. Albans Bw meets proved to be the season's most exciting. The former was dropped by the lVlaroons l7-22. but the latter. the season's finale. they won 20-18. Regular winners in both were the lVlaroon's Co- Captains and York and Sherrill. lt was, however.

The 1955 lfpiscopal soccer team was marked hy an abundance of great talent that had prospects ol posting one of the finest records ever achieved by an E.H.S. soccer squad. Though this is not immediately apparent from the 3-T record. it must he noted that the margin of seven of these games was only one goal. The team showed great ahility to control the hall and generally command the field, but showed, except on one occasion, a startling inahility to punch the ball through the goal. The opposition outscored E.H.S. hy more than 5025 of the total output. Heyward llamilton lcd the team in scoring from both inside and center forward. His big day was against St. jamesf hut he was outstanding all season and will be a great asset to the team next year. Another returning star is Co-captain Sewall Tyler. who, while he has a fine shot. is particularly noted for his violent attack and all- rounding supporting game. l ms'r Hou: SIIIIIIIIUII, f,lIlL'f'S.

Ritchie. s Uutfianlfefl by Wfhe High School The other captain, Tom Rand, is also more outstanding for passes and defense work than shooting, although it was his perfect shot that won the St. james, game in the second overtime. Another real star is the left wing, Jim Stofer. He is not noted for any one thing, but rather for everything. He scored only one less goal than Hamilton, was a line passer, dribbler, and defensive player. His abilities received recognition when he was named to the All-Metropolitan Soccer Team, the fourth E.H.S. athlete ever to receive this honor. E.H.S. dropped its opener at Greenway 2-4 to St. Albans in an overtime, but rebounded the following week to edge Sidwell Friends' 2-1. Hamil- ton scored both goals against St. Albans, while Tyler and Stofer shared the second game honors. Then Episcopal traveled north to St. Jamesi School, which they defeated 6-5 in a double over- time. Hamilton got four goals and Tom Rand booted in the winning tally from twenty-five feet out. Next the booters knocked off previously unbeaten St. Albans 2-1 on Tyleris and Stoferis goals in an overtime. After this big win, Episcopal fell into a slump and was beaten in the next five encounters 2-1, 5-U. 2-1, 2-1, 3-0 with ,lim Stofer scoring all Maroon goals. They were beaten twice by Mont- gomery Blair. twice by Landon, and by Sidwell Friendsi. Tuie plays Tootsie The serious Englishman On February 26, Woodberry Forest, previous winner of one, and Episcopal battled across a bog named Greenway Field. All Episcopal's finesse was lost in the mud, and dispite the great efforts of all the Episcopal team, and Randis goal, Woodberry emerged a 2-1 victor. All played well, and the game was a credit to both schools. JUNIOR VARSITY SOCCER This yearis soccer Junior Varsity, like the Varsity, really was a much finer team than their 1-3 record indicates. The team was mostly made up of the boys out for soccer for the first time, and their resulting inexperience was a major factor in their early losses. In their last two games they began to work as a unit and many of coach Deebleis charges appeared as fine Varsity prospects for the coming years. 91 Bantam Ben 11111 mlers .'

With six returning letlermen and several 'Lrat wondersf, the track team came through with a Hne record. Much of the credit for the fine spirit and sportsmanship goes to Jim Cathcart-, captain and star of this yearls team. Not only did Squeedunks break the broad jump record with a mighty leap of 22'1 , but he also tied the 100-yard dash record at 10 seconds flat. lle was also the best man in the 220-yard dash and a member of the relay team. Malcolm Matheson. alternate captain, followed right behind Catheart in every meet and dashed close to the 4-4.0 record. L'lVlale', also ran the 100-yard dash behind Cathcart. and was anchor man on the relay team. Aside from these two fine leaders, the credit for the fine performances of the season must be placed in the hands of llead Coach Tompkins and his assistants: Mr. Walden. Mr. McLaughlin, and Mr. Boothe. 92 .

Dudley, and Sherrill scoring 1-2-3 in many shot-put events and Parrott and Nielsen both vieing for the discus record, the point total for these two events was tremendous. Bird added points in the discus and the javelin, and White was consistently good in the shot put and the discus. Meltryde and Cooke, two other long-distance javelin throwers. were both versatile-Cooke running in the low hurdles and as a substitute in the mile relay. and lVlcBryde the leading miler, who was an early season threat to break the record.

Coalter Paxton. a hard worker: Andrew Hanes, a promising athleteg and Robbie Harrison. a future star, were the leading candidates in the pole vault. In the high jump. Dan Smith and Sandy Ainslie tied for first in several meets and were always to be counted on. Smith not only was a high-jumper but he was second in the 220 and ran many fast quarters for the mile relay. Ainslie broad-jumped 20 feet and also substituted in the mile relay. Fred Wood worked hard at the broad jump, as did Madison and Hart in the 100. Rinehart, Baker and Gibson dominated the low and high hurdles, while McMullan and Davenport look like future greats in the half. Letterman Jim Pinkney has become one of the most consistent runners on the Hill with his brilliant 440-yard dashes. In the mile Tom Rand and ,lay Witt. a versatile track letterman for two years, provided stiff competition for opponents. Charlie Fitzgerald and Mason Green fought all the way in the half mile, with Mason usually coming out in front. Two weeks after the end of Spring vacation. on April 9. 1955. the Maroons met their first opposi- tion. a powerful Mercersburg Academy team from Pennsylvania. After a see-saw battle in which each team gained seven first places the invaders won by a 64-58 score. Mercersburg, one of the better teams on the East coast, came to Episcopal expecting an easy victory. That afternoon when they left they had acquired a bit more respect for the scrappy E.H.S. team, which had shown the promise of a great season to come. Squee- dunksw Cathcart. E.H.S. Captain, led the home team with a spectacular performance. His first event of the afternoon, the 100-yard dash, yielded him only a secondg and being upset over this, he broke the 31-year old school broad jump record with a mighty leap of 22'2 . and then took first place in the 220 in 22.1 seconds, only .1 second off the record. Malcolm Matheson, team Alternate Captain. reeled off a 51.8 quarter mile to win a first. Fitzgerald took a second in the 880. Ed Dudley came through in the shot put with a 46'1 93 4 fi x .wr .

In the high jump, the two aces, Ainslie and Smith, took up where they left oli last year to win a tie for Hrst at 5'f'l5ifi . Madison, Episc0pal's latest Hrat wonderf' took a third in the 220. Six days later E.H.S.'s chief local rival, George Washington High School of Alexandria, took a 65Uf3-47W contest from the Maroon thincladsg hut this meet was not as gloomy as the score indicates. Again the team was faced with one of the hestg and the score could have gone either way. GW. took 8 of the 13 first places, but Cathcart was again the individual star, winning the 220 and the broad jump, and pulling up to take a Hrst in the 100 in 10.5. 4'lVlalcsi' lV1atheson made his opponents eat dust again in the 440, and took a third in the 100 and 220. 1n the 880 Mason Green took a third. In the mile Angus lVlcBryde. the Hfiying cow,', pulled steadily up from the rear ranks to capture a Second place, and almost pull an upset win. The winning time was 4:4-7.7, and Angii was only a few feet behind. This was one of the hest performances of the day. The jumping boys, Ainslie and Dan Smith, again added their usual 8 points. This time they tied for first place at 5'9 . Nielsen heaved the platter 125' to take a second. In the pole vault Colt Paxton and Andrew Hanes tied for second. On April 23 came two of the Maroonls traditional foes, Randolph-Macon Academy and St. Christo- pheris School, full of hope for victory over this squad which had dropped its first two meets. These illusions of theirs were soon shattered as the big li thinclads immediately took over, determined to win this one for Mr. T. Al the end of the meet the score stood: 1l.H.S. 78, R.lVI.S. 4115 and St. Christo- pheris 1715. It was a smashing victory, and one needed greatly to get the team over the hump.

Vlalcolm Matheson led all the way in the 440. and turned in a time only .4 off the school record: 50.9 seconds. ,lim Pinkney. getting hack into the groove after an illness, fought oll all contenders in the stretch with a vicious smile to take a second hchind lVlathc' son. ln the 080.

As the meet progressed, Cathcart and Matheson took first and second in the 100g the time. 10.2. Baker got third in the 180 low hurdles and the 120 high hurdles. ln the longer races W. Sz L. evened the score and took a slim lead, despite terrific per- formances by the Maroons. The mile saw Moo Cow McBryde run his best race to date and wind up with a tight second in 4:47. Malcs,' was beaten only by inches in the 44-0. The winning time, 51 flat. Mason Green also ran his best race and took a second in 2:06. The last lap of that race was touch-and-go all the way. Cathcart burned out a fast 220 in 22.7 to win. Bruce Rinehart pole- vaulted 10'3 , his best of the year, and took a second. Before the final event it was evident that W. 81 L. was going to wing but the mile relay, consisting of Ainslie, Pinkney, Smith and Matheson see-sawed back and forth before downing W. Sz L. with a 3:36 clocking. Matheson and Smith each ran extra-scorching legs in this relay to bring the score at the end of the day to: E.H.S. 55, W. Sz L. 58. It was a tough one to loseg but state high champions W. 81 L. knew that they had met a game opponent. As this is written, the middle of the season has passed and the record stands 1 win and 3 losses. The record, however, doesn't show how close the meets actually were. One meet was lost by 3 points, one by 9, and one by IVJ-all to very highly regarded teams in this section of the country. The Maroons have not been outclassed, they have just been barely outscored. Several long-standing records have been broken, and several more are doomed to fall.

With this years Junior team to draw from, it looks as though E.ll.S. track teams in the future will he exceptionally strong. Although the juniors have won only one lover St. Alhanst while losing two Ito Wakefield and W. S LJ, they must not be judged on the hasis of wins and lossesg they face one of tht- roughest schedules in school. Outstanding this year are the two leaders: Julian Baker, Captain. in the hurdles and dashesg and Landon Hilliard, Alternate Captain, in the dashes and weight events. Tom Davenport stands out in the 660-yard run and the shot-putg Saunders Mid- yette in the high jump and broad jump. Julian Baker and Robbie Harrison can he counted on for points in the hurdles and pole vault. respectively. As a matter of fact, all of the boys have heen called on to compete in Varsity meets. With two meets left to go, the Junior track team seems to he heading for a very successful season.

C113 swilzgs and mix es .4 hit for Hull 1'11ylorx1rer1I.s I Among the third year Varsity lettermen was Co- Captain Bill Pixton, an expert pitcher. Bill had a great variety of pitehes. two of which he liked hest. Of these, his fast curve hall was the most outstanding, hut his purely fast hall ran a very elose seeond. Although he got off to a rather poor start. as the season progressed, Rillis arm got hetter. His spirit kept gaining and, when the warmtr weather arrived, Bill's pitching was true to form. The lVlaroon's other eo-eaptain. lid lfox. is a seeond-year monogram winner. Last season lid eompleted the hattery as he stood hehind the plate for Pixton. llaving an ahundanee of younger eatehers and no first haseman. Coaeh Taylor. in his seeond year as head eoaeh. switehed lid to hrst. As the only letternlan in the infield. whit-li was eomposed of three sophomores. lrld heeame the take-eharge guyil. His great steadiness kept the throws to first sack ever potent. Next in the line of praise is senior eenter fielder .loe Dunn. loe's play in the outfield was exeeptional as he went through the entire season without eom- mitting a single error. .loe was not only good in the outfield. hut also at the plate and on the hases. At mid-season, Joe had a halting average of .500 and at its end. this average was over the .4100 mark. Onee on hase, ,loe was a demon as he lead the team in stolen hases. Sewall Duke Tyler was another outstanding outfielder. one of the few team memhers to he a three-year letter winner. Duke might not have held the highest hatting honors, hut he was the teamis leading man at the plate. He had the unique quality of heing ahle to effectively get hit hy a pitched hall or at least to get a walk. Gus Allen was the team's utility and roving out- fielder. No position in the field was too mueh for Gus as he often suhstituted for the various tielders. As a regular. he held down the left field position and heeame the squad's pineh hitter.

Smile fades . . . lipiscopalls other front-line pitcher. and showed a great deal of promise for years to come. Compared to Bill. Bob has no speed at all: however. he utilizes his slow ball and makes it curve from one end of the field to the other. This year. liobis only trouble seemed to be a tendency to tire in the late innings. but. when one remembers that Bob is only a sophomore. this is easily understood. Completing the infield were a group of young boys. Trying for the pitcher's post throughout the year were Bill Percy. Louis Gump. and Russ Roberts. This position was the teamis strongest and will remain thus for the next two years at least. Dave llall was the only new member of the infield who did not have to worry about his position. lle guarded his third base sack so well that he was never replaced throughout the season. His left side. the short stop position, was forever in doubt as Bobby Cathcart and jimmy Watts regularly substituted for each other. Of thcsc two. Bobby had the slight edge on account of his hitting ability. The second sack was another position that was constantly in doubt for one could never tell whether or not Pickslay Cheek would be eligible to play. When his studies did keep him away from the diamond. Bob Taylor was the boy to take over. 100 Everyone awaits II liit if To deep despair Condolences from Big Al The outfield substitutes were headed by Walter Klingman, a junior, who switched throughout the season into and out of the first string berth in left Held. Walter was a very steady player who will, no doubt. be a regular first string member next year. joining him in the substituting was a new boy, jack Syer. ,lack had a very powerful arm and Coach Taylor may use him next year as a pitcher. This year's team seemed to have a definite pattern that they fell into in each game. They would be able to hold their opponents for the first two or three innings and, then, because of inexperience, all Hades would break loose. After an overwhelm- ing loss, the team would settle down again in their next game and hold the score down. From the first game of the season this pattern could be seen. George Washington, at the end of the fourth. led by a mere 5-1 scoreg however, they picked up ten more in the final innings. Gonzaga proved to be the same. Then, in the third game, the Nlaroons narrowed the score. Still on the come- back trail, E.H.S. led Bullis 5-2 in the fifthg how- ever, the story of G.W. was again repeated when Bullis won 11-5. Thus the season went by, with many disappointments in each game. g'En1peror rroxscs the plate l 0QlfllfUCLy .QCLJUAGK i'ir4rN'l' Kim' illlflllllllifll, ,l. W, limi.. Krrrgfrg K. K.. fl. llrurrrfrwfr.

Captain ltay tork. ltayis part in tennis during his lour years on tht: llilt will never be equalled. Not only is ltay one of the hest tennis players ever to gi'acc tht- Maroon courts. hut also one of the best captains. one who will never be forgotten for his tennis enthusiasm. ltay's record in tennis is something to he noted. ln his first year at lfpiscopal. he became the number one player on the team: this position he has held ever since. During his first four-year reign as King of the Courts. Hay has lost only six matches out of tht- thirty-Hye he has played. As a result of this record. Nay has been the teamis captain ever since his second year at lf.ll.S. Also. from his playing liotli at lfpiscopal and in the National Tournaments, lipiscopal is ranked as the fifth best scholastic tennis team in the country. ln V953 lfpiscopal tennis was blessed with a group ol excellent players. Among these was ,lim Hass. this yearis Alternate-Captain. Last year Jim played in the number five slot and won eleven of his twelve matches. This year. he again posted a remarkable record. the best individual perform- ance on the squad. From Charlottesville came also Hunter Faulconer, the Varsity's only southpaw. ln 1053 Hunter took up tht- number two position right behind Ray. and there he has remained. The doubles combination of lluntcr and ltay has lost only two matches in their tln-tw years together. As a result of their playing. they are ranked third in the nation by the l'.S.t..'l'.A. Another raft-ruit from 1953 is Ben Keys. Playing in tht- numlmer t-ight position last year. Ben hopped 103 Hen Gear Kem ,gi M jim Stofer Terry Cooper R11 rffy Shll,VfUI'll up to the third slot this year. Without a doubt the hardest worker on the squad. Ben has received much praise from his coach. llard work has won him his place. The youngest member on the team was Stuart MeCloy, last year's rat wonder. who again played in his number four slot. Although young, he is far from inexperienced and, as a result of his steady playing, he posted a record well above the .700 mark. Last year, Fred Wright, the final 1953 recruit, broke into the Varsity ranks. Again playing at his sixth position. Fred proved to be the Varsity's steadiest member. The undefeated performance he and Ben Keys turned in last year as doubles partners was repeated this year. Vieing for the other two Varsity positions this year were Terry Cooper, Jim Stofer, and Bill deButts. These three boys were constantly shifting positions so that it became impossible to tell which two were actually on the Varsity. The remaining members of the squad were divided into three teams: the Junior Varsity of twelve members, and the Maroons and Blacks. each comprised of ten boys. The J.V.'s, under the coaching of Mr. Warriner. played two practice matches with the Varsity and seven meets with outside teams, three of which were varsities. Led by such players as Shep Ansley, Bucky Shuford. Jack Reese, Tony Burke, and Fairfax Randolph, this yearis team, like last year's, went undefeated. The Maroons and Blacks, coached by seminarian Bert Myers, were made up of the younger boys on the squad. Periodically, these teams would play each other in an intra-squad match which provided great enjoyment for all. 104 Tony Burke Shep Ansley SCHOQ ugnso, ul 'NS 17 6 4' 'Z aw o 99 foffzlrsn fe' 4' PXAN09 P :F 4 s, H+ iii . if 2 O X-4 X' Z 6 g'z x6:'.S , N . . . 1,1- 1f '3 9 ill!! fL85 nf Q49 105 1,11 D If . 1 f A .hr- A , ' -1.32 it . ., U, 4. - ,.,'.',' I lffjg . ,....... g., ,,...- A -', - - S ,p . .Mm 4?

After nine straight victories in the annual dual contest, Fairfax Literary Society aimed all its ellforts this year toward making it ten in a row and thus proving its claim that as far as the mem- bers are concerned. quality is what counts. not quantity--which is all that Blackford can claim. besides being the society of the boys lwhif-h does them a lot of good in the dual contestl. Tom Hand headed the society for the first term. with Walt Klingman, Stewart Bryan, and Ardon ,ludd serving as Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer respectively. The first term was spent selecting the outstanding reader. Stewart Bryan won this contest with ease. The results of the second term election were: President, Dave Showalterg Vice-President. Tom Randg Secretary, Ted Mollegeng Treasurer, Stewart Bryan. The activities during the winter months consisted of an original speech contest, won by Chiles Bowersock, and a competition for the debat- ing team, which resulted in the selection of Lang Bond and Dave Showalter. Declairning was the only contest left for the third term, which saw the election of Stewart Bryan as President, Chiles Bowersock as Vice- President, Dave Showalter as Secretary, and James Armstrong Cathcart, III, as Treasurer. Witli the formidable array of literary talent that Fairfax is sending into the dual contest this year, it is almost inconceivable that they will not meet with success for the tenth straight year.

Z?!acLLrc! olifeharg ociefg As usual, the Blackford Literary Society strode forward with its back toward the past and with aspirations for the future. A sincere drive for better support was led this year by President Cox, seeking revenge for last year's ninth consecutive defeat in the Dual Contest at the hands of the notorious Fairfax Society. Taking over the helm from Eugene Lane, Jay Cox has shown exceptional ability as a leader and as a firm supporter of the finer art of elocution. The Society did not choose to depart from its original leaders and re-elected all the officers for three terms. They were as follows: Angus lVlcBryde, Vice-President, Dan Smith, Secretary, Sandy Wise, Treasurer. All of these boys, although a bit reluctant to support the Society as a literary organization did offer their services in other ways. John Train took all the honors in the Reading Contest, while Lester Cooper and John Simmonds will represent the society as debaters. With plans for a Declaiming and Original Speech Contest, the Society, by a third term purge, was strengthened in quality and enthusiasm-preludes to the climactic act of finally capturing the Dual Contest from the psuedo-intellects of Fairfax. SEATED-McBryde, Cox. S'rANmNc-E. D. Smith, H. A. Wise The Wilmer Literary Society, under the indispensable and most capable guidance of Mr. R. P. Williams, enjoyed a highly successful year this year. As only three second-year boys returned, the first-year boys dominated the Society with respect to numbers, and, as the year went on, showed their various talents in the reading and declaiming contests. First term activities began with the election of ofhcers, and those elected were: Gus Kinsolving, President, Jimmy Watts, Vice-President, Courtney Mauzy, Secretary, and Albert Ritchie, Treasurer. ' The first term Wilmer Reading Contest, entered by most of the members, proved most exciting. With close competition, Dwight Day won the contest by an excellent reading. The second term started, as is the custom, with the election of oflicers. Elected were: Albert Ritchie, President, Dwight Day, Vice-Presidnet, ,lunius Fishburne, Secretary, and Cotesworth Pinckney, Treasurer. Gordon Le Grand won the Wilmer Declaiming Contest over good competitors. At the beginning of third term, Gordon Le Grand was chosen as President, Albert Ritchie was chosen Vice-President, and Frank Middleton was elected Secretary. Several of the new boys showed talents which undoubtedly will be developed in their future years in the senior literary societies of E.H.S. 10? CAMP Hillups, Matheson. H. A.

The lf-Cluh is a service organization devoted to the furtherance of athletics at Episcopal High School: therefore. it is one of the most important and worthwhile clulws in school. Its members include all those who have won their varsity mono- grams. These hoys pay no duesg instead, they must live up to two main qualifications: each memlter must participate in some sport every term. living up to its training rulesg all members must try to discourage both poor sportsmanship on the athletic fields and the deriding of any sport. ln its efforts to improve the quality of athletics at the High School. its memhers encourage all younger lmoys to participate on some organized team. At the end of each year. it gives a trophy to the licst junior athlete of cach sport and a trophy to the senior who has worked hardest at sports without receiving an Htl . Under the very ahle direction of Mr. W. B. Ravenel, the E-Club carries on a variety of activities. It has various committees to welcome all visiting teams, both varsity and junior, to attend to their needs. and to make them feel at home. lt has a fall and spring program committee that puts out football and track programsg it has a concessions committee to sell eokes and hot dogs at foothall games: and it has a movie committee to he in charge of showing popular movies to the school. With all of these activities. the li-liluh is truly one of the schools most constructive organiza- tions. l I3 Siwximiwtg: llr.

Acting standouts of last year, Sandy Wise and Tui Kinsolving, were elected president and vice- president, respectively.

At first. plans were made to produce this wholly student show in the latter part of February or the early part of March. Needless to say, these plans fell through because of the lack of time. Chiles Bowersock, Dave Showalter, and Buzz'7 Ringle decided that The Follies might be down but definitely not out. As a result of their efforts, Follies was reorganized on the second day after spring vacation and presented two weeks later. With such standout acts as The Brooks Brothersf' Meet Mr. Karlsonf, and 6'The Football Team, plus the standout comic performances of Hohhie Anderson, Dave Showalter, Owen Morris, and Hthe triof' which included Angus lVlcBryde, Billy Cook and Hut Moore the show was a great success.

P. Williams, was again organized. Electing new oflicers, some sixty members drew up a new constitution and ratified it. This society acts as E.H.S.7s sponsor for many worthwhile charities and, throughout the year, it was responsible for contributing over 3400 to such organizations as the Tuberculosis Foundation, CARE, the Red Cross, the Cancer Society, and the polio drive. The Society, in order to raise this money, sponsored a drive to collect for Christmas Seals at the C.W. basketball game and at the W.F.S. wrestling meet. The Society's members gain no material benefits from this organization. Neverthe- less, they pay their high dues willingly and see that their organization fulfills its purposes. Cheyne! Cjommiffee A voluntary communion service is held on the first Thursday morning of each month in Pendleton Hall. lt is the job of the Chapel Committee to polish the altar pieces each week, and to prepare the altar and seating arrangement for this service. The Chapel Committee was originated by Mrs. R. A. Walke in 1952, and under her supervision it did an excellent job. The group was reorganized in September of 1953 by Mrs. Thomsen, and continued to do a line job with her guidance. This year the membership was limited to fifteen boys, five of whom worked actively each term. A committee chairman was chosen for each term, each with four assistants. The first term chairman was Hunter Wood, the second Bill Kinsolving, and the third Rut Moore. waaimf..m rs ,v SEATI'1ll'f rllrlfrvdf B.Il.R..110nre Rami STANDINI E. D. Smith G. B. Hamilton H. 11.

This year the HHS. waiters continued in their tradition of service with a smile -keeping up a steady flow of the Slater System's best from the kitchen to the tables. The style and spirit with which they carried out this demanding task was due, in large part, to their combined skill and experience. It is an honor to he a waiter at Episcopal, so only capable boys are found on the two teams. And-as for experience -Tui Kinsolving, able Headwaiter and an old hand himself, was backed throughout the year by a crew of veterans. With these competent boys at the trays, there was never any need to worry about soup bowls or platters crashing down one's back. To them, as to the coffee and tea waiters, goes our deep appreciation. 117 Wiss Slater Srstenf' of '55 The pigpen The pigs' supper l .fi M I ,av 'T'-WK Vx ff ' WP!! SEATED--Owen Morris, Cox, Shields. STANDING-f-Fox. Egypt is a select group of boys, the older and more mature ones, who have at their disposal a separate lounge in the basement of Stewart Gym to be used for the exercise of both a necessary privilege and an important responsibility. The privilege is the enjoyment of a place to smoke and shoot the bullf' to relax in good company during the few breaks in a busy routine. The responsibility is to set an example for the younger boys in the school. Having attended to both its privilege and its responsibility this year, it is considered by many to be among the most profitable pastimes in school. This year the conduct of affairs along the Nile was entrusted to lay Cox, Pharaoh, 6'Freud Shields, Sultan: 4'Easy Ed Fox, Treasurerg and just plain Owen Morris, Scribe. Enrolled under their banner were most of the leaders of all phases of school life. As usual, conversation in the Low 11,8 '4Tuie makes his bid Lands was generally on a highly sophisticated plane, as the members at random discussed whatever topics came to mind. These ranged from theology to automotive engineering, from rudimentary philoso- phy to abnormal psychology, from the merits of g'Dennis the Menace? to the bridge-playing of 'g0wl.,' Griping in Egypt was totally non-existent and always well justified. Activity on the bridge tables never ceased, as such stars as uDemon York, Owen Morris, Sandy Wise, Honest Rives Richey, and Owl', Post held forth. In Egypt the elements were so mixed that it might truly be termed a smoking club in the venerable traditions of itsvpredecessors. However, it is darkly rumored that the Hittites are plotting to overrun the land of the Nile and deport its lords to mingle with the peasants of lesser races. Believing their cultural oasis essential and a real boon to school life, the Egyptians look to its future integrity with hopeful eyes. V 'The whole gangi' x 11 1 iws '1lnk 1.11 1 P255 CAL Amis, Frazer, H. L. Carter, Missmc rnoivi This year, as in the past, it has been the responsibility of the Press Club to make sure that all important school events receive outside publicity. Mainly, this boils down to covering the athletic sceneAseeing that all scores and other facts concerning games are phoned in to the newspapers. It is this organization that struggles to force the Washington Post and Times-Herald to recognize E.H.S. on its pages, insignificant though the recognition may be sometimes. For this and for the rest of their work, they deserve our thanks. .gzwlenf .gzruiced One phase of,school life regrettably not usually included in WIIISl'I'IRS is the service rendered to the students by the boys who run the Post Oflice, the A.A. shop, the bookstore, and the movie pro- jector. Their services are appreciated by every- one, and they are a vital part of school life. lt is needless to point out the necessity of a bookstore, especially one like the non-profit one John Simmonds and Bill Anderson run here on the Hill. The bookstore carries everything except ball-point pen refills. Both John and Bill give a great deal of time at odd hours to the running of this supply of graph paper, tooth paste, U.S. Army toothbrushes, and of course books, and the school is grateful for their efforts. Ted Mollegen and Wyatt Blankingship spend an hour each day after lunch running the A.A. shop in which students can buy on credit any athletic supplies. At the end of each term, these boys take time out from exam study to collect the bills run up over the term. An auxiliary service is the dry- cleaning service run by the shop. N ,lames Lockwood is another boy to whom the school owes a debt of gratitude. He is the school projectionist. He shows the E-club movies on Sundays, strips for visiting lecturers, and films used in certain classes such as the English History films on World War ll. Perhaps the most important of these school services is performed by the Post Ofhce keepers. After all, how could the shaft notes and Finals refusals get to their recipients without Angus lVlcBryde, Lee Kinsolving, and Chiles Bowersock? These boys keep the ollice during study hall, cash checks, sell stamps, and generally give a great deal of time to the maintenance of this all-important service. All in all, while these boys are paid, their services far exceed anything received for them, and, it cannot be repeated too often, they are worthy of the schoolls deep thanks. 119 W. C.

This year the editors decided to add another section on the academic life. It has just occurred to us that perhaps we should include still another section, this one on the side of school life that a yearbook usually does not include, the little things which don't fall under any of the existing divisions, a section which we shall call the Hfifth dimensionw. We don't know who said, A picture is worth a thousand wordsf' but he expressed our sentiments exactly, and with this thought in mind we decided that this section would consist chiefly of candid snapshots, taken at different places around the campus throughout the school year. Where it is appropriate we will add a few pertinent comments, explaining a little more fully what the pictures might not get across, and when we have finished we hope that you will have a slightly broader and better view of E.H.S. as the students themselves know it. 0lflfI,8l'l All boys have women for mothers. Some have women for sisters or aunts. But the kind of women the boys like the best are their uwomenn. Every self-respecting student has a woman -'even Lester L.B. Cooper, who never ceases to talk about his. Even Joe Dunn has A woman, though a good-looking fellow like Joe could have many more than just one. Even Pixton has a uwomanv, though she is often not the same girl for two straight weeks. Yes, almost all the boys have women, except Hut and Georgeg they have each other. And those who temporarily don't have women can always find a splendid selection to choose from at the Parish House f or if you're Billy Cook, at the Parrish housel on Sunday nights, or at any varsity athletic contest throughout the year. The following pictures show women with men, women without men, and just plain women fwho also don't have menl. 124 Our own Bare oot Contessa We dig Dug They're a nice looking pair Pix and present H1 Q' 5'-fc ..- .N r'lre'y mul Vinnie Like rinenzasropc. a lzroml picture We hate photogrupllrrs f . 0 lC 185 This section deals with the periodical plugs? that our Headmaster makes from time to time throughout the school year. Ever since his advent as head of the school, he has met the need for discipline by making new school policies. At various times he has been heard stating the merits of NOT wearing white athletic socks to church, of NOT wearing Bermuda shorts to meals, of NOT using shaving cream nbombsi' as weapons. of NOT having water battles, of NOT walking across the grass, of NOT ringing the school bell unless Mduly authorizedn, of NOT using unorthodox gripsi' on the dance floor,-we could go on indefinitely. Though there is a normal amount of griping at these Hrestrictionsf, there are few boys in school who would be so narrow-minded as to say that they are not really in the best interests of the whole gang. With tongue in cheek. We dedicate this section to those classmates who acted like Willies off the pickle boatw and violated a school policy. May they rest in peace. 125 f.'hlIl'l'Il hcllfs rung. form' on. Pillows MUST be covererf by i!'UI1IIlf'l'l1IIl16.Si.lu cy just liolft worlf: lic lricri thcm.

S tewart Bryan 129 .!4kel lll0l An afterword by definition is something that comes at the end of a book, which is used to express an afterthought on the preceding subject. lt should not, however, be a philosophy of life or a collection of ideas, but should be used for that purpose for which it was designed. It is our purpose to create the desired effect in as few words as possible. Our annual would not be complete without mention of the various people who have helped us put it together. lVlr. Newell, our printer, is the main reason our book is here on time. Without his valuable assistance on all phases of this book, we would be issuing pamphlets instead of a book. To him we owe our second dedication. Mr. Deeble, our faculty advisor, has probably spent more time on WHISPERS than anyone can imagine. Without his advice feven though it was often contestedj and his taxi service, we could never have put out this annual. Mr. Read, the representative from Lanman Engraving Company, also deserves a lot of credit for the speed in which our photographs were engraved. Mr. Turner, the school photographer, did his usual fine job. There are numerous other people who also deserve credit in their respective fields: Mrs. Ticer, who did a great amount of typing, Mrs. Sharpe, who helped us with our financesg and all the faculty and staff of E.H.S. We would like to commend several departments which did the finest job that We have seen since we have been connected with WHISPERS. The first of these is the business department. lt collected more than two thousand dollars worth of ads for the 1955 WHISPERS, which is not only a new record for ads, hut also a major achievement. The layout department is next. It did a magnificent job in co-operating with the various groups, and also turned out more work than ever before. The last of these, the literary staff, achieved a literary standard which the Episcopal High School can justly be proud of. To those in all departments whose toes we have stepped on, we would like to apologize, especially to those over whom we have seemed too dominating. ' To us this WHISPERS is a cumulation of pleasant work over a period of time. We only hope that you, the readers, will get as much enjoyment out of the book as we, the editors, have put into it.
