The A N I) H E A N Page Thirty-one Vocational Activities Not the least by far in the objectives of St. Andrew ' s is the aim of preparing the students for a full and successful life through basic preparation in some form of activity which may be of aid to them in the future. All boys from the youngest at Bishop McVickar Hall to the more mature at Coleman are given responsibilities which are commensurate with their age and ability. These duties may include simple household tasks or take on the complexity of supervision at the farm or shop with its accompanying duties. In no respect is any individual left out of this program which in itself may provide an education for many. Through the introduction to routine and punc- tuality found in these organized projects the boy is brought closer to the realities of his later life and obtains a far greater insight and understanding of the proper attitudes and ideals which are to be expected of him in the future. It is not uncommon to hear from a graduate, regardless of what field of endeavor he has entered, to the effect that his vocational training here at St. Andrew ' s has been of inestimable value to him in that transformation from a supervised life to one of his own making. Learning by Doing , is too often overlooked in the search for education. Training for a vocation will give the boy a feeling of security and confidence which will serve him well.

Baseball 1953 With the opening of baseball season we find St. Andrew ' s has a few veterans to form a nucleus for this year ' s team. They are: Charles Fields, Lindsay Steele, Carl Morse, Bob Jones, Dick Nettles, Bill Esser and Captain John Griffiths. The team should be strong down the middle with Esser, AAorse and Sanford catching; Griffiths on the mound; Bob Jones at second base; and either Jim Duke or Steele in center-field. We will have to depend on Griffiths to carry ninety percent of the pitching burden since he is the only returning moundsman. In addition to this the Middlers have entered a Junior High School league which should lead to better trained boys in the lower grades for our future varsity teams. Both teams will try their best for a good season.
