ji. l .V ,, s MARK GEORGE BACH Entered 9th form: Manual Training 9: Rifle Club 9, 10, ll, 12: Chess Club 10: Track 11: Hockey 12 CM, Mark has established himself as the big, strong, and silent man of the Senior Class. , When not retiring into his shell, he can be seen trailing the masters with pink card in hand. In truth, Mark and Heise share dis- tinctive honors for the greatest accumula- tion of make-up cards over a four-year period. During the winter Mark serves as manager for the hockey team, and many thanks have been given him for keeping those sheds warm. Being cr muscle man, Mark also puts his brawn behind the shot and the discus as a member of the track squad. Although Mark sidesteps activities, he is always willing to lend a helping hand whenever help is needed. Undoubt- edly, he will make his mark wherever he goes. 'yr' ! ' 0 15,7 ,e. .ca .1 I .: eA..lV.

He is truly among the elite, for he is one of the class's most versatile gum- chewers. His particular prowess lies in discovering new and different caches for his Iuicy Fruit during recitations. His beau- tiful blushes and uncontrollable laughter in English class are worthy of mention, too. In sports Iim won his letter in football and then turned his talent to the basketball and track squads. He is fairly reticent around school but, nevertheless, sounds his do-re- mi's in glee club and is a crack shot on the rifle team. His unassuming manner and pleasant personality should carry him far. Come September, 1947, Brown, Haverford, or Amherst-the classical three-may be welcoming our Iames. 17

di? Q9 9 1 RICHARD RAYMOND GRIPFITH ' , Entered 7th form: Class President 8, 12: Student Council 9, 10, 11, 12: Prefect 12: Rifle Club 8. 9, 10, 11, 12, Rifle Trophy 11: Manual Training 8: Art Club 9, Glee Club 12: Arrow Editor 12: Arrow Business Manager 10, 11: Ledger Business Manager 10: Varsity Football Manager 11. 12: Pierce Bitker Award 11: Second Honors 8, Honorable Mention 9, 10. Birdseed , as he is known to all, has received a deserved tribute from his classmates by being elected president of the Senior Class. More than anyone else in school he has the friendship and respect of the entire faculty and student body. Although unobtrusive in manner, he always turns the laugh on those who kid him. Active in student government since his election to the Council as a freshman, he is the backbone of the prefects this year because of his common sense and integrity. He has done much work for the publications. He was business manager of the Ledger last year, and as editor of the 1947 Arrow he is greatly responsible for its success. His special forte is the art department. His Mexican murals were one of the best attractions of last year's very successful Junior Prom. Dick can also draw a bead better than anyone else in the school, having won the annual Rifle Contest. A hard worker in everything he undertakes, he does a creditable academic job, especially in mathematics, in which he is a whiz. For the last two years he successfully managed the football team. For his devotion and spirit he deservedly received the Pierce Bitker Loyalty Prize in his junior year. Dick hopes to go to Yale University next year: we feel that he will be successful in whatever field he chooses for his life's work. 16

CHARLES ADAMS CAHILL, III Entered 9th form: Student Council 12: Rifle Club 9. 10: Glee Club ll, 12: Band 9: Gamboliers 12: Auto Mechanics 10. ll: Chess Club ll. 12: Ledger 10, ll, 12: William G. Kopmeier Scholar 12: Second Honors 9, 10: Honorable Mention ll: Class Standing: 9, 2nd: 10, lst: ll, Znd. Charlie, the musical prodigy of the Senior Class, never ceases to amaze us with his skill, knowledge, and endless puns. He is an accomplished pianist and clarinetist- like Benny Goodman, Charlie switches easily from classics to boogie-and some- what of a composer as well. His musical talents have been put to good use in the glee club, Gamboliers, and assembly pro- grams. By no means does Charlie's skill end with music. Scholastically, he ranks among the top brains, and he is a Student Cotmcil member as well. In the winter Senior Leagues claim his time, and he is an all-season and well-seasoned man in chess club. With this versatility Charlie should shine in musical and intellectual circles at Harvard. LEHOY IAMES BURLINGAME, IR. Entered Sth form: Student Council 12: Rifle Club 8: Chess Club 9, 10, ll, 12: Manual Training 8, 9, 10, 11, 12: Basketball 12: Scholastic Improvement Prize ll. Outwardly, lim seems to be a mild-man- nered fellow who would never raise his voice above a whisper. However, in the event of a good discussion or argument. lim is an extremely active participant. We predict that he will follow in his father's footsteps by establishing a successful law- practice. Iim has topped his career at C. D. by being elected to the Student Council. In sports he is a regular on the touch-football squad, and during the basketball season he turns in a fine performance at center. Activity period, we find Iim in chess club, trying out his new systems which inevitably seem to work. No comment on lim would be complete without mentioning his hand- some profile and curly locks. With these comely assets and his amazing flow of eloquence he should be most successful at Harvard.
