D DORSEY FENDER l think you're wrong, sir. Tell me why you think I'm wrong? l don't know why you're wrong, but l still think you're wrong, This would be what you would probably hear if you happened to sit in on one of the Sixth Form's moth classes. The student discussing the teucher's mistakes would be Dorsey Pender, Though he may be o math genius, we are not sure, and only time will tell. But we do know that Dorsey is on oll-around boy ot the Acodemy. He hos entered into olmost every sport at School ond was o three-letter mon lost yeor. Dorsey is o very copoble boy ond shows this, not only on the athletic field, but in the excellent work he often does ocodemicolly. If he has one weakness it would be girls. We might odd thot, if there is one weolrness girls ho-fe, it is Dorsey. Dorsey is quite a mon with the ladies ond is never likely to be clone anywhere he is seen. He plons to motriculote ot the Virginia Military lnstitute, where we are sure he will compile on excellent record. -RS fi 5 of 7 auf - 5 lx -' g.x 'sF 4 r -f fi. .1 1 .l l r.:1111 t 1 49:1 'lvl' v.: ' ll 1 Z 'l,,'1l'L?.l 11 1' l SNI1- ll' ' -'wt t'l lit-:H ' r.1 lx' -:lw l r ,wi-1 with 11 ft111 1f' l ' ' s' l r' 1' l' :ml l,,' li- 1 11- ': :tl l'1i'- l l V: .t-- t 1.1-ft'r11l1,'.tz1.: llrff :H-:turf vwtnrt ll.w l. -, A-' 1' t flw' f 'ln-t 'ifi Ai- l hiv tl 1.-:T:l.'1s Jw lil-1 :Nl 11l lfwtzvt 1, l' wlfitt will 1 '1lr Cl' l11f 'fls l': 'ft :nil ' s ' 'wt 't-'t:', -' 4 t ,'- lwrl, llwf-fl, lit'-tl S 1, .1,,, ny L1 ,: , A ,.

THOMAS MANSBACH At the Hub of this city you will find a spokesman for high ideals. He may also be found exercising the horse power of his bond-lacquered convertible ia second-hand one with the original dents put in it by the rocks of the Rubicon as Caesar mode his memorable crossing in shallow water! on any public thoroughfare at a rate of speed not coinciding with that speciiied by law. Dressed in three-button coat, buckled black tiannel pants, loafers, and regimentalvstriped tie-he represents the epitome f fashion. His presence in the company of the patrons of t is by no means unusual. All this can be said to repre proper grooming for a Yale hopeful.

Mr. Chairman, Honored Guests, and Fellow Classmates We come Tonight to this class reunion from all walks of life to reminisce and to rekindle friendships in abeyance only because of long separation, and to compare our achievements of today with our dreams of yesterday Before we have a few words from the members present, let me introduce each with a short sentence or so to the many guests in the audience On my left is Dr. Donald Frank Kern, D.D.S. lDoggone, Doggone, Shucksl. Donnie seems to have attained his desired status in life. Instead of putting those big hands of his into the face of some lonely line-backer, he is putting them into the mouths of his patients, many of them former football opponents.. .lDon, would you mind taking your teeth out of my water glass, . .thanks. . .I As many of us know, it is quite the rage of the young Ivy League College Set to buy their clothes at the Brooks Brothers of the South, which, under the brilliant manag ment of its owner, Thomas lvlansbach, has risen from an obscure local store to the largest chain south of the Mason-Dixon Line. On my right then, Tom Mansbach, popu Ill ll ll l lll ll l l 4 1 4 Iarizer of the'famous tweed burlap with the moth-hole pattern You all remember Richard NeIson...Would you take oft your dark glasses, please, Richard. . ,as the small one with the dry, dry wit land one olive, pleasel so typical of the Academy graduate, who has, along with Mr. Benjamin Iviargolius, built Imperial Classics, Ltd., into the importer of foreign cars. Richard is the genius behind the locating of those valuable classics so desired by those who can aFford them... Richard, you and Boo would like to introduce the guest sitting between you?. . .Gentle- men, Mr. Olie Trask of Mad Glie's Auto Junk Yard.. .Not a business associate, iust a friend, you say?. .. We ought to tell you that, to Boo, this is only a sideline, as is real estate, the stock market, imports, exports, and so forth. At the moment, his central interest is his position as critic and reviewer for both the Surly Review of Literature and The New Joker. And we here refute the charge that there is any connection between his fine work and the recent alarming decline in American belles-Iettres. In the literary field, we also have Page Newton, B.A., IvI.A., Phd, B.V.D, R.S.V.P., V.l.P.-and holder of numerous other degrees both academic and honorary, winner of three Pulitzer Prizes and two Nobel awards in literature-just to mention o few of the many honors that have been heaped upon him. I know that you are all as glad as I am to hear that he has recently recovered from a serious back iniury. I believe that he is going to tell us of his latest book, A Literary Synopsis of the Sandscrit Seminar, 'I89 Nineteen-Eighty-Seven 3 3 i I .ll sd-'
