After lunch The day-school's quality is e'er on tap, Each character would have his own pursuits: The Ripper with the monitor disputes If black sedan surpasses rattle trapg While Will and Kitch develop negatives, Another in the shack picks up the strains Of Robbins House, the quiet painter feigns Cezanne, another kicks to's Vespa gives. Q at S C But by the chapel Bushman beats the brush Y In search for Harding and a Model A Cshamej While Plebe's and Ruggie's minds are far away Or on the Point or on last weekends crush. Rides on the day-school-all before it kneels In affirmation of its worth on wheels. First Roux' Cote, Bottomly, Hunsaker, Ingram, Allen.

and clothes. Thus we were compelled to put locks on our doors lfor to win they must attack when our backs are turned, and crawl along the window ledge to exit and enter our new citadell. Twice that year we had brushes with gray slips, but escaped unscathed. These were the times we laid waste to the board walk and imprisoned the second classmen in the coat room of Wigg. Other monuments of this year were the shin-kickers, Sir Peter Glazebrook, and the winning of the Twilight League. Under the stern tutelage of Sir Peter and the iron hand of jovial Joe Warner during the reign of terror, we managed to come through. 1958-59 was the year of enlightenment. We discovered Boston and its various hot spots. We were introduced to pizza, home-cooked or otherwise. Throughout the Spring, we soaked up the sun on the Upton House links and the roof. There were poker games in the bathroom after lights, and night flights to other near-by dens of iniquity. Combined with all these other activities, there was the diversion of academics. Warned that we were spreading ourselves too thin, we decided to concentrate on important things only. In spite of this, the big one got honors for the last quarter. To finish the year with a bang, there were the girls who tried to climb our rope ladder. And alas, Sir Peter was driven from us by the beat of The Battle of New Orleans and by the Black Marauders. The year of our graduation, we are finally on top of the stack. In spite of the unfair ratio of three johns to one Dick, we have made it. Arriving in September, much to our surprise, we find a marvelous co-existence in progress, namely a hawk and a pigeon living in the same nest. This is the year of green slips, dining room control, fiunky inquisitions, and closet walls. In june, we leave this hallowed house, never to return. For a while we will not be able to sleep at night, not being at school. This is not what you think, nostalgia. It is more the task of getting used to sleeping in a house which a gentle zephyr does not rock. And so, we pass on and say, Good luck!
