HANSEN, Circulation Managcr PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF THE MERCERSBURG ACADEMY MERCERSBURG, PA. I 'gba gN presenting this volume of the KARUX for the school year of 1944-45 the Board has sought to bring into print a resume of the organizations, scholastic and athletic life, social events and other incidents of another War year at Mercersburg Academy. The present administration has main- tained a close contact with the boys of the school, and with this in mind the art motifs have been taken from the Garden House in the Boys' Gar- den. The grape is a symbol of the harvest, and in like manner it suggests in the book the fulfil- ment of another year of Hard Work, Fair Play, and Clean Lifeu in school and in the service of these United States.

HANIIER, JR. 42 v FHIEGQIEB UUDGQSTEGBUS WAEEDUCWQEBY To THE MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR CLASSES: It is diiiicult for the boys now in school to remember the time when we said goodbye to only one senior class each year. Since the summer of 1943, because of! the War, there have been three classes, August, January, and May. Seventeen of you finished last summer, thirty last January, and nearly ninety will leave at the end of May. I am sorry that all of you could not have had a normal commencement in May, but time is pressing and the war must go on. Some of you, by attending two summer sessions, are being graduated one year earlier than had been originally planned. In periods of great national crisis, boys must become men sooner than before. V By the time this appears, most of those who left last summer and in Janu- ary will be in uniform, some already either close to or on the firing line. Of the May class, several have already received orders for induction. Others are already in or will soon be in the Navy, several are being graduated in absentia because of early entry into the service. By the end of the summer, most of the May class will be joining other Mercersburg boys in Army or Boot camps. You are meeting the challenge with fine spirit and courage, with your chins up, and eagerness to do your best. We are very proud of you and we shall follow your careers with deep interest and aifection. My generation, like yours, had to leave school to fight a war. Your generation, like mine, will go back to finish an education interrupted by mili- tary service. What boys have done before, you can do. Mrs. Tippetts joins me in wishing you good luck and God speed. Come back to see us whenever you dan. There is always a place for you at North Cottage, day or night.

The spoils of war can not lower the hopes nor discourage the high morale of these members as they go happily on their way, leaving behind them the best days of their life, which will never be forgotten. Although they are fewer in number than their predecessors, they bring themselves forward as the second Graduating Class of January of this, their beloved Alma Mater, holding their heads high with honors. They have proved themselves worthy of these honors on the playing fields, in class rooms, societies, and in extra curricular activities, and at the same time maintaining, however, one of the highest averages for a graduating class in the history of the school. There are seven members of the class on the high honor roll with averages above ninety, and many more who just missed that mark by a little. They are but thirty-one in number, yet of the Fifteen seven are members of our class. Of the ten senators, four are graduates. There is also one honorary senator among them. The class officers and Commencement Speakers are well-known for their extra curricular work. Three of their members are on the Lit Board, with two of them as editors. The News holds two editors in our class, and the KARUX three. There are also four other members of our class who are members of this board. This fall the members of this class could be seen on any one of the playing fields of the campus. Some of their feats will never be forgotten. The varsity football team had nine members from this class on its squad. Eight of these were regular players, and the ninth was the manager of the team. The cross country team had the good fortune of having three of our class on the team. There were also several members of this class on the soccer squad. This winter one member of this class was on the basketball team and did a fine job there. There are four who were seen on the wrestling team. The one team that can't be forgotten is the swimming team. This team holds two members of our class. Of the thirty-one members all are members of the Senior Club and five have been oiiicers at one time or another. There is one Marshall officer and two Irving officers among them. The good work being done by the Y. M. C. A. is being done by three of them. There are nine members of the Choir, and two of these are officers. The Chapel Ushers can not be excluded from this list of honors. There are on its staff five members, and one of these is the head student usher. And there are many more clubs and societies of which these men are members. Some of them are the Press Club, El Circulo Espanol, and Rauchrunde. So you can see how this class has heaped itself with honors. Mercersburg is left behind as they depart for higher things, but in the hearts of these, it will never be forgotten. Its spirit and motto will guide them in whatsoever they do, and the training they received here will lead them to success and a top goal.

To the Class of June 1945, however, the breaking of the new year brought forth a glimpse of the concluding act of its residence at Mercersburg. Soon we shall take our places on the graduation platform as did the countless other June Senior Classes of our mothering institution. All is not honor, for along with that scroll tied with the traditional blue ribbon comes a charge which will remain as an ultimate goal for the rest of our lives-namely, to live up to the sacred school motto of Clean Life, Hard Work, and Fair Play that has governed and profoundly influenced the period of our existence passed on this renowned campus. It is the duty of every member of the present Senior Class to accept the responsibility of dedicating himself for its fulfillment. Let us at this time glance back upon the numerous achievements by which we have firmly established a record that will serve as an objective for our posterity. The scholas- tic standing with regard to the June Seniors has been one which every member may view With a strong feeling of justifiable pride. A survey of the High Honor Roll at each termination of a biweekly period would have revealed a permanent place for the strong representation from our ranks. The various honorary organizations including the Chemistry Club along with the language clubs have as the majority of their officers representatives of the June Class of 1945. The Fifteen, the honorary English organ- ization of the school, can also boast of a similar situation. The Seniors are unmistakably athletically inclined to the extent that the varsity teams in nearly every phase of sports are well stocked by our classmen. The football squad was considerably strengthened by having as its key backfield men prominent grid- men from our number. Not neglecting the all important line, the striking power of its seldom-pierced wall was supplied by our classmates. In fact one cannot name a chief branch of school athletics that is not maintained to a deciding degree by us. The wres- tling team, swimming squad, and basketball five are all manned by our seasoned veterans. Finally turning to the extra curricular activities, the thoroughness of participation in the many phases of the opportunities offered at the Academy nearly baffles the one who is obliged to make a record of such. The News , the KARUX and the Lit , which represent the student publications, are headed Without an exception by Seniors. Concern- ing the musical organizations we follow the standard class tradition-that of generous participation. In all, we can state without an overdrawn rating of our accomplishments that in every respect, the Class of '45 has upheld the standards set by our predecessors. To Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts as well as to all our instructors goes our heartiest thanks for their sincere and invaluable service rendered in our behalf. There is no possible way by which we can hope to repay them. Now the climax of our preparatory school career is rapidly approaching. Upon leaving Mercersburg, nearly ninety of us will be launched into the struggles and turmoil of a world at war. Whether or not it is our destiny to proceed to college, enter into military service, or continue by another means toward our chosen end, we push on, possessing an infallible confidence and sustained by our past preparation.

Historian - JAMES INGRAHAM MARSH, JR., Pittsburgh, Pa. Faculty Adviser ---- MR. ROY M. ANDREW CLASS HISTORY The year of 1944 brings the war's end closer and closer. We of the Summer Gradu- ating Class step ahead unhesitatingly ready to prepare ourselves for places in a world of peace. The sixteen members of our class know not what is held in store for them after graduation, but we know that we shall not fail or stumble along the wayside, for we all are potential leaders. Underclassmen have seen our classmates striving for victory in many varsity sports and games. Although we are but sixteen strong, our class has represented itself with pride in most of the extracurricular activities around the school. The Senate, honor language clubs, the Chemistry Club, and the Stony Batter Club reflect just a few of our accomplishments. Two of our members have taken honors at inter- scholastic meets. Our class holds the honor of having as one of our classmates the first ex-serviceman of the war to graduate from Mercersburg. We have had many hours of enjoyment watching breath-taking varsity games. We shall never forget the informal meetings each Monday with our Headmaster and his wife, the carillon Saturday nights ringing over hill and valley, the excitement of the Marshall and Irving debates, and listening to brilliant war correspondents expressing their viewpoints. These and many other activities will stand out in remembrance when our thoughts turn to our Alma Mater. This is Mercersburg! May we never forget her! Many of us have been here four and five years, others only a few months, but all of us have gained the friendship of the members of the faculty and the Headmaster. We have been taught to appreciate good things and people. We have been given the oppor- tunity to know and possess the distinctive traits of honesty and unselfishness. We have learned how to become leaders, and we shall show this quality wherever we are. Now as the curtain falls on our school days at Mercersburg, we, the Class of August, 1944, wish to express our sincerest gratitude to Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts for their sacrifices and endless work to help our class. They have had a great deal of influence on us, and we thank them. To our faculty adviser, Dean Andrew, who has helped us in times of need, we want to express our appreciation. But now the time is getting shorter and shorter, until soon we shall only be able to remember Mercersburg. The curtain has fallen and sixteen young men step forward to take their positions in this world. In our minds a motto shall be inscribed which we shall always follow: Hard Work, Fair Play, Clean Life. And now to you, beloved Mercersburg, we of the class of August, 1944, salute you and say, Good-by.

The accomplishments of our class are varied and numerous, upholding the high standards of Mercersburg on the athletic fields and in the class- rooms. By hard work and fair play we have gained our success in both of these fields. During the entire year members of our class have contributed a great deal to the athletic activities on the campus. The varsity football team had five of our classmates in its starting line-up and many more on the secondary varsity and junior varsity teams. In the wrestling meets could be seen many Upper Middlers, striving for a well- earned victory. Captaining the cross-country team was our Class President, while the track team was made up of many from our ranks. The swimming, basketball, and baseball teams were well represented by those of us who were successful enough to win a place on these squads. Still others gained prominence on the soccer, tennis, and relay squads. In the scholastic field We pride ourselves on the fine showing we have made. Ap- pearing on the biweekly honor roll are from eight to ten of us, whereas numerous others attain averages that warrant a position on the iirst or second honor rolls. Upper Middlers have worked hard and have gained from this work a fine education, which will manifest itself in years to come. Taking an active part in the school's varied extra-curricular activities were many members of our group. Students from the Upper Middler Class made a name for them- selves in the honorary language and chemistry clubs. Some held places on various com- mittees, while others of us showed talent in writing and held responsible positions on the News,,' the KARUX and the Lit boards. Still others were the mainstays of the musical groups which have continued to bring amusement to the campus this year. We of the class of 1946 are proud of our record as this year's Upper Middler Class. We shall always look back with fond memories on the days we spent together, working, playing, and learning. To the school we give our promise to carry on our abilities and to honor Mercersburg next year and in future years with gifts of achievement.

Although it is made up mostly of boys here for the first time, they have adapted themselves to the school life very well. Throughout this year a constant place of recognition has been upheld by the members of this class. L Members of the Lower Middler Class have participated in almost every type of sport. From our ranks have come members of the football, wrestling, basketball, swimming, and baseball teams. Not only have the Lower Middlers been active in sports, but many have become members of various clubs and organiza- tions such as the Chapel Choir, Glee Club, and the honorary lan- guage clubs. In the future we of the Lower Middler Class will endeavor to maintain and improve the high standards of work and scholar- ship which we have attempted to establish both here at Mercers- burg and in all walks of life. In our next two years here, we must produce the leaders of the Mercersburg students. It is on the foundations which we now lay that we must build our class of the future. MAURICE B.

It has grown from a class of twenty-three members to the present class of fifty-six. The class is not one to be lagging behind in the sports of the school. Under the leadership of Mr. Kuhn and Mr. Plancz the boys have been able to get the full require- ment of exercise needed. In the fall of the year the boys organized a football team underlthe coaching of Mr. Iflantz. Coach Kuhn hopes to have a softball team in the spring. With the training these boys are getting now they will be the ones who will make up the varsity teams of years to come. The boys have also joined many clubs. There is at least one Upper or Lower Junior in every club of the school. Laucks Hall, which is the Junior Dormitory, was not large enough to hold all of the class this year, so some of the boys were moved to other dorms. This, however, does not dampen the friendship among the boys. Even though the time is a long way off, the boys are looking forward to the time when they will be the leaders of Mercersburg. WILLIAM J.

This organization includes the mem- bership of ten students, four Faculty members, and the Head Master, and through this group the students of the Academy may express their feelings in relation to the life of the school, and the Senate, in turn, relates these to the Administration. Because of their major activities the boys who make up this organization are capable and render a creditable service to all. Each week meetings are held in the Senate room to discuss suggestions submitted by some of the students and to deal with a few disciplinary cases. These suggestions are studied carefully and argued pro and con, and if they are satisfactory to the Senate it is presented to the executives of the school. Many of the privileges now enjoyed by the students were obtained in this way. Again this year the Senate has dealt with problems set before them in a manner pleasing to all. The method in which these boys are chosen for the Senate is the main reason for this satisfaction. There are in all ten students, and five Faculty members, including the Head Master, Dr. Tippetts. Two upper middlers and one lower middler are elected by the student body, one member is chosen by the incoming Senateg one is picked by the Faculty members of the Senateg two by the faculty as a whole. and final two are appointed by Dr. Tippetts. Last year for the first time honorary Senators were elected from the summer and January graduating classes. First Row, Left to Right -Mr. Kuhn, Mr. Andrews. F. Dir-lil, Dr. 'l'i1metts.

NxiIIllL'I'S GUN CMD For the mast few ears the Mercersbur Academ Gun Club has been an im ortant i Y C, s I Y P a group on the campus. lzvery Saturday morning the members meet at the clay pigeon trap to practice shooting at the clay pigeons. Since the war has cut the supplies, it has become almost impossible to obtain any additional equipment. Thus the Club's program has been considerably hampered. The master in charge is Mr. Norris Grabill, who has had much experience in handling firearms. Rudolph Burger, who was president of the Gun Club last year, has been re-elected by the members of the Club. The shortage of the supplies was more than made up for, when Mr. Grabill took last fall some of the boys deer hunting in the neighboring mountains.

Goff as faculty adviser. The activities this year as in the past few years have been greatly curtailed because of the war. Because of transportation difficulties, l'l10St of the dances this year have had to be benefits. The annual Fall Tea Dance was held on the Saturday before Field Day, and was considered a success. An All-Senior dance was planned and held for the first time, january 27, but the Mid-W'inter dance was cancelled because of scarlet fe-ver in school from which the larger number of girls planned to attend. The Commencement Dance is planned as one of final events. OHAICERS WILl.lAM K. ROCKEY - - - - Clvuirmau MR. liOBFRT M. GOl l4' I'vdt'7I1fj! Arlrixer MEMBERS Robert A. Brechter Marshall XV.

Two years ago, in the winter of 1943, there was established The Senior Club that since then has set a precedent for the school to follow, and shown to all that the student body can co-operate and accept responsibility when the opportunity is presented. The Club has, since its founding, given to the Senior Class a place where they can come and relax, enjoy a cigarette, and talk over the happenings about the campus. When the Seniors took over the basement of South Cottage, where the club is now located, they had very little besides four walls and a ceiling, but since then they have converted it, through great co-operation. into an attractive and comfortable lounge with overstuffed Chairs, curtains, and a ping pong table for those who desire some recreation with their relaxation.

Withers GQSHUWIGTQDINI UGWUING SQCUETFY In the year 1865, when Marshall College was located at Mercershurg, the Wasliiiig- ton Irving Literary Society was founded. Since that time this organization has stood for the highest ideals and standards of the Mercersburg boy as is shown by the motto of Clean Life, Hard Work, Fair Play. Since the annual inter-society debate was first organized in 1901 Irving has pro- duced twenty-two out of forty-four possible winning teams and also has wrestled twenty of the Best Speaker Awards from her younger competitor, the John Marshall Literary Society, which was founded one year later than Irving, in 1866. Those Alumni of the school who have been skillful and fortunate enough to gain a position on the Irving team have spoken many praises of its help to themselves in later years. Three years ago Mr. Grey H. Wfyman assumed the post of Irving Faculty Adviser and since then has served the teams and the society with patience, keenness, loyalty, and enthusiasm.

Young BCDEFJN HUDEQNIFSSH ll. SCCDCUETY The year of 1866 marks the founding of the John Marshall Literary Society in Mar- shall College, one year after the Washington Irving Society first met. Although Mar- shall College is now the Mercersburg Academy, the Marshall Society still maintains the traditional interest in the annual debates. This organization was appropriately named after John Marshall, who for thirty-four years was the third Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Both students and alumni devotees of the Marshall Society retain an interest in their stirring motto, Hold Fast to That Which Is Good. Through the years of defeat and victory it has won twenty-two out of forty-four debates conducted between Irving and Marshall. This year James Maxwell won Best Speaker Award.

Due credit should be given to Mr. Bryan Barker, Editorial Adviser, and Mr. Robert R.. Black, Business Adviser, and the student editorial and business staffs. This year has witnessed another capable Editor-in-Chief in the person of Richard A. Gray, Jr., who has given his untiring application during the past year in order to develop the paper farther along the lines of sound journalism, which is shown by his wonderful composition of the articles. Also to be complimented for their untiring cffots are james A. Maxwell, Jr., Associate Editor, Sports Editor joseph M. Nesbit, III, and Rudolph E. Burger, Business Manager. For the seventh time a gold medal has been won in Columbia Contest. Credit is also due to those other student members who have given their services to the paper, namely, business staff and associates, and photographers, without whose work the publications would have been impossible. The war definitely affected the paper as it was printed under sub-contract due to local labor shortage, and as a result at times was not up to the fine printing job of former years.

Chapman. It has been published ever since because it proved such a success with the students and the friends of the school. All the profit now obtained through the sale of the Calendar is turned over to an art fund, and many portraits of those who have been responsible for the present school have been given to the Academy. Through this fund each generation of the Mercersburg student body is indirectly able to participate in a movement which enriches the tradition of the school. NALUMNI QUARTERLY,, The Alumni Quarterly, published four times a year under the leadership of Mr. Daniel Heefner, the Alumni Secretary of the school, is the vital means by which the school is able to keep in contact with over seven thousand alumni of the Academy. Accounts of important events at the school, the activity of the Head Master and faculty, and the advancements of the alumni are recorded in the pages of the publication. This year the Secretary has carefully recorded the war record of alumni in service. CATALOGUE AND VIEW BooK Edited by Mr. James G. Miller are the Catalogue and the View Book. These are published each year and sent to future prospects of Mercersburg Academy, as they tell of the life and activities at the school. Y. M. C. A. HANDBOOK At the beginning of the Fall Term each boy receives a book sometimes called the New Boy's Bible but which is really the Y. M. C. A. Handbook, which contains a brief resume of the school activities, directors, history of the surrounding country, songs, and cheers. This book, published by Mr. Daniel Heefner and Mr. Milo A. Gibson, is carefully studied by all new boys more than any other book at the opening of school. 14-1 Concert Band Practice Cvlcc Club Rehearsal Assembly Orchestra Chapel Choir MUSIC CHL?-JDlI'9E H0033 One of Mercersburg Academy's finest musical organizations is the Chapel Choir, composed of voices carefully chosen by the organist and choirmaster, Mr. George F. Hamer, Jr. Inspiring everyone present and putting them into a beneficial attitude of mind, a Sunday service starts wich the stately, impressive processional, led by the Cross, and parted by the American flag. The full beauty of the Choir is not realized until the recessional, when they sing the last verse of the hymn in the ante-chamber. There the Choir alone sings, and the distance adds enchantment to the music of the voices. The boys are organized, according to their voices, into four groups: first and second tenor and Hrst and second bass. The Choir must continually be in practice, learning new hymns and anthems. Mr. Hamer and every member of the Choir deserve much credit for their faithful work and remarkable accomplishments.

In the absence of the former head of the music department, Mr. Henry Ready, who is now serving with the armed forces, Mr. Gordon Adams, a new member of the faculty, very capably directed the band and presented many interesting programs. The band played at each pep-rally and every home game of the varsity football team's schedule. In adding zest to the cheers and school songs, the band contributed much in establishing and maintaining fine school spirit during the Fall Term.

The spirit exhibited by the student body was the grandest and most spontaneous that has been seen at Mercersburg for several years. This year's squad was made up of many old boys, who had had former football experience, but quite a few new boys earned positions on the team. All of the boys showed wonderful teamwork and spirit when on the field. A fine team was moulded by each person's abilities being discovered and perfected by Mr. Frederick R. Kuhn and Mr. Thomas R. Smith. The season was opened on October 7 when the Kuhnmen clashed with Bullis School of Silver Springs, Maryland. Although Mercersburg fought a hard battle, they fought a losing one. The final score was 34-7. The results of the game had been indicated at the very beginning of the game. Bullis received on the kickoff and by the next few plays had earned a touchdown and an extra point. Their other scores were distributed First lluw. I.:-ft to Right- Mr. T. Smith. lfxunst. Slnltz.

The greatest thrill of the game was Diehl's pass to Hughes, who ran into the end zone for a score. True to form, Schaeffer kicked the extra point. For the second game, on October 14, Mercersburg traveled to Saltsburg, Pennsyl- vania, to play Kiski School. Being accustomed to neither a muddy field nor the Tn formation, from which Kiski worked all their plays, the Blue and Whites were at a disadvantage. By passing, Kiski gained the yardage necessary for their scores, the final result being 12-0. The fine defensive ability and spirit of the Kuhnmen were shown as Kiski was held on the goal line three times without being able to score. Diehl, as usual, was hitting the line hard, but was unable to gain much yardage because of poor blocking. Mercersburg's first victory of the season was on October 21, when the Devitt School, of Washington, D. C., was defeated at Mercersburg. Thrills came thick and fast as the Blue and Whites scored four touchdowns and two extra points. During the first quarter Captain Diehl ran over 45 yards for a score. The next two touchdowns were made by Wisotzkey, and then Diehl again scored. Hughes and Schaeffer made the extra points. Bateman played an excellent game as did Scott and Irvin. October 27 marked the day for the second game between Mercersburg and Kiski, this time on the former's home field. The day was cold and wet, which made pass receiving difficult. As a result, nine of Mercersburg's passes were incompleted and three were intercepted. The Kiski eleven repeated their performance of the first time, by defeating the Blue and Whites, 13-0. The thrill of the day occurred as Smith tossed a high pass to Hughes, who immediately lateralled to Diehl. Diehl ran for twenty-two yards before being stopped. While the more fortunate students were enjoying a week-end, the varsity played its fifth game of the season on November 4. Their opponent at this time was Camp Detrick, Frederick, Maryland. The Kuhnmen were unable to turn losing tide of the previous week. The Hnal score was 13-6. During this game Mercersburg played an exceptional brand of football. By passing, the Blue and Whites brought the ball into scoring territory. .The touchdown was made as Irvin's pass to Langfitt in the end zone was completed. During the second quarter the Blue and Whites staged an excellent exhibition of defensive football by holding the soldiers for four downs when it was ten and goal to go for them. This action brought the stands to their feet. Mercersburg's second win of the season took place at Valley Forge as the Kuhnmen triumphed over Valley Forge Military Academy on November 11 by a score of 7-0. Diehl, by intercepting a pass, set his team in the scoring territory. During the next few plays Mercersburg scored a touchdown. A pass from Smith to Elliot added another point to the score. A second touchdown made by Diehl was not counted since he fum- bled the ball when over the goal line. Taking over for Irvin, who was not able to play because of injuries, Scott performed an excellent job of punting. The last and probably the hardest fought game took place on November 18, as Mercersburg played their greatest rivals, Staunton, at Staunton, Virginia. Although the Mercersburg eleven fought bitterly, they were unable to check the drives made into scoring territory by the Staunton team. The final score was 25-6 in favor of Staunton. Mercersburg's touchdown was made during the third quarter as Irvin completed a pass to Hughes. Hughes lareralled to Rayner, who galloped 28 yards to cross the goal stripe. 155 MYWEE QQTIGQ RICHARD T.

This is the third successive year that the matmen have annexed this title. The wrestling team started the season by succumbing to the powerful Lancaster High School wrestlers by the score of 42 to 5.

For the second tournament of the season the Mercersburg grapplers met an inex- perienced Waynesboro High School team on the home mats. Winning seven decisions and three falls the Academy matmen downed the Waynesboro team by the score of 41 to 0. Calby, Stainsby, and Nesbit were able to pin their men while the remaining members managed to Win by decisions. In the third struggle a strong Bedford High School team downed the Academy squad by the score of 32 to 11. Calby was the Mercersburg wrestler to win by a fall, but the most unusual exhibition was the bout between Nesbit, of Mercersburg, and Hershberger, of Bedford. Although Nesbit was Wrestling forty pounds over his weight, he managed to defeat his opponent. Tavares also was able to win a close decision over his man. Again, on February 9, the Mercersburg matmen scored a sure defeat over the Waynesboro team with 32 to 8. Furnishing one of the most interesting matches of the meet was Browning, of Mercersburg, who pinned his opponent in 2 minutes and 30 seconds in the third period. Browning, Lear, and Calby won. their matches by falls. Fighting a hard but losing battle the Mercersburg grapplers were overwhelmed by an older and more experienced Plebe team. The score of this match against the undefeated opponents was 36 to 0. Browning gave the closest match of the afternoon by coming out on the short end of a 9 to 8 decision. Winning three decisions and taking one forfeit the team went down to defeat at the hands of West York High School, February 24, by the score of 24-14. As a fitting climax to a very successful season the Mercersburg Wrestling team won the Tenth Annual Preparatory School Wrestling Championships held at Lehigh Univer- sity on March 3 by the score of 30 points. The Academy team surprised even the coach because of the number of boys that have not wrestled before this year who did remarkably well. In the end it came out with three interscholastic championships. Those winning first place were: Spragg, in the 121-pound classg Tavares, who wrestled in the 136-pound class, and Nesbit, who Won laurels in the 145-pound class. This is the third year in succession that the Mercersburg teams have been victorious in this event. This year they edged out Gilman which had 25 points and Brooklyn Poly which received 15 points. Seven out of the eight Mercersburg contestants placed with a third or better. The final meet was at Kiski which Mercersburg won, 20-8. The meet was in doubt till the 165-pound event in which Lemmerman pinned his man in 1 minute, 5 3 seconds. 165 FWUEIINHTTDUNG NVILLXAM K. Rocker - Capfain Mk. HOWARD L. CANOUNIE - - - Coach Roslin A.

S. in the Academy pool, but the York team reversed the results by winning the return-meet at York on January 10 to tune of 37-29. Nearly a month passed before the team was again in dual competition, due to war restriction on travel, but February 9 Baltimore Polytechnic School lost at home by 46-20. The next day the Navy Plebes won 41-27, but in this meet the team hit its high spot of the season. As happened in so many meets the final result hinged on one of the relays. This time the loss of the 200-yard relay resulted in defeat. The next week at Lawrenceville the loss of the medley relay resulted in 38-28 defeat. Lawrenceville repeated this to win the Trenton championships March 9 by score of 41 to Mercersburg 33. Bullis lost at Mercersburg on February 22 by score of 54-12, and Staunton on February 24 lost by score of 42-24. Sohl won every breaststroke race, and Moss who transferred from backstroke to 220 free style, won every one of his races. Barker, Captain Rockey, and French accounted for their share of the points won, and to each member of the team must go credit for hard work and dependable performance in a schedule of uncertain war-time meets.

For thirteen years Dr. and Mrs. Edwards carried on the great challenge of their friends, Dr. and Mrs. Irvine. They gave to Mercersburg of a richness of lives in church and school work. They sought to uphold at all times the standards of the school, and Mercersburg possessed a richer and more beautiful tone because they served the school and her sons so well. Dr. Edwards would be the last one to have his passing a great sorrow, but rather, as he always spoke, he would have those who knew him, loved and honored him, rejoice in whatever of strength and en- couragement and beauty he might have by word and deed brought into another's life. As Mercersburg's second Head Master, he gave of his best. His ability as a speaker brought him universal acclaim in college and school circles as one of the most outstanding preachers of his generation. In this simple tribute the KARUX, in behalf of his school and his boys, pays heartfelt honor which shall always go on and on as long as men shall speak the name of The Mercersburg Academy. 175 EVE TS SUMMER SESSION Mercersburg Academy held the second summer session in the history of the Academy from june 21 to August 29 with a total enrollment of 100 boys. Diplomas were awarded to seventeen members of the session, boys who had been able to accelerate their college preparation and in nearly all cases were able to enter college in the fall. Regular assembly was held on Mondays, Wednesdzlys and Fridays, Chapel services at different times with the Complin Service the night before graduation. Mr. James G. Moyer spoke to the class. The morning of graduation the seniors, led by Dr. Tippetts and Byron E. Chapman, Jr., president of the class, marched from the porch of North Cottage to the section of the lawn between North and Main Hall. There were the guests and members of the faculty. In behalf of the mothers Mrs. James I. Marsh, mother of one of the graduates, presented Mrs. Tippetts at August Luncheon 176 Mrs. Marsh Presents Gift of Mothers a sum of money to be added to the Chapel Flower Fund as a token of appreciation of the mothers to the school. Dr. Tippetts briefly addressed the group before presenting the diplomas, in which he was assisted by Mr. James G. Miller, registrar. After the exercises Mrs. Tippetts was hostess to the class and guests at luncheon. FALL TERM Opening with a full school of 411 boys, Dr. Tippetts challenged the group at the opening exercises in the Academy Chapel to a fuller grasping of their opportunities in the year ahead. The enrollment came from 27 states and 4 foreign countries with a large number of boys turned away for one reason or another. For the first time since early in the thirties the Colonial Cottage on Church Street was opened to house members of the school. In his opening address the Head Master said in part: Some day the boys who are in this chapel this afternoon, will have a part in settling the great problems that will arise following the war. In my opinion the greatest of these problems will be the prevention of the next war. Everything else is secondary in importance. There can be no economic or social stability in this or any other country so long as the threat of war remains. It is useless to try to find a permanent answer to our domestic troubles if once during every generation our boys must go forth to war. FIELD DAY The outstanding fall event on the school calendar in the past years has always been the annual Field Day. This year, the fifty-second Field Day, due to restriction imposed by the war, in the festivities lacked some of their former color. Although the day of the track meet was quite cold, there were approximately 150 entries in the co itests, and many parents were present to witness the 11 events of the day. The 177 i 4 Williams Cup competition, by far the most important event of the afternoon, from the standpoint of athletics, was won by Austin Brisbane, who scored 20 points, Robert Black was the second place winner with 19 points, and Peter Schaper taking third place with 15 points. Other winners included William Brumbach in the 60-yard dash, Robert Black in the 100-yard dash, Jordan Bayless in the 120 low hurdles, Kaye Vinson in the 300-yard run, Jonathan Woods in the mile run, Peter Muhlenberg in the shot put, Peter Schaper in the javelin throw, Jordan Bayless in the pole vault, Micheal DeArmond in the high jump and Robert Black in the running broad jump. In the evening the Williams Cup was presented to its winner while the Cup-awards for the fall tennis tournament were presented at the same time. The winners in these events were Benjamin Sirota in the singles, while Benjamin Sirota teamed with Charles Weiss to win the doubles. CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES The Mercersburg Academy closed for the Fall Term on Thursday, December 14, with the departure of the Queen of the Valley for Harrisburg, and of her passengers to all points of the compass. Many outstanding events preceded the first day of vaca- tion first of which was the candle light service held in the Chapel on Sunday, December 10. The Chapel was decorated in the holiday spirit by the Chapel Ushers with Hr- boughs, poinsettas, and candles placed in every conceivable place. This service was in keeping with tradition, one of the most beautiful in the school year, being highlighted by the music of the carillon and the organ and the singing of the choir. The Christmas story was read by Dr. Charles S. Tippetts. On Monday night the long awaited candle light dinner was held in Keil Hall. The dining hall was appropriately decorated and presented a very impressive sight. The 1 .... 1 EL. .... .. Bayless Wins Hurdles 178 Friedman Making Presentation Gift to Barr highlights of this occasion were the singing of carols by the entire group and the presentation of the Aurelian Cup to Edward M. Irvin, of Big Run, Pa. Two plays were presented on Wednesday night, December 14, by the Stony Batter Dramatic Club under the direction of Mr. Pratt L. Tobey, faculty adviser. The first play, The Bishop's Candlesticks, taken from Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, was a tense, moving drama of a man's struggle with his soul that has been terribly warped by many years of prison. The Pot Boiler, the second production, was a plain farce complete with lily-white heroine, black-hearted villain, lurking vampire, and spotless hero. These plays kept up the tradition of having an excellent production during the Christmas Festivities started in 1942. On Thursday, December 14, at nine o'clock in the morning the Queen made its slow journey to Harrisburg carrying many boys who will not soon forget the various programs they enjoyed during that holiday season. JANUARY COMMENCEMENT The January seniors were the guests of Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts for dinner at North Cottage on Friday, January 26. Class Day Exercises were held the next day in the Assembly Hall, followed by a buffet dinner for all guests and members of the school. A formal dance was held in Traylor Hall that evening for all seniors. On Sunday morning Chaplain M. M. Witherspoon, USN, preached the baccalaureate sermon. Later in the day there was an organ and Carillon recital given by Mr. George F. Hamer and Mr. Bryan Baker. Coffee was served to the graduating class that evening in North Cottage, followed by a complin service in the Chapel. Climaxing the commencement activities was the graduation held Monday, January 28. Thirty members of the class were awarded their diplomas by Dr. Tippetts in the 179 Chapel. Hale Andrews gave the Valedictory, and Matthew Holiday the Salutatory. Dunning Idle, William Hagel, Bruce Greenheld, and Joseph Kemp also spoke. Hale Andrews, Matthew Holiday, William Hagel, Bruce Greenfield, and Thomas Langfitt were initiated into the Cum Laude Society. DECLAMATION CONTEST The One Hundredth Annual Declamat-ion Contest was held in the Assembly Hall on January 26. Williain Hagel took first prize for his delivery of 1'Message From Sub- marine Overduef' by Win Brooks. Second prize went to Harry Williams for his pres- entation of Poeis The Murderer,s Confession. Winston Churchill's Dunkirk', took third prize for James Maxwell. MID-WINTER FESTIVITIES The annual events connected with the Intersociety Debate took place this year from February 22 to February 25. The first event was the fine production of The Royal Family by the Stony Batter Club in the Carl Lewis Nolde Memorial Gymnasium. Harry Williams as Anthony Cavendish,', and James Maxwell as Julie Cavendish took the leads in the production. In the intersociety athletic events next day Marshall won both events, scoring 34-23 in the swimming meet and 26-23 in the basketball game. The annual dance which was to have been held that night was cancelled on account of scarlet fever at the neighbor- ing girls' school from where the larger number of guests was invited. The next day the wrestlers lost to West York H. S. 24-14, and in the afternoon the varsity swimmers won 42-24 from the Staunton Military Academy in the pool of the Gymnasium. Hagel Reading Wisotzkey's Class History 180 Scene from The Royal Family Saturday night at 8:00 P. M., the two societies and guests reassembled at the Gym- nasium for the Fifty-first Annual lntersociety Debate. Marshall won the debate, and James Maxwell of the Marshall Society was judged Best Speaker. The Head Master presided over the debate which, because of war restrictions on decorations, streamers, etc., was deprived of much of the traditional color associated with the event. The Chapel guest preacher on Sunday was Dr. Williilna E. Abernethy, of Washizigton, D. C., long a very popular Chapel speaker. l Mid-winter Debaters and Head Master 181 HERE HND THERE WHAT THE SENIOR CLASS THINKS OF THE MEMBERS QOnly Four Highest Are Givenj Most Popular: E. M.

There are many great reasons why you should not cash in your Bonds before they mature-before they pay you back S4 for every S3 you've invested. The iirstgand greatest-reason is that you are an American, and you have pledged yourself to back American fighting men with World all your strength, courage and character. The second greatest reason is that by cash- ing in Bonds you may be risking the future of your children. For the War Bonds you keep today can spell the security of your child's tomorrow. Don't depend on tomorrow to take care of itself. Remember-no job is as sure as your Bond. Don't cash in a single one be- fore its time.
