Behind the academic scenes, this group has influenced the life of every student in many ways; and often tlieir acts are performed without due recognition. We, the graduating class, do now acknowledge the sincere efforts of these men in onr behalf. We depart with a more full sense of the importance of this Board to IM.B.A. and its alumni.

But yet we know our school will be the bait To pull us from the waters of former thought And start our lives upon a newer slate. Yet know we that our minds cannot be bought, And so we thank our teachers for the truths they’ve taught.

Where is a key to fit the dark, strange lock? Sweet reverie will do with words unsaid. I hear a firm voice tell of coming science. Diplomacy, thou mate of friendliness, I see thee strengthening a weak alliance. And handsome face wins maid of loveliness. As cannon shots put holes upon the slope. Through strength, a man leads maimed friends from the fray. When deep despair cries out “There is no hope,” A fresh-cracked joke helps put men’s fears away. Alas! There are no Apollos, no Delphis. But perhaps I’ve seen the truth with my own eyes.

IT AJjss Carol Davidson Hoiuccoming Queen The gavel’s blow resounds throughout the hall, As weary Congressmen come to their feet. Their souls sweat blood, as though from in- ward heat. While silent nods replace former roll calls. A haggard man begins to speak to all, “My friends, we must find means to stop de- feat; We need experience the foe to meet. Where are the men to catch us in our fall ?” Right here, right now bright eyes see what they’ll use. Sharp ears construe the worth of “Aye,” and “Nay.” A youthful president says, “All noise cease.” Where are the men? They’re here, at MBA. With such desire to learn, we cannot lose. Not long from now I know we’ll have our peace. Page 70 TOTOMOl The aspiration of every boy on the Hill is to become a member of Totomoi. That honor is bestowed to those boys who are outstanding in scholarship, leader- ship, athletics, publications and student government. Twice during the school year, several new members are tapped by the existing members of the Club. Truly an honor society in every sense of the word, the five year old Totomoi was guided through 1957-1958 by President Ed Creagh, Vic ' e-President Ira Parker, and Secretary Tommy Murphree. THE HONOR COUNCIL The hub of the Montgomery Bell Academy wheel of honor is the Honor Council. It is composed of one hoy from the junior school, two from the freshman class, two from the sophomore class, three from the junior class, and four from the senior class, all of whom are elected by their classmates. As the council examines offenses, determines guilt or innocence, and delivers the sentence, the Honor Code is wholly in the hands of the students. The Honor Council was guided through its thirteenth year by President Bill Barr. It is here at M.B.A. that the sense of hoiKjr is strengthened and firmly em- bedded so as to last every boy for the entirety of his life. The Honor Council First Rozv: Carpenter, Barr, Purdy, Knight.

Wood, THE KEY CLUB riie M.B.A. Key Club is a chapter of Key Club International, composed of sophomores, juniors, and seniors from high schools all over the nation. These select boys are chosen for leadership ability, outstanding character, and a scholastic ranking in the top third of the class. Our Key Club is sponsored by the Nashville Kiwanis Club. Its purpose is to develop good citizens who have initiative and leadership, and who will work with others to improve the school and its surrounding area. Page 72 if THE MONOGRAM CLUB The Monogram Club consists of every reci])ient of a varsity letter for his preceding year’s athletic work. An M.B.A. monogram signifies that a hoy has spent many hours and much effort on the field, hardwood, courts, course, diamond, or track, and that his ability and his desire have been recognized by his coach as deserving recognition. The purpose of this club is not only to honor the winners of varsity letters, hut also to encourage other boys to participate in sports. The Monogram Club PirsI Roiv: Babb, Purdy, J.

Page 74 THE Hl-Y CLUB The Hi- Clul), wliich was organized at AI.B.A. in 1952, has hecome one of the largest and one of the outstanding organizations in the school. Being spon- sored hy the YAICA, the Hi-Y Club has as its creed ' ‘to promote Christian Fel- lowship throughout the home, school and state.” Any boy in the sophomore, junior or senior classes is eligible for membership in the Hi-Y. Ibis years Club, headed hy President Laird Smith, has sent delegates to the Youth and Government assembly held at the State Capitol and has fielded a Hi-Y basketball team. THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council at M.B.A. was organized in order to promote a sense of democracy throughout the student body. The Student Council, along with Mr. Carter, its sponsor, has jurisdiction over disciplinary problems that are not within the tenets of the Honor Council and discusses improvements for the school. This year’s Council is composed of the officers of the freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classes. These leading boys have done an excellent job in striving to im- prove M.B.A. First Roiv: J.

THE 1958 BELL We liave tried to capture in pictures and words all of the things that make M.Jl.A. the outstanding scliool which it is — its athletics, its faculty, its students, and that intangible spirit that marks A ' l.B.A. as unique. This year’s annual would not have been possible without the work of Ed Creagh, Editor; W’ent Caldwell, Business Manager; and the other members of the staff.

SENIOR HONOR SOCIETY Attaining meml)ership in the Senior Flonor Society is the goal of every potential scholar at M.B.A. An overall average of 85 and no term average below 80 for the first five semesters are the cpialifications for membership in the society. This year, there are forty-five boys in this honorary society. 80 ii J ILJLJ JUNIOR HONOR SOCIETY The Junior Honor Society serves the Junior School in the same way as the Senior Honor Society serves the liigh school students. Each member wears an emblem of a flaming torch symbolizing consistent ability in the field of scholastic achievement. This society exists solely as an honorary organization and welcomes all students who reach the required goal of scholastic achievement. To be eligible for membership in the Junior Honor Society, a student in the Junior School must maintain an average of 85 for three semesters. First Roiv: Harwell, Yauslm, Williams. Francis, Evans.

THE FORENSIC CLUB I he Forensic Clul), now in its third year of organized activity, Ims come to he one of the most active organizations in the school. Tlie clul)-s main purpose is to provide lioys who liave completed So])homore Speech Class the opportunity to further their public speaking ability. The Forensic Club has at least one chapel jirogram a week, provides many interesting outside speakers, and conducts several Ladies’ Auxiliary ])rograms. Iia Parker, this years President, was al)le to place second in the State Ameri- can Legion Original Oratory Contest. He, together with the other officers of the club, has led the Forensic Club through another successful year. Page 82 THE FREEDOM FORUM The Freedom Forum, which was first presented to the M.B.A. student body l)y the meml)ers of the Junior Chaml er of Commerce, is composed of Ira Parker, Tommy Murphree, John Dale, Bill Barr, Ben Mayes, and George McGugin, and is directed by Mrs. Norton Campbell. This year’s Forum has spoken at many schools and luncheon clubs, including the Civitan Club and the Shriner’s Luncheon Club. With information compiled by the National Freedom Foundation, the panel of speakers em})hasizes the American Way of Life, and attacks Communism and Socialism. In six years at M.B.A., the Freedom Forum has brought high honors to the school. It has been awarded three George Washington Honor medals and a library award by the Freedom Foundation for its outstanding work. AIcGugin, Barr, Murphree, Dale, Parker, Mayes. Page B4 THE DEBATE TEAM The del)ate team was newly organized this year. Although the team, because it was the first, lacked experience, it more than made up for this defect with speak- ing al)ility and quick thinking. It was felt by many that M.B.A. needed a debate team. Debate not only arouses public sentiment and sbeds light on both sides of a pertinent question, but also teaches debaters to think clearly and quickly “on their feet.” To participate in a debate requires many hours of preparation; and certainly this year’s team under the direction of Airs. Campbell and composed of Randy Kroner, Lionel Bar- rett, Don Houser, Richard Appen, and alternate Garth Fort has done work of which all of us may be proud. Houser, .Appen, Fort, Barrett, Kroner. W A iomore THE MATH CLUBS For the first time in the history of a Math clul) has l)een entered into the list of orga- nizations on the Hill. The purpose of these clubs is to further mathematic education outside class. The only re(|uirements for membership are an average of ninety or above and a desire to increase mathematical knowledge. During the bi-weekly sessions, Mr. Rule, the founder, explains the college board examinations and any other advanced math tests to both the sophomores and junior members. Next year Mr. Rule hopes to broaden the scope of the club by having hoys from all the classes. - ' U 1 n f 1 1 H L E T I C S The thump of a racquet against a ball, The crack of a bat on a sunny day, The swish of a driver swinging around, The thud of two players meeting head-on As if their lives depended upon this play.

Ai.an Pukuy P n.L Bark M.B.A. 33 - East 0 M.IPA. rang u]) its tliirtieth straight game without a defeat over I ' .ast at tlie loser s field September 14. Tommy Murphree scored three of the Maroon l.D.’s and fullback Billy Crawford and halfback Ed Cieagh tallied the others. I he defending champions took advantage of Jiast errors to build up a 14-0 halftime margin. Three scores came m the final jjenod. John Clay gave M.B.A. its first chance when he blocked an Eagle punt on the East 28 yard line. Seven jilays later Mur])hree galloped into the end zone from the 3 yard line. A 41 yard pass from Murphree to end David Duke set up the Maroon’s second score in the second period. Two plays later Crawford slammed into the end zone. Ciawlord also added all three iMaroon extra points from placement. iMidway in the final cptarter, the Alaroons started a drive from the East 26 yard line, and the touchdown was a 14 yard run by Murphree. Four minutes later an East quick kick attempt was blocked and Murphree raced fourteen yards with the hall to paydirt. The final touchdown was the most spectacular. Ed Creagh gathered in an East punt on his own 35 yard line and raced into the East end zone for a 65 yard scoring jaunt. Joining Creagh and Murphree as the Afaroon’s big guns were David Duke and guard George AIcGugin. r i r Wirt McKnight Tom Stephens M.B.A. 32 - Goodlettsville 0 The Big Red met the Trojans of Frank Andrews field on the night of a lucky Friday 13 and emerged the victor hy the score of 32-0, taking their thirty-first game without a defeat. The Trojans had a slight case of fnmhle-itis, coughing u]) the hall twice in the first five minutes of play. The Maroons capitalized swiftly on the first of these breaks, Ed Creagh slashing across for the first T.l). Goodlettsville fumbled on the ensuing kickoff, setting up the second Maroon touchdown. In the second half, a beautiful AIurphree-to-Duke pass play scored the third marker, after which Alurphree himself scored on a 21 yard jaunt. The final tally came on a two yard ]dunge hy fullback Tommy Roberts. Probably the game’s most colorful highlight was an 82 yard punt return by John Dale, which was nullified hy an illegal ])rocedure j:)enalty. wraik’ % M.B.A. 39 - Clarksville 6 In their third outing of the year, the Maroons chalked up their thirty-second consecutive victory, trouncing Clarksville 39-6. Early in the first quarter, Ed Creagh shot through a gaping hole in the Wildcat forewall on an off tackle j)Ower and raced 51 yards before being pulled down on the four. Billy Crawford hulled over for the score and added the PAT himself, making the score 7-0. Clarksville was forced to punt after their series of downs, and the Big Red struck again, Murphree capping a five-play drive with a sneak from the one. Immediately after the half, Murphree again tallied on a ten yard keeper play. I he final score of the third period resulted from George McGugiirs block of an attempted Clarksville punt which Alan Purdy scooped up on the run and raced 27 yards to the double stripe. The furious final quarter saw a flurry of touchdowns, as Murphree scored once again from the five, after which Clarksville scored its lone counter. On the ensuing kickoff, Tom Stephens gathered in the ball on the eight and outran the entire Wildcat team for 92 yards and the final score of the game. Tom Roue RTS Dick Williams John Clay Bill Crawford M.B.A. 21 - Ryan 6 Before a crowd of approximately 6500, the Big Red of M.B.A. whipped the fighting Irish of Ryan 21 to 6, in one of the Maroons’ l est performances of the year. M.B.A. attained the first break of the game when David Duke recovered a Ryan fumble on the Irish 31. The Maroons capitalized immediately, scoring in eight i)lays. Following the kickoff, the Panthers were forced to punt after their series of downs; but the kick was short, angling out of bounds on the M.B.A. 40. The Maroons struck immediately, the majority of the gains coming from the bull-like charges of Billy Crawford ; they scored in twelve plays to give the Big Red a 14-0 advantage with 7:15 remain- ing in the first half. The third quarter, however, produced a different story. Tommy Donnelly returned the opening kickoff to his own 48, and the Irish moved the ball to the M.B.A. one-foot line in six plays. Richard Lisle then plunged into the end zone for the lone Ryan tally. The next 12 minutes saw a nip-and-tuck battle between the 35 yard lines. Then, with 8:51 remaining, Dick Husband pounced on a Pan- ther fumble on the Ryan 21. Seven plays later Ed Creagh plunged across the double stripe from the one foot line, and that put the game on ice for the Maroons. The final score was M.B.A. 21-Ryan 6. John 1 ' ranklin Georgk Creagii M.B.A. 28 - Cohn 0 An alert defense thrown up l)y M.B.A. helped the Maroons ruin hoinecoining for the insi)ired Black Knights of Cohn and notch up their thirty-fourth victory without a defeat. The Big Red got its first taste of pay dirt before making a first down. It came in the first quarter when an alert John Dale ])ulled down a Tiger pass and raced 70 yards through a stunned Cohn eleven into the end zone. Wdien Cohn failed on a fourth and two situation at mid-field late in the first quarter, the Maroons took over. Six jdays later Murphree threw a perfect strike to All South end David Duke, who was standing all alone in the end zone, and the Maroons led 14-0. i he out-manned Cohn eleven fought valiantly the entire first half hut was unable to score. A |)oor Cohn ])unt put M.B.A. in fine scoring ])osition. and with 7 :19 remaining in the first half, Muiqdiree skirted right end for 24 yards and the tally. Late in the third quarter Cohn threatene d strongly to score but was stopped on the 4 yard line. 1 he second half was marred by j)enalties and only one touchdown was scored. This occurred in the final quarter when quarterback Tom iMinplnee top2)ed a 58 yard scoring drive by sneaking over from 4 yards out. ILJ Dick Husband John Carpenter M.B.A. 14 - Springfield 0 The mighty Maroons intercepted a Springheld pass in the opening minutes and took advantage of a fourth down Jacket rushing failure, converting both into touchdowns and emerged witli a 14-0 victory. It took AI.H.A. just three ])lays to score with 3 :24 of the game gone after George ] IcGugin returned an intercepted flat i)ass 39 yards to Springfield’s 7 yard stripe. Then in the third ([uarter, Springfield tried for a yard on fourth down, failed; and M.B.A. took over on the 29. Five plays later, John Dale darted across and Billy Crawford’s ninth consecutive conversion from jdacement made the final, 14-0. This was the sixth straight win of the season for the Maroons and their thirty-fifth consecutive game without a loss. The victory also widened their edge in the long series with the Springfield Yellow lackets. M.B.A. 16 - DuPont 6 “After last week’s tough game with Springfield and Hillsboro com- ing up next week, they just were not mentally right for DuPont,” was the comment of Coach Tommy Owen. M.B.A. did, however, have l)Ower enough to push by DuPont 16 to 6. x either team threatened to score until late in the first period when the Big Red drove for their first six points. The drive started when DuPont s Ray Cooper took a high pass from center and got off a 17 yard punt to M.B.A.’s 47. On the following set of downs Ed Creagh pushed 17 yards to the Bulldog 31. Three plays later Creagh went into the end zone and Billy Crawford added the PAT. DuPont started their drive when Zollie Sircy intercepted a Big Red pass on his own 30 yard line. DuPont then began a long 70 yard march to notch their six points. As the half ended, the score was M.B.A. 7, DuPont 6. 1 he Maroons took the 2nd half kickoff and marched 62 yards to pay dirt. 1 he scoring play, was a beautiful 29 yard pass from Murphree to Duke. The final two points came on a safety ruling, as DuPont’s punter stepped out of the end zone. The game ended with M.B.A. trying frantically to score again. David Duke, John Dale, Alan Purdy, and Ed Creagh were standouts on defense. M.B.A. 0 - Hillsboro 13 Before 6500 fans, a determined Hillsboro team was not to be denied revenge for tbe humiliating defeats (66-6 and 40-7 ) of the past two years. M.B.A. received tbe opening kickoff and promptly fumbled on the first i)lay, P)ernie Thau recovering for the Iffirros. However, the concrete Maroon defense halted the Burro drive at the six. Likewise, a 70-yard drive by M.B.A. was stopped at the Burro 16. From this point the game seesawed between the 30 yard lines until a fake punt and long freak pass put Hillsboro in possession on M.B.A.’s 12 yard line. The Green and Gold were stopped cold for three downs at the two, hut on the fourth down Carl McNeese sped around left end for the score. The PAT was good, and the half ended with Hillsboro on top 7-0. The second half was likewise a battle between the 30 yard lines throughout the third quarter ; Init with three minutes gone in the fourth, Phili]) Grammer of Hillsboro sped 65 yards to the Maroon 5. On fourth down Bill Settle crashed over on an end-around, and the game ended with no further scoring. Standouts on defense for the Big Red were Iff 11 Barr with 10 tackles and 2 assists; Crawford, 9 and 2; and Creagh, 9. M.B.A. 32 - Litton 13 The jinx that the Maroons have had over Litton held true once again as M.ILA. thumped Litton 32 to 13. Litton’s (|uaterl)ack Lutch Burnette hauled in the opening boot and raced 33 yards with the pigskin to i)ut it on the Maroon’s 44 yard line. On the seventh play of the game Johnny Tomlinson scooted around his own right end to score. That lead, the only one Litton enjoyed, was short-lived. When M.B.A. got its chance at running the ball after the next kickoff, it too scored without relinquishing possession. Ed Creagh hauled in the boot and returned it 25 yards to the M.B.A. 40. Nine plays later fullback Billy Crawford scampered to pay dirt from the Litton three. Following the kickoff, Litton started another drive ; but it came to a screeching halt at the M.B.A. 29 when Spain fumbled and John Car- penter, rugged Maroon tackle, pounced on the loose ball. This fumble was the turning })oint in the game and the Maroons marched steadily on. M.B.A.’s final score came with 3 :59 left in the game as Murphree climaxed an 80 yard drive by racing around end from the seven. ■ ■ EXCHANGE BOWL GAME M.B.A. 7 - Kingsport 21 Fullback David Steadman and halfbacks Jerry Reese and Mike O’Neill paced Kingsport in rolling over the Maroons 21-7 in a highly offensive battle. M.B.A. made its only hid for a T.D. in the first half when it drove to the Kingsport 14 yard line hut was denied by an incomplete pass on fourth down. Following this drive, Kingsport struck quickly for a touchdown. The extra point was good and Kingsport led 7-0. After this touchdown, the teams settled down to playing defense, the only threats being made by M.B.A. on the Kingsport 29 and 31 yard lines. Immediately following the second half kickoff, Kingsport’s Jerry Reese broke away on a 44 yard jaunt to the Maroon 11. Soon after- ward, David Steadman hulled across for the Indians’ second touch- down. The Maroons’ Tommy Murphree received the following kickoff and in ten plays capped a drive that resulted in the Maroons’ only score of the night. Crawford kicked the extra point and the score stood Kings- port 14-M.B.A. 7. On the fifth play from scrimmage following the kickoff, Jerry Reese again broke away, this time for 55 yards, to produce Kingsport’s third touchdown. The extra point was good and the score read what was to he the final score: Kingsport 21-M.B.A. 7.

After dropping one to West, the determined Red fought back to win three out of the next four games. The Maroons had a tendency to be very erratic. They won one and lost one throughout the season and never could seem to reach their full potentiality. With such starters as Ed Creagh, Tommy Murphree, John Clay, Eddie Mur- rey, and John Dale, the Maroons were capable of a much better season than was shown with their 12-11 record. Keeping the first five fighting for their starting positions were Tommy Sloan, George McGugin, and John Muse, who each started at least one game In the 18th District Tournament, the underdog Maroons, with a great team effort, defeated Howard, who had beaten them twice during the season. In the second round, after a great 1st half effort that ended with West just one point ahead, the hustling Maroons ran out of steam in the second half and lost 64 to 50. GOLF Led by returning lettennan George McGugin, a member of last year’s State Championship team, the M.B.A. golf team is almost a sure bet to cop the city title. Aiding George, the number one man on the squad, are Ben Mayes, George Creagh, and Billy Crawford in that order. The team, coached by Dr. R. L. Sager, will journey to Chattanooga to compete in the Southern golf meet on Ai)ril 24, 25. Last year the team composed of Russell Hooper, Buddy Foxall, Randy Barker (a sophomore who has moved to Wilmington, Delaware), and George McGugin placed third in this Southern meet. G. Creagh, Mayes, Crawford, McGugin % Page 107 Page 108 M.llA s bascl)all team, under the able guidance of coaches Charlie Matlock and Hud Lyner, is looking forward to one of the best seasons the Maroons have had in many years. This year the Western Division, the one in which the Big J ed competes, has started a ‘‘round robin” schedule. With this schedule the team will i)lay eighteen games; whereas, last year they played only nine. The Big Red will he led by these eight returning lettermen : Eddie Benson, right field ; Anders Myhr, center field ; Carl Babb, shortstop ; Dick Williams, first base; Tom Roberts, left field; Jimmy Killebrew, catcher; and Reau Estes and Jack Hall, pitchers. These boys will be aided by Tate Bradley, Lewis Dale, Alan Wal- lace, Billy Wdiitmer, and Sam Pickering. If the pitching comes through, M.B.A. will be battling it out for the N.I.L. Championship.
