A Photograph y Qxocutvzl by Arthur Studios, Inc., Qin Qian ieeger, '06 wa Ezhicate This Qnnual THE 1929 ANNUAL Qian issuer mHERE is no more fitting person to whom this volume could possibly be dedicated than to Alan Seeger, of the Class of 1906. Held high in the affection and esteem of all who knew him, it is he whose praises the French school children sing, whose statue stands on top and whose poems are carved into the sides of the Monument Eleve au Volontaires Ameri- cains Tombes au Champ D'Honneur, in the Place des Etats-Unis, in Par- is, to whom the State of Pennsylvania has dedicated a State Forest Pre- serve, and who has been highly honored by all the Allied Powers. His was a very rare spirit, his was the record of a short life, into which was crowded far more of keen experience and high aspiration of the thrill of sense and the rapture of soul-than is given to most men, even of high vitality, to extract from a life of twice the length. Alan Seeger had barely passed his twenty-eighth birthday, when, charging up to the German trenches on the field of Belloy-en-Santerre, his 'escouade' of the Foreign Legion was caught in a deadly flurry of machine-gun iire, and he fell, with most of his comrades, on the blood-stained but reconquered soil. To his friends the loss was grievous, to literature it was-we shall never know how great, but assuredly not small. If ever there was a being who said 'Yea' to life, accepted it as a glor- ious gift, and was determined to live it with all his might, it was Alan Seeger. There follows a brief summary of his life, based on the intro- duction to his Peoms, by William Archer. Alan Seeger was born in New York City on June 22, 1888, of old New England parentage. His early youth was spent at the Seeger homestead on Staten Island, just across the bay from New York. In 1898 the family moved back to New York and Alan took up his education at the Horace Mann School. But two years later the Seegers removed to Mexico, where some of the most impressionable years of his youth were spent. Here he and his brother and sister lived and played in that land of warm sunshine, bright colors and smiling faces, a country rich with the mingled tradi- tions of ancient Spain and the Empire of Montezuma. But after an at- tack of scarlet fever, the altitude of Mexico City was thought to be too great for Alan's health, and he was sent north to school. He seemed predestined to environments of beauty. When, at fourteen, he left his Mexican home it was to go to the Hackley School, at Tarrytown, N. Y., an institution placed on a high hill overlooking that noblest of rivers, the Hudson, and surrounded by a domain of its own, extending to many acres of meadow and woodland. After three years at Hackley, Alan entered Harvard College in 1906. Here, as an editor of The Harvard Monthly, he distinguished himself by his poetic contributions, by his wide and mis- Page seven E THE 1929 ANNUAL cellaneous reading and by the zest with which he entered the round of so- cial life at college. After graduating from Harvard in 1910, he spent a restless year or two in New York and decided that the life he craved could not be found in America but awaited him in Europe. Accordingly he set out for Paris the following year, which truly marked a turning point in his history. At Paris he lived in the spirit of the Eighteenth Century romanticist, taking up his lodging among the artists and students of the Latin Quarter. Paris has had many lovers but few more devoted than Alan Seeger. It was here in the French Capitol, surrounded by so much beauty on all sides that he produced the bulk of his work. In the early summer of the fateful year, 1914, his Juvenilia having grown into a passable size, he went to London to meet his father and with a view of having his poems published. Alan said good-bye to his father on July 25, two days after the Austrian Ultimatum had been sent to Serbia, and the very day that the Serbian reply had been rejected and the Austrian Minister recalled from Belgrade. The wheels of fate were al- ready whirling. Seeing a European war inevitable, Alan returned to Paris leaving his poems in the care of a printer at Bruges enroute. War had not been declared three weeks when, together with forty or fifty of his fellow-countrymen, he enlisted in the French Foreign Legion. He him- self gave adequate reasons for the action in a letter of the following May: 'Why did you enlist?' In every case the answer was the same. That memorable day in August came. Suddenly the old haunts were deso- late, the boon companions had gone. It was unthinkable to leave the danger to them and accept only the pleasures oneself, to go on enjoying the sweet things in life in defense of which they were perhaps even shed- ding their blood in the north. Some day they would return, and with honor-not all, but some. The old order of things would have irrevocably vanished. There would be a new companionship whose bond would be the common danger run, the common suffering borne, the common glory shared. All during that year and the next Alan lived the horror and the strug- gles of a soldier in the trenches. He was in the thick of the fighting the whole time, with the dead, the dying and the wounded all about him. On the lst of July the great advance began. At six in the evening of July 4th, the Legion was ordered to clear the enemy out of the village of Belloy- en-Santerre. Alan Seeger advanced in the first rush, and his squad was enfiliated by the fire of six German machine guns, concealed in a hollow way. Most of them went down, and Alan among them-wounded in sev- eral places. But the following waves of attack were more fortunate. As his comrades came up to him, Alan cheered them ong and as they left him Page eight mm THE 1929 ANNUAL behind, they heard him singing a marching song in English. They took the villageg they drove the enemy out. NeXt morning Alan Seeger lay dead. He wrote his own best epitaph in his 4'Ode In Memory of the Am- erican Volunteers Fallen for Francef' And on those furthest rims of hallowed ground Where the forlorn, the gallant charge expires, When the slain bugler has long ceased to sound, And on the tangled wires The last wild rally staggers, crumbles, stops, Withered beneath the shrapnel's iron showers :- Now heaven be thanked, we gave a few brave drops, Now heaven be thanked, a few brave drops were ours. I HAVE A RENDEZVOUS WITH DEATH I have a rendezvous with Death At some disputed barricade, When Spring comes back with rustling shade And apple blossoms fill the air. I have a rendezvous with Death When Spring brings back blue days and fair. It may be he shall take my hand And lead me into his dark land And close my eyes and quench my breath. It may be I shall pass him still. I have a rendezvous with Death On some scarred slope of battered hill, When Spring comes 'round again this year And the first meadow flowers appear. God knows 'twere better to be deep Pillowed in silk and scented down, Where Love throbs out in blissful sleep, Pulse nigh to pulse, and breath to breath, Where hushed awakenings are dear . . . But I've a rendezvous with Death At midnight in some flaming town, When Spring trips north again this year, And I to my pledged word am true, I shall not fail that rendezvous. -Alain Seeger.

To some it brings sadness-at leaving behind those friends who have come to mean so much-but it brings hap- piness to all of us as well, having at last attain- ed the goal for which we have striven so long. As we line up for a final review, our class looks just about the same as it did back in the fall of 1928, save for those few who found the trail too steep. As a class, we are proud of our accomplishments, for we sincerely feel that we are leaving a school that has been bettered by our presence and activities. For some of us the journey has been one long, continuous, up-hill grind, for others the go- ing has not been so hazardous 5 for all of us, nev- ertheless, it has been a profitable adventure, and one wherein we are happy to have played a part. Now that the end has come, the Class of 1929 takes this opportunity to extend its congratula- tions to all Senior' Classes of the future for their good fortune, and its most sincere appreciation to the Faculty and all those bound to Hackley for making our life here so full of profit and enjoy- ment.

That distinguish- ed countenance opposite could suggest no lower office than Presi- dent of the class, in which conjecture you have guessed correctly. In his four years at Hackley, A. T. Day has made a name for himself that anyone might well envy. A glance at the list of accomplishments on the opposite page, positions held and memberships in organizations will tell as convincingly as anything the reason for this. When he came to Hack- ley in the fall of 1925 his natural athletic ability asserted itself and he soon earned positions on all the major teams, of which he has been a most valuable member ever since. It was a regular occurence for A, TY, to make 40, 50 and 60 yard runs on the gridiron, the people laugh at the ease with which he clears the jumping bar when others strive and fail. Rare- ly does he come out of a meet with less than fifteen points. Four school records have fallen since his advent. But he has other merits aside from athletic prowess. It was a difficult task to step into the role of president upon the departure of Schuyler C. Schenck and even more difficult to fill it as capably as he has. But A, T. is naturally destined for leader- ship and assumed his new duties with ease and skill. A. T. , however, does not confine his activities to school circles. In extra-curricular doings he is just as much in the van and is called affectionately Father Day by his cohorts of admirers and companions-in-evil. His popularity, how- ever, doesn't end there. Whether playing the gallant with the wives or entertaining the girls from Weaver's, he is the idol of them all. Let us not be too severe with him, though, for aren't we all in varying degrees afflicted with this same infirmity? Becoming serious again, in A. T.'s graduation this year the school realizes fully the extent of its loss. No more will it see his careless, striding figure, smile at his boyish Caprice, or feel the influence of his singular personality. We have great expecta- tions of you, A. T., old boy, whether you go to Cornell, Pennsylvania, or some other university.

THE 1929 ANNUAL EXT in our ranks comes one Charles Vandervoort Dresser, Es- quire, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, New York, and points on all sides and in between. Chuck is really the grandfather of our class, the pion- eer who has blazed the trail for '29 all down through the years. As far as we can find out he has paid class dues since most of us were knee high to a grasshopper. Last year Chuck left us for a time to join a more mod- ern country club down in Jersey and we were afraid that we had lost our veteran for good. But last September Charlie decided to forsake the Jersey swamps and return to the hills of Westchester to fill up the gap he had left in our ranks six months before. Now Chuck isn't really cyni- cal, you know,-he just doesnlt talk much and some people have the im- pression that if you don't gab all day you must be cynical, sophisticated or have an inferiority complex. But as for sophistication, well, just ask Mr. Loftus! Several years ago it began to bud and before long it had burst into full bloom,-and it's far from going to seed at the present time too! We certainly have to hand it to Chuck when it comes to getting permission to go to New York on Saturdays. He certainly knows his business from one end to the other. It certainly didn't take Pinkerton's to find out that all those little cards Chuck carries around with him were not for dentist and doctor appointments, but then that's considered part of his well rounded education received at this home for harmless humans on a hilltop. Chuck has become quite a figure about Hackley, sauntering across the Quad in Finchley's latest, and there will be a big holelleft next year when he leaves us, not for college, but for business, the bank- ing game is going to be the lucky profession.

Louie has graced various athletic teams such as football, basket- ball, and baseball. As captain of the last mentioned sport and manager of soccer, he was just a Uwhizf' Many a guard or tackle has fallen with a crunch under his onslaught through the line. In fact we have- a sneaking suspicion that he has put more opposing football players temporarily out of commission than any other man on the team-and it is all because he plays a hard and determined game. It won't be long, by the appearance of the numerous sketches in his room, before we shall be reading stories illustrated by Arthur William Brown, James Montgomery Flagg, and Lewis Allen Ebling-or, if he must have his way, all the married men in the class of '29 will be having the plans for their love-nests drawn by their old classmate Louie At any rate, he intends to take up architecture this fall at the University of Pennsylvania, where we all heartily hope that he and his pen will enjoy the best luck in the World.

Despite the fact that he tops all of us in age, he is one of the biggest rough-housers in the class. For the last four Junes, Jack has decided to drop his education and begin working for his father, but every September has seen him back among us-a fact which we don't regret. Fowler never says much at any time, he might easily be dubbed The Silent. He is, therefore credit- ed with having a great deal of wisdom and brain matter. We used to think that Jack had a weak constitution which kept him home most of the time, but after he went home for the one hundred and third week-end, using sickness as an excuse, we began to get suspicious. It seems that he was always sick at noonon Friday, went home, and returned Monday morning completely cured. Upon further investigation we found that instead of spending his time in Nyack, he was always at Storm King courting a certain Pansy Huyler. Just ask him about the night during the final play rehearsals when he took the last ferry for Nyack. The graft which Flower works in A. Tis English class is atrocious. He never has to do regular assignments, but gets away with a two-page theme while the rest of us sweat and swear for hours over a ten-thousand word book report. Jack isn't going to college, but is entering his father's business, which we are sure will thrive a hundred-fold more with his aid.

Red 3 THE 1929 ANNUAL QND now, ladies and gentlemen, allow us to present to you Mr. George Richard Hayes, better know as Red, Pat, or the Scars- dale Kid. George, who spells his name Hays', on Saturdays and Sundays and Hayes', on every other day except Christmas and Easter, is the cleanest boy in the Senior class--that is physically, of course. Any and all times, day or night, during study hall, Latin or Spanish class CGeorge says the water is much hotter during Latinj he is sure to be found in the shower, the room so steamy that nobody else can get in, and singing Mighty Lak a Rose, with that plaintively mellow voice of his. Other familiar, and more or less conventionalaspects of our red headed friend are winning the half mile, on the soccer field, lending his vocal organs to the Choir and Glee Club, guzzelling sodas in Russell and Lawrie's and leading the Lit Club meetings, of which organization he has the distinc- tion of being president. Perhaps the first time Red ever got himself in the lime light was when he and French and Owens got back from the Gunnery game at 1 A. M. and his car backfired out in the middle of tho Quad, rousing the Warden and subsequently bringing the wrath of the King and various other Deities down upon the heads of the three of them. Pat also made himself famous in connection with 125th Street. 'Nough said! But aside from all these claims to distinction there is one that so far outshines all the others that it will go down in the history of Hackley School. For George was the first new boy ever to be taken into any Sen- ior Class since the school was founded back in 1899. And the general effects were so favorable that now new boys can enter any class as long as they meet the requirements. That almost makes Red a pioneer in breaking down the barriers. We are grateful to Mercersberg for sending us 'Red last fall 5 he has fitted in wonderfully with the scheme of things on the Hill-top. And it is with regret that we see him leave Hackley after only one year, but he is headed for the University of Pennsylvania and nothing can stop him now. And if he doesnit let the Philadelphia flappers pull the wool over his eyes too much, we know that his Pepsodent smile and the shades of sunset in his hair will win him as many friends as he has made during his somewhat brief stay at Hackley.

THE 1929 ANNUAL UG URT and his Dodge, Curt and his Buick, Curt clogging in the Pool Room to the tune of Louisanna, or tearing to Solid class through the senior corridor, Curt running his mile in that old dirty track suitg these are the pictures that will come back to us when someone mentions Curt Howard and the old school when we have left and gone our several ways. They are brief impressions but nevertheless character- istic. Curt is one of the outstanding members of the class. Though or- iginally a member of the class of '28, several years ago he decided to cast in his lot with us and since then we have enjoyed his cheery personality in our ranks. Despite the handicap of being a day-boy, Curt has managed, in some way or other, to get into all the important organizations in school. As one of our best athletes, a letter man in basketball and soccer, he was captain and center on the football team where his iight and spirit were an example and help to the whole team. And we shall ever associate him with the track team on which he was a heavy scorer in his special event, the mile, as mentioned above. Besides having athletic ability, Curt is a gifted writer of prose. Ask Ludlow if his essays and stories were not extremely helpful to Hackley. On the Dial too, as reporter, his athletic write-ups might be mistaken for clippings from the Herald-Tribune. There is one thing Curt can boast of or lament, as he chooses, which is of so singular a character that it ,is unique. In his automobile, old Penelope, fmay she rest in piecesb, he lent the most signal aid to the school and especially the senior class in taxi service of anyone during the year 1928-29. We regret the lack of a suitable reward as expression of our ap- preciation to him and his car.

Any afternoon a good- looking blond boy in an H sweater, baggy ilannels and no hat comes saun- tering into Russell and Lawrie's and puts away the usual full house, chocolate-frosted and Lucky Strike, you may identify him as Mr. John Darlington Matlock Huey, an ardent supporter of Goldblatt's and 125th Street. Mat , beside being one of our oldest members, is also one of our most versatile. As an end of wide-spread fame he has been responsible for several touchdowns at the critical points of more games than oneg his Pennsylvania blood has come to the fore in that for two years he has made the soccer team, and his agility on the basketball Hoor has almost equalled his catching ability, which was one of the few stellar points of our baseball team this year. John is on all three of the publications and held down the coveted role of hero in The Travellers , that laugh pro- voking comedy which the Dramatic Club presented last April. John tells us he has to hide the cup he won as school boxing champion every time one of his Quaker friends comes to see him. Somehow we can't quite imagine Mat as a good Quaker, for as a scrapper his equal isn't to be found anywhere this side of Forty-second Street. One of John's little tricks is to trip down to the movies or take a prospective new boy out for a stroll during study hall and be taken out of baseball just the day before the big game. Another inane craving of his is for Robert Louis Stevenson, whose works he parades every chance he gets, whether A. T. asks for a didactic poet or a good representative of the Renais- sance period. But we can forgive him these faults and even overlook his religion, for John's cheery smile and blunt manner have become so much a part of our life here that we don't like to part with them. He is to be our only representative at Amherst next year the sits up nights humming Lord J effrey Amherst alreadylj and we're sure Johnny will make a name both for himself and Hackley and find there as great a host of friends as he leaves behind him.

W. Kittredge Company's finest brew. Yes, Kitty is the class distiller and for all we know bootlegger too! He keeps great jars of awful smelling, worse looking liquids in his closets-he gets the low down on the whys and wherefores and composition of alcohol in H. M.'s Chem class, and he straightway sets out to make his own. Kit ought to know what he's doing because as the winner of the Chemistry prize last June he was generally acclaimed the leading chemist of the school, barring the well known H. M. Three years ago, Kitty, a thin little fellow from way out in Cincinnati, came to us, and now as we're ready to leave after all those years we're still glad he chose Hackley. Kit is the Vice-President of the Raymond Club and on the far famed Drama- tic and Lit Clubs. He is also the proud possessor of five Varsity letters and distinguished himself in three sports particularly. On the football team Kit was one of those lightning ends, and many a clean, hard tackle went down opposite his name during the season, on the Hockey Team he was of inestimable value to that small body of hard fighting puckstersg but it was on the Baseball diamond that Kit truly made a name for him- self. After going through the entire season without dropping a single fly, he stopped Purvis' inevitable three-bagger in the Alumni Game with a one-handed catch that any big leaguer would envy-a fitting climax to a long and highly successful baseball career at Hackley. And as a poet Kit was one half of all the poets representing our class last year in the Hack- ley Book of Verse g Curt Howard was the other half. From all reports and from the tongues of the sages and grandfathers on the Hill-top we gather that there has always been at least one Kittredge among us for a good many years. But we're sorry to say that we think those good old days are over until the next generation starts coming along. For Kit is the last of a long line of Hackley graduates hailing from that old Ohio city, and befitting the last of his line he has chosen a good place to spend his next four years-Yale. We know Kit will make a great name there and help make Old Eli more famous than she is, and we're just as sure that he'll make as many good and fast friends as he has during the three years he has been with us. Here's to you, Kitty, bottoms up! Page fifty-three THE 1929 ANNUAL E Hart V w l f l 1 p l N Page fifty-four BEST STUDENT - MOST ORDERLY WILLIAM HARTWELL LUDLOW Madison, N. J.

Bi E THE 1929 ANNUAL mHE little boy on the left, ladies and gentlemen, is no other than VVil- liam Hartwell Ludlow. However, dear readers, don't blame him for that monicker, for it isn't exactly his fault. Introducing him we would just say this was Bill or Hartwell, as everyone likes to use that mid- dle name. Your first thought upon gazing at the opposite photograph was, no doubt: how does such a youthful looking boy happen to be a senior? We shall answer, with surprising alacrity: brains, just brains. Yes, f'Bill is the outstanding intellectual light of the class. That is an- other thing he can't be blamed for. We try to overlook the fact, but at times it is difficult especially when he runs a 93 or 94 average in his studies. However, Bill,' isn't one-sided. He isn't the kind that ceases to shine outside the classroom, not by any means. Besides editing the Hackley, our distinguished literary magazine, and being an important member on the boards of both the Dial and the Annual, he played hockey, soccer and basketball, did an excellent job as manager of the basketball team and lent his talented vocal chords to the improvement of the choir. As a social lion, Bill has no equal. One would say that such a bright lad is not apt to mix well with the boys. Let us disillusion you. Noth- ing more conclusive disproves this belief than the fact that Bill's room on the senior corridor is one of the most popular lounge rooms for seniors between classes or, for that matter, during any part of the day when they have spare time on their hands,-and even when they haven't. As for his adventurous spirit! Lying in bed some nights around eleven one will be startled to hear the fire escape creaking and vibrating. More astonishing is the fact that there is no wind to cause this. With a little thought, however, this seeming phenomenon will explain itself. When this happens you may be pretty sure our Luddie is among those out to enjoy the evening air. Bill will be at Princeton next year where about four years from now we shall expect him to win a Phi Beta Kappa Key, earning an extra holiday for our lucky successors at Hackley.

It looks like the mail, only it's too big, it might be that waiting list we'Ve heard so much about, but never seen, or per- haps it's a new Ford. No, friends, you're all wrong, it's Comp Miller bringing the current issue of The Hackley over from Vickerman's. You know Comp is one of these people who go about saying little and do- ing lots, who, though he never tells you, carries one of the heaviest scholastic schedules in the class. As one of our oldest members, he has stood by us through thick and thin, year in and year out. As a first bass of no mean repute he has given his willing and wanted support to the Choir, Glee Club and the Christmas Pageant for the past three years. UA. T. Cook names hfm as the best business manager The Hackley has ever had. And he also has the honor of managing Hackley's flrst tennis team this year. Probably forty or so years from now, after he has re- tired from business, 'fComp will be named as American Ambassador to Germany. He's already a well known figure in the German beer gardens in little old New York, and a solid foundation was laid for such work over in the fatherland last summer with Tony and Arthur and Bushy. But long before that day he's going to the University of Pennsylvania, paint Philadelphia red, study architecture on the side, and become an architect of great fame and fortune. fWe hope all the budding archi- tects of the Class of '29 don't flood the marketlj We know he'll enjoy Penn from the tales John Huey tells us about that gentleman's club in the Quaker City, and we also know that Penn will enjoy him just as we have for the past five years. For Comp has found an affectionate place in the hearts of us all with his quiet way of going about with a cheery word and a smile on his lips.

We really don't see much of him because he is one of the select C?J day boys, although during the Spring Term he decided to spend tive whole days a week under Mother Hackley's wings. Every morning somewhere between 8:15 and 10 o'clock a Pack- ard touring car of the Renaissance period rattles up onto the Quad and out crawls Mike-tive minutes late for whatever class he has decided not to cut. In fact he is second only to Owens when it comes to cutting classes. All during the day he is to be found in his usual hiding place, the Butt Room, a Latin book in one hand and a Trig book in the other, so that the only time we really get a chance to see what he looks like is at the Biltmore tea dances on Saturday afternoons. Just go in there and peer about for a moment and you're sure to Hnd Mal strutting around with some of the cream of the season's crop of debutants from Finch, Spence, or any other of the fashionable women's clubs in New York. There's no doubt about it he gets around all right. Every day for a week last spring 'tMitch used to get shot during the rehearsals for The Crows- nest g he was also a very efficient member of the darkening committee, and for the past two years has been on the stage crew. As a mainstay of the soccer team last fall he was very much in the limelight due to his clever head and foot work. Mike was also one of the members of that famous or infamous organization, as you will, the Dance Committee,- the ones who wore white carnations and organized Paul Joneses. Al- though Mike is seldom up on the Hill-top except during classes we found out many, many years ago that his pleasant disposition and jovial man- ner were the chief reasons why we liked him so much. He has been awfully generous with his car, too-especially after play rehearsals. But why didn't he bring up those sisters more often? We can scarcely over- look that. Mitch is headed for old Eli next fall, and what more could one wish him than that he may find as many friends in the Harkness Quad- rangle as he is leaving behind him on the Hackley Quad? He has that and more besides.

Another voice pipes up, Mouser, will you give me a general idea of what 4The Return of the Native' is about? Still he sits, chin in hand, in undisturbed compla- cency., It is not until a third voice, unmistakably that of French, breaks the silence with Where's that wandering mechanic? that Tony wakes from his reverie to gaze upon Bucket,' striding into the room, geometry book in hand, and accompanied by the belligerent Jewett who shouts, Hey! You blond menace to humanity, how do you do this proposition? In this little sketch we have endeavored to picture Mr. Anthony Perry Morse Cnative habitat, Ithacab and his position in this community for harmless humans. Tony, as he is usually called, by his many accomplish- ments in the field of mechanics and electricity, by the fact that he is H. M.'s star pupil, that he has enjoyed room privilege for a longer time than any other senior fyes, dear readers, he came here before Clint and Hartwellj, and that he has been on the list of ten highest almost ever since he entered our portals live years ago, led us to believe that he has perhaps inherited some of the intellect and genius of that famous grand- father of his who invented the telegraph, and the Morse Code. With his cleverly devised new switchboard and water rheostat he rendered in- valuable service to the Dramatic Club last season. But Moose also shone on the Grey and Black football team last fall where his line plunges and wide end-runs netted us a good many yards gain. He was one of Pop's 100 men, moreover, and rolled up a big score for the Raymond basketball team during the winter term. And though Tony's memory has gotten him into trouble once or twice when it came to recalling scores of games and just who won, he nevertheless has kept The Hackley well stocked with essays, book reviews, and those interesting trivia he seems so apt at rattling off. He is one of that large delegation headed for Cornell next fall, where he will, in the Engineering School on the shores of old Cayuga receive that training that will some day make him famous.

Tin THE 1929 ANNUAL 1 QND this, dear friends, is going to be all about Mr. Thomas, Innes Nelles, our only representative from that far famed center of good looking women, second hand cars and bootleg lemonade, Toledo, Ohio. Tom came to this sanctuary where birds, small animals and reptiles are installed in comfortable captivity on the Hill-top back in the fall of 1927 when we were just finding out what it was like to be high and mighty Juniors. QThat was before the Seniors took all such revolutionary no- tions out of our mindsl. But ever since Tom entered Hackley that Sep- tember he has made quite a name for himself on the football, soccer, basketball and track teams, and also had the distinction of captaining the soccer team during the past season. But perhaps Tin's greatest claim to distinction has been his brilliant acting in the Dramatic Club produc- tions during the past two seasons. He was particularly good this year as Mr. Peturson, the Swedish mate, in The Crowsnestf' Tom and his co-partner in crime and punishment, Chuck', Dresser, are almost as fa- mous and inseparable as that proverbial pair of Swedish twins, Whitney and Owens. But Tom and Chuck seem to stand in wonderfully Well with Warden J. B. Loftus, well known penal expert of Burns, formerly with Pinkerton's. How they rate all the Saturday trips to the big city is more than the best of us can iigure out. And then they make more or less punctual fortnightly trips to such institutions as Bennett's, Briarcliff, Cas- tle, Finch, Spence, etc. to give all the inmates a treat. As the chairman of that much heard of and little thought of organization, the Dance Com- mittee, Tom got himself in for a great deal of unrewarded work and worrisome details. It is he who is to be thanked for the excellent selec- tion of orchestras for the dances whether they were from Nick Koenig's troop or one of Bert Lown's snappy set. Tom is to be Hackley's only representative at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor for the next four years, where we'll all probably read about his being chosen as one of a certain Mr. Fielding H. Yost's Lightning ends. But whether he makes the football team or doesn't, has no bearing on the fact that his dry wit and winning personality are bound to make him as popular Way out there in the middle west where he came from as he has been during his two years at Hackley under the shadow of the Grey and Black.

So Abie, in selecting a school agent for his tailoring establish- ment, looks out for his business interests. Yes, Halliday, for that is his first name, of good Scotch origin, is the fellow who puts up those Suits signs on the Bulletin Board. He and suits, to those familiar with the inner circle of school life, are synonymous. Halliday, to the school at large, is perhaps the most public figure in the Senior class next to A. T. Day. He is a familiar sight on the track field during a meet with his list of events and score board in one hand and a megaphone in the other, dressed in his white cheer-leader's sweater. Besides being manager of the track team, he is partner in the firm of Whitney and Owens, Cheer- leaders fWho said, 'fEveryone may leave but Whitney and Owens? D. It's their job to organize Pep meetings before games, create enthusiasm, and then get everyone to cheer themselves hoarse during the contest. If you can imagine a more difficult task, you're a wonder. But these are only minor offices. As Editor-in-chief of the publication you are now enjoying, he has one of the most difficult positions in school activities. At all hours he may be found working away with a typewriter or set of paints and crayons in the Annual Room? The amount of work neces- sary to produce such a volume is not realized by the casual peruser. Also Halliday is our one and only poet. Many contributions attesting his literary ability may be found in The Hackleyj' of which he is an asso- ciate editor, while on The Dial his work and help were of inestimable value to that successful publication. To tell the truth, it is hard to re- member all the various organizations our energetic friend belongs to. He is, one might say, a Jack of all Trades, General Handyman and Class Manager, combined into one. To give such a person the credit he justly deserves, we can only say that were he to leave suddenly, three ordinary persons would with difficulty fill his role. At Cornell, next year, we have no fears for Halliday's success. We wish him the best of luck and urge him to take life easier. -,ah Page sixty-five THE 1929 ANNUAL l BEST SCHOOL SPIRIT - WILL NEVER MARRY Luke 7 in ,m , Y Q 'John' l JOHN I K f 'VFX . ., 'Tig Ny ,f7L.II'3 i. ,c- 2' Page sixty-six 1 H -4... 4 ' x 7?0'f'fCY ALBERT POTTER, JR.

THE 1929 ANNUAL OU are now face to face with John Albert Potter, Junior, Esquire, our only native son of Tarrytown. But such is not Luke's only claim to recognition, not by a long shot! He has been with us all these many years, and though somewhat handicapped by being a mere day boy he has become one of the most prominent Seniors on the Hill-top. His ex- cellent managing of the football team last fall brought him all manner of fame from all manner of sources. He is one of these steady going people who never gets ruffled or excited and who bolsters the general average of the class by his consistent marks, though others of us may waver and fluctuate. On the Lit Club, as one of the charter members of its now deceased parent, the Senior Civics Club, John gave us an endless supply of helpful suggestions as to the best means of not only settling questions and disputes but of conducting meetings. His talks on cur- rent politics and questions of state were also well appreciated. To Luke falls the title Best School Spirit from the willingness with which he undertakes any and all tasks, however disagreeable they may be, which he finds thrust upon him, and some that aren't thrust upon him but which he shoulders solely of his own accord. John is another of that foursome who are headed for good old Princeton next fall. Can't you just picture Luke as a captain in the R. O. T. C. there! Then when he comes home for vacations he'll have all the girls running after him even more so than usual. fFunny how these women are attracted by brass buttons and gold braidi. We have no fears whatever for J ohn's success at that reputable plant for turning out bond salesmen and safe crackers called Old Nassau, that is, as long as he can resist the temptations which his friend Mr. Swezey will undoubtedly place before him. As for Van and Hart- well, we fear more for their welfare at the hands of Luke than for him under their combined influence. But Johnny can overcome all these set- backs Cjust as we all lose our Hackley table manners in the course of timej and come through those gates the Tiger guards with colors flying and trumpets blowing. For Luke has been with us long enough for us to know that whatever he undertakes he's bound to finish and come out on top. So weire all behind you, Luke boy, good luck at Princeton next year and don't forget to come back to the class reunions! We'll miss you if you don't!

Three or four figures, coats and ties flying in the wind, and books under ar1n make a very hurried and dis- ordered exit, go tearing down the corridor and down the stairs four at a time. This, dear readers, was just good old Clint Swezey reading over the Vergil assignment to the Latin 6 class. Who says Clint is the worst nuisance? Why if it weren't for his 90's and 98's and such unheard of averages the class average would suffer sadly. And Clint's sermon write- ups and the accounts of Artie's Sunday evening recitals in The Dial are going to be missed next year just as his exceptionally fine book re- views of The Hackley, and we can't overlook the mention of that ex- cellent report on Strachey's Elizabeth and Essex. And in The An- nual Swezey's deft pen is responsible for more than a few of the des- criptive articles. As a Dramatic Club star we shall always remember him as the Sicilian valet de chambre, Maria. On the Lit Club his current event digests with which he honored us by reading every so often made him one of the few members of that worthy organization who really prac- tised the art of public speaking to any great extent. Whenever we have to get those last few lines of Latin translated or some of the French sen- tences done or get an idea of what Milton is driving at in Comus we just run in and consult Clint and our wants are speedily satished. Our little Butter Cup is certainly the ladies' man. Yes sir! Whether it's the Queen, Mrs. Russell, Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Hague, Mrs. Butler or Mrs. Cook, Clint is bound to be near at hand playing the coveted role of caval- ier to the masters' wives. Perhaps that's how he rates all the rides in Auburn convertables and yellow Nash roadsters and Buick coups . Fol- lowing somewhat in the steps of his illustrious father Sweez has picked Princeton as the next place to collect stamps and write book reviews. We feel more than sure that sometime during the next four years he will go Phi Beta and earn all the little Hackley boys a holiday, and we're just as sure that he'll be one of the coming literary lights on the campus and win himself all manner of distinction and fame. Here's to you Clint, yours to uphold the honor of old '29 within the gates of old Nassau! We know you will!

But by the huge profits gained from the business foresight that prompted him to lay in a supply of Lucky Strikes during christmas vacation and keep the whole class in butts during the quarantine, we would surely select the latter plan. We hate to lose you, Van, but the Tiger calls you on, so here's looking at you and wishing you the best of luck at Princeton.

Page seventy-two THE 1929 ANNUAL 3sT'S a cold, rainy, foggy morning in the middle of winter, you just know there is going to be hash for breakfastg Latin is first period and you haven't cracked a book. The first bell clangs loud and long, and as you creep shuddering farther down between the blankets you hear a booming bass voice from the end of the corridor break out with Mean To Me. That could only be one person- Beevus. The next of his little jobs is to come around just after the ten minute bell and see that every- one is getting up. But official gloom dispenser and class Waker-up are only a few of Baldy's many, many positions on the Hill-top. During his four years at Hackley he has been a class ahead of us until our Junior year. But Baldy's frequent and often prolonged vacations led him to con- sider membership in the Class of '29, How the change affected him we can only guess, but we are willing to stake most anything that we got by far the better end of the deal! He is the proud possessor of three major letters, one of which was for the managership of football in his Junior yearg all this Spring he was a familiar figure on the bench beside Ted Butler chalking up the runs, hits and errors and keeping the bats lined up. As Business Manager of The Dial he has accomplished almost the impossible,-he has, despite the endless amount of red tape and con- flicting infiuences, put that paper on a paying basis for the first time in its brief history. And in the same official capacity on The Annual he has accomplished the same feat with an even blacker prospect before him. For it has been years since an Annual has been known to even break even. And we do not feel that we have sacrificed either quality or quantity to do this, but that it is entirely due to Beevus' business-like methods. In fact he made so many trips to the printer's in White Plains that the Third Avenue Railway was considering him a commutation ticket when he found Eddie's Taxi would give him a cut rate and come all the way up to the top of the hill in the bargain! It's rumored they're going to stop running the trolleys next yearg they probably heard that Baldy is leav- ing. We need not go into all the offices that our friend with the six inch grin holds--the list opposite is self explanatory. But we should like to mention Beev's superb performance in the 1928 Christmas Pageant, when he took the role which Mr. Kellett filled in former years. Baldy isn't headed for collegeg he's another one of these intelligent Seniorsf as the King says, who are going into business instead of college. Some day he'll be manager of the Yanks, the nation's leading florist and on the Stock Exchange, but, he'll still sing before breakfast. Hackley is going to lose a lot in Baldy next year, he's leaving a hole hard to fill. And all of us, in our scattered haunts will miss his cheery smile and sunny dispo- sition. May the affection and esteem which have been his at Hackley fol- low him all through life! Page seventy-three Tl-IE 1929 ANNUAL -V, CLASS COMEDIAN - BIGGEST FURNACE - BEST DRAG FKBVYJY!

Yes, Biden is another one of those inveterate Swedes who have never quite gotten over the ef- fect of those girls and the Swedish punch that they came in contact with last summer in Stockholm, and who don't mind telling everybody about it either. But Bi's pursuit of the so-called fair sex isn't limited to foreign shores by any means, for Whit', makes almost weekly trips to Snobbs Dairy just to chat over the tea cups for an hour with one awfully smart blonde and get all the Rochester scandal, not to mention a correspondence in perfumed pink and lavender envelopes extensive enough to make his stamp collection as valuable as Baldy's. Bi rather put himself in the limelight by his little Santa Claus act at the Christmas Pageant, when he had not only the fond parents and our dear cohorts, the Faculty, but even the cynical Seniors rolling on the floor in hysteria. Class comedian he may be, but Biden's pursuits aren't all in the same vein. He got him- self called all manner of names we can't print when he offered to collect the Dramatic Club dues plus six bits, he did a goodly part of the end running for the Goodhue team, and was a close second to Bill Wink on the 220 hurdles in track. Where Bi truly shone, however, was in leading cheers with his co-partner, Halliday Owens. His faults we can overlook, since an unquenchable thirst for Sweden, being perpetually with Vose and Owens, and standing in well with the King are his worst, and we hate to think what Hackley will be like without him and his early morn- ing yodelling down the corridor.

From the very first he strongly substantiated the maxim that 'factions speak louder than words. That fall he rolled up a total of touchdowns for the Raymond team that alone would make any Goodhue see red. But Mun first came into prom- inence in his Junior year, when, from the dark recesses of the Warden's famous f?J corridor, he took to blowing the trumpet. In due time little Bart Hague arrived in Hale Tower and put an end to the trumpet blow- ing, but to satisfy his craving for music, he bought a harmonica and used to sit up all hours of the night playing sweet love lyrics in the dark, while Pop fussed around trying to locate the bird-like music. And now, folks, we see Munro as a Senior. He's still as quiet and if anything a little taller, but the amount of work that boy does leaves us all standing open-mouthed in wonder. Remember how he used to plow through that line for a gain of ten, fifteen and twenty yards at a time? Of course you all know that Mun is the editor of our thriving newspaper, The Dial, and aside from contributing heavily to the Hackley he has written a con- siderable portion of this book. As a photographer he is responsible for quite a few of the snapshots on the ensuing pages. There is no doubt about it, Munro is just about the best example of the watch in A. T. Cook's watch, clock and drum story of industry to be found on the hill- top. He attends diligently to all the little jobsg those little, name'ess, un- remembered acts of kindness and of love. He has taken up the trumpet again this year and toots a mean syncopation in the Orchestra. We surely appreciate the excellent room he bequeathed to The Annual when he moved upstairs to Mr. Brockett's corridor, where, as near as we can figure out, he and Tony have a sort of co-operative apartment or bridal suite, we can't decide which. Luxurious easy chairs, long tapering candles, no end of parchment-shaded floor lamps, colorful chintz at the windows, convenient ash trays fwe wonder if he hasn't been kidding us all these years about not smoking and doesn't indulge in an occasional Lucky Strike after lights!J-this is just an idea of what their room looks like, As long as we can remember Munro has been going to follow up the higher learning at that co-ed paradise high above Cayuga's waters, Cornell. And though we know he doesn't need it to get along, we're wishing him the best of luck and will miss him more than we care to say when the parting of the ways arrives. Page seventy-seven THE 1929 ANNUAL THE 1929 ANNUAL Q E-1l1 JN CONCLUSION we wish to mention our former class president, Schuyler Charles Schenck, IV, of Ossining, New York, who was forced through ill health to leave the ranks of 1929 shortly before Christ- mas. With his going there were left vacant many important positions in student activities to say nothing of the drop in the class average scholas- tically. For Sky was to edit this Annual, was a heavy-contributing member of The Hackley Board and Managing Editor of The Dial , chairman of the Dance Committee, former president of the Lit Club and manager of Track were some more of his many duties about school. We lost a hard, enthusiastic worker, a keen sense of humor, a sparkling wit and a corking good fellow when Plut left Hackley. We hear he's going to Amherst next fall and we wish him the very best of luck at that in- stitute of learning up in Massachusetts somewhere between the Berk- shire Hills and Smith College. Bust Qbrahuatzs JOHN ARTHUR POLHEMUS, '28 EDWARD MOORE PROCTOR, JR.. New York City '28 Teaneck, N. J. mag E COULD not close this chapter of The Annual without some word about our two P. C.'s, the first Hackley has ever had the pleasure of sheltering under her many gabled roofs. It just seemed like Ed and Poly couldn't tear themselves away from the old school last fall so they decided to come back for another year, occupy the famous Kel- lett suite, enjoy unheard of privileges and become famous for their excel- lent food. Poly's excellent football and Ed's usual quarter-mile stride netted our teams more than a few extra points in athletics. And on the Dramatic Club, Choir, The Dial and other organizations their help was of the greatest value. But it is wholly because they are such good fellows that we were glad to see them come back to the Hill-top last September and we're just as glad they decided to finish out the year with us. We are certain that next year Poly at Yale and Ed at Cornell will find as many friends as they have made at Hackley during their prolonged stay. Page seventy-eight IQRS 'S XX 'EK f X 3 sw A ig?

EST IS most fitting that, first in the line of the class of 1930 should come our class president, Alden H. Vose, Jr., who hails from Forest Hills, L. I. and Westport, Conn. Aldy has been with us for three years and, since Micky McLane left, has been our leader. This last fall Aldy was on the football squad and was elected manager for 1930, played goal guard on Mr. Howard's hockey team, and almost every day during the spring term, could be seen throwing the hammer or putting the shot along With the rest of Pop Lindsay's track squad. Aside from these athletic pastimes,,'fAldy has been assisting Mr. Hague in the choir and was an active member of the Stage Crew during the plays. JAMES MEAD BELDEN 5 VQEEP the five o'clock. What's that roar? Oh, thatis just Mr. P. L. Coffin shouting at placid James Mead Belden. Jim hails from the city where the trains run through the main streets, namely Syracuse, N. Y. However, we shan't hold that against him for he is a darn good fellow, even if he is one of the very few sophisticated members of our childish class. Jim was a star on the Raymond football team, a member of Pop,s track team, and will be next year's manager of hockey. In addition to his athletic tendencies, Jim is a member of the far-famed Dial board. Although we know that Jim is quite a fellow with the femmes, he is very modest and good-natured, and never arouses an inferiority complex in any of his rivals for feminine attention. Page eighty-one THE 41929 ANNUAL EUGENE HOLT CLARK EXT, ladies and gentlemen, we have our friend, Holt. Holt goes under the name of Clark Csometimes spelt Clarke, when he is not aroundb. He hails from either the distant hamlet of Pasadena, Cali- fornia or the nearby town of Princeton, N. J .-it's hard to decide which. Upon questioning him, however, we are told in a forceful manner that it is Pasadena. Ever since Holt came to us from Princeton Prep. he has been making a name for himself. He was a fast tackle on the football squad, in soccer a star half-back and incidentally captain-elect for next year, a good man on the Goodhue basketball team, and a hammer-thrower in track. Everybody expects that Holt will some day be an oil king out in distant California, and will invite us all out for a week-end. Holt has only one weak spot in his makeup-he likes to keep his bed tidy. A little trait which inconvenienceshis guests, making them sit on the floor. How- ever, keep it up, Holt, we're all behind you. CHARLES FRANKLIN DESHLER mHREE bells have rung, but in spite of the ringing of the bells and the tumult on the corridor, our sleepy classmate is still in the midst of some wonderful dream. Finally and probably much to Franklin's annoy- ance, Mr. Hartman tells him that he has two minutes before the last bell and that he had better start rolling. Fast! why getting dressed in two minutes doesn't even compare with his speed on the soccer, football, or track fields! Besides his excellence in sports, Ditch is considered one of the brightest fellows in Hackley. If he could only direct the energy that he puts into the various athletics into his studies, his scholastic rec- ords would be quite astonishing! Well, as the saying goes, Too much can't be expected from any man. Trouble? Frankly, we don't think he knows the meaning of the word! Recently, however, he has taken certain things a little more seriously, such as Mr. A. T. Cook's English. Since our friend has so many redeeming features, we feel sure that his likeable personality will make him popular as a Senior next year. Page eighty-two THE 1929 ANNUAL ROBERT KRUSE DUNN Q SIDE from the famous Pop Lindsay, Robert K. Dunn is the only decent human being we have ever heard of who came from Tenafly, N. J. Two athletic squads are proud to find Bob's name- upon their sacred rosters-the football and track squads. In the latter sport he ranks as a star hammer thrower and shot4putter. Bob is very musically in- clined and plays the lead sax in H. M.'s notorious orchestra. A literary talent is another of Bob's many qualities, for he graces the Dial board. His inherited artistic talent helped him to be one of the most successful stage managers the Hackley Dramatic Club has ever possessed. Although Bob is one of the chapel choristers, we can hardly begrudge this one vice to such a pleasant personality. CHARLES SAMUEL FRENCH UQEHUCKH is a big man around this school in more ways than one. Physically he is the largest and in athletic ability he is one of the foremost members of the squads. He played- in the line during the foot- ball season, captained and played right forward and running guard on the basketball squad, played first base in baseball and was captain of the tennis team. No one enjoys a good story more than Chuck and he can always tell at any gathering some amusing anecdote or some incident that has happened to him. At the end of each term Chuck generally has two or three days taken off his vacation, but he usually manages to leave with the others by some means unknown to the rest of us. We al- most forgot to mention that Chuck comes from Canton, Ohio. Page eighty-three THE 1929 ANNUAL ARTHUR MARTIN FRIEDRICHS ELL, well, who have we here? Oh! of course, it is the gallant Arthur Friedrichs of 110th St. and Riverside Drive returning from a gay afternoon in his far-famed Diana, the best and smoothest riding car in the world. This year Arthur acquired a saxophone which he is rapidly learning to play. He, you know, is one of Pop's bright lights, a favorite of Mr. Russell's and, as of course you've heard, he toured Europe last summer with Mr. Bushart, Tony Morse, and Compton Mil- ler. Any time between four and five, one may find several people in Arth- ur's room, loafing, chatting, and munching crackers, because Arthur is fa- mous for his afternoon teas. In this room one may also discover all man- ner of modern conveniences, including a motion picture studio. Arthur has always been famous for his temper, which is liable to be displayed at any moment, usually causing a complete demolition of everything in the im- mediate vicinity. Arthur has not accomplished as much as some of the members of the class either in scholarship or in athletics, but if ambition, hard work, and a pleasant disposition mean anything, he should stand high in the list. WILLIAM GEHART GABEL QND THIS, girls and boys, is to concern one Mr. Bill Gabel, of the hinterland, better known as White Plains, the seat of Westchester County and the Keith-Albee Theater. Bill is another Scandinavian en- thusiast-only his tastes run more toward the Danish than the Swedish. Every once in so often Ott gets a letter addressed in a neat feminine hand and postmarked Kjobenhavn, Rungstedt, or perhaps even Stock- holm, and then he's all smiles for a week and tells everybody all over again what a wonderful time he had last summer. As a soccer player Bill is quite a star, and his tennis, while not that of his younger brother, is nevertheless exceptionally good, but his athletic prowess truly comes to the fore in Pop', Lindsayls runners, when 'fOtt breezes around the cinder path for a clean, fast 440. Bill will be one of those to carry on the cheer leading next year, so more power to you, Ott, watch out for the nsmukke pigerl' and don't talar dansk too much! Page eighty-four THE 1929 ANNUAL EDWARD AUSTIN GUTHRIE, JR. ROBABLY the most bothersome person in the class is Ed, because, being the class treasurer, his one thought is to collect the class dues. Aside from this infirmity we can only find one other fault with him and that is that he hails from a hamlet in Jersey called Madison. Guth shines on the soccer field, and has long been the mainstay of the Goodhue basketball team. Aside from his athletic prowess , Ed is one of our few veteran actors , being also next year's Dramatic Club secretary and treasurer. CHARLES WOOD JEWETT U ' HEAVE ho! my lads, and here we have the nautical man of the class, Charles W. Jewett, of Hadlyme, Conn. Chuck's big am- bition in life seems to be to get just as much decorative junk in his small room as the law allows and then some. Last year Chuck made quite a name for himself by impersonating feminine roles in the plays, but this year he forsook the drama for the stage crew. Chuck was one of the mainstays on the Goodhue football team, made his letter in soccer, played on the squad basketball team, and ran the mile and threw the dis- cus for the track squad. Next year Chuck will be one of the cheer- leaders and will succeed Baldwin Vose as business manager of the Dial. MORTIMER SAUL LEVY ZST IS LUCKY for us that next in alphabetical order comes Good Old Mort Levy, who hails from'Rochester, N. Y., for these two are sel- dom seen apart. Mort came to us last year from East High in the above named city and we think that we got him just in time to save him from the evils of that co-educational institution. Although Mort solemnly swears that he will always be a bachelor, he seems to enjoy receiving letters from several girls that we know of. Mort was on the football squad, played on the second Raymond Basketball Club team, and was a member of the track squad as a hammer-thrower. Mort also adds occa- sionally to the general uproar of Mr. Brockett's corridor by playing the saxophoneg is in the Lit Club, and took boxing from Mr. Shaugnessy. Aside from this Mort will be business manager of The Annual next year, and has spent many weary hours on the Dial staff during the past season. Page eighty-five THE 1929 ANNUAL WILLIAM GRAEME PROUDFOOT U ILL is another of these day-boys, who find it so easy to be sick for a day or to miss the first few periods. This year 'fBill gave valuable support to the Raymond basketball team and also received the cup as champion of the heavy-weight division of Mr. Shaugnessy's box- ing class. He is as fast as greased lightning and also a hard hitter. He was a second string man on Mr. Butleris squad this year but next year we hope to see him in the first line. Bill is a fine fellow, and we would certainly like to know him better. CHARLES ALFRED SIMPSON QND NOW we come to our class mechanic, Charles Alfred Simpson. Simp has been with us for several years, now, and during that time he has held the school record for junk hunting, and general mechani- cal ability. As Mr. Howard says, his room is always several feet deep with tools and miscellaneous sections of plumbing. For all his faults, however, Simp is a good miler on Pop's team, and a very good stage hand. Although he hails from Norwalk, in the wilds of Connecticut, and is usually the butt of sarcastic remarks, he is really well liked, and an important member of our illustrious class. DAVID FEARS TUTTLE Um UT during his two years at Hackley has done much to uphold the scholastic standing of the class of '30 in which he holds the high- est honors as a good student. At the end of each half term he has al- most always had his name on the list of the ten best scholars of the school. During the play season Tut featured as assistant electrician. His accomplishments in this direction were all due to hard work. In fact we have known him to sacrifice his meals and his sleep in order that the lights might be right for the next rehearsal. Tut is now doing his best as assistant track manager and we would not be surprised to find a hard working track manager among us in '3O. Page eighty-six 1mm-E THE 1929 ANNUAL EVERETT ARNOLD WEBB OW, in the procession, we come to Arnold Webb, our greatest drama- tic artist and woman chaser. His dramatic ability has been proven by his election to the presidency of the dramatic club for next year, while from the number of letters he receives daily and the number of affairs he has every week we should judge that he will be married first-and probably divorced first, as well. Aside from these two outstanding points he has won his letter in basketball, soccer and baseball, is assistant ex- change editor of the Dial, and belongs or has belonged to the Civics Club. At odd times he wields a tennis racquet and golf clubs with skill. WILLIAM FREDERICK WINK UQQET OUT of the room, and stay in make-up this afternoon, Wink. Oh! What did I do, Sir. No argument. This is Mr. Bell's ultimatum nearly every day to Bill Wink, who possesses a peculiar knack of getting in trouble, without doing hardly anything to deserve it. Although Bill is a day-boy, he is in nearly every sport that the school boasts. He played end on the football squad, got his letter in soccer, played wing on the hockey team, and essayed the broad-jump, high-jump, low hurdles and high hurdles and pole vault in track. In the Dramatic Club, Bill was a highly efficient member of the stage crew. You can see him stepping out of Curt Howard's struggle-buggy every morning and preparing himself for the daily battle with Mr. Bell. We all hope that Bill boards next year, for we should like to know such an interest- ing fellow better. Page eighty-seven THE 1929 ANNUAL Ni EHE Junior Class this year has lost quite a few members through one cause or another, for although we started out on our road to be- coming Seniors with twenty-two in our ranks, we finished this year with but sixteen. Austin Hartfelder, another of the Rochester clan, decided to forsake us and transferred to the Rochester Business Institute to pre- pare to enter his father's business in the fall. Bob Moody, of Larch- mont, Bruce Owens, of Rye, Edo Van Winkle, of Paterson, N. J., and John Warner of Greenwich all found the enticements elsewhere too dazz- ling to live our frugal way of life longer. And Arthur Newton, that quiet, thoughtful boy we all remember entering in September and often being sick was forced to withdraw from school because of ill health. These boys will be missed on the football roll call next fall, just as Hack- ley's long corridors will seem a bit empty without their echoing laughter and comical pranks when we gather as a class for the last time, and set out on the last lap of our careers as Hackley students. We hope that each of them has found in the school he has chosen all that could be desired in the line of friends, athletic and scholastic attainment, and pleasant sur- roundings. We're sure they have! And we also hope that they'll come back to see us often not only next year but for many years to come. Page eighty-eight wIS'MWQxmxWIll5gMiQXmi?

These classes were also well represented on The Dial, the Dramatic Club, the Orchestra, the Choir, the Civics Club, the Meteorological and Philatelic Societies, and the Christmas Pageant. Outstanding among the members of the class of 1931 are McClelland in scholarship, Hutchinson and Wood in football, Forrest, Hotchkiss, McClelland, Mulock and Newbery in hockey, Forrest, Gabel, Mulock and Wood in baseball, Cregier and Pear- son in track, Gabel and Pearson in tennis, Alexander, Billman, Newbery, Redfern and Webb in dramaticsg Billman and Loomis on The Dial , Cregier on the choir, and Cregier, Devereux and Gorsline in the Christ- mas Pageant. The Classes of 1933 and '34, although they oiered no can- didates for the major positions in athletics or school organizations, never- theless substantially supported the Club and Junior Teams and such or- ganizations as Dramatics and the Christmas Pageant. It is to these boys that we look for the future athletes and leaders of school activities, and there is promise of much material from their ranks during the next few years.

Potter, Jr. EESPITE the unfavorable prophecies which were current last fall, the football team had one of the most successful seasons in the his- tory of the school. Although we tied four games, our team fought every minute with the determination to put the ball across the goal line and to keep our opponents from scoring. Several of the games looked as though they would end disastrously for us until the last few minutes, when, by a piece of skillful playing, a tying touchdown was scored. Our first game, against Mamaronenck, resulted in a 6-6 tie, Hartley of the visitors scoring early in the game. Things looked rather black un- til, with three minutes to play, a pass from Robertson to Huey netted a touchdown for the Grey and Black. French, however, by a very slight margin, missed the extra point on a drop-kick. Storm King likewise tied us this time, 7-7. They received a break near the end of the first half, when Juslin, their half-back, intercepted a pass and galloped ninety yards for a touchdown. The second half saw the ball down in Storm King's territory most of the time. Again Hack- ley scored, as in the previous game, on a pass from Deshler to Huey. Day rushed the line for the extra tally. i By the end of the Gunnery game, which also resulted in a 7-7 score, most of us were convinced that a tying jinx had seized us. Ebling, who had been playing a fine game, slid off tackle for Hackley's one touchdown, and French kicked the goal. Gunnery then scored in turn. The ball stayed in mid-field most of the time thereafter until our opponents started a well-executed attack. When they had reached the ten-yard mark Hackley held them for downs, when the final whistle blew. In the game against Riverdale we shook off our tying jink by win- ning a 13-0 victory. Day scored the first touchdown and the extra point, both on line plunges. In the second half B. Owens ran 05 tackle for our second touchdown, making a total of thirteen points. Hackley undoubtedly played her best against St. Paul's. On a wet, muddy field, by brilliant defense and perfect team work, we held a team much heavier and stronger than ourselves to a scoreless tie. The first break came when Huey picked up ia fumble and ran to St. Paul's ten- Page ninety-seven T' THE 1929 ANNUAL yard line. Then Day advanced the ball five yards just as the whistle blew, ending the half. In the third quarter Huey intercepted a pass which he ran back twenty-five yards. Despite brilliant line plunges and end runs by Day and B. Owens, however, our opponents held us for downs. In the first half of the Mohegan Lake game our varsity ran up a 19-0 score. Then, after a hard struggle in the iinal half, our second team man- aged to cross the Mohegan line once more, making the score 25-0. Up to the 16th of November we had not lost a game, now Morris- town, our old rival, loomed up high before us. The whole school to a man turned out and with hosts of friends, parents and alumni, journeyed in an almost endless line of banner-decked cars to New Jersey to witness the final contest between two undefeated teams. The season's last game, however, proved to be our Waterloo. With heavy, fast backs, an iron line, and a wonderful passing game, the Red and White Team defeated us by the overwhelming score of 32-0. Both teams played well, but Hack- ley seemed to lack some of the fight which they displayed so gloriously in the St. Paul's game. As for the players themselves: Captain Howard played a sterling game at,center. His passes were always accurate and well-timed. When- ever there was a pile-up it was almost certain that Curt had made the tackle. He deserves the highest praise for piloting us through so suc- cessful a season. In the backfield Ebling was the mainstay of the team. He not only made sensational end sweeps and line plunges, but his clean, hard, tack- ling prevented many an opposing team from scoring. His running-mate, Day, was always able to get away for consistent gains. In addition to scoring several times, this long-legged half-back showedsuperb tackling ability. Will, as full-back, made spectacular gains through the line, being able to rip through for five or six yards on every plunge. Deshler proved himself a level-headed, cool quarter-back. His ac- curate passes, hard tackling, and keen judgment gained for him next year's captaincy. Polhemus and Van Saun, the iron-men of the left side of the line, were quite capable of stopping all runs headed in their direction. 0n the offense they often broke through and smeared', the play before it started. The other tackle-guard combination of French and Van Winkle worked to perfection. The men playing opposite them usually received Page ninety-eight THE 1929 ANNUAL a hard drubbing at their hands. It was a rather common sight to see either member of this team smash up an undeveloped end-run. Nelles and Huey, as ends, starred on the defense. Whenever a run- ner came their way they 'Cpiled him up with little effort-and they were not so bad at Hsnagging passes, either. The other letter-men, Kittredge, Morse, B. Owens, Moody, A. Webb, and Robertson also deserve credit. They could always be depended upon to go in and fill a position with the spirit and capability of the regulars. The coaches, Mr. Butler and Mr. Lindsay, deserve the team's hearti- est thanks and our best wishes for an even more successful season dur- ing the coming year. October 6 .p....

Page one hundred burner I THE 1929 ANNUAL ,gg butter Captain Coach Manager THOMAS I. NELLES MR. GRAHAM LEWIS A. EBLING ACKLEY is at a physical disadvantage when it comes to having good soccer teams. In a school of this size it is impossible to be- gin play until after the last football game, because those who play foot- ball play soccer also. In the limited time thus allowed it is difficult for even the best of coaches to produce a very efficient and well-trained team. The season which ran from November 22nd to December 8th this year, as a whole, may be considered, in view of the brief practice permitted, fairly successful. Mr. Graham, our new coach from Brooklyn, who took Mr. Kellett's place, besides being a very good advisor was well liked by the fellows and deserves a word of thanks for his interest and help. Though a degree of teamwork was shown at times, most of the goals scored were made through the efforts of an individual player. Our defense was bet- ter than our offense since it is obviously harder to learn how to carry the ball forward than to stop it. The team's offensive power showed to best advantage in the Riverdale game which we won 3-1. Passing and team work scored the first goal when Deshler, on an accurate pass from Hart- felder, kicked the ball into the net, while Robertson, assisted by some of the other forwards, shot the remaining two. We played our best de- fensive game against the Brooklyn Evening High School when we held this experienced and well-reputed team to a scoreless tie. In a review of any athletic season it is only fair to mention individual players and give them what credit they deserve even though they may not be outstanding. In the last mentioned game, quoting the Dial re- porter, The ball was almost always in our territory and only the mir- aculous stops by French and fine defensive work and kicking by Jewett, Clark and Captain Nelles saved the day. At Pawling, Clark, who in- cidentally has been elected Captain for next year, was most valuable in protecting Hackley's goal and keeping the ball beyond the fifty-yard line. Captain Nelles at his left-half position continually spoiled Pawling's at- tacks in critical moments by sending the ball flying in the opposite di- rection with one of his hefty boots. Day, as might be expected, displayed an ability in soccer equal to that he shows in other sports. Unfortun- ately, on account of an injured arm, he was not able to play the whole season. Gable, in the forward line, was particularly active and figured largely in offensive drives. Webb and Kittredge showed occasional fiashes of professional skill. Austy Hartfelder did excellent work on the offensive. We shall miss him next year. Wink and Mitchell were also of no small value. Polhemus and Curt Howard were consistently help- Page one hundred three QQ THE 1929 ANNUAL ful at their halfback positions and our two husky full-backs, Will and Guthrie, proved themselves faithful guards of Hackley's goal, time and time again demoralizing the enemy's attack and driving the ball out of danger. C. French, our versatile goalie, who was ably seconded by Potter, most efficiently filled his position and was perhaps the most outstanding player on the team.

LUDLOW UILDING up his team with only two of last year's letter men back, French and Ebling, Coach Butler moulded a quintet which ran through a long and fairly successful season. Of the sixteen games played, eight won and eight lost, a large number were close and exciting to the last minute of play. The season started with three defeats at the hands of Ridgefield, Scarborough and Riverdale respectively, all of which were played on opponents' courts and were close games all the way through. Especially was this true in the case of the Scarborough contest, where with one minute to play and Hackley leading, 26-25, Chase, our oppon- ent's star forward, hooked a long shot from the side which fell straight through the rim and gave them a lead the Grey and Black could not over- come. After such an inauspicious opening, the losing streak was broken in a series of home games by defeating Woodmere, Berkeley-Irving, Flat- bush and the Faculty. In none of these contests was the score especially close, but the Faculty game deserves particular mention, because it was then that French scored twenty-five points while the varsity defense held Coach Dead Eye Butler down to twenty-one. After dropping a game to Barnard, the Grey and Black quintet continued its winning streak by downing Scarsdale on their own court, freezing the ball near the end of the game to win 27-22. In the raxt three contests, played at home, we suiered two defeats at the hands of a strong St. Paul's team and a fight- ing Bronxville quintet which triumphed by one basket, and gained a close victory over a hard playing Mohegan Lake aggregation. Two defeats on opponents' courts, one, our ancient rivals, the fast Morristown five, led by Bockwinkle's rapid cutting and sure eye which rolled eighteen points, the other from Trinity in their tiny, box-like gym, were followed by the last two games of the season, victories over the hard-fighting Canterbury team, which could not overcome the lead we gained in a rally at the be- ginning of the second half, and over the Storm King quintet, which was unable to stop our faster oiense. Among the individual players, Captain French stands out as high scorer in most of the season's games with a total of 168 points. His good eye added many baskets on shots from the outside to our score. Robert- son, second to French in score, totaled 96 points for the season, many of which were made by fast cutting under the basket to receive the ball on a swift pass and shoot it in. Also playing in the forward positions were Page one hundred seven THE 1929 ANNUAL A. Webb and F. Gabel, both good shots and fast at cutting in. On the defense, Ebling, who jumped center and then dropped back to stationary guard, was responsible for breaking up our opponents' offense, keeping them from scoring, and even intercepting their passes. Huey, who filled the position of running guard, was not only effective on the defense but also accounted for a good many baskets. Among those who played less regularly, Kittredge and Nelles were both fast forwards, and Howard and Polhemus good defense men. Next year, with both Ebling and Huey gone, Coach Butler will have to find some new guards. He will still have, however, French, Robert- son, Webb and Gabel, promising a strong oiense for the season of 1930.

HALLIDAY OWENS mHE HOCKEY team was very seriously handicapped this year by the lack of ice for the past two seasons. After having been on the ice as an organized team but four times last winter, with the exception of games played, we met the Brunswick School on the Millbrook Pond at Greenwich for the season's opener. Our players had as yet had no prac- tice on ice, whereas Brunswick had practiced together for weeks. As might be expected, the score was overwhelmingly in favor of our oppon- ents. Time after time we stopped the forwards as French caught the puck or a defense man captured it and started back toward the Bruns- wick goal with it. Nevertheless, the end of the first period gave the Brown and White players a 4-0 lead over Hackley. The second period was little better, as Brunswick succeeded in putting three more shots through the cage. The final period, however was the one mostly to our credit, we held the home team scoreless during the entire third, and al- most succeeded in scoring ourselves. On the 5th of February, in our first game on the school rink, the team made an excellent showing by defeating the Pleasantville High School 3-1. Day, Hotchkiss and Wink were the principle stars that after- noon, with Deshler's quick work at wing balancing up the team. Fast skating and accurate shooting were responsible for the successful score. During the second game with Brunswick, this time played on the Ten Acres Rink at Greenwich, we were again defeated, but this time by the score 4-3. Although the game was not noticeably rough, Day sustained a broken nose which kept him off the ice for the rest of the season, and Kit- tredge received an injury to his leg. The teams were fairly evenly match- ed this time, and although Brunswick had a slightly better team, it was a close and very interesting game to watch. Two days later the Grey and Black pucksters again met defeat on the same rink at the hands of the Greenwich High School and to the tune of 4-1. The game from start to finish was hard, fast and rough. Little penalizing was done and the game continued as rough as it started, and as the Greenwich players outweighed ours almost ten pounds per man, they had the advantage. With the loss of Day, it fell to Hotchkiss, Wink, Kittredge and Deshler to make the goals and keep the opponents from scoring. The final game of the season was played against the Storm King Page one hundred eleven , mmm mmm ?mwm THE 1929 ANNUAL School at the Bear Mountain Rink, Cornwall-on-the-Hudson. The Hackley team made by far the best showing of the year at this game against a team that has been on the ice continually since before Christmas, although the score was 4-0 in favor of Storm King. Three or four times Hotch- kiss or Deshler took the puck down to the opponents' cage but never quite managed to get past the ready Storm King defense men. This game was just as rough as the one with Greenwich High, but at Storm King several players from both sides were put off the ice quite a few times. As to the individual players, Captain Day was undoubtedly the best man on the team. His fast skating, sure handling of the stick and his weight were a decided advantage to the team. The other defense men, Hotchkiss, Forrest and Kittredge, were all good players. Hotchkiss came to Hackley a new boy just at the beginning of the hockey season and stepped right into a place on the team. His weight also was to his ad- vantage, and his long, fast solo drives decidedly to his credit. Kittredge, although handicapped by his weight, proved one of the gamest players we have seen in a long time. He stopped more prospective goals for our opponents than many a Ranger could boast of. Forrest was alittle light in weight to make much showing against some of the larger players, but next year he'll be right up with the best of them. Wink at center played excellent hockey the entire season, hardly ever letting the opposing player get the better of him. Newbery was substitute for center, whose weight also bothered him, but who put up a game light at every chance he got. The wing positions were held down principly by Deshler with the help of 'tWink,,' Hotchkiss or Kittredge, Mulock substituting. Deshler was one of our fastest men on the ice, accounted for a good number of spilled play- ers on the other teams and helped to uphold our end of the scoring. As for the goal guards, Polhemus and A. Vose, with C. French as substitute, too much cannot be said for them. As the majority of our games were of the defensive type it remained to the goal guards to play a more than important part in keeping down the score of the other teams.

BALDWIN VOSE 'mag ITH the five letter men from last year, Captain Ebling, Huey, French, Deshler, and F. Gabel, Coach Butler formed the nucleus of the infield which was ably supported by Kittredge, Mulock, and Day in the outfield. The team went through its rather long season not too successfully, winning five and tying one of the twelve games. In the first contest of the season which resulted in a defeat by Gunnery with the score of 5-2, Robertson's two doubles, one of which drove in a run, were the outstanding features of the day. Three days later, in the triangular league game with Riverdale, things looked pretty black for Hackley when the Red and Grey scored six runs in the first inning. After that, how- ever, we steadied down in the field, and by rallies in the fourth and sev- enth tied the score. The game was stopped at the end of the ninth, with the score 7 to 7, since it was already seven o'clock. Two defeats at the hands of the superior Horace Mann and St. Paul's nines were followed by an easy victory over .Scarborough 13 to 5 and two close contests, one with Barnard, which we won 4 to 2 with Ebling pitching and well supported by the infield, the other with Ridgefield, in which, after our opponents had scored four runs in the first inning, Robertson and Ebling tripled to knock in two runs apiece, making the final score 7 to 6 for the Grey and Black. Although the Storm King game, played on the rough field at Cornwall, was a disastrous defeat, in the next contest with Trinity we were victorious by the tally of 4 to 2. In the eventful Morristown game, in spite of Morristown's one run lead gained in the first inning, Hackley was holding her ancient rival off the bases and usually getting a man on, until in the disastrous fifth, Morristown rallied to score four runs and five more in the seventh, winning by the score of 11 to 1. The Berkeley- Irving contest proved to be the most spectacular and exciting game of the season. After scoreless tie for twelve innings, in the thirteenth, Gabel, who was pitching with exceptionally good control, walked one man and was hit twice to score two runs. In Hackley's last chance to score, Huey was walked, Ebling hit, and French got his base on balls, loading the bags. On Gabel's hit Huey and Ebling scored to tie the tally, and then Oakden, blowing up, walked in the winning run giving the victory to Page one hundred fifteen L Alumni, which the sch ninth to send Goodma lHDBH THE 1929 ANNUAL Hackley, 3 to 2.

I-IALLIDAY OWENS TH THE addition of Gorton High School and Peekskill Military Academy this year, our track team faced an even harder schedule than last season. The only meet we were definitely sure of winning was the first, a triangular affair between the Washington Irving and Irving- ton High Schools and Hackley. I Piling up the large score of 63 to 18 our chances for a sudcessful season looked pretty favorable. We suffered a fall, however, when we came up against Gorton High. This powerful team from Yonkers, with its championship relay team, easily romped away from our best quarter-milers and distance runners. We realized afterwards that they were totally out of our class and for that reason will probably drop them from the schedule next year. The Triangular Meet between Riverdale, Storm King and Hackley, an innovation this year, was easily taken by Hackley. Storm King, who placed second, made most of her points in the weights. In these and other field events we were noticeably weak and have been so all season. White Plains, which caused us no trouble last year, and whom we had all the chances of beat- ing again, telephoned at the last minute, and, for unknown reasons, call- ed OE the meet. Peekskill came next on the schedule. Though we beat her at the Interscholastics last year, that victory was no indication of what might happen another time and in a dual battle. They didn't prove, however, as formidable as they appeared, except in the pole vault and shot-put, and we won, 64 to 35. Horace Mann, likewise fell a victfm tci our faster men, but not without a stiff fight. By a beautiful sprint in the mile, Smith of Horace Mann, passed Howard, who had been leading all the way, just at the tape and won the most spectacular race we have seen this season. It was gratifying to Howard to know that, though beaten, he made his best time of the year of three seconds less than five minutes. Though A. T. Day and Robertson both broke school records in the half mile and two-twenty, respectively, they were not accepted as ofiicial, in- asmuch as there was some uncertainty as to the accuracy of the track. The Pawling Meet, for the past three years looked forward to as the toughest on the schedule, again proved itself to be so. In 1927'we won by one point. Last year they won by a similar margin and this year again duplicated the feat, the score being 58 to 57. In the running events, Page one hundred twenty-one THE 1929 ANNUAL save for the mile, Hackley ranked high, but was bettered slightly in the hurdles and field events, in which Day's firsts in the high and broad jumps and Will's in the discus were notable aids to our score. It is interesting to note that Hackley gained two more flrsts than Pawling, but two less seconds and five less thirds. When the last event was reached, the 220 yard dash, we trailed by 8 points which necessitated our capturing all three places to win. Since there were only four lanes on the track, how- ever, Robertson's first and Nelles' second could only tie the score, while Pawling, sure of a third, won by that slight margin. The loss of Barnes, who established records in the hundred and two- twenty dashes, was most keenly felt at the Peekskill Interscholastics. Though the team as individuals did well, we were unable to score save in the half mile, where Captain Day sprinted ahead of the field at the start and maintained his lead until the last half-lap, when he was passed by an opponent and given second place with three points. In the broad jump, Captain Day, with his best leap of the year, twenty-one feet, two and one- half inches, gained first place and five more points for Hackley. How- ever, in the high jump he failed to make the necessary five feet ten inches to stay in the competition, though he did better than that before the sea- son was over. Hence our score remained at eight points till the end of the meet. In the last contest of the season, against St. Paul's, we, again beat our old foes by the close score of 56 to48. Hyslip, St. Paul's sprinter, after being spiked at the end of the century dash, which he won with his foot bandaged, attempted the 220 and won that, defeating our best men. A. T. Day took his usual fifteen points, as the Dial reporter said, in the high and broad jumps and half mile, a feat which he has repeated con- sistently since the beginning of the season. Hackley took all three places in the hammer throw as well as in the pole vault. Losing only three meets out of nine and one of those an Interscholas- tic may be considered as doing pretty well. The team as a whole was bet- ter than last year's. Though Robertson in a degree, took Barnes' place, he did not account for nearly as many points. The loss had to be and was made up by others elsewhere, showing that we had a better balanced team. Dunn, Cregier and Van Saun were all able to throw the hammer over one hundred and twenty feet, and with the exception of the last are to be back next year. As mentioned before, we were most noticeably weak in the field events, the high jump, discus and shot put. Though Day was a sure winner in the high jump we had no good second and third men, Wink, Will and Hall only doing five feet, three and four inches at their best. In the discus, Will was our only point gainer, but J ewett and Page one hundred twenty-two THE 1929 ANNUAL Dunn will no doubt show up well in this event next year. Though Vose and Dunn did thirty-six feet fairly consistently in the shot put, they were unable to take more than one first, a second or so and an occasional third. It is hoped that by next year they will both be doing forty feet. While the loss of W. Ebling was felt somewhat in the pole vault, L. Ebling, Ludlow and Wink did very well. Ludlow very closely approached the school mark of ten feet, and L. Ebling and Wink were nearly always sure of a place. With all but the last mentioned leaving, it is hoped that some of the lower classmen will take an interest in the pole vault and develop into some good contenders. The sprints were our best bet for points. Rob- ertson, a new man this year, who promises to become a second Barnes by the time he is a senior, totaled at the end of the season, next to A. T. Day, the most number of points. Nelles developed uncanny speed and was a sure winner in the two-twenty and good usually for places in the hundred yard and the quarter-mile. There were quite a number of as- pirants for the half-mile this year. Among these, A. T. Day was of course the most outstanding but not so much so as to obliterate Hutchinson, Hayes and Whitney. In the mile, Howard showed flashes of his fourth class form, at one time running this event in less than five minutes. Jewett and Simpson will probably tight it out for first place next year in this contest. We are all sorry to see Howard go, as we inevitably con- nect him with a successful track team and his own special event, the mile, we hope moreover, he will shake off his unfortunate slump of the past two years and make a name for himself in intercollegiate circles. One of the highest scorers again this year was Proctor, who ran all the sprints and will be sorely missed next year. Promising runners for the future are Deshler and W. Gable. From the form the latter has exhibited this year he will probably be our best broad-jumper next spring. The team will sustain its greatest loss through the departure of Cap- tain A. T. Day for college. He, for the last three years, has been the mainstay of the team and a source of pride and confidence to Coach Pop Lindsay, because he is pretty sure, with A. T. along, of at least fifteen points. A. T. has captained the team through a successful season, the success being largely a result of his own eiorts, and we hope he will ex- perience similar results under the supervision of Jack Moakley at Cornell. Pop is going to miss him, but there hasn't been a year when he hasn't missed somebody and wondered how he would make up for that loss, and yet still turn out a strong team.

FRENCH P. COMPTON MILLER, JR. mENNIS was an entirely new sport at Hackley this year, and one of the direct outgrowths of the new Riverdale-Storm King-Hackley Tri- angular Competition. Of course there had been for years the usual Fall and Spring Tennis Tournaments but never any interscholastic competi- tion before. As might be expected, our only matches were with the other two schools in the league. The first match, on Monday, May 17, at the Riverdale courts, netted Riverdale 8 points and Hackley 4. In the singles, first team, C. French beat Platt 6-0, 6-23 Nye of Riverdale beat Hayes 6-3, 6-23 and Peters, Riverdale, beat F. Gabel 6-2, 7-9, 5-7, thus giving Riverdale the lead. But in the second team singles although Foster de- feated A. Vose 7-5, 6-2, Roebrtson beat Metz, Riverdale, and Pearson beat Biehn of Riverdale 6-4, 6-4, and 2-6, 6-1, 7-5 respectively. In the first team doubles Nye and Peters of Riverdale defeated Captain French and F. Gabel 6-4, 6-3, but then Hayes and Rogge defeated Platt and Fox of Riverdale 7-5, 6-2. In the second team doubles A. Vose and Robertson defeated Metz and Biehn of Riverdale 6-4, 10-8 and Graves and Pearson were beaten by Foster and Dailzey of Riverdale 6-2, 6-4. In both the first team matches with Storm King at Cornwall-on-the- Hudson and the first team matches at Hackley the Grey and Black teams won all sets, double and single. This overwhelming victory over Storm King gave Hackley 12 more points. This innovation of tennis as an in- terscholastic competitive sport has been received so favorably by the en- tire school that there is no doubt that it has become a permanent part in the spring and fall athletic schedules at Hackley for the future. The tennis teams are as follows: FIRST TEAM Charles S. French, '30 George R. Hayes, '29 , Frederick D. Gabel, '31 Neil Rogge, '32 SECOND TEAM William A. Graves, '32 Andrew C. Robertson, '32 John S. Pearson, '31 Alden H.

During the football season, although the score was decidedly in favor of the Goodhues, all the games were Well played and afforded more than one thrill for the adherents of both the clubs. The first game ended 13 for the Goodhues and 7 for the Raymondsg the second game Was 7-14 in favor of the Raymondsg the third 7-0 in favor of the Goodhuesg the fourth 20-0 in favor of the Goodhuesg the fifth tie 7-75 the sixth tie 6-65 and the seventh tie 0-0. The Junior and Senior Tennis Tournaments both Went to the Ray- monds, Fred Gabel capturing the Senior championship and Dave Currier the Junior. During the soccer season the clubs played touch football on the main field, but as the teams were picked up on the afternoon of the games, no record was kept. On the afternoon of December 8th the Raymonds de- feated the Goodhues in touch football on a snow covered field by the score of 26-6. The Club basketball season started out with the Raymonds winning the first game 26-9 on the 18th of January. The next tvvo games also Went to the same club, the second with the score of 17-11, and the third at 8-7. The Goodhues Won the last game on February 18th by the score of 14-13. The Second Club Team series started out with a victory for the Good- hues of 15-13. The next three games went to the Raymonds with the respective scores of 15-11, 20-12, and 18-14. The Goodhues won the con- cluding tvvo games by 17-7, and 13-3, respectively. The Goodhues were victorious in both the Third Club team games, the first by the score of 15-2, and the second by 16-14. The shield was Won by the Goodhues this year and will remain their property until next June. Due to the newly organized Riverdale-Storm King-Hackley Triangular agreement, and also because of the increased pressure of student activities and heavy athletic schedules, club activities were abandoned during the Spring Term.

THE 1929 ANNUAL Page one hundred forty-four THE 1929 ANNUAL Ghz 39151195 QT FOUR-THIRTY on the afternoon of Saturday, April 20, the Hack- ley Dramatic Club, founded in 1901, presented its annual program of plays, consisting this year of The Travellers, by Booth Tarkington, and The Crowsnest, by William Manley. The Travellers, a regulation comedy, dealt in humorous fashion with the futile attempt of a Well-to-do American family from Illinois to adapt themselves on a cold January night to the discomforts and incon- veniences of a wretched inn in the little Sicilian mountain town of Cas- trogirone. The role of Mr. Roberts, the supremely self-satisfied Am- erican tourist who cannot understand why an American citizen isn't perfectly safe anywhere in the world, or need put up with any incon- veniences if he has plenty of money, was successfully and interestingly portrayed by E. Arnold Webb, '30, the well-remembered Helen of Troy in Helena's Husband, presented by the Dramatic Club two years ago. Robert C. Alexander, '31, who last year played the role of Mary in The Man in the Bowler Hat, gave a very amusing interpretation of the timid, unresourceful Mrs. Roberts. Edwin E. Redfern, '31, the unforgettable Josephine Paris of The Valiant, again impressed everyone by his ani- mated, strikingly feminine portrayal of Jessie Roberts, the heroine. He seems able to act in these female parts with unusual ease and grace. Carl L. Billman, '31, and John D. M. Huey, '29, were quite amusing as the hysterical Mrs. Slidell, and her handsome young son, Fred. The chief Sicilian character in the play, LaSera, the suave courier, who scorns his employers behind their backs, yet affects the most abject servility and subtle assurance before them, was played in a lively and convincing man- ner by Earle W. Webb, Jr., '31. Considerable local color was provided by the minor Sicilian characters: Maria, the demure maid, Clinton Swezey, '29, Salvatore, the valet-de-chambre, Douglas W. Gorsline, '31, Luigi, a sort of maitre-d'hotel, Alvord Sheen, '32, and the stupid Chauf- feur, James M. Belden, '30. The Crowsnest was a sea-play, much shorter than The Travel- lers, and containing only three characters. The action takes place from 1 to 6 A. M. in the crowsnest of the old hooker Jessamine beating her way down the South American coast. The story dealt with the disillusion- ment of the Greenhorn Kid, whose dreams of fighting and other romantic adventures at sea are turned into the drab routine of a sailor's life. Fen- ton G. Newbery, '31, perfectly cast as the Kid, gave a striking piece of acting, his voice and manner being excellently suited to the role. His in- terpretation was, in fact, nothing short of brilliant. Edward A. Guthrie, Page one hundred forty-five L THE 1929 ANNUAL '30, gave an excellent, very realistic portrayal of the part of Jo-Jo, the hard-boiled Cockney bos'n g Mr. Peturson, the easy-going Swedish mate, was very well portrayed by Thomas I. Nelles, '29, That the plays were a success, there is no doubt, but in our satis- faction ab their successful production, no one should for one moment for- get the unpayable debt of gratitude due to those who were instrumental in bringing our hopes to realization. To Mr. Howard M. Bell, our patient, talented coach, the Dramatic Club extends its most heartfelt thanks and its sincerest appreciation of his eifortsg also to Mr. George P. Howard, who spent long hours directing and executing the construction of the very effective sets, particularly that of The Crowsnest, which was an artistic triumph g to Mr. Allan T. Cook, for his constructive criticism and approval, to Mrs. Gage and Mrs. Howard, for their gracious assis- tance with the costumes, to the stage manager and his crew, the pro- perty man, the head electrician, and their respective staffs, to the Various committees, Whose aid was indispensable, to all these, the Hackley Dra- matic Club and the entire school render their combined thanks. At a recent meeting of the Club, E. Arnold Webb, '30, and Edward A. Guthrie, '30, were elected president and secretary-treasurer, respec- tively, for the year 1929-30.

Page one hundred seventy THE 1929 ANNUAL During the Winter Term two new student organizations were created. The Meteorological Society was formed by Mr. Brockett for the study of the weather conditions. Each member has a particular job to do each day, either noting the outside temperature at various times during the day, or the direction and velocity of the Wind, posting the Government weather maps sent out from New York by the U. S. Weather Bureau, re- cording the barometric pressure, the sunshine record, the general sum- mary of the dayls weather or the forecast for the next day. A table of all the phases of the Weather for each week, day by day, is posted on the Weather Bulletin Board in the Minot Savage House just outside the Mail Room. The other organization was the Philatelic Society, started by Mr. Howard, for all those interested in stamp collecting. The Society meets informally in Mr. Howard's apartment in Hale Tower three or four timesa month to discuss any new issues of stamps that may have come out or to place orders for stamps with Mr. Howard.

Mr. Warner, of Tarrytown, spoke for quite a while and then showed slides, dealing with spiral nebulae and comets. Robert Duncan, '12, President of the Hackley Alumni Association, received the following radiogram from Joe De Ganahl, '17 : Byrd Antarctic Expedition. April 11, 1929. The greetings from you, Students and Alumni, have brought me very close to things. The memory of the happy years, of the copper beeches now at their best, of the tramps through the woods, and of the friend- ships formed is very dear to me here under the snow. Hackley has meant much to all of us, but it is in surroundings like these that we appreciate Page one hzmdred seventy-one fully all the symbols. Best wishes to all, those who have passed out of the gate, those who are fortunate enough to be there now, and those who are responsible for making it the place that it is. Joe De Ganahl. Saturday afternoon, April 20, the annual plays were presented in the Gymnasium. Those presented this year, under the direction of Mr. Howard M. Bell, with the stage supervision under Mr. George P.

The Senior Class, following the ancient and honorable custom of senior classes at Hackley, started the white fiannel season by appearing at the door of Raymond Tower on the evening of Monday, May 6, clad in white iiannels and blue coats, and marched across the Quad and into the Dining Room in dignified and solemn order. The following night the Junior Class, then the Fourth, the Third, the Second, and at last the First Class went through the same formality, after which it was per- missable for anyone to wear flannels about the Hill-top. Mr. Worcester R. Warner, who recently spoke at the School about astronomy, has offered the use of his splendidly equipped laboratory to any Hackley students who wish to avail themselves. On Sunday evening, the Faculty, a few Fourth Classmen, the Juniors, and the Seniors were entertained in the Library by Harvey Dunn, the well known illustrator.

Page one hundred seventy-three THE 1929 ANNUAL 011192 Triangular Zlgreement OUBTLESS one of the most progressive steps taken by this school in many years was the formation of a union between the Riverdale Country School, of Riverdale-on-the-Hudson, the Storm King School, of Cornwall-on-the-Hudson, and Hackley.

The annual Christmas Pageant, to which the entire school had looked for- ward for more than a month, was presented on December 20th, the last night of the Fall Term. The previous success of this institution, first established by Mr. Vernon B. Kellett three years ago, was repeated this year under the capable direction of Mr. Allan T. Cook, with the assist- ance of Mrs. Gage, Mr. Hague, and Mr. Brockett. Although the loss of Mr. Kellett, who had directed and taken the leading role in the two pre- vious pageants, was severely felt, the festival proved to be as beautiful and as merry as either of its predecessors. Promptly at seven o'clock, the Herald, attired in a gorgeous Henry VIII costume, blew his trumpet, and the Jester cavorted into the draw- ing room, brandishing his bauble in the air, and shouting, Welcome! Welcome! , summoning the assembled guests to dine. Then began the procession down the long hall to the dining room, transformed for the oc- casion into the banquet hall of an English manor of the Tudor period. The Adeste Fideles was sung by the entire company, and the Lord's Prayer repeated. Mr. Gage then read the Bonum est confiteri from the 92nd Psalm, and, following that, the story of the shepherds and the birth of Christ. After a silence of a few moments, the sound of voices drawing near was heard, and, at length, the shepherds, dressed in brown sackcloth and bearing their crooks, entered the room, singing the lovely Away in a Manger. Slowly they moved between the silent people to the creche at the opposite end of the room. As they knelt in adoration before it, their faces illumined by the blazing candles on all sides, and the beautiful song ringing out so clearly, a reverent hush descended upon the room. At the conclusion of the song, Mr. Gage read the story of the Magi. The procession of the Three Kings, preceded by the Star of Bethlehem, entered the room, singing We Three Kings of Orient Are. In the gorgeous traditional robes of ermine and royal purple, they ap- proached the creche to make their offerings of gold and frankincense and myrrh to the infant Savior. Each king sang the solo part of the song as he made his offering, and after he had made his obeisance, the shep- herds, standing round about, joined in the chorus. Slowly the Star pass- ed out of the room, followed by the Three Kings, and the silent, reverent shepherds. The lights flashed on, and the first part of the Pageant was over. The guests and the rest of the school now sat down to a Christmas dinner. The Jester bounced into the room, and to the general amusement, Page one hundred seventy-six THE 1929 ANNUAL turned somersaults and indulged in all manner of antics, welcoming every- one to the feast. After Mr. Hague had played the opening measures of a stately old Latin hymn of welcome, the Robin Hood men, in Lincoln green and with jaunty crimson feathers in their bonnets, began their march down the corridor and into the dining hall, with the boar's head on a salver festooned with greens. Slowly the procession wound its way among the tables, chanting the Caput Apri Defero, and at last, stopped before the Headmaster's table to lift the silver platter, on which reposed the boar's head, onto the banquet board. Then the Robin Hood men went to their own tables in the grill room. The scene was very festive, with the gay costumes, the holly and greens everywhere evident, and the can- dles burning cheerfully in the windows. Next came the Procession of the Plum Pudding, and the lighting of the Yule Log in the fireplace, after which the entire company gathered at the hearth. Santa Claus dis- tributed ridiculous gifts to certain members of the Faculty and the stu- dent body, to the intense amusement of everyone. The last present in Santa's bag was a silver tray, the gift of the Senior Class to Mrs. Gage. The well loved Christmas carols were sung, and the gathering broke up after an enthusiastic rendition of the School Song. The Christmas Pag- eant was over, the term was practically ended, and vacation began on the morrow. Everyone had a gay and pleasant evening, yet a realization of the religious significance of Christmastide was not lacking, the true spirit of peace and good will reigned for a space throughout the halls of Hackley.

I Page one hundred seventy-nine THE 1929 ANNUAL THE 1929 ANNUAL Eiga Baccalaureate batman E WERE ,unusually fortunate this year in securing Dr. S. Parkes Cadman to deliver the address on June second to the members of the graduating class. The service, as might be expected, was of an unusually interesting and inspiring character, and left a deep impression on both students and the large body of guests who were present on that occasion. As the sermon was noteworthy for its forceful combination of clear thinking and sincere emotion, we take great pleasure in append- ing an authorized version of Dr. Cadman's discourse. c LIFE'S EVALUATIONS Text: Prove all things, hold fast that which is good. I. Thessalonians V:21. No thoughtful person passes through life without acquiring certain habits of mind and points of view with regard to life's ultimate facts. He may arrive at his conclusions consciously or unconsciously. They may ,be due to his temperament, training or environment. In any case, they are his convictions, and if sincerely felt and reasoned well they do him honor. Moreover, these fundamental judgments profoundly affect character. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. They shape his interpreta- tions of men and events. They are the texture of those experiences which make or mar his earthly days. They determine his estimates of the world that now is, and of that which is to come. St. Paul recognized these facts. He knew that thinking things through is a wise, and for some, an inevitable process. Instead of for- bidding fearless investigation of one's beliefs or non-beliefs, he encourag- ed it. The wavering, timid Thessalonians, if such there were, were urged to prove all things, and hold fast that which is good? This exhorta- tion challenges the blind observantist and the bigot whose opinions run ahead of research and inquiry. It repudiates the notion that faith is afraid of knowledge or that knowledge strangles faith. It rings out with the crispness of a military command, brief, clear, direct, unmistakable. How should our young people construe so remarkable a saying? Surely its primal significance is that everyone is personally obligated to examine his or her own life. Indeed, an unexamined life is scarcely worth while. For we really live only in what we really know. The rest of the wonderful universe is closed to us. Think of the difference between Sir Isaac ,Newton's vision of creation and that of a wilful ignoramus. Page one hundred eighty THE 1929 ANNUAL Q The founder of modern science was deeply aware of its splendid possibilities and led the march of its mighty achievements. Whereas the individual unaware of the realm in which Newton revelled was by so much confined, helpless and devitalized. Again, the text signifies the duty of every candidate for good life to discriminate between its true and false guides. Nowhere do these solicit as they do in the spiritual order. It has always been difficult to find the correct standard, the conclusive test, in respect to genuine or spurious ex- pressions of religion and morals. In the twelfth chapter of his first letter to the Corinthians St. Paul discusses this matter, and the fourth chapter of St. John's first epistle urges believing men and women to try all spirits, whether they are of God or not, since many false prophets were abroad., Two functions apply in life's examination. The first is interpreta- tion, the second is description. The first is the work of faith and charac- ter. The second is the work of observation and experiment. The first is the core of your religion. The second is the result of what is presented to your senses. By the gift of interpretation you arrive at your creed. By that of description you state what you have observed in Nature. Saints are made possible by the first, and scholars by the second. Those who unite the two functions are the princes and leaders of the race. Obviously life's interpretation is more exacting than its description. The world around us is in truth massive and mighty. But the world within every human being contains unplumbed depths and mysterious phases with which the formulations of knowledge cannot cope. These are only concerned to provide correct statements of what is observed in external creation. The claim that everything in life can be explained by man's organ- ized knowledge has not been verified. Yet there need be no hostility be- tween inter rotation and observation. In themselves they are not an- tagonistic. The rivalry existing between the scientist and the theologian is traceable to confusion caused by trespass on each other's domains. Their unwarranted use of each other's tools has provoked the fruitless confiict between learning and religion. The Church is far from guiltless in this regrettable strife. It is therefore her mission as the mother of Christian civilization, to make a lasting peace with its scholastic pursuits, to accept with gladness the assured results of scientific investigation as a disclosure in part of the Divine Order in life. When this is done, however, it still remains true that if we are to prove all things and hold fast that which is good, we shall have to Page one hundred eighty-one THE 1929 ANNUAL travel far beyond the scope of description. After we have seen what Browning calls, the beauty, wonder and power of the world, registered the shapes of things, their colors, lights and shades, changes, surprises, and the like-the question invariably arises: What is the purpose of it all ? And the further questions Whence came I? , What am I? , Whither go I? One thinker answers for his school that we are no more than an in- significant by-product of a vast evolution itself doomed to extinction and nothingness. Anothermore modestly insists that there is no known inter- pretation of men or the universe. The Christian and the Jew emphasize the felt experience testifying of God and His purposed order in the cosmos. The Bible teaches that man is the key to the riddle's solution. Per- sonality in him reached its climateric in Jesus, who revealed the creating, reigning Deity, and Controlling Mind, as the Father whose tender mercies are over all His works. As a follower of Christ, I believe that he is the wise and devout man who apprehends the spiritual significance of all that exists. Every ques- tion is for him a moral question. The solution of every problem depends upon the frank admission of its spiritual character. Private life, daily routine, education, business or whatever else is Within your radius are inseparably related in the moral realm. Endeavors to sever what God has joined are stamped with failure and ignominy. That which is not consecrate is unsafe. Health-giving knowledge and rational faith harmonious. And your outlook on life de- mands their unity in action. Know all worth knowing. Greatly believe in its ethical and religious qualities. For as knowledge grows and spiritual insight widens, new interpre- tations will appear. Our ancestors believed the planet was flat. We know it is a spheroid iioating in space. They supposed the strata of the globe were laid from its creation. We know the coal measures are later deposits. In numerous departments of knowledge similar transforma- tions have occurred and still occur. A twentieth century believer can- not be content with the descriptions of the iirst or even the nineteenth centuries. We are responsible to God and our generation to discern what is true, lovely, of good report. The accounts of creation which we support must be in keeping with the facts of the situation. It will not do to limit the blessings of faith to those who cling to venerable traditions of man and the universe which have lost their force and meaning. Every age explains its experiences as it best can. But one change- Page one hundred eighty-two THE 1929 ANNUAL less verity is ours amid these constant changes. God is forever the same. His goodness does not fail. Trust in Him has been the strength of men and nationsg the secret of their endurance, the source of their betterment. 'Throughout the ages His increasing purpose runs, and the thoughts of men about Him have widened with the process of the suns. More, when wefairly construe the prophets who preceded Jesus and the apostles who followed Him, their reading of life's essentials and aims is infinitely helpful. Let us be true to knowledge and abundant in faith. For the times need the man and woman who adequately receive and trans- mit both these precious gifts divine. I hear accusations that the incoming generation has played traitor to God and the moral order. Quite otherwise, it is asking for light upon them. If the Church cannot give it, we may justly infer that she walks in darkness. . When our youth, versed in the superior descriptions of modern scholarship asks: What of the unseen realm? they exercise a right which is also a duty. And we shall be miserably derelict if we say there is no satisfactory reply. As if St. Paul had forseen this emergency, he declares that the treasures of wisdom, which are the finest interpretations of lifeg and the treasures of knowledge, which are the stored up materials on which wisdom feed, are hidden in Christ. The world which produced Him can- not be under sentence of death. The Eternities meet in His historic Per- son. In Him God reaches down to man and man reaches up to God. So be of good courage. Accept this text. It maps out the function of every believing soul. It lays on us the grateful burden of convincing our age that knowledge shall grow from more to more, and more of reverence in us dwell, until each with each according well, shall make one music as before. You move onward when you move Godward. And this is the perennial hope and vigor of youth. Page mm hvmdred eiglzty-three E THE 1929 ANNUAL Qllummencement ATURDAY, JuJne 8th, 1929, dawned at last, but what a dawning! Damp, misty, rainy and chilly, a rather inauspicious beginning for our last day as Hackley undergraduates! Later on in the morning the sky cleared, and the world of nature seemed to brighten up a little, the hour of eleven-thirty approached, and guests began to assemble in the Goodhue Memorial Chapel, a pleasant hum of expectancy pervaded the stately old building, scene of so much that had been important and beautiful in our lives at Hackley. Tall, slender gladioli graced the grand piano with their vivid saffron beauty, and there were lace-like ferns in the window-boxes, and branches of beautiful laurel banked at the rear of the speakers' dais, and along the sides of the room. Promptly at eleven-thirty the west doors were flung open, and Dr. Eliot, Dr. Sills, and Mr. Gage entered, proceeding to the speakers' plat- form, the doors were closed, and, then, softly at first, Mr. Hague began to play Lord Elgar's famous processional march, Pomp and Circum- stancef' The doors opened, and, as the assemblage stood, the Seniors entered by twos, keeping step to the slow, measured notes of the stately march, which rose to a crescendo as the procession reached the center aisle, and advanced to the front row. When the Seniors had reached their positions, Dr. Eliot, the President of the Board of Trustees, bidding all be seated, gave a brief address of welcome, which was followed by William DeWitt Hyde's famous hymn, Creation's Lord, We Give Thee Thanks. Dr. Eliot led the responsive reading, Wisdom is more precious than rubies, etc. after which the School Hymn, composed in 1900 by the Rev. Theodore C. Williams, the first Headmaster, was sung. Dr. Eliot then introduced the Commencement speaker, Dr. Kennth C. M. Sills, the president of Bowdoin College, who delivered a very interesting and in- spiring address on the beneficial influence of a good preparatory school in shaping a boy's character so as to be able to resist the temptations of college life, and derive the utmost from the splendid opportunities afford, ed to the youth of today by American colleges, whether large or small. At the conclusion of the address, the Seniors arose and Mr. Gage began the presentation of diplomas, after which the prizes were awarded. The two trophy cups, given by the Class of 1921, for the highest attain- ment in Scholarship, and for the greatest service in Athletics, will be inscribed with the names of William Hartwell Ludlow, and Albert Tim- othy Day. On the Richard P. Parker Memorial Cup, presented by his classmates for distinction in studies and student activities, will be in- scribed the name of Charles Baldwin Vose. Anthony Perry Morse won Page one hundred eighty-four THE 1929 ANNUAL the prize donated annually by Mrs. Frederick Sherman, to that member of the graduating class Who has shown the most conspicuous improve- ment in English literature. The prize oiered by Mrs. Paul E. DeFere, Sr., to the Hackley School student deemed most proficient in the French language, was awarded to Carl Levermore Billman, '31, after having been refused by Clinton Alan Swezey, a relative of the donor. Edmund Webster Kittredge received the prize given every year by Mr. Paul Bell- inger, in memory of Stanley Bagg Pennock, 1911, to that member of the graduating class most prolicient in Science. In conclusion, Katherine Lee Bates' Well-known hymn, America, the Beautiful was sung. Dr. Eliot pronounced the benediction on the Class and on everyone present, and the simple, dignified ceremony was over. Page one hundred eighty-five E THE 1929 ANNUAL The Eames The gllllasquerahe ATURDAY evening, November 3rd, the usually bare and austere gymnasium was besieged by bands of youthful revellers who made merry beneath twinkling blue and green lights, within banner-decked walls, amid showers of confetti, the wailing of the saxophone and black and orange paper streamers. Bold pirate lassies, demure belles of Crino- line days, gay toreadores and pretty senoritas, boys in Palm Beach togs, policemen, aviators and foreign ambassadors danced to the swaying rhythm of the orchestra. The prize for the most artistic costume for the girls was given to Miss Margaret Brooks, of Princeton, New Jersey, who was dressed as a Russian bride in a gown of pink silk, brocaded with silver and pearl. Miss Grace Barton, of Tenafly, New Jersey, received the prize for the most original costume. Miss Barton masqueraded as an aviatrix, in a very clever and striking costume of tan satin. The prize for the most artistic boy's costume went to Frank Bammerman, ,I-34, who was dressed in the picturesque black and red garb of a Spanish gypsy. The most or- iginal costume of the boys was that of Dexter Hewett, '32, who very cleverly disguised himself as a little girl. ' illibe iliilihdldlinter Eanee The second dance of the year was held in the Goodhue Memorial Building, on Saturday evening, February 16th. The large arched hall, hung with school and college banners., echoed to the syncopated notes of six of Nick Koenig's best. The long corridor, lined with pillowed seats, was the popular promenade between dances, while most of the sitting out was done in the Library. That this dance was a success was manifested by all those present, and by the hearty and sustained applause for encores after the final hour had come. Ulibe 1BIap Eanee On Saturday, April 20, the annual Play Dance, the most colorful and best of all Hackley dances was held in the Gymnasium. For weeks the whole School had looked forward with expectancy to this gala event, the formal opening of the Spring social season on the hill-top, and for the suc- cess of which numerous committees had been sparing no effort. The pool, gracefully drooping ferns hung over it and palms along the sides, lined with couches and reflecting a hundred azure lights, the long promenade, Page one hundred eighty-six THE 1929 ANNUAL with its deep, soft divans and subdued amber lighting, the banner-decked walls of the gym itself, spotlights playing from the balcony, and Nick Koenig's Castle Club Orchestra, those are just a few of the things that one recalls at the words Play Dance, things that go to make this dance the success it always has been. A great deal of credit is due the decorat- ing committee for their untiring efforts in making the gymnasium so at- tractive, to the Dance Committee for their share in making possible the dance, to Fred for his willing co-operation, and to Mrs. Gage, whose aid was indispensable in concluding details and arrangements. The Qllummencement Bamzz On Friday evening, June 7, the last school dance of the year was held in Goodhue. Promptly at eight o'clock the Glee Club rendered several selections from the Goodhue steps, after which the Seniors gathered to sing the School Song for the last time. The Quad was lit by the glow of dozens of Japanese lanterns strung along the roads and paths, where couples strolled leisurely about between dances, upon the front of Good- hue, over the massive columns, were emblazoned the figures 1929 in great white letters. The hall was decorated with lacy green ferns, and long, wavy branches of beech, with laurel here and there. And a seven-piece Lown orchestra was turning out a mean syncopation from the north end of the room. Just one of the many little things that went to make this dance so enjoyable to everyone was that half-hour when Bert Lown him- self came out and sang a few numbers. Gtbe Eluniut-Senior Eames That the Senior Tea Dance at Mrs. Gage's on Friday afternoon, the Junior-Senior Tea Dance at the Sleepy Hollow Club the next afternoon and the J unior-Senior Dinner Dance at school that night were a great suc- cess there is no doubt. We shall ever remember them as our last Hackley dances,-the sweeping lawns and trellised gardens of Sleepy Hollow, the gorgeously decorated table in the Grill Room, the lantern lighted Quad, the softly glowing floor lamps in the smoking room, and an eight-piece Lown orchestra in the Goodhue. Enough cannot be said in praise of Mr. and Mrs. Gage, the Dance Committee and Fred for all they did to make this last glorious week-end possible. QLD: Bama Cinmmittez ' Thomas I.

May 18, 1950. Mr. Anthony P. Morse, Skyhigh Apartments, 897 Park Ave., New York City. Dear Moose, I've just returned from Europe, where my fair friends were prosper- ing when I left them. One of them, Louise, sends you her love. You re- member, she was the blonde from Toulouse. I went out to school to see King and Queen the other day, and they wanted to know all about the members of the class and how they were getting along. I find I will have little time to check up on everybody and make a report to King as I am leaving for the West in the morning to stop some disastrous rustling that has been going on out on one of my ranches. It seems that they come down from Canada and take several hundred head of cattle away in one of those large freight planes almost every day. But in spite of that I seem to be cleaning up quite a pile. Now I thought that perhaps you could get in touch with all the boys through your Televisaphone system. If you can spare the time, I would greatly appreciate it if you would do this and send me a report on the whole class, which I would turn over to King. You can reach me at Bar M Ranch, Cody, Wyoming. Thanks, Moose, old boy, for I know you'll do it. Remember me to Mrs. Morse and the kiddies. Your old classmate, A. T. Day. ATDXGB Page one hundred ninety THE 1929 ANNUAL ri Skyhigh Apartments 897 Park Avenue, New York, N. Y. May 25, 1950. Albert T. Day, Esq., Bar M Ranch, Cody, Wyoming. Dear A. T., I was glad of the opportunity your kind letter offered me. I have often wondered how our old classmates were getting along and your re- quest, instead of being a burdensome task, proved a pleasure, spurring me on to the accomplishment of that which I have long wished to attempt but would probably have never gotten around to. By the full use of the Televisaphone System, which as you probably know, now includes, besides a network covering almost the entire North American continent, connec- tions with England, France and Germay, and due to the persistent ef- forts of Whitney and Owens, lines to the three Scandinavian countries, I was able to obtain the information desired. I could not only talk with the boys but could see them as well, and obtain a fair impression of the room in which they were. I will describe to you just what I heard and saw, trusting that it will be what you desired. I called up Van Saun's house, which is on top of the new 225 story Consolidated Kiddie Kars Building, on 74th Street. Luckily I found Van, George Hayes and Kittredge there as usual, playing poker. Pat, who still had that same old laugh of his, was losing heavily, which was only natural since Van Saun and Kitty had the cards marked. Van said he wasn't doing much in particular, but that he made rather frequent trips to Monte Carlo, and between his working days CTuesday and Fridaysj often gave talks to young peoples' societies and Girl's Clubs. Kitty, however, was becoming extremely wealthy by distilling Listerine and making synthetic gin. He, by the way, has gotten very fat, and had a special car built, bodied by Mack. George is head of an insurance company that is fast going into the hands of the receivers. They insure piers against injury from incoming barges. Red says its all due to that new school for harbor pilots, and that the pilots are so good no one bothers about insurance. I managed to get hold of Howard just after he had completed 789 hours 26 minutes of solo endurance flying. He looked a little haggard Page one hundred ninety-one .ll.EmEmH THE 1929 ANNUAL under the eyes and his face resembled a stubble field, and his nineteen year old daughter wouldn't kiss him until he had shaved. Royalties from airplane patents net him a handsome income. A call to Jack Fowler's new place at Nyack revealed that he and Comp Miller had gotten into an argument in regard to the miles per gal- lon of a thirty ton tractor through the African jungles. They both went to Africa to prove the other wrong. It took a lot more gasoline than Comp thought it would, so Jack was nearer. Comp declares the gas was half water anyway. He says he's going to try it again with good gas some day. They both collaborate in writing movie scenarios which af- fords them plenty of cash. John Huey was not at home when I called, in fact he had just started out on a motoring trip to Alaska. But his charming secretary gave me all the information I wanted. It seems he has become a multi-millionaire by revolutionizing the Denney Tag Company. His clever mind conceived the idea of making tags with specially designed cords attached. He sells these in great numbers to the maternity wards of hospitals all over the world, which employ them in tagging babies when they are born. You've probably seen their advertisements, A Denney Tagged Baby Is Bound To Succeed. Swezey, as his latest mother-in-law told me, has been quite a family man. To be exact, he has had three wives and seven children, six girls and one boy. When he's not in his cups or in bed, he composes the words and music for red hot jazz, which his present wife sings on the Keith- Albee circuit. Our Clint has succeeded extraordinarily, both materially and spiritually, which, taking all in all, is quite a feat for any artist. It took me only a few minutes to get in touch with Lew Ebling at his studio on the 127th floor of the Associated Arts Building at Province- town. I could see him behind his collection of fifty odd pipes of assorted shapes and sizes, leafing over the pages of Photoplay with one hand and Screenland with the other. He said that he was terribly busy just then as he had eight magazine articles to illustrate before the next morning. Just as I was signing off to let him get back to work, he showed me the picture of his latest favorite, Phyllis Pickbanks, reviving that ancient dance, the Black Bottom. When I called up Chuck Dresser, the great bank president, I discover- ed Tom Nelles with him. They were chatting comfortably over their cigars and cocktails. Nelles, it seems, is vice-president of another bank on Wall Street, and is waiting contentedly for the president to die. They both seemed in good spirits Cthey know the best placesy and were as witty as ever. Page one hundred ninety-two THE 1929 ANNUAL Mun Will wouldn't answer the televisaphone for the longest time. Just as his stenographer answered for him, I saw him rush madly out of the door. He told me later that he had seen a make of car that he did not know pass under his window. This so infuriated him that he ran downstairs, hailed a taxi and gave chase to satisfy his curiosity. He is doing well in the paint busfness, one of his latest products being a perman- ent sun-tan paint, harmless, odorless and removable only by the use of a special cream he has put out. It was only with the greatest difficulty that I managed to see Lawyer Ludlow. He was up at Sing Sing Prison talking with Mitchell, who after having ten of his night clubs padlocked in one month, was finally caught himself. Hartwell was taking most of Mike's cash to defray the expenses of liberating him. Ludlow appeared to be enjoying himself immensely, but Mitchell seemed pained, surprised, unshaven and disgusted. He is confident that Ludlow will get him out, as he has six times before, but he wonders why he is so everlastingly slow about it. It took me all of several minutes to get a connection with our worthy classmate, Sir John Potter, 6 Charing Road, Kent, Shottsby-on-the-Cam, Severn, Yorkshire. That is his country seatg in the winter he lives at 63 Hot Cross Bun Street, London, S. W. 1,3. Behind him I could see his bejewelled sword which had been given him by good Queen Lena for the grace with which he wore his gleaming monocle. He told me he divides his time between travelling, court functions and the recklessness of driv- ing his rocket car at 215 miles an hour. I had a bit of luck when I got in touch with Baldy Vose. My in- strument showed me a small, comfortable looking room, filled with smoke, and grouped about a table in three leather chairs, were Halliday Owens, Biden Whitney and Baldy. It seems that Biden is now a director in the Swedish Wine Import, where he tastes the wines all day long. He is also quite a prominent Iigure in the Prohibition system there, which he is try- ing to introduce in America. He had just come to the States on a visit, he said, to rest up after the strenuous life at Stockholm. I found that Halliday had just returned from Bolivia, where he holds a major's com- mission in the Royal Dragoons teaching the natives how to pass Two Year Spanish in one year. The Major says he can't see how six year old Spanish children can speak better Espanol than he can after he has been studying it all these years. He thinks he'll join Biden in tasting wineg he's sure he can speak better Spanish than the Swedes. Baldy had just come back from Paris where he had been picking out chorus girls for his new musical comedy, Seven Days Without Food Makes One Weak. The show is due to cause a riot on Broadway since Bevus, in his spare time twhen he isn't getting a corner on safety pins at the Stock EX- changej has written the words and music himself. Page one hundred ninety-three TI-IE 1929 ANNUAL This rather lengthy report of my findings ought to give yew a pretty good idea of What our old classmates are doing. As for myself, I was glad to see them and hear their Voices again. As soon as you have a televisaphone installed at your ranch, I'm going to get in touch with you, too. Hoping you will be able to find the desired material in this hopeless jumble of my impressions, here's to old '29, Anthony P. Morse.
