DEAR MERCERSBURG SENIoRs: When you read this letter it will be on the occasion of your Commencement. Please accept through me the congratulations of each Mercersburg Alumnus. We, the graduates and former students of that Academy, can more feelingly and more under- standingly congratulate you than any other of your well-wishers. We joy with you in the fulfilment of a dream, we know your pride in having attained the coveted diploma from Old Mercersburg, we thrill with you in the happiness that comes to a boy who wears the crown of victory laid upon his head by the strong hands of a Mercers- burg Headmaster, but we commiserate with you that your days as a student at the Academy have come to an end. Only with the passing of time will you fully realize this deprivation. Happily the gates of the campus are not closed, but on the contrary the arms of the School are held open to you and will always bid you Welcome You will wish more as you grow older to drink there of the fountain of youth. That fountain will ever bubble refreshingly and restoratively. Its water will cool your tired brow and inspire your weary mind. With the responsibilities, anxieties and fatiguing forces of age, you will truly thirst for its sparkling waters of rejuvenation. Today you are full of the exuberance of youth. The world is viewed as a beautiful wilderness to conquer. The future is yours. It is well that you have the courage and optimism to conquer the unknown. Do not let the pessimism of age deter you. Go forth to master that by which we of an older day have been defeated. Do not be dis- couraged by the failures of your elders. Do not live in the yesterdays but live in the dawn of tomorrow. Don't talk of what you are going to do. Do it. Keep your faith in yourself, in your country, and in the Master of Mankind. Go forth to battle singing as Crusaders: Ready to go, ready to wait, Ready a gap to fill, Ready for service small or great, Ready to do His will. and believe with Emerson that Self-mastery is the essence of heroism. Remember, fellows, that in the battle of life we cannot hire a. substitute. Upon the assumption of the Mercersburg Alumnus status, you accept certain obli- gations: loyalty and devotion to your Alma Mater, nurturement of her traditions, her ideals, her precepts, service to her in word and deed and prayer. Consecrate a part of your life to her development. By making it a practice as you go out from her to think of her every day, you will subconsciously as well as consciously materially serve her. The opportunities for service to one's Alma Mater are limitless. Each of you will find some distinctive form in which to express his interested devotion. Through the Alumni Association you will experience important opportunities for usefulness. Today you can commence coming in under her portals through new students whom you direct into her gates. Boys, America needs you right at this very hour-one of the most serious and threatening in her history. Do have faith in her foundations, stand on her traditional bulwarks, revere the stable forces of government that have made her the Nation among nations, keep her respected and respectable, purge her of crime and corruption, make her citizens self-reliant that they, as the component elements of the nation, may assure that this nation will stand and, having stood, face the future unafraid. Dependency makes for timidity and weakens moral fibre. Consecrate your lives to good citizenship. Service to country begins in one's own soul and is expressed in one's work for com- munity, state, and nation. What our country needs most today is individual adherence to religious teachings and principles. Sons of Mercersburg, march forward onto the broad highways of life, determined to crusade for the right by living aright yourselves. Faithfully yours, a....e.f?fa ,'-U .

PRATT L. TOBEY Adviser to thc SENIOR CLASS The Karux, 1935 Forty-Six Valeclictory to the Class of 1935 DEAR FELLOWS: ta It is an inerasable part of your history that you all have lived the early years of your young manhood in a time of almost unprecedented confusion, shadow, discourage- ment and wide-spread desperate need across the face of the earth. While you have realized that a large part of the responsibility for this condition, rests upon those who caused a war and botched its settlement, the fundamental difficulties have been due to a lack of morale. By morale you have learned in classroom and- on playingfield, in dormitory and on campus, to understand those qualities-in magical and mighty blend- ing-of courage, unsellishness, team play and dedication of the individual to the group- gain which make a great erprit-de-rorpr. Where men hurry to be rich, looking for short cuts that are not constructive but merely clever, where men wish to benefit for them- selves by sharp manipulation of the results of others' labors, you have simply revealed in the large what every student is tempted to do in the small. The boy who has learned the lesson of Mercersburg knows that the reward of a thing well done is to have done it, that the achievements that are worth having come after long and honest effort, that one of the greatest boons a person can wish for himself is a job that makes him try and requires honest performance. I beg of you, as you go on into college and into life, to keep this great principle regnant in your life. Do the day's work and do it well. Accept your place and fill it. Be dependable. Be responsible. Be where people expect to find you and be what people hope to find you, especially be what those who love you best pray that you may become. It is not what man does that exalts him but what man would do. ln the long run men are going to respect you and remember you, not for what you had or knew or even did, but for the atmosphere, the attitude, the altitude, the aspiration of your life. You can change the climate of the place in which you live and you can do it only by the rain and the sunshine which come out of your own living. In other words, you can never find a better rule for an honorable and happy life than the motto of your old school, Clean Life, Hard Work, Fair Play.

Never again will they enjoy the beau- bg tifully intimate atmosphere that is so characteristic of Mercersburg. Never again will they be recipients of the same kindly, helpful guidance that is so imperative to the moulding of the character of the man of tomorrow. The magnitude and importance of this step in life cannot possibly be stressed too greatly. Theirs is the challenge, and theirs is the answering call! They must not fail. ' Departure stirs the soul of every Senior with immeasurable regret, but this is certainly not caused by a reflection over the record of the Class. Both scholastically and athletically the Seniors have a record which will stand out through the years as one of exceptional brilliance and merit. A Senior of the Class of 1935 can indeed be proud of its achievements. Many of the positions of honor and influence are held by Seniors. This is only natural, since they are more mature and perhaps more capable than the underclassmen. When they leave, it is the duty and privilege of those who follow to take their places. A summation of all the hopes and wishes of the Seniors to those who follow may perhaps be best expressed in these two words, Carry on! JOHN G.

LTHOUGH a very quiet boy, Dicks cheerful personality has 55:6 won him a host of friends during 'fr his stay at Mercersburg. While he has been here only a year, he has, by virtue of hard work, gained an enviable scholastic standing in his class. Dick's interests as well as his natural talents indicate a career in medicine is in store for him. VC'e are all confident that he will do credit to Mercersburg while at Haverford.

From his four years here we are sure he will have many happy memo- ries. Prominent as Marshal of the Field, and a member of many intra-mural teams, Chuck is always ready for anything. His sayings, personality, and swell sense of humor have made many events, both in and near Mercersburg, extremely in- teresting to a great number of us. We are sure that these assets will carry him well along any path he chooses to travel. We hate to see you leave us Chuck l' but we will always wish you a lot of the best. Mural Athletics.

The Upper Middler Class has presented a record of outstanding scholastic achieve- ment of which the school is proud. Apart from this, we have had a great share in the extra-curricular activities of the school. Members of our class have faithfully taken part in such organizations as The Newt, the Choir, the Stony Batter Dramatic Club, The Fifteen, The Lit, and the Glee Club. W'e have an athletic record of which we are extremely proud. Such members as Martz, Charlie Ewing, l'Tubby Franks, Boyd Hutchison, Bellis, Barr, Shobert, Costa, Chink Strohman and Ken Murphy all played varsity football. The rosters of the wrestling, track, swimming, baseball, tennis and soccer teams have all been filled with members of our class.

Before outlining our various activities, we, the Class of 1937, wish to thank all those, especially Dr. and Mrs. Edwards, and the faculty, who have helped us in so many invaluable ways, Trying our best to uphold the traditions set up by our predecessors, we have given our all in numerous extra-curricular activities, such as debating, football, track, tennis, publications, declamation, glee club, and choir. In debating we were very efficiently represented in the persons of Wfeis and McCartney, football was helped greatly by the presence of Baldwin, Barr, Estep, Franks, Hutchison, Ken Murphy, Nittoli, Roehrs, joe Snyder, Wagner, and Bob Wallace, jess Andrew, Franks, Wleis, and john White greatly aided our swimming squad, and we had Franks, Markle, and john Wfhite to represent us in the play.

It was hrst organized by Dr. Irvine in 1905 so that the teachers and executives of the school might 0 get nearer to the student body. This year the Senate has encountered a number of dithcult and puzzling situations, all of which have been capably solved. The per- sonal popularity of the Senate members, who are most representative Mercersburg boys and are engaged in all the major activities of the school, is one of the factors which makes it possible for this group to render such a creditable service, both in the interests of the school and its student body. It is diilicult to overestimate the importance of an organization, every member of which, having his own personal friends among the students. becomes the mouthpiece of all the student requests and problems. Any desires of general interest in the Academy are given serious consideration in the Senate discussions by the student members and, if worthy of being granted, are brought to the attention of the higher otiicials. The Senate celebrates this year its thirtieth anniversary. and it may well be congratu- lated on the great part it has played during this long period in the life of the Mercersburg Academy. It is only because of the manner in which these student members are chosen that such satisfaction can exist. There are in all ten student and Eve faculty members, including Dr. Edwards. Two Upper Middlers and one Lower Middler are elected by the Student Bodyg one member is chosen by the retiring Senior Classg one is elected by the Faculty members of the Senate, two by the Faculty as a wholeg one is picked by the student members of the Senate, and the final two are selected by Dr. Fdxvards.

The subject in the six meetings this year was the Romantic Poets: Wfilliam Cowper, Robert Burns, XX!illiam Vffordsworth, Lord Byron, john Keats, and Percy Bysshe bhelley. The various arguments, pro and con, regarding the ability of the poets are very interesting, and everybody feels free to express his individual opinion. The discussion in each meeting was a consideration of one famous author, and the procedure was for each member to make a contribution of some sort in addition to two comprehensive essays, one on the life of the author or authoress for discussion, and one on his works, prepared by student members. The members of the English department offer stimulating comments after those of the students, and one of the outstanding characteristics of the meetings is the informality. The liifteen ordinarily assembles in the Administration Building or the Library, but often the members are graciously entertained at the homes of the married members.

HE Student Christian Association of the School has continued its wide work, during the past year, in the same spirit which has made it long a vital factor in the life of Mercersburg. -' Membership entitles the student to the many advantages which the National organization affords, the full privileges of this great organization which finds stations in every city. The Y. M. C. A. has succeeded this year in bringing to the campus speakers of special appeal, most popular of which proved to be a series of vocational guidance discussions, led by men prominent in their respective fields. A representative group is chosen each year to carry Mercersburg's part in the annual interscholastic conferences at Buck Hill Falls and the famous Blairstown Conference. The spirit of Mercersburgs Christian Leadership, however, has found even greater vent outside the campus in the progressive accomplishment of a truly unique missionary enterprise. A large settlement of vari-colored population was discovered by students, a few years ago, to be completely neglected in regard to religious leadership or training. Through a course of some years the students have operated for these people, whose squalid homes nestle at the foot of the neighboring mountains, a church school, under the systematic training of which they have found guidance and friendship hitherto unknown. Witlm an almost incredible spirit of voluntary service, these students make their way to the school and homes of these people, bringing them an element which The Karux, 1935 One Hundred Twenty-Pour has wrought a recognizable change in the communityAa higher plane of living. At the Cove Gap church the students have led the people in a series of church enterprises: Benefit Dinners, Christmas and Easter Festivals, and more recently a thriving Boy Scout Troop has been formed, giving otherwise idle youthful minds an active interest. At the Mount Pleasant School, food baskets are distributed at various times during the year, Some thousand articles of clothing helped clothe needy people, and three hundred individuals found help and enjoyment from a work which must never be neglected. In this great enterprise Mercersburg's students have reached the zenith of Christian endeavor-Service to Humanity.

The mildness .indvperfect calm of the atmos- Lxiillgl phere., together with the clear sky and brilliant starlight, made the illusion that -ee' the picturesque Outdoor Theatre was a court in Ancient Athens quite convincing. lt was the opinion among those familiar with past Stony Batter productions that the Club achieved in this play an eHect of loveliness never before witnessed here. The actors were noteworthy not only for bringing out the comedy and irony in this story of a statue brought to life, but also, especially in the serious roles, for' the profound feeling which they poured into the beautiful poetic passages, The result seemed it fulnlment of attributes classically Greek, passionate but lofty and clearly outlined. The incidental music in this production was Dre! liyfmli for four trombones: Azzdizfzfe, l'r1m Atltzgiu, and Pom Snflwzzrlo, by Ludwig van Beethoven. lt was under the direction of Lewis Niven and performed by Merit Wfilbur, lst tromboneg Samuel Weiss, lnd tromboneg john Horst, 3rd tromboneg and William Fickes, with trombone. Witli a beautifully subtle influence, it accentuated the deeper and more sorrowful thread of the statue Galatea's destiny. The Karux, 1935 One Hundred Thirty-Two Upper XYinilows: Geer, Markle, J.

X hire u Stony Batter Club created a stage set which receivcd a burst of applause when 5 the curtain rose. Undoubtly the most elaborate setting ever undertaken here, the scene represented a quaint, retired neighborhood on the Thames above London, in the year 1805. Five little brick houses, with front-yard fences and gardens, were shaded by a great tree, whose foliage, visible above the second-story windows, offered a cool shade for folk sitting on the circular bench beneath it. By the river stood a voice-covered gazebo or summer house, the retreat of the various lovers, and two street lamps. lent a gentle glow on a moonless night. Among the outstanding qualities of the production were the quick tempo, the constant and spontaneous playing into scene of the actors, whose characterizations were Winsome and refreshing, and the gay and bubbling momentum gathered as each act progressed. The audience, in a mood to be amused, laughed and applauded heartily, which gave the evening a jovial and festive air throughout. OR the Micl-Winter production of Pomazzzdcr Walk, by I.ouis N.

The Choir Eff NE of the most impressive Parts of the Chapel service is The Choir. 'l'he H processionul, beginning at the nnrthex, the response, and the recessionul through Z the east trnnsept, with the echoing Amen, give great beauty and depth to the services. The processional is led by a Crucifer with a flag-bearer half-way back. The hymns rendered are by both modern and ancient composers, and through the past year many beautiful yet difficult anthems have been sung with art and skill under the very fine and capable instruction of Mr. Hovdesven and Mr. Young. These men work with the boys twice a week at practices, and they can be congratulated with the boys of the Choir on their fine work.

Bareham, who trains this organization 3, so thoroughly and effectively, has for a long time devoted untiring energy in '-' coaching annually new groups to sing, with great finish, musical compositions which are often most mature and exacting for youthful singers. The performances of the Glee Club retiect that its members are not only ambitious to work hard to sing creditably, but also that they love the singing for its own sake. This organization, the members of which .ire scattered among the student body whenever it sings, is in large part responsible for the keeping up of Mercersburgs repu- tation as The Singing School, and the Glee Club concerts are invariably occasions of much enjoyment in the school life.

All the personal write-ups of a fell0w's 9 activities while at school are sent to his home-town newspapers. lts reporters also cover all athletic contests in which Mercersburg participates here, and they send these accounts to all of the metropolitan newspapers. The president of this year's organization, .lohn Shirk, must be congratulated on his dependability and excellent way in which he has managed the Press Club. Mr. Chapman, the Faculty Adviser, deserves praise for his untiring leadership and the unselfish use of his time toward making the club an even greater success. lfyghrjtlefyr ll. S.

The Mercersburg News HE student weekly publication, The rlIw'cev1rb111'g Nezzlf, is a permanent record otf the happenings on the campus and about the life of the School. We have D proof of its excellence in the fact that it is consistently ranked high in several contests. This year's Editor-in-Chief, john Shirk, has shown his :ability and originality by the several marked changes in this year's set-up. Also Philip jones has done an admirable job as Business Manager. Much credit must be given to the Faculty Advisers, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Kempton, and Mr. Barker, for their assistance in editing the paper. Credit must also be given every member of The Newt, for they have worked hard to do their part in making this paper a leader in the country.

The Lit -' HE LIT, the Mercersburg literary magazine published once a month, has become jj a valuable cog in the excellence of theme writing and English of the school. 'The material of which it is comprised, both prose and poetry, is contributed by the boys. Thus the matter has a great range and variety which adds to the interest of the magazine. This year, under the editorship of E. P. Douglass and super- vision of the Faculty Adviser, Dr. Rutledge, the publication has become a finished work and has added greatly to the literary side ol' the school. Iidifm--iff-Cfrief P.

Irvine Day HE thirteenth day of October, as has been the custom, was set aside by Dr. Edwards as a holiday in memory of Dr. William Mann Irvine, Mercersburg's first Headmaster. This day marked the anniversary of Dr. Irvine's seventieth birthday. At the Memorial Chapel Services, Dr. Earl L. Douglass spoke of Dr. Irvine's devotion to this Academy which he raised to the highest circles in the educational world in such a short span of time. He was a rare combination-a good scholar, a great administrator, a dreamer of great dreams, a marvelous character, a great lover of beauty and the out-of-doors, an incurable idealist, and his greatest quality of all was his capacity for religious faithfmthus Dr. Douglass described him. This day serves as a powerful reminder of Dr. Irvine's ambition to make Mercers- burg the leading secondary school in America. This memorial day acts as a stimulus to the boys and 'Masters to carry forward his ambition. Although we set aside this day as a memorial, this school stands as a living memorial to this prodigious worker and genius. One Hundred Fifty-One The Karux, 1935 Field Day ' T Mercersburg, Field Day marks the beginning of many track careers. It is the I' day for unearthing ability hitherto unknown even to the boys themselves. When Field Day dawned without rain, the Weather Man broke a long-standing tradi- tion. However, the day was chilly and the sky dark and forbidding. The events were held after a buffet luncheon in the Assembly Hall. One of the high lights of the afternoon was the exhibition of Ralston LeGore, a Mercersburg alumnus, in javelin throwing. At three o'clock the happy throng consisting of the student body, their parents and friends, and the Masters gathered at Keil Hall for the Forty-Second Field Day Banquet. Dr. james G. Rose, Pastor of the Mercersburg Presbyterian Church, and the only person who has attended every Field Day dinner since its beginning, asked the blessing. The singing and cheering of the fellows between courses added greatly to the atmosphere and the spirit of the gathering. At the conclusion of the dinner with Dr. Edwards presiding, the athletic awards were given to those boys winning them in the Fall sports. First he announced the names of the boys entitled to wear the major because of their service on the gridiron. Next the names of those receiving awards, for second team football, tennis, cross-country, soccer, and intra-mural touch football, were announced. Then Richard B. White received the Football Individual Prize, awarded to the player whose ability and achievement inspire his fellow team-mates to play a more spirited, lighting, and clean game. The next award was the Olympic Medal Award which was given to William A. Carr, a Mercersburg alumnus and 1932 Olympic winner. The entire Field Day dinner program was concluded with the awarding of the Williams Trophy, a cup awarded each year to the athlete winning the most points in the Pentathlon Events during the preceding week. This year, with extremely close competition, the contest resulted in a triple tie among Charles Mutchler, Alexander Mitchell, and Charles Fisher. After the Alma Mater had been sung, the parents attended an informal meeting with the faculty at the Administration Building. lt was a fitting close to the Fall athletic program. Mid-Winter Festivities 1 4 HE week-end of George Washington's Birthday annually marks the happy and L joyful occasions of the Mid-Winter Festivities. This week-end helps to break the monotony of the dreary Winter term, and to gladden our hearts and raise our spirits after the Mid-Term Examinations. King Vlfinter spread one of his best white blankets over our campus, and the beauty of our snow-covered trees will long be remembered by the several hundred guests who spent the week-end with us. The activities began Thursday evening, February 21, with the Stony Batter Dramatic Club presenting Pomander Walk with a cast of thirty. This play was another complete success to the credit of its director, Mr. Pratt I.. Tobey, and the boys partici- pating in the production. The Karux, 1935 One Hundred Fifty-Two Friday afternoon saw the revival of the friendly feud between the Washington Irving and the john Marshall Literary Societies. The teams from the Societies competed on the court and pool of the Carl Lewis Nolde Gymnasium. Marshall was the victor in both basketball and swimming by a large margin. That evening the chief social function took place in Keil Hall as Paul Tremaine played for the school's guests at the Mid-Winter formal. On Saturady morning Coach Kuhn's wrestling team fought valiantly, but in an exciting and close match were barely nosed out by the strong Lehigh Frosh team by the score of 14-12. In the afternoon Coach Miller's swimmers easily defeated the Princeton Freshman Team 57-18. Following these athletic events, a most successful Tea Dance was held in the Administration Building with the Blue and White Melodians furnishing the music. Mrs. Edwards and several of the Masters' wives served tea during the dance. Without doubt the most glamorous and exciting occurrence of the week-end took place Saturday night in the Gymnasium. This was the Forty-Second Annual Inter- Society Debate. Because of Marshall's victory in the year previous, they entered first and took their places on the right side of the gymnasium. Irving followed and occupied the left side, and the visitors were in the center. The gym resounded with the yells and noise-making instruments which the boys used to encourage the speakers of their teams. While the judges were casting their votes after the debate, the two Societies held a streamer battle with the center section bearing the brunt of the attack. When Dr. Edwards announced the decision of the judges, it was found that the Marshall team had won the debate with Bernard William Cashdollar of Irving as the best speaker. The debate concluded the week-end activities, and the fellows resumed their studies with many happy experiences and ever-lasting memories of the Mid-XVinter Festivities. Pre-Christmas Events HE last week before Christmas Vacation, although it might seem to many to be T a week of feverish excitement and longing for its termination, was one of the ' most pleasant weeks of the year. The Faculty was as plentifully endowed with the Christmas Spirit as the boys, and Dr. and Mrs. Edwards' annual Christmas party for the Faculty on the last Tuesday of the term was a cheery affair indeed. The Administration Building was decorated in true Christmas style with lighted Christmas trees in the holly-wreathed and ribboned building. On Saturday, December eighth, the Christmas Tea Dance was held in the Adminis- tration Building. Dr. and 'Mrs. Edwards were hosts at this dance, and the Faculty wives poured tea during the dance. Memories of the last Sunday are deeply imbedded in the hearts of all the boys, for the Chapel with beautiful pines lit with soft blue lights about the chancery and the walls covered with holly and laurel was a picture never to be forgotten. The Vesper Services were especially beautiful, with tall white candles as the only illumination. The white of the candles and walls with the green of nature formed a picture long to be remembered. The annual Christmas Banquet was held the last night with all members of the Faculty and their families being present. Keil Hall was decorated with lighted pines and the only other illumination were the red candles on each table. Throughout the dinner Christmas carols were boisterously sung by the boys and the Masters, as both thought of the relief on the morrow. With the singing of the Alma Mater, the dinner was concluded. The happy week was exactly as Dr. Edwards had wished, one of happiness and one long to be remembered.

Lehigh Freshmen Kiski Opponents 6 1 2 0 20 6 7 0 51 One Hundred Sixty-Eight The Football Season of 1935, V7 LTHOUGH Mercersburg lost three games this year, which may not sound I impressive when last year's single defeat is taken into consideration, the football r team can rightly hold up its head and take its place among the ranks of the H v Mercersburg great teams. After all, greatness is determined by the height of excellence attained by any one team. After an unimpressive start, Mercersburg came back in the latter part of the season to thrill the football world with its play. The teamwork and lighting spirit reached the peak it had been accustomed to hold during the past few years. ln the last' game of the season, the Kiski game, the blocking and tackling were things of beauty to behold. The ball carriers swept through the opposing line protected by a veritable crowd of blue jerseyed players. The passing, kicking, running, in fact, every department of play reached its perfection in that game. All early-season misfortunes were forgotten as Mercersburg rooters cheered their team on to victory. ' . , Mercersburg had many individual stars this year. However, it took these stars four games to coagulate into a winning team. Once teamwork arrived, however, it manifested itself to a great degree of excellence. The ends, on the whole were rather weak, although the two first-string ends, Boy Bayer and Bernie Cashdollar, were exceptionally good men. Both were excellent pass-catchers, and were well-nigh impreg- nable on defense. At tackles were the brilliant Bill Bradway, of whom no more need be said, and dependable Grandfather Geddes who is soon to write a book called 20,000 Years in Mercersburg. XVhen the season opened, it seemed as if the guard positions would be weak, but at the close of the season, Coach Kempton had no less than live husky guards, each of whom would be a valuable addition to any team. These five were: Bob Barr, joe Klein, john Franks, Ed. Stites, and Nick Costa, who was also heavyweight wrestler for the Academy. As usual, the center position was well taken care of. Hal Bellis played sparkling football at that position. Although weighing only 155 pounds, he was unsurpassed for speed in breaking through the line. His passing, tackling, and blocking were all equally well performed. Big Ed Nittoli was just as good, but was handicapped by injuries throughout the season. The outstanding figure of the backfield was Dick Wfhite. A triple-threat man, Dick fitted into any position of the backfield with brilliance. Boyd Hutchison and Doc. Schweitzer did great things in backing up the line as well as in ball-carrying. Ed. Martz, the best punter on the squad, was a good steady passer, and a shifty open-field runner. Ralph Shobert was a smart quarterback, who performed all the duties of that position with alertness and skill. Other players who must be mentioned because of their out- standing plays are: Charles Ewing, Bob Wallace, George Wagner, Norm Hough, Vaughan Dow, Don Roehrs, and Bob Murphy. Bill Bradway, winner last year of the Individual Football Trophy, was further honored this year by being elected captain of the team. Dick White, because of his excellent spirit and influence over his teammates, as well as his sterling playing ability, was awarded this yearis Individual Football Trophy. As she is proud of these two men, so has Mercersburg the right to be proud of her whole football team.

' D Witli a team that was composed of both experienced and inexperienced players, i Coach Curran obtained an organization that could boast of having won the Cumberland Round Robin Championship. In the finals of this tournament, Mercersburg gained revenge on Lemasters High School for an early season defeat, and won the game 2-0. The team was rather unwieldy at the start of the season, but after its one defeat, the members found themselves and were not thereafter defeated. Fred Maize whose work as goalie was truly outstanding, was elected captain by his teammates at the close of the season. The playing of George johnson and Phil Shehan at the fullback positions must also be commended. The others were not far behind either in skill or in spirit. Those receiving the a-M-f are: Maize, johnson, Shehan, Hoober, McClain, Low, Harkins, Kapp, Wiiigert, Steiger, Phillips, Wasclier. Gilmore, and Mitchell.

Almost every year, one of her fine coaches turns out a championship ,g team in some sport or another. Last year, the Mercersburg swimming team was the greatest scholastic team in the country. It was doubtful whether the wonderful record its members set up would ever be equalled. Yet this year, Coach Miller produced a team which, if it did not excel, equalled the unbeatable team of last year. Wi'tl1out a doubt, this yearls organization was the best balanced and highest scoring team to appear for many a year. The Mercersburg swimmers, in ten meets, averaged 51.5 points per meet to their opponents 19.5. The outstanding features of a team that was so well balanced that it could be said to have no outstanding members, were the medley relay teams. A 150-yard medley relay composed of Bill Mackey, Bud deBruycker, and Nelson Otis, swimming in that order, broke the inter-scholastic world record at the Yale pool, bringing the time down to 1 minute 26.6 seconds. The 300-yard medley relay team accomplished the year's outstanding feat when it lowered the existing world's short course record of 5.11 seconds to 3 minutes 8.3 seconds in thel Naval Academy pool. Mackey, swimming backstroke, swam his 100 yards in 1 minute 3.2 seconds. Bob johnson, the breaststroker, swam his distance in 1 minute 10 seconds. Hank Van Oss, who swam freestyle, did 55.1 for his distance. Each individual time was under the Mercersburg pool record for that event. Q9 '-'IERCERSBURG is known throughout the sporting world for its proficiency in Z' l The Karim, 1935 One Hundred Seventy-Four The highlights of the dual meet season were the meets with the Harvard and the Yale Freshmen. The Yale meet was featured by the excellent showing of johnny Macionis, the star of last year's Mer- cersburg team, and holder of the world interscholastic records in the 220 and the 440-yard swims. johnny has since broken all of the Yale varsity records at those distances, and has come very close to johnny XVeismuller's world records, even though he is only a freshman. Every event in this meet was close. The relay team composed of Van Oss, Holzer, Moonan, and Farnsworth, won the event in the near-record time of 1 minute 37.3 seconds. Farnsworth won the fifty-yard dash in 24.4 seconds. Endweiss won the dive after giving a brilliant exhibition. Against the-hereto'undefeated Harvard Freshmen, Otis swam the outstanding race of the meet when he won the 220-yard swim in the fast time of 2 minutes 22 seconds. These two meets were marked ,by the excellent spirit of the Mercers- burg team. The fellows were determined to win, and win they did. Mercersburg was well fortified in each event. In the relay she had at least six men, any combination of whom could come close to the world record. The fifty-yard dash was headed by Bill Farnsworth, a line competitor who went best when the 'going was toughest. At Yale, he swam his two laps of the relay in the phenomenal time of 23.5 seconds, then, with' but five minutes rest he won the fifty-yard dash in 24.4. Holzer was also capable of breaking 24 in the relay, as was johnson. Williams showed great speed in this event toward the end of the year.,In the 100-yard dash, there were four men who could break 56-seconds. johnson achieved the fastest time of 54 flat up at Yale. Van Oss was steady around 55 seconds, and Moonan also broke 56 consistently. In the 220-yard swim, Otis was the most consistent winner losing only to Macionis at Yale, and coming within a fraction of a second of breaking the latter's pool record in the Nolde pool. johnson also excelled ,at that distance, and Welsh showed great improvement toward the end of the year. The backstroke was very strong. Bill ,Mackey proved to be one of the leading backstrokers of the East, losing only to Cummins at Harvard, and averaging close to . 1:05 for the season. Daniel Endweiss and Williamson also showed good speed in that event. The breaststroke was well taken care of by Bob johnson, who was always ca- pable of 1 :10 or better for the 100-yards. DeBruycker and Van Mater also were point winners in this event. The medley relays were very strong. In practice and in meets they boasted of such excellent times as 1 minute 24.8 seconds for the 150-yard medley, 3 min- utes 8.3 seconds for the 300- yard short-course medley, and 3:12 for the long-course med- ley. Mention must also be made here of Phil jones, man- ager, who greatly helped the team by his earnest and 'en- thusiastic work. ,goo-YARIJ MEDLEY RELAY TEAM Marki-y, rleliruycker, Otis One Hundred Seventy-Pive The Karlizf, 1935 SCHEDULE Mercersburg Opponents 52 Lehigh Freshmen 14 53 Baltimore City College 22 52 Trenton High School 23 58 University of Penn Freshmen 17 52 Montclair Y.

Dick Kapp pinned three men in the preliminaries of the 115-pound class only to lose by a narrow margin in the finals. The veteran Manny Ardolino, wrestling as well as usual, reached the Hnals, and there barely was defeated by the smallest of time advantages in an overtime period. Leroy Scott, with his, famous leg- scissors hold, became the third Mercersburg man to reach the finals, winning two of his trial bouts on falls. However, in the finals, he too, lost in a close bout. Nick Costas arm locks served him to good stead throughout the prelims, but were of no avail to him in the finals, when another heavyweight, after a long tussle defeated him. Swede Olsen, Mercersburg's representative in the 175-pound class, pinned all his men quickly in the trials, and crashed through to the finals to win the championship with ease. Others who performed well in this meet were: johnny DeGregori in the 125- pound class, Milton Geer in the 155-pound class, and Jack Guren in the 165-pound class. Leroy Scott was elected captain of the team by his teammates. He had been a mainstay of the team several years, and well deserved the honor. Besides those who made the first team, special mention for their good work must be made to Alexander, Cook, Kelley, Rogers, Goodfellow, Smith, jalkut, and Paul.

ACED with the loss of some half dozen stars who helped win the Indoor and F Outdoor Inter-scholastic Championships last year, Coach Curran was by no means 95 as discouraged as it might seem he had a right to be. The outcome of the cross- country season in itself was very encouraging. As all of last year's harriers had graduated, Mr. Curran had to build an entirely new team. Yet this team lost' to Navy, in the years only meet, by a very close score. Steve Szumachowski won first place in record-smashing time, and others who placed were, Hopkins, DeLuca, and Moore. Steve later placed second in the National Inter-scholastic Cross-Country Championships at Van Cortlandt Park, New York City. ln spite of the fact that she entered no relay teams, Mercersburg won third place in the National Indoor Championships at Madison Square Garden on February 25. When the fact is taken into consideration that a majority of the team had never before The Karux, 1935 Ono Hundred Eighty THI-I CROSS LfUT,'N'1'RY SQUAD Mr. Currzin, Greer, Moore, Hopkins, Szmnaelmwski, Loewi, Culbertson, :De Luca. competed in a meet on a board track, one wonders how the team managed to perform as well as it did. Elwin Salter, veteran quarter-miler, won Mercersburgs only first place when he vxon his specialty after a hard race with sterling competition. Charles Mutchler, captain of the team, was just nosed out of first place in the 320-yard dash, and came in third in the 60-yard dash. Steve Szumachowski finished second in the mile, Bradway placed a close third in the shotput. Wagner and Fisher finished third in the 220-yard dash and 60-yard high hurdles events respectively. Fifth place wias taken by Dow in the 440-yard run, by Hopkins in the half-mile, and by Mitchell in the 60-yard dash.

L Second Row: Mr. Grabill, Nieklin, Kehne, Douglass, Fretz. Seated: Hoobvr, Dalzell, Ryder, cleliruycker, l1l.ll1ll3lTI. The Tennis Team V HE outcome of the Fall tennis tournament was in the nature of an upset. Bud deBruycker, winner of the singles crown last year and favored to repeat this year, fell victim to the drives of a greatly improved jim Ryder, who stroked 4 his way through the preliminary rounds to win the finals in straight sets. DeBruycker retained part of his glory when he teamed up with Wfenger to defeat Ryder and Dalzell for the doubles crown. This year's team got off to a good start due to the fact that a great' number of last year's men have returned, and also due to the great improvement of the newcomers. The competition for places on the varsity squad was very keen with all the veterans having to step fast to hold their places against new- comers. As a result of the Fall eliminations, the following squad was named by Coach Grabill: Ryder, deBruycker, Boyer, Hoober, Kehne, Dalzell, Dunham, Freiberg, Wenger, H. Wilson, Douglass, Nicklin. By the new system inaugurated by Coach Grabill last year, any fellow may advance onto the squad by challenging the man directly above him and defeating him.
