Football Manager QHJQ Dial: Tuckshop Committeeg Senior Gift Committee. john entered Hackley during the fall of 1950 as a dayboy, but he decided to spend his Senior year as a studious boatder. He was liked by all and was willing to lend his assistance wherever needed. He wholeheartedly supported all extracurricular activities on the Hilltop. There were very few occasions upon which john did not honor us with eloquent oratory. While not a born athlete, he aided Hackley':: athletics in his own way. His work as a manager for different teams contributed to the success of our athletic seasons. Throughout his stay at Hackley, john did much to bolster the school spirit. FRANK BOGARDUS Football QHJQ Basketball CHJQ Track QHJQ Glee Clubg Choir. Frank came to Hackley this year from Pleasantville High School. lmmediately his ability as an outstanding quarterback on the football team was shown. His tranquillity on the playing field always kept the team together and enabled them to win many games. Perhaps more important than his athletic ability was his ability to hold sincere friendships. Frank quickly made many new friends at Hackley and he became one of the most popular boys in the Senior Class. Because of his modesty and sincerity. we are sure that Frank will always have many friends wherever he goes. One of the most notable characteristics of Frank was his con- servative way of dressing. Vlho will forget the inevitable bow tie with the white pants and blue jacket. or who will forget the dark purple shirt with white tie. all combined with Western boots? After Frank leaves Hackley we know he will be a success. 15
