Your room, so new to sorrow, How suddenly dark-how strangely we were there- Who all week had been studying, Sir, for you, Longer than usual-though you would not hear The lines we read, nor mark our Composition. O Sir, when there was a Time, we never told you- Never a voice could say it, while you listened- Please God you knew! Always-Without our telling. You were our friend. You taught us more than Latin. That language was not dead to you, nor ancient, Whose Caesar, Cicero we might have read As other boys will read them now. But, Sir, You held a lamp more clear for us: Yourself- 'The beam that safely led our faltering Best To yours, who knowing-loved all Nobleness. You strove to use our stubborn minds for Truth. You took each frailest lance, and steadied it With your kind steel. You lent us thoughtfulness. Riches you gave, beyond our hearts to measure- You led us far- Dear Sir, our thanks to you. A. P. J.

Thomas Jeferson, founder of the University, fashioned the Rotunda after the Pantheon in Rome. The Italian motif, so prevalent in Jeifersonian architecture. is further evidenced in the Serpentine walls about the campus. The University of Virginia has played a leading part in the life of the state and the nation for many generations. --5, I 3' . A.

Naval Academy, First on our list of distinguished seniors comes good ole Bill, Al- though he has been at St. Christopher's only two short years, Bill has made noteworthy A 'wgress both athletically and scholastically. He is hard-working, serious, and able, and with the help of these qualities, he has achieved a good measure of success in every activity he has entered. For the past two seasons he has been a bulwark of strength in the Red and Gray line. He climaxed his second year of play with All-City and All-State honors. In addition he has been outstanding in basketball and trackrwinning his monogram in both sports. On the court Bill held down the Pivot post, while in track, he excelled in the weight department. Bill left us for a two-months' spell last winter to take courses at Annapolis upon preparing for entry in the Naval Academy. But he re- turned to school in time to pass his required work for graduation. And it is to this accomplishment of Bill's that we point with pride. For he is the third St. Christopher's graduate to enter the Naval Academy in the past four years. We are truly proud to have another representative 1n,the Navy: and Bill, you should be proud to follow the footsteps of Midshipmen Reid and Spencer. So in closing, we salute Midshipman Chewning of the U.S.N., suh. You re a sure bet to sink the Army at Annapolis, Bill, Andrew Henry Christian RICHMQND.

Will enter Ihe Virginia Mill'- lary Inslilult-. Many years ago when dear old St. C. was comparatively in its infancy, and an electric clock in study hall was just a pipe dream, there strolled on this campus a childish-looking tand he was a childj lad called Louie. But times have changed, and so has Louie, Now he is a tall, handsome fellow who takes great delight in playing Don Juan to the fair sex, and stirring up mischief in some way, shape, or form, generally thc Seventh. Although serious-minded when the occasion demands, Louie is usually carefree and witty, and is continually getting off wisecracks which seem to echo around the room, one upon another. But let's look at Louie from another standpoint. On many a junior and midget football team. he has been a mainstay. And during his last two years, he has de- voted much of his time to track. In the classroom Louie has never let his studies get the best of him. He is truly conscientious, and because of this. he has won the respect of teachers and boys alike, Having boarded at St. C. for the past five years, Louie has won great popularity for himself in the department, and has become one of its leaders. But as all good things come to an end, so must Louie's career as a boarder and student of St. Christopher's draw to a close. Al- though still undecided about next year, we think Louie is leaning slightly towards V.M.I. And we can conhdently say that his record there will be a credit to him and the pride of St. Christopher's, William Maury Hill RICHMOND, VA.

He hitched his wagon to a star and has made quite a name for himself. Though the youngest member of the Class of '38, he is by no means the baby. In athletics, he has success- fully competed with the best: in scholastic ability he is near the top of his class. Billy is noted for his perseverance. This outstanding characteristic has enabled him to overcome all obstacles in his long journey through this institution. He is ready, willing, and able for almost any kind of work. and has given valuable assistance to the staffs of both the Pine Needle and RAPS AND TAPS. A good mixer, Willie has left behind him a warm place in the hearts of all those who have had the pleasure of knowing him. He doesn't make a big noise. but just gets things done in his own quiet little way. Rewarding women as a necessary evil, Billy has found sufhcient time to grace the fairer sex with his company. Indeed, he has attained no lit- tle success in the field of silent smoochers. His charming, reserved man- ner seems to have quite a winning way. St. Christopher's will not say good-bye to this distinguished mem- ber of the class of IQQ8, for we expect to find him with us next year as a member of the post-graduate form. XVherever he matriculates next year, we may be sure that he will continue the good work he began at St. C. .14-.

It doesn't seem possible that Bobby is going to leave us. He has been here for seven years, and during that time has made himself a vital Part of the internal workings of St. Christopher's School. Now when he is leaving us it is as though we are losing our right arm. ' The scholar of the school-for the past three years he has led his Class scholastically. When a Seventh Former can eke out a grade higher than Bobby's, he knows that he has done something to write home about. 'One would think from Bobby's long list of scholastic honors that his scholastic duties occupy the best part of his time. This is not true. He finds time to take part in athletics and in extra-curricula activities. He is editor of Raps and Taps, a member of the Student Honor Com- mittee, member of the Literary Team, Director of the Missionary Society -but to go on would be triteness. a mere repetition of the long list of honors above. Observe them, and you will notice that Bobby has taken Part in every form of athletics that the school proffers. As editor of this volume. he has done the best part of the work toward making it a success, Constantly throughout the year he has been bothered by losing his valuable assistants. Although he has no co-editor on whom to rely. and in spite of the fact that his business manager, Ed Chewning. dropped out of school. Bobby has continued his work unaided. and we may say with conhdence that to him is due the thanks for this volume. Bobby is resuming his studies at the University of Virginia next year and we know that he is going to make a fine student and will make his Alma Mater proud of him. Robert T. Scott RICHMOND.

He stepped up from last year's Scrubs to fill in this year in the backfield and win his Varsity In baseball Spes has pitched on Junior and B teams, and at this moment he is a very good prospect for an outfield position on the '38 team. In other fields of school activity Ruth has been just as successful. In addition to being on the Board of Directors of the Missionary Society and a member of the Monogram Club. he is Business Manager of RAPS AND TAPS for IQQ8. In his classes, while 'Spes is no monolith of mental might, he possesses a certain adaptability to study which has produced results in the form of good grades. And to common sense and business ability. we may add modesty as another of Ruth's good qualities. His modesty is not something put on or assumed for effect, as is sometimes the case. He is naturally modest: which is a splendid thing, Next year, Spes departs for V.M.I.. and we feel sure that his good qualities will carry him a long way there. Daniel D. Talley, III RICHMOND.

Now this youngster has become a tall, thin but still curly-haired young man. He is none other than Daniel Doak Talley, III. During his long stay at St. C., Dan's accomplishments have been many. He has stood first in his class several times, and was always an excellent student. During the past session Daniel D., as Editor of the Pine Needle, has put in many hours of hard work in order that the paper may be enjoyed by its readers. Talley has also contributed a great deal to RAPS AND TAPS for the past few years. In addition to Dan's powers as a student and a writer. he is a member of the Student Honor Committee. a Director of the Missionary Society, and a member ofthe Monogram Club. Although D. D. cannot be termed a star athlete. he has taken part and had deep interest always in all sports. Because of Dan's good nature and remarkable sense of humor, he is without doubt one of the most popular boys in school. It goes without saying that a great blow will be dealt to St. Christopher's when Dan leaves next year and continues his fine work at the University of Virginia. Come back to see us next year, Dan.

If you should see a streak of gray pass you and quickly vanish in the distance-that's Staggy in his Ford V-8. But he is equally as fasl with the fair sex. He has a style all his own, and when he is not courting at the seashore, you can bet he has found himself a little gal in the mountains. Staggy is a boy of quiet nature and great modesty. At times we wish he did not possess these qualities to such a high degree. for it keeps us from knowing him as intimately as we would wish. However. he is ever cheerful and amiable. Never is he without his winning smile. whether he is in the midst of one of Mr. Bugg's geometry tests. or tripping the light fantastic at the Club with one or another of his girl friends. Although light-hearted and carefree by nature. Staggy has a more serious side, and no one possesses a higher sense of responsibility. Al- though he does not take an active part in athletics. he has always given moral support from the sidelines at all the school's major athletic events. Even though Staggy never lets any of his lessons throw him, he will admit he has had some mighty close calls. In spite of this, we all feel sure that if he overcomes the obstacles of college and life in general with the same ease and facility with which he has overcome those of prep school, a brilliant futureawaits him. .

Undecided about nt-.vl yt-ar. In Jack Todd of Dumbarton we have the typical St. Christopher's product. Jack entered our sanctuary of study three years ago: and if he had been classified according to size. he would have been pushed down to Form I. But Jack hasn't for one moment let his smallness of stature hinder him athletically. Jack has played on Midget and Junior football teams. and was a mainstay on Coach Owen's Juniors this year. Like- wise, he has been outstanding in Midget and Junior basketball. And at present. he is a very promising candidate for varsity baseball. In a class of comparatively few intellectual giants, Jack has proved himself a shining light. His work in his classes has always been above par. He has taken part in every phase of school activity. being on the Board of Directors of the Missionary Society and a member of the '38 RAPS AND TAPS Staff. Such are the diversitics of undertaking of this illustrious son of St. Christopher's. But long after Jack's records are history, his cheery smile and constant good nature will be remembered with plesaure by all with whom he has come in contact. His affability and humor have made him popular with every one in school, and we are happy to announce that Jack is considering returning next year for post-graduate work. .l7. .hx N 5 Q' X' Ts- vii XFX.

Six years ago a small boy by the name of Alex Williams entered the Second Form to serve his sentence in silent perseverance, and since then, unassuming but HOC backward, he has shoved himself into a position of prominence in the hearts of his classmates. Although Alex has never tried to push himself forward aggressively, he is one of the most likeable boys at St. Christopher's, and not only that, but he is universally re- spected for his straightforward conduct and his disinterested work for the betterment of the school. A panegyric of Alex's character might be put into volumes. but we must be content with a mere enumeration of his accomplishments. In athletics Alex has devoted most of his time to football. For the past two years he has been a hard-working varsity scrub. and had it not been for his slightness ofstature he would have seen much more action than he did. Last spring, he was a member of the track team and competed in several meets. As a student, Alex has always applied himself diligently. and for this reason he is well above average in his school work. It may be truth- fully said that he never wasted time in the dilly-dallying in which many boys seem to delight. Alex departs for V.M.I. next year. And we feel sure that he will make a place for himself there by his quiet, good-natured persistence. John E. Woodward, Jr. RICHMOND, VA.

Ladies and gentlemen, you have before you one of the charter members of the graduating class, none other than Jack Wodward. Few boys have made such a memorable impression on others as Jack. and the more one sees him the greater becomes his respect for him. Jack is a boy of many talents, taking a lively interest in everything ,whether he is in the class- room, on the athletic field. or in a bull session. Jack has concentrated his athletic abilities on basketball. While he has played football and baseball on Junior and Midget teams, he really comes into his own on the basketball court. Completing his second year on the varsity squad, Jack won his varsity C this year, playing at forward. It might be well to mention that, through Jack's efforts, some- thing in the semblance of a golf team was organized this spring. Jack has likewise been active in other fields of school activity. He is a member of the staff of RAPS AND TAPS and of the Pine Needle. And it will doubtless be remembered that Jack was among those initiated into the Monogram Club early this spring. In the classroom, while Jack has not proved himself to be the most intellectual guy that ever proved a Trig problem, he has exhibited a willingness to work which has en- abled him to make most of his classes. Next year Jack departs for the Virginia Military Institute, deciding not to follow Brother Walt to Michigan. Luck to you, Jack, and may your future initiations be easy ones. .18.

He was a bare six feet five inches tall. Some of the teachers were under the impression that a mistake had been made. and that in reality this long drink of water belonged in a higher grade. Time, however. showed he did not. And while Bones did not turn out to be an intellectual wizard. he has shown an adaptability in his classes which has enabled him to make his work. Dick has now stretched out to six feet five and a quarter inches, but on the athletic lield he has used his height to great advantage. This year completes his third on the varsity baseball squad, during which time he has been relief hurler number one. Who can forget his I8-o shutout of McGuire's last year? Likewise, Dick's height has aided him in basketball, although not to the advantage that it has in baseball. Due to lack of poundage necessary for football, Dick limited his athletic activities to basketball and baseball. Bones has served his term at the County Jail, and in the three years he has been with us, he has shown that he has the stuff in him. Next year he will attend the University of Virginia, and we know that he will live up to the record that has been established there by St. Christo- pher's boys. Good-bye. Dick, and good luck. We hate to lose you, but whenever you come down to Richmond. drop in and see some of your old pals who are still serving time. We'll be mighty glad to sec you. E.

Out of the dark and mysterious hills which surround Clifton Forgef Virginia. there came to us a man: yea. as he proved. a leader. When we first hear Ewell's name mentioned. we invariably think of him as a fullback. For it was on the gridiron that Potty really came into his own. During the past two seasons Ewell had all the dirty work, so to speak, assigned to him, On the offense he played blocking back. while on the defense he backed up the line. And in this light he proved himself a true leader. Potty knew when to console the team with words of praise. or set on fire its lighting spirit with words of derision. It will be many a day before St. Christopher's has another fullback like Ewell. But football is not the only held of endeavor Ewell has entered at St. Christopher's. He partook actively in the work of the Literary So- cieties, being elected Secretary of the Jacksons this year. In addition he is an oflicer of the Missionary Society, President of the Monogram Club, and a member of the Student Honor Committee. Besides his football prowess. Ewell has scrubbed in basketball, baseball. and track. In the classroom and around the school a more pleasing and popular personality than Ewell's couldn't be found. It is with no little reluct- ance that we give up Potty to V.M.I. next year. But our loss is the Institute's gain. .19. A' - f ., rf, Q X A g ,F 1 offw: Q.-5 h . P. .LN N -1.

Introducing the small town boy who came to the big city and made good in a big way: Billy Fox. He is the type of boy we all like to be associated with. Many of us can do a few things well, but lucky is .he indeed who can do everything well. And Billy is certainly in this latter ichlassffor in everything in which he has participated he has invariably been successful. Pete is probably the most natural athlete in St. Christopher's., At present he is the only four-letter man in school, having won his ,varsity C in the four major sports. As a forward in basketball and a weight man in track, he is outstanding: but it is in football and baseball that he really comes into his own. Climaxing his second year of varsity foot- ball, he was voted the best blocking back in Richmond. Last spring Billy was elected captain of baseball for the '38 season. But Billy's school activities are not restricted to the athletic field. He has been active in the Literary meetings during his two years in school, being elected Vice-President of the Lees this year. In addition. he is Vice-President of the Monogram Club, and on the Board of Directors of the Missionary Society. We could continue and list Billy's various accomplishments in the ofiices he has held. but opposuit nalura. So we must say farewell to the pride of Ashland. And although we are not positive what college will enroll this auspicious youth, we do know that his will be a diflicult vacancy to fill next year. So wherever it may bc. here's luck to you.

Because of his never-failing good humor and cheerfulness. he has become one of the most popular boys in St. Christopher's. and because of his willingness to help with anything, he has won the respect of all his teachers. Not only is Wilson a good boy. but also a good athlete. For the past two years he has been a mainstay in the forward wall of the Red and Gray football team, playing a brilliant game at end. The championship success of the team this past season was due largely to his splendid work as a fianker. Not only did he win two monograms in this sport, but also one in track. As a cinderman. Wilson did creditable work as a milcr, and was also largely responsible for the success of this team. Besides his athletic achievements, he is also treasurer of the Monogram Club and a director of the Missionary Society. During all his career at St. Christopher's, Wilson has been a boarder. and soon after his arrival he became a staunch upholder of its traditions. But after all these multiple honors and achievements. Wilson is still the modest, unassuming lad that we all have learned to respect and admire. When he leaves us this June. all that we of St. Christopher's can say is adieu, Wilson. andthe best of luck always. .20.

Lei- Sucit-ly: Missionary Society: Varsily Fr Handsome is as handsome does. This old saying truly applies to Slick Dabney, for his every act 'is as handsome as his smiling counte- nance. a not-too-good reproduction of which you see here. Todd is our prodigal son, having attended St. Christopher's some six years ago and then returning to spend his last year with us. He quickly picked up where he left off years ago, and the Lover has distinguished himself in every phase of school life. As a standout guard on our City Champion- ship football tcam, Todd was in his element, and he will ever remain fear to the hearts of his fellow-players and coaches by defeating our arch- rivals. McGuire's, blocking a kick behind their goal line in the hnal three minutes of play. A good student and better athlete, Todd's star shines even more brightly in that Held of endeavor known as the pursuit of happiness li.e., womenj. Who but Slick has ever had five dates in one week-end with five separate and distinct girls. That, boys and girls. is an unequalled and unparalleled record. However, we cannot blame the girls, for he was voted the most handsome boy in school, and two hundred boys can't be wrong. Todd is one of those fortunate few who are blessed with a fine dis- position. and his pleasant smile has often cheered us in moments of deepest despair. Todd goes to the University of Virginia next year. and we feel confident that the University is getting a real man who will prove him- self to be a credit to his school. . Parke F.

Will enlt-r the Virginia Military Inxliluli-. Although Parke Smith came to St. Christopher's only this year. he has been known around Westhampton and Richmond for a long time. It is rare that a boy enters St. C. and makes such an early impression upon his comrades and upon school life as he has made. Hehe was out for early fall football practice before the beginning of the school session. and before the week was out he had practically assured himself of a position on Coach Brenaman's starting eleven. Smith stuck at football throughout the season and held down the tackle assign- ment in every game in which the nrst team appeared. In baseball also, Parke has shown his worth. Although his ability at the Great National Game does not approach his football ability, he showed his willingness to work hard all season. He had the somewhat dis- agreeable job of bull-pen catcher. but he stuck at it likewise and proved to be of true worth to the team. Hehe is the life of every party he attends. His ready wit and limit- less supply of jokes make him a favorite in the recess bull sessions. He is a so-called wit wid de women, and is often seen surrounded by a group of his female admirers. But all is not play with Smith, for when he applies himself, he can really do fine work. As Treasurer of the Missionary Society he has exerted a great deal of effort for the betterment of that association. As a member of the Business Staff of this very book, he has done wonders toward canvassing for advertisements and subscriptions. Next year Parke has decided to continue the pursuit of his studies at the Virginia Military Institute, and we feel sure that he will do justice to the name of St. Christopher's there. .21. 15, Sv ,VXSX 7! ffl QW X? ff? ,CNS -' . - ' i 5., ,gens - N - ,1-Lge as lllllIIillilllilllllIlllillllilllllllllllIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllIlllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllilIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllilllllflji ia'f:i6g7?'i llllllllllllillllllllllllllll xx S ff t-Reis. e lllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIllIllllllllIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllll Peter Irving Channing Knowles, Jr. RICHMOND, VA. 1 1 years Jackson Society: Missionary Society: Flea Football, '3o: Midget!

The Post-Graduate class of '38-3E least what there is of it. Isn't it a grand collection of gentlemen and such a multitude of them! And after perusing such a long list of honors, it is quite useless for us to tell you who the possessor of these honors is. For who else but the incomparable Pick could compile such an enviable string of achievements? But the diversity of these accomplishments are such that it is well-nigh impossible to discuss them in this limited UD space. However, we can take a glimpse at the man Pick, It is a universally- accepted fact that he is one of the heaviest, if not the heaviest, lover ever to strike the environs of our fair institution. He has the knack, however, of handling his amorous affairs in such a manner that, ostensi- bly, there are very few in the know as to his true status. But Junie does not direct all his attentions towards the ladies. for we know of no boy who enjoys the company of boys more than Junie. With all his outstanding achievements, Junie is still pretty much the same playful, carefree. witty, bashful boy who entered the Lower School eleven years ago. It will be many a year before St. Christopher's raises up a boy as versatile and as popular as this illustrous son. So when Junie follows brother John to Princeton and takes with him his talents. a vacancy at St. C. never to be filled will be left behind. .22.

Some of these young men have been seen around the campus for eleven or more years, while others have tried out a like num- ber of schools and have determined that St. Christopher's is the best after all. Some of the original members have found the scholastic pace a bit too fast, and have stopped for a rest on the way, while others, very ambitious ones indeed, have left the surrounds of the Tiber to pursue their studies at institutions of higher learning. It would be a matter of repetition to mention the many activities that these gentlemen participate in. These activities have already been dwelt upon. But it is fitting to pause and commend these boys who so admirably administered the high offices which fell to them. And so to this illustrious group of gentlemen who, inci- dentaly, are responsible for the greatest athletic record St. Christopher has ever en- joyed, we wish luck and success, -23. e - fl' .,e .f' IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIlllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllIlllllIlillllllllllllllllllh illlllllllllllllllllllllllllll Front Row, left Io righl: Mathews, W.

These boys will be the leaders of our school next year, and will assume all the duties of the Senior Class. A majority of these boys have been at St. Christopher's a good long time: a select few were in the Lower School. During their years spent here, they have proved themselves pre- pared to take over the duties which fall to them next year. In school activities many of these gentlemen have excelled. They have exhib- ited themselves as promising material for next year's varsity teams when they will take their places in the starting line-ups. One member of this class is Co-Editor- in-chief of The Pine Needle: others are on staffs of both RAPS AND TAPS and The Pine Needle: while still others are responsible for the success of the Dramatic Club this year. In the classrooms all are hard workers, and we know they will shower them- selves with glory as the class of '39 at St. Christopher's. .24.

FIFTH FORM 3 The Fifth Form is unusually large, but in spite of this handicap, it is in no wise backward. In its exclusive ranks there is some promising talent which in the next two years should prove of great value to St. Christopher's. Already several of its members are becoming active in school life. Scholastically, the form is well above average, and has in it some boys of great literary ability. The Matthew Page Andrews reading prize was won by a member of this form. A few are mem- bers ofthe publicatior1's staffs, while others have taken part in the Dramatic Club plays. Athletically, these boys have starred on Junior teams, and are expected to be excellent material for the varsity teams next year. H The Sophomore Class has already shown its value in every branch of school life. More will be expected of it next year, and we feel sure it will live up to our ffXPf2Ctations. We know you can do it, Fifth Formers. See if you can't surpass what IS predicted for you! -25. .5 QF . wx f'iif?TF55: ff, r it S f ' W ' Vw Y ljzyf'5'f'fie is I - Qs- .Q ffl- p -. 1 .-, .fi'.TX41'X5 A of iff l f? mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmv'HfMf4Mmmmmmmmmmm 1 Rx Q47 . ,-N, W Front Row, left to right: A.

FOURTH FORM 8 The Fourth Form of '38 is one to which it is very diflicult to do justice. Prob- ably the best description of it is that it is a perfect cross-section of St. Christopher's. Many boys of this form have come up to us from the Lower School-but not all: some entered St. Christopher's in the First Form, Upper, While others are now with us for the first time. The Fourth Form composed the greater part of the Bulldog Football Team this year, also, it was well represented on the Midget and Junior Basketball Quintets. Fourth Formers, you have made a good beginning. You are just realizing that the future of St. Christopher's lies in your hands. We feel sure that you will be equal to your responsibilities, and I confidently believe that you can keep the future activities and athletics of the school up to the St. Christopher's standard. Finally, boys of the Fourth Form, point with pride to your school, and all that it stands for. And then, Class of '41, your school will point with pride to you, its graduates. .26.

Who WOuld think that behind their calm faces their brains have endured tortures, of Which the sufferers in the Spanish Inquisition and the Black Hole of Calcutta never even dreamed? These boys are members of the Third Form. No person who has ever P21Ssed through that form can look back on it without sickening shudders. The reasons Why it is so hard are many. In it Elementary Latin is ended and Caesar begun: Arithmetic ended and Algebra begun. But let the boys of the Third Form be of good cheer. The storm of periphrastic conjugations, semi-deponent Verbs, Percentage and minus quantities will soon blow over, and after that it will be smooth sailing. Why, next year they will have only French and English Liter- ature to contend with. So take your ease, Third Formers. While the Fourth Form IS not remarkably easy, it is a calm, gentle, sunlit sea in comparison with the raging torrent You have just been through. . .xy . 27 .

During the past year, the constructive influence of the Student Honor Com- mittee has continued to grow and become noticeable in the spirit of the student body. Through its efforts, higher standards of honor in every particular and the necessary requirements of a gentleman are being implanted in the minds of the students. The Student Honor Committee has acted more as a unit this year than ever before. It has carried out to the best of its ability the duties assigned it by the Head- master, and it has likewise exercised its privileges with discretion. When action is taken by the Council, its judgment is not necessarily final. It can be improved, moditied, or increased by the Headmaster. But in any case the Honor Committee acts as an invaluable medium between the boys and the faculty, and the two try to co-operate in every possible way, thus increasing the efficiency of both. .29.

SCOTT R. N. POLLARD, JR. Vice-Presidcnl Vice-President WILLIAM Fox E. E. BRADLEY Secretary Secretary For years in the history of St. Christopher's the two Literary Societies have held an esteemed and enduring place. In their beginning they were given the names of Lee and Jackson, and they have held the spirit inspired by their commemora- tive names. The societies are extremely broad in scope, in that they include and give oppor- tunities in literary work to every boy in school. Each society is headed by a Presi- dent, Vice-President, Secretary, and Faculty Advisor, who plan the programs, aid boys in preparing their pieces, and handle the meetings. The meetings, held on an average of twice a month, occur during the school hours and are attended by the entire student body. A number of years ago when the late Miss Virginia Stuart Bouldin was Principal of the Lower School, Junior Societies, bearing the same titles as the originals, were formed under her guidance, and many of our present skilled speakers and readers faced their first audiences there. A silver cup is presented each year at finals to the winning society, accompanied by appropriate speeches by the two Presidents. The society winning the trophy three times in succession takes permanent possession of it, and a new emblem of dispute takes its place. Although in the past the fates have awarded the cup more frequently to the Lees. the Jacksons have had their triumphs, and even at present they are leading by a few points. .3O.

DEBATOIL '- n k THE LITERARY TEAM Although St. Christopher's Literary Team did not have a meet with the Vir- ginia Episcopal School last year because of sickness at V.E.S., the Literary Teams of the two schools met in keen though friendly rivalry on March 4th of this year. There were three events: reading, public speaking, and debating. A week before the V.E.S. meet, a practice debate was held before the school, and Dan Talley and Robert Pollard were chosen to represent the school in debating, while T. N. P. Johns and Z. V. Hooker were selected as readers. John Vaughan was appointed public speaker The contest was schedule to ta e p a Lynchburg. The appointed time for the beginning of the meet found the V.E.S. assembly room full. Hooker was the first reader, rendering a selection by Mark Twain entitled The Story of the Good Little Boy. E. K. Hunt of V.E.S. followed with a selection from Tennyson's Enoch Arden. T. N. P. Johns of St. Christo- pher's and Ristine were the next readers. Johns gave a fiery rendition of How Th T tl , the Whole Tooth. Rubenstein Played. while Robert Ristine delivered e oo 7 and Nothing but the Tooth. The readers then read from sight The Heyday of the Blood. The decision of the judges was 2-1 in favor of St. Christopher's. The second event was the public speaking, in which John Vaughan lostta 2-I decision to Lawrence Blanchard of V.E.S. Vaughan chose as his subject Virginia- ' f T tu. A Storehouse of Wonders. Blanchard spoke on the subject A Mirror o omorro The final event of the evening was the debate. Pollard and Talley of St. Christopher's upheld the negative side of the question, Resolved. that the United States annul the Monroe Doctrine. In this, the deciding event of the meet, the decision of the judges was 2-1 in favor of St. Christopher's, thus giving the meet to St. Christopher's by a 2- I score. . d k l ce at the Virginia Episcopal School in -31. l X . ,O .,- .1 x llllIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllIllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllIIlllllllllllllllIIIIIIIlllllIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIllllllllllllllllllln.

Property Munagcr , Program Chairman THE PRODUCTIONS 3 HE Dramatic Club was founded in St. Christopher's by Mr. Boyce Loving and directed successfully by him for a number of years. This year, to the re- gret of the school, Mr. Loving left. His work has been taken over by Mr. Ben S. Morgan who has kept up the high reputation of the St. Kits Players. Mr. Morgan has been ably aided by Mr. Derieux who kindly consented to assume the duties of Faculty Business Manager. The first production given by the St. Kits Players this year was two one-act plays: A Night al lhe Inn. by Lord Drensany, and The Caplain of lhe Gale, by Beulah Marie Dix. These plays were merely experimental, as Mr. Morgan wanted to discover dramatic talent in the school for future plays. A Night al the Inn is the story of three merchant sailors who have stolen a ruby from the idol of a temple in India. They Hnd seclusion in an old English Inn, but are finally discovered and killed by the idol itself. Pierpont Buck, with his usual smoothness, portrayed the part of The Toff, the ring leader of the group. The common seamen were played by Tommy Johns, Clydie Locker, and Leanord Blackburn. The Captain of the Gate is a story of Irish soldiers who held the bridge of Connaught even though it cost them their lives. There was really no leading part in the play so far as lines are concerned. However, David Vaughan was the Captain, and his men were Paul Rutledge, Robert Scott, Douglas Swink, Albert Blackburn, and Jimmy Gordon. The Late Christopher Bean by Sidney Howard, given just before the Spring Holidays, was the big play of the year, and was considered by the students and friends of the school the best play ever presented by the St. Kits Players. The lead was the very hard character part of Dr. Hagget, taken by David Vaughan in an unforgettable manner. Pierpont Buck played most convincingly the part of Abby, the I-Iaggets' maid and widow of the late Christopher Bean. Douglas Swink's in- terpretation of Mrs. Hagget was a fine piece of characterization. The Hagget girls, Susie and Ada, were played by Russell Scott and Albert Blackburn respectively. Eyster and Woolfolk played the New York art chiselers, while Paul Rutledge took the part of an art critic on a New York paper. Each and every one helped to make the show a success, and we are sorry to say that we must bid farewell to some of our players this year. But we feel sure that next year will be better than ever. . 37 . Q.s X A Nixxx ,552 sf? . .... ffflizif -QS . Q SJ' -x1yZfl.5f ..fvfffJfFf7IW x .KA ,ll V ' f 'xv' JZ! K7 Illlll ' .A -- - X .

VJILLIAMS Perhaps no organization of St. Christopher's is more worthy of comment than the Missionary ociety. Its aim is to do good for others, and its efficiency in accomplishing this end have caused it to rise to greater heights than any other school organizations have attained. The Missionary Society derives its funds for charity from two main sources' dues paid b - c Y each boy in the Society, and half of the net proceeds ofthe Dramatic Club's productions. Practically ev b ' S . C ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ery oy in t hristopher s Joined the Society this year. and his 331.50 dues were greatly appre- ciated. The contribution handed over to the Society from the Dramatic Club rod ' p uction greatly augmented the treasury, and we are confident that this money will be put to good use The devotional meetings. which are held one Sunday night in each month are w ll d d . e atten e by the boys, and have attracted much outside interest. Such prominent speakers h1ve been on hand this year for these meetings as Dr. R. Cary Montague Reverend G MacLaren Br don d M . . y , an r. George P. Mayo, who have interested the boys in the work they represent. Financially and spirit- ually, the Society has enjoyed a most successful year. . 40 . lllllllIIIIllIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIlllllllllllIIIIIIIIllIIIIIlllIIIIIlIllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIU HLIEITIC VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTITUTE Here pictured is famous Jackson Arch on the campus of Virginia Military Institute at Lexington.

BRENAMAN Director of Athletics NCE again, we pay tribute to the man who has been directly responsi- ble for the success of athletic teams at St. Christopher's for the past fifteen years. So much has been said of Coach and the records his Red and Ciray teams have established that it is needless for us to review them now. We all know what wonders he has accomplished, and what greater things he is going to accomplish. But do we always realize how fortunate we are in having a man of Coach Brena- man's calibre at the head of our Ath- letic Department, and where we would be without him? We must hold these thoughts in mind in looking to the fu- ture. This year we have enjoyed the greatest year in athletics in the school's history. We hope for an even greater next year, but we are bound to have ups and downs. However, we know that the high standard of athletics maintained at St. Christopher's during the past seasons will remain on this lofty plane as long as Coach Brenaman is with us. kt, beg, C 41 S f Y . . x A - .

Head Coach llrerraman ' 1 I .mme I l .i - Whitehead returns pun! 30 yards in John Marshall game RESUME' E DO not need to elaborate on the various merits and defects of the 1937 Team. The record shows them. It is fitting, however, to discuss the past season from a sentimental standpoint. The 1937 Team will go down in our foot- ball history as a milestone both because it is the last team that will ever represent St. Christopher's in the City Football Championship Series, and because it won that championship in its last year of competition in the series. In the past we have put great emphasis on the city title. We have always pointed for John Marshall and Thomas Jefferson. Invariably, they have constituted our hardest foes. Yet, having defeated the best that Richmond has to offer, it is with a feeling of satisfac- tion that we turn next year to a new field of opposition-preparatory schools in and out of the state-which will bring greater prestige to the school, and which will be more beneficient in every way in years to come. ST. CI-xR1sToPHER's , I3 WOODBERRY .-.o On the 2nd day of October, the Saints opened their football campaign at Orange with a I3-o triumph over Woodberry Forest. During the entire first half, repeated fumbles by the home team kept it backed up against its own goal line. Five times the Saints penetrated deep into Orange territory. Three thrusts were thwarted within the five-yard line, while two resulted in scores. The first score came on a fake line-buck by Fox and a lateral to Whitehead, who crossed the goal line standing up. Fox plunged the line late in the second quarters for the other six-pointer. Woodberry, playing offensive football in the second half, missed its best scor- ing opportunity when Wiltshire dropped a pass in the end zone from Covington. ST. CHR1sToPHER's ..., 7 BENEDICTINE.--.o On October 8th St. Christopher's extended its string of victories over Benedic- tine to ten. Although the Saints did not exhibit the brand of football they later -46.

Moore replaced Bradley at fullback for the Saints as the second quarter began, and on the first play he made it a first down on the Irish 19-yard line. On a week- side play Fox carried the ball to the ten. Knowles picked up five yards through the middle, and on the next play, Moore went across for the score. He also plunged for the extra point. During the remainder of the first half the Cadets filled the air with passes in a vain attempt to score. The second half likewise found the Cadets trying to score through the air. How- ever, the kicking of Knowles and the stout Saint forward wall kept the Red and Gray out of danger until the game ended with the score still 7-o in favor of the Saints. ST. CHRISTOPI-1ER's --.6 Joi-IN MARSHALL -- o In a game labeled by local papers a big upset, the Saints defeated a heavier John Marshall outfit by a 6-o score. The Justices received and ran off three succes- sive first downs, carrying the ball to the zo where the Saints held for downs. Fol- lowing an exchange of punts, one of which Whitehead returned 30 yards, Brad- ley, Knowles, and Fox combined to put the ball on the Justice one-yard stripe. The quarter ended at this point. On the first play of the second quarter, Bradley crossed the Justice goal line, but the Saints were off-side. The Saints were penalized five yards and forced to lose the ball on downs. Later in the quarter. Billy Chewning recovered a J. M. fumble in their territory, The Saints immediately capitalized on the break. Fox carried the ball to the 21-yard line, and Knowles carried it across in two plays. The punt-returning of Whitehead coupled with several recovered fumbles kept the Saints out of danger during the second half, and the game ended with the score 6-o in our favor. Knowles returns punt zo yards against McGuire's - 47 . 55 si, E.s+'fvf4: Q 1, 'fi .

CHRISTOPI-1ER's .... 3 3 LANDON .... o Warming up for their city championship game with Thomas Jefferson the following Friday, the Saints for the first time played hosts to Landon School. At the outset very little was known of the strength of the aggregation from Bethesda. Maryland. However, as the game progressed, the Red and Gray scored at will, and the end of the game found the Saints second-stringers in the contest. ln the first period, Funkhouser recovered a Landon fumble on their forty. Fox and Whitehead carried the ball to the six, from which point Knowles scored. The second-period score came as a result of a 63-yard drive. Whitehead scored from the six. A beautiful 4 1 -yard broken-field run by Knowles in the third quarter was good for the third touchdown. In the fourth quarter Coach Brena- man's second-stringers accounted for two more six-pointers. Both teams used their complete squads.-About three Saint teams saw action, while the visitors used twen- ty-two players. ST. C1-1R1sToPHER's ---1 2 THOMAS JEFFERSON.--.7 Playing heads-up football all the way through and capitalizing on every break, the Saints won their third city title victory in defeating a highly-favored Thomas Jefferson eleven I2-7. Throughout all of the first quarter, Knowles's long-rolling kicks kept the Jeffs well back in their own territory, and it was after one of these long kicks early in the second quarter that Fox intercepted a Teejay pass on their 42-yard line. Fox made it a first down on the thirty. Whitehead's pass to Knowles carried the ball to the two where Moore went over on the second play. The try for point was wide. Browning received Knowles's kickoff, and a few plays later, Howard took a lateral pass and raced 68 yards off tackle to score. The try for extra point was good. A few minutes later the half ended with the score 7-6 in Thomas Jef'ferson's favor. .48.

Two fourth-quarter drives by the Jelfs were thwarted, one on a recovered fumble, the other one on a holding penalty. ST. CHRISTOPHERJS .... zo ST. ALBAN's---..o On the 5th of November, the team took the road to St. Alban's, where they overcame the home team 20-o in a listless contest. Throughout the first half, the Saints continually penetrated deep into St. Alban territory, being able to convert only one thrust into a score by Knowles, who went over from the six. As the second half began, the Red and Grey began to apply the pressure. sustained third-quarter drive coupled with Anderson's 50-yard gallop resulted in a score. The try for point was low. Another drive in the fourth quarter by the second-stringers was converted into a score when Knowles was rushed in to carry the ball over. The conversion was good and the game ended with the score 20-o in the Saints' favor. ST. CHRISTOPI-1ER's ..., 2 McGUIRE's ,... o Playing to an Armistice Day crowd of 1,500 persons, the Saints won for the sixth time the city championship with a 2-o win over McGuire's. The Red and Grey seemed to be unable to get started until the third quarter, when a blocked McGuire kick afforded a safety and the margin of victory. The first quarter found the Macks continually knocking at the touchdown gate. Likewise in the second quarter. Once they penetrated to the three-yard line where the Red and Grey line held. The kicking of Knowles managed to keep the Saints out of hot water. During the third quarter, neither team was able to make headway, and a kick- ing duel ensued between Knowles and Tripp. As the fourth quarter opened, the Saints finally got under way. With the spread formation working, the ball was advanced to the Mack 1-yard, where the opponents stiffened and held the Saints for downs. The ball went over, and Hamilton dropped back to kick out of danger. But Todd Dabney broke through into the Mack secondary and blocked the kick. Hamilton quickly fell on the ball, thus netting the safety which won the ball game for the Saints. A ST. CHRIsToPHER's .... o VIRGINIA EPISCOPAL SCHOOL--..-7 With the Richmond city football championship for 1937 securely tucked under their belts, the Saints journeyed to Lynchburg to encounter V.E.S. But the hard-fighting St. Christopher team, whose brand of football had been steadily declining since the Thomas Jefferson game, met their Waterloo. The Red and Grey muffed two scoring opportunities in the first quarter when they got within the V.E.S. 15-yard line twice as a result of blocked kicks. Each time the Saint offence bogged down. There were no more scoring threats by either team until the third quarter. Whitehead, on his own 26-yard line, misjudged a high V.E.S. kick. The ball struck his foot and was recovered by the opponents. Two plays later Crudup carried the ball on a cut-back play twenty-six yards for a touchdown. Again, the Bishops of V.E.S. had jinxed the Saints. In 1930 St. Christopher's met V.E.S. at the City Stadium. The Saints had eight successive victories to their credit, holding their opponents scoreless. St. Christopher's was defeated 7-o.

X13 FOOTBALL LETTERMEN 88 CAPTAIN KNOWLES--Quarterback Completing his third year as Red and Gray quarter- back, Junie truly hit his peak this season. In addition to being a cagey held general. Junie was a triple threat back, and when Velocity Knowles cut loose and broke into the open, it seemed as if a college man were running, so well did he follow his interference. For the past five years Saint football teams have been quarter- backed by a Knowles, and next year a replacement for Pick will be hard to find. BRADLEY-Fullback This year Potty was the workhorse of the team. doing most of the work and getting little of the credit. A ballplayer's ballplayerf' he tirelessly backed up the line on defense, doing the greater part of the blocking on the offense. However, when those last few yards were needed, Potty just hitchd up his pants and went through. In praise of a fullback we need say nothing more. FOX-Halfback Quick-tempered and liery, Pete was in the middle of every play. A versatile triple-threat on the offense, he was even better on defense. For the second straight year Billy backed up the line with Bradley. and the fine de- fensive record of our team during the past season- scored on only twice, both by long runs-was largely due to his excellent backing up of the line. WHITEHEAU-Halfback The spearhead of our offense, Bill reached the heights as a sure, nimble safety man. Who will ever forget his average of almost 30 yards for every runback of punts in the John Marshall game? Also. who can ever for- get his beautiful passing in all the games, especially the Thomas Jefferson game? I-lere's luck wherever you go, Bill! MOORE-Halfback The hardest-driving back on the team, Cabell showed possibilities which should carry him to even greater heights next year. Although slowed up by minor in- juries throughout the season, he gave his all in every game and deserves much hard-earned credit for his line all-around play. .50. lllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIllIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIllIlllllllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllIlllllllllllllllllllIlllll SPESSARD-F ul I back Last fall Spes was the hardest-working player on the squad. Although not a threat in the backfield, Spes was in heaven throwing a body block or backing up the line. However, he proved that he could show his heels to his opponents when he ran wild in the Landon game. But best of all. Spes never gave up. CHRISTIAN--C enter To quote Coach Brenaman. Andy was the best football player on the team and the outstanding center in the state. Such praise coming from a coach as con- servative as Coach Brenaman is indeed high praise but Andy well deserves it. A hard-charging, clear-thinking, accurate-passing pivot man, Andy was the hub around which our smooth-working football machine revolved. DABNEY-Guard It was stocky Todd Babney of the Saints who tore h t rough the McGuire line with less than two minutes to play to block a punt and give the Saints their mar- . f . .. gm o victory. This quotation from the Times-Dis- patch describes the height of Todd's career as star guard f o our 1937 aggregation. Rough. aggressive, and able in the pinch, he always came through. VAUGHAN--Guard Rarely does a young athlete ending a season ' . in a sudden burst of glory, fulhll his promise consistently the following year. But John did A fast runnin d . g guar . John was mopping 'em up all year, and many of his victims picked themselves up sadder and wiser men after experiencing one of his vicious body blocks. SMITH--Tackle A newcomer this year. I-lebe filled in a tackle slot . h . . wit surprising ability. He improved with every game, and by the end of the season he was a finished player mainstay in the thin gray line. The fair-haired UD lad of our aggregation, he inspired his teammates 'by his constant optimism and hard play. - 51 - SSX QSKXQSX Agway fb, f, QNX X .f 5 ,if .Lxff N933 h .

This was a rather conservative estimate, for the Saints not only won the best part of their games, but they won at least one time over every team that they met during the course of the season. In winning sixteen out of eighteen games the Saints scored a total of 580 points to their opponents' 408, annexing the Prep Championship for the state. In short the Saints completed their best season. ST. C. .,.. 28 R.-M. B .,-,24 The Red and Gray opened their season against Randolph-Macon B on our home court. The Saints had the situation well in hand all the way through, and although the score does not indicate it, they won with little effort. Coach Lacy was able to use his whole squad. ST. C. .... 2I J W. P. S.-.--12 On January 8 St. Christopher's defeated Woodberry Forest at the Univer- sity of Richmond Prep Carnival, thus advancing one step toward the State Prep Championship. The Orange and Black went down in defeat to the tune of a 2 I- 1 2 score. The game was very sluggish, neither team being able to get adjusted to the tricky baskets. ST. C. c.,c 45 CREWE s.ss zo Coach Lacy was able to get some idea as to the abilities of his substitutes as Crewe High School was swamped on January II by a 45-20 score. The subs played all but the first quarter, with seventeen Red and Gray players seeing action throughout the contest. 35 The Saint quintet went down in defeat on January I4 to Fork Union by a 31-35 count in a thrilling, spirited game. The score was tied up 17-17 at half- time, but the sharp-shooting of lVlcElwee and Lama was too much for the Saints, and the end of the game found them trailing by four points. Chewning was high man for the Saints with ten points. ST. C. .... 31 F. U. M. A. .... ST. C. .... 29 BENEDICTINE ..,. 22 The next Week the team defeated the Cadets of Benedictine by a 29-22 score, thus breaking a winning streak which the Cadets had held over the Saints for many years. The Red and Gray were without the services of two regulars, Frank Blanton and Fox, both of whom were out on account of sickness. However, the Saints played good basketball all the way, Knowles taking high-man honors with I4 points. - 55 . O 5 TTR X- .-19:43.25 K. 3. XX Nf- SV-Q Zi. Q . N Sv P X ' .'! P XXX zpufxfjf-1' I t .

The boys from the Business Col- lege did not afford the Red and Gray quintet much opposition. Coach Lacy used his subs rather freely. Acree of the visitors was high man with a dozen points. ST.C. .... 23 R.-M. B .... IQ In a return game with Randolph-Macon B played on the Ashland court the Saints won their sixth game of the season, defeating the young Yellow Jackets 23- I 9. Billy Fox, playing before the home-town folks, was the outstanding man on the Hoor, carrying away scoring honors with eleven points. ST. C. .... 35 F. U. M. A. .... 28 On February 3 the Red and Gray avenged an early season defeat when they turned back Fork Union by 35-28. Goldman of the losers led the scorers with thirteen points. However, Christian, Knowles, and Hill for the Saints, trailed with twelve, eight, and seven points respectively. ST. C. .... 30 BENEDICTINE .... 24 Five days after the win over Fork Union, the Saints kept their city slate clean for the season by defeating Benedictine on our home court by a 30-24 score. The Cadets were out to avenge their earlier defeat at the hands of the Saints, but could avail nothing against the superior playing of the Red and Gray quintet. ST. C. .... 29 GlLMAN-...-27 In the first game of a two-day trip the Saints conquered their new rivals from Baltimore in a close game 29-27. Knowles won the game in the last twenty-five seconds with a two-pointer from mid-court. He led the scoring with nineteen points, while Brown was high for Gilman with fifteen. I ST. C. .... 26 E. H. S. .... 25 In the second game of the trip the Saints defeated Episcopal High in a thrilling extra-period game 26-25. The Saints, after trailing their hosts for the best part of the afternoon, won the game on Hill's two-pointer in the extra period, the score being 20-20 at the end of the fourth quarter. ST. C. .... 27 HARGRAVE .... 25 In another thrilling extra-period contest the St. Christopher's quintet defeated Hargrave on our home court by a 27-25 count. The Saints were masters of the situation until the last quarter, when the Chatham boys put on a rally which brought the score to 23-23 at the end of the fourth quarter. However, two field goals in the last few seconds of the extra period by Frank Blanton netted the margin of victory for the Saints. .56.

The game was closely contested during the first half, but at the beginning of the third period the Saints began to pull away from the visitors, and continued to score at will until the game ended. ST. C. .,.. 33 PETERSBURG-,..-23 Petersburg's Crimson Wave was the only Class A high school on the Saints' schedule. The Saints turned back the Wave with little or no trouble. Hill of the Red and Gray was the individual star of the game, scoring thirteen points for high man honors and holding Marshall, star center of the visitors, to four markers. ST. C. .... 30 W. F. S. .... 33 The ten-game winning streak of the varsity quint was abruptly broken at Woodberry when the Saints were set down by the Tigers. The game was hard- fought from start to finish, with the Red and Gray showing dire need of height due to the loss of center Bill Chewning. Joyner and Wiltshire played good games for the home team, while Fox led the scoring with thirteen points. ST. C. .... 46 F. M. S.--.-.27 The Red and Gray quint completed their season with a convincing win over Fishburne in Waynesboro. The Saints took the lead from the very beginning and were never threatened. F. M. S., failing to win a game the whole season, were no match for the strong St. Christopher's machine. Captain Christian played his best game of the year, while Knowles led the scoring with nineteen points. BASKETBALL MEN 3 I-IE success of the team was due in a high degree to the fine coaching of Mr. George Lacy. Mr. Lacy made his coaching debut at St. Christopher's this year. He attended the University of Richmond, receiving All-American honors in bas- ketball. We are proud to have had Mr. Lacy with us, and we sincerely hope he will be with us next year. CAPTAIN CHRISTIAN-Guard This was Andy's third year on the Varsity. He is one of the best defensive men St. Christopher's has ever produced, We could always count on Captain Christian to hold down the best of our opponents' sharp-shooters. Many has been the time that Andy has put a game on ice with one of his long shots from mid-court. .57. 1 X .. , .rx fx c Xe - .-ik A -S - -X -QQ. Q f Ng- -. it rwWQQ+.

As forward and ex-captain of Coach I..acy's lighting ive, he compiled I6O points during the course of the season. None of us will forget how he broke up the Gilman game with a long two-pointer from mid-court in the last forty-five seconds of play. FOX-Forward One of the fastest, shiftiest floormen and the deadest shot that ever played basketball for St. Christopher's, Billy could always be counted on for ten or more points per game. He missed only one game during the entire season, and this was due to illness. We'll never have another like Pete. CHEWNING-Center Coach Lacy shifted Bill from guard, where he played last season, to center. Here, he developed rapidly, and soon he became one of the mainstays of the team. Unfortunately, he had to leave school toward the end of the season, and his height was sorely missed in the last few games. BLANTON-Guard Although Frank was not a sharp-shooter de luxe, he often came through in the pinches with a spectacular shot which went for two points. We recollect the Har- grave game in which Frank scored four points in the extra period, thus winning the game for the Saints 27-25. HILL--Guard Hill was probably the hardest-working member of the squad, and for his hard work he reaped his reward. Although of no great Statute, he was put at center in the absence of Chewning purely by virtue of his fight and promise. He came through by playing circles around his tallest opponents. . ARNALL-Guard Because of his experience and his pepper, Newt was one of the most col- orful men on the team. He always kept the boys on their toes. For the most part a utility man, Newt is to be commended for some fine and patient work during the season. WOODWARD-Forward Although this was Jack's first year of Varsity work, he has played basketball ever since he entered the Upper School, and has made his letter on every squad be- low the Varsity. As the second utility man during the past season, Jack worked hard and won his monogram. D. D.

Ifor two years Billy has played brilliant ball at St. C.: first at second base. then at catcher. Besides having a peg like a cannon shot. Pete can wield a wicked willow, and always comes through with a timely hit. --Sh rtstop CHRISTIAN o Andy is a typical product of St. Christopher's baseball. Having played on all the minor teams ' school he has been a mainstay on the Varsity at shortstop for the past three seasons. The mere ks for his hitting: and as for his fielding- in . fact that he batted cleanup position this past season spea it is flawless. CAVE--Pitcher Have you ever seen a dream walking? No. we haven't. but we have seen Alex pitch baseball. Alex is the answer to a coach's prayer, being equally as proficient at the plate as he is on the mound. Alex had to bear the brunt of the pitching duties himself, and to him goes much of the credit for the success of the '38 team. KNOWLES--Third Base The incessant chatter you have heard coming from the hot corner for the past four years b oming from none other than Junie, the last of the Knowles's. To see errorless ball Junie playing ball as it should has een c the first place to look is toward third base, where you will see be played. BEVERLEY-Second Base Although a newcomes to the ranks of Varsity baseball this year, Welby stepped in and filled .1 gaping hole at second base. He batted in the lead-off position, ancl many times he proved he had ' h'n s off with a single. and coming back later in the game to drive in runs. .1 good eye by starting t 1 g .64-.

POLLARD-Right Field That bespeckled Saint out there in the outfield is none other than the Judge, as ball-hawking an outfielder as you ever saw. Although never given to extra-base hits. he usually got on thc sacks by some hook or crook, and because of his deadly batting eye. he was sacrihcer number one on the '38 nine. MOORE-Left Fzeld This was Cabell's hrst year on the Varsity, but, we are happy to say, not his last. Besides playing at his left field post, he has turned in good performances at pitcher and third base. His fielding at these positions was good. and his hitting was always up to par. HILL-Center Fzeld Here. we have another newcomer to Varsity ball, Billy Hill. Although never seeming to hurry, it was seldom indeed that a ball ever came close to getting past Billy, and his right arm is a thing that hit-stretchers beware of. His hitting was dependable through- out the season, as was evidenced by his home run in the Woodberry game hm' ARNALL-Fzrst Base Newt played a steady game of first base for the Saints this past season. and is as snappy a first sacker as ever hit St. C. Wrong Arm was one of the most consistent players on the '38 team. and was right in there playing his hardest from the first pitch h 1 . . mt 6 dst BAIRD--Pitcher A tower of power he stood : that describes Dick, our lanky moundsman from Charlottesville, as he stands on the mound facing a footlose batter. Although he never semed to exert himself on the mound, there was plenty of speed and stuff on all Dick's pitches. The batters who faced him this year will verify this statement. .IOHANN-Rzqhf Field That nonchalant individual out there behind Hrst base is Ant- eater Johann. who holds us all in suspense by making thc easy ones look hard and the hard ones look easy. Not only does he hold us in suspense in the outfield. but also at the plate. because he invariably gets himself in a hole and then raps out a single. .65. X X Q -f1,fj.y, xxivlsig., x. f we f J!

X 1 ' .ff xx . , 1 TRACK--193 8 3 HIS year's track team came under the new tutorage of Mr. Mac Owen, who came to St. Christopher's this year after a very successful year as coach at Ash- land High School. Captained by Harry Anderson, the team suffered greatly from lack of experience. A large amount of prospective material showed up, but for the most part, it was a group of green youngsters that reported for the first practice. Realizing the fact that any try at interscholastic competition would undoubt- edly end disastrously, the mentors decided that, as far as it would be possible, the team would hold no meets. Subsequently, the only real encounter which they had was at the State Meet. Here, Harry Easterly picked up the only score for St. Christopher's when he cleared 5'6 in the high jump. ' Later, the team held an informal practice meet with Woodberry which gave the team some much-needed experience in actual competition. At this meet the Red and Gray tracksters were paired with men of more or less equal abilities in their particular branches of track. With the experience that the boys have got this year, Mr. Owen expects that next year the team will be in fair enough shape to engage other schools. Outstand- ing this year have been Captain Harry Anderson in the loo and 220, Easterly in the high and broad jump, D. Vaughan in the 880, Malmo in the low hurdlers, Whitehead and Miller in the pole-vault, and Jones in the javelin. .66.

The team was greatly handicapped because of the smallness of the squad. This year the St. Christopher's aggregation was entered in the city Junior Football League. This league was composed of teams representing Boys' Home, Ginter Park, Fairmount Merchants, Thomas Jefferson, Westhampton, and St. Christopher's. The Saints landed second place in the league with a record of four wins, two defeats, and one tie. In their first game of the season, the Saints easily defeated the Fairmount Mer- chants by a I 2-o score. The following week they lost a close hard-fought decision to Westhampton, 13-6. Thomas Jefferson called off their first scheduled game and the team did not play for a week. However, in the next game the Saints, play- ing good ball, defeated Ginter Park in their closest contest of the year by 7-6. A sixty-five yard run by Sandy Carrington put the Saints in scoring position. A week later the powerful Boys' Home team defeated the Juniors 33-5. This was the only contest of the season that was not really close. Coming back in good form from the Boys' Home licking, the Red and Grey again defeated the Fairmount Merchants, this time by a score of 6-0. In the second game scheduled with Thomas Jefferson, at Thomas Jefferson, the visiting team was forced to rally to tie the contest 6-6. The following game, with Ginter Park, was the last league game that the team played. This was the hardest-fought game of the season, the Saints emerging on the long end of a 7-o score. The Junior team ended their season defeating a Wood- berry team at Woodberry by a I4-o count. The St. Christopher team scored fifty-eight points during their whole season as did their opponents. Throughout the entire season two boys, Sandy Carrington and Charles Blanton, were outstanding. Both were backs and both backed up the line. Blanton was high scorer for the season. It is impossible to sum up the effective work of the team this season without mentioning the coach, Mr. Owen. This is Mr. Owen's Hrst year in the school, but in spite of this fact, he was able to teach the boys and make them work for him, Without his hard work and interest in his team, this good record could not have possibly been made. Next year, most of this year's junior squad will be trying out for the varsity, but we feel sure that Mr. Owen will turn out just as good, if not a better team. .67.

A slightly ambitious schedule was undertaken, and the squad participated in two different leagues: one the City Midget League and the other an independent statewide organization. The season's record consited of six victories, three ties, and four de- feats. In the Independent League the title was lost to Ginter Park only after a two- game play-off. Third place was captured in the City League in competition with rather strong elevens. Injuries greatly handicapped the Bulldogs during the season and contributed in no small degree to two of the losses. Bulldog awards were made to the following by Coach Green: Captain Robert Buford, Joe Cireen, John Pearson, Howe Todd, Tommie Johns, Jim Tinsley, Al Blackburn, Tom Wil- liams, John Catlett, John Ellett, Stuart Ragland, Lawrence Mauck, Austin Dod- son, Jack Powell, and Manager Bill Kenney. 8 MIDGET BASKETBALL The '38 Midget Basketball Team enjoyed a successful season, winning five out of its eight games. The Midgets took second place in the city league for boys under sixteen years. They lost only to Council Neighborhood, the championship team, to Thomas Jefferson, and to Westhampton, whom they defeated in a former game. The Little Saints were most fortunate in having Mr. Owen as their coach. He taught that, to like as well as to play basketball, was the key to success on the court. But he laid his greatest stress on fundamentals. The Midgets opened their season by defeating teams from Benedictine and Westhampton. In a return game with Benedictine, which went to two extra pe- riods, the St. Christopher's Midgets won by a 25-23 score. When they played the championship team of Council Neighborhood, the Midgets lost to a good but not superior team by a 33-32 score. The defeat administered by Wcsthampton was quite an upset to the Little Saints. For they had formerly defeated that team by ten points. The Midgets ended their season with wins over Christchurch and Fork Union. Sandy Carrington, captain of the Midget Team, was the outstanding guard. Howe Todd and Eppes did fine work at forwards, while Easterly excelled at center. .68.

Festivities commenced with the annual Monogram Club picnic at Camp Arrowhead at which Mr. Brenaman put on a one-man show: host, entertainer, wit, and chief cook and bottle-washer. The following evening, the 8th, the first dance was given in the lavishly dec- orated gymnasium. Bob Riley furnished the music for what later proved to be the most enjoyable evening of the week. Every one was feeling good Csome too goodj , although there was no rowdyism or display of disorder, extenal or internal. The second and final dance of the series was held the next night with Jelly Left- wich and his orchestra as entertainers. This collection of horn-blowers did not live up to expectations, and this dance seemed an anti-climax to the preceding night. For two hours the next morning the school sweated and strained while thirteen perspiring seniors were declared full graduates of St. Christopher's School. One would think that here the festivities ended, but no, not for the seniors. That night, several of the more enterprising graduates and near-graduates celebrated their de- liverance in a manner worthy of the occasion. Thus ended what may be truthfully called Cin spite of this articleb the most enjoyable Finals that the students of St. Christopher's have ever participated in, and we sincerely trust that those future Seniors will leave the school with as many happy memories as the members of the class of '37 cherish in their hearts. .74.

Xi X .. 'V ACTIVITIES 3 ONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, found twenty-one new boys on hand to be en- rolled in their proper forms in the Lower School. Seven of these boys entered the Primer Form, making it the best St. Christopher's has ever had. I-Iere's hoping they will be seven leading graduates from the Upper Schooliin 1950. Eight other new boys have entered during the year, making our total enrollment a crowded one of 84. During the second week of the term the exciting business of elections was attended to. LeBaron Goodwin, better known as Bish, was chosen leader of the Lower School, with Walter Robertson and Beverly Munford for his assist- ants. The Presidents of the Junior Lee and Jackson Literary Societies were Ralph Binswanger and Tommy Priddy, and the Secretaries Walter Robertson and Edmund Talley. The Junior Missionary Society elected Landon Trigg President and Archer Jones Secretary. Later in the year when the worth of the members had been tried in several meetings, Jackson Howard and Ben Duffy were named Presidents of their respective Literary Societies. The Red Cross drive, led by Mr. Green of the Upper School, raised over fifty dollars. The Christmas Pageant was The Holy Night. a masque, with words and music adopted from old French Christmas songs. On the stage were Archer Jones as Joseph: Charlie Valentine as Mary: Reeman McNamara. John Munford, and Herman Allyn as the Three Shepherds: and David Wilson, Landon Cabell, Wal- ter Robertson, B. B. Munford, Beverly Mauck, and George Wayne Anderson as angels. These boys formed effective tableaux to the music of the choir, trained by Miss Cowles and composed of Ben Duffy, LeBaron Goodwin, Tommy Priddy, Edward Wright, Bill DesPortes, Alexander Wellford, Van Donohue, Jack How- ard, Evans Johnson, and Bill Rixey. The gymnasium was decorated with holly and pine, and the stage was set and lighted simply but very impressively by Mrs. Derieux. - The work in the art room and music department continues to be the most popular form of recreation in the Lower School. In art the boys have specialized in puppets, leather, metal and bead work, and boat models. In music the Rhythm Orchestra has been added to by boys playing on the piano and violin. The classes have also spent some time studying different forms of musical composition, and the lives of great composers. Early in the spring thoughts of Commencement begin to fill the minds of everybody, not only because it marks the beginning of the holidays, but because the day itself is the memorable one of graduation and the excitement that goes with it. The speeches of Chamberlayne, Garrison, and Hobson are remembered from last year as being particularly good. Two new prizes were given last year and are being contended for this year. One is the Thomas Nelson Page prize for excellence in Composition, presented by Mrs. F. S. Johns: and the other is the Bierne Blair cup, awarded for the Best Spirit in Athletics, and given by Mrs. Robert H. Carter. . 82 . BOY COUNCIL SEB GOODWIN I.eacI'er of lhe Lower School PRIDDY 'l'Al,l.l2Y BINSWANGIER BARTON OUR LEADER In the Lower School there is one honor which is by far the greatest that can be bestowed on any boy. This is the honor of being elected Leader of the School by the entire student body on a written ballot. Boys can fool adults about their true characters, but they cannot fool other boys: consequently, the one whom all the pupils choose is always a boy of the highest sense of honesty, courtesy, and fairness. The high traditions which accompany this position have been capably maintained this year by LeBaron Goodwin, the Leader for 1937-V38. I-Ie has been immeasurably assisted by the other members of the Boy Council: Binswanger. Barton, III, E. M. Talley, and J. H. Priddy, Jr. .83.

Aff l 'stef'.llIlllllllllllllllllllllllllll 5 l JUNIOR MISSIONARY SOCIETY HE Junior Missionary Society is the organization to which every boy in the Lower School belongs, and the one which is in their minds more constantly than any other. Once every week a meeting is held at which the boys make their contributions. They take real pleasure in their offering because they all know that the money goes to help some boy to get a sadly needed home and education, or for some equally worthy purpose. In addition, this year the Lower School adopted a family for Christmas Day, and provided a bountiful dinner, presents for every member, and groceries enough to last for weeks. Nothing could show better the spirit of the Missionary Society than the eagerness and enthusiasm with which these gifts were made. 8 JUNIOR LITERARY SOCIETIES N THE belief that the ability to read and speak agreeably before an audience is a fundamental part of education, the Lower School begins in the First Form to train boys in this direction. This is accomplished through the Junior Lee and Jackson Literary Societies. A meeting is held every month, and alternate meetings are open to visitors. Not a small part of the zeal of the participants in polishing their rhetoric and modulating their tones of expression, is to be attributed to the interest which is shown by the parents at the open meetings. This year the oHicers of the societies have performed their duties with earnest- ness, presided with dignity, and in every way carried on the traditions of the Junior Literary Societies. .84. lllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlIIIIIIllIIIIlIIllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII x Junior Missionary Sociely The Officers JUNIOR LITERARY SOCIETIES 1.00 Jarksrm A..

Mr. Rice helped the boys and put out teams worthy of praise. First, there was football. This year the team was captained by Binswanger. Mr. Rice's Lower School Varsity played three outside teams. They lost to Fork Union and Sauer's Garden by a few points and defeated Benedictine. The Upper School Fleas were encountered twice, with the Lower School taking one of the contests. Members of the team were Binswanger, Ashworth, Howard, and Robrtson who played in the backfield, and Allyn, Duffy, Jones, Anderson, and DesPortes who stood out in the lines. As soon as the football season was over, intramural athletics were started. Teams were chosen and percentages of wins and losses were kept. At the end of the season the teams stood about equal. ln this league there were four teams. These teams were captained by Jones, Howard, Duffy, and Ashworth. Basketball, hockey, soccer, and touch football were the games played. All four were very popular, but hockey was a little more popular than the others. During the time between games in the intramural league a horseshoe tourna- ment was taking place. When the finals were held, B. B. Munford was declared Lower School Horseshoe Pitching Champion. Baseball was the game taken up by the boys when the other sports went out of season. The boys played at every recess as well as after school. In this sport four teams were chosen. They were captained by Goodwin, Howard, Binswanger, and Robertson. The four teams were very evenly matched and the games were enjoyed by all. Since athletics have taken such a large jump in the Lower School during the past few years, St. Christopher's School is trying to provide money to build a gymnasium for the private use of the Lower School. On rainy days the small boys have no place to exercise which is large enough for all of them to use at once. A new gymnasium would be a great asset to the Lower School, and it is our sincere hope that it will soon have one. It would not be fitting to close this review of athletics in the Lower School for 1 Q37-'38 without a word of praise for Mr. Rice. Mr. Rice comes to the school every afternoon to help the boys learn the fundamentals of the various sports. Mr. Rice is popular with all the boys, and he has done a fine piece of work in directing athletics in the Lower School. We all hope that he will be back to guide Lower School athletics next year. .86.

Binswanger caught the ball and ran a long way down the field with Hill School close behind him. The next play was a center rush by Howard. Ashworth threw a long pass caught by Binswanger with a jump and a sumble sault. He managed to hold it with good control. The gain was a fairly good one, about ten yards. The line-up was: Allyn, c. Cwho was playing extra wellj , Little, r.g.: Ewart, l.g.1 Anderson, I.t.: Beverly Munford, r.e.: Jones, I.e.: Duffey. The backfield was: Ashworth, Captain Binswanger, Robert- son, and Howard. Mr. Derieux was the referee, Baird the linesman. Gong--first quarter. Water boy! P It is the second quarter and Hill School's ball. Hold that line! Hold that line! screamed the Lower School. The Hill School was running around end and the boy with the ball did not stop but threw it while he was running and it was completed. The next play was a center rush with a small loss. It's the Saints' ball now and the team wants a touchdown badly. We want a touchdown! I We want a touchdown! Come on, team! A long end run was then made by Ashworth. He must have wanted a touch- down, too. Binswanger was slightly injured, but did not have to go off the field. The game was a good struggle and was very exciting to the end. The final score was o-o. Lower School Defeated by Sauer's Garden 6 to 0 A team from Sauer's Garden coached by Mr.-iPearson played the Lower School on November IO at 3 :3o. Sauer's Garden kicked off. After several plays the Lower School was forced to kick. After a period of fairly even playing the quarter ended with the score o-o. The beginning ofthe second quarter found the ball on our own 20-yard line in their possession. They ran the ball to the ten for a first down. The Lower School boys held them for three downs, but the fourth was a center rush and a touchdown for Sauer's Garden. The third quarter started and Allyn centered the ball to Ashworth. He handed it to Binswanger. Binswanger started to run around end but reversed it to Duffey, who made at least twenty yards. This was the best timed and most successful play of the game. The ball then see-sawed back and forth, and the game ended with the score 6-o in their favor. The referee was Mr. Morgan: head linesman, Dick Baird: his assistants, Trigg and Bounds. -RALPH BINSWANGER, Form V. .87. NX Ex ' X xi frrg S ai? Xixw ' A 2.3 NDS? if 1 .. l r. K.

Next term, when autumn winds blow out the summer, And boys come back from camp, and leaves are burned, When school begins-why, I'll be somewhere else.
