Al- though We have not space enough to mention all its members, we feel that We must devote some time to the heads of the various schools and de- partments. The Headmaster of the Upper School, Mr. Harrison Prindle, has handled the remarkably complex job of administrating the Upper School. teaching all its history classes, and coaching Varsity Soccer and Base- ball. Mr. Dwight M. Collins, Head- master of the Middle School has demonstrated a similar versatility by, in addition to his administrative duties, teaching seventh- and eighth- grade English and coaching Middle School basketball and Varsity Tennis. Although the Headmaster of the Lower School, Mr. Clyde Wilson was ill for a large part of the past year, during which interval he was ably substituted for by Mr. William Trip- lett, he ably reassumed the responsi- bilities of his position upon his re- cuperation. Mr. Triplett, in his capac- ity as Assistant Headmaster of the entire school, has also accomplished the feat of getting this year's seniors past the College Boards and into col- lege. And, of course, there is the man who has had the difficult task of co- ordinating the various parts of the school into one smoothly functioning organization, our Headmaster, Mr. Paul Banfield. ln the field of sports, Mr. lames Curran, who also coached Varsity Football, has served as our Athletic Director. He has been ably assisted by Mr. William Fowler. The mem- bers of the office staff, the nurse, the dietitian, and the librarian, all of whom have much to do with the effi- ciency with which the school is run, also deserve mention. In the office, Mrs. Cady, Miss Havener, and Mrs. Rietzke have all done excellent jobs. Mrs. Bain has served faithfully in her thankless position as chief mender of all ills, and, our own petty com- plaints notwithstanding, we are sin- cerely indebted to Miss Prosser for the fine job she has done as dietitian. Finally, we owe a vote of thanks to Mrs. Bates, our librarian of long standing, and to Mrs. Ahlberg, who filled in while Mrs. Bates was pre- senting our bespectacled Fifth-Grade teacher with a baby daughter.

FATHERS DAY AT LANDON . a CLASSES 4 AS OTHERS SEE US SIXTH FORM HISTORY From a group standpoint, this year's graduating class has been to- gether for quite some time. Dick Iohnson, Win Faulkner, and Lew Rawlings entered Landon in the Lower School. Most of the present class stems from Middle School days, when we acquired such stalwarts as Bill Earnest, Mickey Clark, Mike Kennedy, and Iohn Brawner. In our first year of high school we had quite I. Brawner M. Clark a large class, but as the years rolled by we became depleted in number. We did, however, have several addi- tions to our class in the fourth and fifth form years, when such person- ages as Otto Ottman, Chris Slonaker, and Ierry Nicholl joined our ranks. Ogle Warfield joined us thiis year to bring the class population up to ninteen. Steve Coy took over the position of President of the class in the fourth S. Coy D. Dudley M. Duffy W. Earnest W. Faulkner K. Fernandez R. Iohnson form and continued to guide us through our fifth form year, at the end of which he handed the job over to Lew Rawlings. In our sixth form year, we have elected lim Miller and Don Dudley to the posts of Vice President and Secretary-Treasurer, respectively. In the extra-curricular field, our form has been very active in the Press and Dramatic Clubs: in ath- letics, we have managed to hold our own, as was illustrated by the winter intra-murals, in which We annexed the soccer and basketball crowns. We of the sixth form realize that ours has not been one of the stronger classes to graduate from Landon, but we feel we may honestly say that we have done our best to overcome our weaknesses and tried our hardest to live up to the standards of Landon School. And so, with best wishes to all of Landon for the coming years, we remain respectfully yours, The Sixth Form of 1949 S. Linthicum D. Mashbir M. Kennedy B. McCatfree I. Miller M. Nicholl H- Hai M.

LOWER SCHOOL CHORUS Without a doubt, the Lower School Chorus is the most popular and well known of the Lower School clubs. The main events, for which they con- tinually practice, are the Christmas and Spring recitals. Last year the Chorus was broadcast over the radio and gave a thrilling recital. THE NATURE CLUB The primary objective of the Lower School Nature Club is to teach its members how to recognize and ap- preciate nature's plants, insects, and animals. These boys are very often seen touring the campus with their instructor showing them nature's gifts. 69 BLOCK PRINTING CLUB Throughout the year, the members of the Lower School Block Printing Club make forms for printing greet- ing cards. These hand-carved dies are used for printing the attractive cards which the boys send to their friends and relatives. SHOP CLUB The boys of the Shop Club are primarily interested in learning some of the skills helpful in Woodcraft. To fullfill this desire, the boys are per- mitted to make anything from tie- racks to toy wooden guns. AVIATION CLUB Although the construction of model airplanes is the primary objective of the Aviation Club, many of the fun- damentals of aeronautics are re- vealed to the boys so that they can understand more thoroughly the work that they are doing. THE GUIMPE CLUB The Guimpe lanyards, watch fobs, and bracelets frequently seen adorning the Lower School boys are products of the new Guimpe Club.

These adornments that the boys are wear- ing can be accredited to the boys' own ingenuity, as they made them themselves. THE TIN CAN CLUB The Lower School Tin Can Club has adopted a hobby that was de- veloped during the last war, and that is the construction of useful articles made from tin cans. Using only tin snips, cans and solder, the members of this club do very fine work. THE MANUSCRIPT CLUB Since 1939, certain boys of the Lower School Manuscript Club have been publishing the Lower School's paper. These papers are sold and the money is given periodically to various school funds. THE PAPER CRAFTS CLUB The attractive maps that the reader has undoubtedly seen in the Lower School classrooms were made by the Paper Crafts Club members. Their activities cover a greater field than mere map-making: they also make paper-mache masks and many kinds of puppets. TOY ORCHESTRA The Percussion Instrument Club is a group of boys, under the guidance of Mr. Briggs, who play drums, tri- angles, tom-toms, and other percus- sion instruments to the tune of re- cordings. ART CLUB The Art Club, under the direction ot Mrs. Georgia, is one of Landon's oldest groups. It was established to give boys with artistic ability an opportunity to further develop their skills. An exhibit of the best work is held in Iune. PAPER CRAFTS Sitting: Dan Austin, Dick Spire. Phillip Keller, Robin Hoar, Robert Gifford, Don Collins, Dick Alexander.

The squad, coached by Mr. MacEwan, played to a l-1 tie with St. Albans B team, and held Episco- pal's varsity to a l-l deadlock. George Kriner and Lonny Bliss, who each made a goal, Lee Lovett, the goalie, and Dick Beatty deserve credit for holding the team together and leading the attack against heavier, more experienced opposition. The Iunior Varsity tennis and baseball teams have not played any games as of the time of the Writing of this article, but the coaches give an optimistic outlook of the season to come. I. V. tennis is coached by Mr. Col- lins, who also coaches the Varsity. Barring any upsets, the team should be made up by Dick Beatty, Dick Barnett, Victor Block, Ken Claunch, Don Ellicot, Courtney French, Walt Perkins and Sid Prince. Several matches have already been sched- uled, and Coach Collins is looking forward to a very successful season. Mr. Ahlberg, coach of the Iunior Varsity baseball team, says that the squad will be built around Dick Beers, Ted Bledsoe, Ken Claunch, Charles Griffin, Peter Iunghans and Dan Slowe. Four games have already been scheduled and Mr. Ahlberg is working on several more. Iunior Varsity sports are taking a more and more prominent place in the athletic program at Landon, and should result in stronger Varsity teams in the future.
