T0 THE CLASS UF 1964 It is with mixed emotions that I write you this message of appreciation and farewell! While what I have to say here may be read by everyone, it is addressed directly to you, the seniors, who will so soon be college freshmen. We have experienced an interesting and, in some ways, a memorable year. This may well be one of the finest, if not fbe finest year in Hackley athletics. The football team climaxed a splendid and thrilling undefeated season with that tremendously exciting 20-20 tie game with powerful Riverdale, which also earned us a tie for the League championship. This winter both the wrestling and swimming teams have won Ivy League titles, with the wrestling team climaxing an undefeated season by its Hrst win of the Ivy League crown. In other areas the momentum of school life was interrupted by the Tuck Shop boycott, and the door-knob disappearances. As seniors you have personally led in all of these activities and episodes, and in general your leadership has been very good. We are satisfied that most of you are heading for college well prepared academically. We are less sure that all of you are completely emotionally mature enough and motivated enough to carry on your own education for, and by, yourself. The challenge which awaits you in college will test these qualities quickly and inexorably. To paraphrase the old chant of childhood - Ready or not - here you go! We wish you good luck and success in the years ahead. May you become loyal and interested Hackley alumni, returning to the Hilltop often whatever your success in life may be. Let us hear from you regularly, and find us some good boys to take your places. Qur best wishes go with you as you graduate. JW mazaa Headmaster p 6

E, the editors of the 1964 Hilllop, dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Walter Schneller with great appreciation for his outstanding service to Hackley. Few other masters approach his involvement with the school, Mr. Schneller serves on the faculty's execu- tive committee, on the Board of Magistrates, on the Community Council, as Secretary of the school's Cum Laude chapter, as Senior class advisor, as Senior Corridor Master, as Chairman of the History department, and advisor to the Forensic Society, Current Affairs Club, and Assembly Committee. In addition, he teaches both American and Asian History, and yet he still finds time to serve as faculty advisor to some students and to provide guidance to many others. Any student who has come into contact with Mr. Schneller cannot help but observe and appreciate the total involvement with the students and with Hackleyg and it is this impression of him that the students will long remember. He is a fine history teacher and a dedicated scholar, and neither will these qualities be forgotten. In commemoration of his first eight years at Hackley, the yearbook is gratefully dedicated to Mr. Schneller. DEDICA T I UN
