You must be very active in sports. Why, yes suh, Canon Martin, sometimes I play ping-pong. And so, two years ago, St. Albans imported a soft-voiced, tall boy from Kilgore, Texas, perhaps in the hope of establishing a successful ping-pong team. However, whether or not this was the reason for admitting him, Tex has forsaken the ping- .- jj ,f,, N,-. ,X CQ,-- he pong table in favor of other interests. One of the charter 'TU fffksx members of the gymnastics team, he was its virtual captain ' T this year, excelling on the parallel bars and setting a School record in the rope climb. Spring finds him pole vaulting, and he is one of St. Albans' best in this art. A promising football career was cut short last year by a broken ankle. V 'X'Q , Nick's major distinction on the Close, however, has been Pj' I I in the Drama Club. Two years ago, he achieved prominence iv as a belligerent bartender in Abl Wilderness. Last year, he ' '53 f had one of the major roles in Obey's Noab. This year, he had l the lead role in Dinny and tlve Witcbes. As President of the Club, Nick's major achievement has been the new policy of i if joint meetings between the NCS and St. Albans Players' Clubs. His reward for this popular arrangement was the acquisition of a girl who is a prominent member of the NCS Players' Club. We are sure that the Lone Star State will be glad to welcome Ter home. Q.

I have to get ads for THE ALBANIAN. You know as well as I do that if I don't get ads, there won't be any yearbook. You wouldn't want to see White- head go nuts, would you? With this curt answer Bobby leaves his companion dumbfounded and heads for the wilds. Although Bob had to sacrifice sports, much to his dismay, he did contribute greatly to the financial department. Had he not cut athletics, Whitehead might have gone nuts. Rob not only helped THE ALBANIAN, he also contributed some material to an unknown lit- erary publication called GYRE. Much to the surprise of his friends, Robbie got several good poems printed. He appeared in two successive editions and clearly displayed that he has a 0 deep feeling for the world around him. And yet, he remained 0 , a member of uthe fellows. 0 . IL Many people have conjectured about Bob's feeling to- . l 0 ward life, and a large number of friends will jump to praise ix 'X- him.

Entered St. Albans: Form C Activities: Catbedral Server, V, VI, Glee Club, lV, V, VI, Football, lll, IV, V, VI fCo-captainjg Basliet- ball, Ill, IV, V, Track, Ill, IV5 Tennis, V, Troop 19, VI, Prefect, VI, Class Treasurer, V Awards: jerusalem Cross, VI, StA-3 Football, IV, StA Football, V, VI, StA Basketball, V Special Interests: Swimming, atbletics College: Washington and Lee Harry, Hobie I want you guys to be agile, mobile, and bostilef, -Pete Boinas HE QUARTERBACK FADES BACK ancl looks for his receiver in the Hat. He cocks his arm and fires. Suddenly, from nowhere, a 185-lb. giraffe gallops in, intercepts, and heads for the end zone. As he nears the ten-yard line, he delicately places his hand in the face of a would-be tackler, tramples him into the dirt, and without breaking stride, crosses the goal line. Harry Hobart has just accomplished his dream. A Harry not only scored his touchdown this year, but fulfilled many of the other dreams he must have had when he started his nine-year career at St. Albans. His quiet, unassuming, yet forceful manner won the respect of his schoolmates, and they showed it by electing him Co-captain of the Varsity football team and Prefect of the School fone of the few present Prefects to have been a Lower School Prefectl . Harry's contribution to the football team this year as the agile, mobile, and hostile monster mann was great, however, it could not match that of his Junior year, when he gave his two front teeth to the end that the football team should not perish. His giving of himself manifests itself in many ways. Sixth Formers were surprised this year to find a radio in The Room. Who could have put it there? Harry Hobart, of course. It is not surprising at all that he is one of the seven boys of the School to struggle out of bed an hour early once a week to serve at: the early service at the Cathedral. Harry's popularity and unselfishness will benefit both him and Washington and Lee greatly next year. 32 SENIORS1963
