WARFIELD Adve tls ng Manage s SENIOR CLASS MILITARY ACADEMY DEDIC TIO The Senior Class of l950 is proud to co- dedicate its yearbook to Capt. Holt, a fine 'friend and guardian. All of us who have known him are aware that he has been much more than a faculty oH'icer-he has been our friend. His vast knowledge of mathematics has not only been successfully endowed to us in class, but also during much of his off-duty time. He has always been willing to direct his energies toward making Massanutten a better school. and making its students better citizens. Capt. Whllter ll. Holt explains Geometry to Cadet Handshaw. Captain Oiliourltc is .1 reluctant subject for the photographer. Sharing with Capt. Holt the distinction of being dedicatee of this volume is Capt. O'Rourke. The sun does not always rise in Ireland, but after seeing the smile of this genial, salty man, our riding master. we can overlook the geographical inaccuracy of this statement. Many happy days we have spent away from campus on horseback, taking in' structions from this gentleman who is patient and understanding. He has ma.le our ex- cursions to the school farm and subsequently to the trails of the Massanutteri Range mo- ments of hig'i excitement and pleasure. 4 HISTORY HE WORD MASSANUTTEN is rather diliicult for a great many people to under- stand, for it is not what you would call a common word. It is, in fact, unique. It is of Indian origin and is supposed to mean Great Mountain, although it has received different deh- nitions by historians. This name has been applied for many years to the fifty-mile range of mountains which splits the Shenandoah Valley from Strasburg to Harrisonburg into two sections. It is a beauti- ful range of mountains, towering in some places over two thousand feet above sea level. Some geologists say it is a slip from the Appalachians on the west boundary of the Shenandoah Valley. Be that as it may, the word MASSANUTTEN is very well-known in Virginia and when the founders of our school selected this name, they gave it a distinctive character. Some schools are named after the names of the towns in which they are locatedg others take the names of bene- factors and distinguished people. Suffice to say that in the half-century that Massanutten has been operating, the name has become well-known throughout the land, through many channels of publicity and, by virtue of the songs and cheers and sentiments attached to the name, it is very dear to the alumni and friends of the school. The village pastors of the Shenandoah Valley, after discussing the matter at church meetings for many years, made known their wishes to establish an institution of learning. In 1898 they bought the property belonging to former Senator Riddle- berger on the south,side of Woodstock. This con- sisted of a spacious colonial house surrounded by a grove of young Norway maples. The house had been erected in 1878 and the trees planted soon afterwards. Massanutten is the product not only of the de- sire of the membership of the Reformed Church in the surrounding area, but was the dream of a few men who found leadership in the Rev. J. Silor Garrison, who, at the present time, lives in retire- ment in the neighboring town of Harrisonburg. Articles of incorporation were granted and a Board of Trustees was authorized by judge Thomas W. Harrison in 1899. Rev. -I. B. Stonesifer, a pastor, was designated to solicit funds for the remodeling of the building and the purchase of equipment to open what was to be known as a co- educational school. At that time there were very few high schools in the Shenandoah Valley. Private schools held sway, but even these were more modest than they are today. The church membership was quite elated over the idea of a school and supported the project enthusiastically. The Riddleberger building was remodeled to comprehend all the needs of a small school. Thus. Massanutten started on her career much as a young man with a knap- sack slung across his shoulder would start on a journey to make his fortune. For fourteen years the school was conducted as a co-educational school and the boys and girls came mostly from the Shenandoah Valley. Mr. Garrison presided as Head Master for four years, and then retired because of ill health. He was followed by the Rev. R. R. jones, who served for two years. The tuition charge was very low and it was difficult to finance the school. Thus the question arose whether or not the school should be continued. lt was then that Dr. Benchoff was in- vited to take charge of the school in the capacity of Head Master. After visiting Woodstock, he was impressed with the beautiful location and the possibilities of building a preparatory school. He accepted the call and has been Head Master of the school he has built from that first single build- ing since the year 1905. At first, Dr. Benchoff had in mind the building of a school for one hundred boarding students. After World War I he revised his program, basing his decision upon his experience and the inflation that followed that period. Having made a careful study of the situation during his administration, he set his goal at two hundred boys as a safe num- ber which can be controlled and directed ideally in a program of Christian education and leadership. A properly written history of Massanutten would read like an epic. During these years it has been the task of the Head Master not only to find funds for buildings, but to End students, set standards, direct activities, and comprehend all of the problems that naturally go with an expanding institution. Lantz Hall was erected in 1909, Sperry Hall in 1916, the Virginia Lee Harrison Gymnasium in 1924, the annex to Lantz Hall, equally as large as Lantz Hall itself, in 1927, and the J. Thomas Har- rison Swimming Pool in 1928. Each of these buildings is exceptionally well-constructed. From the beginning there was a plan and, step by step, that plan is being transferred from paper to reality. From an original boarding school of a dozen or so boys and girls it has grown to an enrollment of approximately one hundred and fifty boarding students and fifteen day students, This does not seem remarkable in itself unless you know the story, which has shown a steady increase of en- rollment varying downward only very slightly in bad years, but always marching upward toward that final goal. 1 The original campus of five acres has grown nearly six times that much. It has been landscaped and athletic fields, parade fields, and other land have been donated or purchased. Shrubbery and flowers have been planted and the ivy-covered walls proclaim the beauty and solemn reticence of the buildings. More than sufficient land has been purchased to take care of the future, and all of the activities that would be required in the set-up for a two hundred boy school have been provided for. Even the central heating plant was installed sufficiently large to take care of the proposed new building, which will complete the picture. Up to this time the task has been that of pioneer- ing, and now Massanutten faces a new era. Dr. Benchoff has long had it in mind to develop a camp in the Massanutten mountains or along the Shenandoah River somewhere, which would serve as a retreat for camping expeditions. Herein lies another interesting story in which one of the famous seven river bends of the Shenandoah River was obtained through gift and purchase. We have watched the growth of Camp Lupton now for fifteen years as a summer camp for the younger boys, and are as proud of its growth as we are of the Academy. This camp carries out the idea of outdoor life and recreation, and all who see it are delighted with the equipment and the environ- ment. It also has splendid possibilities and we are proudly watching its growth. This, in brief, is the story of Massanutten. A good elder had left a thousand dollars to the village pastors which was their sole asset when they decided to purchase the Riddleberger property for use as a school. That gift has been matched by many others, some larger, some smaller. This is a witness of the outstanding devotion of the alumni. It has built one building after another, leaving us no doubt as to the reaching of the ulti- mate goal of another building and a two hundred boy school. Other sections and paragraphs in this book speak of our achievements. Many people have wondered why we have risen to such a high posi- tion in the secondary field of education, with graduates having attended and attending a great part of Americas colleges and universities and with a record that is enviable. Herein lies the answer. Within this book is a day-by-day record of our daily preparation. Where else can be found a better testimonial to the great spirit which has caught us in its grasp and is building us and preparing us for the road ahead-the Spirit of Massanutten. ,xx Q7 A X , K A gk: 'Q .

MCLAWHORN, A.B. A,r,ri,ffa1zf Commamlzmt of Cadets English Among the heads of the faculty is this gentle- man who with all his power is striving to see that every cadet who leaves this school shall go out into the world to further his education. It is through men of his personality and character that our school has become what it is today. ROBERT J. BENCHOF F A.B., LL.B. Arrirtant H eadmurler We owe Captain McLawhorn more than we can express' in words. Although his schedule is filled to capacity, he always finds time for a cheerful word of encouragement which helps to brighten dull mornings. To a brilliant scholar and a perfect gentleman, we wish to express a word of thanks for his constant work in the preparation of our minds for higher education. GUY A. BENCHOFF Major, R. O. T. C. Q C ommandant of C udeti' To this man goes the responsibility for seeing that we, the Cadets of M. M. A., are at our best at all times. Although he may seem to be hard- boiled, he is a very jovial gentleman. He has given up many good hours of sleep to prepare a full day's schedule for us. Whatever free time he has is usually given to making a better corps. Year after year he has worked to make one good Glee Club after another, and he always succeeds. George l, Shelley A.ll., A.M, IJFLIII uf lfilrlllli' A talented, devoted faculty graces the Massa- nutten scene. So much has been written in prior yearbooks about the admirable qualities of said faculty, that we hesitate to proceed along a similar path, lest we be accused of triteness and lack of originality. But we find it unavoidable. We like these men and women who share our lives with us. We re- spect their knowledge and wisdom-we appreciate their unselfish interest in our problems, and we do have problems. The realization has crept upon us THE FACULTY l l james C. Ratcliife Frank S.

Theirs is no easy job, for some one hundred and forty boys of all ages require the abilities of no average man. To them goes the credit for making this school the smooth-operating and well-disciplined institu- tion that it is. To them, the men and women of the faculty, go our profound appreciation for the faith they have given us, and for the good habits we have formed and the knowledge we have gained that we will carry with us throughout our lives. tiard lf. lfllis Leroy li.

JUNIOR SCHOOL UTH AMERICA South America-namely, Venezuela-is well represented in the Cadet Corps with an average of twenty-five Spanish-speaking Ambassadors attend- ing Massanutten each year. They are active ath- letically, specializing in soccer and swimming, and are true sportsmen. Academically they are out- standing, being constant honor roll repeaters. Unfamiliarity with our language and our con- fusion with theirs are initial obstacles that they quickly overcome by going to work and learning the intricacies of English. The interchange of North and South American cultural patterns is a most practical and tangible demonstration of the solidarity of the hemisphere. Cadets de Castro, Charr, Orta, Vanderdys, Cabrera, Cova, Vanderdys, Wallis, and Riquezes confer with ex-M.M.A.-er Lacau.

Lantz Std Hoot appears to supply the interest for l9-494950. Here we have a con- glometation of characters from all over the country, with a liberal sprinkling of South Americans. You can surmise the results when Notth and South rehghr the Civil W11r. From the conversa- tions we can conclude that North Carolina is the best state in the Union, next to Virginia, Pennsyl- vania, New York, Ohio, and Michigan. However, down on the second floor someone tries to con- vince us that nothing can compare with tl1e glories of Wfyoming, and he does a good job, too! Let us visit the privileged class -that is. the boys who live in the outside barracks. All we hear is how nice the life on the outside is. But how they gripe when they have to walk through adverse elements for formations and mess! How envious they are, knowing that when the bugle blows they must scurty for school, but the denizens of Lantz and Sperry Hall can reach formations with a minimum of effort. If it is music you wish, just stand in the halls of any of tl1e barracks when CQ. is not in effect, Hillbillies, be-boppets, ctooners, and even musi- cians join in the strange medley of sounds. 'illocu Gooding must have something on his mind. 'iXVoody Warfield seems to he studying. ls that possible? 'Wlopey l,ol11'l1 -f-slirix not down there' 47 X X Q I is QS I5 ,E M , -If 1-L.

COMM SSIO ED OFFICER Every school year at Massanutten Academy there are a picked group of cadets who are given com- missioned ranks and placed in spots where they may be leaders of other cadets at school. This year, as every other year, we have picked a group of these cadets who are proving to be of great value to making our corps a corps of perfection in drill, military affairs, and courtesy. These officers are proving themselves to be very outstanding, and we hope that in future years the Massanutten cadets will be placed in the hands of more such capable leaders. Cadet Major John P. Fernandez CADFT STAFF H., MfSgt. Riqucvcx, Capt. Nash. CADET STAFF The old axiom which states that the cream of the crop usually ends up in the Cadet Staff certainly holds true this year. Such men as Major Fernandez, lst Lt, Gordon, Captain Lander, Captain Nash, and Master Sgt. Riquizes comprised this sterling group. COLOR GUARD Sgt. Ott commanded the Color Guard, assisting was Cpl. W. Vanderdys. Privates Brown and Shaffer were the other members who throughout the year hoisted and lowered the Hag in sun, rain, and snow. The parades came, and the Color Guard led the Battalion with their precision military steps. The Guard represented the Academy in the Apple Blossom Festival with fine elan and manner. This unit compared favorably with any previous Guard in recent memory. COLOR GUARD l'vl. Sliaflicr. Sgt. Ott, Cpl. Vanderdys, XV., Pvt. Brown, On the shoulders of these chosen few, in coordina- tion with Major Christenson, rested the task of leadership and administration of the Battalion. They attacked their jobs wholeheartedly and enacted them with loyalty, fairness, and obedience. lst l.t. Gordon, ll., Major Fcrnanduv, Capt. Lander. Band Playing Ret rcat THE BAN CAPTAIN ALLEN C.

C. Thew, Pennsylvania Noel, North Carolina End Fullbaclt Quurlerbaclt Tufklc Under the careful scrutiny and skilled tutelage of Coach Richard F. C Dick j Ellis, the Massa- nutten gridders provided many thrills for followers of football this season. The Purple Dragons came out on top of an arduous eight-game schedule. The lirst decision was over Richmond's Bene- dictine High School, with the team working sur- prisingly smoothly in its initial game under the new coach. Randolph-Macon, 19-O, and Charlotte Hall, 40-O, were next to succumb to Massanutten power, M. M. A., however, fell before Mercersburg Academy, 14-7, in a game which saw the winners completely outplayed for the majority of the game. Weak pass defense resulted in both Mercersburg scores. Woodbury Forest fell, 31-19, in a game whose score was deceptively close. Staunton furnished the opposition for the annual Homecoming game, and this proved to be the thriller of the season. The play was open, the running spectacular, and the defensive play brilliant. When Staunton failed in a conversion attempt, a 13-15 tie resulted. M. M. A. proved unable to cope with a superb Duquesne University Freshman team, losing 19-0. The trip to Pennsylvania was an old-home week for many of the Massanutten players. On Thanksgiv- ing Day the weary Dragons lost to a supercharged Augusta outht, 34-7. Line play was outstanding throughout the schedule, as was the running attack. Pass defense and pass offense were constant sources of concern to Coach Ellis. I0 VAR ITY THLETICS john Freeman, jack Handshaw, Bob Carter, Nick Lizza, jim Wallzlce, and Doug Gordon were veterans who formed the nucleus of the l949 .lunior Varsity Football squad which won two of four games. Wins were registered over Randolph- Macon AI. Vfs, I3-0, and Wfarren County High AI. Vfs, 20-0. Randolph-Macon won a return game, 21-12, and in a thrilling Armistice Day battle with the J. V.'s of Staunton, the Xllfoodstock elever succumbed, I4-15. Freeman, Lizza, Radigan, and Carter carriec out most of the backlield assignment, abetted by Zaucha and Roughen, On the line, Handshaw Wtillatce, Ritenour, Angeloh, Gordon, D., Eliades Farrell, Schneider, Brown, Philhower, Bowman Scheirer, McCormick, Pinto, and Spiggle saw mucl' action. lfmnl Rau'-' Zaucha. l.i1'z.i, Angcloh, Freeman, Radigau, Hanshaw, Carter.

The team was fortunate to be able to draw from the faculty an ex-professional, Capt. Banning, for the coaching duties. He demon- strated that he is an effective coach. Training started late in September, putting the squad in top shape for its seasons opener with Mercersburg. Massanutten lost, 3-1, in a game marked by superior playg but our boys, predom- inantly South Americans, could not quite breach the gap. The defensive work in the Woodbury Forest game was comparable to that of a college match. Both sides were satisfied to share a 2-2 tie. Wasli- ington and Lee University Freshmen were a bit too rugged for the Banning-coached team which lost a hard-fought decision, 3-1. Although no vic- tories could be boasted this year, optimism runs high for next year's prospects. Fmul Rouw' Lander, M., Chart, Lavie, Lippo.

Coach Glunt, Sekanovich, Roughcn. R., Hcpner, Anderson, Lyon CManagerl. Varsity Basketball Coach Leroy Glunt had eight returning veterans from last year's squad and fifteen newcomers from which to select an effective combination. Prom- inent of the new faces were -Ioe Hassett, Armand Bat-astini, Danny Sekanovich, jack Radigan, and Sam Hepner. Returning first-stringers were .lack Fernandez, captain and a regular for the fourth straight year, Dick Roughen, and Gerry Anderson. Lack of height was a handicap which plagued Coach Glunt and his men all season, particularly after the loss of Sekanovich. In this era of sky- scraping ball hawks, M. M. A. was definitely cur- tailed in its offensive and defensive effectiveness by the absence of comparatively tall men. Never- theless, notable victories were scored over the Fairchild Packets, Randolph-Macon Ctwicel, Augusta, and Mercersburg, the last being a precedent-shattering win. A Fork Union, Fairchild, and Mercersburg re- mained to be played. J M 5 l 50 58 53 45 56 69 49 50 47 57 5l THE BASKETBALL SEASON M.

JUNIOR SCHOOL ATHLETICS t The Junior School football squad, coached by Cadet joseph Hassett, found as candidates for the team Cadets Bond, Hammack, M. Gordon, Hop- wood, Miller, Aliotti, Battagline, A., Reed, D., jones, Marquis, Cova, and Karam, all of whom had a lot of fun practicing daily during the fall weeks on the lower athletic field. Three games were played, in two of which the Mighty Mites came out on the short end of the score. Their first taste of gridiron warfare, how- ever, resulted in a Homecoming victory over Strasburg Midgets by a 6-O score. The losses were to R.-M. A. Juniors, 6-26 and 0-26. Captained by Gordon, M., and directed by Coach Ellis, the junior School basketball team has played four games so far this year, losing thrice to the Woodstock Juniors and once to Edinburg. Succes- sive improvement in each was noticeable, however, and the play of Hanlon and Gordon was par- ticularly good. One game remained to be played with Longfellow junior High School of Wash- ington. SWIMMING If anyone held doubts about the value of rigor- ous training, lengthy drill, and practice to success- ful winning swimming teams, then they should be dispelled by the example the Massanutten swim- mers and divers have set. Afternoon and night practice, with particular emphasis on the correc- tion of faults, enabled good tankmen to excel in victories over Augusta and Randolph-Macon, with only a loss to the championship Staunton swimmers marring the record. Coach Ellis took his team to the invitational meet at Church Hill, North Carolina, where Massanutten finished fifth among thirteen teams competing.

RIDING Riding on the school's large farm is a favorite recreational pastime of the cadets. Fine, spirited thoroughbreds in quantity are available for the many hoys who avail themselves of this excellent opportunity for exercise and relaxation. Captain O'Rourke supervises all riding and instructs in the proper methods of horsemanship. Cadets Bayley, Sheppard, Warneld, and Boettiger assist Captain O'Rourke in the care and training of the horses. These boys are adept horsemen in their own right. Every Sunday afternoon a large contingent of cadets trails along the banks of the Shenandoah River, and wends its way along the winding trails of the Massanutten Mountains. ci.IlYl.lllI fYRlY,ll'liC astridt- .1 lin: mount.

It was the season for basketball, and a great number of boys were getting in some early practice. After the varsity squad had been selected, the intramural teams began to take form. Each company and the Cadet Staff were represented by teams. The schedule was divided into two sec- tions, with the winners of each meeting for the intramural championship. The Staff won the first half with a seven won, one lost record. The Staff's Shaffer graduated to the varsity, however, and the second half promised to show closer competition. A Company was second with 6-2, followed by C, 5-5, 2-6, and The Band, also with a 2-6 record. The value of intramural competition cannot be overestimated, because it gives all boys a chance to participate. For boys who love athletics and cannot make the varsity, and they are a majority, it affords them exercise and competition that they ordinarily would not get. Spirit runs high in these games, and they are eagerly anticipated. One would never dream that the opponents in this league were schoolmates, but after the dust has cleared away and the floor has been mopped up, all are as good friends as ever, or, probably better. A similar program is offered in the spring when softball games are daily affairs. CA PUS LIFE Study hall 'ivolunlcerwl' clean the campus. All right Hill, look to the frontl Surprise!

ITIES st.L WW Ii Ml, J' ' I 'WWEQ DJUTANT T FF Even if nothing notable in a journalistic sense has been achieved by the publication of this book, an astounding number of sleeping hours were lost by staff members who struggled to meet an ever-encroaching deadline. Laboring resourcefully and valiantly, Gordon Hastings and Wfoody War- field solicited advertising and patrons. Bill Acker- man, Nick Lizza, Tom Gooding, Al Lyon, Dick Roughen, and Fred Nash, while not members of the staff, gave generously of their time, and it was needed badly. Jim Askenase and Keith Bayley were indispensable for their photographic work. Editors Gerry Anderson. Dick Schafer, Bill Aaron- son, and Editor-in-chief Doug Gordon collaborated with Captain Donaldson and Mr. Neill Watson of Campus Publishing in producing the l950 Adjutant. Because the staff worked under con- tinuous pressure in producing copy and pictures for this yearbook, valuable experience in journal- ism was gained. The spirit of mutual cooperation was never lost. Senior portraits and most group pictures were made by Williain Garber, of Mt. Jackson, Virginia. Editor-in-Chief . . . . . .Lt. Douglas Gordon Military Editor .......... Capt.

GLEE The school and community were not to be without an outstanding choral group this year. Tryouts were held early in the fall, and some twenty-five boys were selected for their vocal talent. Major Benchoff soon had the group inte- grated into a precision unit, thus providing the basis for an interesting and profitable experience for participants and audiences. The Clubs first concert was given during the Military Ball week-end. Listeners were enthralled. Later, concerts were given at Station WSVA, Fox- croft Girls' School in Fairfax, Virginia, Station WINC in Winchester, and Wzirrenton County Girls' School, Virginia. Though always pressed for time, the club presented uniformly satisfying pro- grams, exhibiting a fine, cooperative spirit and sensitive understanding of music. Quisenberry and Gutbrodt operate the P. A. system to supply canned musicu to the gym. CL Major Benchoff has been directing choirs at M. M. A. for over twenty-five years, but he has lost none of his zest and patience for the job. He would be the last one to accept plaudits for his work, but the choir requested specifically that he be thanked publicly for his work with them. 1 ' L 5.

BAN For the second year Mrs. Donaldson had a large enrollment in her evening dancing classes, in which she taught beginners the fundamental ballroom steps, and the advanced students the more compli- cated dances. The general improvement of the quality of ballroom dancing was much in evidence during the large dances in February and May. DEBATE WEEK E D Although the Military Ball climaxes Debate Week End, no one event of this colorful time can be said to outranlc any other. The Jefferson and Poe Literary Societies engaged in their forty-fifth con- secutive debate this year. with the jeljts sweeping virtually all phases of the debating and oratory. Only Cadet Farrell, Poe, who was judged the out- standing debator, managed to prevent a clean sweep. Major Benchoff and the Glee Club pres sented a concert Saturday morning, the Swimming team prevailed against Augusta in the afternoon, the Band provided music after this, and the eve- ning brought the Military Ball, of course.
