Under the supervision of first Mr. Dudley and later Mr. Molitoris the team ran in five meets. First the team was defeated 48-24 by Newark. In the Ivy League Relays they placed fifth. Next they lost to St. Bernard's by a score of 43Vz-28W. The fourth meet ended just as unsuccessfully by losing to St. Bernards and Delbarton. However, at the final Ivy League Meet at Delbarton the team picked up and finished fourth out of six teams, earning 16 points. Pete Herms, Adrian Maas, Bill Kettle, and the others earned a total of 92 points during the season, showing that Morristown's track team was really much more than its record revealed.

LEVESQUE 1955 Tennis Coach In 1954 the tennis team had a fairly good season consider- ing the circumstances. Due to the fact that competition was quite keen and to unfavorable weather conditions, the netmen succeeded in winning only two out of 7 of the scheduled matches. However, they made up for this record in the North Jersey Ivy League Tournament. Under the skillful playing of Captain Nick Baratoff, co-captains-elect Eric Lorentzen and John Vandegriff, and guided hy the coaching of Mr. Koehne, the team placed second only to Newark in the tourney.

Late in December Coach Makin was greeted by over thirty candidates from which he molded a successful team with a record of 10 and 7-third in the Ivy League. After a lopsided win over St. Bernard's and a close win over Eastern, we ran up against a tough Montclair Academy team, to whom we lost quite handily. But Bill Kettle scored 21 points to beat College High. After losing three straight games, we surprised Oratory with Don Lum and Bill Kettle getting 30 and 20 points re- spectively to lead the way. After three straight wins and a close loss to Montclair Academy we won a convincing game against College High with Kettle and Lum scoring 24 and 23 points respectively. Our most convincing win was in our second contest with Oratory, with Don Lum again pacing the way with 29 points. Don with 281 points-8th in the county-led Dave Hiley and Bill Kettle with 238 and 230 tallies respectively in the final scoring statistics. Milan Baran with 101 points and Bill Lum and Steve Edds both with 55 points added to the fine season. Basketball MR. MACKIN Coach Standing: Edds, Hiley, Kettle, Lum, W., Baran. Kneeling: Don Lum fCaptJ. M others lfauckep -- Morristown's 1955 hockey season proved to be a successful one. With Mr. Budd's coaching and Captain Fred Greenberg's outstanding leadership and playing ability, the team won six games and lost three. After winning six straight games, the hockey team went into a tailspin. However, this slump can be attributed to lack of ice, which has a distinct effect upon the players' skating. Despite these blemishes upon its record, the team is to be commended for its triumphs over Lawrenceville, Hill, and St. George, which schools are in size far out of Morristown's class. The excellent team play and stick handling of Jack Reilly, Fred Perry, Jack Zeis, and alternate captains Larry Ward and Nick Baratoff, together with the superb goal tending of Fred Greenberg, made this prosperous season possible.

Although bad weather in the latter part of the season played havoc with the schedule and their championship aspirations, they still achieved a good record of 9 wins and 6 losses. The team supported the pitching staff very well during the season, and this was quite evident in such batting averages as: Pete Herms' .366, Don Backes' .359 and Steve Edds, .325. Throughout the season the team was sparked by the brilliant pitching of Bill Lum and Don Backes. Not only did Don and Bill pitch well, but Don also hurled a shutout against Montclair Academy and a no-hitter against St. Bernard's! Thus it is that with this combination of good teamwork and coaching Morristown has good reason to be proud of its 1954 record. RECORD 4 ..............................

It was so popular that a room in the gym was set aside for it. Here Mr. Torre taught approximately twenty boys the art of self- defense. The boys showed so much enthusiasm in boxing that it is hoped that in the near future it will again become one of the school's varsity sports. MR.

MACKIN Coach In the fall of 1954 Morristown formed its first Cross Country Track Team under the supervision and coaching of Mr. Mackin. In all the team participated in four meets, three within the Ivy League and the fourth without. In its first meet the team placed second to Delbarton School. At Paterson Morristown came in third after Eastern and Delharton. For its third meet, the Morris County Meet, the team placed fifth after Morris Hills Regional, Dover High, Boonton High, and Delbarton. Finally, in the Ivy League Meet with Delharton, Eastern, Newark Academy, and Montclair College High, Mor- ristown succeeded in coming in fourth. Morristown's Cross Country Team, with the good running of Don Lum, Jim Peters. Adrian Maas, and with support from the other members, had a fairly good season for its first year.

Although he used the more experienced players as a core- Captain Ward, Totton, Baran, and Kettle-he constructed a team which was primarily of green material. The result was a poor record: 2 wins, 5 losses. But what they lacked in experience they made up in spirit and the desire to win, shown by the closeness of the Hun game and the fact that in the Montclair and Newark contests, the final whistle blew with Morristown on its opponents' goal line. The games were highlighted by the superb pass catching of Larry Ward and by the running of Milan Baran. The experience gained this season by both the coach and team, should contribute to a better record next year. QIDIBUIZS Z w x, P A Q!

Everyone partakes in at least one activity such as a basketball relay race, short dash, or perhaps a high jump contest. In all events, points may he scored for the rival clubs, Shongums and Whippanies. In addition the Glee Club performs as do the band and individual varieties. This year in the pennant decorated Boys' Gym, the event proved to be a very successful finish to the Fall term under the careful planning of Mr. Burke. Standing: Hedley, Budd, Ward, Edds, Peabody.

It is its duty to organize and conduct the parties and dances which are a very important part of school life. This year's Committee was fortunate in having such a capable chairman as Kim Carpenter. Under his management the Pep Rally, with which the football season commenced, the Halloween Party, Football Dance, Winter Dance, and Senior Prom were all great successes as well as other activities in which the Committee assisted. Carpenter, Wilkins, Bertha. bapel ummittee The Chapel is an integral part of Morristown, supplying the student with the spiritual element of a well rounded education. The Chapel is the responsi- bility of the Chapel Committee. It is the Committee's duty to care for the Chapel and to decorate it to meet the various religious occasions. It is a tedious job and one that requires much responsibility. The Committee is strictly a Junior post with a Senior advisor. This year, under Kim Carpenter's supervision, Alan Bertha and Bob Wilkins are doing an excellent job. This year the Radio Club has expanded in size and equipment. It has been well outfitted and is in the best condition ever. This has been accom- plished largely through the efforts of Tad Nobbe and Don Gallagher. The station itself was assembled from equipment donated by the earlier members. As a result the Club has kept radio contact with other ham sets in nearby localities. Much of the members' time has been devoted to im- proving the apparatus and to communicating with other amateur operators, and it is expected that in time the station will have a greater broadcasting range.

Advisor This year Morristown School has had a debating team for the second year in succession. The squad, under the super- vision and direction of Mr. Mackin, had an active schedule. The first debate was held in the fall at Delbarton School. The topic was: 'LResolved, That It Would Be Un-Nrnerican to Outlaw Communism in the United Statesf' Taking the affirma- tive and saying that it would be un-American, Ken Phillips and Paul Danco lost to their Delbarton opponents. Dave Laing and Adrian Maas took the negative side and lost by a small margin. In the winter the team had another debate with Delbarton. The topic this time was the national topic for high schools: Resolved That the United States Should Initiate a Policy of Free Trade Among Nations Friendly to Us. Taking the af- firmative Bob Hedley and Dick Stinson succeeded in winning their debate, as did Ken Phillips and Paul Danco, who also took the affirmative. Morristown's third team, Dave Laing and Don Lum, won their debate arguing for the negative. In early April Morristown again debated on Tariffs with Blair Academy, and in April the Debaters travelled to the Valley Forge Military Academy, in Pennsylvania to participate in a national tournament for prep schools. This tournament was a two-day affair in which each member of the team was called upon to debate both sides of the issue. library ummittee- With the assistance of Mr. Mackin, the Library Committee was revived this year. Since there is no regular librarian, the Committee, consisting of three Seniors and one Junior, was organized to take charge of the library's affairs. Although the work was new to Fred Greenberg, Bob Hedley, Eric Lorentzen, and Bob Wilkins, they deserve a great deal of credit for doing such a wonderful job in handling the library. MR.

Under the talented direction of Mr. Ralph Wallace, the Glee Club first performed on Sports Night, offering as a highlight a new harmony rendition of the School Song. A week later, it again lent its talents to the Christmas Chapel Service before the vacation. In March an operetta cast comprised chiefly of Glee Club members presented The Mikado, and it turned in an excellent show. This annual Gilbert and Sullivan affair was a high point in the calendar year. The last appearance of this group is on Prize Day when they offer a variety of pieces before the commencement exer- cises begin. MR.

The school paper, like any other organization in a school, has its particular function. At Morristown the school paper brings to the student body the news of the past and future events, cartoons, personal opinions, and points of view concern- ing various school year activities. The News has also been an important factor in the stimulation of school spirit and the unification of the students as a group. The News is very fortunate in having such a competent editor-in-chief this year in Eric Lorentzen. Eric also received excellent support from his assistant editor., Bob Wilkins, his sports editor, Bob Hedley, his business manager, Dave Laingz, and the rest of his staff. Together they have kept the students well informed, amused, and inspired throughout each edition of the paper. ERIC LORENTZEN Editor-in-Chief The Salmagundi originated in 1903. It was organized by the Senior Class for the purpose of presenting to the student body a clear and interesting record of their class and school year. It was a hook which was treasured by each member throughout the years as a memory of his wonderful prep school days. Through the year the Salmagundi and its functions have become a tra- dition, changing only in style. The 1955 Salmagundi Staff sincerely hope that we have successfully followed this pattern in the 52nd edition. balmagunhi 9taff-- ROBERT HEDLEY Editor-in-Chief Standing: Maas-Adrian, Totton, Laing, Lum-Donald.

University of North Carolina 1115192 Sixth :Farm 1.. i be Qtuhent uunril - The Student Council at Morristown plays an integral part in the school life. Not only does it function as a governing body, but it also represents a major link in the student-faculty relationship. Being a member of the Student Council is more than just an honor. It is a serious job which requires a great deal of hard work and involves much responsibility. A councilman is supposed to be a model in whatever he does and an example for the younger boys to follow. just how does a student get on the council? He is elected by the students and approved by the Headmaster. Thus, by having elections of this sort, the student body is assured a large voice in the choosing of its council members. This year's council is headed by the very capable Larry Ward. Together with his senior assistants, Fred Greenberg, Bob Hedley, Eric Lorentzen, and Don Lum and the two junior representatives, Chace Peabody and Jack Reilly, Larry has created a liaison between the Headmaster and the student body which has led to one of the most successful school years in Morristown's history.

There was an enrollment of fourteen boys, requiring the use of only one of six dormitories. Both scholastically and athletically things were in a bad way. But today, thirteen years later, the situation has completely reversed itself. The school is filled to capacity, a scholastic reputation and an athletic record worthy of a much larger school have been established. Innumerable improvements have been made. And how has this change taken place? There are two reasons: Mr. and Mrs. Wilkie. The boy is father to the man. A race of gentlemen can only be produced by fastening in the boy the qualities that can make for health, strength, and a manly desire to bless, benefit, and serve the race. -so reads the inscription by Thomas Arnold which hangs on the wall of Mr. Wilkie's office. It is a perfect statement of his philosophy, which has been molded by experience during twenty-five years of independent school teaching. By creating a student government, by stressing responsibility, and by establishing a golden set of standards Mr. Wilkie has built an organization which we, the Class of 1955, feel cannot be excelled. However, it is certain that this could not have taken place without Mrs. Wilkie. Anyone who glances in the office during the week will find her working away. In one person, she is secretary, business manager, and a mother to one hundred and thirty-two boys. The Class of '55 owes a tremendous debt to her. For without her aid, we would probably be just beginning to think about applying to a college. Again, we express our appreciation for all the Wilkies have done for Morristown and for the Class of '55. Furthermore, we thank them for im- parting to us some of their philosophy and character, and thus enable us to start life on our own with hope of succeeding. MR. and MRS. WILKIE 18 THE CHAPEL . . . has been a place of non-sectarian worship for the boys of Morristown from the beginning. The simplicity of style is a well remembered feature to all who have taken part in the in- formal services. Years ago, guest ministers came to run the services but now this is the Headmaster's privilege. Shortly after World War I, the chapel was dedicated to those graduates of the school who had died fighting for their country, and a plaque in their memory is hung above the door. Perhaps the faith of the school is best pre- sented in the words of the prayer: 0 God, Holy Ghost, Sanctifier of the faithful, visit, we pray Thee, the Masters and Boys of the Morristown School with Thy love and favorg enlighten our minds more and more with the light of the everlasting Gospel, graft in our hearts a love of the truth, increase in us true religion, nourish us with all goodness, and of Thy great mercy keep us in the same, 0 Blessed Spirit, Whom, with the Father and Son together, we worship and glorify as one Cad, world without end. Amen. 15 THE BOYS' GYMNASIUM . . . was conceived in the early days of the School, circa 1908, by the students themselves. It was they who started a campaign to raise money for its erection by sacrificing part of their al- lowances and giving plays, the proceeds of which went to the fund. This amount saved was supplemented by the parents and friends of the School and two generous donations - in memory of Anson Hard Boulton and in memory of Mrs. Mary Willis. However, the spirited unselfishness on the part of the boys was such that the building was dedicated upon comple- tion in 1911: Boys' Gymnasium . In the spring of 1950 tragedy struck as one night the School stood watching helplessly while their Gym burned to the ground. The replacement efforts were painful, but the stu- dents proved that the same spirit which had instigated the first construction so long ago was not dead. Many offered twenty-five dollar pledges toward the new fund, most of which they had to eam. They gave basehalls, foot- balls, helmets, and other equipment to help alleviate the disastrous situation and, again with the help of friends and parents, the build- ing was re-dedicated in 1951, completed in 1953, and now once more stands proudly erect. 13 THE FACULTY HOUSE . . . hecame a part of Morristown School imme- diately following the turn of the century. It was used till the late thirties as an infirmary. Cases could he isolated, and there were nurses present to care for the sick. Before 1922, the infirmary also served as a library, when the one in the Main Building became inadequate around 1913. In 1942, when Mr. Wilkie became Head- master, the infirmary had been closed for some years, but as the School started to grow once more, it was reopened to house faculty mem- bers and their families, the infirmary facilities having been moved to the Main Building. -,Q . .Ann--.-U.. ... . x I I I 1 I x 4 2 5 E 5 ! 11 THE HEADMASTER'S COTTAGE . . . was erected between the years 1912 and 1914. An interesting anecdote concerning its origin is that the children of Mr. Butler fthen acting Headmasterl resided over the chapel. During a very special service one day, a commotion could he heard emanating from their room above. It was soon after decided that, to insure no recurrence of this, the Headmaster and his family should have a home of their own out of the Main Building. The building is located on a gentle rise at the entrance to the School. The left wing of the building was not part of the original plan, but was added shortly afterwards. E E I 1 Q 9 THE CRANE LIBRARY . . . traces its beginning to 1920 shortly after the first Parents' Association came into existence. It was the endeavor of this association to eval- uate the needs of the school and try to satisfy them. Thus a drive was commenced to build a library to replace the inadequate facilities behind the Common Room in the Main Build- ing. Mr. Richard T. Crane soon became inter- ested in this campaign and generously donated almost the entire sum needed. While Mr. Crane took care of the financial end, Mrs. Crane pro- vided the furnishings to make the building into a homelike reading room. It was com- pleted and dedicated in February, 1922. A book drive was launched, and many par- ents and other associates of the School con- tributed freely. Proceeds from school plays bought more books, and hy June of that same year there were 1,900 volumes in the new Crane Library. d ,wr is 33 ,sm Q nl' L ,A 7 ....,.z A E ,. mmunu I f fs A -Q. UPPER HOUSE and LOWER HOUSE . . . were part of the original plan of the School's layout. Connected to the Main Building by glass enclosed colonnades, they served much the same purpose in 1898 as they do now. Upper House, always a dormitory and study hall, did at one time have a carpenter shop in the basement which has since been converted into classrooms. Lower House has had as its main capacity the task of feeding Morristown School for fifty- seven years. In days gone by, the dining room was the scene for school dances, and though now used for boys, the upstairs housed the cooks, waitresses, and chambermaids. , vi. W ,M fm, jf, THE MORRISTOWN SCHOOL . . . traces its foundation to 1898 when the buildings which we know today were erected. Previous to that a small school, St. Bartholomew's, ex- isted a short time on the same grounds, and it had been built on a former private golf course. As the inset shows, things were pretty bare at the start. Now Morristown has a warmth, high standard of education, but most impor- tant to its existence, a tradition which in the Schoolis fifty-seven years has been its grad- uates' pride. To this, the class of 1955 is hon- ored to become a member.

Allllr. Sinbn ibnmer Burke whom we will long afterward speak about as Coach , It is difficult to determine just what will be most remembered about Mr. Burke, for he has come to mean a great deal in our lives at Morristown in many ways. Yet whether it be his enthusiasm over his intramural groups, those unending sermons in Job Assembly, his disciplin- ing the little kidsn and sometimes we ourselves, or his un- failing ultimate understanding, in our graduating year we ex- press our appreciation to him. May those of tomorrow benefit as much from their association with Mr. Burke as we of the class of 1955 have.
