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

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.

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' .
