Ondsfer owe Now, the history of the Fourth Form dorm belongs to posterity, and, in future years, we will be able to look back on the year of 1948 with pride. During the course of the year we con- tributed our talents to almost every phase of school life, whether it was athletics or general extra-curricular activities. In ath- letics, we placed two of our number on the football team, namely Peirson and Zucker- man. With the arrival of ice and snow, Foust and Kent Weld found hockey an ade- quate outlet for their exuberance, while Peirson and Jones won prominent positions on the ski team. Aside from athletics we did our part in supplying the other various clubs, groups and teams. Rennie fired his voice and hit a good place on the debating team. Hamilton showed his dexterity on the rifie range and Linder brought home the game from the woods. Buffalo, very com- monly known as Brill, flashed his camera hither and thither and looked very profes- sional. Therefore, we can safely say that the Fourth Form dorm contained its share of students, athletes, camera fiends and all the other necessary ingredients for a well rounded class. The most complimentary note of our career has been our ability to work together. We feel that we have attained a sense of unity which makes us ready to accept the responsibilities of thc Fifth Form.

As did all other forms, we participated, and had varsity men, in all athletic activities. Likewise, all of the extra- curricular activities were participated in by some of our members. The one thing, per- haps, that distinguishes us from the remain- der of the school is the number of our mem- bers who have gained a high scholastic standing and whose names have constantly decorated that sacred scroll-the honor roll. Our academic achievements have been the footlights which have illuminated our entire year. It must not be thought, however, that we are just a group that chooses to engage in a few outside activities and remain the rest of the time studying in a closed -room. On the contrary, we have engaged in all the traditions for which the occupants of the chicken coop have been famous ever since that remarkable edifice has adorned the Holderness campus. Thus, dormitory wars, compulsory showers, and indoor hockey games have never given tradition a chance to disappear. Next year, with the responsibility that in- evitably comes with being a senior, we feel that our intellectual abilities will sober our present desires, and we hope that we will be able to perform with as good, and possibly with better, efliciency, the tasks which will face us.

Upper ivermore The eight members of the Second Form dormitory got off to a roaring start with a wide variety of sports, hobbies and demerits. In the fall, we had representatives out for both football and tennis, and, although we didn't possess any outstanding athletes, we can see some very bright prospects for the future. When winter arrived, we sent can- didates out for the three sportsg Rodger Hanson did well, performing for the ski team. The dorm also expects to have itself represented in the spring on the various squads. On the whole, we have one of the queerest selections of hobbies in the school. Tom McKenny arrived with an arsenal of guns that would make any man think twice before he trifled. Terry Weathers showed up with an odd assortment of model airplanes and the material for many more. Last but not least, Leach, on his arrival, promptly displayed an assortment of pin-up pictures which kept the powers that be busily pulling them down. In the line of demerits our dorm really excelled, with several of our members showing fine talent in acquiring the little yellow monsters. After the Christmas vacation, we received a new member, John Bridges, into our select few. Johnny brought with him a much be- loved Victrola and a grand assortment of five records. These, needless to say, have become quite familiar to all of us. We are sure that future years will find us doing our part and upholding the tradi- tions which are expected of every Holderness class.
