Such preparation must include learning how to think logically, clearly and con- structively. lt must include working at the top of one's ability which, in turn, is dependent on good health and emotional stability. These elements are of great im- portance if there is to be the kind of prep- arations which insures the ultimate realiza- tion of our aim. However, there is an element of even greater importance and that is the formation of character through ethical training-the kind of character de- velopment which typifies the good citizen. The good citizen, through his school ex- perience, cherishes democratic values and bases his actions on them. He come: to be- lieve in the fundamental dignity of man and, most important of all, he learns to put himself in the other fellows place in all kinds of situations. thereby gaining his respect and affection. Responsible citizenship in a democracy demands educational experience which not only develops the mind and body. but helps to create in the heart of man an awareness of his responsibility to his fel- low man. Then he becomes truly aware of the INOSY fundaniemal ol democratic Values and helps to make stronger our de- fense of 'fthe last lust hope on earth.

Almost all of the members of the board are parents of boys in school, but every one of them is a person interested in Pem-Day's future. Members of the board are elected for three-year terms by others on the board, and they can be re-elected at the end of their terms. Officers are elected by the whole board for one-year terms and can also be re-elected. The board meets five times a year and discusses the important issues at hand. At these meetings Various com- mittees report their findings. There are six of these committees: for education, athletics, buildings and grounds, finance, scholarship and endowment. . The board, in the past few years, has lifted the school out of debt, had plans drawn up for a new building program, and supervised the recent building fund drive, receiving more than Sl60,000. The board of trustees is also responsible for choosing the headmaster, and it was a committee headed by glarsgon L. Thompson which went to the East and picked the present headmaster, Bradford M. Kingman, in . - The board is the top policy body, and they decide, with the headmaster, matters relating to the school budget operation and expansion. v. 14 miniA teqtivn The Pem-Day board of trustees picks a headmaster for the school, and it is his job to run the school as he sees fit. ' Mr. Bradford M. Kingman was selected by the board in 1943 after an intensive search. It is Mr. Kingman's duty to set educational policy, and on him much of the school's standing rests. There are several other administrative employees of the school. Hal Jones is the school secretary and a great help in shifting much of the burden of minor detail Mrs. , from Mr. Kingman's shoulders. Mrs. Mary Virginia Barnes, in addition to helping Mrs. Jones, publishes the Pembroke-Country Day News. Both of these Women have sons in the school. Mr. S. C. McFadden is the school bursar, appointed last year after the death of Mrs, McAllister, one of the school's pioneers. Clifford A. Nault Cecil C. Coad Modern Languages A.B.

Middle school classes are held on the top floor of the Administration building. Since l938, the middle school has been directed by Ralph Wedin, long-time Pem-Day teacher and head coach of all middle school athletics. Mr. Wedin is assisted by John Dennis, Ambrose Sembrat and Miss Fern Dailey, full-time middle school instructors. In addition to the above, he received help in his coaching duties from Ora Shields and Mr. Duckels, members of the upper school staff. The middle school boys have the same hours as the upper school students, but beyond that there are few occasions on which the two schools mingle. These boys have lunch at the school, as do the members of the upper school, but at a different hour. The middle school curriculum is planned by the school and there are no elective courses, Every boy is required to take part in the seasonal sport. Formal classroom work includes instruction in English, arithmetic, history and social studies. This program is designed to prepare the boys thoroughly for their work in high school. However, there are several courses not usually offered to grade school boys which make the middle school outstanding. Among these courses are speech, the fundamentals of parliamentary law, shopwork and music appreciation. These courses, educational in the broader sense ot the word, are a great asset in later life. l l Upper Left: john Keith, Tom Fitch, Stanley Christopher, John Royce, Guyton Hamilton, Roger Wilkin.

Bellamy. head of Pem-Day's junior school since l93l, will retire this year to Hdevote a little time to some fun, my home and my husband. Mrs. Bellamy, a teacher at Pem-Day since l927, has loved every minute of it. One of her greatest joys in life, she says, is having watched junior school pupils finish grade school, high school and finally see them graduate. In every graduating class since l937, there have been some of her former third graders. Mrs. Bellamy received an AB. from Howard Payne College, and did post-graduate work at the University of Colorado. There she met Mr. Bellamy, who grew up in Sweet Springs, Mo. Mrs. Bellamy comes from Brown- wood, Texas. The Bellamys moved to Kansas City and Mrs. Bellamy took what she expected to be a temporary job at the old Pembroke school. She remained at Pembroke, later Pem- broke-Country Day, for twenty years. Another teacher who is leaving Pem-Day this year is Mrs. Fern Daily, who has been in the middle school for five years. Coming to Pem-Day from St. Louis, Mrs. Daily is now retiring to become a housewife, and as she puts it, learn how to cook a good meal. ,Vi FDURTH GRADE THIRD GRADE T l 5 ' . . .

The purpose of this expansion is the development of young men who may go forth into the world with not only a good edu- cation from the scholastic standpoint, but with confidence in the strength and stamina of their own bodies. The expansion has included a variety of sports including golf, tennis and intramural competition. ln the last two years besides the three major sports-basketball, baseball and football-Pem-Day has fielded golf and tennis teams which have been a credit to the school, The tennis team this year is under the direction of Mr, Duckels. His boys took second place in the Interstate Tennis Tournament in Kansas City and also have won all their single matches to this time. The golf team has been directed by Coach Newell, and they have won two and tied one match to date. Along l with this outside competition the intramural Red and Blue games create a keen spirit of competition as developing material for the varsity. Soft- MR. PAUL NEWELL ball and track are also intramural activities in the spring, with a large Director of Athletics ar Pem-Day number of boys coming out for each, lf this new program is continued, Pem-Day will turn out, not only good teams, but strong, healthy young men. . Qlvvtbqll The 1946 edition of the Pem-Day football team. proved to be one of the most successful in recent years. The Raiders played eight games, of which they won five and lost three. The team opened its season against the highly touted Lillis Fighting Irish. The Raid-ers played a good game, both offensively and defensively, emerging from the contest victors by a l3-0 scor-e. Cross and Law each scored a touchdown, with Lambert going over for the point. For the second game the Raiders journeyed to Saint, Louis to play the John Burroughs school. Again, they emerged victors and again bythe same score, 13-0. Kent Cross scored the first touchdown and Lambert the second. ln the third game the Raiders ran into a stone wall in the Washington Rural Wildcats and lost l3-7. The only Raider score came on a pass from Law to Goodell. Blake Academy defeated the Raiders again in the fourth game by a ,score of l3-0, but in the next contest Pem-Day bounced back to beat the Hogan Rams 20-0: Lambert, Goodell and Watkins each scored for Pem- Day. ln the sixth game the Raiders trounced the Fountain Valley Danes 26-6 in a very fast and rough contest. Law, Raider fullback, had a hand in three of the fourgtouchdowns, scoring twice himself on runs and passing for a third, The fourth Pem-Day score was the result of a pass from Shackelford to Cross.

During the winter months the Physical Education classes played basketball and volleyball. The teams were taught the fundamentals of the game by Coach Newell. Some of the boys moved up to the varsity as a result of this training. Others were given good training for the intramural Red and Blue basketball games. aw asm, The annual field day at Pembroke-Country Day School has been a tradition at the school for many years. On the appointed day each year the whole school, upper, middle and lower, turns out on the foot- ball field and the track to compete in the many events. In some ways this event is comparable to a track meet because of the similarity of the events. The events at Pem-Day are usually as follows: 50-yard dash, lO0-yard dash, hurdles, shot-put, high jump, broad jump and many relay races. With the addition of the Red and Blue competition this year themeet will be much more important, as the outcome of the Red and Blue will hinge on the results obtained on field day. The meet will be judged by Coaches Newell, Duckels and Shields, with various faculty members as assistants. The prizes giv-en will be ribbons for first, second and third in each event. This event brings to a peak the athletic schedule for the year. All the boys who compete have been conditioning throughout the spring and winter months by working out on the track in their spare time. The junior and middle school events will be run off at the same time with about ten minutes elapsing between heats. The field day is climaxed by the supper served on the campus by the kitchen staff for all parents and boys. The Held day is one of the high spots of the school year.

' Knfnqqet Cn the evening of April l8 the annual Fathers' and Sons' Banquet was held. This marked once more the observance of a fine tradition at Pem-Day-a tradition supported since the founding of the school. The general aim of these banquets is to emphasize the comradeship between father and son, and, when the ties are weakened by the rapid pace of modern life, to strengthen it. The atmosphere fostered by this tradition makes it easier for the father, often powerless to express himself on that subject, to find words to express the great hope and intense interest he has in his son. The Fathers' and Sons' Banquet always follows the same general plan: invocation, dinner, speeches? though successful and enjoyed, the 1947 Banquet varied little from the old formula. A difference, very no- ticeable to all who had attended previous banquets, was th-e great improvement in the quality of the customary musical entertainment. Under the direction of Mr. Tudi Buttagole, the Middle and Junior School band played as it never has played before. The Glee Club gave a preview of its operetta, The Pirates of Penzance. The general tone of the speeches was emphasis on the father and son comradeship and the anxiety of fathers for their sons to be prepared to support the vast burden of leadership soon to be thrust upon them. 6106A The philosophy club was conducted during the second and third quarters of the school year by Mr. Nault, who has led it for several years. The club was composed of nine boys, seven of whom are shown in the picture at right. A great many questions per- taining to ethics and philosophy were discussed in the meetings. At the begin- ning of each meeting, Mr. Nault, acting as a moderator, would make a statement and the members would then discuss the issue. The club met two periods a week.

Another Pem-Day club is the radio club, begun this fall by Mr. Madden after he received requests from several boys. This club met two times a week also and they discussed radio and radio prob- lems. Several of the members brought radios and other equipment to the meet- ings, thus increasing interest. ! All the boys had more than elemental knowledge of radio, and it was a very interesting experience. Standing: Welch, Mr. Madden, Auld. Seated: T. Withers, Goodell. For the first time in several years, a science club was organized at Pem-Day this year. This club, with a membership pd ...ti Jwv E122 km, WI ,Q of six boys, was under the direction of Mr. Madden. Meeting twice a week, the boys dis- cussed a great variety of scientific sub- jects. Of great interest was atomic en- ersly and related matters, but there was also discussion of natural and chemical -sur-nice. i'li.f meetings were held in the science lnlwmtory, thus allowing actual demon- flmuimi of certain talks. 1'flIL'lf.' limmrz, Hedges. fwffingf' Richter, W, Willianis, Ket- Ufwlillnl.

The purpose of the paper is twofold: to report the activities of the school and to furnish an outlet for the creative talents of students. Contributors to the paper, although mainly from the upper school, include boys in the middle and junior school, who write items for the middle and junior school page. This year the paper was under the editorship of Ross Cummings until late in February, secretary-treasurer of the student council and senior class and a football let- terman. Cummings resigned in February and after that the paper was edited by two juniors, Harry Jones and Earl Barnes. The sports department was headed by Jack Peabody and Chris Miller was business manager. Ross W. Cummings, who was Editor-in-Chief of The Hilltop until February, when he resigned. The faculty adviser has been Mr, Frank Weber, head of the English department. The paper has had eight issues throughout the year. The paper's representative at the girls' schools were Julia Dennis for Bar- stow and Mariel Tyler for Sunset. The Hilltop was published this year by these twelve boys. In the left-hand picture are the co-editors, Harry Jones and Earl Barnes.

W bvkm Dorm Mother Mrs. Meroe Wooley and the Resident Master, Mr. Frank Weber, and family. In 1930. the Country Day School became a boarding school with the addition of a new, fireproof dormitory. This building is of Georgian style and it is three stories high. The dormitory was built to accommodate forty students and three masters. There are two large suites on the first floor for the resident master and the house mother. The building was started in l930 and was d-edicated to the memory of Schuyler Ashley, a member of the school's first graduating class. The dormitory was ready for occupancy by the fall of 1930. A The first resident master of the dorm was R. W. Wedin. Mr. Wedin was succeeded by Mr. H. E. A. Jones, who became headmaster of the school in l93l. In 1943, following the resignation of Mr. Jones, Mr. H. R. fl-Ialj Jones became resident master. Mr. Jones held this position until last year. Completing her eighth year as house mother is Mrs. Wooley, who is in charge of the domestic affairs of the dorm. This year a new man is in charge of Schuyler Ashley I-louse: Mr. Frank Weber, head of the English department here. Two facets of dorm life: the dorm court and a couple of boys studying in their room. . , -9, ' 'w1 w 4 f ? 4-,ff , if f fr iw S W Q! 1 yr f W ,WW fly 4 A zfffmj, M2 'J' dfwvfsr t H gf.

They were held after every home football game in the dining room of the dorm, Faculty members and their wives acted as chaperones. The other outstanding social events of the fall term were the Barstow and Sunset l-lill dances. The Barstow dance was given in honor of the dorm girls. The Sunset function was their annual fall dance. During the Christmas holidays the Yuletide Tea Dance attracted a number of us and was a great success. It was held at the Hotel Muehlebach on the afternoon of December 23. After these holidays a Red Dance was held at Pem-Day. Prizes were given to the boy and girl wearing the most red. No one was admitt-ed unless he was wearing something red, Sunset's Senior-Junior prom was the next big social event of the season, lt was followed by Barstow's Spring Dance. From spring on, the Pem-Day Senior Prom was looked forward to by all. It was held the 7th of June. Other outstanding events were the Sunset Senior Prom and the Barstow Spring Dance. Throughout the year, a number of students comprising the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes attended monthly Junior Assembly parties at the Kansas City Country Club.

On that day, the seniors of Sunset Hill School had the Pem-Day seniors over for lunch. Each boy was given a dinner partner, and, from the remarks heard from the boys later, they had an interesting time. This has been a tradition for several years and is excitedly anticipated by the seniors each year, Gihiiw . - I Kent Cross and Marcia Race at the Sunet Spring Dance. Cross dated Bar- stow mostly, while Race wore the senior rings of, successively, Stan Searles and Ted Law. Jan Archer and Gene Whittington at Sunset. They were one of the few couples that managed to remain together through the usual spring wrecking period. This fact is explained by the compatibility of their personalities, which was smooth enough so that they began going steady on the first date.

An entirely new arrangement of the study hall System greeted the students upon their arrival at school at the beginning of the present school year. Formerly, all students except third quarter seniors who were on the honor roll were required to study in a large study hall located on the west side of the first floor of the main building. This year, however, the main study hall was divided into two smaller rooms by a partition. The south section of the study hall is for boys whose grades are not high enough or who do not display sufficient responsibility to study without supervision. The north hall is designat-ed for boys whose grades are satis- factory and who display to the faculty that they are able to study without supervision, This study hall, a step towards the eventual goal of a general honor system much like those in effect at Princeton and Yale, is called the honor study hall. To date about 50 per cent of the upper school enrollment has been in the honor hall at one time or another, and, at present, about one-third of the upper school studies there. Naturally, fewer seniors are asked to leave the honor hall than underclassmen. This is only natural, because a freshman is not expected to have as good a sense of responsibility as a senior who is going to enter college the following year. However, the under- classmen have shown that they, too, are able to accept a surprising amount of responsibility in view of their age. That is one of the major reasons for instituting this study hall, Also, since almost all Pem-Day graduates go to college, and since Pem-Day is a college preparatory school, it is nearly as important to develop a boy's self-discipline as it is to teach him. academic subjects. Pem-Day is in the process of becoming one of the finest prep schools in the country, and a school cannot live up to such a standard merely because it has a brilliant faculty and a fine campus. The boys are the part of a school that make it a truly great school or merely a mediocre one. Obviously, such a system that has been recently started at Pem-Day is an important and vital step towards reaching the high goal that our school is certain to attain. ' Another system that has been a tradition at Pem-Day for many years is the privilege given to seniors during their final quarter at the school. This privilege is given only to seniors who have made the honor roll, an average of B minus or better. This privilege is the right of such a senior to study anywhere on the campus during any of his free periods. This gives to the senior a taste of what college will be like and further develops his self-discipline. There is no rule that forces such a senior to study at all, and he is the only one responsible for his actions and grades. We feel that our study hall system, under the guidance of Mr. Coad, is already far above the average and, in a few years, will be one of the very finest in the country. Student 9.0 eenment f X The Peml-Day Student Council: fleft to right, front to backj--Lombardi, Lambert, Shackel- ford, Cummings. Law, Peete. Absent is President Spencer. S Every student at Pem-Day is given an opportunity to participate in self-government. Each boy casts a ballot for class officers and the Student Council, and all take a keen interest in the elections. The Student Council is composed of seven members-three seniors, two juniors, one sophomore and one freshman. They are elect-ed at the end of each school year to serve a one-year term in the next academic term. In this way, the members are chosen by boys who have had at least one year to grow acquainted with the school and the nominees. ' Nominees for the Student Council are picked by each class, double the number being nominated as will be elected. The entire school votes on all the nominees, and the eighth graders vote in a school election for the first time. The Student Council annually appoints the dance committee, which supervises all Pem-Day dances. They hold weekly meetings, and they propose boys to b-e taken in and out of the honor study hall, subject to the approval of the faculty. They also supervise charity drives in the school. Each class has its own government, consisting of a president, vice-president and secretary-treasurer. These class officers conduct class meetings, raise dues and supervise class affairs in general. This modified form of student self-government is well appreciated by the students, and there are few who would abolish it. Every boy can aspire to be a member of the Student Council or a class officer, and there is probably not a boy who would not accept such an honor. ii Below fat leftj are the Senior class officers.

Our job is done, our time has past, on you we must rely. Carry on! The days we leave behind us, they always will remind us To carry on! Don't forget, ' The mem'ries that we weave here, the men and boys we leave here We won't forget. Don't give in when things get tough for you. They're not half as bad as you say. Don't give in when the other team's rough on you. You know you can't win every day. Carry on. Keep those home fires burning And soon we'Il be returning, So carry on! JOHN KANDER, 44 DICK WILES, 44 Kaidev Back in IQ44, a group of boys tried to start a yearbook at Pem-Day. The attempt was unsuccessful, but the idea did not die so abruptly. The following year, four more boys got together and made up their minds to put out a successful yearbook. These four boys, Hugh Francis, Bob Himmleburger, Jim Wade and Joe Wolf, became the co-editors and basis of the staff. They called it THE RAIDER, since the annual of years ago is now being used by the school paper, The Hilltop. THE RAIDER came out a few days before graduation, June of l946. In the spring of that year the staff began to entertain thoughts of perpetuating the yearbook: therefore it was necessary to add some juniors to the staff. Patrick Graham, on the recommendation of Mr. Weber, was chosen. His duties were quite menial, since THE RAIDER was run on the principle that staff members work their way up from the very bottom. After a time, they decided that one junior was not enough, so they added Leland Norris. Norris was at that time the News Editor of The Hilltop, but still ambitious to get his finger into another pot. He joined THE RAIDER and entered the competition for the next year's editorship, The end of it all was that he was made Editor-in-Chief and Patrick Graham was made Managing Editor. The organization of the staff was begun last summer and continued all year, People were hired and fired until the staff numbered twelve. There were three departments: Bill Sight headed the Business Staff. He was assisted by Jerry Green and Howard Eoster. The Production Department was under the direct head of the No. 2 man, Graham. The Photography Department was headed successively by Pat Robinson, Earl Barnes and Bob Ginsberg. The 1947 RAIDER was beset with difficulties from the first. The government had changed its tax laws in such a way as to lessen the deductions for advertising. Prices had risen a great deal because of inffation. Reconversion upset the electrical industry and stopped production of flash bulbs, necessary to RAIDER pho- tography. Strikes held up the film industry. One by one these problems Cand many othersj were tackled and solved, but not without the most strenuous effort. THE RAIDER owes a great deal to a great many people. At the head of the list is Mr. Clifford Nault, our WW adviser. In addition to his value as an ad- viser. we benefited from having a better opportunity than most to absorb his phi- losophy of lifeQone of hard Work and strict virtue. Mrs. Barnes has been very generous and helpful all through the year. Messrs. Fletcher and Kolb at Burger-Baird and Larry Smith of.Smith-Grieves Com- pany have been of great assistance. The General Electric Company helped us out at a crucial point by giving us flash bulbs when they Were not to be found on the retail or wholesale market. And, of course, all the advertisers and subscribers are due our thanks formaking this book possible. Top: Norris. Left: Graham. Right: Sight.
