In addition to his responsibilities as executive of one of Pittsburghis large family- owned businesses-an obligation relinquished only two years ago-Mr. E. Bruce Hill has for many years acted as Chairman of the Shady Side Board of Trustees. During the war years, lVIr. Hill combined with his duties as bank director, chair- man of an advisory board for the Oflice of Price Administration, and leader in the Sixth United Presbyterian Church, the difficult task of guiding the Academy through a period of reorganization. As chief of the School's policy makers, Mr. Hill has guided Shady Side wisely, effectuating progressive ideas ranging from a teacher's retirement program to the erection of Memorial Hall. Under his administration, Shady Side's plant, facilities, and financial status have been greatly improved. The Academy annual in 1901 pictured Mr. Hill as a member of the graduating class, the 1954 Academian pictures him again. An untiring worker in community and school projects, Mr, E. Bruce Hill exemplifies the men of vision who are build- ing Pittsburgh and Shady Side anew. E BRUCE HILL President Board of Trustees V F ai 'n 's.,i4uv GEORGE L. FOLLANSBFF Headmaster In the first year of his administration, Mr. George L. F ollansbee, Headmaster, has left upon the Academy a sharp imprint. After his graduation from Shady Side twenty-four years ago, Mr. Follansbee attended Princeton University, where, before he graduated in 1934 with an A.B. degree, he had been captain of the baseball team and manager of the wrestling team as well as President of the Westminster Society and Intra-Collegiate Board. He later did graduate work at New York University and the University of Pittsburgh. Following a brief period of work with a Pittsburgh steel corporation, Mr. Fol- lansbee became a teacher of biology at Philips and soon head of the department. Long interested in work with boys, the new headmaster, an athlete and avid sports fan, in recent years has served as director of youth activities at Chautauqua, where he, his wife and two children, Geof and Karen, spend the summer. In September, lNIr. Follansbee returned to his native city and alma mater be- cause, . . . the ties were still there, the pull was great, the challenge stimulating. His return to the Academy in 1953 provided the dynamic leadership necessary to make Shady Side complement the current rebirth of Pittsburgh. and lead Shady Side 9 forward 10 JuNloR SCHOOL Faculty' Underformers , Seventh Farmers s e SENIOR S CHOOL Facqny and office Sfaff e 'Underformers e s Graduating Class ' The rejuvenation of Pittsburgh-a city which until recently was stifling under soot and cinders- has required bold and imaginative men.

The record shows two wins, one defeat-' however, the Junior School football squad had a memorable season, defeating for the first time in many years the Senior School Second F ormers.

By the end of the fourth quarter, Flan- nery had scored two touchdowns, and Reiber two extra points.

The Junior School soccer team, a spirited and courageous group, met superior teams and unlucky breaks without letting despair mar its play. Bruce Hill's field leadership pepped up every player, and Sam Leezer's powerful kicking always served to encourage the team and its rooters. Although the team did not win any game and tied but one-that with the Valley School of Ligonierkthe players do not consider that lone tie game the high point of the season. A game with the Senior School provided the big thrill for the boys-a goal scored against their older and more experienced schoolmates. The players, although not satisfied with their record, can be proud of the respect they earned from their opponents for fair, hard play. merge in each sporf!

On September 24, the team was defeated by a powerful W.P.S.D. squad, despite last-quarter scores by Benford and Runnette. On September 29, Captain Strem punched through two fourth- quarter goals, which proved to be the downfall of Connelly Vocational. Washington Vocational bowed to a powerful home team on October 1. Solo- mon scored two goals, while Smelzer, Hedberg, and Strem tallied one apiece. In the first league contest on October 10, Shady Side downed the VV.R.A. team in a thriller at Hudson, Ohio. Captain Strem once again accounted for two goals, and Benford the other. On October 13, the team played host to Connelly Vocational. Hedberg provided the team with two goals, both in the first half. A trip to Washington Vocational three days later resulted coordinafion of mind and body. in another Indian victory when Strem and Runn- ette scored in a close 2-1 decision. VV.P.S.D. again left S.S.A. defeated on October 19 in spite of scores by Adams and Strem. However, a boisterous and triumphant team returned from Detroit, following a 6-0 victory at Cranbrook on October 241. Smelzer and Hedberg had each tallied twice while Runn- ette and Solomon had accounted for one apiece. On Homecoming Day, October 31, the powerful University line tallied five first-half goals, far out- weighing the goals by Solomon and Sutherland in the last period. A decisive victory at Kiski followed on November 2, when Strem, Hedberg, and Runnette scored. In the last game of the sea- son, Shady Side and Nichols played to a 2-2 tie, Solomon and Runnette shared the scoring honors. The season ended with the Indians in the run- ner-up slot in the Inter-state Prepartory School League, and with an over-all 7-3-3 record.

'Walter Jones took over as Athletic Director and head coach of the track team. Coach Jones's main problem, a lack of returning letter- men, meant much work would be needed to re- build nearly every part of the team. In 1953, the season ended with a record of three wins, four losses, and one tie. Two S.S.A. records fell, one broken again later in the spring. On May 8, in the 440 yard dash, Co-captain Karl Van Horn '53 clipped one second off the record of 52.8 sec- onds, and on hlay 12, Richard Repp '53 lowered the time for the 180 low hurdles to 21.7 seconds. In the Inter-State Preparatory School League meet at Hudson, Ohio, on May 30, Shady Side finished second with 44 points, led only by the host Western Reserve team. In this meet, Repp im- proved his own mark for the low hurdles by six- tenths of a second. ln spring, S.S.A. sprinfers -3 Coach Jones to Captain Flannery: All we need now is about twenty more men out for track. 106 .yt TRACK gain grit and stamina.

Coached by Mr. Robert D. Abercrombie and captained by Jack Shenkan, the team was prepared, as the Academian went to press, to protect the six- win-three-loss record of the 1953 season-a summary of which follows. In the season opener against Ambridge, on April 17, the Indians, by taking points in practically every match, came out victorious, 10-5. Shenkan with an 86 was medalist. At the Highland Country Club on April 24 VVest View defeated SSA, 11-4. Foster with an 8Q was the only Academy winner. By defeating Kiski, 11-4, at Oakmont on April 27, SSA got back on a winning streak which lasted through Niay 1, when SSA took Central Catholic 13M-IVZ, and May 4, when Ambridge Went down to total defeat, 15-0. VVest View however, in a return match at the Field Club, on May 11 edged the Indians out, SM-GM. The canceling of matches with Linsly on May 15 and Penn High on May 18 gave the golfers time to regain their winning form, so that they dumped Yvilkinsburg on May 19, at the Field Club, with a score of HM-SM. Playing Kiski on May 25 at Fox Chapel, the linksmen sunk their oppo- nents, 12-3, thus achieving their second victory over Kiski and their sixth Win of the season. The bid to make the wins number seven failed on May Q9, when the Faculty Team, composed of Messrs. Abercrombie and 1Yilkison, defeated the varsity, IOM-'7M.

Schwartz, Rodgers, Smelzer, Jim Hedberg fCaptainJ, Bill Runnette, C. Sutherland, and Herrington fManagerQ. From the start of the season, the 1954 tennis team, coached by Mr. Richard Gregory and captained by Jim Hedberg, was faced with a difhcult problem-upholding the undefeated, 13-win, 6 shut-out record of the '53 squad which was led by Mr. John Colbaugh and Richard Davis. In- cluded in the '54 season's fourteen game card are traditional rivals such as Mount Lebanon, Edgewood, and Wilkins- burg, along with several local schools and league rivals. Following is a brief resume of the 1953 matches. On April 15, the season got under way, as the netmen got off to a good start, defeating Arnold High School in a home game, 4-1. The following Wednesday, April 22, by beating Edge- wood High School 4-0, the Indians gained their first shut- out. Arnold again fell victim to the powerful S.S.A. squad in a return match on April 23, 4-1. On April 25, against Kiski, S.S.A. picked up its second shut-out, 6-0. The next game also was a shut-out, this time at the expense of Edgewood High School, on April 28. The first Inter-State Preparatory School League en- counter was with Western Reserve on May 2, at Shady Side. After the match the S.S.A. players left the courts with a 4-1 victory to their credit. On May 5, Mount Lebanon was the next to topple, this time by a score of 8-1. With over half of the matches played, the prospect of an undefeated season became a very dis- tinct possibility. At Nichols on May 9, the law of averages nearly caught up, however, the Indians, winning the last three matches, triumphed 3-2. To show there was no slow-down, in a return match with Mount Lebanon on May 12, the S.S.A. netmen emerged victorious. Next, the Indians tripped up Wilkinsburg 6-0 on May 19. The third league match, however, with University proved more difficult than all previous encounters, but Shady Side managed to squeeze through with a 3-2 victory. May 25 found S.S.A. fighting Kiski and winning 6-0. The last match with Cranbrook on May 30 was not de- cided until the last doubles when Dennis and Smelzer de- feated their opponents, giving the victory to S.S.A., 3-2 and completing for the 1953 team an undefeated season.

Follansbee, took a more active role this year in its attempt to establish better student-faculty relations, to assume leadership in school activities, and to set high standards for the rest of the stu- dent body. Cooperating with the faculty, the Council gained limited au- thority in matters of student discipline and also effected improve- ments in dormitory and bus rules. Monthly reports to the student body were an innovation of the year.

Besides supplying music at school dances and the Alumni Tea, this organization broadcasted at th Tap Days, home football and track contests, and the com- mencement exercises. This year the purchase of' stands on which the club,s four loud speakers can be mounted and the reconditioning of their several Walkie-talkies permitted more complete coverage of events than ever before. This equipment, which is so mobile that it can be used almost anywhere on the campus, is paid for and kept up by the Musical Clubs. e Sargon Mr. Howard manipulates the mike to keep the football crowd informed on downs and yardage. 134 and publicize the school!

TRIBUTE MERLE M. ALEXANDER After thirty-six years of service to Shady Side, hir. liferle BI. Alexander retires. The Dean has been intimately connected with the growth of the Academy from a school housed in one building, to a thriving day and boarding school with two campuses. In performing his duties as an admissions officer, he has been in a key position, in his work with the alumni he has been highly influential in building up alumni support for Academy projects. As head of the science department, he has prepared hundreds of boys for intensive study of the sciences at the college level, as Dean he has insisted always upon gentlemanly conduct, usually in a quiet man- ner, but occasionally with an effective flash of temper. That the Dean and Mrs. Alexander have always been popular with young faculty and alumni is ample indication of their youthful spirit. lilrs. Alexander has devoted large amounts of time and energy to helping the Dean with alumni business and affairs. The campus family and the alumni will indeed miss them both. VVe sincerely hope that the Alexanders, new leisure will not take them far from the sphere of Shady Side. 174 F REWELL DONAIJJ -XNGVS HOLDING In a swimming accident last sununer, Donald Angus Holding died. There is no way to soften the words, or make them say anything else. Ile is gone, and with him goes some of the earnestness and inspiration he brought to the activi- ties of Shady Side. In his three years at the Senior School, Don rarely, if ever, missed the honor roll. IIC was an all-round athlete, having been a valuable member of the varsity soccer squad in the fall, a varsity wrestler in the winter, and in the spring, a two-year lettermau on the golf squad. Don was also an active participant in extracurricular activities. IIe was a writer for the AYFII'-S' and a member of the Glee Club. An active member of the Photography Club for two years, he was slated to be a photographer for both the .Yczrs and the Academ ian. In manner, Don was always vivacious and active. He had a keen sense of humor, a genuine appreciation of justice, and habits of thoughtfulness and accuracyfall qualities which generally presage notable lives during years of maturity. The loss to his family and friends is incalculable. But there is no Way to soften the Words or make them say anything else. Ive lost Don Holding, the boy, on July 20, 1953. Ilis memory remains! 175 Pittsburglfs Point Project-now being developed . . . Pittsburgh - Shady Side. Reborn, both move forward! Memorial Hall-now under construction. 176 f fr I 1 The billion-dollar renaissance of Pittsburgh would be meaningless and indeed impossible with- out the backing of the city's industry. lYith new confidence business houses and industrial concerns have invested millions to expand facilities and broaden services. To a certain extent dependent upon and sensi- tive to Pittsburgh's economy, Shady Side catches and reflects the changes in the city's spirit. With the resurgence of the city and its accompanying optimism, Shady Side- fully aware of its responsi- bilities and opportunitiesgmoves forward!

The first spade of dirt was turned on Commencement Day, June 12, 1953, and actual construc- tion began November l2. With the arrival of spring, construction moved rapidly ahead toward the projected November, 19,54 comple- tion date. Memorial Hall will serve mainly as a of assembly, supplanting e Hall chapel. room itself will pro- vide for 310. Incorporated into this room will be sorely needed audio-visual facilities. Also featured will be indirect lighting, hot and cold air conditioning, and a com- plete speaker system. The main hall will be trimmed in the traditional school colors, gold and blue. A lounge room, located in the base- ment, will be set aside as anmaddi- tional meeting place, with provi- sions made for the addition of a kitchen. Sound-proof music rooms will be built along the west wall of the 106 foot passageway joining Memorial and Rowe Halls. Planned for the future are twin colonnades running from the new building to Rowe. It is also hoped that work on a new 5ll0,000 sci- ence wing, adjacent to the passage- way, will be started inthe very near future.
