McCain ' Mr. Walter T. 9 Dads Club HE Class of 1959, as does the rest of the Corps of Cadets, salutes M7 the Dads' Club of St. John's for their always present help and moral assistance to our many projects here at the old school. Qniizfi' We are particularly grateful this year for their wonderful contribution to our facilities b their gift of the new Recreation Y Building. Words fail us when we attempt' to express ourselves about how great the need for this wonderful building has been. We no longer have to be ashamed of showing our visitors our can- teen, o-ur visiting rifle teams - our beautiful range, nor do we have to apologize for a place to entertain our lady friends at the dances, etc. Consequently, we were very happy to have had our Class Stone Exercises on the lawn of this beautiful building and to contribute to its beauty through our Class gift to the School by providing the land- scaping for -our new Recreation Building which you so generously gave us. Aside from the many material things our Dads' Club has seen fit to give us down through the years, we of the Class of 1959 have always been conscious of your moral support and unselfish friendship. This, we believe, has contributed much to the success of each of us individu- ally, as well as, to the success of our great school of which we, as cadets, are very proud. We also want to welcome the new slate of Officers for the coming year, Club officers who this year through their personal efforts have done so much to make our new building a reality, Mr. Arthur C. McCain, Presi- dent, Mr. Walter T. Griffith, Vice-Pres., and Chairman of Building Com- mittee, Mr. Joseph Rapp, Secretary, and Mr. Henry Hyman, Treas., to- gether with the hard-working Board of Directors who took much of their time to raise money for this fine project. We also want to welcome the new slate of Officers for the coming year, Mr. Richard H. Miller, President, Mr. Joseph Rapp, Vice-President, Mr. Stephen W. Cottle, Secretary, and Mr. Mathew J. Alagna, Treasurer. We of the Class of 1959, as well as the rest of the Corps of Cadets, are counting on these fine gentlemen to carry on the fine traditions and precedents which have been set forth by the many dedicated men who have preceded them. C 3 The Lt. Col. Charles T. Smythe Lounge Y The seniors of Company C dedicate their lounge Left to right: Cadets Smieding, Osgood B., Evans, Rant H., Fisher G., Gilbert, Weil and Captain Cord. ' General Farrand, Mrs. Smythe, Mrs. Lerch. Guests and members of Company C : Through the generosity of the parents of Company C this fine lounge has been made possible. As a tribute to our late and respected Commandant, Col. Smythe, we Would, at this time, like to dedicate this room to his memory. It is our hopes that, in years to come, many succeeding generations of cadets will continue to enjoy this lounge - our humble tribute to a man who, in his cadet days, was also a member of Company C , In the coming years, as We add to this room, we trust that this company lounge will become a living memorial to the man to whom it is being dedicated - Lt. Col. Charles T. Smythe. The members of Company C would also, at this time, like to express their gratitude to Mrs. Smythe for her kind help and advise in planning the decoration of this lounge.

Little did we realize the significance of this oc- casion until we gathered here this evening to receive our diplom- as. We believe We have built a good foundation for our future education, because our instructors have stressed the fundamental skills of reading, writing, and speaking. In our history course We have learned to look for lessons that may be applied to character development. In math we have learned the principles of reason- ing, and in science we have been taught to understand our en- vironment. For these lessons we are grateful, not only to our in- structors, but also to you, our parents, who have made this pos- sible. We will try and put them to use and become citizens and leaders of Whom you may be proud. 48 All In Fun , The Best All Around Cadet Lieutenant Buchanan Left to right: Varellas, Buchanan, Diethert, Trader and Hendriks: NOTE: That's Ed Carey peek- ing over the top in case we forget twenty years from now.

Military Instructor Qlzqat- Sanherann Eiaih Ulu M ez-it Capt. James F. Sanderson On Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 4th, Captain James F. Sanderson of the aca- demy faculty died at the Waukesha Me- morial Hospital, following a long ill- ness. He entered the hospital on Monday, October 27th, and had remained there ever since except for a few days at home during the Christmas holidays. Captain Sanderson was born in Quin- cy, Michigan on September 10, 1911 and there completed his elementary schooling. He also graduated from the local high school. Then for two years he attended Albion College and later received his HA. degree at Western Michigan Col- lege of Education. He also did graduate work at the University of Michigan. He joined the faculty of St. ,Iohn's in September of 1942 as an instructor in English 1. ln recent years he has taught history, speech, and economics. One of his chief interests was coaching orations, and he was always one of the instructors who coached the finalists for the oratory competition at Commencement. Sandy,' served not only the winter school but the summer camp faithfully for many years. His duties as Remedial Gym instructor helped many a lad be- come a better physical specimen. His keen sense of humor, frankness, determination and zest for living will long be remembered by his associates. Many a student will recall some timely and worthwhile advice given by Sandy, that in time to come will prove invalu- able. Funeral services for Captain Sander- son were held at ten o'clock, February 5th in the Victory Memorial Chapel. Fa- ther Sidney Croft and the Reverend Dal- ton E. MacDonald conducted the ser- vices. Active pallbearers included Lt. Col. D. W. Fierke, Major H. A. Trapp, Capt. R. A. Mehlos, Capt. H. C. Gignilliat, Capt. H. J. Droegkamp and Lt. D. H. Devonald. St. Johnis extends sincere sympathy to Mrs. Sanderson, and to her two daughters, Patricia and Linda. 3511 Memory uf Q wan nf Merit lt. QDJI. Qlbarlzs TE. bmptbe May 13, 1898 - February 3, 1959 65 Not One Man's 0pinion Had this writer the pen of a Shakespeare or the tongue of Demosthenes he would still hesitate to try to tell of the fine qualities, the characteristics, the kindness and the understanding leader- ship of the late Colonel Smythe. Rather then, borrow from the hearts of Old Boys and friends the fine tributes that have been expressed in the more than two thousand letters that have come to Mrs. Smythe from all parts of the world. It is a privilege to share these excerpts with our readers. General Thomas D. White, '16, Chief of Staff, U. S. A. F. - Connie and I are shocked and grieved to learn of Chick's passing. We realize there is little we can say to ease your loss but we offer our deepest sympathy. Please call me if I may help in any way. Bob Carson, '28, Granada Hills, Calif. - There comes a time when words are all too inadequate. We will miss him deeply. Jack Carson, '28, Van Nuys, Calif. - I'm awfully sorry. Now he'll never know how much I really liked him. Fred Bud Fenske, '33, Chicago, Ill. - We share your loss and send you our heartfelt sympathy. A. W. Declerque, '08, New York, N. Y. - He was a vital part of Old St. John's for many years, and I know he will be greatly missed around the campus. Roland R. Postel, '29, Detroit, Mich. -- He has made his mark on St. John's history and will always be a part of its tradition. Bob Travis, '15, New York, N. Y. - Just received word today regarding Chick because I am in the hospital for a check-up. My deepest sympathy. Dr. Burr B. Butler, '47, Teaneck, N. J. - I was shocked and deeply grieved to hear that Col. Smythe had passed away. You know of my admiration and affection for the Colonel. He was one of the finest men I have ever known. My thoughts and sympathy are with you. I know the coming days will not be easy and will take the courage of a Charles Smythe himself. Henry Tews, '53, Milwaukee, Wis. - Am deeply grieved to hear of your great loss. Shall always remember him as a wonderful man.' . Terry Knueppel, '54, Chicago, Ill. - I send the most sincere condolences expressing the sadness which my fam- ily and I share with you in your tragic loss. Albert P. Eckhardt, '43, and Robert C. Eckhardt, '50, Chicago, Ill. - We share your sorrow. Your loss is also ours. To know your husband was a great privilege and pleasure. Leo Manta, '54, Frank Manta, '55, and Stephen Manta, '57 - Our hearts are with you in love and sympathy. May your happy memories of the past bring you a measure of comfort and peace. Robert Nathans, '22, Hartdale, N. Y. - My sincere sympathies to the family and the school on the passing of Chick. Albert G. Ruben, '16, Los Angeles, Calif. - I just can't begin to tell you how sorry I am to hear of the sudden death of Chick. Please accept my heart- felt sympathy. Thomas Lowerre, '09, Delafield, Wis. - The passing of the Colonel came as a great shock to me. My personal as- sociation as well as that through the Post Office Dept. always found Col. Smythe to be so understanding and co- operative. Robert C. Ault, '57, Des Moines, Ia.. - During my association with Col. Smythe over the four years I attended St. John's I developed the highest re- gard for his wonderful qualities. The experience and knowledge I gained from him has been invaluable to me. I can fully understand how deeply you must feel his loss. John D. Stebbins, '31, Chicago, Ill. - Please accept my deepest sympathies. I remember with pleasure my acquaint- anceship with the Colonel while attend- ing St. John's. Robert F. Marty, '24, Monroe, Wis. - Helen and I send you our love and only wish that we could do more to be helpful at this sad time. You know when you were a bride, it was unani- mous among the Corps that Chick was really lucky to have you and now look- ing baick over all the intervening years, I can safely say he deserved you. Atty. Joe Taussig, '22, Chicago, Ill. - Since I'm hospitalized, I shall not be with you for the so-called last rites , except in spirit. For Chick and the H. M. are with me constantly. Their train- ing, the principles which they helped instill in me have, I know, not only be- come a conscious but an unconscious guide in my daily life. Please convey my feelings to Betty. I know they loved each other dearly. You both can be grateful for the love you received from and bestowed upon Chick in his lifetime. Though gone, he lives on, not only by his works, but in all of your hearts. Bob Singer, '30, Chicago, Ill. - I was deeply shocked at the news of Chick's passing. Sadly and sincerely, I offer you my eepest sympathy. Atty. James J. Cusack, Jr., '23, Chi- cage, Ill. - I remember so vividly the passing of the H.M. and the grief I felt at that time because I knew his passing would be an irreparable loss to St. John's and a personal loss to me because I had learned to love him. I now am experiencing the exact same feeling. Chick was a wonderful friend and I always felt close to St. John's because of him. Life ordains that these things will happen and we, as mature people, must carry on. Maj. Herbert Trapp, '37, Delafield, Wis. - Life did not pass Charles T. Smythe by. Chick, and Chick he was to all, truly lived every second, every minute, and every hour of every day. There was always so much to do, so little time in which to do it. So much to enjoy, so much to live for, and 'Eur Chick was intent on doing just t at. Bob Hamilton, '58, Notre Daime, Ind. - He was a great man who will al- ways be remembered as the person who made men out of boys. Surely he will be rewarded by God for his good works. Merritt 1-I. Brady, '08, San Francisco, Calif. - It was quite a shock this morning to be awakened by the tele- phone, with a telegram from Bob' Marty telling of the sudden passing of Chick. As soon as I could, I got in touch with some of the Old Boys around the Bay area, and they have asked me to convey to you their sym- pathy in your bereavement. They all know Chick so well, and thought so much of him. 67 Sidney W. Snyder, '16, Los Angeles, Calif. - I'm thinking of you this af- ternoon and the sad affair you must bear. It was a great shock to hear about Chick's passing on, particularly so as we were both of the Class of 1916 and I always presumed I knew Chick a little better than the other Old Boys. Your loss was also a personal loss to irate and the rest of the California Old oys. Richard R. Kailing, '30, Milwaukee, Wis. - Word's fail to express my feelings in the passing of Chick. How to console you in this loss of your hus- band I do not know. All I do know is that all of us have lost a true friend. David L. Spinner, '55, Boston, Mass. - I shall certainly miss the dear Colonel, a wonderful man - just and kind. The fond memories of him will be a shining star to be my guide. Col. John L. Chesebrough, '21, Balti- more, Md. - I am shocked by the news of Chick's death. May God ease your grief. I hope you will find comfort in the knowledge that your loss is shared by all of those fortunate enough to know Chick. Stephen Buck, '57, Peoria, Ill. - Please accept my condolences in the loss of your husband. The Colonel was one of the finest men I have ever known. I don't think that I will ever meet a man as fair as he. John C. Raaen, '16, Des Plaines, Ill. - Chick's passing was a shock to us here in Chicago. His life was dedicated and his influence on St. John's pro- found. A fine man has left us. We will miss him. His was a job 'well done'. Jerry Warner, '31, Hollywood, Calif. - We are all shocked to learn that our good friend is gone. Our hearts are sad, but we know that this fine man has a woman of courage and spirit who will continue filling our thoughts with leadership. Robert I-I. Eberle. '31, New York, N. Y. - To most of the Cadets, Chick Smythe was known as a strict disciplin- arian and it was only in my senior year that I discovered what a warm human man he was. Then I began to appreciate his sense of humor. His passing will be a great loss. I know, to you, to St. John's, and to the Old Boys. William Dean Collar, '56, Chicago, Ill. - We will all miss him terribly and can never regain what he was able to give to the world and to the indi- vidual. He truly was a 'molder of men'. Michael Lawson, '22, Des Moines, Ia.. - I consider it a privlilege to have had the experience of knowing Chick and know I am joined in this attitude by many thousands of men - young men and boys. They should all be bet- ter people and citizens because of this association. I know my life was enrich- ed by it. Bill Savage, '31, Los Angeles, Cali! - I'm certain you will be getting untold numbers of letters from us guys in every corner of the world, each in his own way, trying to tell you how sorry he is this had to happen. So little can one say at a time like this. 0 W May Continued Success Attend You, ajor Reardon .... Muior Timothy P. Reardon' 1920-1959 A trip from Concord, New Hampshire, to the West Coast, begun in September of 1920 by an athletic-looking Irishman fresh out of overseas duty in France as a 1st Lieutenant with Uncle Sam's doughboys, has yet to be com- pleted! It seems that a brief stop at St. John's while en route to the much heralded California land of sunshine and opportunity was all that was necessary to change the young educator's itinerary - temporarily, at least. A one year teaching contract, offered him by the late Dr. Sidney T. Smythe, however, has developed into a continuous succession of 39 years of service as a. mathematics instructor. For this easterner with the clipped Harvard accent, it has been a tremendous experienceg for St. John's it has been a privilege and a pleasure to include him among its distinguished faculty throughout these many years. Trhat Major Timothy P. Reardon, instructor in geometry and trigonometry, will not be with the Old School when the fall term begins is, indeed, difficult to conceive. That a fixture in the matnhematics department, such as he, should not be on hand to greet the new boys and re-welcome the old boys in this own inimitable way come Sep- tember will at first be strange to comprehend.. Thirty-nine years of close association with a loyal man of his cali- bre almost rules out the possibility of his ever being disassociated with the school he'd served so faithfully over so long a span of time. But lo, Fate will have it so. Therefore, on the eve of the genial New Englander's retirement, may we take this opportunity of extending to him our congratulations . . . our thanks for a. job superbly done . . . our very best wishes for a future Wvhich we know will be richly endowed since he is so highly deservant. We shall always cherish the memory of this gentleman and scholar. In retrospect, it was Major Reardon who quoted theorems and problems Verbatim from the textbookg it was the who on Sunday mornings so conscienti- ously herded even the most reticent, tired cadets into the school bus for Mass at St. Jerome's at Oconomowocg it was Coach Tim , in red and tan athletic jacket with baseball cap slightly askew, who verbally spanked his varsity nine when caught pulling mental boners - who coddled his bespectacled, teeth-braced Midget gridders with the in- stinct of a mother - who in Gaelic twang chewed out his Midget cagers for their erratic shooting and poor' defen- sive maneuversg it was cigar-chawin' Tim who could recaptiulate better than anyone else of the Old Guard the quarter by quarter accounts of the great games the Heavies had played in the days long since gone by. MAJOR TIMOTHY P. REARDON, that we shall miss you on campus and in the classroom is already quite evidentg that we shall remember your kind deeds and friendly, warm Greetings is certain 5 that we shall love you always for what you are and what you represent is our sacred pledge to you. May He from whom all blessings flow reward you and yours infthe many days of ,joy yet to come. 68. R 5 gifw ix A 1-El A, we Q ,gy Q y 6 'qw Mfg S A gy Q Q51 iw k W Q, Wxjgf W W if 3 Q X v gf?

It is the task of this group to maintain the high standard of military excellence that has become synony- mous with St. John's. This year, for the first time, the command of this military unit was under the able direction of Lt. Col. Roland Rutte, a graduate of St. John's in the class of 1931. Everyone was glad to have him with us once again. The Tactical Staff All the members of the tactical staff are either former graduates of St. John's who have returned to their alma mater to act in an ad- ministrative capacity, or men who have spent most of their adult lives for the betterment of St. John's. It is the responsibility of this staff to maintain the high standard and esprit de corps to enforce disciplineg to keep the corps' appearance and neatness on a high echelon, and to give a helping hand and a bit of friendly ad- vice when it is needed most. This year the P.M.S. Sz T., Lt. Col. Roland Rutte, joined the staff members of this group. Another new addition but an old friend of St. John's who joins the others is Lt. Dale R. Little. The other members of the staff of which Col. Louis Rutte is the senior officer are Major Rafoth and Major Trapp. Left to right: Major Rafoth, Assistant Com- mandant, Lieutenant Colonel Rutte R., P.M.- S. 8z T., Colonel Rutte L., Commandant Right to left: Lieuten- ant Little, Assistant Commandant, M a j o r Trapp, Tactical Officer Cadet Officers Seated left to right: Hess D., Trader, Falkenrath J., Angeles, Gammon, Parker W., Diethert, Hendriks, Cord Standing left to right: Solheim, Grace, Buchanan, Olson, Karvellas, Blomquist, Howe, Mueller, Pernini, Fisher G., DiVito, Dute A., Christrnan, Corless, McKernan, Varellas, Civinelli and Griffith Cadet Staff Left to right: Angelos, Corless, Blomquist, Barbour 71 FIRST PLATOON I I I J SECOND PLATOON 5 4 3 V 5, W3 ,, Q azi' V ' :iv - W W 'l M dl .,.:,..' ----1s: E - ,Q :'-V- ' W A .

While few attain perfection, the majority keep themselves well groomed, walk with lifted heads, and maintain a good posture. They are en- couraged in their efforts by the fact that Best Set-Up medals are present- ed at the Breaking-up Banquet to those two cadets - new boy and old boy - who have been judged most outstand- ing in these respects. Choosing these two medalists from the entire corps is one of the many dut- ies of the military department. Thro-ughout the fall and winter they keep a watchful eye on all cadets. Just before the Christmas vacation begins, these gentlemen meet and make their final selections. This year the old cadet medal went to Cadet Captain Russell F. Diethert. Cadet Captain Hendriks and Cadet Lieutenant Christman placed second and third respectively. The new cadet medal went to Cadet Robert Hess. Ca- dets Charles Seay and Quentin Rench received second and third respectively.

Being selected as the best drilled cadet is not only a great honor for the individual, but also for the company which he represents. Since the old cadets have had more drilling experience than the new cadets, there are two sets of competitions. One for all the old boys who wish to compete, and the other for the new boys. The drills are divided into two sets: a pre- liminary and a final. The eliminations' are com- manded by the cadet officers and judged by the Military Department. From this, three old and three new cadets are chosen to drill in the final competition with first, second, or third place as their goals. The results are announced and the awards are presented at the breaking up banquet, one to the 'best drilled old cadet' and one to the 'best drilled new cadet'. Platoon Competitions lst Platoon of C Company The thought crack platoon was in the mind of every cadet on February 16th, 17th, and 18th. This year the preliminary competitions for the Platoon Cup, which is awarded annually to the best drilled platoon, were on February 16th and 17th with seven platoons drilling each day. At the end of the second day of prelirninaries the top seven platoons were chosen to drill in the finals. C and EV Companies each placed both of its platoons in the finals. HB , F , and G were the other companies represented in the finals. The day of the finals, February 18th, was strenuously prepared for by everyone drilling. After each platoon had drilled, the corps anxi- ously awaited the decision of the judges. When the decision finally came it was announced that the first platoon of CH Company, Lt. Fisher commanding, had captured the coveted trophy, thus making CH Company the winner of this trophy seven out of the twelve years it has been awarded. The second and third place win- ners, respectively, were the first platoon of B Company, Lt. Dute commanding, and the first platoon of G Company, commanded by Lt. Olsen. Company B winner of the Ivanhoe Cup The Ivanhoe Cup Competition Again this year, as has been the tradition for many years, the Ivanhoe Commandery of Mil- waukee presented to the best-drilled company of the battalion a silver cup engraved with the name of the company and the date. This year Company B , with Captain I-Iendriks in com- mand, turned in the best performance and re- ceived the coveted cup. As usual this winter a series of competitions was held to determine the winning company. There were two preliminary drills in which four companies became qualified to drill in the Captain Hendriks commanding Company E final competition. In the first preliminary drill BH, C , and E companies placed and in the second, A , B , and C companies placed. Then the final competition was held and as usual was close and Well-fought, each company putting out with a little added effort. Finally, the results having been announced, it was found that BH Company had taken first place, followed by CH and E Companies in that order. The trophy was presented to B Company during one of the spring parades.

This year there were two inspectors. One was from the University of Marquette and the other was from the University of Wisconsin. The Corps, as usual, was well prepared when the inspec- tion date came. The Corps, much to their delight, did not at- tend classes but followed a rather rigorous schedule. In the morning there was a barracks inspection and then a ceremonial parade. After noon mess the Corps went to drill, which the inspectors watched. After drill the inspection was all over. That evening General Farrand congratulated us on our fine work. He said that of fifty-nine things that we had been checked on we had been marked with the highest rating on each of them. The corps was very delighted to hear this, and although we were unable to have our customary holiday on the day after the in- spection, we had it the following week. P. S. A telegram from Washington, D. C. notified us that again we were selected as an Honor School. On the left: Colonel Roland Rutte, P.M.S. Sz T. and Captain Lee, the As- sistant P.M.S. 8: T.

It was here that they held their annual banquet. They were successful in bringing back several awards. Cadet Bogda won first place in his class with a score of 194 out of a possible 200. As an aid to the team, the range, in the base- ment of the new recreation building, was com- pleted. The members found practicing much easier with the better facilities. The team was divided into two groups. The first team was last year's returning members and the top marksmen. The other team was the remaining members. The two teams together totaled about fifteen members. Master Sergeant Richard Ackley has done a marvelous job with the team during the year. His methods of practice and encouragement were most helpful to each individual. Due to the aid of M!Sgt. Ackley and the bet- ter facilities, there was more spirit. The result: A better team and a higher team score.

This spirit was evident the moment early practice started, and continued until the final minute of the closing game. Al- though the season's record was not spectacular, the team lost only one of its last five games. The squad was tri-captained by three excel- lent players, - Jim Drury, Don McKernan and Eric Christman. While the team weight aver- aged only one hundred and seventy-five pounds, it matched its heavier opponents by sheer ag- gressiveness and rugged blocking and tackling calling plays wisely and keeping the team mov- ing during dangerous situations. Quarterback Eisenberg made the most of Coach Dillon's mul- tiple offense Charley Seay, speedy halfbackg Bill Kutza, rugged tackle, and Captain Christman, star end attained all-conference honors. Eisenberg, Dru- ry, another fine halfback, and Ziggy Zik- mund, powerful center, gained all-conference honorable mention. Other aggressive players were Corky Allor, whose circus catches at end highlighted many a game, Robison and Sherwood, guards, Tony Weikel, a fine de- fensive linebacker and offensive guard. Sopho- more Johnny Borgwardt, Tim Richter and Tom Mehesan showed talent that should bring them future stardom. Post grads 'Stun Honeck and Bill Platt were hampered by ineligibility rules, but in the games they were eligible for they turned in excellent performances. Next yearls team should be a very successful outfit because most of this year's first string are returning. The only graduating members are Allor, Weikel and Drury.

The Coach found plenty of ability in Billy Amundson and Wick Ransom with which to mold the new team. Billy's smooth shooting and Wick's rebounds have spelled the doom for many teams. Although the Lancers started out the season with a couple of losses, the tide changed after Christmas. The team experienced many over- times, they had a double overtime with Culver, and usually won when the pressure was the greatest. No matter what the score, though, the team never stopped fighting until the final whistle. St. J ohn's seemed to have a knack of coming up from behind and pulling a game out of the fire . This was accomplished only by sheer de- termination and spirit. The future looks bright and shining for the squad. No one on the team is a senior, so with luck, St. John's should have a strong, winning team next year. 100 Close-ups of our Cagers Sherwood Borgwardt Sedej ACTION AND A LOT OF IT Jump shot for another two points 101 Lancer Baseball Team Seated left to right: Safka, Weil, Hess R., Massucci, O'Neill, Weikel, Dute A., Rusteberg, Johnson C., Bloom, Ham- mack, Glass, Varellas, Major Reardon, Autrey A. Standing left to right: Goldberg, Gleisner, Amundsen, Tapp, Waterstradt, Hale, Scheiner, McClure, Johnson R. S., Trader, Sherwood, Alagna This year's Lancer Baseball Team was con- siderably weakened by the graduation of many of last year's first string squad. Fortunately, however, a good group of rookies has in- creased the team's chances greatly, and the overall prospect for a winning season is ex- cellent. At catcher is veteran Slugger Al Dute. He has started for three years, now, and is a fine receiver. The team is very strong in the pitch- ing department with Amundsen, Gleisner, and Bloom as starters, and Birk and Waterstradt as reliefers. At first base is a hard-hitting soph- omore Rusty', Rusteberg. This is Rusty,s first year at St. John's, but he is doing a 104 marvelous job. Roger Glass, another first year boy, is also doing an excellent job at second base. At third is Tony Weikel, an excellent hitter and thrower. Playing shortstop is John Sherwood, who is a junior and will return next year. The boys playing outfield are Hale, John- son, C. S., Massucci, O'Neill, McClure, Water- stradt and Varellas. With the good fielding and exceptionally fine hitting, the team has displayed so far, and with a strong bench of younger players, such as Johnson R. S., Weil, Tapp, Alagna, Ham- mack and Safka, this season should prove very successful. Major Tim Reardon's ..... - ,.,,.,, f W ,A - .,., ,, , ..,,f.., M .

The 1959 St. J ohn's Hockey season was one of the best in the last ten years. Despite the vari- able weather conditions and limited schedule, the zeal of the squad was great. The Lancers ended the season with seven victories and two losses. The team this year was comprised of a core of old players plus some new potential. The squad will be losing six worthy players both on defense and high scoring: Becker, Drury, Hacking, Reith, Trader, and Weikel. Judging from the new players' performance during the past season, prospects for next year certainly look promising. Major Trapp once again coached and inspir- ed the team in their fine play throughout the season. Lieutenant Clarke, one of the newer in- structors, had charge of the Reserves. Because this team was started rather late in the season, they played but one game. The Wilmette Gold Cup Tournament, which occurred at the close of the season, was the big event for the team. A fine game of hockey was played by the Lancers throughout the tourna- ment. Winning the first game with Lake For- est, the team then played the Wilmette All- Stars - a consolidated team of five different schools. After a hard fought game with the All- Stars, the Lancers lost the tournament during the last few minutes of play with a final score of 3-1.

Although the team began prac- tice sessions late in the season, they steadily improved throughout the season. They Won their final match against Catholic Memorial High School of Waukesha, the Catholic State Champion team. Due to the enthusiasm of the Corps, wrest- ling appears to be one of the most popular spectator sports at the Academy. Lowell Weil, Barry Allen, Art Moxon and Henry Wismer were the team's big winners this year.

As a result of the daily running and calisthen- ics, the team was soon in the hardy condition which is so essential for the racing season. Bad weather, however, stubbornly kept the team inside until after spring recess. When at last the weather subsided, the team prepared the shells for Lake Nagawicka. Soon the sleek shells were gliding through the water, snap- ping to the barked orders of the coxswain. Thereafter, the high-spirited team practiced and prepared for races with a great deal of enthusiasm. None complained when the shell fought its way through the rough winds and icy waters. lnvariably, they would ask to go out again. The crew's new coach, Lt. D. G, Ziebell, ably handled and directed the team throughout the season. The coach of former years, Major E. B. Lerch, was also on hand many times to give the team a few pointers. In this sport of coordination and muscle, the team had a very good season. The Lancer Top Z eft: The start of the St. John's-Culver crew race Lower left: Sellin Top right: Osgood H.

Few lettermen returned, but the vacant places were filled by competent newcomers, men who wanted to be part of the team and to play the game . From these capable young athletes came this year's top notch squad. Under the direction of our coaches, Capt. Al- len Smith, Lt. R. L. Rogers, Major Herbert Trapp and Capt. Harold Droegkamp, We train- ed hard to polish the team to perfection. As a result of this diligent effort We won our first meet, and from this victory We Went on to greater heights during the track season. All kinds of athletes made up the team: hurl- ers, shot-putters, and distance and speed run- ners, but they all had one thing in common, their devotion to the team.

Al- though only two lettermen, Stammberger and McCain returned, fine newcomers were added. These new men were Born, Nelson, and Leh- man, all of whom displayed aggressive play on the courts. With these top players serving as a nucleus, this yearls team proved to be one of the finest tennis teams ever to play for St. J ohn's. Due to inclement weather during the early part of the tennis season, the squad was forced to practice inside the gymnasium. As the sea- son progressed the team moved outside and all practiced during much of their free time with vigor and eagerness. Lt. Brown attributes the success of the team to the emphasis of physical fitness of the whole team. The Lancers will lose but one player, McCain, and prospects for next year are cer- tainly promising.

These men withstood the constant pressure and stiff competition to which they were constantly subjected. Every cadet had the opportunity to make the team. In order to qualify he had to report his daily nine holes' score to the coach, Shorty Merrifield, then the other instructors, Col. Mc- Lure, Lt. Devonald, and Lt. Clark, analyzed his game and played a round of golf with him. As each prospective member went 'through this cycle, the instructors, with their first hand knowledge of each member were better able to select five men who would most help the team. Even though the team had a slow start this year, the coach, the instructors, and the corps are proud of their golf team. Falkenrath J.

The Kemper Club, whose color is purple, was named after Bishop Kemper, an instructor of Dr. Smythe. The DeKoven Club is named after Dr. James DeKoven, the head master of a school which formerly existed on what is now St. John's campus. The DeKoven color is cardinal. The purpose of the two athletic clubs is to DeKoven Clubs maintain intramural competition within the school. Athletic games and contests of all kinds are played between the two groups. A trophy, known as the Black Trophy is presented to the captain of the winning Club on graduation day. Just after his arrival at St. John's, each cadet is chosen a member of one club or the other. A captain and a board of directors is also elected at the beginning of each year.

They assist in all of our Chapel services and serve as an example of trustworthiness and loyalty to the rest of the corps as they are seen trudging through the snow in the pre-dawn light on their way to serve God at the altar. For the Greek Orthodox and Episcopalian ca- dets who comprise its membership, the Guild affords a great opportunity to study and under- stand their religion. By working with and aid- ing the Chaplain in delivering vesper and com- munion services, the Acolytes gain an insight into the various functions of the church. In ad- dition, they willingly assist the cadet Sacristan in maintenance and care of the altar appoint- ments. The rewards the Acolytes receive for their in- spired work are few but gratifying. The aware- ness that they are rendering their services to God, along with the recognition and respect of the corps, serves as their greatest impetus for continued duty in the Acolyte Guild. The Academy Choir A great deal of acclaim should be rendered to the cadet choir for the beauty and dignity they add to the chapel services. Their hard Work, diligent practice, and their loyalty ..... An example of their hard work was Witness- ed on Easter Sundayg an example of their dili- gent practice was witnessed on Mother's Dayg and, an example of their loyalty was witnessed on the Sunday morning of the Midwinter Week- end. This year's choir was again led by Captain Ausland with Captain Williams accompanying on the organ. Mention should also be given of Cadet Dan Schueren, for his excellent work as this year's Choir Proctor, and to Cadet J. Paulk, this year's soloist. We Had 'A BalI ' p THANK SGIVING PROM Among the many dances held at St. J ohn's, the cadets had their annual Thanksgiving Prom in the Academy's gymnasium on November 22. The 283 lasses who attended this charming af- fair were fro-m Kemper Hall, Ferry Hall, Mil- waukee Downer Seminary, Roycemore, and the Oconomowoc High School. This is the largest dance St. J ohn's has ever had. As we entered the gymnasium from the snow covered campus, we passed through the enor- mous archway which led us into the decorated dance hall. The walls were trimmed with streamers of orange and black, with turkeys displayed for a more ornate effect. The decora- tions were arranged and designed by Capt. Shake and his hard working crew of students. During intermission there were two novel attractions. The first was a demonstration on ball-room dancing, which was performed by two instructors from the Arthur Murray dance studios of Milwaukee, and the second was an exhibition by the St. Johnls Silver Rifle drill team. After the intermission there was a dance contest. The participants were the following cadets and their dates: Cadet Reith and his date from Ferry Hall, Peg Peckworthg Cadet Neilson and his date from Roycemore, Barb Fisher, and Cadet Croft and his date from Kemper Hall, Linda Dibble. Refreshments were served on the balcony from a beautifully decorated table, courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Max Eitel and the kitchen help. As the old saying goes, Behind every man there is a woman , and behind every dancer at St. John's there is also a woman. This lady has performed miracles with the social events more than once. She has worked into the wee hours of many mornings and has come across many adverse situations, which would cause the aver- age woman to resign from such strenuous re- sponsibilities as she is faced with. By now everyone knows who we are speak- ing of, Mrs. Barth Rafoth, the number one lady in social events. The Corps would like to express their sincere appreciation to Major and Mrs. Rafoth for the grand jo-b they have performed on the dances this year.

The Texas Trip Again this year, St. J ohn's sponsored a spring vacation tour. In the past, some interesting trips have been taken through the eastern states. However, for diversion, a week at a dude ranch was arranged for this year's group of travelers. About fifteen cadets went to the Mayan Dude Ranch in Bandera, Texas, under the direction of Lt. Schoenfeld. The cadets left March 14, Saturday morning, and arrived in San Antonio at 12:30 the follow- ing Sunday afternoon. They enjoyed a smor- gasbord at the Gunther Hotel. From there they proceeded to the Mayan Ranch. 4 While at the ranch the cadets enjoyed swim- ming in a large heated pool and horseback rid- ing. Some of the high lights of the stay at the ranch were a two-day pack trip into the hills and a hay ride with other groups of teenagers. Before their return trip they took a glimpse of the historic sites in the area. Here they witness- ed The Alamov, a world-wide museum on the collection of stuffed animals, and the nation- ally known San Antonio Zoo. The trip back to Wisconsin was as enjoyable as the trip down had been.

The formal dinner served in the dining room started the evening's festivities, which were then transferred to the Gym, beauti- fully decorated as an Ice Palace. The Grand March and the Arch of Steel contributed to a memorable evening as did the pinning of honorary captains and the Silver Rifle Drill Team. After the dance, cadet officers, first sergeants, and their dates enjoyed a hay- ride. On Sunday the girls were escorted to morning chapel and then to lunch in the din- ing room. The guests began to leave about three o'- clock and soon a quiet fell o-ver the campus. The Mid was over but wonderful memor- ies remained. Below: Left to right: Sergeant Shaw and Lt.

General Farrand rendered a few words of welcome to the mothers, after which a delicious chicken dinner was served. The cadets and their mothers were now once again able to eat a leisurely dinner together. The high point of the day was the ceremonial parade. In addition to the normal ceremonies a promotion order was published and medals were conferred. After this the traditional pass-in-re- View was held with mom as the reviewing officer. At 4:55 P.M. the Mothers Day Chapel was con- ducted and afterwards the Good-bys were said. - our Reviewers never Cuter MOfh6flS Day On the 10th of May the mothers of St. John's came to the academy to celebrate Mother's Day. The day started with reveillee at 7:30 A.M. This was followed at 8:00 A.M. by morning mess. From this point on the schedule was altered. Instead of the usual Sunday Morning Inspection a Police Inspection was held, after which the cadets were free to meet their mothers. The day was warm with a breeze blowing off of lake Nagawicka. The time between the P. I. and the noon dinner was spent taking pictures, looking at the campus or just talking. Captain Hess greeted the Mothers 139 ' The Breaking-Up Banquet HW Q Mr. Harry Wismer, Class of '31, Speaker of the Evening The ritual of the Boar's Head originated at Queen's College, Oxford, over 500 years ago. On December 17, 1958, this same pageant was pre- sented at St. John's. The role of Lord of the Manor was enacted by General Farrand. The revelers at his feast were the Guests, the Facul- ty, and the Cadets attending the dinner which traditionally occurs on the eve of the Christmas Holidays. The procession entered the gymnasium by the west door and circled the hall before pre- senting the Boar's Head to General Farrand. After this bit of pageantry the banquet official- ly began. At intervals during the dinner General Far- 140 rand presented medals to those cadets who had Won the Best Set Up competition and the Drill competitions. In addition, Captain Wil- liams led the group in singing Christmas Carols. After dessert, General Farrand introduced the distinguished guests, then he presented Mr, Harry Wismer, Class of 1931, the main speaker of the evening. Mr. Wismer spoke briefly anci entertainingly on sport highlights of 1958. As the Boar's Head came to an end, the St. John's Glee Club impressively sang Silent Night . The General then dismissed the corps which left early next morning for home. Action Shots From The Boar's Head Proces- Foresters or Jokesters?

At eleven-thirty in the morning the Corps took its position around the flagstaff. The Academy Band played a hymn, followed by a dedication delivered by Father Croft. The Band played America and Captain Cord plac- ed a memorial wreath on the Court of Honor in honor of those who had given their lives. An A wreath was placed for those who had given their life inspiring address was then given by Dean Fierke. A cadet firing squad then fired a salute of three volleys. Following this, a bugler sound- ed Taps and To the Colors and the flag hav- ing been at half mast, was raised to the top of the flagstaff. The final benediction was pro- nounced by Father Croft.

The Old Boys' Sons Club is a very distin- guished organization at St. John's in that it is composed of only those cadets w rs attended the school. Their scholastic achievements, athletic skills, and even the plodding hours on the guard path contribute to the pleasant hours of reminiscing shared by a father and his son. Their mutual experiences bring the two of them closer to- gether. The majority of these young men attempt to equal or break the records of their fathers made at the academy. St. John's takes pride in these cadets who put forth all their efforts to outdistance their fathers. The Academy cherishes the idea of having many cadets whose fathers are alumni of St. John's. We have undiminishing pride in our second generation and are hoping to have many more cadets in this growing organization.

Military and athletic achievements in no way decide membership. Cadets who place in the top twenty scholastic positions are separated into three groups: the Head Star , who has the highest scholastic average, the Gold Stars , the nine next highest cadets, and the Silver Stars , those who rank from eleventh to twentieth. Privileges in keeping with their attainment are granted to the members of each group. Since the club meets only once a year to have its picture taken, it has no officers or functions. Nevertheless, membership is cherished by all those who have attained it, because this club ranks in scholastic honors to only the Star and Circle Club. Star and Circle Club Membership in the Star and Circle Club is limited to cadets who have obtained the highest scholastic average in the Corps for one marking period. Each cadet who wins this honor wears a gold star encompassed by a gold circle during the next marking period. He is also allowed special privileges. For instance, he can be absent certain formations and can take one holiday during which he is excused from all duty. Competition this year has been stiff and few have attained membership. Those who have are very proud of this distinction. Although the club meets only once a year to have its picture taken and has no officers, member- ship is the goal of all cadets.

By the hard work and tireless effort of each member, the Club has remained the most decisive Club in the school. Here, also, the Cadet Officers may congre- gate and discuss the many problems which arise throughout the Corps. They may enjoy the many parties and other social gatherings which occur during the school year. Most of all they enjoy the slow, easygoing atmosphere which the Club promotes, a place where they may relax from the pressure exerted on them each day. The Cadet Officers' Club was fortunate to have the fine cooperation of each member, and the excellent leader it had this year. The mem- bers all worked as a team for the benefit of the Corps, and by means of these capable men the Corps as a whole has been bettered. The Dads' Club Left to right: Mr, McCain, Mr. Rapp, Mr. Griffith, Mr. Hyman, Mr. Cottle and Major Lerch f The Dad's Club, composed of men whose sons are either Cadets or graduates of St. J ohn's, takes a very real interest in the school and its activities. By means of monthly meet- ings, t-o which several of the St. Johnis staff are always invited, the members keep in touch with the school and its program. The clubis chief aim is to promote the wel- fare of the Corps of Cadets. In an effort to do so, the members have, for many years, giv- en unselfishly of both time and money to the task. Among their numerous projects have been a scholarship fund, a new hospital, and the magnificent recreational building which was completed and dedicated this spring. This new addition to the campus houses a canteen, where the boys may spend their leisure hours, a large hall for school dances and social func- tions, a craft shop, and an indoor rifle range. It is a 'ithing of beautyi' which will be a joy to many generations of cadets, a constant re- minder of the love and devotion of their dads. The Oeonomowoe Dance '..'

Many new faces swelled the ranks of the club - either to fly or merely be around airplanes. Under the direction of Major Herbert A. Trapp, flying club members received instruc- tion at the Waukesha County Airport, a short nine miles from the Academy grounds. Cadets not only accomplish their desire to learn to fly but also to work around an air- plane. Many are interested in the mechanical phase of aviation and serve in the capacity of a ground crewman. The Academy Flying Club Wings were awarded this year to Cadets Neely, Zagel and Bertman. Ground crew awards were presented to Cadets Cole, Borgwardt, and Flegel. The annual medal for the cadet promoting the best interests of the Flying Club was award- ed to Cadet Sgt. Mike Neely. The final meet- ing was held at the traditional banquet site, Oakton Manor, where the Flying Club yearly enjoys the dinner, swim, and entertainment hour.

S., Varellas, Captain Lee The Silver Rifle Club The Silver Rifle Club represents the elite of the Corps of Cadets, for it is composed of those who uphold the best in military bearing and St. John's traditions. Much of the club's suc- cess is due to the able and generous assistance of Capt. Lee, of the Military Department, who acted as the sponsor and advisor. The Silver Rifle Drill Team, as an integral part of the club, represents the Corps both on and off the campus. The team, commanded by Capt. Hendriks, was given the honor of drilling before the cadets and their dates at the Thanks- giving and Mid-Winter Dances. Long hours were spent in rehearsal for these exhibitions so that all might be perfect for the dates and parents. If applause and good ,comments may be used as a guide, it can easily be said that this year's team is the best seen on the campus in quite a vvhile.

Thirty-one times since last September this group of cadets has brought the news of the week at St. John's to the corps, to the parents, and to the alumni. The staff feels that it has again attained its threefold objective. This objective is to pre- sent the news in such a way that it will not only furnish a complete record for the cadets, but will inform the parents about the details which their sons sometimes forget to tell them, and will also keep the alumni in close contact with what is happening. Membership on the staff of the weekly paper is voluntary, and the members of the staff receive no academic credit for their work. They must do their writing in their free time, but because they are interested in newspaper work they arrange their individual schedules to make this possible. The Trumpeter Staff, I959 Seated on ground left to right: Hoover, Schueren, Lambert, Grace, Diethert, Mueller, Griffith Kneeling left to right: Rueckert, Thompson, Solheim, Hendriks, Spillum, Yeo, Christman Strmdmg left to right: Eitel, DeWitt, Dunham, Mackey C., Redlick, Major Rafoth Writing can be considered both a hobby and a job. To the members of this year's Trumpeter Staff, it is both. These boys put forth many hours of work to make this year's Trumpeter, the best to come off the presses to date. But, even though they knew it was a job that had to be done, they thought of it as a hobby and en- joyed it as such. The requirements to be a member of this or- ganization are simple. A cadet must have a good standing scholastically, and he must be able to accept the responsibilities that are par- allel to this job. He must enjoy writing and be able to express his ideas straightforwardly and correctly. The members of the Trumpeter Staff are all volunteers who have the time to put forth enough effort to do a good job. The 1959 Trumpeter Staff hopes that you will sincerely enjoy this year's production and gives its best regards to the graduating class - the Class of 1959! Company Ceremonies Each year on the night before the Breaking-Up Banquet , all the deserving recruits receive their S.J.'s. These pins signify their acceptance into the corps of cadets. From the time the recruits enter the school in September, they are instructed in the ways of their new military life. They endeavor to pre- serve the standards which the old boys who have gone before them have always maintained. The ceremony itself is very solemn. It is conducted by the respective company officers. Each company has its own individual way of presenting the S.J.'sg however, the meaning is the same throughout the battalion - the presentation of the pins for the new cadets' hard work during the first three months. After the ceremony has been completed and the pins have been awarded, the new boys re- ceive' the hard-earned congratu- lations from the officers, non- commissioned officers, and the old boys. This terminates the solemnity of the evening. Top left to right: Cadets Levin R. and Paulk J.

Some of you might say it has to do with how reliable a person is. You might believe it has something to do with fulfilling an obligation or carry- ing your share of a burden. In a military sense, respon- sibility would deal with duty, even at the expense of life itself if necessary. Of course it means all these things and much more, but I firmly believe that in or- der to get a true meaning of this desirable characteris- tic, there must be woven into it two factors - one of honesty and the other of trustworthiness. I say this be- cause even in the underworld of crime, responsibility is I delegated to many, and they are reliable in their posi- Cadet Charles Richard Rowland , Vazedmormn For the Eighth Grade tions. They even carry their share of any burden placed upon them, but there is lacking that thread of honesty behind their motives, that ,trustworthiness necessary to prevent them from carrying Weapons and killing each other. Today many people try to dodge responsibility by seeking shortcuts in everything from making a dollar to raising a family. It seems the trend is to get as much as possible for as little as possible. The old phrase, an honest buck, has been changed to a fast buck. The sad part of it all is the fact living today is a technical business, with our push button world, and consequently responsibility takes on a more important and necessary role. In fact, unless we are all honestly responsible for our every act, the safety of our country and the world will be at stake. By passing the buck, a process like the chain of command works backward. If we consistantly hand responsibility to others, a condition could develop where too few have too much responsibility. With responsibility goes power, and power, too greatly concentrated, can be a dangerous thing as is true in many parts of the World today. Let us frequently stop and take inventory concerning the little things we are responsible for Let us check the times we have failed to live up to an obligation honestly, whether it be in our home or business, and resolve to correct these shortcomings. Let us thank God that we live in a society where responsibility is a privilege for us to accept in our home, business, and government. 160 ..,---..-,,.- ...nr , Captain David E.

Captain David Hess Fellow classmates, only a few more hours remain before we shall say farewell to our school and to each other. With General Farrand's Dismissed , at the flagpole, Sunday noon, one phase of our life will come to an abrupt end, and another will begin. Each of us will go his separate way, choose his own path of endeavor, and strive to achieve success and happiness. If we have applied ourselves and taken advantage of the opportunities afforded us here, at St. John's, we are prepared to cope with the problems we shall be called upon to face. Every phase of school life has contributed values we shall find helpful. Social activities and life in the barracks have taught us patience and tolerance. Living so intimately with young men from all parts of the world and from all walks of life is a broadening experience that cannot fail to make us forever more considerate of the ideas and customs of others. From participation in sport- ing events we have learned the importance of fair play, and good sportsmanship. The value of these lessons was made even more evident as we experienced the pressure of responsibilities as- signed to us by the military and academic departments. While our military activities trained us primarily in the arts of defense, they also taught us to plan our work and to do each job to the best of our ability. In our classrooms we acquired fundamental skills and knowledge that will en- able us to continue, either alone or in college, our preparation for life, and last, but certainly not least in importance, the church provided us with spiritual guidance and a philosophy of life. All of these activities have, in some measure, added to our stature. They have helped us to mature and become more manly. As a result, most of us have either altered our concept of life or have completely redefined it. Our future will depend largely upon how carefully and how accurate- ly we have defined the term. In short, it will depend upon the goals we have formulated and the standard of values we have developed for ourselves. It is my hope that we have each set for ourselves goals and standards that will steady us in life's darkest moments and enable us to become successful men - men of whom our school, our teachers, and our parents may be justly proud. With that wish, fellow classmates, l say farewell and good luck. May God bless and guide us all as we go our separate ways. 165 Class Qration General Farrand, Members of the Faculty, Friends, and Fellow Classmates: Being class orator is not a very simple task. Most of you per- haps are expecting a very long elaborate speech, given by an eloquent speaker, but tonight I shall not be giving an oration in this sense. Class Stone Night is the night we have set aside to dedicate to St. J ohn's a class stone and a class tree. To the underclassmen this ceremony for their graduation probably seems far off on the horizon, but before you realize it, many of you gentlemen will be gathered here as First Classmen. Tonight is important to the class of nineteen hundred and fifty-nine for two reasons. First, We have met together on this occasion to dedicate to this Academy all our fond memories of the years We have spent Cdpfvin Charles E- Cord, Jr- at St. John's. The second reason, and most important, is that this Class Ordfvr is the final meeting of our class as an entire informal group. We have one more formal meeting, and that is our ceremonial gradu- ation on Sunday, to which we have looked forward for so long a time. A feeling of sadness comes over us in the thought that, with the exception of Sunday, this is the last meeting of the Class of 1959. Sorrow and regret are mingled with the thought of those to whom we are about to say goodbye. This school has been the source of many close associations with our fellow classmates, as well as our instructors, and our successors. True, from time to time, dif- ferences of opinion have occurred between some of us and our instructors, but - Faculty of St. John's, those incidents are now enlightening warm memories of the past. Many of us thought you were harsh with us, but now we understand that you realized our limitations and appreciated our efforts. We now understand that you were right and that, you had our best interests at heart. Gentlemen, this graduating class wishes to extend its most heartfelt thanks to you, for your wisdom, your patience, and your time in guiding our often misled footsteps. Respect and affection are yours. To the second classmen who will soon be taking our places, we wish you the best of luck. Next year you men will be the leaders of the Corps, and this year's class knows that you will prosper from our mistakes. It will be up to you to keep St. J ohn's an honor school and set the standards for the following years. To be a first classman is a responsibility, and when this responsibility is used correctly, all of you will benefit from it. Next year, second classmen, make the 75th anniversary the greatest year ever, as our class has tried to make this year. Lower classmen, you are the blood in the veins of St. John's. You are the men who make this school what it is. It is your work and your school spirit that makes a Corps of Cadets. Without your help, no platoon, no company, no battalion, and no first class could be what it is. Spirit and teamwork make a winning unit, and it is up to you to see to it that St. John's forges ahead and does not recede. And now to the parents of our class, Mothers and Fathers, I do not believe any of us can thank you enough for your contribution to our education. We have tried to measure up to your expecta- tions, but you must remember, so many times you fail to realize our aptitudes. Many times your expectations are far beyond any of our reaches. We wish to express to you our thankfulness for the sacrifices you have made in so many cases. To the future which now lies before us, we look for- ward with hope, with confidence, and with determination that your efforts for us shall not have been in vain. And now, with regret, Gentlemen of this graduating class, the time has come to bid goodbye, our brief life at St. John's has come to an end. We now shall go forward on a path that will lead to success if it is faithfully followed. So let us never forget the immortal phrase which has been ring- ing through our ears as St. John's Cadets: Carry On! 136 The Class Poet, M!Sg1. Bruce leitman Class Poem The years have swiftly slipped away, Since that most memorable day When we proudly donned our black and grey. And now, hearts heavy, courage high We've met to say our last good-bye. Dear friends, good comrades thru the years, Who've shared each others' joys and fears we see tomorrow thru our tears. Tomorrow we shall all be gone. But mem'ries, dear, shall linger on. Of joyous days at Old St. John's, Of clean clear air and shadowed lawns Of starlit nights and glorious dawns, Of the Beacon's message, Carry On And this, the dedication of our stone. The quadrangle and the open ground, The happiness that we all have found, The friendships that our hearts have bound All these dear comrades thru the years Will sting our eyes with unshed tears. Then Ah, the corps on dress parade Standing tall in the evening shade Sturdy and strong and unafraid. Boys with compassion in their eye. Men who are not afraid to die. For their Country, if the need should be Men of strength and honesty Men who are foreordained to be The building blocks of our great land Apostles of a newer band. v We shan't forget each other, friends E'en tho our association ends. Tomorrow as in friendly grasp Through tear-wet eyes our hands we clasp My memories, my thanks, my heart Go with you, as alas! we part. 7 Class Prophecy General Farrand, Honored Guests, Members of the Faculty and fellow survivors: Tonight I have been honored with the position of Class Prophet. It is, therefore, my duty to predict your futures, that is for those of you who have futures. For several weeks I have been sealed in my English IV class gazing into the crystal ball before me, debating upon the best method of achieving this goal. Instead of predicting I have chosen rather to take you forward into the year 1970 so that you may see yourselves as you will be then. All things are as they will be, except '6You Are In Theref, London - Sir James Falkenrath and his bride of two months, Lady Sharon, have separated. Jim has been indicted on two counts of breach of promise that occurred twenty-one years ago. It seems that he was not able to marry Judy, Penny, Martha, Dotty, AND Sharon. Class Prophet Racine - Dave Hess has become his father's chief rival in the grocery business. He has begun a chain of Lilliputian stores for little men. It seems that the counters have been lowered two feet so that one of our faculty officers may shop there. Tibet - From the hill country, where he has sequestered himself to escape his many disillusionments with the world, and the many unreasonable people in it, comes a new book from the pen of Elliott Angelos, the famous psychologist. It has become a rave at his old Alma Mater, and no doubt will be popular in many undergraduate groups in schools and colleges. It is called How to Find Faultf, Critics predict that it will be a best seller. East Chicago - Perry Singer has also taken up his f ather's profession, but has added a new twist to the slacks business. Perry has developed crooked Bermudas for knock-kneed people. Perry, by the way, is the best advertisement. Milwaukee - Gil Smieding has been hauling in the loot by the ton. He is the first graduate of St. John's to own a 355,000,000 building in Delafield. The reason for his great success is his ability to compose, or rather forge, love letters for the less creative cadets. Detroit - Bunky Freedland is in trouble with the Internal Revenue boys for income tax evasion. It seems that he forgot to pay the inheritance tax on his graduation gift, the upper half of Detroit. Farther along the Great St. Lawrence Seaway I have a flash of Bill Schricker floating along the river in a gon- dola, serenading the Canadian beauties with his famous guitar. New York - Ole Olson has just received the coveted Floor Walkerls Award for the most hours on his feet. It seems that he has been a member of the Macy staff since they found that he had received a similar honor at St. J ohnis. Delafield - Russ Diethert, renowned band leader, was recently hired by St. J ohnis as the Band Instructor. How- ever, Russ, plight at St. John's seems to be failing somewhat, since he lacks that probing instinct of his illustri- ous predecessor. Central High - Following in the footsteps of his well known English teacher, Bob Lambert has been holding regular classes in creative writing for the leaders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Lieutenant Buchanan Detroit - Marty Boothman has just patented a new product for the Ipana Company. It is not only striped, not only contains bourbon flavor, but also takes out the germs, teeth, and gums. Jerusalem - Bruce Leitman, Americaas newest entry to the literary world, was awarded tlie Pulitzer Prize for his nationalistic poem '4The Teen-age Soldiern, which was influenced by his conscription into the Isralian Army. Peoria - Now I sec that handsome, debonair, suave, intelligent, sophisticated, lady-killer A- BUCKY BU- CHANAN - Hmm, I wonder how that got in there? Chicago - Warren Keating Hendriks, famed movie agent, has just signed that wonder-boy, Richard Corless, who is to be the new Kookie in H77 Sunset Stripf, Mr. Hendriks made a name for himself when he married that brunette bombshell, Munny Sulkie. Hollywood - Mike Trader has finally acquired a new job. An old Mouskateer, he was given the position of Mickey himself. China g Junior Jap Varellas has finally realized his life-long ambition, that of returning to China where he is head Coolie out of Singapore. This will have to end my part of the ceremony tonight. I meant none of these anecdotes seriously, and I hope that you have taken none of them to heart. After six years at St. John7s it is really going to hurt when we depart Sunday, but my consolation is that I will be graduating with one of the best classes that St. John's has ever pro- duced. Best of luck in the future, and may God bless and be with you always. 168 C ass Dator General Farrand, Members of the Faculty, Parents, Friends and my un- suspecting classmates: It has been customary in years past for the Dator's assistants to be of extraordinary physical prowess, and in keeping with this, I have selected both Mike Bunyan Adelson and Lofty Dave Hess to assist me. Boys, please take your places. Will John In there Mueller and Russ You missed the boat on that one Burbank, please step up here. M- Boys, your relentless efforts to mas- ter the speech techniques of two of our instructors have not gone unnoticed. For tonight, you will receive your first big break in the entertainment field - John, to afford you the maximum degree of expression I have taken the liberty of renting from a nearby scientific warehouse the Peepatron. The newest thing in the way of digital computer. Here! Russ, for you, I have a compact and condensed assortment of ledgers, balance sheets and so on. What we're going to do, is to have each one of you, beginning with John, conduct a short class on your particular subject. John will discuss the Peepatron's functions and Russ, the procedure involved in finding a penny error in the books of a large corporation. Is everything well under- stood? Fine, let's begin. To, in some Way, repay your kind cooperation I have for both of you, L. P K H two fine and worthwhile prizes. Russ, a recent copy of Sinclair Grace's 'eufenqm efer awe as best-seller, How to Make a Nickel Work For You. and John, Man In Orbit by Wolfgang Falkenrath. Thanks again. Will Ed 'iCastro Nielsen, Bunky 'Tm Telling You the Truth Freedland, and Demure Darrel Rieth please come up here. Boys, I fully realize that it is not my place to judge the validity of some of your Awful tall tales. So after a great deal of deliberation I've arrived at, what appears to be the only conclusion that a group, com- prising of the three of you, must listen to each other's story and then vote amongst yourselves as to which of the three stories appears to be the most conceivable. Due to your unexpected appearance before me tonight, I can see that you might be short on material. Anticipating this, I've selected three topics upon which you're to speak. Fidel will discuss the risks he encountered running guns to Cuba, Bunky, why short men become successes in the Air Forceg and Darrel, how you survived in the Andes for six months and six days without food or water. Now re- member, at the instant I call time you will report up here with the winner. So find yourselves a spot and begin your mutual indoctrination. Would Phil Ballast Tanks Holmes report up here? It's quite improbable that attending a school the size of St. John's there would be an old sea-dog of the silent service. But before me he stands, the same man who, on the balmy spring morning of March 24, 1942, sank the Japanese buoy tender Aga Saki, which incidentally was under the command of the formidable Ming Yeo. Phil, your purpose this evening will be to acquaint our audience with some of the hazardous experiences which you encotmtered off the Bungo Straits. These unbelievable feats of sheer courage and daring could not have obtained the results they did, had it not been for your skilled crew. So it would appear to me, that the only fair thing to do, would be to ask these brave men to come up here and before you relive the old war days. Will Torpedo Thompson, Lippy Wilkin, Reflexes Hankwitz, Duffo Southard, and Periscope Zagel please come up here. What I'm wondering is whether you boys would be kind enough to execute an assimilated attack on the Aga Saki. Good. I knew you'd be sporting about it. Here are some accessories for you and your crew, Captain. I almost forgot your diving horn. Take her down - Jolly good show, chaps. And because of services rendered above and beyond the call of duty you are hereby awarded the coveted Silver Plug. Thank you. Will Perry Weikel please come up here. Believe it or not but Perry has cinched the leading role in Cecil B. DeWitt's spectacular H15 t's and Sympathy. You can probably imagine how excited I was upon re- ceiving this news, to secure still more information concerning our gold star turned star . I was surprised to learn that he has just recently cut a new record., As Time Goes By for the people at Disamount Records. I think now would be a good time for you to introduce your song to the middlewest. Fine! The orchestra I hired has apparently been detained for some unforeseen reason, so you'll have to go on without them. Thank you, Perry, and here's a little something which will distinguish you from the crowd. It seems that most teen-agers nowadays have become quite conscious about their physical fitness. This situa- tion also exists at school. To best illustrate my point, I will demonstrate two methods by which quick results may be attained. First of all, one may do what Neil Before Rott and Jeff After Marsh did. Boys, please come up here. To the eye one might asstune that you simply exchanged weight. Nevertheless, on with the demonstration. Assistants, will you please bring Bill I ran all the way home Parker in here. Bill, I can imagine how eager the audience is to learn your technique. So, will you begin whenever you are ready? Good job! I have for all of you la lifetime subscription to I-Iealth and Happiness magazine. Now that you have witnessed the first method, I will attempt the second. To do this, I will have to ask for the diligent cooperation of Fighting Fred Mailette, Hal Sleeveless Osgood, Biceps Bill Nagel, and Parry 0'Al- len. Boys, please come up here. Parry you will function as leader during our little game. Here before you is a bag of rubber' bands and an ample supply of genuine, Olympic-weight paper clips. You will assemble these backbreakers as I have here and as soon as you have completed that, Parry will begin conducting the exercises. He'll count the cadence - you'll count the repetitions. Just in case something goes wrong I've purchased a bottle of heat liniment. Thank you boys. You can keep the rubber bands. Well, let's see how our little panel is progressing. Time's up. Have you reached a conclusion? Well as far as I'm concerned you are all experts in your field. So here are three boxes of instant snow to be used at your own dis- cretion. , Classmates, in a very short time we will leave the life we knew at St. J ohn's and enter a competitive and de- manding world. So may I take this opportunity to wish you all the health and happiness life has to offer. Goodbye and good luck. 169 Honors and Awards Lieutenant James E. Sergeant First Class Christman Anthony M.
