Fortunate events and circumstances arrive quietly. So it was when Don hit Tarrytown this fall. His quiet, nonchalant manner, together with a pleasing personality soon carried him into every circle. A worker both in studies and play, he soon was attracting the atten- tion of masters and coaches. Masters soon realized that he was able and willing to learn. He possessed that ability of being able to mix play with Work and do it successfully. As the snow melts and spring once more makes its appearance, we will watch with high expectations the work of this man on the baseball diamond and cinder track. Donald is headed for Williams. Go to it Don, you have a mighty good start and we are all with you. -A 1: 't' it xl , -..' Qtgx. in ,, o ..f : , 1' ' Page sixty-five

fly e ....IsYo11iQ..-.S1.sET9s1H9914 JP at President Vice-President Junior Class History The fifth form this year has kept well up with the standard set by the last year's class on entering the upper school. The class is slightly larger than last year, numbering twenty-one boys in all. These boys, in- dizidually, and as a class, have contributed much to the activities of the sc ool. In athletics the class has a good record. Avignone and Foley were in- valuable to the varsity football team and the former has been elected Captain of the coming year's eleven. The honor of Manager of the foot- ball team of next year goes to another fifth former, Landis. Sanchez and Ruth were good men on both the basketball and football teams and they have excellent chances for the teams of 1927-28. The prospects of the class this year in baseball, track and tennis are even better than in previous years. The fifth form does not play all the time, thus a Word for scholar- ship. A number of fifth formers have added their names to the list on the Honor Roll and our President, Foley, bids fair to take first honors for the year. , In the lesser activities of school life several fifth formers took a prom- inent part. Abbott and Clifton aided the orchestra and other members of the class have become prominent on the Executive Board of the Athlet- ic Association. The Aqueduct Squad has also claimed a few fifth for- mers as members. This class has continued in the same enviable Way in which it start- ed its career in the Upper School and we are sure it will be one of the best classes in the history of the school when its members are graduated in 1928.
