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
