Ihr Gllaza nf 1552 CLASS HISTORY The class of 1952 originated with John Jacquemot, in January 1946. Mo arrived as a flyweight who sat down to a steak dinner, in order to keep his championship weight up to par. A bundle of bones arrived in a Vermont licensed automobile, in September 1946. It was Donald Ripley who worked hard to keep up his bone weight champion- ship. Joel Everett Hall, wrench in hand and mechanics in his head, entered the class in 1947, to become a specialist in Fords. The autumn of 1948 saw five new members ioin the class: Donne Colton, the athletic wonder from Martinsville, N. J. He proved himself a good leader, Peter Randall, with skis over his shoulder, a hockey stick under his arm and ice- skates in his hands, arrived from Montreal, Jeffrey Stansbury, from Bloomfield, N. J., became the class scholar and literary expert, Booth Taggart transferred from Newark Academy. This was Newark's loss and our gain. His financial prowess points to great achievement, Laurence Weymouth, the strong and silent thinker arrived from Somerville, N. J. The year 1949 introduced two new students to the class: Kit Southward, the class equestrian and photographer, who arrived from East Orange, N. J., and, David Walkden, a Connecticut Yankee, who hailed from Rowayton. Hal Green, Texan cowboy from the town of Madison, N. J. swaggered up the steps of Conover House, with his guitar slung over his shoulders and cowboy hat atop his head, ioined the class, in September 1950. In the same month, the following mem- bers arrived: Albert Hart, with his Chesterfields to lead many unscheduled biological trips, Keith Hyer, who motored from Keyport, N. J. Edwin Kershaw Simpson, III the tallest boy of the class, inspired his classmates with his artistic creations, born in Staten Island, David Ward, with his wit , became the class iester and always loved East Orange, New Jersey. In October of 1950, the class greeted the arrival of a second horseman, Robert Speck, from Fairlawn, New Jersey. Vincent Telesco entered St. Bernard's, in September 1951, from the wide open spaces of Peapack, as a post-graduate student. lf the U. S. Armed Forces, or other places of learning had not attracted at least nineteen young men, we would have had a longer Class History. John Jacquemot Donald Ripley E91
