gg IRVING SKETCH Book The Sketch Book Few .indeed, realize the enormous amount of work necessary for the production of such a publication as-the Sketch Book. Many are the de- tails of which the outstanding are: the financing, the photography, the engraving, and the assembling of the material for the dummy. It is the earnest desire of every Board to better the efforts of their predecessors. The accomplishment of this requires the cooperation of the entire student body. As an artist striving to paint a masterpiece is handi- capped by a lack of adequate facilities, just so is a Board handicapped by lack of interest on the part of those whom it vitally concerns. It is not out of place to mention here the fine work done by the mem- bers of this year's Board. x Too much credit cannot be given to the Editor-in-Chief, John Moore Richardson, Jr. The efficient way in which he worked was truly remark- able and his enthusiasm has served as a stimulus to all. G. Bartlett Brownell did creditable work as Assistant Editor-in-Chief. The finances of the book were aptly taken care of by Business Manager C. Dorsey Forrest, Advertising Managers, Harry C. Townsend, Edmund J. Abbott Jr., and Subscription Managers, Harry C. Jones Jr., and Gerald Murphy. The literary end was splendidly upheld by the Literary Editor, Rich- ard V. Thomson, John W. Powell, Drummond Gibson, John Crippen, Mar- vin Parkhurst, and Carl Sherred. We feel that this book is a credit to Irving School. However, we, the Board, attribute its entire success to Mr. H. S. Jackson, Faculty Ad- visor. Since the year 1922, when Mr. Jackson instituted the Sketch Book, it has steadily improved due to his tireless efforts for its betterment. The Sketch Book Board wishes to extend its best wishes to the Board of 1928 for a successful issue. A 1 W Ii Page one hundred seventeen

To become a member of this club one must be awarded the varsity I, earned either in football, basketball, baseball, tennis, or track. This organization has a very definite purpose, that of bringing to- gether the clean-minded, able-bodied athletes so that they may serve as examples to the rest of the school. The club is truly a representative of the spirit of Irving School. An organization of this type tends to make those Who fail to report to practice for our various teams get after them- selves and Work harder and strive for a membership to the club.
