Far Down on the lleighls called llyker PUBUSHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF POLYTECHNIC LYGL PREPARATORY COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL BROOKLYN, N. Y. A .S 1 .. 1 X 1 'E Q: Q ' yi . N .... .3 A J. ... 5 1+ f E -. A X xi A EDICATIIIN One September not so long ago, nine- teen frightened boys came to Poly for their first day of school. That same September, a man entered Poly also for the first time. The nineteen boys, their fear gone, all are members of the class of 1957. They and the fifty-five boys who were soon to join them have matured physically, men- tally, and emotionally under Polyis sound program of athletic and scholastic training. However, most of all Poly has given them the lesson of noblerfe oblige, the unwrit- ten statute that makes a man a true gentle- man. The class of 1957 will always be in- debted for these things both to Poly and to the man under whose guidance and leadership they have progressed and ma- tured. It is with a profound feeling of defer- ence and appreciation that the class of 1957 dedicates this yearbook to: J. FoLwELL SCULL, JR.

The dictionary was the culmination of many years of careful research and meticulous work. Since the definitions have become so quaint and so amusing and since so few first editions were published, the original dictionary has become a co1lector's item only two hundred years after its publication. Poly was indeed fortunate to be presented with an original copy of this prized possession by Mr. Robert Pace '24, the president of Pace College and one of Po1y's distinguished alumni. Inasmuch as it felt that the archaic print and unusual dehnitions would be of general in- terest to the' readers of the yearbook, the board of the 1957 POLYGLOT decided to ultilize the dictionary, symbolic of the words we use to express our thoughts, as the theme of its book.

' HAT Poly has given us, we can neither measure in words nor pay back in gratitude. She has presented us with the environment neces- sary for the development of character: unequalled athletic facilities to train our bodies and further our sense of sportsmanship, courses of study to cultivate our minds, a faculty to serve not only as teachers but also as friends, and, most important, the homelife so essential in our formative years. These facets of Poly life have all laid the founda- tion for us to become useful members of society.

Ll WL, LECTION to the Cum Laude Society is con- sidered the highest scholastic honor attain- able by a Poly student. Each year ten to fifteen percent of the senior class is selected for this honor by the Headmaster and the heads of the departments. Admission is based on the highest standards of character and scholastic ability. This year twelve boys were presented their ribbons and were formally inducted into the society at a din- ner held in May. Cum Laude is a national honor society which was founded at the Tome school in 1906. The Poly chapter was established in 1908 when Dr. Hawes founded the Eta chapter of Alpha Delta Tau. ln l912 Dr. Van Vleck succeeded Dr, Hawes as secretary, held that post for forty years, .Qzurfcp 102 and resigned it to Mr. Conover two years ago. Dr. Kastendieck became president after Mr. John Kirkland Clark vacated the position in 1955.

ToLIc Uma NE ot' the highest honors attainable by any Poly student is admission into the Oasis, the school honor society. Founded in 1908, this organization seeks only those boys who display sound character and diversified ability. Admission is based on a point system, which allots values to achievements in all aspects of Poly life. The point system assures the society of the most well- rounded boys in the school. The admission elections are held mainly in the Senior lform, although there are junior elec- tions later on in the school year. The candidates in each form with the highest number of points are nominated by the Oasis for election. This year's Oasis, which met regularly to dis- cuss problems ol' Poly life, sponsored numerous activities and functions in the school. As in pre- vious years, the Oasis commenced the year with a reception for the new boys. On this occasion, the newcomers received guidebooks to help them become acquainted with Poly life. At Christmas and Thanksgiving, the Oasis col- lected money for various local charities. In this same spirit the society sponsored a basketball game and a subsequent dance to raise liunds for the March of Dimes. In addition, the Oasis played host to Mahgoub Obeid Taha, a Heriild 'lrifzlrzle delegate from the Sudan. After his pleasant and informative visit. the Oasis presented Mahgoub with a gift and inducted him into the society as an honorary member. Pniijdezzf .

We who are ahout to leave shall forever hold precious the rememhrances of the fleeting Poly years. Many years hence we shall look with much nostalgia at this yearluook, The POLYGLOT, which unfolds a panorama in picture and story of the past year. We shall vi- cariously relive the humor, the joy, and the ex- citement of our last year. This POLYGLOT, side hy side with its fifty- six predecessors, will eventually take its place on the shelves of the school library, on the hook- case in the Przlygruz ofhce, and in the 'GLOT closet. Perhaps it will soon be forgotten. How- ever, for the seventy-four seniors of this year's class, the POLYGLOT will remain as a precious 10 memento to take to college campuses throughout the land and ultimately to find a permanent place in their lihraries. For the board, however, the 'GLOT has an even more important significance. The POLY- GLOT represents the culmination not only of our work at school hut also of our work on the year- hook. Indeed, we have worked hard throughout the year in an effort to produce a hook worthy of the name it bears. The POLYGLOT, unlike many school year- hooks, is entirely produced hy the hoard. The articles, art work, photographic layouts, and h- nances are all the products of the various depart- ments listed below. In truth the 'GLOT of 1957 is the concrete fruition of our ideas and the syn- thesizing of our various departments. ---..pyuqup-4,--,---vm., -..-..:.,- ....r..-..f---W...-H.,-....,7fv., ,,,,,,, E. The Board of Editors of course assume full responsibility for the performance of the duties assigned to them, They have endeavored to exe- cute these duties to their utmost capacity. What- ever defects which may appear in the 'GLOT are solely their own. Finally, every reader of the POLYGLOT should realize that the yearbook is something which the senior class bequeaths to the school and which the school, in a sense, leaves to the senior sincerely hope that this year's 'GLOT will serve as a source of entertainment and happy memories class.

UBLISHING the news faithfully week by week, this year's Polygon remained as one ot the finest secondary school newspapers in the nation by winning, for the twenty-fourth con- secutive time, the medalist rating of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. Ever since its incep- tion in 1914 as the first school newspaper in Brooklyn, the 'Gnu has consistently maintained this high standard. Boasting unusual make-up and expanded pho- tographic work, the Polygozz appeared twenty- four times, bringing school news and features to approximately 3200 students and alumni. Note- 8 worthy in this year's publications were the many feature articles, unique news, and extended sports coverage. The 'Gam carrying the first official announce- ment of the new Honor and Credit system, polled student opinion on this and various other contro- versial school topics. The editorial page was en- livened by a satirical insight into school happen- ings by means of the Around the School col- umn and the periodic theater tips. The work of the editor-in-chief, sports editor, and business manager was especially commendable.

Qmmcllzb Club HE actors of the Upper School entertained the student body this year with their produc- tion of Tu'el1'e Allgry Men, originally presented on Studio One over CBS-TV. The three'act play, written by Reginald Rose, is a tense jury room debate concerning the guilt or innocence of a nineteen-year-old boy charged with killing his father, At the outset of the trial, eleven of the jurors are in favor of convictiong however, the twelfth has doubts as to the culpa- bility of the boy. As the record of the trial is re- examined and the murder re-enacted, tension mounts, tempers grow short, and the jurors bc- come twelve angry men. The play was excellently performed by Poly's Thespians, directed admirably by Mr. Wiiider, and well received by the whole school.

The hard-hitting aggressive team was built around Captain Sirianni, Ken Andreozzi, Cliff c 'V -mf' . I i I 4-L J ' In Q g is x-I X Bernstein Ostergren Bernstein, Bruce Henningsen, Phil Hertz, and Tony Valerio. Teamwork and the desire to play were the keys to successg the whole team deserves praise for its splendid achievement. In the opening game of the season, the Blue and Gray routed Stony Brook, 24-6. Paced by Bruce I-Ienningsen's four touchdowns, the ground attack overwhelmed the Stony Brook eleven. Timely punts by Phil Hertz, the alertness of Nick Sirianni, and the powerful line play of Ken Andre- ozzi, Chuck Franco, and Tony Valerio formed an almost invulnerable defense. In the next encounter, a weak Adelphi squad was crushed by the overwhelming score of 85-0.

Mickey Solomon led the field with three T. D.'sg Captain Sirianni, Vinnie Chiarello, Billy Drucker, and Bruce Henningsen each accounted for two. Hackley, participating for the first time in Ivy League football, was the next team to invade our territory. Sporting a 3-0 record and acclaimed by sportswriters as one of the best teams in West- chester, the Tarrytowners arrived at Dyker Heights with high hopes. Capitalizing on Hack- ley's mistakes, the Poly gridders triumphed 25-13. The highlight of the game was a touchdown scored by Phil Hertz on an intercepted Hackley pass. Two interceptions by Bruce Henningsen, one by Captain Sirianni, the alertness of Wes Ostergren in recovering two fumbles, and the aggressiveness of Ken Andreozzi sparked the de- fense. Being the only team in the Ivy League to work from a single wing formation, the Tuttlemen easily overpowered their next opponent, River- dale. The Big Red was blanked for the first time in ten years, 19-O. Mickey Solomon, ably replac- ing the injured Billy Drucker at right halfback, scored in the first period on a 9-yard reverse around left end. After the halftime intermission, Henningsen intercepted Z1 pass and returned it seventy yards for a touchdown. Art Kaplan notched the last T. D. on a right end sweep.

A pass from Hertz to Hen- ningsen covering sixty yards and another aerial from Henningsen to Hertz were the outstanding offensive plays of the day. Scoring at least once in every period, the team defeated Trinity, 32-6, the following week. Bruce Henningsen accounted for two T. D.'s with beau- tiful runs of sixty-one and sixty-four yards. ln the third period Phil Hertz took the pigskin on his own twenty yard line and raced eighty yards to pay dirt. Bernie Sarrel was the outstanding player on defense. In the last game of the season, the gridders swamped St. Paul's, 41-13. Captain Nick Sirianni played the best game of his football career. Nick not only scored two touchdowns, but he also averaged eleven yards per carry, Sirianni's excel- lent game was complemented by the superlative performances of Andreozzi, Hertz, and Sarrel.

Stony Brook, however, was too strong for our hoopsters and defeated them by a score of SO-30, After defeating Horace Mann, the Poly tive lost a close game to Hackley, SO-47. The next six games seemed to spell an Ivy League cham- pionship. The Blue and Gray played good hall, routing Adelphi, Rutgers Prep, Curtis, St. Pauls, Trinity, and Riverdale in consecutive games. Stony Brook, however, put the damper on our hopes as it proved itself superior with a score of 6651.

Baseball LIMAXING one of the most brilliant ath- letic years in our history, with an overall record of twelve victories and four defeats, the 1956 baseball team defeated Horace Mann at Baker Field for the Ivy League crown. The Blue and Gray was the first team to win the title under the newly-inaugurated two division system. After losing practice games to Madison and Curtis high schools, the Blue and Gray showed its true colors by vanquishing Adelphi, Horace Mann, Stony Brook, Riverdale, and St. Paul's. This streak, of five victories, however, was inter- rupted by a 7-4 loss to Trinity. After whipping Adelphi again, the Poly nine suffered defeat at the hands of Hackley. Bouncing back, the team disposed of Stony Brook and then clinched the Southern Division crown in an extra inning 6-5 triumph over St. Paul. Using a 4-O rout of Brooklyn Tech as a warm- up, our nine then proceeded to wallop Horace Mann, 8-0, for the Ivy League championship. The team's three big hitters, Captain ,lohn Mal- hame, Chuck Kaufman, and Phil Hertz-behind the superb pitching of Fred Shwom-sparked the team throughout the season. A 6-11 win over Brooklyn Prep and a 1-0 triumph over St. Ann's in 11 innings, a game highlighted by the fine pitching performance of Fred Shwom, brought the season to a fitting conclusion. The following were awarded P, P. : Captain Malhame, Brower, Freundlich, Gilbert, P. Hertz, il. Howie, C. Kaufman, Montalbano, Pollack, Shear, Shwom, N. Sirianni, and Manager Tolk. Coach: Mr. Parker.

Poly was founded a century ago with the ideal of offering the advantage of the hnest kind of academic training usurrounded hy the saving influences of home and the family circle. The Country Day School has enhanced that ideal by providing an environment ol' work and of play in an eight-hour school-day designed to foster the development of scholarship. character. and vision in a well-rounded young man. But each night and every weekend the school gives the lmoy hack to his home and family for those things which only home can pro- vide. This is a way of life Poly ollers.

It seems I took an odyssey. And strange-type things confronted me. 'Twas on a certain Saturdayg And in cube hall I was doomed to stay. I left my house, the street I crossed. And suddenly I was quite lost. When what appeared to my surprise? A penguin, yet, with slanted eyes. Wl1ere can I be ? I asked the bird. Discriminate was his sole word. I walked some more when suddenly A clown came strolling up to me. I asked directions of the jester, Spake he, My friend, please to not pester. But now three wretched souls passed by Blood-caked of limb and dim of eye. I asked Who thus live men destroys ? They mumbled Hail the Dean of Boys! I felt myself grow tense and pale. Were my eyes bad? Was that a whale Which lumbered up and said hello? In truth, it really seemed quite so. But he ran off in hurried flight.

Election to this body is based on character and diversified ability. The department heads of the society nominate new candidates for election, and then proceed to choose the new members by secret ballot. During the past year the Italian Club has participated in numerous aristocratic functions which are indicative of the tastes of the membership. By the same token, with great pleasure, in appreciation for guiding through our formulative period, we hereby take this opportunity to dedicate this page to Archbishop J. Theodore Pearlman.
