LINDSAY DEDICATION T is rare that any school has as a member of the faculty a man who measures up to the type of person that Pop Lindsay has shown himself to be in his thirty years at Hackley. It is indeed fortunate that nearly every boy who has entered Hackley has been required to attend one of Pops classes, and successes of Hackley alumni in college testify to this fact. Yet Pop has never allowed himself to become a teacher whose only job is to turn out students on a mass production line basis. He has retained that all-important enthusiasm which makes students wish to learn. A lesser man would never have been able to exhibit this quality. With a school spirit equalled by few and surpassed by none, Pop entered into every aspect of school life with the same zeal which he showed in the class room. Anyone who has ever seen him on the track field doing push-ups or pacing the sprinters, will verify this statement. Pop has become an institution at Hackleyg but the word institution is indeed a very poor word to describe him, for it tells nothing of his warm, personable character that has enriched every boy who has come in contact with it. 4 FACULTY TO THE MEMBERS Oli THE CLASS OF 1955 HIS message is written directly to you who are now seniors, but who soon will graduate. Others may read these words, but they are in- tended for your eyes above all others. You are leaving this school, where a consid- erable part of your life has been spent. You have been the mightiest of the mighty, in this, your last year at Hackley. Your leadership has guided and strenthened the school in student government, in athletics, on the corridors, in clubs and activities -and last but not least, you have set us a fine example in your studies. I believe that what you just more than classroom this learning has equipped challenges awaiting you. If ful, we have given you an portance of a life of service, tempered by judgment and have learned here is knowledge, and that you to deal with the we have been success- awareness of the im- tired by perseverance, a sense of fair play, balanced by a sense of proportion, lightened by a sense of humor, and based on a solid foundation of responsibility. This is your school, your Alma Mater Qufoster mother to your scientistsj, and we have tried to fulfill that role. Now we ask you to make us proud of you, as we shall always try to merit your aHection and support. The tide of time and life is carrying you away from us. Swim with it gladly and unafraid. This is a wonderful age in which to be strong and young. Good luck to you, and remember-a warm welcome always awaits you here. FRANK R. MILLER H ead Ill an ler FRANK R.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY ITH a basis of old and widely experienced Lower Schoolers. the tlass tore into its freshman year. Although containing the biggest and best hell-raisers ol sthool history, the class immediately showed an uncommon aptitude lor something- of course no one could guess what. Backed by the unusual talents of li, jenkins, the class started the Inl-:waster, a newspaper which never quite reached the presses, because suddenly several illustrious members of the class departed to join the Foreign Legion, Dr. jenkins among them. By the end ot' the year, though passing lrom the largest to the smallest class in the school for various reasons, the renmining veterans pushed vigorously into the sophomore year. Bruce WilfCffklll proved that one did not have to be a Senior to swim like a fish, while M. Chase Wfaring refuted the theory that one must be coordinated to play toot- ball. Bucky Beers added his belching bass voice to the Octet. The year rolled along li fairly well until suddenly, a very long and disastrous bus ride so ruined several boys' health that they had to become boarders and labor on Saturday in the coal mines deep beneath the Hackley laundry in order to recover. With an evergrowing group of the Old Guard Conservatives from the previous years, the junior class was entered. Bruce Waterfall found himself reinforced in his fight to uphold Bronxville by Phil Lord and Bruce Oatman, members of the same repute filly, At this time the Gugini and Levo were joined by little Bear Prudhomme, who could often be seen opening odd-colored and odd-smelling letters from Connecticut. Terry Wilson found that running for touchdowns and flashing across the quarter-mile finish line was not the only thing in life-suddenly there was another sex-almost! That suave and polished Clive Chajet was joined by Drew Goldberg, a distinguished man, suave and polished in his own whimsical way. Several leaders by this time had emerged and risen to prominence, notably Andy jackson Bakhash, that Persian dictator, and Jim Ridgeway, champion of the underdog. As the year drew to a close, strangely without a mishap, Skip Silloway could almost be seen through a cloud of dust as he peeled out of the parking lot with Barry Stewart close behind CPD in his Jaguar. At last that glorious year had been reached-they were seniors, big and distinguished fwith that universal complexj. Deri Meier continued with no work at all and got amazing marks, while close behind him followed that unobtrusive Little Bob Gulick. Jake Gugino returned from Fredonia without his nose, leaving Old Groundhog Dickie Katz without company-but not for long-because on jake's heels came Andy Cahn and Bruce Hutchinson. Mark Finklestein was joined in his choruses of But Sir! by P. Imperato, who was persecuted just because he was not an earthling, and Alvin Marx, who never explained how the side of his car got smashed. Ernie Alvarez, taking has talents for Public Speaking, announced succinctly this his announcements con- cerning his Varsity H Club would be short. In the meantime the cruel oppressions of Bakhash and Aghassipour were felt on the Senior Corridor. How they escaped being bombed by some radical seniors is still an enigma. If any question was entertained as to the presence of Tex Frank or Frank Borrelli, one had only to look for the scars of the last Indian raid of Big Chief Crazy Otter Becker or view the tire track of an M.G. Phil Couse, that Dirty Britisher, contended that America was still part of the British Empire, and Sam Fuller argued that California was too warm and cultured to be included in the United States. Ably backing Sam was Henry Rhyne, who fought for the Deathless South. Amid the reverberations of Mr. Lindsay's quiet tones, joe Jacobs and Chuck Sanders fled room D in terror. Cap Beatie could often be seen leading his flock of underclad runners over the hills, but was most noted for throwing brick- bats at idealists. Bruce Senor was ready, willing, and able to stand by and watch anybody work-even Phil Schrefer in his many battles in the grappling ring. janko Rasic's ghost will always eat bananas at the bus-stop. Even with Al Aboumrad, the great Mexican graft and corruption artist as treasurer of the school, money was left to his successor. And so departed the most grandiose, verbose, and diversified of senior classes amid clouds of dust and cries of joy or sorrow. 16 cfvh LN-f f .5 Z f ggi' . fm A5 I iq V xv HK i . fic A 3 wx-'l A A nf w l' 1 ' If we A- -v f t 5 r 1 1 1- X L I' inn C ul Al Chase Soccer. 52-54 KH, H, HJQ Wi'estling, 52-55 CH, H, H11 Var- sity 'H' Club, 553 International Club, Debatingg Glee Club. 5-1, 55, Co-Ed, 'Dialf 55, Cum Laudeg President of School, 55. As president of the school and co-editor of The Dial, Al has been active almost every moment. Yet, he somehow found time to hit the books and to win the unprecedented honor of being elected to Cum Laude in his junior year, ln addition, he was awarded the Hackley Bowl as the best all round student. The Hakl1ash spirit is in evidence everywhere, whether on the soccer field or wrestling mat, in these he has maintained a varsity station since his sophomore year, Al's term as president of the school has made student gov- ernment more noticeable than ever before. Altogether. Al has risen to the top both in the athletic and scholastic fields.

Chase's long, lean. lanky figure appeared on the Hilltop in 1950, and except for nightly excursions to Ardsley Park has been here ever since. His athletic career was climaxed at Hackley by his election as captain of the football team, In extra-curricular activities. Chase has also excelled. He is editor-in-chief of the ffffflnlll. vice-president of the school, librarian of the Glee Club and a mainstay in the Octet. In fact, he is so much a mainstay of the Octet that Annabelle l5irby will never sound the same after he leaves. Chase's loud voice was often heard drifting from the smok- ing room asking a word for a crossword puzzle or arguing about the stocks, His many friends wish that tall. lean, lanky fellow the best of luck in his future. 17 ALFRED K.

Al, one of the most notorious representatives from Mexico in Hackley's history, came to the Hilltop in the fall of 1952. As soon as he became acquainted with the life at Hackley, his friendliness and sparkling personality earned him the affection of his classmates. During his three years at Hackley, Al dis- tinguished himself both on the athletic held and in the aca- demic world. He played Varsity soccer for two years, and with wild screams lead the team through two outstanding seasons. Al managed to control the chaotic situa'ion on the junior corridor in spite of his small stature. He plans to study bank- ing in college and return to his native country where he will enter his father's business. Soccer, 53-54 KH, H13 Wrestling, 52-55 QH, H, Hjg Black and Grey Key, 53-55, Sect. 55g Glee Club, 54-ss, Corridor Monitor, 55. Having come to Hackley three years ago to join his uncle. Ron instated himself on the Hilltop with his usual quiet, un- assuming manner. We soon found him to be a student of many varied tastes and interests. His love of quiet and peace is offset by the enjoyment he derives from dancing, singing and laugh- ing. His attachment to engineering is no greater than his appre- ciation for literature and history. His favorite sport, he tells us, is skiing. Whether the job is studies or athletics, whether the under- taking is large or small, Ron can always be seen doing his best. 18 Football, 52-54 QH, H, Hjg Fencing, 53-55 IH, H, HJ.

Ernesto came to Hackley in 1951 from El Salvador. Since his freshman year, Ernie has distinguished himself from the other boys by virtue of his continental air. Ernie was one of the best athletes at Hackley and illustrated this by his exploits on the gridiron. Then, his personality and sense of leadership have enabled him to hold many important positions in various or- ganizations: President of the International Club and Varsity 'H' Club, member of the Board of Magistrates, Corridor Monitor, Board of Deacons and captain of the fencing team. Ernie plans to go to an agricultural college and upon gradua- tion to work at the Alvarez plantation in El Salvador.

Hastings-on-Hudson, N. Y., is known for its football teams and its women, but sedom for its writers, Cap is one of these few exceptions. His greatest pleasure is writing a few thousand words on the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg. Through training and determination, Cap has become a top-notch performer in cross country, wrestling and track. His activities are greatly diversified. He can often be seen playing chess or making an appearante on some television show. ..Emie,, ..CaP,, , s ,Q x wx f, I! x x x X F' .

He also became the school consultant on the subiect of heraldry and is proud to display his own coat of arms on a silver cigarette case. -Iohn has been one of I-Iackley's most distinguished scholars, and he skipped from the lunior year to the senior year. For the last few years, he has been on the fencing and tennis teams. and has efficiently managed many sports. john will also be remembered for his beautiful sister whom no one has ever seen. He was electd as a membr of The Ilarifleuy in his sophomore year. He also gave the school its daily dose of Chopin. the memory of which will be long cherished. Football, Mgr., 5-11 Baseball.

His first year found him play- ing Varsity baseballg as .1 sophomore he was on the undefeated j. V. football team. An unfortunate injury curtailed a promis- ing athletic career. but did not prevent Bill from managing varsity teams. This year he has made a successful baseball comeback. Bill is a four-year member of the Glee Club, three years of which were spent in the Octet. At present he is the distin- guished president of the Hackley singers. Bill is a capable student and genial friend. His numerous nicknames and the fact that he is president of the senior class are tributes to his many line qualities.

Frank joined our class in the fall of 1954 and immediately made himself known at the football camp by the presence of his M. G. He hails from Bronxville. a fact which enabled him to become one of the elite Bronxville Boys. Frank is famous on the senior corridor for the numerous showers which he takes from dawn till dusk. He is also known for his argumentative spirit concerning cars and boats, both of which are among his most active interestsg he holds great pride in his knowledge of them. On week-ends one would be most apt to find Frank tramping through the woods either stalking birds or squirrels or cooking a Sunday lunch. He takes great delight in camping or anything else having to do with the out of doors. Football, 543 Swimming. 55 QHJQ 'Hilltop'g 'Dial,' Business Manager. Ever since Andy came to Hackley in the fall of 1954, he has been a credit both to his class and to the school. as shown hy his aggressiveness in his work and hy the line record which he has made. He quickly became friends with both the students and the faculty. During the fall Andy sparked the football team as an end. ln the winter he helped the rest of the swimming team set their records. He is well known for his Canadian stories and his love for the outdoors. 21 CLIVE CHAJET PHILIP E. c3oUsE 'N 3011050 .W .

In the fall of 1950 a small boy with curly hair and an Eng- lish accent and answering to the name of Clive Chajet entered Hackley. Five years later there was little change to be noticed in Clive. True, the accent is gone, and the hair is not quite so curly, but a casual observer still finds the same qualities in Clive as a senior which enabled him to become one of the best-liked boys in the eighth grade. It has been rumored about school that Clive has a mad crush on Clementine Paddleford, was a close friend of Serge Rubin- stein ffor whom Clive once delivered a touching eulogyj, and is interested in reviving certain old Greek customs at Hackley. Soccer, 54, Track, 55 IHJ, Glee Club, 55, 'Dial,' 55, Com- munity Council Secretary, 55, Corridor Monitor, 55, English Speaking Union Scholarship, 55. Phil came to Hackley as our 1955 English exchange student. He immediately displayed his many scholastic and athletic abilities by being in Group One and by playing soccer for the Varsity team. Extra-curricular activities are something in which Phil excels. Soon after his arrival at Hackley, he was chosen a member of the Community Council, and did an outstanding job for which he was elected Secretary of the school. With his very pronounced English accent and deep voice, Phil soon was ac- cepted as a second bass for the Glee Club. He is liked by all and amuses his fellow boarders with his High and Dry English humor. 22 Soccer, S-lg Swimming, S4-553 'Hilltopf Business Manager, Sig 'Dial,' 553 Black and Grey Key, ibg Social Service Commit- tee, 54. Ever since Mark arrived on the Hilltop four years ago, he has been an outstanding student. Throughout his four years at Hacklcy. he has consistently led his class in the tield of mathe- matics. Although he was not destined to be a nine-letter man. he has played Varsity soccer and has been on the Varsity swim- ming squad. As an active participant in many forms of extra-curricular activities. he has for three years been on both the Ilillmp and the Dial. Mark was also an active member of the chess club since its inception two years ago. Although he is undecided as to his future career, we are sure that with his ability he will be a success in any held he chooses. Track. S53 Glee Cluh, 55g Photography Cluh, SS. Curt's easy manner and quick smile have won him many friends since his ai'rival at Hackley from the hills of Colorado. where, we are told, he spent his last two years lighting Indians and rustling cattle. Since there is a scarcity ot Indians in the liast, upon arrival Curt found only a local medicine man to contend with, someone with whom he was able to converse in Spanish. Curt's wit and sense of humor have made him an interesting and entertaining.: companion on the Hilltop this year. and he will certainly he missed. His easy adaptation to any situation enabled him to immediately take his place in the class. Bc-cause of his academic success and his ability to make friends. Curtiss is certain to succeed in whatever lield he enters. Mark Curt 2 f? 93 X 77 0 'fi F' Af f f fs NX 'T T il H ':: , . , . . , . 'N Q . MARK l'lNlxl:l.b'll1IN ff 1 5 me I n n. .

Sam is California's most outstanding contribution to Hackley. During the fall season, Sam was a worthwhile contribution to the soccer team and was one who will be impossible to replace. When one visits the senior corridor, one can hear the quiet strains of Dave Brubeck's music, while Sam demonstrates the California-style be-bop. Sam partakes in all school affairs with enthusiasm, such as the Glee Club, school plays, and is always willing to lend a hand where it is needed. The Hilltop realizes that it is losing a great person and wishes him all the success in the future. Football, 53, 545 Wrestling, 54-55. Drew, as he is known to his friends, came North in his junior year, and Hackley has not been the same since. Drew, despite gaining the title of the heaviest heavyweight on the football team, was a social athlete, his interests lay in other Fields. Dukie took an active interest in the photog- raphy club, and made a rapid rise to the vice-presidency of the smoking room. So, through many trials, tribulations, stories, and laughs. Drew has wound up his career at Hackley, All of his friends wish him the best of luck, and, if it does not require too much work, we are sure that he will attain his goals, Sam,' Drewie x I , ' Sl -N ' 'H f W , X D y Q - G 0 V, , 1 i ,gf -V 'N c.

Since the Fredonia Flash invaded the peaceful hill- top in the fall of 1948, Hackley has undergone an over- whelming metamor hosis. jake. due to his amazing sense of humor, proved to be one of the most sparkling personalities of the institution. jake's smooth personality, combined with an elegant line, has necessitated the purchase of more than one little black book. His exciting tales of hunting in the backwoods of Fre- donia have been the inspiration for many bull sessions. , ln the field of athletics, the little Elf has distinguished himself through not only his natural ability but also his com- petitive spirit. Captain and undefeated wrestler, he has con- tributed more to that organization than any boy in the school. Wrestling. 553 Tennis. 553 Cum Laude. Bob came to Hackley in his junior year. His diminutive size was so astonishing that as he entered his first English class, Mr. Clough, pointing at him. said, The Lower School is that way. Soon Bob ranked among the biggest brains in his classs. Bob is extremely interested in fishing and has worked out ingenious methods of catching tish. He ties flies in an intricate manner and one which far surpasses commercial methods. When he is not fishing, Bob is found skiing at his parents' ski lodge in Vermont.

ACTIVITIES 1955 HIS year activities at Hacliley took a step upward from what they had been in the past, Certainly credit must be given to those faculty members who acted as ad- visers lor the various organizationsg but the major contributing factor to the sharp rise in extra-curricular interest was the spirit of the senior class. Desirous of establishing itself in Haclcley history, the class of 'ii sought to improve every extrascurricular activity and to impart their zeal for improvement to underclassmen. The first indication ot. things to come began with the Octet's recital during the tea which followed the St. Paul's football game. Although Wfaring liorgot his words and had to be rescued by Mr. Hunke, the Octet showed that they could sing, not only with correctness and tone, but also with a bit of hamming and humorous touches. Wliile the Octet went singing on their joyous way, school government began to take form. lt would not be an exaggeration to say that this year's government came closer to gaining the desired end of all school governmentsamaking the student think and take an active part in school affairs-than any preceding government at Hackley. Al l'l1llil1.lSll, school president, led school and Community Council meetings with this end in mind. Although important measures such as the proposed Honor System were not passed, they created heated disputes which aroused in the students interest in their school, Meanwhile the lirst issue of the Dial was distributed. The paper showed ii many improvements over the issues published in previous years. A new format which gave the paper a better appearance and made it more readable, a new type of paper which enabled the editors to publish more issues, well written articles which held the interest of the reader, and an excellent editorial section which carried on the work which had been started by the school government, were all features which greatly added to the excellence of the paper. The Glee Club sojourned to Rye for a concert with Rye Country Day and gave a lovely, lovely rendition of Holiday Song. After the concert, a dance was held and this afforded many boys with the opportunity of making friends with many of the lovely, lovely Rye girls. New friends were also acquired at the Bronxville Sub-Deb group and at the Kent Place School. At the fourth concert of the year old acquaintances were renewed as Rye Country Day travelled to Hackley for a return concert. The hnal appearance on May twenty-hrst was the biggest success of the year. Goodhue Hall was jammed with people who had come to hear the singing of the Glee Club and the Octet. In addition to their standard repertoire, the Glee Club sang selections from jumbo The Octet, with Waring having memorized his words, showed that the praises which they had received during their appearance on television and as partici- pants in the Thursday Club Revue were not unfounded. Probably the most active group in the school, the seven students and a piano player had made twenty-seven appearances throughout the year. The Dial continued to improve as the year progressed, and at the Columbia University Scholastic Press Association the paper took third place in a competition which included over three thousand publications from all parts of the nation. At a debate at Blair Academy, Hackley's team, composed of jim Ridgeway and Al Bakhash, took first place and thereby defeated Lawrenceville, Hill, Collegiate, Blair, and Morristown. The Hilltop came out at the end of the year and showed many improvements. Two seniors to a page, a new set-up for athletics, and other features greatly increased its readability. Whit Lane's and Cap Beatie's caricatures were a great addition to the book. It was an outstanding year for extra-curricular activities and on them the class of '55 had made a distinct and lasting impression.

THE COMMUNITY COUNCIL H12 Communiy Council may well be called the chief organ ot' Hackley's student government. Here a greater part of student' legislation is proposed, enacted, and put into etfectg suggestions are made in an effort to improve social and educational lilie at Haclcleyg and discussions are held concerning the entire student body. 'l'he council is composed ot' thirteen membersg the president and vice-president ol' the student body, two faculty representatives, nine elected members who represent every class in the school, and the Headmaster, who acts as advisor. Each member of the Council has equal voting power, for Hackley's concept ot student government is equality tor all. The faculty representatives are Messrs. Engleman, Clough, MacArthur, and L. Miller. Bill Cunningham, Bill MacArthur, Hans Kertess, Dave Ridgeway, Bruce Weluster, Al McDowell, john Kades, Kenny Sothern, Raul Fuentes, Phil Lord, Phil Couse, Bruce Wfatertall, Chase Wariiig and Al Bakhash are the student representatives, The members ot' the Council have served the school as leaders in student government, by their spirit and good example. A school treasury was begun under them, a school tie was adopted, an honor system was proposed, and countless other problems were solved quickly and well, The Community Council is an organization of which Hackley may well bc proud. 55 Fflflif mug left tn 1'fKQbffMCSSCfS King, F.

THE BOARD OF MAGISTRATES INCE 1951 the Board of Magistrates has functioned as the judicial branch of student government at Hackley. It has, since its formation, filled a pressing need which the old Community Council was unable to fulfill. The Board of Magistrates is composed of six members, three students and three faculty, with the Director of School Citizenship presenting the case and the Headmaster sitting as chairman. The members of the board are appointed by the Community Council, The Head- master as chairman does not vote except in case of a tie. In extreme cases he holds the right of veto. Each accused is given an opportunity to state his case before the assembled board before any decision is made. It goes without saying that the Board of Magistrates remains above any political aspect of student government. It does, however, further the community type system of student government in that faculty and students sit together with equal voting power. Members of the 1934-55 Board of Magistrates are: Mr, Hanford, Ernie Alvarez, Mr. Calderhead, jim Ridgeway, Phil Lord, and Mr. King. 56 CGRRIDOR MON ITGRS ITH great trepidation the corridor monitors of this year entered their new domainsg but soon found that their tasks were not as arduous as they had be- lieved them to be. The new freshmen were soon brought into line by jacques Levy and jack Gugino, and it must be admitted that under these monitors' tyranny no freshman has ever dared behave so well. The sophomore corridor was run this year by Messrs. Lane and Chajet Inc., and if you do not believe it, ask Mr. Clough. The juniors this year were given an example of what South American discipline is, and it is a good thing that the peasants did not revolt against Alfredo Aboumrad and Ernest Alvarez. The Persians were the undisputed shahs of the senior corridor, but it is rumored that Alfred Khazzorie Bakash and Ron Abood Aghassipour had more than their hands full with the weird characters that frequented that neek of the woods. All in all how- ver, the monitors did a good job in taking care of their chargesg the mortality rate was lower than usual on most corridorsg and all of these monitors telt that there is a soft spot held by all the little children for their uncles, Therefore the Faculty, board- ers, dayboys, and staff join in saluting these brave souls, and wish them all the luck that they sometimes deserve. liiril mug ltff In riglvl--Ahoumrad, Baklmsh, Aghassipour, Alvarez.

Many ideals and accoznplishmentg of 1955 have been recorded for the seniors to remember, and for the underclagsmen to hold as the goals to be attained in succeeding years. The staff had their work cut out for them from the beginning of the year, Plao os graphs had to be taken, selected, and identified, write-ups had to be written, edited, and proofread, conferences had to be held with the publisherg layouts had to be plannedg ads had to be sold, and leaflets had to be sent to parents and alumni. Much credit for the beauty and form of our book is extended to our advisor, Mr. Clough, Editor-in-Chief Chase Waring, and Mr. Dexter, who took most ot' the pho.o- graphs. Special credit goes to Art Editor Whitney Lane and his assistant Cap Beatie for doing an exceptional job in drawing the many caricatures and dividers which make this year's Hilltop truly artistic and unusual. The members of the staff who have not yet been mentioned, but who deserve much credit too are: Bruce Waterfall, Sports Editor, Pete Whiting, Photography Editor, Bruce Oatman, Activities Editorg Mark Finkelstein, Business Manager, who was assisted by Andy Cahn and Clive Cfhajetg and Hugh Ferry. We have now come to harvest time-proudly we present our treasury of memories for 1955. Firif mir, Iefl lu rigfri- flfinkelstein, Waring, Mr. Clough. Uatman.

THE HACKLEY HE HACKLEY which publishes the good creative writing of the students is the literary magazine of l-laekley School. All boys who have an active interest in any particular field, or who just enjoy relating a good story, can give vent to their thoughts via this publication. It is the duty and aim of The Hackley board to single out themes which are suitable and interesting enough for publication, These compositions are then corrected for errors and sent out for printing. This year the statt consists of the faculty advisor, Dr. Bisbeeg Pascal lmperato, Editor-in-Chiefg and the associate editors, 'Ianko Rasic, jim Ridgeway, john Becker, and Elie Shashoua. The Hrzckleqy wishes to publish the best literary efforts ot' both the LIPPCI' and lower classes to aticord boys of all ages the opportunity to contribute their own work. 'llie magazine offers an outlet not only for future authors, but also for boys who wish to develop a writing talent, and wish to see their chef-d'oeuvres in print. 59 --4' nw Firrf mir, left In 1'fghlfSl11lSl'lUU2l, Aghassipour, j.

THE DIAL HE DIAL, the newspaper of l-lackley School, is entirely organized, edited and written by a small group of the student body under the advisorship of Mr. Calder- head. The Co-Editors-in-Chief, Al Bakash and jim Ridgeway, are assisted by a staff ol' managing editors: Deri Meier, janko Rasic, Dave Ridgeway, Elie Shashoua, Skip Sil- loway, and Jim Wooteim, who' is in charge of photography. Ron Aghassipour and Andy Cahn are the business and advertising managers and are assisted by Mark Finkelstein. The paper is composed of articles selected by the editors and then written by mem- bers of the student body. Every writer is responsible for the source and authenticity ol' the news he presents in his article. This year the paper has made prodigious improvements. An increased number of issues has been planned, and through vigorous management, the advertising in the paper has been greatly increased. One of the aims of the staffs has been to present news which is interesting and up-to-date, and in this respect the Dial has been unusually successful. The editors have entered their paper in the Columbia Preparatory School Newspaper. Conference, in which all the leading preparatory school papers have been entered. f 60 THE LIBRARY CQMMITTEE HE Library Committee is a comparatively new Hackley organization, having been organized in 19-47. The committee is responsible for the general policies of the library, the rules and regulations Linder which it operates, and, when necessary, the enforcement of these rules. In the past the Library Committee, headed by Mr. Gillim, has carried on periodic crusades in quest of missing books. This year the number of missing volumes has decreased greatly largely due to the careful handling of the problem by the committee. The Library Committee has also made it possible to keep open the library at odd hours for boarding students. Members of the organization have acted as supervisors during these periods. Plans for drawing up new by-laws are being made. This year the Library Committee has had as joint chairmen Phil Schrefer and Cap Beatie, both of the class of '55. Al Bakhash is also a member from the senior class. junior class members are Eric Schaffhausen and Eli Shashoua. Representatives from the class of '57 are Jonathan Kades, john Rode, Dave Ridgeway, Steve Vessey, and Fred Thaxter. The freshmen members are Hal Kroeger and jack Larson. The possibility of Lower School representation is being considered. Faculty members are Messrs. Havens, King, and Mrs. Calderhead and Mrs. Gillim. lfml mir. lei! In I'jKH!7f7'lx'll'. Haxens.

A call for members brought in interested boys from all classes of the upper school. The hrst task of the committee was to organize the fall distribution of pledge cards which gave students and faculty a chance to contribute to such charities as the Red Cross, the Cancer Society, the Tuberculosis Association, the Community Chest, the XVorld Student Service Fund, and the United jewish Appeal. By giving generously, Students had the opportunity to help these worthwhile causes. Perhaps the most noteworthy undertaking of the Social Service Committee is the l-lackley Community Camp, which annually provides the under privileged children ef the Tarrytowns a chance to come to the Hilltop for two weeks. The children are given full use of Hackley's facilities and are under the supervision of members of the junior and senior classes. Most of the funds needed for the operation of the camp are raised by the Committee, The Social Service Committee is one of the most popular organizations in the school, as is shown by the number of students participating in its activities. Under the direction of Mr. Roberts and president Bruce Waterfall, the committee serves as a link between the community and the school.

Three subscription dances at the Ardsley Country Club, the Hackley Wfinter Ball, and a Christmas Holiday Dance at the Sleepy Hollow Country Club were also on the Octet schedule. Undoubtedly their largest audience, however, were the many thou- sands who watched them via Channel 4-NBC on january 18th in the show, Sentimental You. Although this was only a New York-area telecast, the Octet received wires and letters from Hackley alumni viewers as far north as Wfesleyan University in Middle- town, Connecticut, and as far south as Philadelphia. CAs a memento of the program, Mr. Hunke now displays a handsome fishing rod, a gift of one of the show's sponsorslj Rc-hearsing almost entirely in their own spare time, the Octet managed to find at least two free evenings for dinners in New York City followed by performances of On Your Toes and Fanny For the Christmas Vesper Service and Baccalaureate Sunday a special choir of twenty- six voices from the Glee Club presented religious music prepared for those services and, in some cases, used also in public concerts. Choir members, like the Octet, are selected on the basis of proficiency in vocal music and general musicality. Members ot the Octet, however, must also succeed in competitive try-outs from a list of fifteen to eighteen Glee Club members designated by the director. Wfilliam W. Beers, jr., '55, was president, and M. Chase Wariiig, '55, served as I.ibrarian. The Octet. in addition to Beers and Wariiig, included Richard C, Anthony, '56, Russel H. Beatie, jr., '55, Melvin Cruger, '56, Bruce W. Oatman, '55, H. Kenney Sothern, '56g and Mr. Wiirreii Hunke, director of the Glee Club, who sings with the Octet as first tenor. 64 THE BOARD OF DEACONS HE Board ol' Deacons is the student organization under the direction ol' our chaplain, Mr. Roberts, which is concerned with developing interest in the religious lille on the campus. The six senior members of the Board, including the chaplain are: President Bruce Xwatertall, Al Aboumrad, Ernie Alvarez, Al Bakash, and Phil Lord. Newly elected junior members are: Raul Fuentes and Peter Wlmitiilg. The members of the Board serve as chapel ushers and are responsible for other duties connected with OLII' Sunday evening and Thursday morning chapel services. Although thc traditional Masters-Hacl-:ley discussion groups were not held this year the Deacons held a meeting with the youth group of Bronxville's West Center Church and interested Hackley students. Each year, members ot' the Board, or other interested students attend various young peoples religious conferences. This year, Hackley was well represented by Phil Couse, Al Bakash and jim Ridgeway at the Buck Hills Falls Conference in Pennsylvania, where discussions were held with representatives from other boys' and girls' schools in this area. lfnil mzzg ld!

The Club was ably led by Ernie Alvarez and Al Aboumrad, president and vice-president respectively, and was advised by two faculty members, Mr. john Hanford and Dr. Harold Bisbee. As the meetings the students saw foreign movies and slides, and heard talks by various members about their own countries or countries they have visited. During the year the club organizes two or three excursions to New York where thc members usually eat at a Latin American restaurant and aftrewards attend a show. Each year, the International Club presents Hackley with a gift, and in order to raise funds for it, the club sponsors one or two dances each year which are invariably successes. In the past two years the club has completely furnished a room and has presented the school with a much wanted television set. Because the International Club is composed of members from many different countries, it serves as a means of better international relations as well as a means of acquiring a firsthand knowledge of neighboring countries.

THE VARSITY CLUB HE Varsity H Club was formed so that Hatkley might honor its outstanding athletes. Honorary memberships have also been extended to other people who, in association with athletits, have distinguished themselves. ln order to be admitted to the Varsity H Club, a boy must have earned a minimum of two varsity letters, and must have shown good training habits and equally good sportsmanship. If .1 student fulfills these requirements he is voted on hy the members of the club for admission. Although the Varsity H Club is .1 comparatively small group, it has sponsored dances and other school affairs. The elub also takes trips to New York where its members attend outstanding sports events. This year the Varsity H Club is under the leadership ol' Mr. Peter Slader, and lirnie Alvarez, who is the president. Other members of the club are Terry Wilsoii, Raul Fuentes, George Graterole, Skip Silloway, Al Bakash, jack Gugino, jacques Levy, Ed Prudhomme, Bruce Wgtterftill, and a newly elected member, Ron Aghassipour. 67 Fifflf wir. left m I'fgf7fiB3I'1Lll'C.

THE BLACK AND GREY KEY HE Black and Grey Key was formed in 1951 when the school realized that it had need ot some kind of welcoming committee for visiting teams and school functions. The duties performed by the Black and Grey Key include selling football prograins, tending the scoreboard, ushering, collecting tickets, serving at teas, and welcoming visitors. This year the club has taken in many new members who have ably assisted in carry- init out its duties, and because of the increase in membership the club has had to set up a constitution which dehnes the aims ol' the organization and duties of the indi- vidual. A member who has served with distinction receives the club insignia, a silver key. The Black and Grey Key is one of the organizations of the school which is completely voluntary, and a member must be willing to sacrifice much of his free time, The club is under the leadership of Mr. Hanford. 68 .xi Y ATHLETICS ri E 4 S 5 PW 5 I E.

ATHLETICS 1955 HIE Hackley-Nyack football game opened the 1954-55 athletic season at Hackley. That game was a hint of a lean season for sports on the Hilltop, for it was a contest hard fought but lost because of bad luck. Nyack was a team which outweighed and outran but never outfought Hackley. Fortune indeed seemed to be on the side of the opposition, for, with five minutes more, the Hornets would have taken the game. The rest of the football season fell into this same patterng in only the St. Paul's and P. M. A. games did the eleven break the jink and defeat their opponents. Although llackley usually ended on the short end of the score, there was much to commend these games. Wllait boy will forget Terry WllSOI1lS fleet-footed runs around end, lirnie Alvarez's tank-like charges through the line, or K. C, Smiths smooth execution of intricate plays? Wlio will not remember the Hackley lines goal line stands in the lingry and Riverdale games? Playing over their heads for the majority of the season, it is surprising that the Hornets fared as well as they did. The soccer team did con- siderably better, but they too had their difiiculties. Here again, luck seemed to favor our opponents, The New York Military Academy-Hackley game was testimony enough to this. However, all was not luck and the booters proved this in their game against Ivy League champion Riverdale. Excellent play by Graterol, Aboumrad, and Captain Fuentes enabled Hackley to defeat the Indians for the fourth straight year. lleatie, Ridgeway, and Welvstc-r led the Cross Country team through a season of two wins and two defeats. 71 The winter season saw little change in luck for the Hornets. Varsity basketball was hardest sit, winning but four of their fifteen contests. Perhaps what this team lacked was an individual star such as Savage and DePalo, stars of former years. The swimming team had the individual stars, but was without depth. Even so, the team compiled a 6-5-1 record. Waterfall and Meier seemed to be able to win every time, but the lack of men in the backstroke and in the breaststroke departments prevented the team from doing better. Many records were broken this year: Waterfall set a new 100 yard free- style record with the time of 57.5, a new 200 yard freestyle record clocked at 2:12.53 Kades broke the 50 yard freestyle record at 26.9g the medley relay team composed of Oatman, Rode, and Davis turned in a new record of 1:55.15 and the freestyle relay team of Kades, Driscoll, Meier, and Waterfall set another record at 1:23.2. The wrestling team also did not fare badly. Phil Schrefer, in the 123 pound class, and Captain jack Gugino, in the 138 pound class, both compiled undefeated records, while most of the other members of the team won the majority of their matches. A tie for first place in the P. P. S. A. A. showed the skill and the training which these boys had. The fencing team under their new coach showed the same determination in reversing an early defeat at the hands of Storm King. Captain Alvarez, Ridgeway, and Vivas showed that they were a match for any group. The spring season seemed to be the turning point for the fortunes of Hackley sports, Although the teams have not as yet completed their seasons, they have shown great promise in the earlier games. The baseball team exhibited the qualities of an excellent nine in their first few games. Pitcher Ken Sothern has the speed, control, and stuff which make a superior hurlerg whereas the infield, although starting off shakily, continues to improve. The boys in outfield show that they can not only field, but also hit as well. The track team indicates the greatest promise of all. In a meet at which Trinity was crushed, the Hornets revealed individual stars in all departments. Terry Wilson, the outstanding performer, seemed incapable of being beaten. Participating in the 100, 440, shotput, high jump, broad jump, and relay, there was little left for T to conquer. What there was remaining was handled ably by such men as Beatie, Couse, Prudhomme, and Alvarez. The tennis team, led by Dickie Katz, showed strength in the early matches. Athletics have started slowly at Hackley, but with the school spirit that has been shown this year, it was inevitable that they should improve, HHCKLEE1 uisnom ' f X X wooo 00 - .

VARSITY FOOTBALL LARGE number of candidates turned out for football camp this year, but the team was unable to compile any better record than two wins and six losses. However, this record is not indicative of the excellent spirit shown by the 1954 football team. Undoubtedly this years team faced one of the most formidable schedules in several years. The team went down to defeat in the first game of the season, being beaten by a strong Nyack eleven, Hackley scored hrstg but the Hornet's defense was unable to stop the explosive Nyack offense, and the score at the half stood 19-6 in favor of Nyack. The Black and Grey were unable to move until Nyack had Scored one more touchdown. The Hornets fought back garnely, Terry Wilsotm scoring all three Hackley touchdowns. However, due to an inability to kick extra points, Hackley ended up on the long end of a 25-24 score. Having sharpened up on defense, the team traveled to Elizabeth to play Pingry. Pingry was unable to score on the ground and obtained their only touchdown on a short pass. Fumbles seemed to be the order of the day for Hackley, and the Hornets lost several opportunities to score. The final score: Pingry 7-Hackley O. The Pennington game was Hackley's worst game. The visitors romped tive touch- downs without completing a single pass while the Black and Grey were able to tally only two. The final score: Pennington 30, Hackley 13. 75 At Pawling the Hornets ran up against the Trinity-Pawling powerhouse, undefeated to that time. However, it was not until the last quarter that the game was sewed up by T.-P., for it was in this quarter that they scored two of their three touchdowns. The final score stood: Trinity-Pawling 20, Hackley 0. After the game, some of the Trinity- Pawling players commented that Hackley was the toughest team they had faced. The Black and Grey's potentialities were not realized until the St. Pauls game. The Hornets scored five TDs while allowing the visitors only one. K. C. Smith was the star of the game, scoring four touchdowns. The team scored in each period, making the score Hackley 32, St. Pauls 6. In the last home game, Hackley faced P. M. A., always a formidable opponent. The Hornets were in no mood to trifie and scored four touchdowns in the first half. In the second half, the team had little difficulty in scoring their fifth touchdown. Terry Wilson, behind the second-string line, put the final touch on. Hackley won 38 to 6. A much stronger team was to be found at Storm King, and the team suffered its fifth loss. Unable to score in the hrst half, the Hornets found two opportunities in the second half. It was a new team that faced Storm King in that half, and perhaps with another quarter, Hackley might have turned the tables. The final score: Storm King 34, Hackley 14. This victory gave them an undefeated season. The team then faced archrival Riverdale. In the first half Riverdale scored two touchdowns, while Hackley's Smith ran a punt back for a touchdown. The Riverdale Indians were able to score two more touchdowns but not without allowing Terry Wilson to make a spectacular catch in their end zone. An amazing thing about this game was the Hornet's refusal to throw in the towel. It was not until the closing whistle that the Indians had been sure they had won. A great tribute to a great team.

Mr, lingclman, VARSITY SOCCER l:EW more than fifty boys gathered on the soccer field at the opening of thc 195-1 season. From these fifty, Coach Engelman selected approximately twenty- four, the twenty-four who were to constitute the varsity squad. Witli only George Graterol, Al Aboumard, Al Bakhash, Raul Fuentes and Henry Vivas returning from last year's starting team and with relatively few boys who had ever played soccer before, Coach Engelman had his work well cut out for him. Never- theless a team was slowly molded together by expert hands. October 8th saw the Hornets begin their season with a victory. lt was Bellows High followed by Bronxville who first fell before the Hornet offense. Graterol and Aboumracl notched their first goals here, a sign of what they were to do later in the season. Playing well and with determination, the Hornets met their match against powerful N. Y, M. A. and despite the fine work of Camera, the full backs, and the half backs, the final score was I-0 in favor of N. Y. M. A. journeying down to the city the following week, the Hornets met Horace Mann on a wet, sloppy day. Behind I-0 in the fourth quarter, the team suddenly found large holes in the center and Aboumrad and Fuentes scored in succession to bring home the third Hornet victory. Playing what seemed to be a football team, the Hornets crushed Trinity-Pawling by scoring no less than four times. Excellent work on the part 75 SCORES Bellows High 2 .,,,,,.,.,. AA..A......

However, over-confidence soon took its tool as a poor Bellows team beat Hackley soundly. An excellent goalie stopped our shots to save the day for Bellows. Following on the heels of disappointment came a second disheartening defeat at the hands of P. M. A. Despite two well-shot goals by Andy Gurney, the Military Academy scoring three times, was not to be beaten. Much the wiser, the team made quick work of a rather surprised Scarsdale team. Once more Graterol, Aboumrad, and Fuentes rose to the occasion and scored for Hackley, while fullback Jacobs, helped by Ridgeway and Shashoua, displayed the fine form they had shown off at the N. Y. M. A. The biggest game was yet to come, for Riverdale was next on the agenda. Champion of the Ivy League and boasting a nine and two record, Riverdale's fame had spread far and wide. The Hornets were up against powerful rivals. Two determined teams waited anxiously for the starting whistle on a wet held. Playing hard against a formidable backfield and a fast line, Hackley squeezed its first point on a shot by Graterol. Riverdale bounced back to score in the third quarter and the final whistle found both teams in a deadlock. As the clock ticked away the final seconds of a ten minute overtime period, Aboumrad pounced on a pass from Estopinan and scrabled into the goal with the ball, For the fourth straight year the Hornets had humbled Riverdale, the champions of the Ivy League were beaten. The 1954 soccer team was certainly not a highly skilled one. There was no Simon Smith, but Vivas did admirablyg joe Jacobs, Shashoua, and Ridgeway showed aggres- siveness beyond expectancy. One need only have Ron Aghassipour emerge from a dash leaving two men prostrate behind him or janko Rasic stop the famed Riverdale wing in his tracks to realize that they had great spirit. Raul Fuentes who led the team in defeat and victory, George Graterol who played every different position at one time or another and Al Aboumrad, high scorer for the season, enjoyed the soccer and played with a keen sense of sportsmanship and determination. Al Bakhash, who ran the inside slot, Estopinan, who made a Riverdale victory possibleg john Camera, who stopped goal shot after goal shot, and Woody Griffith to one goal played hard and fast all season. 76 Fin! wuz lefl tu riglnl-Prudhomme, Myers, Cruger, Kincaide, Aghassipour.

VARSITY WRESTLING S a climax to a very successful six win four loss and one tie season, the Varsity Wrestling team tied for flrst place honors in the Wfestchester Private and Parochial Schools Association's Annual Tournament. This year, the squad was essentially one of seniors, with lettermen of last year jack Gugino, Jacques Levy, Phil Schrefer, Ed Prudhomme, Ron Aghassipour, Al Bakhash and Eric Arens returning to contribute their services to the team. In addition, new- comers Wild Bill Kincaide, Mel Cruger, Cap Beatie and Ed Davidoff rounded out the squad and lent encouraging support. In the 105 pound class, a newcomer to the sport, Ed Davidoff, proved his interest by his vigor in a number of well-fought matches. Eric Arens, a sophomore, occupying the 112 pound slot, had a successful season with five victories. One of the most improved wrestlers in recent years was Phil Schrefer who completed an undefeated season, as primary contender in the 123 pound class, and high scorer for the team. Noteworthy was his performance in the finals of the annual P. P. S. A. A. tournament where he defeated his opponent in a brilliant match. Cap Beatie, a novice, proved his ability by boasting a six win-four loss record for the year, in the 127 pound class. By dint of diligence and good training habits, Cap showed remarkable improvement throughout the season. Jacques Levy, in the 133 pound class, compiled a record of 10 victories against 3 defeats. 77 Perhaps the most skilled wrestler at I-lackley in recent years was jack Gugino, team captain, in the 138 pound class. jack has been undefeated for 20 consecutive bouts over the last three years and, in addition, has been the recipient of two W. P. P. S. A. A. first-place trophies. His determination, above all, has carried him successfully to his numerous victories. In the 145 pound class, Ron Aghassipour completed a successful year, winning 6 of his 11 bouts. His aggressiveness on the mat identified Ron as a determined wrestler, and one very willing to learn. Captain-Elect Bill Kincaide, a promising sophomore in the 154 pound class, ended the season with a record of seven wins and hve defeats. He learned much during his hrst season at Hackley and is certain to improve greatly in his next two years. Mel Cruger and Mike Meyers, alternating in the 165 pound class, both showed notable skill, considering neither had wrestled before this year. The unlimited class was capably filled by Ed Little Bear Prudhomme. Even his encouraging record of 6 wins and S defeats cannot be completely indicative of Ed's prowess on the mat, for he has opposed some of the best wrestlers in this vicinity. Ed's strength and will-power have supplemented his skill to great advantage. Alfred Bakhash, although wrestling only a portion of the season, compiled a 3 win, one loss record, all three of his victories owing to pins. The success of the team was due in no small part to coaches Bill Calderhead and Larry Miller, both of whom devoted much of their personal leisure time to the interest of the team. Coach Calderheads expert instruction, and Larry Miller's service as spar- ring partner, were vital to each member of the team, Commendation is also extended to the good work of managers George Graterol and Eli Shashoua.

VARSITY SWIMMING HROUGH years of building on the part of Coach Engelman, the Hackley swimming team enjoyed one of its best seasons in recent years. The team, led by Captain Waterfall, emerged with a 6-3-1 record which was one of the best enjoyed by the school this year. From the aspect of past standards and records, this was the best team that Hackley ever had, but due to stifling competition, their over-all won-lost record was not as good as several previous teams. Opening the season against Nyack High- School, Hackley put on a poor display be- cause they had only seven days of practice since vacation. Waterfall and Kades took the only individual firsts, but the victories of the relay teams gave Hackley the majority of points. journeying over to Mamaroneck, Hackley absorbed its worse defeat, losing to a powerful Mamaroneck team by thirty points. Captain Waterfall took the only first in the 200 with a record of 2:l3.2. With a record of one defeat and one tie, Hackley opened its home stand against Peekskill High School and emerged victorious with a 36-30 score. Kades, Rode and Meier took first for Hackley in 40, 100 back and freestyle respectively. The meet was in doubt until the final relay which I-Iackley took with a time of 1:2-4.4. The team had hit its stride and was in hne condition for the Hopkins meet, a meet in which Hackley swam away with five of eight first places.

Hackley was ahead from the opening gun with record performances turned in by Meier and Waterfall in the freestyle relay team with times of 58.3, 2:12.5, and 1249.3 in the 100 free and 200 free relay. The next two meets provided the only two blemishes in Hackley's record for the rest of the season. Trinity-Pawling managed to beat Hackley by a substantial score of 45-21. The most exciting meet of the year occurred against P. M. A., the best prep school swimming team in New York. The meet was headed by the first relay which proved to be a draw. If Hackley had won the next, the meet would have been tiedg the relay team did a creditable job in this race, breaking both school records. After these two defeats, Hackley came back strongly against both Horace Mann and and N. Y. M. A. The Horace Mann meet was won by a 26-40 count when again, the final relay was the deciding point. The N. Y. M. A. meet was a different story with Hackley rolling over its opponent by a 50-16 count. The Hackley swimmers in this meet took six out of eight first places, many by large margins. The Stepinac meet was another victory for Hackley, thereby completing its record of 6-3-1. The climax of the season was the P. P. S. A. A. Swimming Tournament at Horace Mann. Led by Waterfall and Meier, with a 2nd and 1st in the 100 and 200, Hackley gained third place behind P. M. A.'s McBervey. The biggest surprise of the meet was the good showing of the relay team which had been overlooked. The team placed second behind P. M. A. with both squads breaking the old record of 1:46.3. The year was closed by the record setting performance of Waterfall and Kades who set a new standard of 126.9 in the hfty, while Waterfall set marks of 257.8 and 2:12.5 in the 100 and 200 freestyle. The medley relay team of Oatman, Rode, and Davis turned in a new record of 1:55.1 in the medley relay and the freestyle relay set both school and pool records with a 1:25.2 clocking. A note of thanks should go to the Fathers Association who made it possible for a filtering system to be installed in our pool. This will attract many more boys to the sport and greatly increase Hackley as a swimming power in years to come. 80 Ifirxil mum lvff In 1'igl1f+Katz, Fuentes. Smith. Sillnway fffaptl.

At the end of the P. P. S. A. A. tournament, the team had registered -l wins and ll defeats. Wherl practice began after Thanksgiving vacation, there was .i new coach, Mr. Russell Brown, and one holdover from last year's starting tive. The other few members of the squad were inexperienced for the most part. Everyone on the team was unfamiliar with the new coaches brand of basketball which was entirely different from that of the previous years. Beside that, the tallest man on the team was only 6' 2 which did not compare favorably with most of our opponents. However, what the team lacked in height and experience, they hoped to make up for in speed and hustle. This task proved a little too hard for the boys, but it was not from lack of effort. The first game was dropped to a more experienced Horace Mann tive. Then came the first victory over the alumni in five years. At this point hopes were high for a good season, But the hopes were quickly dashed by consecutive losses to P. M. A., St. Pauls Trinity, and Scarborough. The team was plagued by very bad first halves and momentary lapses throughout the game in which the opposing team would gain insurmountable leads. Two victories in a row over P. M. A. and Storm King again brought rooters to the gym. However, they were driven away by more losses to Sacred Heart. New York School for the Deaf, St. Peters, Concordia, and Riverdale. The only noteworthy aspect 81 of those games was the one point loss to a highly rated N. Y. S. D. team. Sloppy basketball characterized the other games although many of the teams were superior to the Hornets in skill and size. The regular season play having been completed, the team entered the Westc'hester Private and Parochial Athletic Association Tournament at the County Center in White Plains. In the lirst round, a victory was gained over a smaller Columbia Grammar team. The next night Hackley was once again defeated by Concordia, although they played one of the year's best games. Concordia's margin of victory was twenty points less than that of the regular season game. Unfortunately it was not until this final game of the year that the Hornets reached their peak. Wlleil discussing the personnel of this year's squad, the outlook is considerably brighter. Captain Skip Silloway, who did an excellent job leading the team this year, will be sorely missed next campaign. His strong rebounding and shooting kept the team alive in many games this year. Dick Katz and Joe Jacobs will also leave a gap in next year's team. But the juniors and Sophomores who formed the nucleus of the team are all expected to return. Led by Captain-elect Woody Griffith, Raul Fuentes, Al McDowell, Bill Stamford, Eliot Mininberg, Casey Smith, and Murray Kemp will be on hand when the basketball season opens next year. The team had no actual leaders in the different departments. Skip Silloway and Al McDowell took charge of most of the rebounding, but the scoring was fairly equally divided between five or six members of the squad. Casey Smith excelled in ball-handling and defense, while Griffith, Fuentes, Katz, and Mininberg were outstanding shooters. livery member, howeverh performed well in all phases of the game.

However, the coach, in the form of an ex-Harvard fencer, Edison Tatham, was not long in coming. For the tirst time, fencing at Hackley took on an air of precision and dash. Operating in a long, narrow Salle D'Arme, Mr. Tatham put his varsity through fundamentals of the ancient sport time after time after time. The results were quick to come. Horace Mann, newly revitalized and full of determination, faced Hackley early in january. Captain Alvarez put an end to their vitality in short order, The final score stood Hackley 6, Horace Mann 3. A return bout, after further practice, ended in a complete Horace Mann rout. Hackley won 7-2. Then came a trip to the Highlands of the Hudson where Storm King too the Hornets, to the tune of 7-2, to task. But Storm King came hack to Hackley for a return meet, and it was this hnal event of the season which provided the thrills. Heavily overpowered, Hackley fought back time and again. Alvarez unnerved the opposition with his dashing attack, the sturdy hand of Henry Vivas notched point after pointg and Ridgeways persistence whittled down the attack. ln almost every hout Storm King would jump to an early lead. But Hackley was deter- minedg point after point was chalked up hy the Hornets. The final score stood Hackley 7, Storm King 2. lt was a tremendous upset. That very meet made it a fabulous season, but next year's promises to be even hetter. The novices are now versed in vital fundamentals, and with Henry Vivas as Captain, it should he an undefeated season. 83 Left to right-Gulick fMgr.J, Luamrung, Imperato, Reiner, Minnenherg, Katz fCapt.j, Samuel, Fuller.

MacArthur, Jr., had a formidable task trying to build a strong and well-balanced squad from a large and enthusiastic, although some- what inexperienced, group of tennis hopefuls. With practically no practice and because of the antics of Hurricane Edna on the backstop, the squad had tried to start on a rigorous twelve game schedule almost unprepared. Members of the squad as the season got under way were Captain Dick Katz, Bob Samuel, Elliot Minninberg, Bruce Hutchinson, Tony Spencer, Steve Reiner and Bob Gulick as manager. The schedule, which includes four matches in the first week of play, pits the Hornets against Horace Mann, Trinity, Collegiate, Hopkins, Trinity Pawling, Riverdale, Field- stone, Storm King and Scarsdale, finally, Hackley plays host in the P. P. S. A. A. tournament. In the first two of these matches, Hackley fell prey to Trinity and Horace Mann. In the first meet, Trinity showed unexpected strength and they defeated the Hornets, 4-1. Against Horace Mann, whose squad was also unusually strong this year, the Hornets were equally unsuccessful losing 8-1. With the courts in operation, the squad was able to practice daily and is looking forward to a successful season in spite of the slow start. 84 Firvl mu' ltfl lu riqlvf-Myers. Meier.

VARSITY BASEBALL ACKLEYS baseball team this year is in the process ot' rehuilding. Alter last year's highly successful team, a team which compiled a 9-2 record, only six lettermen returned, With the loss of Spina, Coach Slader was faced with the prospect ol' rehuild- ing his pitching staff around Ken Sothern and Casey Smith. The infield is fairly well set with Stanford, Fuentes, Smith and Ciraterol. The out- field is composed of all new men and it appears that Appel, Gritlith and Myer have nailed down the starting spots. Backing up the men are Meier, Grahisch, Bandre, Jacobs and Raff. In the first two games this season, the team has split 1-l. Opening against a strong Trinity team, Hackley was the victim of nervousness and inexperience, and came out on the short end of a 5-1 count. Bouncing back, however, Hackley on April 20, upended its traditional rival, Riverdale, 8-5. The team, though weaker than last year, still appears to he a good one and it looks as if it will do very well in the coming year. 85 Ifiril imc. fcfl lu rigl1lgB. Wfehster.

This score could be prophetic of victory if the returning lettermen are well hacked up by the newcomers to the squad, many of whom promise to be good. In the distance events, Cap Beatie and Dave Ridgeway return to make a strong pair, while two newcomers, Bruce Walterfalll and Phil Couse, will take care of the halt' mile. In the sprints, veterans Ernie Alvarez and Captain Terry Wilsoit will be well supported by Bill Kincaide and hurdler Phil Lord. Cap Beatie, a far from secure jumper, heads the high jump division, and it is here that we are really weak, but the broad jump is well catered for by Terry Wilsoii. jack Cugino. a strong pole vaulter, badly needs another man to help him in that section. The discus position is a little risky now, but Bob Vincent should improve with lime. As a tribute to Mr. Lindsay, who is now coaching his last track squad after twenty-six seasons, the team would like to make some real eHort, but it takes hard work. If this is to be a good season, it will need the support of every member of the squad in order to give Mr. Lindsay a really first rate send oft. 86 lfiiif mic, ltll In zigffl--li. Wfehster.

Because ot' the loss of captain-elect Chappell through transfer, a new captain, Clap Beatle, was elected. Cap soon proved himself' the master ol' the tough QV! mile course. Riding hard on his heels were Dave Ridgeway, Bruce Wfehster, and Dick Anthony. An early practice run with Wfashington Irving High School helped point out the main liaults in the llornet's running. An invitational meet at North Tarrytown followed shortly. On Uctoher 6th Hackley met defeat at the hands ol a strong Horace Mann team on the home course. Good times prevailed, however, with lieatie Placing a last third, tollowed hy Ridgeway and Wfehster. On Novemher 5rd, despite poor weather and a muddy track, an Irving team went to defeat. On Novemher 9th the team journeyed to Tihhets Brook tor the W. P. P. S, A. meet. lieatie finished lirst among the Hackley runners. Hackley triumphed again over Trinity on Novemher llth. Losing to a strong Sacred Heart team closed the season tor two wins and two losses. Letters were awarded to Cap Beatie, Steve Vessey, l.arry Appel, and to-taptains elect Dave Ridgeway and llrute Wfehster. 87 Eclgemont 6 ..

ATHLETIC BOARD OF CONTRGL HE athletic program at Hackley is under the guidance of a faculty-student committee, called the Athletic Board of Control. This board is the result of the Headmaster's request for a joint student and faculty group to discuss the problems and standards of the athletics at Hackley. Predominant in the Boards mind is the maintenance of high standards of sportsman- ship and the provision of proper athletic equipment and wholesome facilities for playing and dressing. The board functions as a guide for coaches on training regulations. It formulates the general standards an athlete must meet to qualify for a letter. The board's members include the Headmaster, athletic director, coaches of all varsity sports, other coaches of the current season, and the captains of all varsity sports. The Lower School is represented by its senior master and one other coach. Meetings are held approximately twice a term. The board is informed of the nature of the athletic budget and aids the athletic director in suggesting general expenditures. 91 f','w5'f 5'?w gn-2 1 gy, V x 'ex ,, .Wm W f. xl f. -4113 2 xf A Q J. ,N- , srtkw I K Kal ,:' X fx wish, '- ef 3 ,Q ,K L AW ff -1fH1Qf5f,j,1j .'A. f Q Q N ,- Wir fi 'W' ffv In fm. 8 ,L v 2 ilnqgk i y 5? ag Q as 52 C om plimentf Of THE HACKLEY MOTHERS' ASSOCIATION Q F I Q COYIZPZDIIBHIJ Of MR.
