When youLh, so carelessly accepted now, Has blown away like smoke in Nashville air, And age has settled, once-for-all, its care Upon iny wind-kissed, infant’s ivory brow. The thoughts of columns, magnolia bough, A green door splotched with streaks of black repair (Applied by those we know could not be there) Will give us all that memories allow. The present play is what we will recall. And memories will frame the obscure hours With minutes we once let the four winds blow A vay like seeds that hide and later gro v. Each day we spent here we will grasp as flowers Seen by Arctic dwellers fearing Fall. PRESENTED BY THE MONTGOMERY BELL ACADEMY VOLUME 13 LASS OF TENNESSEE SENIOR NASHVILLE ■i .f j ■ hM ■ ■ ■ ; r ■ J - + V. Afk. LeK AfERIWETMER Dedication to Mr. Meriwether Akhough he has been on the faculty at M.H.A. for only two years, Mr. Lee Meriwether has earned the permanent respect and friendship of every boy at M.B.A. I ' herefore, it is with great pride and a deep sense of gratitude that the Senior Cdass dedicates this 19;) edition ol T he Bell to Mr. Meritvether. Mr. .Meriwether has ])roved to be an excellent science teacher, but more than this, he has proved to be an inspiration to every boy with whom he has come in contact. e will always consider Mr. Meriwether as an integral part of our memories of M.B..- .. and we are deeply appreciative of his warm Iriendline.ss and fine ideals. DEDICATION Dk. R. L. Sager Dedication to Dr. Sager W ' Gy ihe members ol the Senior Class ol 1957, wish to dedicate this volume of The Bell to Dr. R. L. Sager. His teaching and guidance have benefited us im- measurably during our years at M.B.A. But above and beyond his teaching, we all have come to cherish and revere the high ideals lor which Dr. Sager stands. He is a man possessing unexcelled integrity and Christian principles, and our relations with him have proved to be wholesome and beneficial to us in every way. Long from now, while reminiscing about years on the Hill, we shall remember Dr. Sager as a fine educator, a true Christian gentleman, and a lifelong friend.

Behind the academic scenes, this group has influenced the life of every student in many ways; and often their acts are performed without due recognition. We, the graduating class, do now acknowledge the sincere efforts of these men in our behalf, an example of which is the initia- tion of construction of the Brownlee (). Currey Gymnasium. We depart with a more full sense of the importance of this Board to M.B.A. and its alumni. FkKRISS (1. BAIITlY Secret (I ly Robkri McNf.itia Treasu rer John A. Bai.i, Jamks O.

Will it not dejjend, in part, on what tve see In these our guides across the (juaking lands Of prying intellect on which youth stands— I he dedicated ones whose faces shine With lights of truths that burn the brain like wine? I he secret of success lies in knowing rides. What more than well-wrought rules do we need? Tlie tools kor living do not inc lude the mind’s retreat. A course, a purpose— that is all we ask krom life to make the steady steps complete. The strength we have; we only need the task.

A. 37-East 0 M.H.A.’s clelciuling state champions opened the 195() season witli a decisive 37-0 victory over the East High Eagles. In tlie win the Marcjons sported a vicious deiense that set up lour ol the Big Red’s five touchdowns. Ehe Maroon lorewall was led by Ron Grnl)bs, who re- peatedly threw Eagle runners for losses. To add to his night’s work, Grnbbs intercepted a pass and blocked two punts. ' Ehe ollense was led by senior hallback Billy Hunter, who gained 70 yards in 12 carries, and Ed Creagh, who picked up ()0 yards in six carries. In addition to Hunter and Creagh, who each scored two touchdowns, I’onnny Miirphree crossed the goal lor one six-pointer. Hunter also added a held goal and lour extra points. Del ' ensively, Don Brothers and Tom Husband joined Grubbs in continually harassing the East ball-carriers. As a result oi’ their sixirkling performances. Husband and Grubbs were hon- ored by being selected to the weekly All-City team. Don Brothers, Capt. John Murphree, Alt. Capt. A1. B. A. 37-Goodlettsville 0 The speedy Maroons oiitcharged, outran, and, in general, completely dominated play to hang up a convincing 37-0 victory over the Goodlettsville Thojans. The lighter Af.B.A. line out- blocked and out-tackled the bigger Trojans, while the fast, elu- sive Big Red backs were prancing through huge holes and scooting around the ends with apparent ease. The Maroon defense kept the Trojans bottled up all night, never allowing them to get a drive started. In fact, the Good- lettsville team crossed into M.B.A. territory only three times, rheir deepest penetration was to the Big Red 17 in the third period. On offense the Big Red was very impressive. With Billy Hunter doing most of the ball carrying, M.B.A. scored from practically everywhere on the field. Joining Hunter in the scor- ing column were David Duke, who took a 35-yard pass from Tommy Murphree; Buddy Foxall, who scored on a handolf from John Dale; and Emmett Dozier. Dozier’s touchdown, a 53-yard punt return, was the second longest of the game. Elunter was named “Player of the Week” for his outstanding performance. Sparking the Maroon forewall were John Mur- phree, Buddy Skinner, and Don Brotheis. M. B. A. 27 -Clarksville 0 M.B.A.’s power! Ill liig Reel roared to their third straight victory by deleating Clarksville, a perennial Midstate power, 27-0. Hie Maroons kept their goal line uncrossed with a savage display ol tackling that rocked Frank Andrews Stadium the en- tire game. Captain Don Brothers set uji the lirst marker by intercej ting a waywaicl Wildcat pass on the Clarksville 27. Ed Caeagh and Billy Crawldrd, alternating carrying the ball, took it to the 11. From there Creagh circled right end lor the score. John Mui- j)hree Tell on a Clarksville lumble at the Wildcat . 5 to set up the second touchdown. A lew plays later d )mmy Murjihree threw 22 yards to David Duke lor the tally. Billy Hunter kicked his second I to give the Afaroons a 14-0 hall- time advantage. In the final |)eriod Caeagh, Craw- lord, and Hunter s])arked a long drive that ended in a 12-yard toss Irom Murphree to All-City end IMin Hus- band. Murphree comj leted the scor- ing lor the night when he sneaked across Irom the one. Fhe ollensive line was sparked by Wade Elam, David Duke, and fohn Muse, wliile Brothers, Husband, and Buddy Skinner led the rock-wall de- lense. Creagh’s tremendous running |)aced the ball carriers. Alter rolling over their lirst three opponents, the Maroons l)arely edged the Fighting Irish 7-2 in a terrilic dei’ensive strug- gle. ddie Big Red Tailed to show the oUensive prowess which had made them so feared in their lirst games. M.B.A. scored its only touchdown in the lirst period when Billy Hunter inter- cepted a Ryan |)ass and bulled over for the tally. After the score the Irish shut the door in the Big Red’s faces, battling them on even terms for the remainder of the contest. d1ie Ryan defense held M.B.A. to 8 1 yards rushing and . 4 passing. i ' he Irish didn’t score until the fourth cpiarter when Tommy Murphree fumbled in the M.B.A. end zone. Recovering with amazing speed. Maroon guard Wade Elam pounced on the ball behind the goal to give Ryan two points. Idicse were the lirst j oints of the season scored on the Big Red. Later in the quarter a Ryan touchdown was nullified by an obvious offside. Fumbles and penalties marred the hard-fought contest. Fhe Maroons fumbled six times and lost the ball on four occasions, while the Irish lost three of their four miscues. Many of these were caused by the hard hitting on the part of both teams. Idle Maroon forewall had no cause to lose face. They held the Ryan ball carriers to 7 1 yards on the ground and 64 in the air. John Murphree, Buddy Skinner, and Dave Duke were par- ticularly outstanding. Billy Hunter Runcie Clennents Tom Husband M. B. A. 7-Ryan 2 Wade Elam Bowyer Cheshire M. B.

The Big Red was unable to hold on to the ball to offer any serious threat until it scored the winning touch- down. Idle marker came midway in the fourth quarter when the Maroons finally came to life and drove 69 yards for the score. The drive was sjiarked by the running of Ed Caeagh, Ihlly Crawford, and Murphree. Leading the crushing M.B.. . defcn.se were Lorn Husband and John Muse. Buddy Foxall At. B. A. 20-SprLngfLeld 13 On Friday, October 18, the Maroons journeyed to Springfield to play the highly-regarded Yellow Jackets. Over 4500 Ians saw the respective unbeaten teams, with the Big Red emerging victorious, 20-13. During the first half M.B.A. could not get its oliense rolling and penetrated Springfield territory only once. For the first time in many games, the Maroons were behind at halftime, 6-0. The Big Red came out for the second half with blood in their eyes. Fhey took the opening kickolf and drove 69 yards, with d ' ommy Murphree plunging the last yard to jxiydirt. I ' hc Yellow Jackets, led by Larry Mayhugh, then drove for another touchdown; but the lead was short-lived. Billy Hunter returned the ensuing kickoll 31 yards to midfield. On the next play Irom scrimmage, Afurphree threw 54 yards to David Duke for the score. Hunter Thurman added the extra point, and the score was tied. A fourth cpiarter touch- down, sparked by a 47-yard pass from Murphree to Emmett Dozier, put the game on ice for the Maroons. Both teams turned in first-rate per- formances, and there were m a n y standouts. Playing their usual excel- lent games were John Aftirpliree, Buddy Skinner, and Ron Grubbs. Bill Barr Emmett Dozier M. e. A. 25-DuPont 0 John Muse Scoring a toiiclulown per period, ihe Big Red netted its seventh straight victory l y duinping tlie DuPont Bulldogs 25-0 on October 20. The Maroons literally ran the Bulldogs oil the held with the sharp passing ol’ IMminy Murphree, a devastating running attack, and a jarring defense. The game marked tlie return to gridiron warfare for Maroon fulll ack Buddy Foxall, who had been sidelined with injuries. Foxall turned in a line performance, scoring a first period touchdown. Murjjhree opened uj) in the second cpiarter as he engineered a 5()-yard scoring drive. He topped it olf with a 29-yard toss to David Duke. Once again in tlie third pe- riod Murphree found Duke in the oj3en for a touchdown from 27 yards out. A 20-yard pass to Billy Hunte- set up the last Maroon tally. Em- mett Dozier drove the final four yards for the marker. George McGugin T he stout M.B.A. forewall, a major factor in every Maroon win of the season, completely scjuelched the Bull- dog offense, allowing them no far- ther than the M.B.A. 40. Buddy Skinner was the outstanding lineman on the field. He received much help from Don Brothers. Clay Huddleston M. B. A. 40-Hillsboro 7 AT.B.A. coinl)ined its powcrlul oflense and unyielding defense to trounce the arch-rival Burros iDelorc a large hoineconiing crowd. Hillsboro managed to stay in the game during the lirst half, but the Big Red blew them olf the field after intermission. The Burros ate their words all night as Tom Husband blocked two punts, Buddy Foxall tore their line to shreds, and the Murphree-Duke pass combination sent them reeling. rhe Maroons scored first following Ron Chubbs’ recovery of one of the punts Husband had blocked. Shortly thereafter, Foxall plunged into the end zone for the game’s lirst touch- down. The Burros caught the M.B.A. secondary asleep for one of the few times of the year, and Otto Abernathy tossed one to All-City? end Bobby Mullen for Hillsboro’s only score. Mur- phree threw to Duke for the second Maroon touchdown, and the half- time score was 16-7. Tony Brush Amid cheers of “Back to the AA!’’ Buddy Skinner Robin Beard the Big Red gaves the Asses a lesson in pigskin play. They scored twice in each of the remaining periods. Ac- counting for the tallies were Foxall, Duke, Billy Cirawford, and Tony Brush. The Burros fumbled repeatedly be- cause of the tremendous licks hit by ihc Maroon line. Led by Don Broth- ers, John Muse, and All-City guards Buddy Skinner and Ron Crubbs, the M.B.A. forewall trampled the Bur- ros completely. m John Dale Dick Husband M. B. A. 20-LLtton. 7 On November 9, an overilow crowd saw tlie Afaroons roll over Isaac Litton’s Lions, 20-7. d’he win ran the Big Red’s unbeaten streak to 28. Lhe victory gave M.B.A. sole posses- sion oi’ the AAA crown, l)reaking a two year deadlock with the Idons. Litton took a momentary lead on Cecil Ewell’s ()5-yard jaunt, but the Maroons rought back early in the second (juar- ter, sparked by Ed Cireagh and Tommy Murphree. Trailing 7-0 because oi’ a missed extra point, the Big Red went into the lead on a 4()-yard pass Irom Murphree to Jim 1 hurman. Moments later Murphree scored as the halt ' ended, but a penalty nullitied the play. M.B.A. completely dominated play o in the second hall ' with lull back Billy f Crawford doing most of the damage. Crawford had one touchdown called back and set up another score. He was chosen “Back of the WA ek’’ for his tremendous game. d ' he Maroon forward wall played one of its top games. Led by Ron Ch ' ubbs, who was chosen “Lineman of the Week’’ for his outstanding game both offensively and defensively, it made a shambles of the Litton line. John Murphree and Tom Husband also were terrific on defense, and Wade Elam and John Muse led the offensive line along with Grubbs. Ransom White M. B. A.

The game marked the sixth time that a rematch has proved unprofitable lor the team which won during the regular season. I he Big Red stopped lour determined Sj ring- lield dri ’es— two within the Maroon ten-yard line. l oth teams displayed stonewall defenses that kept the I’ancy-stepjjing backs in check all day.

TENNIS During the twelve years that Mr. James C. Rule has been associated with M.B.A., his ten- nis teams have never lost the N.I.L. champion- ship. The 1957 scpiad seems to be no excej tion. With lour ol ' last year’s top six returning, in- cluding Captain Wylie McDougall, Eddie Mur- rey, Brad Reed, and Runcie Cdements, plus a liost ol veteran reserves, the team a])})cars to be ihe strongest in recent times. The top six will journey to C hattanooga this spring to compete in a tournament in which every part ol the South will be represented, d ' his tournainem will give the Maroon netters the oj portunity to gain back some ol the respect they lost last year, when lor the first time in history, they were del’eatcd in all three dual meets with Darlington, McCallie, and Baylor. But no matter what the outcome of this tourna- ment, the Big Red definitely seems lo have too many guns lor the rest oT the N.l.E. ' Kb M ' .. ' T444 ■!i MU . ri i.r : me jiin Wood, Manager, E.

Sponsored by the Rotary (ihd) and played on the Fairy- land (Country Cdub course, the tournament is one of the top in the South. GOLF Returning the entire front line from last year’s X.l.F. runners-up, the M.lkA. golf team appears to he the most potent in the league. Led by Russell Ilooper, Buddy Foxall, George Afc- (iugin, Cieorge Creagh, and Randy Barker, the team is a prime contendei ' for the N.I.L. title.

Under Coach Dave Barker, whose Toi ' mer team won the Georgia state championship, tlie Maroons are the darkhoiirse ol their district. Having lost many ol last year’s regtdars, the Maroons are expected to make up lor lack of experience with hustle and desire. There are only lour veterans on the squad: Billy Gerald, who will hold the No. 1 pitching spot; Doug Conwell, taking over at first base; Dick Williams, playing catcher; and John Dale at shortstop. Rounding out the starting line-up will be Carl Babb, Billy Crawford, Reati Estes, Robert Stan- ley, and Eddie Benson. Under the able leader- ship of Coach Barker, the Maroons are striving toward another fine season. first Rozu: Coach Barker, Mathes, Myhr, T. Gerald, Dale, Killehrew, Hall, Conwell, B. Gerald.

I.asi year’s Midstate representatives to the state track meet in emphis made its best show- ing in history, with M.B.A. winning the sj)rint medley iclay and placing in both hurdles, the mile, and the 4 10. d ' his year’s tliinclads show pi ' omise ol doing as well or better in tlie state meet, which will be held in Nashville. rhe Afaroons were weakened by the loss of hurdler Mack Rolle, miler Philip Boyd, and (jnartcr-miler Ivan Brown. 11 these gaps can be Idled, the M.B.A. tracksters are a good bet to bring home the Ihinner Relays trophy lor the ionrth consecutive year, dliey have won the dis- tinct meet three times and the regional meet twice. 4 heir chiel op|)osition will come Irom Bellevue and East. In the held events returning are Don Brothers and Marshall in the discus; Toni Husband, John Murjihree, and Muse in the shot; Marshall in the broad jump; and James Wood and Cllay in the high jump.
