Form History September, 194-0! The odds were three to two for Roosevelt over Willkie, Europe had just become Hitleris playground- and the original fourteen wandered in bewilderment down the halls and corri- dors which, for most of them, were to be a shelter for six long years. The school as a whole was unimpressed by '46g ap- parently we were just another bunch of fresh new kids, and we behaved as such for the first few days. There were the usual incidents which are constantly re- lated in form histories: we strode across the quadrangle, we gazed into the sixth form room, and we were very fresh-but it was a short time indeed before we were given to understand that sixth formers were SIR',, that their ground was hal- lowed, and their will was done on earth. Surprisingly little time elapsed before our small feet were firmly on the ground, and it was then that everyone began to sit up and take notice. The form became solidly unified under the bullying leader- ship of Pete, who was really Waltt-r. when he proclaimed himself president of the Council for the Betterment of the First Form. Infected now with the spirit of organization, '46 initiated a fervent cam- paign for notoriety. Everyone helped in his own way. School was rocked on its heels as George collected a comfortable forty-eight marks in four days. Slate readings took 011 a new interest, as everyone wondered if Tabe, who was by now permanently black with coal dust, could break his own record. lle frequently came close. Meanwvhile Dave, fascinated by the shiny yellow color of the sixth form's straw hats, yielded to temptation one evening. The head monitor, relaxing outside the sixth form room, was startled to find the contents of a bottle of Teel being emptied upon his new Panama from an open window in Dorm A. The upper school gnashed its teeth, and many cried out that paddling be renewed. The whis- per became a roarf You are the worst form in school!,' Our first sight of the Groton jerseys produced bitter memories, and the rest of the term Hashed by to vacation. Re- turning for the winter term, we found many outside activities curtailed, and necessity mothered a new field of interest for usfthe dormitory. Three months in HA had been sufficient to teach us the wiles of the prefects, but they still man- aged to outwit us at times. It was Nick the Stick who first discovered the sport that could be had atop the alcove parti- tions, and the Rough Riders were formed. Lights out at night became the signal for titanic aerial struggles, until hostilities were forcibly curtailed one night when Red took a 7-foot drop onto Lindsey's bed. Chris Tis awoke with a wild yell to bring the prefects on the run. Nights were quiet then, except for Benis rhythmic snor- ing, but he was eventually muffled and smothered by a barrage of linen. The winter term ended with the Stark Flood, precipitated by a fifth former's acrobaties on the sprinkler pipes outside HAH. The evening ritual of tooth brushing was enlivened by the steady flow of Water under the door. Enchanted, we applauded as the gathering stream found its way to the prefects' room, but the hour was saved as Mel in his galoshes stemmed the tide with numerous well-placed towels. Come springtime, nigger baby and eloister ball gave us little free time, and before we knew it, the baseball season was over. Groton eked out a slim victory, leaving us disgusted that all our wood- hauling had been in vain. Exams loomed large and frightening for us, but Prize Day came with the knowledge that no one had failedftoo badly. In the autumn we were mighty second formers, but it seemed that we were over- run by an unnecessarily weird collection of characters, and for weeks the fifteen additions were considered untouchables. Among those thrust upon us were Dudley the Dog-faced Boy, a strapping hunk of man called Doug, and Edwin Upton Curtis called Buffy. Another claimed in nasal tones to be Saaandy,', but not much later he vanished from the scene, a victim of modern education. Our cosmopolitan set was complement- ed by such colorful personalities as Don the Cuban, Mickey from Rochester, and Schkulle, who proclaimed himself the feudal landlord of two-thirds of Illinois: not to mention L.W.C., a brute with two large protruding foreheads. Others never ceased to amaze us for the remainder of the year, such as the pie-faced wonder with the widow's peak who closely re- sembled a panda, and the lean and lanky yachtsman of the gravel voice. Most of the above mentioned were caged in Dorm A , but there were also in BU James the Mouse and Fred the Fifi. Never a bright form, at best, in the previous year, we were now startled by the scholastic achievement of Hunk, and especially Larry, who weekly set new classroom standards. We were a carefree group, overshadowed by the war only during occasional air raid trips to the potato cellar in the dead of night. The faculty of this period was a motley group and extremely unstable. The draft situation brought new faces to the mas- ters' study constantly. Hazy indeed are the recollections of English classes under names dimly remembered as Billman, Kuhn, and Smith. Science opened an entirely new field for all of us, and Mr. Coe's lectures held our undivided attention. The climax came after we had progressed from the bees and Howersg one day Larry, upon hearing the truth about it all, fainted dead away. Dormitory prowling after lights was very much the rage. We recall the night when the harassed prefect of B naively shouted from his doorway, Whoever was making all that racket come in heref' He was dumbfounded as a stream of pajama-clad youths, twenty-three in all, crowded into his room . . . Calisthenics kept us vigorous, and we shall always look back on the many happy hours that flitted by all too rapidly as we frolicked on Herk's obstacle course. The baseball season went its way, and the reality of troubled times was brought closer to us when we learned that Dr. Parkman, whom in two years we had come to respect deeply, was to leave us for the Army. We are sorry that we were not old enough to know him more intimately, and the departure of Mrs. Parkman, who was like a mother to every one of us, saddened us immeasurably. His sincerity and wise conscientiousness and her regard for our happiness will always be gratefully re- membered. Two old faces were missing and several even older ones were added as our third year opened. In the former category were the Cuban Queer and Tugboat Dave, who had not gone for goodeas yet. The new old faces were headed by Davey Jones, with a draft deferment, and Phil- bur, who was no spring chicken himself. A round-faced little lad called Rosen- krantz vanished into his alcove to study, but reappeared in a big Way on Prize Day. A specimen known as Spring- field Spot and Ben the Dune-Dune, who shaved even then, augmented the humor- ous section of our group. Willy B., who is still around school, drove himself up in a Cadillac, and peremptorily requested Mr. Hackett to carry his radio and trunk upstairs. While Dorms D and E fought pitched battles daily, C became intensely dis- turbed by Philbur, who was determined to show off his Atlas physiqueg a resist- ance movement refused to be cowed by his biceps, fone night his alcove disap- peared entirely. In the winter We welcomed Mr. Brew- ster as the new headmaster. The new term had barely gotten under way when George, in violent disapproval of the disciplinary system in general, and his own twelve marks in particular, can- celled his appointment on the coal pile by means of an eraser in the slate room. He thereby provided the new chief executive with his Hrst unhappy task of meting out justice. The Boy Scout Troop, which had seen greener years under Fap and Yak, came under the supervision of Mr. Potter in its third year, much to Ron's irritation. VVhen the dues were raised and good times placed at a minimum, a rebellion ensued. 'Tll run this troop the Way it ought to be, and anyone who doesnit like it can leave, quoth Pott. Everybody promptly left. CThc situation was smoothed over sufficiently to allow the organization to totter to a shaky death at the end of the year.D One of this wartime faculty, persecuted by his sixth form corridor, broke down and wept copiously in SC Latin class one morning. His students, bored by this lachrymosc performance, gathered up their Latin cribs and walked out. The Blue Beetle, since departed, de- cided to house-train his large dog in the biology lab, which frequently distracted us from the mating habits of the aeri- didae melanoplus: Those of us who know the little fellow well,e,' Gus Serino had informed us at the bc- ginning of the year that his course was to be mainly history, though l'm your English teacher too, so when I say read a book, ya gotta read it goodf, The end of the winter term brought with it a Bay State cold snap, and Dorm C slumbered in the shower room, until Doug, normally an extremely well-be- havcd lad, yielded to some hidden inhibi- tion and flooded the place. Miss Wheeler became hysterical as Water slowly seeped through the dining room ceiling. Spring brought a fitting climax to the year as the squad knocked off Groton's highly touted ball team, and the form joyfully pulled the wagon in the only victory celebration we were destined to see. That summer was one of glorious loafingethe last for most of us --- al- though Elsie and Hunk, the big boys, went to Brantwood, and Brockie picked up a laboring man's point of View and a good deal of easy cash in a shipyard. VVe returned to face our fourth form year with new bass voices and conscious maturity. There was a good deal of rump- us, confusion, and spirited bull sessions the first weeks, centering around North 3. Recreation in New Dorm took a highly unattractive turn, to the horror of a queer studious individual in the sixth form who found himself in the thick of it. Every authority in school looked on us as a noisome group and, as the vise of discipline tightened, the nocturnal meet- ings became more and more clandestine and infrequent. Christopher and fluttcry Sandy Jack- son had fallen by the Wayside, but our number was enhanced by nine char- acters Who abode in Dorm E and re- mained Well behaved for a very brief period. They included Stevie, Bruce, Secant, Pat, Albie, and Bill the Phin. Then there was Silent Ken, Equot a Beak Cas yet unchristenedl, and a gang- ling redhead travelling under the name of Dick Clark, who brought a carton of chcroots with him just to get off to the right start. Equot immediately spread a series of insidious rumors about his roommate, and Albie commenced his school career by yelling Woof Woof out of his window at Yak,who was playing tennis right underneath just to see what would happenf' Woofie came panting right up to Dorm E, and A.B., aghast at his sin, bellowed excuses in the style that later became characteristic. The dreams of military glory in the S.M.T.C. that we had nurtured for three years were shattered as soon as we be- came members of the Southboro Army. Cflarkie paraded for a while in unpolished sneakers, but finding that this only netted him marks, decided not to appear at all and refused to attend maneuvers for the rest of the year. Junior Goad, struggling under a huge rifle, was admonished by his ofhcers to stand up straight until it became evident that Benjie just couldn't stand up any straighter. In fact, the only conscientious member of the military was Gordon, who already pic- tured himself in the role of colonel. After a disappointing loss to Groton and the interminable weeks of soccer and boredom, We departed to enjoy the Yule season and discover the questionable joys of Larut. That winter was memorable for the pilgrimage which Bud and Stevie made to Marlboro during the sixth form dance, and for Clarkie's nicotine habits, which reached nearly a pack a day. No sense of responsibility yet lay heavy upon us and the roughhousing became intolerable to prefects and masters alike. Someone thought it would be exciting to hang people out of Windows by their feet, until the sport was curtailed one day by the sixth form just as Brockie,s toes were dis- appearing over the window sill. It looks bad from the quadranglef' they said, by Way of explanation. Jonesie, who was rumored to be of voting age, forsook us for the Merchant Marine, and Willie Beehan took one last dentist trip', to New York and didn't show up again for two years. Springtime saw numerous recruits for a summer at Brantwood, and a thirteen- inning defeat at the hands of Groton, a procedure that was beginning to become boring. Ribald songs echoing from North 3 were heard by a sixth former, enjoying the spring evening on the far side of Belmont Field for some unexplained reason, and once again discipline closed in on us. Soon it was Prize Day and we left in a flurry of suitcases and laundry bags for a summer of Brantwood, blissful loaiing, or eight weeks at St. Mark's for the aged members of the form. September, 1944, found us all present and accounted for in New Corridor, North Q, and overflowing down West. The group was augmented by Hands', Brainerd, a blond lad from the Corn Belt, and Nat from Hawaii, who, al- though right-handed, was promptly lab- eled I,efty.,' Christopher, the flying tackle, was with us once more, and we became a form outstanding in number, if not in naughtiness. However, the Butt Squad began to shape up suspiciously as George, Scotty, Clarkie of course, and some thought, Cyno. CEd. note: how absurdfj. Stevie refrained from naive excursions to the woods and partook quietly in his own room. We were never much of a group for wine, women, and nicotine though, and it wasn't long before three members of the squad repented their ways, to the tune of two proba- tions and one permanent retirement. The retired member was last heard from when he requested Mr. Brewster for a recom- mendation to Yale in 1946. As far as we know he failed to obtain it. The Form was the mainstay of all the teams, although we lost the football encounter with Groton again. History class became diverting to the point of bcdlam, and never really did quiet down, despite entreaties from numerous faculty members. Pete the Snerd would bang upon the radiator in Room H violently and then the entire class would troop down to find Mr. Deer to fix it,'y reeessing class for the day. On Sundays the Form found they could concentrate on evangelical matters while playing checkers and reading at the same time, and the bass section came through on the chants so strongly that the tunes were later changed to ones that nobody could follow. Other members of l the '46 congregation were alleged to have hissed the name of our late departed President in the sermon, but Mr. Brew- ster delivered a sharp lecture in Sacred Studies class which brought us once more into the fold. In the middle of the year a large drum- mer boy from Detroit appeared and made himself at home promptly. He was viewed with suspicion for a few weeks because of a flurry of weird nocturnal scares.,' However, that matter was all cleared up and St. Mark's evenings were once again unsullied. Jealous of the sixth form quad- rangle playground, we conceived of our own blanket parties and bounced the Buglemouse high into the ether every Sunday morning. VVith the advent of warm weather comes baseball, and Pete, Philbur, and Mickey starred that year. Politics never really reared its ugly head, but sixth form positions were not wholly dismissed from mind, and Chris made his last des- perate bid for Head Mo. It came as no surprise when Hunk Qwho was football cap by the wayj finally snatched the position, supported by a tremendous group of mo,s, including Gorgeous Georgeous, who was still on probation, so far as he remembered. Secant was broom and dustpan tzarg Toyt was given dining room control, and there was much jockey- ing for soft jobs and comfortable prefect- ships in the coming year. At Commencement in May, the Form suffered a serious injury with the loss of Philbur, Bruce, Mickey, and Stevie, all good athletes and even better compan- ions. It was then that we began to feel, as wartime forms ahead of us had felt, more and more like 'Klittle Injuns settin' on a fence, being picked off by draft boards. That summer saw the termination of hostilities in August and we returned to school for the final chapter, refreshed from peacetime celebration. Salty, who had been with us only a year, apparently fell in love with a hula dancer, for he remained in Hawaii. A new addition was Wecgee, known to all but the summer school veterans as merely someone who spelt his name with a 'z,. The sixth form year is commonly known as the most enjoyable, and ours has been no exception. We felt seriously hampered at first by a new set of rules, devised expressly for us it seemed, re- gardingMarlboro and downtown,',but as time went by we found other means of recreation, nearly all of them legitimate- - which is exceptional for a sixth form. All but the Vicky Squad were engaged on the gridiron, although Captain Doug suf- fered a broken ankle in the Noble's game and Dred Scott sacrificed his spleen for the alma mater. Fred the Fifi held down the captaincy of the Jayvees, while Ashby Qviee-president of the V. Squadj, picked apples, raked leaves, and dreamt of the baseball season. Things were humming in West Corri- dor, where thirty stoves and radios popped fuses thick and fast, putting Mr. Deer in a frenzy. Someone discovered a mine of fuse replacements in the chapel, but Harry B. insisted that services could not and would not be held in the dark. Stoves were then rationed, two to a room we believe. So enjoyable was life in general that a bewildered skunk meandered into the sixth form room one night to see what all the rumpus was about. He and Suzy fought a pitched battle in which Weegee finally triumphed, but the wood pussy left fond memories which fumigation could not remove. The harmony of the term was inter- rupted, however, when people began .to turn canary yellow one by one, and Doc Fulsom, suspecting that something must be wrong, called in his colleagues to un- cover an epidemic of jaundice. The Gro- ton game was cancelled, and those of us who were not prostrate with yellow eye- balls were racked by smoker's hack as evening conventions in the headmaster's study were once again populous. Thanks- giving came and with it the glorious abandon with which we have always greeted vacation time. In a few weeks we were off again to taste the joys of Christmas and the St. Mark's-Groton extravaganza at the Pierre. Come the season of fur coats and head colds, Captain Rube the Tube led his boys out onto the ice frequently with snowshovels, while Ashby and Cyno banged away in the fives courts, losing their only encounter with Groton. Hacker hockey, well publicized from the start, vied with basketball for a major letter, but Chizz and Kobnonch, through the bitter campaigning of Hercules, won out. Brockie breezed up to Mr. Schenck's room one evening with a hat, coat, and empty suitcase, announcing quietly that the scholastic pressure was too great for him and he had elected the only possible course- to run away. Mr. Schenck, perturbed, rushed down to tell Mr. Brewster, and Brock went back to his year-long hibernation in New Corri- dor. Meanwhile Hoofer, sucking up to Badge for no particular reason, had borrowed his pistol to clean it in Prendy shop, lost a vital part of the mechanism, and returned the firearm four months later. Larry's dance weekend arrived, and with it a bevy of beauties who were catered to by everyone and seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. We did! Everybody seemed to be receiving Presidential greetings in the mail, and, although never a strong group for cooked- up weekends, we did find time to buzz off for physicals and things, In fact, Buglemouse buzzed off for good in Febru- ary, the only member of the accelerators who had to graduate at midyearsg he had been with us since 1941, and his loss was felt as keenly as that of the June quartet. Dave Winslow unfortunately also hit the trail in the winter, for divers reasons. It was Det who remarked with a yawn one day, I just can't find time to fit studies into my curriculum, and when we de- parted in March the college boards seemed far distant. They seemed less distant when our last term at school opened, and in no time at all the Test was upon us, for all but one. The one was Brockie, who felt he couldn't break his procrastination record and suddenly came down with a nasty cold. People began to consider L1oN brags, and following the failure of numerous jazz, camera, and yo-yo clubs the French club was formed by Seabtool, Vibe, and other members of Ed class. The only two who failed to join up were Ben and Buffy, not through moral chastity, but because they never bothered with assignments anyway. The hicks of '46 set a new low in quad activities, because of faculty edicts. There was a certain amount of pyramid- ing and milling about, and one wintry day saw the erection of a giant snow man, but for the most part, we sat de- murely about the edge and sadly watched the grass grow lush and green. Baseball progressed under Mr. How- arth in a satisfactory manner, but cul- minated in a ghastly reverse at Groton, about which the less said the better, except that Captain Pete played very coolly and certainly deserved better than was provided by whatever Fates watch over diamonds. Crew was composed of Don, Albie, Hunk, and diminutive Pat. Together with the second boat they had a favor- able-looking scoreboard. Besides, at Fort Meadow at least Scottie could show off his tattoo. We had been joined in February by Bill Armstrong, a very affable veteran day scholar, and in April by a small blond visitor from the land of the fiords who fitted into the picture surprisingly well, considering his English vocabulary was limited to Ye-e-es?', As soon as the major sports ended, many of us dispersed for excursions to Boston or points more distant, to the disgust of Mr. Coe, who was making a last desperate attempt to build our bodies. A week before Prize Day Cfor which Punctuality Scotty could hardly waitj, Larry and his committee arranged a tradition - smashing Spring Dance which many thought even more successful than the first. Never before had such beauty graced the campus. As we all gathered in Chapel Corridor to shake a hundred and forty hands, it was with the realization that in a few hours we would disperse, not as in the happy com- mencements of previous years, but for all time, never to be together as a form again. It is customary in the sixth form his- tory to merely list a hundred and one mod- erately amusing escapades, proving what wicked little urchins the sixth form has really been, and represent this list of monkeyshines as being an accurate chron- icle of six years at St. Mark's. VVe have, admittedly, noted some of the rowdier high points of our career for our own amusement, but they cannot be seri- ously accepted as a true picture of the Class of '46. For one thing, we have never been very much of a form for earousing, if the truth be known, or at least not by way of comparison with some of our predeces- sors. From the third form year on up we have stood well in the graces of the faculty and the headmaster, because whenever we did raise hell we were usually naive enough to do it out in the open and promptly get caught! Looking back on our career at school, it is not, therefore, the mischief which especially stands out in our minds, it is the thousand trivia that make up life at St. Mark's. Recollections of bull ses- sions, sunbathing, evening smokers, and hours in the classroom or playing field will never forsake us. Nor shall we forget each other. We never eliqued up, beyond an occasional group of bridge or jazz enthusiasts, and hence there is a deep sense of comradeship between each and every one of us. Since our advent, it seems that just about everything that could have hap- pened haas' happened, Whether inside of school or in the world at large. We came in peace and We leave in peace, and in that respect have been more fortunate than the four classes which preceded us. Innovations since our arrival include the work program and waiting on table. There have been fires, a hurricane, a sprinkler-pipe flood, and air raid alarms. Because of the war we have seen the departure of our headmaster, Dr. Park- mang and we have also outlastcd thirty- one masters in our time. All of this only goes to show that we have attended St. Mark,s in abnormal times, but through- out the years we have reacted rather normally. We have piled up a surprising scholastic record fat both extremesj, and while, in view of the number of reverses on the field we have suffered, it would not be fair to boast of athletic prowess, we have never been exactly weak in that respect, either. Several members of the faculty whom we have known and respected are no longer with us. Mr. Brinley, hir. Eaton, Mr. Hardman, and Dr. Parkman we have not forgotten, or Mr. Hackett and Mr. Gaecon, who fortunately are returning next year. There are many other faculty members who still remain, for whom we hold a genuine affection: it is our fond expectation to return and greet them in future years. We have had closer contacts with Mr. Brewster than any other form before us, and his is one of the most difficult adieus to make. That, then, is the story of '46. We leave in time of peace but not of calm, in a world beset by trial and trouble. College is dubious for some of us, and many of us will feel the hot breath of the draft boards on our heels ere long. To Mr. Barber, our LION adviser, we extend our thanks, and also to Mr. Sawyer, who took us under his wing five years ago and guided us through the awkward age. If we ask to be remembered at all. it is not as a group strikingly outstanding, but merely as a good form which was fond of St. Markis School and the ideals for which it stands. 1946 Chickery Chick, a Westford hick, Complete with hound and gun, And where the deer or quail are thick Is where Bud finds his fun.

Although on the farm he may plow a straight furrow, In math and in French will he ever be thorough? This lad's a bit handsome, so courtly, so fair, But his vanity only extends to his hair.

THE FIVE CAPTAINS Hoyt, Kobusch, Bradlee, Taber, Donald Winslow PURT THE TEAM Hoyt, W., Rosenkrantz, Bradlee CCaptainD, Palmer Dixon, Lowell Pendill, Carter, Peter Dixon, Richards, B., Abbot, E., Chisolm, Donald Winsloww' FOOTBALL The Season It is difficult to say Whether or not the 194-5 football season could be called a success since the most important game, that with Groton, had to be cancelled because of sickness in both schools. The Brooks game was also cancelled due to our jaundice epidemic, and the season ended on the last Saturday of October with the team playing Miltoil. VVe won four out of the five games played and were optimistic about our future contests, so it was a great disappointment for everyone to have the season end so abruptly. hlost of the squad were Sixth Formers who had 11ever seen a victory over Groton, and they had looked forward all season to breaking Groton's string of victories. Following recent St. Mark,s tradition, injuries played havoc with the team in the early season. Captain Bradlee, a particu- larly good blocking tackle and signal caller, was lost for the season in the second game. In this same game Scott Stearns suffered a ruptured spleen, and Larry Chisolm a sprained ankle which kept him on the bench for two weeks and slowed him up a great deal. Jim Lowell, our best punter, pulled a muscle in early praetiee which kept him from kicking all season and handicapped his all-around ability. Dick Kobusch dropped out of football because of a head injury. I11 spite of these setbacks the team kept up its good spirit and played fine football to the end. The first game, with Portsmouth Pri- ory, resulted in a 12-6 victory for St. lVIark,s and was a good opening test. Wie discovered a weakness in our pass de- fence and worked to correct it during the next Week. As a result we made several THE SQYAD Strong, Harder, G., Card, Diek, Bohlen, Olney, James Roosevelt, Pepper, Lawrence, Southgate, Lobdell Mr. Lanier, Mr. Howarth, ltand, Fay, Le-Roy, Peter Dixon, Scully, Stearns, Dilworth, li., Taber, Mc-Foy, Selnvalw, Mr. Kimball, Clay Ulanagerj Pendill, Rosenkrantz, Donald Winslow, Abbot, E., Lowell, Bradlee CC'ap!a1'nD, Riehards, B., furter, Palmer Dixon, Hoyt, W., Chisolm interceptions in the Noble's game, helping us to score three touchdowns in the second half for a 27-7 victory. This second half was most gratifying to the coaches be- cause we had lost three of our best lines- men in the first half. The Belmont Hill game had a story- book ending when Lowell, inserted in the game for one play, took a lateral from Dixon to score the winning touchdown with 18 seconds of play remaining. I think we played our best game of the season against Middlesex. While the first team was on the field, Middlesex was held to one first down, and Lowell headed an offensive which ran up four touch- downs. The Milton game was disappointing. We seemed to have the edge during the first half and twice lost the ball on downs inside their ten-yard line. However, we bogged down in the second half, allowing Milton to push over two touchdowns on long runs. The failure of our passing game enabled Milton to use practically a nine man line which we couldn't pene- trate consistently enough to score. Several individuals played standout football during the season. Carter and Richards were especially strong on de- fense, particularly in the Middlesex and Milton games. Hoyt did some good punt- ing, and Dixon played consistently well at fullback. Pendill, Winslow, Scully, and Brainerd, all Sixth Formers, held up the end positions in good style. Lowell, cap- tain-elect, was the outstanding ground- gainer of the team, and, if he can de- velop good passing poise, he will make a great triple-threat back. There will be only four lettermen re- turning next fall, but if next year's squad maintains the good spirit and drive shown by its predecessor, We can look forward to the future with high hopes. E.

Ability to skate with some speed, agility, and balance is therefore the most import- ant fundamental of hockey. Even a good athlete who does little skating until he is twelve or thirteen will be no match in prep school for a mediocre athlete who has skated a good deal from five on. In reviewing the early skating history of the team of '46, my hope is that members of the squad, whose sons I look forward to coaching in another fifteen years, will be periodically reading these pages and will be inspired to act on themg and that other members of the school, some of whose sons I also hope to coach, will be equally affected. The only members of this year's team who skated naturally were fourth form- ers: Snelling, whose father personally trained him from the age of four, and McCoy, who began early in Illinois and carried on at Fay. From his first through his fourth form years Captain Taber could be seen on any wintry day brushing the ice with his ankles. Though he could hardly stand up alone on skates, I took my trained seal, Bradlee, on the squad his fourth form year because of his size and natural competitive sense. New Yorkers, Richards and Lowell skated little until they were thirteen. Scully had few chances to skate during his child- hood in England. Strong played one year at Fay before entering St. Mark's in the third form year and winning his letter in the fourth. Abbot's boyhood on a farm afforded him little time for skating, and Seabury's early winter athletic love was skiing. Thus only two members of this year's team had done much skating dur- ing the important formative years. The rest had to compensate for their awk- wardness by sheer determination. May the sons be chips off the old blocks in other respects, but may they be better skaters than the fathers! In spite of its awkwardness Captain Taber's team won three out of its five major games-those with Milton, Pom- fret, and Middlesex. Belmont Hill and Nobleis were much too fast for us. The team was not skunked in any game, and it amassed a total of forty-two goals, a record which reflects their vigorous determination. The man whose character and example were mostly responsible for the general determination of the team was center Lowell. He participated in twenty-five of the total goals scored. His wings, Richards and Captain-elect Tilghman, teamed with him to play what was often excellent hockey. In spite of shooting and skating trouble, Strong and Abbot always pushed the enemy to the limit, and Scully, the other member of the sec- ond line, was one of the most dangerous men on the squad. Taber, Bradlee, and Seabury handled the defense capably and firmly. The perseverance and intel- ligence of Ellis made him a good goalie who next year will be hard to beat. The close and jovial contacts on the rink and at the training table always make the winter term the happiest one for me, and this winter was certainly no exception. I look forward next year to cementing ties already established with the ten members of the squad who are returning, and I say good-bye to you eleven sixth formers CI include our indis- pensably happy co-managers Patterson and Rooseveltj with the comforting knowledge we have made lasting friend- ships-friendships that I look forward to renewing often, with you and through your sons.

BASEBALL The Season The baseball season was quite success- ful until the final game when the team fell apart against Groton, our traditional rivals. In this game the team tightened up so much physically and mentally that Groton was able to roll up a commanding lead in the first two innings. Groton played well throughout the game and deserved the victory. Although we knocked their starting pitcher from the box in a fifth inning uprising, their cap- tain took over the hurling chores and kept us well under control for the remainder of the game, the .final score being 11-6. We had every reason to expect better results because of the good ball played by the team on several occasions, particu- larly during the week prior to the Groton game, when Governor Dummer was held to two hits and was defeated by an 8-1 score. Also the hard hitting St. Se- bastian team, with a great seasonal record, was held to six hits and was defeated 8-6. These games seemed to indicate that we were at our peak for the Groton game and doesn't account in any way for our complete collapse at the start. We must shake loose from the complex the school has towards this game and approach it more sanely if we expect the boys to play their normal game. After losing the first game to Hudson High by very erratic play, the team played tight ball to win over Brooks and Belmont Hill. Then Dorchester High won easily, but the team rallied to beat Middlesex and Boston Latin. Noble and Greenough gave our pitchers a tough afternoon and won easily. However, the team played well in losing to Andover, and continued on with the victories over Governor Dummer and St. Sebastian. When our pitchers were right they gave very good accounts of themselves. THE TEAM Fay Ularzagerl, Strong, Tilghman, Taber, Rand, Saunders, C., Mr. Howarth Richards, li., Armstrong, Lowell, Hoyt, VV. ffzzplaillj, Kobnseh, Brainerd, Flay 1 , ,W Saunders pitched two one-hitters against Brooks and Governor Dummer: Kohusch allowed Belmont llill only three hits and Middlesex four. Iloyt pitched well against Andover and did excellently in relief against St. Sebastian and Groton. Lowell showed the greatest improvement during the season hoth in fielding and hitting. Iloyt, Tilghman, Kohusch, and Brainerd also were hard hitters during the season. Prospects for next season are not too bright as Vaptain-elect Strong, Lowell and Tilghman are the only returning lettermen. Snelling should become a good pitcher, hut catchers and infielders are at a premium. This year saw the development ol' a second squad composed of younger boys under separate coaching and with a full schedule of outside games, providing necessary experience. I want to express my appreciation to Mr. Vveed for his ahle assistance and for taking over the reins during my illness. I couldn't ask for hctter spirit and co- operation than was shown hy the entire squad throughout. the 194-6 season. E.

The first three boats have come up against a sum of fifteen crews and have been successful in their races with ten of them, thus establishing a fairly good record for themselves. The Boat Club has been fortunate in many other ways as well. For instance, the First Boat this year rowed in a brand new Poeoek shell. which hadn't been bought during the war because of reasons of finance and trans- portation. Another blessing that came to the crew this year was the ability to buy new materials for the upkeep of the shells. In turn, this enabled seven or eight shells to row in the water each day, as compared to the four that rowed last year. As you can see, this gave each boat that much more time to practice and develop, indeed a great factor in produc- ing good crews. So it was with these fortunate improvements that the 1946 crew faced its season with high hopes of many a victory, and I think I can safely say that their hopes were not in vain. The first opponent to face St. lVIark's was Shrewsbury lligh School, and the end of that afternoon proved to be favorable to both schools as it gave Shrewsbury the First Boat race, but St. Markis took the laurels in the Second Boat race. The next race turned out to be rather dis- asterous for the Blue and White when they put up three boats against Pomfret School from Connecticut. The Fates were very favorable to the latter that day, as they took all three races, and the outlook didn't look very promising after that afternoon. However, next week, St. Mark's took two out of three races ag- ainst Middlesex, and the only mar in the event was that the First Boat again lost. But from then on, the oarsmen from the S.M.B.C. didn't lose a race. A race on the Charles River in Cambridge showed St. Mark's to be superior to both Noble Sz Greenough and Brooks. Both boats swept the river in this triangle regatta, and with one more race in the season, they were very eager to continue their good work. And indeed they did, as in the following race the first two boats de- feated two crews from Belmont Hill school. Thus was the season of this yearis crew, stated very briefly as you can see. The Second Boat, with Charlie Hoffman at the stroke position, is to be heartily congratulated for its impressive record, putting up a score of live wins to only one loss. Then the First Boat, too, deserves a great deal of credit for its extraordinary improvement during the season. They had good reason to wish to race some of their former opponents again. In this boat, Patterson held the bow position, and in front of him sat Bradlee, a very depend- able oar. Then, at three, Carter pulled a strong oar, and was a valuable member of the boat. Captain Winslow stroked this boat, and is to be congratulated on his excellent work in leadership during the year. There isn't enough that can be said in praise of Mr. Lanier for his excellent job of coaching this year. Assisting him were Mr. Phelps and Mr. Winslow, also deserv- ing a great deal of thanks. Then, too, Mike Freeman is to be congratulated for his expert work throughout the season as manager, and for his skill in keeping the boat club in shape. Next year's season can look forward to the return of Dixon, this year's bow in the Second Boat, and the captain-elect. Rowing with him, there will be many others with a fair amount of experience behind them. We wish them all the luck in the world. S. D. W. THE SQUAD Harder, G., Zisette, Fowler, liud., Pepper Mr. Howarth, Bundy Ulanagerj, Holder, de Coen, Armstrong, Lobdell, Baker, Mr. Sawyer Pendill, Rosenkrantz, Chisolm, Kobuseh Qfapiainj, Brainerd, Southgate Basketball VVQ have had for the last twenty years a semblance of a basketball team. Start- ing in the late twenties, games were very few and on an informal basis. The last few years we have, however, played a regular schedule. competing with schools which have had basketball as a major sport. Against them we have held our own. VVith our field house, in which we have a floor second to none, with the revived interest in basketball in New England colleges and private schools, it seems reasonable to assume that the sport is of sufficient prominence and importance in school affairs to merit the position of a major sport at St. Mark's. Basketball was given this position by Mr. Brewster at the close of the winter term. In addition to the afore-mentioned factors, the sport offers the opportunity for the participation of a group of boys who would not be otherwise engaged during the winter term. An integral and vital factor in the education of boys is to have them take part in organized ath- letics as much as possible. The team loyalties, the discipline, and the sense of belonging to a group endeavor are fruits of our athletic squads, and we should offer as many boys as possible the benefits of our athletic set-up. The moot question has been: Can the school support both hockey and basketball? I feel certain that it can, and as long as I am coaching basketball, hockey will be allowed to dictate who will play basketball in the lower forms at least. The season this year was most success- ful. The team, five seniors who worked as a unit for two years, showed consistently good teamwork and generated a powerful scoring punch. We won nine games and lost three, playing against some leading prep school teams and remaining unde- feated until our string was snapped by an excellent Exeter aggregation. Victories over strong teams from Milton, Dean Academy, and Pomfret highlighted our schedule. Throughout the season the team was sparked by Captain Dick Kobuseh, a brilliant player and a cool and efficient leader. To him must be given a large measure of praise for the squad's success. To Captain Kobuseh and the members of this year's squad, the best we have had, I offer my congratulations for their excellent season and thanks for their whole-hearted co-operation. To Captain Southgate and next year's squad goes the hope that we can follow their superlative example. R. D.

Although the few games played were all victories for the N.P.S., the marked lack of competition was disap- pointing. The overwhelming strength of our line, with Stearns, Fay, Saunders, Hoffman, and Abbot alternating, was effectively proven in our first game as we shut out the third squad, 6 to 0. As expected, we took a weak second squad in a breeze, 8 to 1, and I should like at this opportunity to deny our opponents' argument that they would have been victorious if their full team had played, we would have won even if they had had a goalie. The high point of the second squad game was the outstanding defensework of two old veterans, Lawrence and Patterson. VVe also discovered that our water boy, Williztm Clay, could skate, and he was of some use for the rest of the season, though a tendency to solo hampered his performance. A return match with the third squad Cwhose star, Mr. King, a potentially brilliant lineman, turned out to be their coaehj, saw us once more return the victors. Then injuries and bad luck dogged us. VVe lost a good defenseman to the varsity, and the basketball team refused our challenge, due to racial feeling against our dusky trainer and coach. At this time an outstanding example of courage was displayed by Co-Captain Stearns, who played through several practices with a broken neck. Our game with Farmington, due to the transportation tieup, had to be cancelled. The greatest disappointment, however, came when our arch-rivals, the faculty, still shaken from last year's defeat, refused to play. In conclusion I should like to thank Manager Roosevelt, Coach Taber, Train- er Detwiler, and playing-manager Hoyt, whose untiring efforts and coolly efficient leadership stood as a shining example to us.

This, I feel, was a step in the right direction. Amateur theatricals provide a form of character building found in no other school activity. It is team spirit, but it is more than that-it is linked up with the desire to create. In rehearsing for the musical comedy, especially, the esprit de corps that re- sulted from working together as a group and watching scenes grow before one's eyes was something unbelievable. No- where have I seen sacrifices performed so willingly, and the desire to work so strong. St. Mark's would do well to increase her dramatic turnover. Talent, as things stand, is at a low ebb, simply because there is not the opportunity to discover it. Unfortunately, at this level, talent can easily pass unknown to everyone, including the owner. In any case, and by any plan that is feasible - possibly by doing several one- act plays a year, instead of two long ones - I strongly believe that dramatics in St.'Mark's ought to play a larger part as an extra-curricular activity, not only because of the training they give in being at ease before a large number of people, but because they prove undeniably that the results of people working together for a common goal far exceed the sum of their individual abilities, and, to succeed in life, it is the ability to work in a group, rather than individual prowess, which is important. It would be hard to sum up the tremen- dous debt which the Dramatic Club owes to Mr. and Mrs. French. Their enthusi- asm, skill, and encouragement have been largely responsible for the success of their performances, we will miss them both. P.D.

Dick Sixth Form Dance As February 15 drew near, the final preparations for entertaining the girls were rushed to completion. The sixth form room was eagerly transformed into a tastefully decorated lounge, filled with multi-colored easy chairs and pillows, and the last frantic telephone calls went out in search for girls to come with the inevitable group of jilted sixth formers. At last the girls arrived on a cold, windy Friday afternoon to start the week-end we had been looking forward to from the start of our school careers. The girls were quickly shown to their quarters at the various masters' houses and then flocked back to school to enjoy a delicious buffet supper in the headmaster's wing. Already a rosy glow was surrounding most of the couples, and, a little regretfully, we took our girls over to the old gym and the wait- ing arms of the rest of the school. The lights were appropriately low, and colored spot-lights alternately highlighted and obscured the dance floor with tactful discrimination. Midnight tolled the cur- few and the couples separated to catch some sleep. Saturday dawned crisp and clear, and after a hearty breakfast we all Went down to the pond to skate and watch the hockey team perform Hatteringly in its annually victorious style. A buffet lunch, perfectly prepared by Miss Capen and by Mesdames French, Weed, Lanier, and Fine, which was served in the Choate House, proved highly enjoyable. The afternoon saw a variety of basketball and hockey, singing in the Choate House, and dancing in the sixth form room. The evening chapel service was transformed by welcome beauty and afterwards the girls adjourned to dress for dinner. A dinner dance was held in the main dining room at 8:00 p.m. with fourth and fifth form stags attending after dinner. Ken Reeves and his Orchestra supplied sweet melodies, and the girls were the most attractive we can remember at any dance, the atmosphere was perfect and the strains of Good Night Ladies were heard mournfully at one-thirty. The faculty and their Wives turned out in large numbers and added a serious tone of formality and conviviality. A beautiful full moon was available for any couples brave enough to face the cold, but most of us had a few refresh- ments and went into the sixth form room to snatch what we could from the hours so rapidly slipping away. The time to retire came all too soon, and the girls were rushed to bed. Sunday morning provided welcome breakfast and was followed by a leisurely stroll down to church in warm, spring- like weather. The service was appropri- ately well done and the couples walked slowly back to school. In what seemed like a minute the buses had arrived, and the last goodbyes were over, and we wandered back into the sixth form room to try to recapture the atmosphere that was now so incomplete. We would like to express our apprecia- tion of all the time and effort put into the week-end program and to thank Mrs. Brewster for being the perfect hostessg Mr. Brewster for his fatherly advice, Mrs. Chisolm, Mrs. Bradlee, and Miss Taber, for their tact and thoughtfulness as chaperonsg Miss Capen and Mr. Fine for their many hours of careful planningg the faculty wives for their generous hos- pitality to the girls, and the staff of the school whose wholehearted cooperation made the dance possible. The weekend sped by far too quickly, but the memory will remain as a bright page in our recol- lections of school. L.W.C. The Dance Couples Edward Abbot-hliss Carol Collier. Lowell, Mass.

For twenty-five years the camp has been run by the school for the benefit of boys from the slums of Boston and New York. Up to the outbreak of the war, it was the custom for shack counsellors to be selected from the most capable appli- cants in the Fifth Form. The permanent council, in whose hands lic the direction of all camp activities, consisted of gradu- ates. Thus was provided the experience and maturity necessary for the smooth functioning of the camp. The draft brought about a radical change from tradition when veteran counsellors of college age and over could not be had, and the burden of keeping the camp running fell to the Sixth, Fifth, Fourth, and even Third Forms. Even with these boys the war interfered, for many of them had to accelerate or obtain paying jobs during the summer months, and no one eighteen or over could be counted on definitely. The permanent staff could no longer be made up of men with years of Brantwood experienceg temporaries were placed on the same level as permanents, and the two posi- tions were frequently interchanged. The natural result was that there should be a let-down in efficiency due to the influx of younger counsellors. It is impossible to expect the same amount of maturity, responsibility, and leadership in a fifteen or sixteen-year old counsellor as in one who is eighteen or twenty. Here Brantwood was tremendously for- tunate in being able to retain Charles Cook, ,36, as director for the seasons of ,44 and '4-5. A veteran of eleven camp sum- mers, Mr. Cook had previously held posi- tions as Athletic Director, Commissary, and Assistant Director. Only through his patience and forbearance was the camp able to continue through the last two years. Under his supervision the problems of gas and food rationing, repairs, and supplies were solved with a minimum of iiiconvciiic-licc. llis vxzunplc was such as to inspirc the Oounsvllors unxl boys ulikv with cnthusinsm and intcrvst, ztncl with ai czunp spirit which wont :L long way towzml ovcrc-olning thc liauiflicaps unclcr which tho cnnip was run.
