F REW RDS This Fifty-fourth Volume of the KARUX seeks to portray the varied life of a great Ameri- can school dedicated to Hard Work, Clean Life, and Fair Play. With this school motto in mind the Yearbook Board has chosen its art motif from the carved oak mantel in the dining room in Keil Hall. The central carving of the Boar Hunt has been used to symbolize manly sportg the oak leaves in the carving stand for sturdiness of char- acter and the sunflower for constancy, While the shield device represents chivalrous qualities. Strength, Constancy, and Chivalry in all phases of school life are outstanding qualities of Mer- cersburg boys. f ,am F 5 J, tt s L :r g J L 66 :11 ,L tt A I em fi' FQ fe l 'Fi l fa ts 'wi l KZ' CQ x -Q -Q TE SS DEDICATION BOOK III ACTIVITIES Organizations Publications BOOK I Musical Groups Athletics ADMINISTRATION VIEWS BOOK IV EVENTS BUILDING FUND BOOK H HERE AND THERE CLASSES ADVERTISEMENTS e e 1 e e , 4, I 'Null ills ' I as W 'fly W I' J 1 N 5 f QQ! f 55 lx! f QQ5 f i ' 94 I 4.-, Quill ds l ,E l so Q 'Qs , IQ DEDI ATI A I To DANIEL HEEFNER The Senior Class Affectionately and Gratefully Dedicates i THE FIFTY-FOURTH KARUX in Recognition of Loyal and Faithful Service to THE MERCERSBURG ACADEMY for Twenty-five Years Native of Waynesboro, Pa., University of Pennsylvania, Served iniiEngland and France in the American Expeditionary Force during World War 1.5 Contributor to Dictionary of American Biography, author From Meaux to Compiegne and A Great Educatorgv Editor The Mercersburg Academy Alumni Quarterly, Member The American Alumni Council, Secretary-Treasurer, Alumni Living Endowment Fundg Facul- ty Adviser, The KARUX, 1930-19363 honorary member Class of 1931, Mercersburgg member Academy Board of Regents, 1936-19405 Registrar for Selective Service since 19423 Secre- tary, Alumni Association continuously since 19245 at Mercers- burg since 1922.

In his con- duct of the financial affairs of the Academy through all the stresses and strains of her growth Mr. John Milton Drumm adhered faithfully to the school motto, Hard Work, Clean Life, Fair Play. , Mr. Drumm retired on October 15, 1946. At the meeting of the Alumni at dinner on October 12 he stated that after his family his love for Mercers- burg came first. Mr. Drumm, who came to Mercersburg in 1900 as secretary to Dr. Irvine after answering an ad in a Philadelphia paper, became Treasurer of the Acad- emy in 1905. This position he held until his retirement. When he re- ceived this appointment, he was also elected Secretary to the Board of Re- gents, and in 1941 he was elected a member of the Board. A graduate of the first Pennsylvania State Normal School at Millersville in 1897, he taught in the public school system of Pennsylvania. In 1898 he entered Pennsylvania Business College, later taking a position in Philadelphia. Mr. Drumm has had a notable career in the town of Mercersburg, where he took an active part in the work of the Reformed Church, the Public School Board, and the Farmers' Bank. He was prominent in the affairs of the Associa- tion of Business Officers of Preparatory Schools and an honorary member of the Mercersburg class of 1938. At its February meeting the Board of Regents paid high tribute to Mr. Drumm's service. The Board of the KARUX wishes John Milton Drumm many happy years and hopes that he will enjoy the richly deserved leisure which has come to him. 6 v 6 v 6 '-f:.f?f3f5 1' ' ' 6 v ...

Of the twenty-five graduates three have seen active duty in the armed forces during the disastrous conflict which came to an end just a year ago this month, and some will still have to look forward to a period of military training. Upon leaving Mercersburg, however, this class enters into a peaceful world, the job no longer being to fight a war but to keep the world at peace. The teachings and memories that we take from Mercersburg will prove invaluable to us in the future. We shall be ever grateful to the members of the faculty, whose patience and guidance have made it possible for us to grad- uate. We shall never forget the help and kindness of Dean Andrew, our faculty adviser, nor the delightful hospitality shown us by Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts on Monday evenings, on Sunday evenings, and on other occasions, especially when we were gathered in the beautiful garden east of North Cottage. Although we are just twenty-five, we have excelled in the extracurricu- lar activities with pride. The Senate, the honorary language clubs, the varsity athletic teams, and the debating societies reveal but a few of our accomplish- ments. In all respects our class has upheld the tradition of partaking in the ways of campus life that has been so well set by those who passed through this institution before us. In this summer session ours has been the enjoyment of informality. We have been allowed to dress sensibly and sanely on warm days. What a relief to be let go downtown so freely! When shall we forget our being permitted, between halves of two-hour periods, to gather on the back campus for a hasty smoke and convivial chat? Then, too, we have applied ourselves, doors open on our halls on warm nights, even more diligently than during the year. Great has been our exhiliration derived from knowing that we are not to leave here depressed by the horrible anticipation of exposure to the sacrifice exacted by war. Each of us has his own individual plan to follow in the future. That course will be less difiicult because we who leave Mercersburg cannot help taking with us her spirit and her ideals, thus enabled better to find our place in this democracy of ours. WILLIAM V.

We leave Mercersburg for our homes in nineteen states, the District of Columbia, and two foreign countries with the motto, Clean Life, Hard Work, and Fair Playf' so deeply engraved on our minds that we will never forget it. The Class of 1947 is one of the largest senior classes to be graduated from Mercers- burg, and our record is just as impressive as our size. No team, society, publication, or club, lacked the enthusiastic support and participation of the class. Not only were we active in the many extracurricular activities that may be found on this campus, but we also maintained one of the highest' scholastic averages in the history of the school. The veterans of the Second World War were a very strong and leading group in our class. Two of their number were elected to the offices of President and Secretary. During our stay here we have enjoyed ourselves very much by participating in or watching the various athletic and social events such as football games, debates, and dances. We had fun making new friends and finding out how to get along with people. These are the things we shall miss most because they are the things we liked most while we were here. We leave our school filled with feelings of confidence' and regret. We feel confident because of the excellent training and foundation we received here. We go forth to greater responsibilities, confident that we shall be equal to the task before us. We feel regret because of the friends whom we are leaving here, few of whom we shall ever see again. To the faculty we owe a debt which can never be repaid, because there is no price on knowledge. We shall ever be grateful to them. . To Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts, for their hospitality and great interest in us, we wish to express our deepest and most sincere thanks. Class of 1948, it is your job to carry on where we have left off. Uphold the honors and traditions of this school so that each of you may say with pride, I am a Mercersburg boy!! GEORGE L. COHILL, Historian. ' E? '- -' 2 ' ' .

'S N li l It 'o F5.f5'b 291 'b 315' 1 5 to 48 Head Nlastefs Valedictory TO THE CLASS OF 1947: A hundred years and more it was ago, That boys like you first came to this green hill, To work and play where near-by mountains roll Since those first days when everything was still. Like you, they saw the flowers of summer pass. They saw the colors deepen here and there, The dead leaves fall, and snow come drifting down 'Til only pine and hemlock were not bare. And then, the beauty of the springtime came. They heard the robins and the bluebirds sing. They saw the lilacs and the dogwood bloom, And all the loveliness that summers bring. Year after year, as new boys came and went Until you, too, were here in this long file. But soon you, too, will go and others come Who in their turn will only stay awhile. But, in a way, you do not go from here, For every boy leaves something here behind, Something that lingers after he is gone, Something that lingers on in every mind. Perhaps, at midnight, in these darkened halls The boys who once were here come back and play. They tap upon the doors where once they slept, These forms and Hgures of another day. They studied once just where you study nowg On these same chairs, they sat with worried brow. They found it hard to get their problems right- The same old problems that you had last night. Boy after boy, as years so swiftly passg Boy after boy, and now it is your class That leaves us, just as others left before. Will you come back, and tap upon the door? And so you go, but still you stay behind, For something that you left here will be ours To make us think of you, to hope you'll find Long years of usefulness and happy hours. -CHARLES S. TIPPE'rTs.

Of course, some of us will not come back-to them we bid a fond farewell and wish them the best of everything, those of our number who are to return, however, must bear in mind that we have been endowed with a great heritage by the senior classes of the past. May we be worthy of this and succeed in our striving to fill the places vacated by our predecessors! Our list of activities, as compared with that of the graduating class, proved during the year to be a record that we hope will be cherished by us and admired by our fellow students at Mercersburg. In all, it is safe to state that che Upper Middler class of 1947 has in all ways upheld the tradition of participation in all walks of school life which those who have gone before us have so well established. It is unlikely that one would mention the subject of Mercersburg athletics without indicating that a great deal of credit for superiority in this field is due to invaluable sup- port given by members of our class. Looking back on the gridiron play of 1946, we find that nine of our number were members of the stalwart Varsity squad which compiled such an admirable record this fall, while the Junior Varsity and Spider elevens were almost wholly comprised of our classmates. Turning to the field of winter sports, we discover that not only at many a wrestling match could our class boast of being exceed- ingly well represented but also on the basketball floor could be seen several of our mem- bers battling for the glory of the'Blue and White. On the track and swimming teams, and, in the spring, on the baseball squad, our class was equally well represented. Glaneing over the records, We find it quite evident that our achievements have not been confined to the field of athletics. Our classmates were prominent figures in practi- cally all of the honor organizations on the campus-the language and science clubs. Two from our number held coveted positions on the Senate. On examining the High Honor Roll, one finds it not at all diiiicult to comprehend what a great part we have played in maintaining the high scholastic record of this institution. Leaving the scholastic phase of school life behind, one is astonished to note the num- ber of Upper Middlers who have played important roles in extracurricular activity about Mercersburg. The News, THE KARUX, and The Lit, which represent the student publi- cations, are all well supplied with and supported by members of our class.. The various musical organizations, The Glee Club, The Choir, and the Blue and White Melodians, have all received our able support. Surely, it is obvious even to the most dubious on- looker that the men of next year's graduating class, through their participation in all phases of school life, have been more than a credit to the Academy. With firm determination to do our best we have striven, thusfar, to uphold the tra- ditions and standards of our beloved institution, and with such an auspicious start and with such progress already attained we shall attempt to continue along these lines. . . . . 5 Nothing should stop us from becoming one of the truly great classes in the history ofthe Mercersburg Academy. May it be so! , STEWART E. PURSEL, Hixlorian. -A --:' slr e'-e xJ,r nlf a'r x' 1 'fi' fr yiwj 'P tr juli! 'ii fr e 'ii fr Null!

However, this situation did not hinder its members from making quite a creditable record both in scholar- ship and extracurricular activities. The class average steadily rose and at no time dropped below the starting point-a very commendable accomplishment, considering that half the class was made up of new boys unfamiliar with the customs of Mercersburg. Lower Middlers were always found on the High Honor Roll, and not infrequently one Lower Middler held the highest general average in the academy. Lower Middlers were Very interested in sports this year and were found on the second and third football squads, the fall and winter track teams, the Junior Varsity basketball squad, and the wrestling team. While they did not always gain positions on the first teams, they did gain valu- able experience which they will put to good use in the next few years. Those who were not athletes or did not play gave the different teams splen- did support from the sidelines. However, athletics was not the only interest. The different hobby clubs such as the Radio, Stamp, and Gun Clubs contained members of our class. The Choir, Glee Club, and Concert Band contained Lower Mid- dlers along with the other musical organizations. The class also was rep- resented in the various honorary language clubs, especially the Laticlavii. The Lower Middlers hope that in the years to come they can continue to live up to the high standards maintained this year because if they do, they need not worry about succeeding in life. In any case they know that they will never forget Mercersburg and all she has done for them. JOHN A.

In this way the responsibility for the success of the meeting is more widely distributed and more bene- iit is derived by each member.

Under the direction of Mr. Grey H. Wfyman, its founder, the Latin Club has been invaluable in the Creating of further interest in the field of Latin. The Latin Club in 1940 assumed a new name, Laticlavii, which was the name of a distinguished group of Roman nobles who were privileged to wear a wide purple stripe on their togas. Monthly meetings are held, which include some form of entertainment provided by the members. The Hnal meeting is held at a downtown restaurant, when a dinner is enjoyed by all.

A., whose activi- ties are carried out under the leadership of the Cabinet, Mr. Milo Gibson being the chief adviser. Nearly the entire enrollment of the Academy belongs to this organization, and all the members receive the advantages which the national Y. M. C. A. affords. There are biweekly assemblies, at which time motion pictures are shown. Each Sunday the officers go to Mount Pleasant Village where they hold religious scr- vices. Later in the year a collection of old clothes for these people is made. These activ- ities uphold the standard of worthy service to school and community set forth by The National Organization.

Staley. The ushers were nominated in the spring of 1946 by the outgoing staff, and final mem- bers were chosen by Mr. Chapman this fall. The ushers not only seat visitors, but also decorate the Chapel for the Christmas, Complin, and Baccalaureate Services and other events, and collect the offering at the Chapel on Sunday.

These young philatelists hold weekly auctions under the direction of Mr. B. Frank Kulp, who organized the club in 1936. The club has gained in popularity until this year it has 15 members. There is great interest in First-Day Covers and rare and valuable stamps. The experience that these boys receive in this organization will in later years prove advantageous should they continue this fascinating hobby. O1-'tflciaks VVILIIAM -I. Poi.oN - , - .

Sebring, Siiaiiw, Dance Committee Ifive boys were appointed to the Dance Committee this year by the Faculty Adviser, Mr. Iirnest A. Staley. Ifor the first time in five years this group was able to make plans for the school dances without any curtailment. Last year, through the efforts of many people, the School was honored with the presence of Dean Hudson's Band for the Hnal dance in May, which was held in Keil Hall. This year at the time this book went to Press the proposal for a name band was again to the fore. Many other dances, such as the Midwinter, Christmas, and Fall Tea Dances, provided enjoyment for the students under the direction of this Committee. All these duties and this work were borne b the Dance Committee, who receive Y the Thanks of the entire School. Olfiflcims Romam' A. Comm, - Clfldiflllllll ERNEST A. S'i'A1.iav M1iMBlilKS John H.

Its found- ing has given the members of the Senior Class a comfortable lounge where they may re- lax, enjoy a cigarette, and listen to the radio. Wheia the club was first established in the basement of South Cottage, the Seniors found little more than the bare walls, but since that time the club room has been furnished with attractive, comfortable chairs, curtains, and a fine radio. This organization, through its desire to show that it can aeeept responsibility, has demonstrated that the student body can co-operate when the opportunity is presented.

Standing for tlie liigliest ideals of a Nlereersburg boy by tlie motto Clean I.ife, Hard Nvork, and Ifair Play, Irving can be justly proud of its record of winning twenty-tliree out ol' forty-five debates since 1901 and its attaining of tlie Best Speaker Award twenty-one times. Altliougli tlie llolin Nlarsliall Society was founded a year later, in 1866, it did not liurnisli competition for tlie annual debate, wlwicll is tlie largest single event of tlie year, until 1901. Irving admires tlie ex er loyal support received from all lier members and tlie teams tliat upliold lier. Slie can boast of an Iionest, clean record of manliness maintained tlirougli tlie years. Alumni of tlie scliool wlio liave been members of tlie Irving teams in previous years liave greatly praised the value of tlie debating team to tliem. Nlr. Cirey H. XVym.1n, wlio lias been Irving's Iiaeulty Adviser since 19-IZ, is to be congratulated on liis patience. Iteenness, and entliusiasm, wliieli have prevailed tlirougliout tlie year. 136 lfirxl Ilmx.

The Karux Once again the annual of The Mercersburg Academy has emerged from the Colum- bia Interscholastic Press Association competition with a flrst-place award. Scoring 950 out of a possible 1000 points, the KARUX has stood in first position for the past nine years. These awards are received in recognition for the high type of work represented in the book and are won on a competitive basis in which the entire prep-school division partici- pates. From a list of twenty-six candidates, some of whom began working during the sum- mer session, the work was carried on with great co-operation from all concerned, in spite of the fact that all copy this year was due in the hands of the printer at an earlier date than in previous years. From the original list an appointment of twenty-two boys was made. Ol IfICERS IJANIFI, I.. Mll.I.I1R - MARs1xALL H. ROBIili'l'S, JR. RICHARD L. VFRKOUTliliI'N RoB1zRT STALLY - MR. ROBERT R. BLACK MR.

The lVTercerS urg News Comprising a lasting record of Mercersburg life, scholastic, social, and athletic, the Mercersburg News contains all events which take place during the school year. Be- cause of the efforts of Mr. Bryan Barker, Editorial Adviser, and Mr. Robert R. Black. Business Adviser, the Q'News has been oustanding in its work and a success for many years. The year witnessed another capable Editor-in-Chief, Robert Brush, who developed the paper farther along the lines of sound journalism, which is shown by the excellent composition of the articles. Also to he complimented are William Kanenson and Sedg- wick Byron, Associate Editorsg Sports Editors John Preston and Walter Spragg, and Charles Thomas, Business Manager. Credit is also due to the reporters, business staff and associates, photographers, car- toonists, and all others who contributed their aid, without whose work the publication would have been impossible. The winning of the All American Honor Rating for seven years and the Medalist Certificate of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association for eight years shows the merits of the News.,' T '.',L,7.iffYff 'f ' fl ii ' '- 57:'??17?K ' 'W 'Nfnfiwikrfil-R.

It is published each Fall Term under the direction of Mr. David F. Chapman. It has proved a success with the students and 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. 9 ALUMNI QUARTERLYH The Alumni Quarterly published four times a year under the leadership of Mr. Daniel Heefner, the Alumni Secretary, is the vital means by which the school is 'able to keep in contact with over seven thousand alumni of the Academy. Accounts of imporr tant events at Mercersburg, the activity of the ,Head Master and faculty, and the ad- vancements of the alumni are recorded in the pages of the' publication. 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. ' O Y. M. C. A. HANDBOOK At the beginning of the Fall Term each boy receives a book, sometimes called the New Boy's Bible, which is really the Y. M. C. A. Handbook, and contains a brief resume of the school activities, directors, history of the surrounding country, songs, and cheers. This book is put out by Mr. Milo A. Gibson and Mr. Daniel Heefner and is carefully studied by all the new boys. rs fi FQ fe l fe l 'f l fs is 151 , x M may fX,' , .W 'u f ,, I, 1 'mf' Aviv illwir Rclw.xrx.1l liluc .md Nylmilus .mx C1l1rixlnms Dance XY'umIwiml 'I rin .11 SIIILICUI Rcciml j 1 I 1 X XM, , l U MUSIC ,.

NV, ll, llill'I'lS, Chapel Choir Undoubtedly the most impressive building of the Mercersburg Academy is the beau- tiful Gothic Chapel. The Chapel Choir, under the direction of organist and choirmaster, Mr. George lf. Hamer, Jr., adds much dignity to the inspiring services held in the Chapel. lt is a great honor to be a member of this organization, since the group is selected through stiff competition. The choir sings anthems, both ancient and modern, during the Offertory. The Processional begins in the Nnrthex, the Crucifier leading the chor- isters. A second group led by a Flag Bearer includes the Guest Preacher and the Head Master. At the end of the Recessional the Choir can be heard singing thc last verse of the hymn in the ante-chamber. This singing in the distance adds a final touch of enchant- ment to the service. .X , ,. ....,.. .QI , 1..1. 1 V W' , sl' 2 ,A f , 2d Q2 3 ' e rn fsfa effdm ffwg if ' i ffg 'ffff' 2 ry? ff, fg2':l '19 ff' , 'fi wi , 'fp K Nf'n,f ,X 'N' ' 9 ,N il' -' , , MX' -, ,xN' iw QLD fi KQPQJJ in Mew : we! a re io '--w ww f 154 Chapel Choir ROBERT P.

The Music Department, headed by Mr. Henry Ready, includes three vocal organizations, the Chapel Choir, the Glee Club, which renders concerts both at Mercersburg and at nearby schools, and the Octet, com- posed of eight of the best voices of the Academy. Instrumental groups include the Foot- ball Band, noted for its Hne showing in the fall, the Concert Band, and the Blue and White Melodians, the school dance band, noted for their popular song stylings. Every Sunday morning the well-known Academy Choir, under the direction of Mr. George Hamer, school organist, sings a Hne anthem as part of the Sunday service. Their performance at the Christmas Candlelight Service makes it a truly memorable event. The Carillon, played by Mr. Bryan Barker, contains forty-three bells and was among the first to be played in this country. Group singing, as led by Mr. Lucian Bareham, is very frequent and popular. It is highlighted by the Steps Songs, which take place in June during the last week of school. i ' A g ,i-1.1 , .7-i,g55.I,g-1, h A ' 'E i gtqg,:5j.3 1 W 3 7 l lie' - k,,,'?,f.N ,.-H i '--l -7 fb:--fe, X 3 f i H E, f' X .5153 x ll f N r rs ' 'W fi X --:mi ?' :W N w.

Varsity Club Instituted and approved last spring by the Faculty, the Varsity Club was formed from the Varsity letter holders of the Academy with the purpose of furthering interest, spirit, and the intensification of athletics at Mercersburg. Boys eligible for membership are those who have won a Varsity MU in a major sport. The presentation of an award in the form of a trophy to the Outstanding Athlete of the Year, the proper reception of visiting teams, the conducting of pep rallies, and the intensifying of school spirit are a few of the Varsity Club projects. The Marshals of the Field are now under Varsity Club supervision. Early in the spring of '46 the idea for the Club was put into effect by the drawing up of a constitution and the submission of it to the Head Master for Faculty approval. Then a meeting of all Varsity lettermen was called, and the facts and ideas concerning the Club were put before them. The initial elections were held a few days later, and a president, vice president, and secretary were elected. Next, a council of members to manage the affairs of the Club was formed from the captains of the various teams. If there was no captain, a representative was elected by the respective teammates. The Varsity Club, Mercersburg's youngest organization, is doing a fine job in carry- ing out its projects and has all the prospects for an outstanding future. 166 President - - Vice President - Secretary - - Football - Swimming - Wrestling Basketball - Track - Baseball William H.

Kempton to his former head coaching position, interrupted by naval service, the Mercersburg football team enjoyed a reputable season of four victories, one tie, and two defeats. The team, which included many first-year boys, was molded into a smooth-running group through the untiring efforts of Coaches Kempton, Hunt, and Kuhn. By a 7-0 score the Mercersburg gridders opened their season with a victory over Massanutten. The score of the contest occurred late in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter on an end run by jere Klivansky, who lugged the hall to pay dirt from the opponents' two-yard mark. Klivansky's pass for the extra point succeeded. On the previous play Dick Schindelar had crashed through the visitors' defense to block a kick, which set up the Mercersburg score. October 12 found the team wallowing in a sea of mud and holding a strong Kiski eleven to a 0-0 tie. Compelled by rain to stick to a simple ground game, the teams gave an exhibition of staying power. The first half proved nothing more than a kicking duel. With Klivansky's kicking and Cappon's quarterbacking, the Academy team held its own in this half. After an even third quarter the Mercersburg aggregation started to roll, and the drive was concluded on Kiski's ten-yard stripe. N x 5 ,J N i fi, i ' i4,'1r 168 For their third game of the season the Academy gridmen traveled to West Notting- ham Academy in Maryland. Mercersburg's first score came in the early minutes of the third period on an end sweep by Von Uffel from the ten-yard marker. The conversion failed. Saeger, Whittlesey, and Kopliner caught a Nottingham back behind his goal line and brought him down for a safety to make the score 8-0. By a 21-6 score the Blue and White defeated Valley Forge in the fourth game of the schedule. Returning to the second half with a 0-0 tally, the Academy team meant busi- ness. Shortly after the kick-off Cappon heaved a 35-yard pass to Sebring, who ran over to score from the five-yard line. Klivansky's placement made the score 7-0. The Academy gridders struck twice for touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Whittlesey took a reverse from Cappon on the Cadets' eight-yard stripe and scampered into the zone standing up. A recovered Forge fumble by Bassett resulted in the Academy's final tally. Both placements by Klivansky were good, and the score stood 21-0. In the closing minutes of the last stanza, Valley Forge countered with six points on a thirty-five yard pass. ' Playing a return game with Kiski at Saltsburg, the Academy team scored twice in the first-half on a Cappon-to-Sebring pass and a plunge by Klivansky from the one-yard line. Following recovery of a Kiski fumble deep in their own territory by Lorentz, the Blue and White scored their second counter. The first half concluded with Kiski on the short end of a 13-0 score. In the second half with determined spirit, and passing deftly from their T formation, the hosts pushed the ball to the ten-yard stripe, where they cracked the line for a score. Interception of an Academy pass gave Kiski its second tally. A pass for extra point was completed, tying up the score at 13-13. After a sustained drive Kiski scored once again on an off-tackle trip good for ten yards. Mercersburg scored again but lost through dubious penalty, and the score remained at Kiski 19, Mer- cersburg 13. The following week found Mercersburg up against a rugged Woodberry Forest aggregation at Orange, Va., who trounced them, 33-13. After a Mercersburg fumble recovered by Woodberry, they marched down the field to score, and the conversion was true. A blocked kick and a Red-and-Gray recovery resulted in another hometeam score. The next period opened with a score for Mercersburg by Schaub, who scampered forty yards to score after intercepting a Woodberry pass. Later in the same quarter the Vir- ginians scored again. The teams left the field at half time with the score Woodberry 20, Mercersburg 7. The third period was all Woodberry's, who scored thirteen points more. The Blue and White scored a second time late in the fourth stanza from a blocked kick by Harris and a recovery by Brooks in the end zone. Determined not to taste the bitter pangs of defeat three times running the Academy team took to the air to conclude their season with a 14-6 victory over a much larger, older Devitt team from Washington, D. C. The Blue and White took over the ball on the midfield stripe, when Smead recovered a Devitt fumble. Two passplays and a few linebucks later Cappon crashed over from the one-yard line. Klivansky split the uprights to give Mercersburg a 7-0 lead. A 25-yard aerial to Baker stationed in the end zone gave Mercersburg its second score. The third quarter gave the fans a kicking duel, but in the last Devitt came to life and scored after recovering a fumble on the home team's 13-yard stripe. The game ended with Mercersburg the victor, 14-6. The team elected Eddie Saegar captain, while Etchison was its manager. ' EQ -'?-.,1.' 555 ' 6 '-1i.

Ll-1Au, jk. - Cajnfaiu Mu. Cllmlui-is R. Huusa' Couch Mercerburg's Jayvee football team opened the season with a 19-0 victory over the Patton Trade School. The game was played in a wet, cold wind and a driving rain, which made it more of a brute-strength fight than a football game. A week later the team traveled to the Scotland School for the annual encounter against its bitterest rival. Throughout the entire game the boys seemed unable to get started, and the Scotland Red and Wlmite racked up a score of thirty-four points to the Blue and Wl1ite's none. The next two encounters with the Biglerville High School and the Hanover Jayvees were cancelled because of a misunderstanding in schedule. On November 15 the season was hnished off with a 43-0 slaughter over the somewhat smaller Harpers Ferry High School team. Although the number of games seemed to grow smaller and smaller as the season wore on, the boys worked hard in practice and showed fine football in the games played. This year again found the team under the excellent coaching of Mr. Charles Hurst, and Morgan Lear was elected captain by his teammates. Although the squad was lacking to a certain extent in speed and spirit, it possessed a strong desire to improve, stamina, ability, and a sincere liking for the game. 170 J ,,.4af4.17. .Ls --N 1, ,taxi .,C'Iu of ,K , 1- Ki.. , -fyvfz ' 4' , ' , f' f- if f . , .fm-. ,fj,.l,j,iv7l V11 gif,-.4g'f7!dc6 . qigjrng I Left to llig:htfE.

Cjl1SC1'l66ldG1fS No small factor in the spirit of the student body of the Mercersburg Academy throughout the school year is the quality of leadership given by the staff of Cheerleaders, and this year the school has been fortunate in its cheerleading organization of six mem- bers, headed by Jack L. Willizlms, and directed by the faculty adviser, Mr. Lucian C. Bareham. During the Hrst few days of the fall term, Williams and his assistants were able to coach the new boys of the school in the different cheers so that, from the very first, fine spirit was shown at all the football games. Careful timing of all cheers was an out- standing factor. Besides the regular leading at the games the staff has done a fine job in the Assembly and the dining room on those occasions when cheers have been given. OIFIFICERS JACK L.

According to the Coach the squad developed great teamwork, which with practice became Hnally almost unbeat- able. Showing fine spirit and ability, the Blue and White aggregation did credit to their school and their Coach. The team defeated Washington Township 5-1, Greencastle High 4-1 and 4-2, lost twice to Mercersburg High 1-3, and tied McConnellsburg High 3-3. With the planned return of a number of the squad in the fall of 1947 Mercersburg should show an even brighter record on the soccer field.

Varsity Basleetball Although the basketball team was composed of four newcomers to the Academy, Whittaker, Raymond, Klivansky, and Baker, it has developed into a very efficient and powerful combination. The three returning veterans from last year's squad were Greg- son, Schindelar, and Bunker. Mr. Leonard A. Plantz, as usual, deserves the credit for developing the group into the excellent team it proved to be. Up to the second week in February the team had lost only two games. The Blue and Wl1ite's defeated the Chambersburg Legion 43 to 369 Fairchild Air- craft 62 to 425 Kiski School 66 to S15 St. James School 74 to 253 the Penn State Freshmen 63 to 489 a return engagement with the Kiski School 46 to 273 and Frederick fMcl.j High School S3 to 42. The only games in which we were defeated were with the York Junior College, the score being 44 to 65, and the Navy Plebes 36 to 61. The schedule for the rest of the games is as follows: February I2-St. James School. February 28-Johnstown Junior College. February li-York junior College. March 1-Randolf-Macon.

Throughout the season the fine work of breaststroker Lee Prior, 220 man Ronald Walske, backstroker Jim Pfautz, and returning veterans Ed Saeger, Walt Braham and Captain Johnny Preston was noticeable. Thrilling moments were supplied by breast- stroker johnny Steele at Annapolis, and the grit of 220 man Bill Edgar in the first York meet. Credit must be extended to the entire team for developing one of the best swim- ming teams that Mercersburg has produced in several years. ' 5 Q . L . L , '- . L , L .

The next week pro- vided a truly thrilling event as the Academy team met Connie Mack's famous Philadel- phia Athletics, who won by a 12-1 score, in a pre-season practice game. During the following week the Blue and White nine engaged in two contests, downing Loyola High School from Baltimore, S-2, in the Hrst and dropping the second to Altoona High, 7-4. Traveling to Valley Forge for their next game, the Academy batsmen suffered a 10-5 defeat at the hands of a hard-hitting Forge team. The next three games saw the Academy enter into the doldrums to lose them all. Trounced thoroughly to the tune of 17-2 by Western High of Washington and defeated 5-1 by Forest Park High School of Baltimore, Mercersburg journeyed to Altoona where the nine was once again conquered by a 7-O score. In what proved to be the last contest of the season the Academy team outslugged Massanutten Military Academy, 10-7. The schedule for 1947 at KARUX press time was: April I2-Roosevelt High School of Washington April 16-Valley Forge Military Academy. April 19-Massanutten Military Academy.

This building is to replace the Shacks,', built as a temporary structure in 1927 when Old Main Hall was de- stroyed by fire. Dr. Boyd Edwards started the campaign in 1939. However, plans were delayed because of the war, and now the Board of Regents is planning to carry out the earlier plans to erect such a building. The architects have estimated the cost of the building as planned at f1S450,000. At the start of the cam- paign the following amount was in hand: 1939 Campaign, Paid ............,........,.....,. .....,.... ..,..,... ..,... ...,......

S339,551.60 The new structure as designed by architects Trautwein and Howard, of Philadelphia, will contain thir- ty-four rooms for classes, a new library room which will be 100 feet by 25 feet, the biology, physics, and chemistry laboratories, a manual training room and a mechanical drawing room, a faculty lounge, five hobby rooms, and necessary storage rooms. The building will be three stories high in front and four on the east side. The dimensions of the entire building will be fifty-two and one-half feet by one hundred eighty-six feet, there will be a projection to the east containing the library and laboratories. General design of the building will be Neo-Grec in order to harmonize earlier constructed buildings with the Chapel, it will be made of brick, with white trimming, and will form a completion of the eastern side of the Chapel Quadrangle. The laboratories below and above the library in the center of the east side will afford Mercersburg facilities which will equal those of any preparatory school in the country. In.this one building will be located all the rooms necessary to accommodate adequately the extra-curricular activ- ities now conducted in rooms in Main Hall, the Annex, 'Eighty-eight Dormitory, Laucks Hall, and the Shacks. Since the beginning of Mercersburg as a preparatory school there has been a high standard of teaching which has since become a tradition, today Dr. Tippetts wishes to carry out the plan and desire of Dr. Irvine and Dr. Edwards that Mercersburg shall have superior classrooms for its masters to do their jobs even better than now under more favorable conditions.

F l-ANI ' Architect's Drawing of Floor Plan 188 When the new Main Hall was built, the present classrooms in that building were planned in such a way that at a later date they could be changed into dormitory rooms with the completion of a new building. From this space there will be available in Main Hall fourteen rooms to ac- commodate twenty-eight boys, one bath, two hobby rooms, and a dormi- tory common room. This does not in- clude the space in the basements of Laucks, 'Eighty-eight, and Annex where extracurricular activities are housed. The chapel was built as a memorial to Mcrcersburg mothers and Mercers- burg sons who lost their lives in the First World War. The new recita- tion hall will honor those eighty-four men who gave their lives in the Sec- ond World War, for many of the rooms will be given by Alumni. Tab- lets are planned for such purposes, and Scale Model - lfast View the first floor will be given over to memorial rooms. Other rooms will be in memory of great teachers of former Mercersburg Faculties. Memorials to the two former headmasters of Mercersburg, Drs. Irvine and Edwards, will be erected. These are the plans made for Completing the Campus Picture with the erection of the new building. With the continuance of such splendid co-operation as has already been received the Campus may soon boast of another structure as impressive as the awe-inspiring Chapel or the majestic pillars of Main Hall. The general committee in charge of the Building Fund is as follows: Mr. George R. Hanks, General Clzairman. M r. Dr. Charles S. Tippetts, Head' Masfer. Scale Model-West View John M. Drumm. Mr. L. Vinton Hershey. The Rev. Irvin A. Raubenhold. Mr. Alfred E. Stearns. Mr. Henry B. Swoope. Mr. Ernest T. Trigg. Dr. Earl L. Douglass. Mr. David F. Chapman, Di 1'r'1' for of Campaign. Mr. Chapman has been relieved of his teaching duties for 1946-47 in or- der that he may devote all of his time to directing the campaign. He has been at Mercersburg for the past twen- ty-seven years, and is at present Head of the History Department. On February I, the total amount raised was S226,06S.00. vents SUMMER SESSION Mercersburg Academy held t h e fourth summer session in the history of the Academy from June 25 to August 29 with a total enrollment of 80 stu- dents, of whom 30 were veterans. Throughout the summer, assembly was held Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Several times Dr. Tippetts discussed current topics with the stu- dents in assembly. The morning of graduation the se- niors, led by Dr. Tippetts and Robert A. Winters, Pt'6SidCI1t of the class, Hayward Receives Diploma marched from the porch of North Cot- tage to the section of the lawn between North Cottage and Main Hall. Present were many guests, as well as members of the Faculty. In behalf of the mothers Mrs. E. C. Winters, mother of the Senior Class President, presented 3205 to be added to the Chapel Flower Fund as a token of appreciation of the mothers to the school. The Rev. James W. Moyer gave the invocation and then Dr. Tippetts, assisted by Mr. james G. Miller, registrar, presented the diplomas. After the exercises Mrs. Tippetts was hostess to the class and guests at luncheon. The Summer School Senate consisted of Winters, Burych, Frizzell, and Roney, who were appointed by Dr. Tippetts. During the Summer Session Mrs. Tippetts entertained the entire school at a delightful buffet supper in the gardens of North Cottage. Summer Graduating Class 190 Dr. Tippetts Opens 1946-47 Session acter, citizenship, and courage, and to cultivate a FALL OPENING The Fall Term of Mercersburg Academy started September 25, 1946, with a large enrollment of 460 stu- dents coming from 26 of the 48 states and the District of Columbiag also sev- en foreign countries were represented by students here. In the Head Mas- ter,s opening speech he explained to the student body that they were writ- ing a record that would stand for all time. He also pointed out the great sacrifice their parents were making to send them here, and that they should not let a day go by without making some advancement. Dr. Tippetts then encouraged the students to build char- consideration for others. Of the 460 students 40 were veterans who had returned to school after serving their country for many yearsg the Faculty also had their share of returning veterans with 3 masters coming back to the Campus to resume their teaching. The Faculty was later increased by two new masters because of the larger student body. Messrs.,Hunt, How- ard, and Miller were the returning teachers, while Messrs. Thomas and Rutter were the later additions. Schedule Committee at NVork FIRE Soon after the beginning of the fall term, on Wednesday, October 2, a fire broke out in the Academy barn in the rear of the school. Because of the excitement the students were dismissed from their studies to view the blaze. As the upper loft of the barn was Hlled with hay, the firemen unfortunately were unable to bring the fire under control until after the building, along with three trucks, a tractor, and other farm equipment, was completely destroyed. TEA DANCE Mercersburg,s annual fall tea dance was held on October 19, 1946. Mr. and Mrs. George F. Hamer were on hand to greet each couple as they entered the Assembly Hall, where the dance was held. One hundred and twenty Mercersburg boys waited on that pleasant, sunny Saturday afternoon for the arrival of many beautiful girls from Penn Hall and other places. While most of the couples consisted of blind dates, there was little dis- appointment, and there were many tours of observation to the various buildings and inter- esting spots on the campus, as well as to Traylor Hall, where tea was served all during the dance. Don Englander, an alumnus, and his orchestra provided the music for this very enjoyable afternoon. Fall Tea Dance ALUMNI REUNION Meeting for the first time since 1941, the largest group of Alumni in more than twenty years returned to Mercersburg on October 12, 1946 for the annual Alumni Reunion. Enthusiasm was high as the Old Boys of the Academy returned on the Satur- day nearest to Dr. Irvine's birthday for an event which the war years had curtailed. Luncheon, which was followed by a football game with Kiski in the rainiest weather possi- 192 ble, was served in Keil Hall, and alter seeing two football teams almost literally swim to a scoreless tie the visiting Alumni went to North Cottage, where Dr. and Mrs. Tippetts received them for tea. ' At live o'clock the Alumni Association met in the Assembly Hall, where a new Council was elected, Dr. Alexander Stewart, ,I-1, of Shippensburg, Pa., being elected President of the Association. View of Dining Room at Alumni Dinner That evening at the Alumni Dinner in Keil Hall Dr. Tippetts, Admiral Boone, and Mr. Chapman were the speakers of the occasion, and tribute was paid to the long and faithful service of Mr. Drumm. lirancis R. Lowell, '10, was toastmaster, Among those present were four men who were celebrating their fiftieth anniversary. FIELD TJAY The outstanding fall event on the school calendar in past years has always been the annual lfield Day. This year the 54th annual Field Day was a sunny, beautiful day and the weather was perfect for tracksters. Outstanding among the various compe- titions of the event was that for the XVilliams Cup. This cup, a gift of Mr. R. I.. Wil- liams, of Chicago, an alumnus of Mercersburg, is awarded each year to the boy who scores the highest number of points in a program of track and field events. The winner of the cup this year was Charles Moore. Several of the events were held in the morning because of the full afternoon schedule. A bufifet luncheon was served in Keil Hall for guests and friends of the Academy. ln the annual track events, two boys garnered more than one first place. They were XVilliam Arnold who took the 300-yard run and the low hurdles and NVilliam Bald- win who won the broadjump and the pole vault. Other winners included John Spadone in the 60-yard dash for juniors, Robert M. Jones in the 100-yard dash, Hugh Miller in the one mile run, Wfilliam Rommel and Wil- liam Slicer tied for first place in the high jump, Jere Klivansky in the shotput, Herbert Lorentz in the javelin throw, and David lfmerieh in the discus throw. 193 In the evening at an Assembly of the School the Williams Cup was presented to Moore by his father, Charles H. Moore, '22, who was a member and champion hurdler of the 1924 Olympic Team and a former winner of the same cup. At the same Assembly the gold, silver, and bronze Field-Day medals were presented, and the winners of the tennis cups were announced. Robert Cohill was the victor and john Spadone the runner- up of the singles tournament, while the doubles cup went to Robert Cohill and Thomas Barton. The sermon in the Chapel next morning was delivered by the Rev. James Moyer of the class of 1928. CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES The Mercersburg Academy closed its fall term on Tuesday, December 13, with the departure of several chartered busses and their passengers for all points of the compass. Many outstanding events preceded first day of vacation, Hrst of which was the Declama- tion Contest in the Assembly Hall on Friday evening. The first prize, the Dorothy Baker Bob Cohill, Mrs. Chapman, and Mrs. Hafner Receive at Christmas Formal Prize, was awarded to Robert Stranahan for his delivery of The Mountain Whippoor- will. Walter Anderson carried off the John Derr Prize for second place with his rendi- tion of The Shooting of Dan McGrew, and Robert Staley won the third prize with his excellent work with Mr, Hay's Memory System. On Saturday evening the Varsity Basketball team played its first game of the season, when they defeated an experienced Veteran's,' team from Chambersburg, Pa. The Christmas Dance was also held that evening at Traylor Hall with Mercersburg's own Blue and White Melodians under the direction of Mr. Henry Ready furnishing the music. As usual the Chapel was effectively decorated with evergreens, bells, and red bows for the services on Sunday. In keeping with tradition the afternoon or candlelight ser- vice was highlighted by the music of the Carillon and the organ and the singing of the choir. Mr. and Mrs. David F. Chapman, who have done the decorating for a number of years, were ably assisted by the Chapel Ushers. 194 On Monday night the long-awaited candlelight dinner was held at Keil Hall, which was appropriately decorated with evergreen boughs. -At this time the winners of the Declamation Contest were announced as well as the award of the Aurelian Cup to John Browning, of Oakland, Md. Later in the evening the Varsity Basketball team played their second game of the season, from which they emerged victorious over the Fairchild team of Hagerstown. MID-WINTER WEEK-END Snow and wind, the worst in several years, somewhat removed the glitter from Mercersburg's traditional Mid-Winter Week-End, which was held February 21, 22, and 23. The terrific storm, however, did not curtail the spirit of rivalry between the Wash- ington Irving and John Marshall Literary Societies. This spirit reached its climax at the fifty-third annual intersociety debate held in the Nolde Gymnasium on the night of Washington's birthday. The Irving team composed of Arch Newton, Charles Trepel, Bob Stranahan, and Tom Freeman defended the negative side of the question: Resolved that-The Federal Government Should Provide a System of Complete Medical Care Available to All Citizens at Public Expense. The negative won the debate, and Stranahan was awarded the prize as Best Speaker for the second time. Irving now has 24 victories to her credit, while Marshall counts 22. The Marshall faflirmativej team included Walter Anderson, Stewart Pursel, Willigmm Kanenson, and Edgar Masinter. The blizzard, which blocked highways and prevented the attendance of many guests, gave the School a topic of conversation for many years to come and interfered consid- erably with the traditionally scheduled events. It did not prevent the visit of a basket- ball tcam from the Johnstown QPa.j Junior College, who were defeated 33-39 by Mer- cersburg in a fast and exciting game on Friday night. In the intersociety sports events, swimming and basketball, held Friday afternoon the two societies split the honors. Mar- shall's team won the swimming 30-27, while Irving won the basketball game 32-18.

Iiinmcn Pose Informnlly 207 Veterans An important part of the student body at Mercersburg this year was the group of Veterans. These boys, approximately forty in all, resided, for the most part, in Colonial Cottage. Eleven of these were old Mercersburg boys returning to take up their studies where they left off before the war. The rest were boys who didn't finish their high school training or else needed more credits in order to get into college. A few, who couldn't get into college because of overcrowded conditions, were picking up some credits while waiting. Many corners of the earth have been seen by these former G, . . - l.'s. They fought in such far away places as Iwo Jima, Pelileu, , s 552 the Marianas, Guam, Leyte and Luzon in the Philippines, Oki- nawa, Saipan, China, the China Sea, New Guinea, and Samar, to MH' IWWUYU name a few. Most of them were in active service when the war ended and were not discharged until the early part of 1946. Surprisingly enough almost two- thirds of all Vets at Mercersburg last winter served in the Navy, while only nine served in the Army and three in the Marines. The longest period of service of any one person was forty-seven months, and the longest tour of sea or foreign duty was thirty-nine months. The following is a list of decorations and medals received by these Vets', in the course of the war. The list includes the number of men who were awarded decorations, not the number of decorations awarded: Presidential Unit Citation, 43 Navy Unit Citation, 25 Letter of Commendation, lg Combat ln- fantry Badge, lg Submarine Combat Medal, lg Battle Stars, 163 Army Good Conduct Medal, 63 Navy Good Conduct Medal, 65 Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal, 1, American Theatre Cam- paign Medal, 40g Asiatic-Pacihc Campaign Medal, 25g European Theatre Campaign Medal, 8g Victory Ribbon, 40, Army of Occupation Medal, 2, Philippine Liberation Ribbon, 10.

During the fall several were on the Varsity football squad, while several others helped out with the Third Team football, track, soccer, and body-building. The winter months found Veterans on the swimming, basltetball, and wrestling teams. This shows that these ex-servicemen had a desire to participate in the sports program at Mercersburg, even though no physical exercise was required of them by the Academy. Interests of these former MG. l.'s was, by no means, con' lined to sports, however. Active participation of Vets', here could be found in almost every organization on the Campus. These included the Choir, the Glee Club, and Press Club, DOI to mention the honorary language clubs. ln addition to this the president and secretary of the senior class were veterans and so t'oi.ovi.ii, t-o'i i'.upi': were several class day committee members. Colonial Cottage, the dormitory reserved for Veterans alone, was the home of all boarding Veterans. This building, a yellow frame structure, is located in town a short distance from the campus. lt is within easy walking distance of the classrooms and has sutlicient room for the thirty-two Vets who lived there. Colonial was under the supervision of Mr. W'illiam XV. lloward. Mr. lloward, a lieutenantv Commander in the Navy during the war, teaches Mathematics. A teacher at Nlercersburg before entering the Navy, Mr. Howard spent 54 months in the service, during which time he rose to his present rank. His four and one-half years of experience in the Navy made him especially suitable for the position of Dean of Colonial. In this position he has gained the respect and admiration of the students there. XX'inter School Veterans I-'irsl Ilou, la-ft to llielit llollatnul, Iuirai-it, Wolf, lataszfr, Iiztrlwr.
