Because he is a very warm and down-to-earth persong because he is eager for each one of us to do wellg and because he has encouraged each one of us to be ourselves, we, the Class of 1968, dedicate our Ver- dian to GUY M.

As the new sixth formers return to school in the fall they are still fifth formers in mental attitude and posture. In the fall of their final year the step of taking the initiative, of moving into leadership is a difficult one. They wait for a nudge: they look for someone else to do the starting. Wears ago as a brand new Headmaster I remember suffering from the same ailmentg in the very small school I ran, I learned that every activity, every innovation started from the Headmaster's desk.J Gradually the activities gain momentum and it is not long before the seniors acquire the same outlook and sense of responsibility as their predecessors. It is then that those in the most responsible posts begin to appreciate new values in their lives and in the lives of their classmates. Friends of long standing take on a different complexion when they fa.il to complete an assignment needed badly on a fixed date. Responsibility falls back on the head man who forsakes all GISBAIGGD, study or recreation-to complete the job on which his friend failed. Then there is the new appreciation of TIME. All those golden moments which had been gloriously wasted in hacking around in the past- how wonderful to have only a few of them. Now is the time our responsible senior learns to squeeze the hours and squeeze the minutes so that he produces ever so much more than he had before. Now a minute is sixty seconds worth of distance run . Now our boy has become a man. Philip M. B. Boocock PHILIP M. B. BOOCOCK B.A., Litt.D., Rutgers 59 20 . ASSOCIATE HEADMASTER When l was in school, the latest word in educational circles was to teach for the present and not the past. Now we sohoolmasters are told on all sides that we must educate for the future, not the present. Educationally, the present is out of date. Continuous and ever-accelerating change is the pattern of life we must count on and plan for: thus, it would be a serious mistake to vegetate contentedly in the false security of past success and to teach for what was the present or even the future a few years ago. Our teaching must not only keep pace in all areas of knowledge, but try to set the pace whenever possible. However, in this world of change, some values do remain constant and we must not lose sight of these. We must continue to instill the love of learning, to develop vigorous intellects with insatiable curiosity, and to promote the ability to think clearly and to question. Finally, we must foster the development of those resources of mind and heart that will enable us to use best our leisure time, for we are promised more leisure than ever before. It will give us a greater chance to discover ourselves, and also to discover other people who may be quite different. We shall have a greater chance to enjoy our world, and to make it a better place. We should teach that one does not come without the other. Pliny H. Hayes, III PLINY H. HAYES, lll B.A., Yale 21 AUSTIN MCC. FOX, Chairman B.A., Uniong M.A., Harvard WILLIAM L.

WATERS B.A., Dartmouth 23 The aims of the English Department are probably not much different from what they were twenty years ago. They were then, and are now, to teach boys to think clearly, and to read, write, and speak well. One difference today, however, is that we require term papers, and hence, we teach techniques of organization and bibliography as preparation for these papers as well as for the long papers students will be required to do in college. Another difference is that we read more difficult literature and more criticism than we used to, and we deal with different kinds of criticism too. Austin MCC. Fox DSW .

We have abandoned sectioning by ability in order to reduce the lectures, which the whole class attends, to twice a week. The other three class hours per week are attended in sections for spontaneous discussion. The basic reading is a series of booklets devoted to and illustrative of specific historical problems from which the student is expected to draw his own inferences and organize the justification for his own conclusions as well as master the facts.

The extension of foreign language teaching into the elementary school has allowed the massive introduction of literature and civilization into the third and fourth year high school courses. The new science of linguistics has provided us with stimulating and very useful insights into language. Moreover students today make much more use of their foreign languages than they did in past years-in Peace Corps work, in graduate study, and in travel abroad. Albert Ft. Sutter X, WILLIAM F.

STRACHAN, Chairman A.B., Middlebury: A.M.T., Harvard MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT The mathematics curriculum has undergone a careful but steady change over the past ten years. New courses and methods of teaching have been adopted as a result of the introduction of new or modern mathematics. The best parts of these newer courses have been carefully inserted into the older courses to give a good balance to the overall curriculum makeup. As a result the old divisions have given way to a continuous course from the fifth grade to the sixth form. Arithmetic and algebra, algebra and geometry, and geometry-and trigonometry are all intermixed: calculusrwhich combines all the basic disciplines has been introduced at the sixth form level. Changes will continue in the future as new and better ideas for teaching mathematics are developed. Perhaps significant here is the introduction of the computer into mathematical training. Computers are the tools of the now and the future and we are fortunate to have access to DAVID A. OCKERMAN B.S., State University of New York College at Brockport one at Nichols. David G.

SEAMANS B.A., Buffalo SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Although the changes that have taken place in the sciences in the past twenty years have been many and vast, the one over-riding change has been the tremendous growth in our knowledge. It has become manifestly impossible to cover the material of a science in any course and greater stress on generalization has been the result. From the point of view of a liberal education, this change has been most desirable, for we must now stress the ability to reason more than has ever been done before. Edgar E. Anderson RICHARD B.

DOUGLAS E. BROWN B.S., M.A., State University of New York College at Buffalo 32 RELIGION The main purpose of the Religions course at Nichols is to study objectively the great religions of mankind and thereby to come to appreciate their finest qualities. It is hoped that such a study will lead to a better understanding of the various peoples and nations of the world and thus foster peace and good will among men. SAMUEL L. HERB Messiah College, State University of New York at Buffalo ART Mr. Brown introduces his students to a variety of art materials, as well as to techniques and forms of expression. He also provides them with opportunities to use actively their new knowledge while encouraging the development of a deeper appreciation for art. LIBRARY The McNutt Memorial Library, supenlised by Mrs. Stewart, is a popular haven for students and faculty. Containing over 6,000 volumes, this library fulfills the strenuous demands of supplementing courses and assisting term paper writers. The wide variety of periodicals provides everyone with relaxing and informative reading. Art borrowed each month from the Albright-Knox Art Gallery enhances the McNutt Library's attractiveness, which contributes to the warm and relaxing atmosphere so conducive to learning. MICHAEL G. O'CONNELL B.S., M.S., State University of New York College at Buffalo MRS. CHARLES H. STEWART INDUSTRIAL ARTS DRIVER EDUCATION Industrial Arts is offered at Nichols to all Junior School students. Under the supervision of Mr. O'Connell they learn the proper and safe way to use the tools and machinery found in the well equipped school shop. The boys construct projects in wood, ceramics, metal, plastic, and leather. ln the graphic arts shop students learn first hand the fundamentals of the printing industry and publish the Junior School newspaper, The Stentorian. Before school four mornings of the week, Mr. O'ConneIl offers behind-the-wheel instruction in the driver education car. Students enrolled in the course learn the rules of the road and thqsafe handling of the car, and acquire sportsmanlike habits of driving. In class on the fifth morning, the novice drivers learn the mechanics of the car, the laws governing driving, and insurance coverages. In addition, movies and discussions help solve some of the problems confronting a teen-age driver. 33 ATHLETIC DIRECTORS Our athletic policy at Nichols provides well A - rounded athletic participation for all the students. A We hope that our athletes enjoy their activityg it ' certainly helps to lessen the ever increasing .U . A academic pressures. Our coaches try to instill y r good sportsmanship along with the skills needed L A in their sport. We hope our boys will acquire a life- A long love for athletic activity. Donald L.

The basic function is to . MRS. LESTER E.

Alumni contributions to the Annual Giving Campaign increased by more than fifty percent during the last two years. Other fund-raising projects this year included the Scholarship Ball and the Third Nichols Collegiate Hockey Tournament. The Alumni Scholarship Program was expanded to include four partial scholarships designated as Alumni Scholarships. A The projects bringing Alumni to the School have been almost as important as their financial support. Hockey Night at Nichols was a most pleasant occasion at which Alumni and friends gathered at the School for dinner prior to a Varsity Nichols hockey game. Equally enjoyable were the Christmas luncheon, the two family skating nights during the winter, and the golf outing and dinner in the spring. These activities, which brought Alumni into contact with Nichols, have been extremely important in promoting interest and support from the Alumni. James M. Wadsworth James M.

BUTZEFI 1893-1967 Dr. Butzer was a very special man. He dedicated his life to helping people and fostering peace and good will among them. Albert Butzer, one of the most patient and sincere of men, was at home in every environment and was never too busy to stop and listen to another's problems. He was easy to confide in because he had the rare ability to see only the good in a person and to make him feel good and believe that life was worth living. Those who knew Dr. Butzer will never forget that serene air of greatness which surrounded himg the humbleness with which he spokeg the very wise and practical advice he offeredg his warm and reassuring smileg and the bright twinkle in his time-lined eyes. Many more of us than he ever imagined attempt to practice what he taught and demonstrated by example. Each of us who knew Albert Butzer, who gave so much more to life than he took from it, will cherish the memory of his friendship.

Harvey Goldstein, Justin White, George Kloepfer PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE The Class of 1968 has reflected to a considerable extent the trends of our generation. lt has been individualistic in its behavior and idealsg it has exhibited a keen sensitivity to personal relationshipsg it has demonstrated an awareness of the conflict of values both within and outside Nichols walls, it had shown an intellectual and emotional perceptiveness of the complexities of life. Although often skeptical in its approach to specific problems, the Class of 1968 has displayed a greater degree of certainty and purposefulness than is commonly ascribed to our generation. lt had attacked its problems with enthusiasm, intensity, and confidence. Both academically and athletically, the Senior Class has evinced a spirited pride of accomplishment, as exemplified by the lengthy honor rolls and the superlative varsity team records. The committee chairmen and editors of publications have expressed a quiet but pervasive school spirit shared by the entire class. In contrast with the dubious predictions concerning the future of our generation, the destiny of the Class of 1968 appears promising. The class possesses a sense of humor-a quality which enables it to view both success and disappointment with objectivity and resiliency. lt has the perspective and maturity to decide what it wants and the training, motivation and rational ability to implement these decisions. David T. Karzon A flip ofthe coin decides disagreement.

Without any choice our class, as classes before were and classes after us will be, is at the threshhold of the world of winners and losers. However, we cannot, upon leaving Now who's right? Tom Szydlowski, Pete Demakos, Dave Nichols Nichols, judge our success or failure here by our rank or by our athletic records. Our success must depend on our own educational and personal maturing and our contributions to Nichols. Our growth as individuals is not as tangible as our contributions, which cover a wide range of categories. lt will not be apparent next year, but the Sophomore Class has grown, is growing, and will continue to grow both academically and personally.

He moves into a completely new environment and for the first time is really on his own. He must seek out the knowledge that is necessary in order to survive. At the beginning of the year he feels that he is but a small fish in a big pond, but gradually he begins to find his place in the Upper School. The third form has found its place at Nichols and has started to make contributions through athletics and extracurricular activities. At various times during the year more than a fourth of the freshmen made Honors. This year the Class of '71 was also well represented on almost every Junior Varsity team. To say whether this class will be a great one at this point would be hazardous. To do so would be like judging a race that has just begun. l believe that this year's third form will leave its mark on the annals of That was the assignment?

One of the earliest and most far-reaching projects of the year was the formation of the wrestling program. A volunteer student maintenance crew was formed in the spring to help keep our campus in more respectable condition. The seniors were given the opportunity to take a typing course. Of course, there was the annual exchange with the Buffalo Seminary, and this year the Council organized an exchange with Amherst High School. Another Council resolution produced the possibility of a trip to the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in the fall of 1968. Actions of community interest included Nichols participation in the One-on-One program, the tutorial program in cooperation with Temple Beth Zion, and the support of our Philippine Foster child, Miguel Reyes. The Council joined the New York State Association of Student Councils in an attempt to burst the confined bubble of Nichols life. Encouraged by increased interest on the part of the student body, the 1967- 1968 Student Council continued former projects and instituted new programs with the hope that later student governments at Nichols will continue them with the same success and enthusiasm experienced this year. The wrestling program is a great success. Robbie Peterson, Tom Botsford, Ken Sullivan f SEC? 4 :ggi Peterson hawks directories for the Council.

KELLER, co-editors Although remaining within the framework of tradition, Verdian 1968 is quite different compared to other Verdians. We added sixteen pages, bringing the total number of pages to 232, we used a dull finish paper in order to eliminate glareg we changed the cover fabric designg we used a newly invented type faceg and we rearranged the pagination-to mention only a few innovations. Filling the need for more pictures and following the yearbook trend toward all pictures and little copy, the first fifteen pages of this year's book are devoted entirely to views of the school and school life. This introductory section and the senior section were designed in the belief that the reader's memory and thoughts should be the copy instead of editorial comment. X The Verdian staff hope that our effort will enable you to bring back into focus blurred memories of Nichols and the year 1967-1968. ,ug V?

DAUTCH, editor-in-chief MAXON R. DAVIS, managing editor The Nichols News publicizes Nichols School more than any other newspaper in the Free World. It covers all significant aspects of Nichols life, including athletic contests, chapel programs, and alumni news. This year's staff initiated the idea of an underlying theme in each issue Other innovations included a column by mystery writer Amory, in which he related incidents of life in a Hemingway-like style, a council column by President Deke Karzon, and new headlining type which added spirit to an already effervescent publication.

By supplementing the renewal of most of last year's contracts with several new ads and by raising the subscription fee to three and a half dollars, the staff insured a stronger fiscal foundation for the News than usual. DONALD A. TRACY, business manager THOMAS C. KEISER, advertising manager CLARKE H. NARINS, circulation manager GLEANER PETER GOW Ill, editor-in-Chief The Glearner, the school's literary magazine, is less formally organized than the other student publications at Nichols. The Gleaner staff can publish when satisfied with the quantity and quality of the pieces submitted by the students. Very often the Gleaner staff must fill the magazine with their own work because academic pressures and school activities leave little time for the other interested students to create masterpieces The Gleaner was published once this year.

Profits from candy sales and ticket raffles supplemented the 32,500 collected in pledges. This year's contributions were divided among the United Fund, the Foster Parents' Plan, Radio Free Europe, and the Greek Farm School. PU BLICITY COMMITTEE TIMOTHY Y. BRENNAN, h ' ' 1-JL?

Welcomed by cheerful salesmen, students took full advantage of this opportunity this year. The gamut of the inexpensive paperbacks ran from light entertainment to philosophical essays. In the spring, the Paperback Book Store sponsored a special sale of summer reading material. Whether books were purchased or perused there, the Paperback Book Store and its hard-working salesmen proved to be a valuable asset to both the students and the school.

Bruce Patterson, Max Becker, Kevin Johnston, Chris Michel, Tim Due to the often intense athletic rivalries existing between Nichols and other schools, it is difficult to instill in these schools a favorable impression of Nichols. However, with smiles, towels, soap, and campus tours, this year's Green Key Committee established cordial relations which prevailed even after the games. By exerting themselves fully to make visiting teams feel more at home, the Keymen made athletic contests more enjoyable for everyone and improved the visitor's impression of Nichols. CHARLES P.

KULICK, president The Glee Club had a rough 1967- 1968 season. During the first half of the year interest and enthusiasm were strong. The Club had a very successful engagement at a Kleinhans Music Hall pop concert and entertained at the annual Christmas chapel at school. However, the original interest was not strong enough to sustain the Club for the remainder of the year, and it was forced to disband. The students still interested in singing joined to form a larger Nicholdeons group. GLEE CLUB Up, up, and away FIRST ROW!

This year in addition to its regular service at varsity football and hockey games, the committee functioned at the college hockey tournament and the two alumni skating nights. Despite an outside rise in costs, prices were kept down. With its profits the 1967-1968 Activities Committee purchased a Roland Wise painting for the school's collection of Western New York Art.

The Fall Sports Dance appropriately capped a victorious season, and the Hockey Dance provided equally satisfying entertainment.

It encompasses the physical, emotional, and academic growths of every one of these students, so that each may be prepared to meet the challenging complexities of every day life. Unknowingly, these young gentlemen generate a pulsating vigor which enables them to grasp the knowledge which lies at their finger tips. We see their creativity in their hideous Halloween masks molded in Art or their soft polished wood products in Shop. On the field of athletics we watch their exuberance. On their faces we see the sweetness of victory or sometimes the pain and tears of defeat. In their academic situations we are joyful for their truthful inquisitiveness. Now as you sixth graders look back over the '67-'68 year at Nichols, remember the faces on these pages for in them are woven the threads of all your every day experiences here. Relive the joys, the disappointments and all your accomplishments. Be glad that in this past year you have strengthened your mind and your body and broadened your horizons to meet the days ahead.

Elected by their peers, this council organized two highly successful tea dances and reorganized the Junior School Spring Dance to include only first and second formers. They were responsible for the live entertainment at these dances. Also, on their list of achievements are the Junior School candy sales and effective proctoring of study halls. The avidity and completeness with which these boys worked will serve as a fine example for future Junior School Councils.

With only four lettermen returning and more than half the team composed of fresh- men and sophomores, the Big Green's mistake book proved indispensable early in the season. Yet, after absorbing two losses in the first four games, errors dwindled and wins accumulated as the rookies gained experience and confidence. Two low scoring one-run victories over Western Reserve and University School carried the team to a respectable won 2, lost 2 Interstate record. In the University School game, as in local contests against DeVeaux and Tonawanda, Nichols scored the winning runs in the final inning. Captain Greg Conrad provided perhaps the most exciting mo- ment ofthe season in the University School game. With the tying run on third base, Conrad knocked down a line drive, grabbed it barehanded in mid- air and tumbled to the ground with the final out of the game. Dan Phelan's conversion from a power- hitting first baseman to the club's leading pitcher proved the biggest surprise of the season. Phelan registered five wins, including a no-hit, no-run game against Olean. Come on, where is it? Kip Weeks FIRST ROW: Jim Knodel, Bill Degen, Greg Conrad, captain, Rob- Dunn. Don Nenno. Bucky Dieil.

One of eleven returning Iettermen, Captain Mike Hayes led an extremely versatile team whose members sometimes com- peted in as many as three events. After a disap- pointing tie with Hamburg and a loss to a power- ful Orchard Park team, the Big Green bounced back at the annual Nichols Invitational Meet by defeating Allendale, Park, and DeVeaux. The squad continued to beat local competition and ex- tended its winning streak to five at mid-season. The highpoint of the schedule was the Inter- state Meet, traditionally the last meet of the sea- son. Although many of the squad did not place, Nichols was able to eliminate host Shady Side from many of the final heats. Solid point-winning performances by Fred Hunt, Mike Hayes, Al Thompson, Tom Grant, and the Jerge-BorziIleri- Haidvogel-White relay team capped the strong team effort and pulled the Big Green out of the IPSL track cellar for the first time in nine years.

Playing first singles, Sadkowski led the netters to Interstate victories over Shady Side and Cranbrook. George Kloepfer, the team's most consistent player, lost only one match at second singles. The balanced team included Harvey Goldstein at third singles, the reliable first doubles duo of Charlie Jacobs and captain Tom Crane, and Don Tracy and Randy Smith at second doubles, In local competi- tion Nichols lost only one match, to Amherst. However, in a return match the netters avenged their earlier loss with a 4-1 trouncing of the same team. In perhaps its most impressive victory, the team shut out Grosse Point, regarded as one of the finest tennis teams in Michigan. With the in- struction of Coach Fox each player developed confidence in his game. Consequently, in its ln- terstate victories the team demonstrated a poise which in past years it had lacked. if - X . .rightdown his throat! Randy Smith Kloepfer unwinds another deadly serve.

Al Thompson The 1967 football team was one of the finest in Nichols history. After breezing past three non-League rivals, it began its Interstate season with impressive victories over University School and Western Reserve, and then avenged last year's losses to Kiski and Cranbrook with 50-0 and 32-0 shutouts. The final victory over Shady Side gave Nichols its second undefeated season and second Interstate championship in three years. The Vikings' attack, balanced between the running of Jim Jerge and the passing of Greg Conrad, produced a new West- ern New York scoring record of 329 points. Jerge gained 604 yards and scored 102 points, a new school recordg Conrad completed 51 'Zn of his passes for 20 touchdowns. Dan Phelan caught 38 passesg Fred Hunt gathered in 18, 13 for touch- downs. The first defense, led by co-captains Jim Cowper and Dan Phelan, surrendered only 8 of the 57 points scored by opponents. When fused together, the offense and the defense formed a cohesive football machine. 136 Nichols 26 13 Nichols 54 7 Nichols 47 13 Nichols 40 6 Nichols 36 10 Nichols 50 0 Nichols 32 0 Nichols 44 8 Jerge catches Kiski,' Cowper closes for kill.

Captain Don Tracy and Brian Pat- terson, the only starting seniors, led a skilled but erratic line. The junior halfback line of Randy Smith, Jad Cordes, and Tom Jacobs formed the , core of a stalwart defense. A strong start with victories over Williamsville, Ridley, and Maryvale indicated a potentially successful season. How- l ever, in the fourth game, Hamburg's last minute goal set a downward trend for the season's Inter- i state games. l The Hawks showed their true ability by winning nine of the twelve local games. Although often frustrated, this year's team possessed the un- daunted spirit so characteristic of past soccer teams. Mr. Zeller was certainly justified in saying, This year's team deserved a better record. Wing on the wing. Mike Kelley, Jad Cordes, Tom Grant FIRST ROW: Brian Baird.

Cross country, 1967 Even though this year's cross country team lost several close meets through inexperience, many strong individual performances sparked the sea- son. During the season, Chris Sadkowski took over the number one position held for two years by Captain Pete Ross. Senior George Trimper and his freshman brother Paul put on last minute sprints to secure the victory over Medina. Senior Mike Hettler moved from the bottom of last year's team to the number six slot. The future of cross country at Nichols looks en- couraging. Of the seventeen man team, only four are graduating. Coach Kritzer can take encour- agement for the future from the strong individual efforts of this year's team. Trimper trails Trimper.

The young and inexperienced squad warmed up for Lawrenceville with strong wins over Westdale and Delta Secondary. ln the first tourney game, the Big Green, backed by Steve Fernow in goal, upset a heavily favored Taft team, in the second game, Nichols gained its first win in thirty years over Ridley. ln the final game, Andover overcame a 3-1 first period deficit to stop our drive toward the Championship. In the Nichols Invitation Tournament, Nichols dropped the first game to a well-drilled Albany team, but the Green icers came back with a 3-2 win over Blake to win the consolation. The visiting players remarked on the craft of Don Tracy's line, Fred Hunt's lethal slapper, and the bone-crushing Cooke-Cordes defense. Hopes are high for a strong, matured team next year.

George Kloepfer, Arnie Berman, Al Thompson Again this year Coach Anderson molded a highly successful varsity basketball team which compiled a 16-1 record and won the l.P.S.L. Championship. This year's team was characterized by strong rebounding and a stingy defense which allowed an average of less than 42 points per game. The scoring attack was paced by Co-captain Arnie Berman and Greg Conrad, while Berman, Co-captain George Kloepfer, and Al Thompson led the way under the boards. Field general Terry Kaney performed well and finished the season with 63 assists. Sophomore Ed Zablocki made many key contributions in both local and lnterstate play. Highlights of the season were the four Interstate victories and a two-game sweep over Hamburg, a big power in local high school play. Next year Coach Anderson will start with a neucleus of five returning lettermen: Matt Szydlowski, Rob Peterson, Terry Kaney, Ed Zablocki, and Gary Wilson. Extending its four- year record to 65-6, the Big Green has again established itself as a basketball power to be reckoned with. Scramble for loose ball.

To accomplish this feat, the team finished second to the Buffalo Athletic Club in the first half of the season, then beat both the Tennis and Squash Club and the B.A.C. by 5-0 scores for the title. The team fared as well interscholastically. The Big Green split two matches with Ridley, winning 3-2 at Nichols and losing by the same score on the Canadians' courts. After dropping a close match to Port Hope, Ontario, the squad tallied two 5-0 wins over upper Canada College. The success of the team was due to its extraordinary depth.
