After you were here at Pen- nington from 1947 through 1949, you traveled extensively throughout the United States. Youwere offered many excellent positions, butfinally you decided to return to the school where your heart was - - Pennington. When you returned to Pennington in 1952 you were unable to teach the subjects you enjoyed to the fullest, French and Latin, due to the fact that there were no openings, as a result you taught English. During the next two school years you received your wish to teach French and Latin, since the teachers who were teaching those subjects left Pennington. In your five years at Pennington, Mr. Hawk, you certainly have dem- onstrated superior ability in your direction of dramatic productions. With your perseverance and determination, you, with the help of Mrs. Hawk, were able to instill in your actors courage, interest, peace of mind, and true acting ability. This year you have become the Senior Class advisor and in doing so you have brought the class closer together by encouraging words and your helpful guidance in its activities. you have brought the class closer together by your encouraging words and your helpful guidance in its activities. By dedicating this 1955 Penseman to you, we sincerely hope you will realize the appreciation and high regard we hold for you, as a teacher who led us so superbly and as a loving friend. Sincerely yours, The Class of 1955 4 William C, Hawk A.B..

Senior Class We the Senior Class of 1955 leave behind us a record Pennington can be proud ofg yet we consider this small in comparison with what Pennington gave us--our treasured memories and the bonds of close friendship. From the annals of this year you will find Morris Fabian the only student to complete his elementary and secondary schooling entirely here at Penning- ton. Bob Poore surely must have made his father, Harold Poore, our Coach, tremendously happy as he made us happy when he took the job of class presi- dent. He had a wonderful staff at his command: Frank Nikles, vice -presi- dent, Morris Fabian, secretarygand JerryCallaghan,treasurer. Scholastically speaking we faired rather well, the majority of the students on the Honor Roll this year were seniors. Many of our Senior Class members participated in sports, leading us on to many victories. They certainly deserve an ovation, as Coach Poore can tell you. Our Senior Play, Mouldy Manner , required many of the boys to take the parts of girls, but we achieved success with the superb direction and supervision ofMr. and Mrs. Hawk. Yes, we were mem- bers in every society and participated in both the Ronal Oratorical and the De- clamation Contest. We have all grown a great deal physically, mentally, and morally in our seemingly short years at Pennington because of Dr. Pimm, Dr. Bunce, the faculty, and the staff. To them and all of those who have made Pennington possible, we give our sincere thanks.

The plot revolved around an attrac- tive, intelligent girl, Jennifer who was held in an old mansion by Ale ric Carver, a psuedo surgeon. Katherine Morris, a wheel chair dowager, ruled over the house of murderers and terrorized Hulda,the swedish maid. Other characters in the play were: Roxana, a sultry blond with a pet cobrag Charles Wedgewood, the well-mannered pompus country gentleman and Mike Sherlock, the detective hero who saved imprisoned Jennifer. The cast read: Morris Fabian as Jen- nifer, Wilbert Richardson as Alericg Barry Coleman as Mrs. Morris, Lyman O'Neil1 as Charles Wedgewood, Burton Longwell as Huldag Conrad Youngbliut as Roxanag Dave Scull as Philbertg Bob Edwards as Grandmother Wedgewood's ghost and Andy Guthrie as Nick Sherlock. Let us not forget the boys backstage. lt couldn't have been done without Mrs. Hawk's staff including Jim Teamer, Don Johnson, Conrad Youngbliut, Don Robbins, Burgess Hulett and Colin Smith. We are sorry that Jim Cortelyou sprained his ankle, but glad that Conrad Young- bliut, in one week. stepped into the part. Burton Longwell burned his hand in chemistry, but went on with his part before going home the day after the play. We thank Mr. and Mrs. Hawk for their hard work and many hours of striving to make the play so successful. Also, a big hand to Mrs. Manifold for the mar- velous job of make-up that she did. 35 Q, mv---.Z T D unv' ,WA v-. rl-Us r. r ' Biff 'V 'Ng '-. -- k V ! , Q' P- l .fig W 'VL' Q31 ag ...NN ...- SK Q' ,Q x,k 9 I ww - STAGE Q- , fl Q I z . 1 gf? 5 576920256090 Q ydnjakuf The Class of 1956 ' 3 Avery profitable year was had by E all the members of the Junior class.

George Porchelli was rated the best all-around boy and Dario Quiros, for his fine work on photography, was a def- inite asset to the school. The class elected George Porchelli for their President, Dario Quiros, Vice- Pre sidentg David Singleton, Secretary and Brewster Witt, Treasurer. Mr. Jen- kin, their advisor, did a fine job of leadership. Their play, The Red Lamp , under the direction of Mr. Herman was well presented.

The National Honor Society This organization, known as The Tri-Steps chapter of the National Honor Society has been in existence for five years. Many years before it joined the National Honor Society, the Tri-Steps was the schools honor society. Even be- for that it existed as the Gateways Society. It has been and will be a most progressive organization in the school. To qualify for membership a student must live up to the society's four at- tributes: Leadership, Scholarship, Service, and Character. These are not hid- den characteristics but those which the members and the faculty committee feel are displayed at all times by the candidates. This is one of the reasons that the students look forward eagerly to the annual inductions in hope that they may be selected. At the beginning of the year, when Mr. Manifold, the faculty advisor took stock of things, he found the member, Morris Fabian, who more year.

The President is elected by the council itself from the Senior Class representation, whereas, the other officers are elected from the entire group. Officers for the year 1954-55 were as follows: Barry Coleman, Presi- dent, Paul Kelly, Vice-President, Zane Gordy, Secretary-Treasurer. Advisor to the Council was Dr. Bunce, Dean of the school. The Council , as it is referred to by most Penningtonians, presents the opportunity for the students to offer their ideas for better management of cer- tain school affairsjust as it givesthem a chance to express themselves in mat- ters pertaining to the government of the student body. During this year, the council suc- ceeded in several projects, some of which were: the allowing of wearing coat type sweaters as well as sport N coats, the playing of music in the din- ing room, the formation of rules, and their enforcement, for the recreation room, and the formation of a longer study period for the students. The existence of the Student Council in Pennington School has proven the fact that, with such, there can be a better relationship between student body and Pres Dr Bunce F Nudes Dis Rep B Coleman admlni5tTati0n- Pres::Z.Cordy Sec.. i H i 4-5 L. to R.: D.

Lowell Society In 1923, Dr. Green organized a club devoted to literature and called it the Lowell Society in honor of James R. Lowell. Since that time it has become one of the most active clubs in the school. lt has become the chief rival of the Agas- siz. Club and a traditional annual basketball game has been played between the clubs. This year the Lowell Society has taken an active part in the life of the school. Officers were elected during the first meetingg Morris Fabian, Presidentg H. Arthur Smith, Vice-Presidentg Conrad Youngbliut, Secretary and Colin Smith, Treasurer. The Society took frequent trips to the Bucks County Theater during the fall and saw Millicent's Cast1e , Dial M for Murder , and Murderwithout Crime , also Bus Stop , performed in Princeton. In the early part of the year, the club took a trip to Trenton to see The Egyptian , a motion picture. For the remainder ofthe year the club plans many trips, including a Shakespearian play to be given at Princeton. Largely because of the aid and in- spiration of our advisor, Mr. Cragin, this has been a successful year. He has helped the club in carryingout its main objectives, the furthering of Lit- erary understanding. L. to R.: C. Yungbliut Sec., C. Smith Treas., M. Fabian Pres. A.

We renewed our membership charter in The Science Clubs of America, with Mr. Kersey serving as our advisor. The election of officers was held in September and Jim Teamer was elected Presidentg Burton Longwell, Vice- Pre sidentg Wilbert Richardson, Executive Secretaryg George Porchelli, Record- ing Secretary and Donald Johnson, Treasurer. All members must maintain a scholastic ave rage of eighty percent or better and have certain citizenship requirements to be eligible. Candidates must be voted on by the club members and membership is by invitation. This year we enjoyed films supplied by various industries and shared many of them with the whole student body. particular phase of science which was his special interest. In March the club invited the Chemistry classes to join them on a tour of the world's largest chemical plant, Dupont Chambe rs Works in Pennsgrove, N. J. There we were conducted by bus over the whole plant and then through the Jackson Lab- oratories. Many other trips such as R. C. A. laboratories, Fairless Steel Plant, and Atlantic City Electric, are in the final planning as we go to press and we are quite sure of winning the annual Lowell-Agassiz. basketball game. We feel that we have had a very profitable year which has been benefi- cial to the entire student body as well as to the club members. 47 At each meeting a member spoke on a we 5.4 - .121 .1 i gg 'z f Tiff 5 H L. to R.: G.

The Wesley Club The nine members of the Wesley Club which is named after John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, meet every Wednesday in the music room. The purpose of the club is two-fold, and it has many projects underway to accomplish each of its goals. First, as Christians, they must help to make others aware of God. To attain this they have taken part in the Sunday Chapel Services. Secondly, the club has made the public on the outside become more aware of the school by sending groups into the community. Some of their activities have been visiting churches such as Trinity Cathedral in Trenton, and taking a trip to New York to hear some of the outstanding preachers of our time. The club will also see the displays at the Metropolitan Art Museum. The Wesley C'1ub, under the able leadership of our Headmaster, Dr. Pirnm, was one ofthe most active organizations in the school. The officers of the club are Walter Cottrell, President: Ronald Howell, Chaplain, and Robert Price, Secretary. There is no doubt that next year the club will be even more active. We give a 'big hand' to these boys for their broad and practical view on a very important part of our life. 48 Day Students This year the Day Student Body of The Pennington School is composed of forty-six boys. While many of the boys live in Pennington, New Jersey, other near-by towns including Trenton are well-represented. These boys are in the Seventh and Eighth Grades in the Lower School and Freshmen, Sophomores, Jun- iors, Seniors and Post-Graduates in the Upper School. Organized athletics such as football, basketball, baseball, and soccer contain a representation of day students. The pool is also a popular gathering place af- ter classes for the enjoyment of these boys. Day students are given the perogative of participating in the numerous activ- ities and extra-curricular events conducted at the school, such as the planned recreational programs and dances. Many of the day students join the boarding students in eating luncheon in the dining room, however, some prefer the canteen to which they have access. The boys of the Day Student Body are proud of the keen interest displayed by their mothers in the recently formed Mother's Club. All of the boys now enjoy a re-decorated and equipped recreation room which was one of the projects un- dertaken this year bythe club. The nearness of the day studentslmothers helped this project materialize much sooner. nr First Rowg L. to R.: W. Fisher,J. Higham,I. O'Nei11, I. Kersey, D. Galanos, J. Cox, W. Cole, S.

Approximately one-third of the boarding students participate in the singing. Club officers are: Conrad Youngbluit, Presidentg Jim Teamer, Vice Presidentg Burton Longwell, Librariang Lyman O'Neill, Sec- retaryg and Richard Harden, Assistant Librarian. The highlights of the year are our Christmas Carol Service with hundreds of candles lighting the Shaw Memo- rial Chapel, and the Mid-Year Musical which all the students enjoy. This year the boys sang popular as well as 'heavier' music. One of the best events of the year was the Spring Musical just before graduation. As in the past, the Glee Club has performed a useful service for the school. This year a new singing group, the sextet, was added to the program. The tenors, Jim Teamer and Dario Quirosg baritones, Burton Longwell and Robert Parry and bases, Andrew Guthrie and Fred Davis blended together quite well. They performed not only for the school, but for many other organizations in New Jersey. Their repertoire was vast, and they had the right numbers to suit the occasion. Our hats off to the six and Dr. Rarich for the entertainment that they furnished the school. L. to R.: Mr. Rarich, D, Quiros, I. Teamer, F. Davis, A. Guthrie, R. Parr, B.

Their hardest job was to prepare the nucleous of the Vester Service every Sunday. After doing a commendable job, they undertook out- side singing engagements, one of these being at Mr. Kersey's church. The highlights of the Choir programs were the Christmas Carol Service and the Lenten Program. Mr. Rarich and the boys deserve a big hand for the work and time spent during the year. A new quartet started this year. Those chosen were James Teamer, lst ten- org Dario Quiros, Znd tenorg Robert Parr, baritoneg and Frederick Davis, bass. Their first performances were the Christmas Candlelight Service and the Mid- Year Musical. Mr. Rarich directed the 'four' and they achieved well-balanced singing that made them so popular. This was truly a fine group of singers. II. to R.: Mr, Rarich, R. Parr, D. Quiros, F. Davis, J, Teamer. First Row: L. to R.: R. Harden, I. Pina, L, Brown, J, Cox, R, Brockway, R. Parr, C. White, B.

Although our hearts remain at Home, sweet home, we feelquite at home here. With great exertion, we learn the American ways, ideas and English. Of all the subjects we have, English is our most difficult, because we have to translate nearly everything into our native tongue first. With the help of Special English, we conquer most of the difficulty. This year we have boys from: Cuba, Venezuela, Aruba, Colombia, Greece, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic. On Feb. 5th, the Pennington School had the honor to present one of our foreign student's sister to give apiano concert to the student body. Miss Mirna Ruiz received a standing ovation from the boys, who had enjoyed her impressive concert. We will never forget what the school has done for us and the new friends we made here. i 'H First Row: L, to R.: I. Pina, C, Wong, D. Quiros, F. Agusti, R. Pina, I. Echeverri, F. Villegas.

Waiters and Kitchen Staff One of the most important functions performed here at school is that of the kitchen staff. It is their job to cook and supply appetizing meals all year long. There have been many favorable comments about the food this year and it is generally agreed that it was an improvement over last year. The credit for this must go to Mrs. Kersey, our able dietitian. Several new dishes were added to the menu and were well liked. Louis, our dependable first chef was ably assisted this year by a new second chef who made a big difference in our pastries and other desserts. We would like to compliment Louis on his very fine soup which has been a highlight of the meals here for some time. The waiters must come in for their share of credit too. Fast service, with a smile, was their watchword, and each meal was brightened by their sunny dis- positions. Credit for the fast service may be attributed to the work of the boys who bring the food from the kitchen, as well as to the waiters. They all dida fine job this year and we would like to thank them sincerely for their service. As extra activities, there were the banquets that were handled quite well by the staff under the direction of Mr. Kersey. lt's hats off from the class of '55 to a fine group of people who served us well. 53 The 19 Penseman EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Lyman O'Nei11 ....

I would like to say before going further that Mr. Taber deserves much credit for the proofreading he did. I was appointed Editor-in-Chief of the annual with Lyman O'Neill andWil1 Rich- ardson as assistant editors. As the time went on the editors of the different departments worked on the layout of the book. Lyman O'Neill suggested a theme On Stage for the annual and the rest of our opinions were superb. After our theme and layout had been worked together, we decided upon the dead-lines for copy and photographs. At this point I think it fitting to commend Burton Long- well and his associates for their long and hard work on Writeups throughout the production. To our Art Editor goes much credit indeed. Connie Youngbluit certainly did a magnificent job in his art work. I believe the only hard part of the producing of the 1955 Penseman was securing the gravely needed advertisements . In this area, we seemed to be able to interest no one. Finally in February, after the first shipment of multiples had been sent to Minnesota, we were able to get our financial situation moving. Along with the help of other members ofthe staff we were able to give Mr. Cressman four Bus- iness Advisorj a worthy list of ads. Lastly, I would like to thank John Van Cleve for his excellent photographic work, also, all the staffworkers and other persons who have made this 1955 Penseman the success that it is.

PENNINGTON 16, WILLIAMSON TRADE 13 The Red Raiders got off to a good start with their win over Williamson Trade School. Tom Blair and Jack McCarraher crossed the final chalk stripe with 10 and Z0 yard runs, and Frank Nikles split the uprights with both extra points. Pennington gained its only safety of the year when a Williamson pass from center went out of the end zone. PENNINGTON 7, BLAIR ACADEMY 19 The boys in Red found Blair a tough nut to crack when playing on their home pasture at Blairstown. PENNINGTON 33, HACKLEY SCHOOL 13 The Red Men showed their greatest offensive drive against Hackley School when they rolled over them to the tune of 33 to 13 Tom Blair had himself a field day, scoring three touchdowns. McCarraher and John Gallagher also scored, Gallagher's coming on an intercepted pass PENNINGTON 14, STORM KING 19 Pennington's greatest heartbreak came at the hands of the team from Corn wall-on-Hudson. Trailing 12-7, with a minute and thirty seconds to go Blair tossed a Z5 yard pass to Nikles in the end zone Blair bucked over the conver sion, and the Red Raiders led 14 to 12. But heart break was in the offing On the second play from scrimmage Storm King completed an 82. yard pass play for the final touchdown and victory. PENNINGTON 14, PRINCETON FRESHMAN B' TEAM Z8 In a game played under the lights in Princeton the Red Raiders gained the honor of being the first team to score on the then undefeated Tigers PENNINGTON 14, ADMIRAL FARRAGUT 0 The Home Coming Day crowd of 700 saw Sam Rovello and Blair hit pay dirt for Pennington's two tallies, Blair's on a 2.0 yard romp off tackle A stubborn PENNINGTON 32, EASTERN MILITARY 0 The Red Raiders rapped up the season in a blaze of glory. Blair ground out 15, 47 and 70 yard runs to the Promised Land , and tossed to Nikles for a fourth. Tommy Bishop also slid over for a score. The Pennington defense turned out a great game in picking up its second shut-out of the year. 59 'UW Y J, X 1 ,5f2'1.4S ,Q P N.

This year was no exception. The team gave many boys their first chance to play soccer, and in that respect it was a suc- cess. The record of the Pennington booters for the 1954 season was a poor 0 wins and 6 losses. The first game was played on October l, away, against the old arch rivals, Central High School. The local kids , who were well coached and well organized, whipped us 4 to 0. Mr. Don Pugliese, commuting from Trenton every day, was handling our coaching in fine style until he changed his job and had to resign as coach. He was replaced by an able young man from Trenton State Teachers College, Charles Champ Harcar. The Red Raiders, many of whom had never played soccer until this year, were continuing to improve. The next game was another tough contest against Blair Academy at Blairstown. We came out on the short end of a 7 to l score. Gordon Stanley, our second year center half-back scored our firstgoal ona scrimmage in front of the Blair goal. Our next game was on the 15th of October against Pennington Central at home. It was called off because of hurricane Hazel, and re-scheduled for October 27. The next day, Saturday, October 16, we journeyed to Bordentown to play B.M.I. We went out in front midway in the first period on a long boot by Stanley, but B.M.I. came back with one in the third period and then, with a few minutes left in the game, they scored again to win Z to 1. We played unbeaten and unscored- upon Trenton High next, but were no match for them. The final score was 3 to 0. On October Z7 the Central High game was called again because of rain. On November 1 the game with Perkiomen was cancelled because of snow and wet grounds. On November 3 the Pennington High game was played. It was a very closely fought game and the only goal was scored on a penalty kick by Pennington High's inside right. On November 10th we played against the State Prep School champs at Lawrenceville and were out played 6 to 0. This year there were only two returning lettermen on the squad, Mark Cohen, who played well on defense and the forward line, and Gordon Stanley who was a stalwart at center half-back, plus getting our two goals. Stanley also captured second team honors in the 1954 All Regent Team. Art Smith had never played soccer before, but after a few days he was quite at home in the twines and, at the end of the season, made an honorable mention berth on the All Regent Team. Rafael Pina, our aggressive little center forward also gained honorable mention. We wish the best of luck to the 1955 soccer team and all the soccer teams to come. 63 Wk.. f A1 .Mus .st K W4-'N 5 ER . 3 fi. x ,.. ., .fx 45 li! 1 -..----v , , '! ii! ,....-5 1ff',xf,i.?i J W., I h h'i Ing -5 51 :LX 'IS' wr if, X A 3 ' f , R A ,,, ' Z.

Varsity Basketball 66 Varsity Basketball The Red Raiders opened the season by losing a hard fought game to a tall New Brunswick quintet 57-43. It was New Brunswick's 7th game of the year opposed to our first. The Raiders snapped back with an impressive win over a distinguished Alumni five. Among the returning greats were Torpedo Hogan, Tom Todd, and Don Pugliese. Behind 34-Z5 at the half, the varsity rallied and came on to win 69-65. The next game was the first of many heartbreaks. We traveled to St. Bene- dicts only to lose 55-51 despite 36 points tossed in by the 6'-5 center, Bob Ed- wards. Against Law r enc eville, on their home court, the team never got to working smoothly and lost 55-45. The Pennington passers snapped back to the winning side of the ledger by staving off a late B.M.l. rally and winning 58-48. High scoring Edwards again led the way with 33 points. The game with Peddie proved to be another one of those games where everything goes wrong. The final score was 59-43. The next two games proved to be the most exciting the Red Raiders played this year. The first of the two games was played at Perkiomen. It was a hard- fought affair with Coach's charges coming out on the short end of a 66-65 score. The boys returned home to play a highly favored Admiral Farragut squad. The experts were proved wrong as the home forces played their best game of the year, winning 59-58. The Red Menhit the road again, travelling to Croyden Hall. Our squad jump- ed toa3Z-14 half-time and coasted home with an easy 65-39 victory. The team then returned home to play B.M.I. again, and the game proved to be a wel1-mer- ited team triumph. Three men, Bob Edwards, Jack Kesting, and Bob Poore hit double figures. The final score was 65-45. The Raiders journeyed to play a revengeful Farragut five for the next game. The strange court and the inability to get rolling proved too much, and the final score was 72-47 with Pennington on the short end. Again on the road, the Red and Black net men snapped back after tr ailing by six points at the half to beat Valley Forge by the score of 70-51. Bob Edwards, held to nine points in the first half, got hot and finished the game with 39 points to lead the team to an impressive victory. Jack Mc- M ar rahe r and Frank Nikles also did an excellent job of pressing the Valley Forge guards, and setting up many crucial points. Before a Parent's Day crowd, the home charges rolled up 45 points in the first quarter, and coasted to a 79-50 victory over Croyden Hall. The next game proved to be the biggest heartbreaker of the season. Trailing Blair Academy 40-18 at the end of the ha1f,the Red Raiders put onaterrific rally only to lose 66-63. In the last game of the regular season, Pennington played host to a greatly improved St. Benedicts team, and lost 67-53. In the Headmaster's Tournament,the Red Men Played some of the best ball of the season, only to lose to a strong Rutger's Prep five 79-77. Bob Edwards led the scoring with 46 points. Edwards was also selected to the first team of the All-County High, Prep Team with a mark of 26.7 points per game average. The team's 7-8 record, although not the most creditable, was not bad con- sidering the lack of good outside shooters, and the inexperience of many of the boys. Hats off to Coach Poore for turning out one of Pennington'sscrapiest clubs, no matter what the odds, they never gave up. 67 FRESHMENBASKETBALL: First row, l. to r: B. Witt, D. Qurios, C. Sahner, P.

Basketball This year the, little Red Raiders opened the season with a 46-20 loss to New Brunswick. After this defeat the l.V.'sbounccd back to defeata team from the town 49-37. The next game was against a hard fighting crew of foot- ball players from Haverford College. The little Red Raiders dropped this one 58-56 after going into overtime. Still on the losing end they traveled to Lawrenceville to take a 54-31 defeat. After these two defeats they started to click and beat B. M.l. 42-31. Their next contest was at Peddie where they had hard luck and lost 42-34. At this point in the season, George Porchelli and Bob Goodspeed, who had been sharing top scoring honors, moved up to the varsity squad. The loss of two top players did not seem to handicap the J.V.'s, though, and they handed Admiral Farragut a 50- 45 defeat on the home court. For the second contest with the town team, aided by a 54 graduate, the J.V.'s didn't come out on top. The Townies defeated the Raiders 49-40. The LV. 's then had a two game winning streak, winning over B,M,I, 47-32 and Farragut 51-39. The B.M.I. game was described by Coach Cragin as the best one of the season. To end the season as it was begun, Coach Cragin's boys dropped the last game to V,F.M.A, 50-38. After the loss of Porchelli and Goodspeed, Gary De Munik held the scoring honors, and, along with Curt Sahner, sharred outstanding playing ability. The season ended with a record of 5 wins to 6 losses. Pennington shared fine sportsmanship and good playing throughout the season, and by next year, members of the team should appear in the varsity lineup. 68 , i S .sa is s 'Q1s. - sig: h is First row, 1. to r: B.

Freshman Basketball Under the direction of Coach Poore, Pennington turned out a freshman basketball team for the first time since 1946. The team played two games. ln the first, they beat the Lambertville freshmen 42-20. In the second, they journeyed toLambertvi1le to play the Lambertville junior varsity. Although playing against boys many years their senior, they made a fine showing although winding up losing 55-34. Paxton Wilder led the scorers with 29 points for the two games. 69 3 I Q, Q5 1 P r f,W 4 x 1 , NX All ' 'LX 4 ,yLZ'9b A N I B- U . 1 X C? Nj! f? MKSJX C 5, AI! wr HJW1 D fy Q . A qw:-xfh .1 ii- V X!!

A ff' , 2, 5 I' i a-A Gil ' i f 'iv f s 2 Farewell When the goodbyes are over and we of the Senior Class of 1955 walk be- tween the pillars of the driveway for the last time, Pennington will become a memory instead of an experienceg completing another chapter in the book of life. Our friends will go to far corners of America to prepare for college or a career. There is more then the classroom side of the picture to remember. The atmosphere of the school and the daily life plays a large part to make Pen- nington's product- Only the Excellent . Every boy has learned, strived, and bettered himself in our L shaped build- ing. Starting with the classrooms on the first, second, and third floor, our teachers have guided us to make the most of our abilities. Through this guid- ance, they have given us the knowledge to make a success in the world. Our beautiful chapel with its stained glass windows tells the secrets of our religious training and beliefs. The boys of the student body, be they Protestant, Catholic, or Jew have discovered the importance of God in our daily life. The dormito- ries on the fourth floor and the three floors of the new section making up the vertical part of the L are our homes. There we studied, had fun, and slept. I'm sure that we can't forget the hall masters, the rivalries, and the inCid6ntS that occurred within those sections. The library, the sun parlor, and the rec room represent to us a major part of every day life. We also remember the three other buildings, the laundry, the infirmary, and the gymnasium. As I look back on Pennington, it represents a place where all of the Senior Class left something intangible that the school absorbed. To her we say Fare- well and Thanks.
