Brown, C, Dr. Parkman, Wellington, H. Form History With the usual trite fear and trembhng, nineteen members of ' 39 were intro- duced to Saint Mark ' s School on September 23, 1933. This apprehension was in no way assuaged by the less than cordial reception accorded one of us who innocently trod on the sacred cjuadrangle that very first day. The rest of the form was greeted by Eusty, who was already a veteran of one night at St. Mark ' s, and by Triming- ham ' s ambassador of good will, who even at that early age showed signs of the mat- ter-of-factness now so prominent. Another manifestation of future characteristics was the smiling nonchalance with which Mac weathered the frying pans, belts, and paddles of the Sixth Form on a subsequent Sunday morning. Soon after we were settled, the form lost its only pair of twins via promotion and gained Boots by demotion. One bright and shining day in the spring term the form, with the exception of two slate-bound unfortunates. Boots and Eusty, adjourned to Mo ' s at Millis, where we wallowed in mud and thick cream. The only person who made second clubs in baseball was Squeeson, who spent the entire season in the top of the nearest tree. The year ended with Rubber for the first, and decidedly the last, time in six years mopping up the scholastic honors; at the other end of the scale Boots was booted. Much to the disgust of the old guard, the form was more than doubled the following fall, with the addition of twenty of the freshest new kids ever seen — by the old kids. Co-terrors for the new twenty were Dapper Dan and Useless. The old kids were chiefly amazed by the shape of that guy ' s head and the continental sophisti- cation of the three little Rosey boys, while the new kids marvelled at Peanut ' s temper, Guiseppe ' s size, and Stu ' s hank of hair. Bishop and Peeches-and-cream kept arousing the English master ' s wrath; the former by giving in answer to What did Hawthorne write, Bartlett? Hawthorne ' s works, sir, and the latter by crying liecause he couldn ' t spell. Since the year before was barren of athletic celebrations, tlie old kids and new kids alike got their first taste of a victory over Groton to the unprecedented extent of 33-6. In the winter term, measles descended on us, and Brownie, Benjy, Frick- a-dick, Leelee, and the Blimp, through some oversight, were all put together in the Alumni Dormitory. What with Dick ' s pulse varying with the color of the nurse ' s hair, Brownie ' s disappointment in the nurse ' s looks, wet Kleenex fights, and poker sessions, a most enjoyable two weeks were spent. Meanwhile, George had beaten the favored Goon in the New Kids ' Fives Tournament. While mo,st of us in the choir were struggling to get out of the off-coloratura so] rano class, Aust was singing a barber-shop tenor. And since coxing and singing didn ' t mix, Phil decided to finesse the choir to become the form ' s first letterman. Tuck appointed himself the ideal new kid, and Benjy was unanimously elected freshest. Again we lost two members. Chic and Crazy George by demotion, and gained Big Chief Eddie-Poose by promotion. The fall of ' 35 found us augmented into the largest form in the school ' s history with the addition of the following notables: the humdinger from DesMoines, Big Ach, and One-shirt Parker. Added to these were Randy and ( hubb-chubb who soon founded a complementary Brain Trust which has been working overtime ever since; Bad-dream Tess, who woke the whole of Dormitory C early one morning with a blood-curdling falsetto shriek; and Ed The Galloping Ghost Neilson. During the first term, Ned and Black Bill were the first to graduate to the Second Squad. Sunday morning slingshot fights between Dormitories C and D were finally brought to an end by fines of $1.50 per boy for only twelve windows. During a marshmallow feast in D, Jeff ' s generosity boomeranged when Mr. Fernald was un- appreciative of a wild throw which penetrated his sanctum. During the first of Twang ' s two-year siege in E, everything was quite under control, in marked con- trast to what was to come the following year. In the winter term, Aust, Eusty, and Magoon were invited to attend the Sixth Form ' s blowout in Dormitory B. Soon after, to the great consternation of Miss Hood and Miss Suess, Useless played Tarzan on the bars of the hospital ward, raising his temperature from 97° to 104°. Since we had been singularly free from epidemics tlie previous year, we were all the more shocked to learn from Dr. Parkman on Tuesday, May 19th, that an epi- demic of infantile paralysis had broken out. The school was soon disrupted, and of the nineteen who were stricken, six were from our form. Here we experienced our first tragedy when, on Wednesday, May 27th, the death of Fred Hubbell was an- nounced. He had been with us only a few months, but in that short time he had become not only one of the most popular but one of tlie most promising boys in the class. As we entered the Upper School minus Dapper Dan and plus the Cuban ( abal- lero and assumed the responsibilities which this entrance should have meant, we started off on the wrong foot by an overenthusiastic celebration of a college honors ' holiday. For in the course of the inevitable trip down town, Twang, Zeke, Goop (the three form officers) Monk, Fish, and Physical Phil made the fatal mistake of buying some cold-storage eggs. With juvenile nature taking its course, the town was soon spattered with eggs — eggs dropped, scrambled and plastered. In the some- what less juvenile course of events, the Sixth Form and Dr. Parkman took matters into their own hands and exercised their traditional punitive measures. Just as if things needed enlivening, Eusty, Ed, and Bill gave a command performance of Two Gentlemen on the Loofte in Verona in Dormitory E before a capacity audience, including Mrs. Parkman. Although the plot, which consisted of Eusty and Ed, clad in Tarzan costumes, vying for the Doctor ' s love, was most movingly portrayed, the play itself was not so powerful as to require a second performance. As a rival attraction. New Dormitory was even more progressive in offering via the loud speaker an amateur hour with such sterling stars as Yehudi and Rajeer swinging Sun of My Soul, Bing Randolph, Niles at the squeeze box, and News- caster Harder flying realistically over flood-stricken Ohio. Meanwhile, Jeer, reading under the covers, surprised Piglet and himself by practically burning up their little den of iniquity over Dormitory A. During all this, things were happening in the athletic world. Switch was stolidly upholding the honor of the form on C team; Physical Phil was on the hockey bench; Switch and Gaspipey were setting the fives circuit afire; Peeches, Sid, and Zeke were occasionally promoted to the baseball squad; and Mac, following the family tradi- tion, got his crew S.M., liy stroking the eight. Upon our return in the fall of 1937, we found that we had lost Neilson Eddie somewhere in the shuffle. Veteran Herb and Physical Phil on the team led the way in football with Moe, Klint, Brownie, and Eddie Poose also ])erforming in theGroton Game, which was dropped only after the loss of Captain Wheeler and a subsequent valiant struggle against a superior Groton eleven. Soon after, Switch was rewarded for two years of staunch service in the fast company of the first squad by being elected to the captaincy. Meanwhile, Bishop had celebrated the start of his .second consecutive year in Room T, North Corridor 3, by ceremoniously moving his map of Chicago from one wall to the other. Brain and Brawn as chapel boys combined to run the chapel al- most efficiently; the former by forcefully arguing Mr. Hardman into submission every night, and the latter by getting in some golf practice with the candle snuffer. At Christmas time, Eusty finished his St. Mark ' s career in his usual colorful style, by setting out for school at the end of the holidays and turning up in West Palm Beach two weeks later. Slug and The Ape also tried a disappearing act a few weeks later. After asking Dr. Parkman for permission to go into Boston one rainy afternoon, which was rightly refused, they calmly proceeded to go, escorting two fair companions to the cinema. The only trouble was, that Dr. Parkman happened to see their secret departure from Alton Spurr ' s and on their return cordially wel- comed them. It was about this time that one by one tlie form was initiated to the trials of Public Speaking. Everything passed off smoothly enough till Klint arose one Wed- nesday morning and delivered his immortal description of a cruise during which all they had to eat was beans ' n stuff, and sandwiches covered with fleas and sand. As a rival sleeping potion. Twang, in his best sweeping-truth manner, told us how Tammany, or how he thought Tammany, was run. Niles, Moose, the Blank, and Halibaba were among those who disappeared after supper every night to bark among the Jazz hounds, who gave a triumphant jamboree after a successful one- night stand at the Marlborough Boys ' Club Social. Meanwhile Brownie and Phil were both playing on the hockey team and after a successful season. Brownie was elected captain for next year. Leelee tried his matter- of-fact best to give himself pinkeye, to avoid some work, by massaging his eyes with toothpaste. After that in the late winter, and following no little collective bargain- ing, sixteen of the form who did not rub the Sixth Form the wrong way were in- vited to their dance. In the spring term, the tall strong-armed New York boy, Monk, and Sid played on the happy team of ' 38, which climaxed its season with a glorious 3-2 tenth-inning victory over Groton, after which Peeches was in due time rewarded be being elected captain. Meanwhile Ceiling Zero, Dix, and Hercules were churning Fort Meadow ' s waters satisfactorily enough to earn them a place on the TII and consequently their S.M ' s. At the beginning of our last year in Southboro, we were dealt an usually hard blow — the hurricane. School was conducted without light and heat for ten days much in the Brantwood style, but the student body rallied nobly to the occasion mm H B HHIr ' ' ■j l I Hk t Kf K ' B l and weathered the aftermath of the storm. In addition to so inauspicious a start, within three weeks the quadrangle privilege had been revoked, and Alfalfa had read the lesson in chapel in a bright pink shirt. During this time, liowever, the football team headed capably by the Switch, had won its first two games by large scores. However, this start was perhaps too favorable. For after numerous write-ups in various papers, the success of the team dwindled. However, rallying sharply in the Groton Game, St. Mark ' s barely missed closing the season successfully, losing 27-20. During the complete relaxation following football. Twang went into darkest mourning after reading of the marriage (to a St. George ' s man at that) of one of his former acquaintances. Our first week-end, it was reported, was terrific. Gaspipey, on the way back, was desolate because his companions restrained him from putting his fingers into the electric fan. George and his confreres made the St. Mark ' s-Groton dance a success during the Christmas holidays, but other than that, for the most part, the vacation passed by uneventfully. We all returned eagerly looking forward to the long-awaited Sixth Form Dance. Before long the form was embroiled in its first and only Civil War, but after the Mad Russian and the Dork had been pacified, the entire Fifth Form was invited and the dance was practically under way. There were a few muttcrings by some about having more fun with other people ' s people, but for most of us the week-end was a great success. In the interim, Brownie was leading the hockey team to one of its most success- ful seasons. For the first time in thirty-three years the Harvard Freshmen were beaten, and for the first time during Mr. Barber ' s tenure of office Belmont Hill was defeated. In sjjite of frequent disruptions of rehearsals by the police force and the chauf- feur, (in March 7th, the St. jNIark ' s Dramatic Club, staring Chubli-ehubb, Bill and Harry, presented Officer lUKi under Mr. Parsons ' direction to an enthusiastic audi- ence. During the Easter ' acation, the form migrated to Florida. The Fish sponged two weeks on Bishop during which all he did was to tour tennis courts with a four- teen-year-old Ford. Zeke fee])ed. Vacation tales entertained us admirably during all those rainy afternoons at the beginning of our last term at St. Mark ' s. Baseball under the Court, with one of the best hitting teams in St. Mark ' s history, got off to another auspicious start by winning its first five games. Although we rallied strongly again after four losses, Groton again barely nosed us out 16-15. The crew, headed by Mac, likewise experienced its difficulties. We feel that too often at St. Mark ' s are the success of a form and the success of its athletic teams held to be synonymous, and we sincerely hope that we may have proved this to be a fallacy. Well, the end is in sight. As this is written, we have but exams to hurdle, and then college. Twang has been wished good luck in that darn old Greek exam by some featiiered friend, and hence can ' t miss. As a form, we have had the reputation of not taking things seriously enough. This we can ' t deny, but assure our critics that the capacity and potentiality is there when necessary, and that in our afi eetion for the school we are genuinely sincere. Frequently this feeling may have been con- cealed, but in parting we should like to express our appreciation to the entire staff, in and out of the building, who have made our living so pleasant, to the various members of the faculty who have cheerfully borne our youthful failings and patiently taught us, and to the Feather-Merchant Fifth Form for their cooperation and sense of humour which has united the Fifth and Sixth Forms as never before. Mr. Marr, in the difficult role of form adviser, has endeared himself to us all, and those breakfasts sans pareil with him and Mrs. Marr will always be one of our fondest memories. In dedicating this Lion to Mr. Baldy, which we did long before the announcement of his intention to resign, we express to him formally, gratification for the pleasure he bestowed on us, the sons of so many more of his grateful friends. Dr. and Mrs. Parkman have gained our love and respect and we hope that we may be worthy of the kindness and wisdom which they so generously offer. It is with sincere regret that we make this awkward bow of departure.

Wellington, Captain Herbert S. Tuckerman, Manager Roland D. Sawyer, Jr., Head Coach George Hardman, Coach George D. Braden, Coach The season was one of extremes. There never appeared a tinge of the average or mediocre in any of the games. The team either played a whale of a game or colored their efforts with the endeavors of aging schoolmarms. The first game of the season with Noble and Greenough found us giving them eight points on the first two plays of the game and then going out to win 26 to 8. Against Belmont Hill we scored two touchdowns very quickly by fine play and then for the rest of the game we puttered around, although after they had scored once, we did score another touchdown to make our lead secure. Milton found us losing Bill Moore early in the game and with him lost for that game and the rest of the season, we played the worst game of the season and of many seasons in succumbing, 19 to 6. Against Middlesex we scored easily and early on a forward pass. After that we descended into the depths of foot- ball despair, frittered away four scoring chances and permitted them to march the length of the field, put over the tying touchdown in the last second of play and then watched them kick the winning point. Thus we arrived at the Groton game — labelled with potentialities, brilliant and shrouded with a sometime effort that was, to say the least, listlessly languid. Groton proceeded to score two quick touch- downs in the first quarter which we matched in the second, and the end of the half found us tied at fourteen all. The third cjuarter found us continuing our brilliant efforts when we scored again and just failed in making it two touchdowns. From that time on we played true to form by slumping back into lackadaisical attempts and the final outcome found Groton scoring two more touchdowns, to win by the score of 27 to 20. Had there been more time I feel that we would have scored again. Our offense was one of the best, if not the best, that we have had. Our defense was one of the poorest. The difference in the abilities of the players to handle the one successfully and the other disastrously provokes an interesting analysis. In all of our games with the exception of Milton we scored when we had to do so — when the pressure was on. Why we lost was because there never was time to make up the deficit. I feel sure that had the Middlesex or Groton game been continued, we would have eventually won out. It was this lack, that of keeping the pressure on the other team for most of the game, that made the season wind up in such a woeful state. The reason for this was twofold: first, the offense was so effective that the team came to believe that at about any time that they wished or had to score, they might do so and this was true provided they had time enough; second, with this attitude the defensive play suffered tremendously. Finally, regardless of the seeming condemnation in tlie foregoing paragraphs, I wish to thank Captain Wellington and his squad for their loyalty and cooperation. It was one of the finest groups of boys that I have coached. I know that I express the sentiment of the other coaches when I say that it was a privilege and a pleasure to be associated with such a squad and the reason that I have been somewhat blunt, if it needs any justification, is that in the future you may be aware of some of the short- comings that an early season success breeds, regardless of the institution or sport that you may represent. t t-i c HOCKEY HOCKEY SQUAD Mr. Barl)er, Leeson, Motley, Barstow, Sherwin, Barrett, Ilushrnore, Cottrell, Gardner, J., Baldwin, D. {MaiKiffer).

Brown, Captain David Baldwin, Manager William W. Barber, Jr., Head Coach It is such a pleasure to write about the team of 1939 that it is difficult to con- dense all I have to say into the small space I am allowed. Certainly Charlie Brown ' s team was one of the best in the history of the school. We lost to Andover and Noble ' s by the close score of 1-0. For some reason we never did ourselves justice when playing away from home, something I hope will be remedied another year. The fact is that the competition this year was unusually stiff. Before the season began, we thought that every one of our most important rivals was expecting big things — and we were right. The team ' s greatest exploit was the 6-3 defeat admin- istered to the Harvard Freshmen, the second time such an event has occurred, and the first time it has happened since 1906. By the score of 4-2 they defeated an all- star Worcester Academy team that outskated them, but was completely outfought. I asked them to make it five years in a row over Milton, and they did it. I asked them to give me my first taste of victory over Belmont Hill in my three years as coach, and they did that too. Both these games, played against teams as strong as any I have seen oppose St. Mark ' s, were decided by the margin of a single goal. Every member of the team played until he was ready to drop. Previously with fine hockey they had overwhelmed Pomfret, 6-0. There are several reasons for the team ' s success. For one thing, in Charlie Brown it had a captain who combined all the qualities a coach prays to find in his captain: firm and inspiring leadership, intelligence, coolness under fire, defensive and offensive skill, willingness to shoulder any responsibility or burden, a sound knowledge of the game, remarkable endurance, and dogged determination. Another important factor, clo.scly allied to the first, was the strong defense, the backbone of the team. I can honestly say that Brown and Childs, who played almost all of every game, were as good as any schoolboy defense men I have ever seen. I am sure that Steve O ' Neill, another star in a long line of star St. Mark ' s goal guards, and himself an extremely important cog in the excellent defense, will bear me out on this. Then in the forward line Captain-elect Lobdell, Wallace, and Moore made a fine, aggressive veteran combination that will carry on in the same style another year, and I hope will score as many goals as they did this winter. The second lin e of Rushmore, Harte and Sherwin was an unusually good one. In passing, I can ' t help giving special mention to Dick Harte, a self-made skater who never let up, and was never too pooped to pound back to his own cage to avert a possible goal. His sort can play on my team any time. One of the principal reasons for the successful season, however, and the thing that made it so much fun, was the keenness of the whole squad, who seemed to enjoy every minute they were on the ice. There was a buoyancy of spirit combined with an aggressive, businesslike attitude that from the start presaged a pleasant and successful season. If the squad feels the way I do about it, they will think of the winter of 1939 often, and the thought will l)e accompanied by those warm feelings that such happy memories always arouse. W. W. B.

Palmer, Caplain Charles B. Saunders, Coach David S. Randolph 1„ ,, NiLES Chubb Co-Manmiers The practices in the cage gave promise of a very heavy-hitting team. This was borne out through the season, as the team had one of the highest batting averages in St. Mark ' s baseball history. In the first game Captain Palmer pitched St. Mark ' s to a 2-2 tie with a highly touted Boston Latin team. It was evident that the last year ' s veterans, Palmer, Bradlee, Lutkins and Moore, were to be ably backed up by the newcomers. Brown, AVallace and Patterson. Brown sparked the team ' s 14-12 victory over St. George ' s by hitting two home runs and two singles. A 10-7 victory over Belmont Hill followed and then a 7-0 win over Middlesex. Barton pitched the shutout allowing only six hits and receiving excellent support from the team. The Brooks game was won 22-7 with everyone participating in the slug-fest. In the Decrfield game the team reached its height. The hard and timely hitting which had featured its attack in the previous games enabled the team to beat their excellent opponents, 13-9. Through this period of victories the team ' s personnel was constantly changed in hopes of improving its rather shaky defensive play. Potter, who developed rapidly as a hitter was moved to second, and Barrett to third. St. Mark ' s lo.st its first game to Milton 5-2. The only batter who could fathom Sherrill ' s bafHing delivery was Bradlee who blasted out a home run. Far more serious than the loss of the game was the subsequent loss of Patterson for the balance of the season through a broken finger. He was an excellent defensive catcher and a good hitter. St. Mark ' s went into a decided slump in the next two games losing 11-5 and 18-4 to Middlesex and the Harvard Freshmen respectively. In the Noble and Greenough game the team showed signs of coming out of its hitting slump, but poor defensive play lost the game, 11-9. Four days before the Groton game, an injury to Potter again forced a change in personnel. Moore was moved from centerfield to .second, and Palmer changed from pitcher to catcher. The game itself was a free-.scoring affair. Both teams shelled pitchers who had been very effective in previous games. The lead changed eight times, but unfortunately the team ' s two-run rally in the ninth inning fell one short of Groton ' s total and the final score was 16-15. Palmer proved himself a real captain by leading the hitting with a triple, a double, and a single, and catching excellently. Considering the fact that five out of eleven games were lost including the Gro- ton game, the season can hardly be called a success. Perhaps the team ' s poor show- ing can be attributed to the fact that because of injuries it was never able to play as a unit for more than two games. Palmer had to play a total of six positions, and players were constantly being shifti ' d between the infield and outfield. Throughout the season Mr. Saunders coached very ably, and deserved better luck, also thanks are due to Co-Managers Randolph and Chubb who carried on so efficiently in spite of the fact that they had no assistant managers. In closing, the Sixth Form wishes Captain Moore ' s team the best of luck through the season of 1940. R. H.

Perkins, Manat er On the record a poor season, our only winning boat has been the third crew, who twice has started an afternoon ' s proceedings with a victory for St. Mark ' s and then has watched the senior crews fail to achieve similar success. Starting early in April with a light but fairly well-matched four, we had hopes of developing a reasonably smooth and neat combination. But as though lack of weight was not of itself a sufficient handicajj, sickness soon reach out to rob the four of its stroke and captain. During McVickar ' s absence, Childs and Leeson, the re- maining veterans, did well in leading and keeping up the spirit of the squad, but his place was hard to fill and our original combination, which looked quite promising, was able to row together in only one race, that against Middlesex. The replacement in the first boat meant a re-shuffle and a corresponding setback for all the lower crews and thus we faced Brooks and Noble ' s with two boats that had possibilities but not a great deal of mileage behind them. The story of the races is more or less the same. Competing in every case but one with heavier crews, St. Mark ' s was well in the race over the first part of the course, but when length and power began to pay dividends our boats faded away: this, one feels, was the most disappointing feature of the whole season, that when the pressure was increased, our crews seemed to lack the extra resources that their opponents were able to call forth. Only in two races against Middlesex and Harvard Second Freshmen, — incidentally in these races the odds seemed most heavily against us — did the first crew do itself justice. In the latter race it handled a heavy wind very creditably, and rowing with fire and pluck, hung on to its opponents and covered the course in a fashion of which it may well be proud. The club crews found their season rather broken up by temporary absences and it was difficult to keep the same combinations going for any length of time. Fearing showed a marked superiority and proved it by winning l)oth the races in wherries and shells. Finally our thanks are due to Perkins, the manager, and his able assistant, who put in many hours of labour keeping the boats, which begin to show their age, in good condition. It will be a pleasure to them and, indeed, to all of us to know that through the generosity of Mr. Sohier we are to be presented with a new four next year. The Boat Club is deeply grateful to him. W.

Harden, Armour, C, Bradlee, Leeson, Stuart (Captain), Emory, Childs, Gray, M., Bartlett, C. Soccer Captain Stuart and his eleven were fortunate in that they were able to play off all five of their scheduled games. The first match against Watertown produced a tight struggle in which the greater skill of our opponents was well matched by the superior dash of the St. Mark ' s team. St. Mark ' s led all the way till the last quarter when the superior strength of the Watertown reserves eventually told again.st us. The Groton game was marked by some skilled footwork on the part of Palmer, our center forward, and aggressive attacking by our forward line and halfbacks as a whole. A period of wintry weather then descended upon us with the result that St. Mark ' s played a powerful St. George ' s team without much greatly needed practice. However, aggressive attacking by our forwards and liaifhacks gave us the edge over Noble ' s and Middlesex. Thus the St. Mark ' s team ended the season with a record of three games won out of a possible five . The team as a whole showed distinct possibilities, though it was much handi- capped by the loss of ten days ' practice before the St. George ' s game. The forward line with McLean, Palmer, Bartlett and Captain Stuart on the right wing was fast, dangerous and ready to make the most of their opportunities, ( hilds and Emory as halfbacks did good work backing up our forward line and in turning de- fensive play into a strong offence. Harden, whose size commanded respect, was our most reliable back and Leeson did sterling work in goal. The reserves are to be praised for their cooperation and ability to fill in at crucial moments. Most en- couraging were the eagerness of the whole squad to improve, and their readiness to practice under the worst conditions. W. T.

Debating Frederick W. Hackett, Coach. Wilfred T. Grenfell, Coach Under our new plan of lidding debates in each of the opi)osing scliools in the same evening, St. Mark ' s met Middlesex on December tenth. The teams, for this first debate of the season, were composed of members of the F ' ifth Form only. Burr, Campbell, Lowe, R., and Wellington, T., represented us at Middlesex, and W ' alker, Wallace, H., Dimond, and Harwood made up the home team. The c(uestion was Resolved: That the Munich Accord was a definite step toward world peace. Middle- sex showed the effect of better preparation and won both debates. On February tenth and eleventh, we met Milton on the question, Resolved: That we should approve Chancellor Hitler ' s expansion policy as shown during recent years. Walker, Dimond, Lowe, and Stockly, J., gave a very good account of themselves at Milton but lost the decision by a vote of two to one. Campbell, O ' Neill, Wellington and Walker turned the tables on the following evening at St. Mark ' s and won by a unanimous decision. The debate produced some very spirited .speaking and was well received by the audience. On March eleventh, we stepped out into the college freshman class and met two Williams teams on the question. Resolved: That the Ignited States should form an alliance with Great Britain. Goodyear, Harwood, O ' Neil, and Walker lost a close decision largely through the effective opposition offered by William H. Van Loon. Brown, C, Harder, P., Bartlett, C Potter, and Bradlee journeyed to Williams- town and won our first debate against a college freshman team. The decision was unanimous. They made an unusually effective presentation of their case and were highly commended by the judges from the Williams faculty. The Prize Debate was held on the evening of April twenty-sixth. Harder, P., O ' Neill, R., Lowe, and Walker upheld the affirmative, and Brown, C, Goodyear, Bartlett, C, and Potter, the negative of the proposition. Resolved: That labor is en- titled to a full and equal share with management in determining policies in all in- dustries. The negative was awarded the decision in a very close contest. F. W. H.

Your hearts may ache ' Coz we have gone; So our thanks we send To all our friends. For the fun and all We had at the Hall. „, „, iiie VVonien. Friday night we sat down to a delicious meal at the Arms sixty-six strong, since two of our number were unescorted, and since the Foxcroft delegation arrived amid a chorus of war whoops well after the third course. At 9:30 we ad- journed to school and danced to the music of Newt Perry (S.M. ' 36) and his orch- estra. The music was even better than we dared hope, although the older generation was bewailing its inability at keeping time. After a supper in Mrs. Parkman ' s parlor, during which the picture was taken and charms given out, dancing was resumed until 2:30. Saturday morning was passed in various fashions after a ten o ' clock breakfast. An ice carnival was staged, walks were taken, and much talking was done. But all was curtailed in time to take a bus to the ISl House for lunch. Roller skating in Worcester was most amusing and swell fun. Supper at school was followed by a shipwreck party in the old gymnasium to which the whole school was invited. At eleven o ' clock, we went on the traditional hayride, followed by tea and cocoa at Mrs. Parkman ' s parlor. Sunday, after church, the girls departed to their several destinations, and we started to rehash the week-end for the first of no small number of times. This year we introduced an innovation, that of inviting the entire Fifth Form, which was for us a great success. AVe should like to pass on a little advice, however, to our successors, namely to omit the hayride, unless they turn out to be abnormal- ly warm blooded, immune to hay fever, and oblivious to discomfort in general. To Mrs. deRham for her tactful efficiency as a chaperon, to Mrs. Suydam, Mrs. Braden, Mrs. Barber and Mrs. Weed, those most gracious hostesses, we are immeasurably grateful. But above all we should like to thank Mrs. Parkman whose cooperation and untiring effort made the week-end a success. The Dramatic Club NiLEs Chubb, President Chauncey L. Parsons, Coach Henry W. Munroe, Biisines.t Manager I nder the efficient guidance of President Chubb, the St. Mark ' s Dramatic Ckib presented Augustin MacHugh ' s Officer 666 on March 4, before an audience whose cordiality justified the revival of this well-worn farce. Chubb animatedly depicted the even-tempered Travers Gladwin, beset by the difficulty of rescuing the willful Helen Burton — otherwise Nickerson — from the resourceful picture-thief Alfred Wilson — alias Leeson — , without involving her in publicity. To the title role of Michael Phelan, Business Manager Munroe brought a rich brogue, and an ap- propriate l)ewilderment when his uniform periodically disappeared from his shoul- ders. Moore stirred the audience to hilarity by the antics of Whitney Barnes, who declined to let handcuffs deter the offer of his heart to Sadie Small, locally known as Appleton. Marquand agitatedly coursed through the scenes in the guise of a grande dame, Mrs. Burton, whose misconceptions misled Police Captain Stone — Gray, to you — into meting out unwonted penalties. As the Japanese valet Bateato, Barber burst into tears or laughter at inappropriate moments; as the shppery ciiauffeur Watkins, Harder wielded iiis blackjack with cordial will; as Detective Kearney, Warburton further enbroiled Gladwin, Wilson, and Phelan inextricably in the in- volved plot; as Policeman Ryan, Goodyear arrested the just and the unjust with equal zeal. Three other policemen — Bartlett, Bradlee, Lutkins — dashed about at constantly accelerated pace in vain pursuit of the felonious Wilson. In all this a competent staff aided materially: Palmer, who assumed the Man- ager ' s duties; Pierce, who looked after the stage; Anthony, who provided trunks, suitcases, and sheets at proper moments; Burr, who timed lights to the second; Campbell, who rang doorbells assiduously; Emory, O ' Neill, and Wallace, who were stationed at the entrance; Brown, Childs, Patterson, Potter, and Wellington, who ushered the audience to their places; Cromwell and Pitney, who ran errands as Call Boys. To many others the Dramatic Club is also indebted for invaluable aid: to Messrs. Mauro and Pendleton for scenery, to Mr. Deer for electrical supervision, to Mr. Hall for handsome canvases in Gladwin ' s art collection, to Mr. Prendiville for the imposing chest into which Wilson and Phelan disappeared by turns, to Mr. Lynch for make-ups, to Mrs. Parkman and Mrs. French and the Sewing Room for assistance with girls ' costumes. Despite uncertainties of ill health and other mishaps to the cast, the perform- ance moved with a celerity and a precision that left the coach appreciative of all this congenial cooperation. C. L. P.

Hall ' 37, Director Purchased in 1920 by St. Mark ' s as a charity camp for boys from the city slums of Massachusetts, Brantwood consists of about 150 acres — all but a few of which are woods — near Peterboro, New Hampshire. Each year about 170 underprivileged boys are given a two weeks ' vacation under the supervision of St. Mark ' s boys and graduates. Funds for the maintenance of Brantwood — about $4000 a season — are raised solely through contributions of boys in School and their parents, the proceeds of the annual St. Mark ' s-Groton Dance, the Dramatic Club, and various minor sclicmes organized by the Treasurer. Brantwood is dependent on the School not only for financial support, but also for a yearly contingent of Temporary and Permanent Counsellors. About eighteen members of the Fifth Form annually donate their services for two weeks as Tem- poraries. They live with the boys, play in their games, and through close contact gain an eflfective influence over them. The administration of the camp is in the hands of a group of young alumni, who as Permanent Counsellors staying the full six weeks of the season handle the accounts, the commissary, athletic supervision, and general utility work, under the leadership of the Director, who is a recent graduate. The specific schedule runs on a basis of inter-group competition between shack groups of ten boys and a Temporary Counsellor each. These shacks compete with one another in athletics, inspection, and achievement tests, and at the end of the term members of the winning group receive a B jersey — equivalent from the boys ' point of view to an S.M. sweater. This sort of competition affords an opportunity of teaching the boys, of giving them an incentive to learn and to progress, and it es- tablishes a central theme for each two-week period. In addition, especially deserving boys are invited to stay over for the next term as a recognition of leadership and general ability. In this way older boys are given a satisfactory individual standard of excellence. The idea of a charity camp supported by such a school as St. Mark ' s is not a new one, for other schools, notably Groton, St. Paul ' s, and Milton run similar camps. But any Brantwood Counsellor will tell you that there is more in its purpose than mere recreation. There has been a definite and enthusiastic effort on the part of the Council to instill in these uhderi rivileged boys the St. Mark ' s ideals of cooperation, sportsmanship, and clean living. This is made possible only by the spirit of common purpose which unites the St. Markers who give up part of their vacation to Brant- wood. In this sense the camp is the fulfillment — the fundamental being — of what we like to call the St. Mark ' s spirit. To graduate without Jiaving spent a term at Brant- wood is to have missed one of the es.sentials of what is best about the School. It would be impossible to close without an appreciation of the work of the St. Markers who made Brantwood what it was last year. Under the directorship of Warren Winslow ' 36, the camp acquired a new vitality and purpo.se, fostered by a permanent Council composed of Allen ' 34, Ervin ' 36, Cook ' 36, Burnett ' 37, Forbes ' 37, Hall ' 37, Townsend ' 37, Davis ' 38, and Frothingham ' 38. Tuckerman ' 39 gave up six weeks to serve as a Temporary Counsellor, and the following spent two weeks at Brantwood: Bradlee ' 39, Childs ' 39, Emory ' 39, Franklin ' 39, Gray ' 39, Lutkins ' 39, Perkins ' 39, Potter ' 39, Stockly ' 39, Stuart ' 39, Wellington ' 39, Cook ' 37, and Moore ' 40. _ p.
