M. Saltzman RESSED IN A mouldy orange sweatshirt and ragged wrestling tights, a balding old man emerges from the St. Albans locker room and scampers on all fours to the soccer field. There he takes his position in the goal and proceeds to block all shots coming at him. In his four years as goalie on the Varsity soccer team, Jay Whitehead has come to be known as one of the finest in the area. However, Jay is not a one-sport man. He lettered in football his Junior year, and he throws the discus for the track team in the spring. Academically, Jay is one of the leaders of the Form. Throughout his career at St. Albans, he has consistently Hn- , ,ma A ished among the top five of the class and has gained the re- f f gli ff s -4 spect of students and masters alike. Further evidence of his gs achievements is the fact that this year Jay became a National fax fl, Meriiaiillolarship finalisti d .bl h 7- pring Jay was e ecte to two responsi e posts, t ose 74 , of Prefect and Editor-in-Chief of THE ALBANIAN. As Prefect- ,t in-Charge he has made lunch a more organized and efficient if operation, and THE ALBANIAN has undergone a complete tl! ' ' transformation. On weekends Jay is usually found in the company of the X 'fi X Kalorama Club, a cultural exchange centered at the Burmese ,,.,W.. X aj- -1-S Embassy, which lists several other St. Albans students among its members, or at a good party in the company of a dark-eyed maiden with flowing hair. Certainly Jay should have a successful four years at Yale and in his chosen career of teaching. -. THE ALBANIAN 57

His talents have even been found in the Glee Club, where he will always be remembered for his stirring rendition of We Three Kings of Orient Are. Not the true athlete, Goffas has always enjoyed sports. Whether hitting the sled for a little extra practice in blocking, cheerfully doing his push-ups in Troop 19, or heaving the shot, Q'Goffas', is always doing his best. Academically, i'Grumpy,' is one of the strongest members of the Class. His College Boards are all high, and he is al- mums' ways capable of Writing a theme on the way to class: He is Q perhaps the most attentive member of the Sixth Form Pre- Chapel Math Class, and he is an ardent student of the 'Xa Mosconi-Pinky method of pocket billiards. Grumpy's aca- CX demic ability is shown by the fact that he missed the National Merit Scholarship semi-finals by only one point, and that he IP' was granted early admission at Williams College. Grumpy spends most of his leisure time down at the Garage, trying to work out the dents in his custom Ford. A f j 'Z' charter member of the Monarchs, he is very enthusiastic about Q ff I' 75 cars. His main contribution to the automotive industry is a ,ff 'B' 2 very delicate mixture of Scot gas and water. 7 .Q ,, A ,. The Bruteis good nature and friendliness will accompany I 1'lf F,- him to Williams this coming fall and will be contributing il factors to successful pursuit of future vocation. 0 56 SENIORS1963

UTHAI VINCENT WILCOX, III Born: September 26, 1945, Waslrington, D. C. Entered St. Albans: Form C Activities: Religious Club, V, VI, Cathedral Server, V, VI, Football, V, VI, Wrestling, III, IV, V, VI, Track, III, IV, V Awards: National Merit Scbolarsbip Finalist, VI, Cum Laude, VI, StA Football, VI, StA Wrestling, III, IV, V, VI fSecond Place, Independent Scbools' Wrestling Tournamentj Special Interests: Arcbeology, paleontology College: Yale Vince, Nitro Hey Nitro, do like tbisf' cc -Luke Duncan RE YOU CRAZY or just out of your ever-loving mind?,' Thus, invincible Vince, King Kong of the wrestling mat, emerges as the victor from another argument. Actually, these excla- mations are evidences of Vince's overflowing good nature. In academics Nitro excels. Being on the I-Ieadmaster's List consistently, being a member of Cum Laude, and being a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Examination have insured Vince's acceptance at Yale. In athletics Vince is just as outstanding. This year he earned a Varsity letter for his strong defensive play in foot- ball. But the best of Vince's athletic prowess is exhibited in A mx wrestling. A Varsity letter winner for four years, Nitro has F I developed a style of his own which wins him the respect of all fa! his opponents. However, conflicting interests such as ice slcat- I ing have occasionally threatened to interfere with Vincels X wrestling. KX Vince has many varied interests. He is a strong member xx fl of both the Third and Fourth Period Common Room Clubs, R and he also participates in Religious Club. Vince is becoming XXNga-QV an authority on archaeology and spends many hours promoting -1 it. Venturing into the musical world, he easily memorizes the I melodies from most of the modern musicals and then gives X renditions of them in his bass voice which, if he were to be T Y A , here next year, would surely put the carillon to shame, for f I I I volume-if not quality.
