{ Page 2 MONTGOMERY BELL ACADEMY NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENT BODY Coleman Harwell Editor L. It is with most profound respect and gratitude that we, the mem- bers of the Senior Class of 1961, dedicate this publication of The Bell to Mrs. Rowland Lowry. As head of the English department. she has enabled M.B.A. to produce English scholars who have not only a wealth of knowledge, but the capacity to think, as evidenced by the success of her graduates in later life. We will long remember and revere Mrs. Lowry for her soliloquies and discussions on life, for her understanding aid, for her cheerful manner. Although realizing this re])aration inadequate for her services, we dedicate this annual to one who has dedicated her life to us, Mrs. Rowland Lowry. -DEDICATI Page 4 FOREWORD This book represents a year in the life of a great institution. We hope that it gives an ac- curate picture of all phases of school life ; ath- letics, organizations, and scholarship. Indeed, we will look back through these pages to find our successes and failures which taught us the lessons of life. Thus, this publication is in- valuable to us as a reminder of the past. No one could ever determine the broad scope of college preparation which we have received here. It is quite ea.sy, however, to see the re- I suits. We entered as boys; we leave as men. This truth is the basis of Montgomery Bell Academy. r BOARD OF Mr. Stirton Oman Vice-Chairman of the Board Mr. Ferris C. Bailey Secretary Mr. John S.

But the class is the most effective organization to which we belong, acting as an ideal segment of society in which we learn to blend our personalities. As members of our class, we have studied and practiced the most important lesson of life: building- enduring friendships as we become men. CLASSES Page 18 we entered as boys . . .

In the features section of The Bell, we, the student body, would like to present just a few of the people who have made this school year the success which it has been. We wish to pay tribute to our cheerleaders, homecoming- participants, s])onsors, and personalities of the year. These are the ones we think have been the highlight of our past year, and we want to thank them for all that they have contributed to continue the respected name of M.B.ik.

Page 73 One of the main factors in the success of ISt.B.A. as a top preparatory school is the existence and promotions of its oi gani- zations. As a boy enters M.B.A., he is usually very inexperienced in knowing how meetings are conducted. But by becoming an active mem- ber of certain clubs, he will gain essential experiences which will prove invaluable to him in his later life. In speech clubs, he learns to tlrnk clearly and speak eft ' ec- tively on his feet. In other clubs, such as the Key Club or the Hi-Y he learns to give some of his own ideas about a problem as well as listen to the ideas of others, thus broaden his view- point on certain matters. He learns how to conduct him- self correctly in serious moments as well as in humorous ones. Through membership in the Student Council or the Honoi Council, a Iioy assists in the government and disciidinary trou- bles of the school. Through active membership m organiza- tions, he acquires skill in leadership, and most important of all he builds enduring friendships through the planning of social activities and charital lc piojccts. All of these things which a member learns will benefit him o-reatly as he grows older and gets out into the world. Thus since his first day at M.B.A., he has matured greatly and leaves the school as a man. ORGANIZATIONS Page 74 “TOTOMOI” Totonioi was organized in 1954 by Dr. R. L. Sager with the assistance of Inman Fox, Robert McNeilly, and others. The purpose of this organization is to honor students who have made out- standing contributions in the fields of scholarshi]), publications, students government, athletics, and organizations. To he “tapped” for membership in Totomoi is the highest honor that a hoy can achieve while attending Montgomery Bell Academy. Its membership is composed of Seniors; however, hoys may he “tapped” at the end of their Junior year to serve as the following year’s officers. The officers consist of a President, a Vice- President, and a Secretary-Treasurer. The primary ])urposes of Totomoi are: (1) To ijromote new student activities and traditions; especially, to further high moral character and Christian development. (2) To encourage, support, and otherwise increase student interest and ])articipation in all existing activities and traditions of Montgomery Bell Academy. (3) To honor by recognition of their merit outstanding students, alumni, and faculty of Montgomery Bell Academy. Totomoi for 1960-61 consisted of: President David Walker, Vice-President Tommy Worrall, Secretary-Treasurer Allan Terry, and members Doug Ligon and Morgan Kousser. Allan Terry Page 76 SENIOR HONOR SOCIETY This national society honors the outstanding students in all high schools throughout the country. It serves as a criteria for those students who strive for academic achievement. To become eligible at M.B.A., a hoy taking four subjects must have three consecutive emesters of a ninety or above average ; those boys taking five subjects are required to have an eighty-eight average, and seniors an eighty-five average. It is indeed rewarding when a boy’s hard work results in his election to this national society. First Rozv: Nicholas, kiRon Risen, Api)fel, Kousser, Hutton.

JUNIOR HONOR SOCIETY Page 77 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council was designed to allow each hoy in school the opportunity to participate in the government and other ac- tivities of the school. The authority of the Council extends iroin disciplinary problems to the improvements and changes on the campus.

Page 78 HONOR COUNCIL The Honor Council is now in its sixteenth year at M.B.A. Its purpose is to promote lionor and Christian character among the student liody and to punish all violators of its constitution. The council is patterned after that of the University of Virginia, which was one of the first schools in the nation to ado])t the idea of holding stu- dents responsible for honesty on tests. Representatives to the council are elected on a class basis; four from the senior class, three from the junior class, two from the so])homore class, two from the freshman class and one from the junior school. The officers this year are Rhoads Zimmerman, president ; Tommy Worrall, vice-])resident ; and Tony Todd, secretary-treasurer. Page 79 First Rozv: Neel, Thompson, Zimmerman, Sadler, Mooreheacl.

Under sponsorship hy the Nashville Kiwanis Cluh, the purposes of the Key Club are develoji leadershi]) and jirovide ex])erience in work- ing with others for the community. The Cluh this year has sponsored two school dances and put on a raffle to raise funds for a gift for the school. Also it has heljied several organizations such as Big Brothers.

P ae 82 DEBATE TEAM In its fourth yen.! under tlie g’uidcince of Mrs. Norton Campbell, the AI.B.A. Debate Team has upheld its fine record in the Southern Division again. Finishing third in the contest held at Emory University, the negative team of Morgan Kousser and John Chaffin showed fine ability. The af- firmative team, composed of two freshmen, Mike Mooty and Mike lF andon, debating against seniors at Emory won two out of live debates and showed great promise in store for future years at M.B.A. The De- bate learn has been (juite successful this year.

Anonymous ATHLETICS Page 90 SPORTS AND THE MBA MAN ] r.B.A. builds men in two ways which are equally important, for one cannot exist successfully without the other. M.IhA. huilds men mentally and physically. The sports program at M.Ih.T. is designed to keep the Montgomery Hell student in top i)hysical condition to aid in the growth of outstanding mental ability. In the Inisiness world today, a graduate must have the physical as well as the mental ability to complete his vork or he will fail to achieve success in any profession. Toward this end the Montgomery Bell sports program is being projected hy coach Tommy Owen and coach Charlie Matlock, both very dedicated and cai)ahle men who are con- stantly concerned with the welfare of the M.B.A. student, ddie Montgomery Bell coaches labor continuously to see that the M.B.A. student is not only the best men- tally ecjuipped graduate but also the best physically equipped graduate. We, the stu- dents of IM.B.A., will always he dee])ly in debt to our coaches for their part in mak- ing men of the IMontgomery Bell graduate. When the M.B.A. student leaves to further his education in college, he must not forget that only through his participation in studies and athletics at IMontgomery Bell Academy was a successful high school life possible; and only by utilizing the same resources can he have a successful college life and, eventually, a successful busi- ness life. John P. Chaffin Page 91 The Currey Gymnasium Page 93 FOOTBALL The Montgomery Bell football season started in September with the Crimson Tide ready to challenge any opponents. The Big Red deserves the praise of every Montgomery Bell student; for even in the face of overwhelming ' challenges like Lit- ton, Ryan, and Hillsboro, the Crimson Tide stayed in the game and kept fighting- even when failure seemed evident. Throughout the season the M.B.A. team tried to play the best game possible; and even though they met with failure sometimes, their fighting and persistence finally paid off in the games with Gallatin and Springfield in which the Big Red reached the coveted goal of victory. As long as we of M.B.A. can look back and say that we tried our best, we can look back with pride on a suc- cessful football season. As the anonymous poem states, we must keej) the right si)irit and not think only of winning the game hut of how well we played the game. Obviously .the Big Red did not forget their duty to the school and the students, for they never showed dis- couragement but continued to fight for Montgomery Bell. Of all the qualities a school can possess, the two most important are a fighting spirit and sportsmanship. If we of Montgomery Bell can truly say that we ])ossess sportsmanship and that we played the best game possible, we have won every game we have j layed and we will win every game we play in the future. Always may we of Montgomery Bell do our best and play with honor in every game we play. JoTTN P.

The outlook finally cleared for M.B.A. with the dctory over T.P.S. in the season’s sixth game where Warner, Dilley, and Doyle began to show their potentialities. Finally the Big Red met up with Howard a second time and, with the playing of Warner and Doyle, de- feated them. The full potentialities of the Big Red ])layers was only realized in a few games against T.P.S., North, and Howard in which the Crimson Tide finally swept to victory. During the course of the season the successes of the varsity scpiacl were over- shadowed by the eighth grade team which succeeded in winning over twelve games in succession. Seemingly, there is an excellent varsity basketball team coming up from the eighth grade for the future of Montgomery Bell. John P.

EIGHTH GRADE VARSITY BASKETBALL WRESTLING Wrestling is one of Montgomery Bell’s newest si)orts which, started in 1959 by Mr. Carter, has developed a successful varsity scpiad. Since then wrestling has been accepted by the students with tremendous enthusiasm and interested snp])ort. Not only is wrestling new at M.B.A., but it is also consideraldy new in the South. How- ever, the im])ortance of wrestling as a spectator sport is growing swiftly, and it is becoming one of the most interesting sports to enjoy interscholastic competition. It is certainly believed that wrestling will eventually become one of Montgomery Bell’s sports jirograms, both by the students and the interscholastic leagues. Already, the M.B.A. squad with such men as David Walker leading it has .shown itself to be very proficient against such teams as C.M.A. and Castle Heights. Hopes are to greatly expand this program in the future. John P. Chaffin First Roiv: Trimble, Brown, Reuschlc, Orr, Risen, Carlisle, Householder.

Page 107 RIFLE The rifle team had the most successful year in its three-year history. With the instruction and leadership of Staff Sergeant Richard Devon and Corporal William Cox, both of the United States Marine Corps, and Charles Ransom, captain of the team, this sc|uad ])laced fourth out of eleven schools in the interscholastic tournament on March 25. In addition, Allen Kennedy, the highest shooter on the team, i)laced second out of fifty-five competitors in individual tournament standings. For the first time the team members com])eted for the National Rifle Association ratings. Cam INTcCoy and Allen Kennedy qualified for the Expert Rifleman Award, the second highest in N.R.A. standings. Likewise, three other members — John Chaf- fin, )im Lackey, and Charles Ransom — achieved the Sharpshooter Ninth Bar, which is the third highest rating.

Page 109 TRACK This year, the i)ros])ects are that M.B.A. will have another fine track team. Led hy several lettermen, the JMaroons will he a real threat in the Banner Relays and the T.S.S.A.A. District, Regional, and State track meets. Already an M.B.A. record has been broken. Russ Dilley in qualifying for the Banner Relays threw the discus 142 feet 6 inches. .Allen (Spook) McDaniel and John Stevens both have fine clockings in the mile run and high and low hurdles re- spectively. John has the fa.stest time in the N.I.L. in the high hurdles at the present time. Ric Mellon, at this time, has run the 880 just one-tenth of a second more than the best time in the N.I.L. M.B.A.’s relay teams are holding their fine tradition of speed. The 440, mile, and two-mile relay teams all qualified for the Banner Relays with creditable times. Bobby Fox in the 100, Robert Orr in the 220, Mike Doyle in the 440, Tommy Cor- coran in the high jump, ' Pom Scarborough in the broad jump, and Phil Husband in the shot put round out this versatile scpiad.

Sager has a full calen- dar of games scheduled for this year. With men like Frank Hutchison, Dee Metcalf, Rhodes Zimmerman, and Buddy Vaughn returning to the team from last year, the Big Red golfers look forward to a successful season on the green. Along with the Southern Tourney and various other meets, there are hopes to take the N.I.L. cham- pionship. 1 he M.B.A. golfers are hoping to carry the entire season and finish by tak- ing the interscholastic trophy at the end of the year. With such an outstanding team, Montgomery Bell can be sure of being well re])resented at the golf tournaments. John P. Chaffin First Row: Vaughn, Clayton, McCabe.

Rule and comi)rised of veteran seniors Dudley Warner and Eddie DeZevallos, hacked up hy such veterans of the courts as Buntin, Clark, Imkes, and Braden, who are rc] resenting M.B.A. in tennis for their second and third years. Scheduled are Ca.stle Heights and McCallie which the team hopes will lead to the N.I.T.. champion- ship and trojdiy for the sixteenth consecutive year. With the various tournaments at Atlanta, Memphis, and Chattanooga ahead, everything ]:)oints to another successful year of N.I.L. competition for the Big Red tennis team. John P.

Page 11 S BASEBALL Coach Matlock’s summer baseball campaign will probably prove successful this year. Already the Big Red have won five out of their first six games. The team is made up of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and only two seniors. Pitching comes from the arms of Dave Startup, John Mazach, Gordon Smith, and John Reed. Hitting power booms from the bats of Spike Hupka, Paul Francis, and John Myhr. Already this year the team has enjoyed one of its sweetest victories in years as they defeated West. The spirit on the team is the best it has been in years. Much is expected from this team, and the team hopes to add to M.B.A.’s spring sports success.
