Our school, including faculty and students, is exceedingly active, day by day par- ticipating in events which make up for us, at least, the thrilling record of our school year. The 1955 Res Gestae staff has sensed the sim- ilarity between the energetic daily life of Stony Brook and the more turbulent newspaper world. This resemblance has provided the nucleus of a new theme. Each page which separates the following large sections portrays the portion of the newspaper world corresponding to that particular sector of our school activity and personnel. The faculty are represented by the managing editors, the seniors by reporters, and the underclassmen by techni- cians. Our sports pages, activity pages, and ad pages are like those found in the daily newspaper. So here then recorded in full is the reporter's view of the school year 1954-55.

FRANK E. CAEBELEIN Headmaster The headmaster of any school has to be a quide for everyone. To us at Stony Brook, Dr. Gaeb- elein is this, and yet he is much more. This figure with the long stride and the omnipresent Smokey is almost a land mark on our campus. He exemplifies our Lord's words, Search the Scriptures, for his painstaking lectures on God's Word both to his Bible class and in his weekday chapel service. Although there are few of us who see him at prayer, its power is felt by all. To the class of l955, Dr. Gaebelein will always remain an example in mountain climbing. a.u1- .1 , ,il 1 All ltuffv Dr. Gaebclcin at piano

MNGFTHEYER The l955 Res Gestae stall recognizes that its deep appreciation of the Stony Brook School is based on its high regard for the school's faculty. This year we dedicate the yearbook to one of the faculty, who has been most helpful in our development, and accordingly we nominate him as Stony Brook's Man of the Year. With sincere pride we present him for many reasons. Not only has he been an in- valuable asset to Stony Brook for years, but also we will remember him for his interest- ing English classes. Nor will we forget the sobering and the light-hearted moments there. However, above all else we will re- member him because he has been more than a teacher and an advisor. He has always been a real friend inside and outside the classroom. Therefore we respectfully pre- sent John Warren Hershey as Man uf the Year.
