However, all in all we iigure to have a ball, and toward that end we plan to include in this Brier Patch pictures and comment which will bring back memories in the years to come. Our thanks go to all who helped to make this possible. Our appreciation goes to you, the reader, who will be the final judge of our work, for your patience and understanding. Our best wishes go to all at The Brier. I MM Q aw! ACADEMIC Q Wm APS' 1x-wives A X1 IES VQATVRES I , . lrrri, ' A VI' ,- Cx -X . RQ ' Ixil 1 ' 1 ' .- n ' ,-9 ' A ' ,w ls a -. .. v 'il I , I .

CADET CAPTAIN HENRY HADLEY STEWART. JR.-Scloolamlaip He has consistently done Outstanding academic Work in all classes Over a four-year period, at the same time contributing his talents to worth-while extracurricular activities. page seven Fox THE FIGHTING CADETS: I have always believed to succeed in life one must have the heart of a Champion. The qualities of greatness in one realm are the same in another. What it takes to make a Champion on the field is exactly what it takes to make a Champion in life-Champions always live cleang work hardg never give upg have faith in what they can dog they can take defeat and bounce back to victory, they give everything they've got- physically, mentally, spirituallyg many of them rely on God for strength and help. These principles will lead a man to success, happiness and to greatness. The greatest Champion I have ever known in life is Jesus Christ. He has been my greatest Coach. May God bless the boys of Greenbrier Military School, may they always be Champions in life. page eight BOB RICHHRDS World's Olympic Record Pole Vaulter vfriirilr -But more than that, we salute The Rev. Robert E, Ricloardr, now pastor of the First Church of the Brethren, Long Beach, California, who is devoting his life to SERVICE. skifrift In accepting the 1955 SALUTE, Bob Richards wrote, Words can not express how deeply grateful I am for being accorded this honor. I feel very humble in lieu of the calibre of men and women pre- ceding me, but I can assure you none is more appreciative. . i g ..... xg, LIEUTENANT COLONEL WILLIAM A. RAWI, Perhaps he seems most a friend when he is he- hind the window on Friday afternoon giving out allowances, or when he ushers us into our seats at night church. However, he is always a friend to the entire corps, and is ever ready to listen to our individual problems. It is a privilege to dedicate this, the l955 Brier Patch, to a Gentleman, Otjhcer, and Friend whom we all admire- LT. COL llllllllllll H. Rilllll page ten MRS. S. S.

He, together with Archie and Villafana, made the town of Lewisburg regret that there were composers who could write such loud songs. Chico made his stay at The Brier worth while, making good marks and using all his ability in sports. During his four years journey, Chico advanced to the grade of First Sergeant in Company B, with Blindo Stewart commanding the slops. Chico is going to miss the Brier and the school across town. We hope that he is a great success in the years to come. We also hope to see him with the rest of the gang at Homecoming. The girls in Cuba are getting their other Idol back. How do you like that! RICHARD CEDRIC BARKER 2465 Farleigh Road, Columbus 12, Ohio This big red-headed cowboy from Columbus is really a big Western Joe from somewhere near Jackson Hole country in Wyoming. He plays the guitar and sings like Tex Ritter or is it Gene Autrey? No-it's like Lex Barker. Every now and then he lets that long hair go in favor of a crew cut. He vowed he would never go near the College across town, but has been seen there quite regularly, especially since Christmas. After four years he ends up as company commander and captain of A for Admirablef' He starred on the Big Brass team which finally won over the Greenbrier College gals in a terrific show for the March of Dimes Fund. Everybody likes Big Lex from the wide open spaces, even if we never can hgure out whether he lives in Ohio or Wyoming. RICHARD LOWELL BLAND Eleanor, West Virginia This is another four-year All-American Red-Head candi- date. He is a platoon sergeant in Company D. An alleged woman hater, we are waiting for the day when some little blonde cutie takes Doc to the cleaners! He likes hill-billy music and we would like to have a dollar for every hour Doc has listened to someone wailing about a broken heart you left me waiting at the church in the hills of old Kentucky come give me your candy kisses in this old house where you wrote the letter edged in black swearing you'd always love your little darlin'-if you follow us, or even if you don't. He gs ?dgood football player. His favorite classes are Trig. and o 1 . page twenty LEOPOLDO BRICENO Calle California, Quinta La MiIagrosa , Urbanizacion Las Mercedes, Caracas, Venezuela Leo hails from Caracas, Venezuela, the city of the oil. Leo came to the Brier during the second term of 1952. He liked it and came back to seal it oi? with gold paint. Briceno is a versatile jazz fan and his preferred interpreter is Thelonious Monk. If you watched Briceno during the year you probably saw him accompanied by the rest of the spicks-Archie, Chico and Villafana. They were probably heading for GCW, but someone else held them up on their way. Good Luck to you, Leo, and I hope that you are a great success in your career. We also hope that wherever you go, don't forget that we are back here and we don't want you to forget the Brier and the good times we had together. GEORGE FREDERICK BROOKS 55 East Main St., Richwood, West Virginia Fred has been with us two years, and in that time he has written some girl's name all over his school books. Looks to us like he never studies English or mathematics or history, but just that girl from back Richwood way. Brooks hails from the town made famous by a newspaper named the News Leader, edited by Jim Comstock and Bronsom McClung, which never used a word when two pictures will do. We mention i.e. here to give the N-L a bit of free publicity QSend in your subscription todayj because we know Fred would want us to boost anything about his old home town. We don't think Fred has ever had to walk the beat. He has done all right at The Brier, where he pounds out the rhythm on the drums in the band. He is a real fan of Perez Prado, and likes those mombo records. BILLY JOE CARDER l24 Woodland Ave., Clarksburg, West Virginia One of the unusual thrills at Greenbrier is to watch Billy joe rush away from retreat to dash hurriedly to A stoop and pick up his teeth. Billy joe, the handsome guy, is a Green- brier College regular. He plays a mean game of Jayvee football-not at the college, you understand, but on Mathews field. He can't stay away from Greenbrier County and has spent several summers as an Indian brave at Camp Shaw- Mi-Del-Eca. A confirmed night rider, we hear Billy joe was a ring leader of the dreaded Vigilantes. We would not call BJ a regular beat walker, but he has been known to skip around the flag pole during afternoon hours. GEORGE BRYAN CARVER Hoi' Springs, Virginia This lieutenant from Old Virginia has made a fine three- year record at The Brier. He is the executive type, although that doesn't mean he doesn't do a lot of the work himself. In fact, he earned his top spot as Editor-in-Chief of the paper by persistently hard work, and we have often seen him this year running around looking as if he wanted something to throw at a tardy engraver, printer, or reporter. He has served his time on the track team chain gang. He seldom runs across town, however, a fact we attribute to some at- traction, maybe uranium, back in the hills of the Old Domin- ion. Dependable is the word for this fellow. He does a right pert job of taking care of any promises made by Young George. DEWEY ALVIN CASH l403 Liggaies Road, Lynchburg, Virginia Big Al Cash, with the good natured grin, came over from that Virginia city where everybody has one short leg and one long leg because the streets are so steep. He played a whale of a game in the backheld of Coach Turley's Fighting Cadet varsity football team. With Lynchburg being so steep, as we have maybe inferred, we can't figure out how Al grew over 6 feet tall and kept both those legs alike. They do say he is 6-2 and his favorite little girl is 2-6. Cute, too. His favorite song is Your Cash Ain't Nothin' But Trash. We have noticed your hair has been getting a little lighter this spring, Al. What happened? GEORGE CYRIL CLARK, JR. Box 327, Eldred, Pennsylvania This Keystone Stater, who will probably end up as a chemical engineer making cloth out of spider webs or some such miracle, is smart as a whip, we think. We hear he and one other were the only two brains to pass physics the first month. He has probably rung up some sort of all-time record here in that last year he went with a certain college girl who is now back in Johnstown, Pa., and Clark still seems to be true to her although she no longer adorns the halls of G. C. W. This Owls Club member likes to play golf. He has an idea he would like to go to M. I. T. We think maybe he has earned a few stars for his crown by helping his fellow cadets learn physics and trig. SAMUEL STANLEY COMBS Lewisburg, West Virginia Here is a cattleman, farmer, man-about-town, musician, and all-round good fellow who has been here since Dr. McElhenney started the old brick academy prior to 1812. Stanley is captain of that famous Cadet Band which took second place at the National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D. C., over some 30 other representative state bands. He has always worked hard to make the band out- standing. Stanley played trumpet, at which he excels, and baritone before he took over the reins of the temperamental and unpredictable musicians. He works determinedly at his iob, and you may be sure when someone goofs it dehnitely is never Stan's fault. His favorite likes include a girl from the heart of Maryland, any kind of mathematics COh yeah? D , and sports, marches, or mombas which will in any way help the morale of the Band. JOHN STRAUGHAN CORBIN Box 228, Prestonsburg, Kentucky Good ideas run in good families, so it is easy to under- stand why 1923 was followed by 1955. john's second year at The Brier found him strutting his stuff in Washington and elsewhere as Drum Major of the prize-winning Cadet ROTC Band. John has the ability to trifle around in care- free fashion and yet managed to keep off the beat, a secret his roommate can not explain! He likes moody, popular music and girls, although someone tells me he went looking for gold at the college and it just didn't pan out. A couple of GCW girls just missed the boat. He was a member of the Vigilantes, probably claims the organization was founded by a fellow from Prestonsburg some 32 years ago. We hope he is around at least one more year. GEORGE LEE COUNTS 171 Riverside Drive, Welch, West Virginia George has been a fixture at Greenbrier for the past three years, and has also been on view at football camp each fall. Last year, if memory serves, like Kipling's Mulvaney he could say, was a corporal wonstl However, George beat his way back up from private in the rear rank. This year he served as color sergeant. Counts is a Rebel from way back yonder, probably would like to change the name of his town from Welch, West Virginia, to Jackson, Mississippi. fOr had you considered that angle, George?J He has a like- able personality, played a wicked game of football for the Jayvees this past fall, gets along well with everybody, and rates right up there as an all-round good Joe. RENE RAYMOND DU FOUR Box 202, Hot Springs, Virginia Frenchy Dufour, from the Old Dominion, is a very busy man. He started out as a Peanut, ended up as company com- mander of C for Capable. Meanwhile, he has worked in a lot of intercompany sports, some Captain football, and a lot of extra curricular activity across town. He has played just about every sport in our big intramural program. For fur- ther particulars about the Greenbrier College classes, see the 1955 Queen of the Brier. We don't know how Rene man- aged to do so well by himself over Greenbrier College way, but give the kid credit-he did! This summer he is going to see Gay Paree in France. DELVORD MANNING EDDY 379 South Broadway Park, Lexington, Kentucky Here is another company commander, who has held the honor the second time, something rather remarkable. He bosses D for Durable, and is known as The Big Man with the Whip. He cracks a bull whip like a pistol-or did, until it was once taken away by Col. Moore! He is a good wrestler, good boxer, and he and his first sergeant have been called both the morale builders and bosses and the biggest trillers in Co. D! He made himself a possible career in radio with his singing jingles in English III class when they were studying advertising. And they do tell he started at- tending GCW in early April. MANUEL COY FARLEY IGI I V2 Quarrier Street, Charleston, West Virginia Mannie Farley, a D lieutenant, knows his way to Charleston AND Greenbrier College. flf Charleston is reading this, or even GCW, the fellow writing this is only kidding. We have to write something, you know, so don't you believe itlb He has been active in intramural sports, belongs to the Hunchers which upholds the immoral stan- dards of education in Lewisburg, is occasionally on bounds, passes his classwork in spite of all these extra curricular activities, and all in all lives the full and gracious life at The Brier. You know, we could make this write-up really interesting if we wished. We hear this fellow often has feminine visitors up here at all hours, practically demanding an audience with Mannie. What a man! page twenty-two JAMES EDWARD FOX Algoma, West Virginia Maybe sly as a fox, he walked the Greenbrier halls several years ago and then dropped out for awhile before coming back to try it again. He plays a good drum and with his roommate, Jim Gillespie, he likes to listen to records and join in for red hot jam sessions. To show you something about this fellow's brains, we may stare without fear of con- tradiction lbelieve this or notj that the Second Term he was the only one able to pass the colonel's solid geometry examination. He dearly loves to rough-house, but when it is time to study-he manages to be tops in every class he takes. You can't beat that combination for all-round develop- ment, can you? RICHARD FRANKLIN FREEMAN 816 West Third Street, Huntington, West Virginia Now this write-up could be something! We could tell you all about cats meowing in night study hall, rough-hous- ing after taps, talking off reports-Dick should be a lawyer, we are sure-walking around the flag pole-picking them up and layin' them down, pounding the concrete day and night-spilling Huntington anecdotes in American History class, etc., etc., and so on ad iazhnitum. There is always some- thing going on when Dick is around. Woman trouble? Yes. Class trouble? Yes. Trouble answering reports? Yes. But none of it very troublesome to this good-natured fellow, who manages to do what he has to do and even more at times. He played varsity football and added many a cheerful note when the going was rough. Sometimes his arm slips in a pileup. Throws his teeth at you. Likes to beat on Clark, R. We guess that does it. We mean-Dick is O. K. DAVID RICHARD GIBBS Sabina, Ohio This fellow can tell tall tales until 3 or 4 A. M. when he should be sound asleep. This is his fourth year in Co. D, where he now runs his part of it well as Sergeant First Class. Sometimes he is called Skinney, but also Humphrey Pennyworth. We don't believe even half of what he tells us about his car-what a thrill to take the wheel in his merry Oldsmobile. He smokes like a furnace, but we can't say OP's. To make up for this, he won't lend out his own. Fair enough! Mention a demerit around Gibbs and he goes crazy. He has never walked the beat in his four years here. Help-help-this is not reasonable. Can't someone do some- thing about this! University of Michigan bound, he would make a good lawyer. JAMES GRATTON WITTEN GILLESPIE 2205 Oak Avenue, Newport News, Virginia Dizzy Gillespie, the fellow who fought a cold war up in his room every night, will probably end up like former Greenbrier Cadet Roger Droodles Price, a star on tele- vision. We'll be watching and listening. Dizzy, when you expound on the dangers of the atomic bomb in an open held. Gillespie can't keep up with Fox during those jam sessions. However, you never see one without the other. They have even walked the beat together. He played Jayvee football last year, went in strictly for trifling this year, but claims he gave it up for classes so he could get that diploma. All in all, it's nice having Dizzy around and being around Dizzy. RQNALD DAVID HACKETT 659 Hollywood Drive, Monroe, Michigan Here's the guy from the town named after that movie blonde. Ron the Cat has been with us only one year. He is a believer in Mr. B tBilly Eckstinel shirts with the rolling collars, peg pants, and suede shoes, not to mention long hair-which he tries to grow but can't. He loves to jitter- bug. He has a path worn from GMS to GCW, and this year claims he is majoring in women and pool. He has staked out one-half our pool table as his own. With all this, Ron makes good grades, and doesn't know what Night Study Hall is like. He is full of jokes and good humor and gets along with everybody. Always will. JOHN MICHAEL HAMILTON Mt. Rt. l7, Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania Mike is our Bevo Francis Hamilton, who led B Company to a thrilling intramural upset basketball victory over C Company. He is loud at times, tired at times from walking around the well-worn circle, once made a record by getting about 34 merits in one month PLUS nearly 200 the same month. Page the late Mr. Ripley. Mike is occasionally ab- sent from B Company stoop as he still likes to study with his A Company buddies. Mike is a friendly fellow with lots of ability when he wants to use it in the right direction. He did a lot of work writing sports for this annual. It is rumored his nickname may be changed from Mike and Bevo to Firecracker. JOHN WILLIAM HAMRIC Gassaway, West Virginia Hamric is crazy about automobiles and photography. He likes a trip around the country every once in a while. He also likes to take pictures, has asked Toia to Take 3 minutes out and tell me all you know. He has escaped the wiles of the college across town. He manages to get by with a mini- mum of effort, can often be found hiding out in the dark room dropping negatives into any handy solution, and turned into an archeologist this spring. For proof see the snapshot. WALTER DAVID HAUGHT 2961 Merrill Avenue, Huntington, West Virginia His nickname is Chic, but whether or not after Chic Sale we wouldn't know. He trifles around, can find his way to our school pool table, likes to listen to records. As to girls, our information is he has broken up three times this year with the same one, is going steady just at present. When it comes to athletics, Chic finds himself right at home on the football gridiron or the basketball court. This Hunting- ton fellow is a one-year Senior at The Brier, has made .1 commendable all-round record. JACK HILLARD 6l2 Blackburn Avenue, Ashland, Kentucky Speedy Hillard flashed like a meteor down the gridiron during football season, ran the dashes to take many first places in meets when track season rolled around. Jack has been known to trifle a bit, and even to walk the well known beat. He picked up about 20 fat demerits this spring when he decided to visit a local beauty shop along with Al Cash and Gene Johnson. But the effect was worth it. Devastating, no less. Jack enjoys life and may always be found having a good time. But he can be serious when necessary, and rates as a good student. RALPH SMALLRIDGE HITCHCOCK Gassaway, West Virginia Hitch has had it! He is sitting here as we write this so it is hard to tell just what will come out. Hitch doesn't bother with the college, gets a letter about every day from some girl he has fooled up Clarksburg way. He has been here four long years, has a sleeve full of stripes. He studies at times, even in night study hallg he trifles at timesg he has been known to walk the beat. He rooms with the bullwhip expert and their room usually looks like someone has just driven a bulldozer through the premises. He tries to shoot pool, enjoys swimming, hiking, and archeryg his aim in life is to defy Maj. Praeger and keep his long hair. JAMES HUDSON HUFFARD 7l0 Tazewell Avenue, Bluefield, Virginia Hud hails from the city where the state line runs right down the middle of Main Street, smartly lives on the Old Dominion side to save paying sales taxes. He likes to listen to blues and jazz records. It is rumored he took a chance on leaving us last year about the time a trash barrel blazed up in flames and smoke. The Greenbrier Hotel pool in White Sulphur Springs is one of his favorite recreation spots. As far as we know, he hasn't been taken in by either the young ladies of the college ot the town. Intelligence officers are trying to find out if he is a B Company spy, as he is often seen in Sayre's room in C Company. DAVID HURST Eduardo Conde No. 2105, Santurce, Puerta Rico Davisito, like the others call him, hails from the land of Puerta Rico where all is perfect. His motto is Never comb your hair and Dufour had to take drastic measures because the kid took Dufour's request like murder. David is one of those camera carrying boys. Prado told him once he was the best full-blooded Puerta Rican and David took it so seriously he was ready to hit congress again. Well, David, you know We are just joking with you and we hope you like our jokes. If you ClOI'l,I, protest to Pradog it was his idea. David is also a member of the Latin Council. He sparked the soccer team of the Latin-American boys many times. page tufentyafour JAMES BOYD KEISLING 741 Washington Avenue, Carnegie, Pennsylvania This big fellow played a lot of good football for the Fight- ing Cadets. During the third term, we noticed he also played a lot of permits to go to the library for a research theme, and judge he is after his Ph. D. His senior oration was one of magnificent eloquence even if we are still trying to figure out what he talked about. Slim Jim managed to stay quiet only while sleeping and is even reported to be a snorer. If you can't find him, just look for Duke Schneider and there will be jim also. Jim is known as a sharp-shooter in intramural basketball, as never once did one of his shots fail to hit the floor. JOHN PATRICK KILLORAN 315 Bell Drive, Lewisburg, West Virginia This local-boy-makes-good candidate divides his time pretty well between GMS and town. He likes the outdoors, talks like he may end up as a forest ranger. -I. P. has one of the best miniature railroad systems to be found anywhere, can tell you all you want to know, and maybe things you don't, about railroad trains. He is always seen around the Brier with Bland, tries to outdo him in letters from the girls. He drives like the wind and probably will end up as a racing star. He is a member of the Camera Club and can take your likeness at a moment's notice. He upholds the honor of the Lewisburg Leisure Lovers. FLOYD BEATTIE LAWRENCE Plasfico, Virginia Big Floyd Lawrence dates the college now and then. He has a system for getting by with murder as a trifier in a mild way around GMS, but has been known to walk the beat. He was an outstanding back on the varsity football team. He likes to play, which helps a lot. As an Infirmary Gold Bricker, Dick land we still can't figure why Dick D ranks No. l, wins the leather medal. He is quite proud of Vir- ginia-the state, that is-and thinks the sun shines nowhere so brightly as in the Old Home State. His infectuous grin and good humor will stand him in good stead. JOSEPH WILMOUTH ROGERS LAWSON, ll 408 Third Street, Princeton, West Virginia Joe Lawson, who was joe Cadet of Co. A last year, is a hard-boiled sergeant, known as one of the sharpest looking boys in school. So far, the college hasn't been able to make him forget Princeton, that town the S. E. Post called a little country town you never heard of. CP. S.-All right, all RIGHT-so it's the largest of all the Princetons in the U. S. A.J. Joe does a good job on the newspaper staff, is interested in Hi-Y Club work, and is one of the best public speakers in school, could speak before the Rotary Club with ease. In fact, we are afraid we will have to put joe Lawson down as an all-round good fellow, able and ready. HAROLD HENRY MARSH, II 4318 Tuckerman Street, University Park, Maryland Hank has been here three years, won the Washington Alumni Chapter watch in 1953. He worked like a Trojan on this year book, although he had such a full schedule he didn't find it easy to get the time. He plays the field where women are concerned, is a hard-boiled top-kick in Company C-the Honor Company, he will probably remind you- and takes part in intramural athletics. He hasn't run as many demerits the last two years as he did in about two months his first year. He knows his way around, can wiggle one ear fask him rob, and is running a close second to Cole- man in the race to see who can turn in the most report sheets. Stick Happy, C calls him! ROBERT THEODORE PERKINS I2 Dogwood Road, West Orange, New Jersey Speedy Perkins is the slowest guy on two feet. You know how slow Col. joe is? Col. Joe is speedy compared to Perkins. That's the report we get! Our informant adds that when Perkins goes to see Col. Joe for a 40-minute ad- visory conference it lasts all morning. Like the tortoise. however, he gets there. He does OK in his classes. He can speak Spanish like one of our boys from South of the Border. His friends say it is sort of difiicult to get him to go out and play around, so we'll just have to report that Speedy Perkins likes his textbooks. You can usually find him sitting in his room on the back of C stoop studying away. ANZOLA ALFONSO ROBLEDO Calle 39 No. l8-34, Bogota, Colombia, South America Robledo comes from a coconut tree that fell in the Medi- terranean 100 years ago. He is one of the brains of the Latin group. Also, he is engaged in many sports activities and belongs to many clubs. He is like David Hurst-he likes to take pictures. Robledo is Suarez's old pal and you will always see them together no matter where the roads lead. Robledo is one of the soccer stars of the bunch, but at least he plays. Robledo keeps away from trouble ll mean girlsj. He is a Lonely Latin Lover of his native Colombia. He also likes to sing and to play the accordion, and he is very good at it. He is quiet, you seldom hear him yell un- less he is leading his small squad in A Company. ALCIBIADES de LA PENA RODRIGUEZ Angel Guerra ll5, eq Pepe Torres, Holguin, Orte, Cuba The Snipe came to the Brier in 1951-52. The next year seaman duties carried him away, but he missed The Brier and came back to graduate. He is a future merchant mariner. We hope he does well on this, his great ideal. Archie is another one of those Latin Lovers. He lives across town and his mail box from Cuba-is always iilled with letters. Archie is also a very hearty sportsman and has entered differ- ent competitions and won many trophies. We are certainly going to miss Archie, especially his singing, and his yelling sections with Alvarez and his clever daily news on the bulletin board-but we have to give to the Cuban girls their other idol. ROBERT ALAN SANTORA Abbott Acres, R. D. l, Wexford, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Bob paid the penalty for football last year, coming out with a broken leg, and then grabbed off the prize-our of drill for the rest of the year. When we name our All- American Trifling Team we will probably have to give some thought to including Bob and his suite mates who live up above Cmdr. and Mrs. Dosier! We haven't asked for the commanders opinion on this. Bob also likes to sleep, espe- cially in Col. Moore's trigonometry and solid geometry sec- tions. Bob doesn't care whether or not the sun still shines, likes to go home a lot and can come up with the derndest excuses you ever heard. We predict a fine record at Bucknell. BAXTER NATHANIEL SHAFFER 202 Ashby Avenue, Charleston, West Virginia Baxter made a record here by editing the Brier Patch in his Sophomore year. He has taken part in just about every activity in school, has been known variously as the Daily Mail Man, the Loud Speaker Man, the Boot and Spur Ticket Man, and even the Greenbrier College Man-for he knows his way around the school on the other hill. He likes to tinker with radios and television sets, can bring in CHS-TV on a window pane. As a member of Bn. Hdq. he works himself sick CH. He is often seen with another hard worker, Bud Perry, the business manager of this annual. Baxter likes to chase boys with a bull whip, likes to chase girls period. CPut down your dukes, Baxter, no offenselb FREDERICK ERD SHAHAN 207 Joseph Street, South Charleston, West Virginia Here is another Charlestonian who brags about the gold- domed capitol. He is one of the fellows Lewisburg may tax because he wears down the sidewalks between here and GCW. He managed to get and keep those buttons in spite of being perhaps one of the biggest triflers in the entire history of GMS. Freddie likes his fun, and doesnit worry too much about troubles. He is active in intramural athletics, helped A Company win many a game. He also played Jayvee football. He did his share of beat walking, before he learned it was more fun to walk across town than around and around. MORRIS MICHAEL SHEBROV 2090 Pitkin Avenue, Brooklyn 7, New York This cadet lieutenant makes good grades and also believes in plenty of exercise. Although not too much interested in athletic competition, he keeps himself in shape and rates high in every physical development test at The Brier. Shebrov is the quiet type-sometimes. He and roommate George Clark work together and get pretty trifling together sometimes, reports our Chief Stooges. He complimented Updike, who was promoted to sergeant, in no uncertain terms. Our Rollicking Russian will probably get a big shock if he takes electrical engineering at Norwich next year. page twenty-six 1 l ROY EDWARD SHUCK, JR. Rt. 5, Pleasant Valley, F.airmont, West Virginia We call Roy our really Great Lover because he gave them all up for a girl in Fairmont. He is a good military man, likes sports, helped Co. B team in softball and volleyball and other games. He also played jayvee football. He loves music, will listen to records any time. Roy is active in many activities, including publications. He is an all-round good fellow, and manages to keep his roommate, Carlos Alvarez, under control most of the time, although El Senor insists that sometimes I have to control him, too! BERNARD JOSEPH SIMMS 1300 Temple Street, Hinton, West Virginia Bernie was on the varsity football squad, never failed to give his best. He can talk the ears off a brass monkey, will argue with anybody including Major Keene. During day study hall he has been known to get out of the beloved assembly hall by being a college student. He likes ath- letics, is out for varsity baseball. In fact, he is one of our fellows who acquired a shiner during early practice. He can toss around sarcasm when he wants to. We were glad to have this product of nearby Hinton, W. Va., come to The Brier, FRANK CARNEY SIMMS l2l3 Wilmington Avenue, Richmond, Virginia Frank is a one-year senior who has made a good record. His gal was our Snow Queen last December, thus probably making Frank eligible for Snow King. She is also a CHS majorette. He played backfield for the Jayvee football team, is out for varsity baseball. He and Lawson have the greatest room in school- Perfect, just like home, say his envious buddies. He is another of our fellows who is true-blue- never dates the college, and we take oath to it. HENRY HADLEY STEWART, JR. l200 Cambria Avenue, Windber, Pennsylvania Ducky is Commander of B for Best, is in and out of all the activities in a school, and still finds enough surplus energy to trifle. How he stays away from being On bounds continually is a mystery to this writer. He makes high grades, edits the year book at times, finds it fun to make taps inspection at night with a squirt gun which he lets loose on his company personnel one after the other. He misses a lot of fun by not dating GCW, but probably doesn't want to have to drag over there in full dress because all those medals would pull down his left shoulder to the side- walk. All in all Duck manages most of the time to have himself a ball. JORGE BETANCOURT SUAREZ I3-39 Carrera Sa, Bogota, Colombia, South America Jorge came to The Brier with his brother, German, in 1953, when GMS was populated by Colombians and the Anzola cast. Koki is a very good sportsman and a good singer, but he is not like the members of the Super-C Club: he doesn't make noise and raise the town once a week. Jorge is going to join his brother at Cornell Uni- versity, and then he will move to Colombia. Jorge is a good soldier in B Company and did a very good job with military. Jorge completes the Robledo series. He and Robledo are the immediate action pals, and you will always see them together. FRANK PHILIP TOIA 601 Locust Place, Sewickley, Pennsylvania Frank is our Demon Photographer, always ready to take an individual or a group. Sometimes, of course, he forgets to change film and has to take the glee club over again. Some- times he puts the negatives in the wrong mixture. And occasionally-not often, you understand-he has to be ex- cused from class to snap a pix. But all in all he has done a fine job and many of the photos in this annual were made by Toia, F. He is the quiet kind. When we asked about his love life, we were told: He likes to go over to the college before he quit unfinished love story, if you ask us. He was so busy taking pictures of other athletes he didn't have time to play games himself. He will some day get a Pulitzer prize for picture taking. MANUAL GUZMAN VILLAFANA Juanacatlin ll0 Esq. con Cuautla, Mexico ll, D. F. Manuel came to the Brier the same year that the Snipe first left. Manuel is an active member of everything that goes on in school. We can't leave him out of the list of noise makers and singersg he completes the series. He also lives across town and across country down in Mexico. He collects fan and female material like the rest of the spicks do, but he does it in Mexico. Manuel is a member of the Spanish-American club and he lives to see the day that the club is approved by the administration of the school. Archie nicknamed him Cerillo, meaning a match, from which we gather Manuel is a bright one, He likes ro bass out his Here, Sir! in NSH. JERRY ROBERT WEEDEN l6l7 North 78th Court, Elmwood Park 35, Illinois Jerry is one of our Big Brains in classwork. He is a quiet fellow who pulls down the good grades, even helps the other fellows. Duck says Weeden is his competition. He can scoot around the dining room like lightning on a jeep. He left Wilkerson his Trig grade, expecting Jimmy to need it next year. He is an expert angler, and we don't mean fisher- man-he is always on the prowl for an angle to get some- thing or get out of something. We understand he is quite an actor in the Junior Room at GCW. He spends his after- noons working sines and cosines and usually brings in too many to class. ROBERT NELSON WHITE Pedro, Ohio Now here is a fellow who would have been happy driving one of those 40 mule train wagons for the Borax company back in the days of long ago. He belongs to the bull-whip club over in D hall. He dates the college, goes steady for about two weeks and changes for new scenery, likes to go AWOL, enjoys sports, takes part in intramurals and Hi-Y basketball. He even did some good work on this year book. When you can't find him, look for Farley, Eddy, and Hitch- cock. Bob White, sweet singing little bird that he is, will be close by. JAMES EASTMAN WILKERSON Whitesville, West Virginia Young james pesters every teacher in school except Col. Moore, wonders if the Good Ship Sassafras was stolen, and has a time with the commander in physics class. He must have practiced a lot with that sabre of his, and likes to toss it around, whirl it around, stick it in the ground. He and Duck Stewart have played many a baseball game in class with yardstick and paper, sometimes refer to one class as The Big lnning. jimmy is Owls Club material, has missed out on the fun of walking the beat, has managed to skip Night Study Hall all but one unlucky week. ..sL... DONALD WILKIE WILKINSON 204 Truslow Street, Charleston, West Virginia Mother Wilkinson, as sergeant in the band, looked after his chicks. He is just outside the door, being held there by main force, as we complete the senior write-up. The things we could say and won't! He plays trombone in the band. He has done good work on the publication staffs. He likes to brag about his girls. He used to date GCW. His first year he was on the beat only SM hours, but he more than made up for it in '55. Like all band members, he always gave his best to that organization and was a big help in the impressive record made by the musicians this year. WORK AND PLAY-Top: Routine field inspection . . . Cos.

As you can see, the cheer leaders are in a jovial mood because the score board lwhich you can not readily seek records a thumping S5-23 victory over Augusta Military Academy, and these young ladies were asked to remain after the game so they might make the photographer happy, these cadets are in a jovial mood because each one expects to get at least a POST card-note the heel of an unknown cadet who is hurrying toward the package window. Get his room number, quickly. And Dr. George Lemon is in a jovial mood because he is ar Rotary luncheon, free for an hour, no need to dispense pink pills to pale people. Semin! run'-Mr. Ray Hanson is about to put Col. VU. A. Rawl in it jovial mood by handing over a check. Our photographer happened by at just the right moment. Had he waited a split second, he would have had an even more jovial smile on the Colonel's face, this crowd of cadets at the PX are happy because they are free from school for awhile, have money burning their pockets, and what more could one ask? And here both clerk and customers seem jovial enough. Borrow mu'-Mrs. A. I.. Milnar, olhcial scorekeeper lor the mighty battle between the Lightweights of A and B, is probably jovial because the game is over. At any rate, A won, 53-49. Truth to tell, these sons and daughters ol' faculty are not quite H1092 jovial, as it was no easy task to get all of them into the picture-taking mood that Sunday afternoon. All in all, however, they posed very graciously lor pop, IUOIU, and posterity in general, linally, we find the Flashers in a jovial mood, probably because just at the moment the regulars are NOT pounding on the door to get help, please, with French or Spanish. And right here the BRIER PATCH pauses to say THANKS. Mrs. Flasher. for the beautiful singing we enjoyed this year in various assembly meetings. page forly-mu J' V.,-V , .

Virginia Boone is a handy package of dynamite on the football field, played for our Jayvees. Unlike his famous namesake, he drives around in a truck instead of taking off on foot through the woods. He is a quiet, likeable fellow except in the boxing ring where he tears them up with abandon. He inhabits the library during free periods, should be the well read man by now. He is an LLL. BOBBY BISHOP CLARK Box 161, Tazewell, Virginia As a P-G, Freshman, and Sophomore, Bobby proved him- self a fine fellow and an athletic star each fall. He cap- tained the Fighting Cadet varsity this fall, played end and defensive line backer. Bob also starred at Greenbrier College where we hear he played a strong line. He also starred in all intramural sports. We hated see him leave in January. REE RANDOLPH ELLIS RFD 1, Waynesboro, Virginia This color sergeant has an outstanding distinction among his many other honors. His buddies say he is the only cadet ever able to out-talk Major Keene, and they are considering putting a silver plaque in the P-X where the victory oc- curred. He is a good shot on the rifle team and in the classroom. Page fifty-ffwf RONALD PETER GEORGE 6 Linden Ave., Salem, Massachusetts This long, tall, handsome fellow came from the Witchcraft section of America. Over-anxious to go home for Christmas vacation in 1953, he was reduced to ranks, but worked his way back up again, and is sergeant first class in C Company. He is a good basketball player. He runs the mess hall with an iron hand. And he has the College gals under his thumb, according to one envious cadet. JAMES ROBERT LENNON 221 Locust St., Coshocton, Ohio He proudly carries the guidon for Co. A, also leads a squad, and also operates an all-night cafeteria along with roommate Ellis. He sttaggled in a bit late last year. His favorite sport seems to be hill climbing enroute to the Hill across town. He can be easily spotted in any crowd due to that really blond hair. JACK MARLAND McDOWELL Second Creek, West Virginia This good West Virginian comes from over in the hills Union way. He played jayvee football his first year, then moved up to the Fighting Cadet varsity. McDowell is also another Daniel Boone on the rifle team. He upholds the standards of the famous Lewisburg Leisure Lovers, oldest organization at GMS. Cofdge LSJOIGAOMQOPQJ RAY HAROLD MANKINS Box 421, Lewisburg, West Virginia This Lewisl urg Leisure Lover is able to make good grades in spite of that LLL designation, he is a member of our Owls Club. Ray started last year as a private in D, became a private first class before june, and this year was jumped to corporal, then to sergeant, all in Co. D. He works in the armory where he may be seen cleaning an M-1 or BAR. JAMES ROBERT PHILLIPS Fort Springs, West Virginia Here is another Lewisburg Leisure Lover who made good at The Brier. Jim played varsity football where he turned in a good game week after week. He moved from private to sergeant in his two years with us. Like a lot of our town boys, he kept his social life sort of a secret, but we often see him running around in his Chevvy with a load of femmes. JAMES ALBERT SIMMONS Paw Paw, West Virginia Big jim may be studying to become a biologist, as we hear he is interested in Bugs . He comes from the little town they liked so well they named it twice. A platoon sergeant in C, he is a likeable, quiet fellow- quiet in spite of the fact he rooms in the Perry-Miller-Shaffer Suite in the far corner, rear, where you never know what you will find. jim kept up the good record made here by his brother Lynn 1 51 D. HARLAN CLAIR STARKEY Box 60, Chillicothe, Ohio Starkey graduated from The Brier's preparatory depart- ment, just couldn't resist coming back for me, this year was a lieutenant in Co. A. He was also a fiery demon on the football field for the Jayvees, thus continuing a career begun as a Captains star, and this year played varsity baseball. He has also managed to keep up his reputation as a likeable fellow always ready to trifle at the drop of a musket. THOMAS JOHN TOIA 601 Locust PI., Sewickley, Pennsylvania This quiet spoken Keystone-State representative rooms with Ronnie Bromley up on D Company hall, helps run the affairs of the Junior outfit with the gloved iron hand. He is a sergeant first class. He can take a professional picture at the click of a shutter, although brother Frank has done most of the camera snapping this year. Tim is a popular cadet. RAYMOND LAWRENCE UPDIKE 511 Adams St., Montgomery, West Virginia This member of Co. C, who helped the Crack Company rating last year, has had a busy collegiate career at The Brier. He played intramural basketball, played two years of varsity football as an outstanding lineman, was a varsity track man, belonged to the G Club, nd went from private to sergeant in military, thus getting into the Noncomms Club.

Games which were lost could have been won with just a change in the bounces here and there, and each week-end bought new thrills as the Fighting Cadets battled it out, trying hard all the way. Greenbrier,12-Emory 8a Henry College Juniors, 2 The GMS gridders opened the season by downing Emory 84 Henry 12-2. Mouse Hillard sparked the Cadets by his briliant running in the first period. GMS scored in this quarter when Quarterback Gene johnson broke off tackle and traveled 40 yards down the sidelines to pay dirt. Don McClintock's attempt for the extra point was blocked. Neither team scored in the second period, so GMS still led at the half time 6-0. In the third period with about five minutes gone, Greenbrier's little 165-lb. halfback, Mouse Hillard, electrified the crowd with a 45-yard run off guard to give the Cadets a 12-0 lead. Don Mc- Clintock's attempt for the extra point was wide. In the fourth quarter, Emory 84 Henry scored when Ed Schroth, tackle, downed Gene johnson in the end zone for a safety. GMS gained 164 yards on the ground to a scant 92 for Emory 84 Henry. The passing yardage also favored the Cadets by a 93 to 48 advantage. air.. we MCOFJ GMS Opponent Store 12 E. 8: H.

Neither team could get into high gear to score in the first period, but in the second quarter Greenbrier's versatile Quarterback, Gene johnson, scored from the two-yard line to climax a 78-yard drive. Don McClintock kicked the extra point. The only score of the hotly matched second half came with about three minutes remaining when Rock Laquinta and Acer Lawrence tackled halfback johnny Gumpf in the end zone for the two points. On the preceding play, Kenny Pond and Dick Freeman had thrown VMI's jack Zyod for a loss back to the 2-yard line, which set up the safety. The Cadets' brilliant defense led by Laquinta, Free- man, Lawrence, and Wartzack gave a fine exhibition of football. GMS led in ground yardage by a count of 125 to 65 for VMI. --- GMS also led in passing 82 to 75. HEAD COACH TURLEY GMS, O-Columbian, 7 Greenbrierls hopes for an unbeaten record faded when a strong Columbian Prep School team from Wzishington, D. C., defeated the Cadets by the score of 7-0. The game can best be described as a defensive battle, as both teams' brilliant defense outshadowed their offenses. Key pass interceptions and hard line play threw back at least four Greenbrier scoring threats. Columbian brought back the opening kickoff to midfield but on the first play Bob Dixon recovered a fumble on the visitors' 44 and jack Hillard punted out on the Columbian ll. Fred Wartzack reeled off two I5-yard runs, but a l5-yard penalty, the only major penalty of the game, plus a Greenbrier fumble recovered by Leon- ard Parks, stopped the threat as the quarter ended. Al Cash intercepted a Columbian pass and raced 12 yards back to the Columbian 43, but an- other interception by Clauss stopped the scoring threat. Columbian then moved the ball to the Greenbrier 28 where Tom Lukisk threw a pass to Ed Bibbons for a touchdown to make the score 6-0 in favor of Columbian. The point was kicked. A-5... .. a- LMA.

Late in the fourth period the fans almost witnessed a Frank Merri- we1l Hnish as Gene johnson, unable to pass, skirted the sidelines, but was finally caught from behind and downed on the Columbian 30-yard stripe. First clowns were 12 to 9 with the Cadets on the long end. GMs, 14-MMA, 7 Greenbrier got back in winning stride as Quarterback Ronnie Bromley, substituting for in- jured Gene johnson, fired two TD passes to give GMS a 14-7 victory over MMA at Woodstock, Va. GMS took the opening kick off, and drove 76 yards in 12 plays with the pay-off being a 15- yard aerial from Bromley to Ted Clark, who then scrambled 15 more yards into the end zone for the first score of the game. In the second quarter Massanutten's quarterback jerry Williams went over from the two yard line, terminating a 67- Wi11Gene Johnson get loose? yard drive, to tie the score 7-7. The third quarter Gem- Johnson with ball, Kenny pond moving fast was fought to a stand still, but in the fourth quarter, Bromley again threw a TD heave of 20 yards, this time to Bob Dixon, who then ran 10 more yards into the end zone to give the Cadets a 14 to 7 win. Don McClintock added both extra points. GMS led in rushing 268 to 210, but was on the short end in first downs, 14-12. GMS, 19-Fork Union Military Academy, 26 Greenbrier lost on offensive battle to FUMA in Virginia when Elmer Collins, FUMA half- back, put on a terrific show. Ted Clark went 60 yards to the two, then plunged over, to tie the score 6-6 in the first quarter. Gene Johnson ran 15 just before the half ended and Clark converted to tie the game at 13-13. After DeLuca went 70 yards to put FUMA ahead 20-15, Clark returned a punt 50 yards, but the try for point was no good and FUMA led 20- 19. FUMA scored again on a keep play in the final few minutes of the game. GMS, 14-Staunton Military Academy, 16 Staunton came from behind in the final min- utes toi defeat the Fighting Cadets 16-14 to win Greenbrier's Homecoming Day game. David Lloyd, SMA's brilliant halfback, raced ar-ound end 15 yards for the vital TD and kicked the extra point to erase Greenbrier's 14-9 advantage. GMS had gained a seemingly safe lead with about three minutes to go after Ted Clark returned a punt 20 Fumble! yards to the Staunton 8. Then Clark banged over page eighty-two '-up W!

THE FOOTBALL SEASON IN REVI'EW Continued for the score. Don McClintock kicked the extra point. Four Cadet fumbles led to Staunton's first tally. A recovery by the Virginians on the GMS 7 gave Dicky Powers a chance to score. GMS marched from mid-field in the third period with Freddy Wartzack scoring on a short buck and McClintock converting. In the fourth period Staunton drove to the GMS eight, where the Cadets held, but Dave Lloyd kicked an 8-yard field gcal to put Staunton ahead 9-7. GMS came back with a sustained drive to go ahead again, but Staunton still had time to pull it out of the fire. First downs were 14-13 with GMS on the short end. GMS, 0-Baylor, 6 Baylo-r,Prep of Chattanooga, Tenn., struck through the air on a 42-yard play in the final seconds of the first half to defeat Greenbrier Mili- tary School, 6-0. A good old-fashioned rock 'em, sock 'em thriller, it was the second loss in a row for GMS. On the scoring play, Bob Bryant passed to Ellis Goodloe on the Greenbrier 25 and Goodloe raced to the goal, with jay Dyche's desperation tackle not quite in time to stop him. Greenbrier, 20-Ashland High,f13 Greenbrier Military School defeated the Ashland Torncats in Kentucky 20-13. The Kentuck- ians took an early 13-0 lead but Gene Johnson's 25-yard scoring pass to Bob Dixon made it 13-6 at half time. I Ted Clark ran back the second half kickoff for a touchdown and jack Hillard scored in the fourth quarter after a sustained drive by Greenbrier. Don McClintock kicked both points. GMS, 0-Marshall, 7 The Fighting Cadets lost another close one as they fell to a strong Marshall Freshmen eleven 7-0, when a last minute pass tried by quarterback Gene Johnson backfired into a Big Green touch- down. Marshall's Phil Fisher intercepted the Greenbrier pass on the Cadet 6 and slid over for the gamels only tally. Hall took a jump pass in the end zone for the extra point. The Green frosh just had time to kick off before the final whistle signaled a Marshall win. GMS threatened in Marshall territory the entire first period but the Green moved steadily over Cadet ground in the second quarter on a drive that was stoped by Freddy Wartzack's interception on the four. The Cadets drove to Marshall's 20 before Fisher took his turn at pass intercepting to end the threat and the scoreless first half.

The JV's opened by being drubbed up at Hillsboro 26-6. The following week, Dunlap High from Virginia had a rough time in belting the JV's 13-0. But then suddenly hard work began to pay off as the Colonels rose from obscurity to defeat a much favored Staunton JV team 7-6. In the final game of the season, GMS again took on the role of the under dog, but in a sensational comeback, spearheaded by the brilliant running of Leo Andy and joe Durrett. the Colonels tied Beckley 19-19. Greenbrier's erratic offensive, almost impossible to stop when at full steam, was led by the fine running of backs Crouse, Andy, and Durrett, and pointed by Capt. Bud Starkey's fine signal calling. In the backfield, Crouse was a star on both offensive and defensive play. while in the line Bob Doboy, jack Bair and Stan Nelson were often the big guns. page eighty-eight Cafafain goofgaf lm GMS Of7fJUIle?I11.f 6 .. , ..,.

The team opened the season by defeating the West Vir- ginia Tech jayvees 99-97. This game was played in the new Memorial gymnasium at GMS. Stan Groll, who was an outstanding player all season, shot and made two free throws in the last 15 seconds of the game to give the Cadets the victory. Groll was high point that night with 51.

This team surely had what it took. In the third game the Cadets produced a victory of 82 to 67 over Bluefield, Va,, College. This was the third straight victory. After Christmas vacation the Fighting Cadets returned to action full of energy to defeat the VMI Freshmen with a score of 70 to 61. The playing abilities of Groll, Cash and Mitchell showed up as they chimed in with timely points when they were needed. In the seventh game, for a sixth win, the Cadets toppled Augusta with a score of S5 to 21. The second team played the last three quarters after the regulars ran up the score to 29 to 1 in the first quarter. One of the hardest games for the Cadets to lose was the game played with the West Virginia Freshmen. Bill Martin was high man with 17 points, but with the whole team's hard effort they cou1dn't quite make it. In the last game of the season, GMS toppled Staunton by a close score of 76 to 75. This was one of the closest games of the season. Wade Hersperger led the Cadets in scoring with 56 points. Dave Goheen was second with 13. Dyche was third with 10 and Stan Groll had 9. Hugging Match?

It was the third setback in 13 games for the Cadets. The Little Mountaineers had trouble in the first period as they led by only 25-16. GMS had taken the lead at the out- set and the lead battled back and forth before the West Vir- ginia quintet finally took the lead to stay at 17-16. West Virginia's Bob Gardner and Pax's Don Stover hit for points with the score tied at 16-all and they breezed to the win. With joe Devine, Bill Martin, and Dave Goheen leading the way, the Cadets came within 10 points of the lead at 80-70 in the last quarter but didn't have the steam to overtake the highly vaunted frosh five. Stover, graduate of Pax High School, led the way for the winners with 28 markers, mostly on one handers from the side. jcey Gardner came in next with 21, with two others hitting in double figures.

A capacity house saw defending champion St. Francis of Brooklyn, exhibiting plenty of poise and class, drop a fighting Bishop Fallon High School of Buffalo 55-44, and Cardinal Hayes High of the Bronx outgunned Sacred Heart High of Yonkers 60-41 . . . In prep school battles, Worcester Academy of Worcester, Mass., edged St. Francis Prep of Spring Grove, Pa., 54-31, and a powerful Greenbrier Military School quint routed New York Military Academy of Cornwall-on-Hudson 64-62. Greenbrier looked like the scrappiest club in the tournament as it completely overwhelmed an outclassed New York Military five. Coach Al Morgan had plenty of top notch bench strength. 33rd ANNUAL EASTERN STATES TOURNAMENT-CContinuedJ . . . Big Wade Hersperger was the key to the West Virginia scoring attack as he whipped in 23 points on a variety of shots. It is diflicult to single out any individual star on the Greenbrier squad as all the boys played admirably. Stan Groll, Bill Martin, joe Devine and Paul Mitchell came through to live up to their ad- vance notices, with Mitchell doing a whale of a job off the boards. SECOND ROUND Glens Falls Port-Star St. Francis defeated Cardinal Hayes High 55-50 in the opening game. The West Virginians came up with another hustling performance to turn back a sharp Bay State team which was den- nitely in the game most of the way. Worcester took an early 14-9 first quarter lead and kept up the fast pace to enjoy a 17-15 in- termission spread. The Fighting Cadets from Greenbrier displayed another well-rounded attack, but the scoring parade was divided be- tween Stan Groll and Wade Hers- perger, who poured in 15 and 12, respectively. ' 18-Foot Message GMS, from Lewisburg, W.

Basketball Coach of the Year in our book, and a splendid choice! Clodmpiomloip Rozmd GREENBRIER MILITARY I-IALTS ST. FRANCIS FOR EASTERN STATES TITLE Cddeti' All-Ord Power in Second Half Checker Strong Terrier Defenderf 49-47 Resourceful and poised under pressure of a bitter second half struggle, Greenbrier Military School of Lewisburg, W. Va., repelled fighting St. Francis Prep of Brooklyn, 49 to 47, to win the Eastern States Tournament championship. The Cadets were geared to victory on this one and the capacity throng witnessed the finest, most heart-thumping game of the tourney as Greenbrier broke a 19-all half-time tie and turned on the power for a victorious last-half surge. Rugged Dave Goheen ripped underneath in the first 10 seconds of the final half for a Cadet field goal to break the tie and put the Dixieland forces into a lead they never lost through the thun- derous last two periods. St. Francis, a great team under pressure, met more than its match. The Terriers rammed to within one point of the Cadets as the third period neared its close but failed to gun the lead. Green- brier held on in the stirring fourth period with smart, cool playing, again staving off St. Francis' threat by putting on a back-breaking surge that sent them six points ahead with less than two min- utes left. This decisive assault, which exemplified the Cadets' all-around team performance, dashed the Terriers' hopes and then a brilliant freeze whisked away any St. Francis chances to repeat for the crown and salvage their fine 31-game winning streak. True Team Victory Greenbrier's forceful drive and speed, coupled with full team play, overcame the Terriers' big howitzer, Tom Stith. The Cadets put enough defensive clamps on this fine player to offset his re- markable scoring ability. The Terriers' had to worry continually about five men. Stith, beyond doubt a fine player from every standpoint, did manage to collect 17 Points and lead the night's scoring. But he was cut off from his usual monopoly on rebounds, bound up tightly at strategic moments so this point production was not too effective. Greenbrier was paced by Stan Groll, a man who just couldn't be corralled by the Terriers, and Wade Hersperger, who played a tremendous board game and helped shackle Stith in the process. Both tallied 15 points. Dave Goheen fired in eight but was particularly impressive for his field generalship and smartness in directing the Cadets at crucial moments. Paul Mitchell was the Cadet defensive trap for Stith, doing an effective job on the Terrier court great. Bill Harris and joe De- vine rounded out the fine full-team winning performance with their fine play. Three Beauty Queens Two More Against Augusta GMS 99, W. Va.

Coleman and Goheen pitched for GMS. In the seventh, Goheen got an infield hit and after a walk Dunham rapped a double to right scoring both runners. jay was out on a fine relay trying to stretch his hit into a triple. GMS 3, CHS ll GMS 6, B. H. 3 - Greenbrier returned to Covington and evened its record at 1-l with an 8-3 win over Boys Home. Carroll Coleman went the route for the Cadets, allowing three hits and fanning 13 Boys Home batters. jay Dyche was the offensive ace with two hits, including a double and second baseman jay Dunham sparkled on defense. GMS 12, B. H. 7 GMS won its second game of the season by slugging out a 12-7 victory over Boys Home in Lewisburg. After scoring 7 runs in the second, the Cadets added three in the third and two more in the fourth to wrap up the victory on a cold afternoon. Dave Goheen and Carroll Coleman split the pitching chores for the locals, and while found for only four hits, chipped in with a lot of bases on balls and hit batsmen. Goheen fanned eight and Co'eman struck out seven. GMS 2, CHS 4 Ten errors marred a well played game, but none of the miscues did much damage. GMS had three double plays during the game while Covington had one. Greenbrier scored first in the opening frame on two singles. a walk and error. The Cadets were held to three hits from there out by Covington's hurler, Reid. Warlitner's double. walk to Dressler and an error by the center Helder on Roach's single put the 'Virginians out front in the fourth and they were never headed. GMS 4, SMA 9 Greenbrier Military School booted the ball around like a soccer team against Staunton Military Academy and the Hilltoppers won a 9-4 victory behind the six-hit pitching of Phillips. page one hundred two Thumper Coleman deserved a better fate. He went the route for GMS, pitched an excellent game, fanned ll and allowed only 5 scattered hits. But the amazing total of 13 errors by his team- mates kept him in constant trouble. LATER GAMES Fork Union Military Academy defeated Greenbrier Military School 7-O, as Bobby Mayo al- lowed the Fighting Cadets only three hits, one in each of the last three innings. Rain fell con- tinuously from the fourth inning throughout the game. Greenbrier beat Dunlop High, in Virginia, 16-3 in a 7-inning game. After the third, when GMS scored 7 runs on 5 hits including Dunham's homer and Starkey's double, it was strictly no contest. Massanutten M. A., in Virginia, swamped GMS l7-2. The losers made 9 fat errors and MMA played flawless defensive ball. Bauserman fanned 6 GMS batters, allowed only 5 hits. Vickers, Carlisle, and Starkey put singles in a row for two runs in the second. Greenbrier made 4 errors, collected 9 hits, but scored only 3 runs as Staunton M. A. won 6-3 on 7 hits.

In the final game of the tournament a first was registered in GMS intramural history, Bud Starkey, of A Lightweights, became the leader of the first Lightweight team ever to capture the tournament crown. The A team did this by com- pletely outshooting, out-rebounding, and outplay- ing a bigger and more experienced B Heavyweight team to win 47-43. It was a team victory, as the shooting and rebounding of Starkey, Morrison, Shahan, and Brodkorb, plus the fine play making of Peterson and Harless, led to the win. The ex- cellent shooting of Jack Hillard and the good re- bounding of Jelly Scheder kept B in the thick of the battle.

Reorgan- ized under the direction of Ca t. ames Re nolds, adviser, and limited to lifteen active members, this P Y group has been an important part of life at The Brier in 1954-55. The young Bradys, Zamkoffs, and Gowlands, covering every event of importance around the school and spending many hours in the dark in the laboratory on C stoop, have produced a num- ber of photographic masterpieces Bits of school life have been permanently recorded in both school and other publications as a result of the zeal for reporting the truth through the camera's eye. Guided by the principle of training photographers for next year, the Camera Club members have served the dual purpose of supplying pictures for reproduction and instruction for neophytes. one lmmlrell tu 'C'Illl'efll'L' 1 Standing in bark, left to right: Zicafoose, W.

Moore and the Moore family, stood beside Mr. Hart as the former president of the Buckeye Chapter pre- sented the plaque to Greenbrier.

It shows Bill lifting 1000 pounds with one hand. Another picture didn't turn out too well, for which we are sorry- as it showed Bill hanging out a window with the sash down on his neck. This one represents Bill reading up on the latest, planning to send his boy to Greenbrier. We now oilicially salute Bill as Big Wheel Martin. page one hundred Ilairty-four These survivors of the Spanish-American War include Acosta, Alvarez, Briceno, lnglesias, Hurst, Robledo, Prado, A., E., and M.

You might bring riding gear, too, if ycu feel like adding riding to tennis and golf. Sure, you'll need them. There's everything to do at The Green- brier and you'll want proper equipment. No one just sitsg they're going all the time. Shucks, Pop, it's in the air. u 'Say you'll come, Dad. It would make a swell holiday. I'll call the hotel right now and make reservations. With this much notice, they'll have a good room for you, don't worry about that. n That's swell! I'll get you fixed up right away. And, Boy, what a welcome you'll have. IP. S.
