F'O'R'E'W'O'R'D This year marks the twenty-fifth session of St. Chris- topher's School. For a quarter of a century St. Christo- pher's has prepared boys for college and after life, as it will continue to do for many years to come. It has built up the highest ideals and standards of living in all who have spent a part of their boyhood midst the towering pines and rambling white buildings, which impart such a pleasant atmosphere of solitude and peace. St. Christopher's twenty-five years seem few when com- pared with the age of other preparatory schools in the state, but, when we consider how St. Christopher's has grown from a little house on Grove Avenue to a school of many buildings and spacious grounds, we cannot help but feel proud. Not only has St. Christopher's increased in size, but also it has gained an equal footing scholasti- cally and athletically with the older preparatory schools of the state. We have chosen athletics for the theme of this eleventh volume of RAPS AND TAPS. St. Christopher's athletic record over the past four years has been outstanding, and it seems quite fitting that we should use the theme of this annual as a means of establishing a monument that will ever recall this peak in our athletic history, and that will ever recall the man who is most responsible for it-Coach Hugh C. Brenaman.
