It was the first inning of the Hrst game in the 1957 season. The opposing pitcher sneered down upon the 5' 4- , tan-colored, blonde-haired Middle Schooler. When that easily thrown baseball left Tony Bryan's bat, the U. S. launched the first earth satellite. a fact which was recorded only by the 1-0 scoreboard. Simply to extol nMr. CARE accomplishments as wing in soccer or executor of perfect parallel Christies on the slopes of Mammoth Mountain would be to miss ilu- point that this Sclmol Prefect is basically an artist. He plays that most sensitive of instruments-the oboe: he thinks deep thoughts and then writes about them in poems. The short man works hard. Not only will Thacher's athletic squads miss the assurance of Tony's quiet smile. lrul llic whole School will rarely again find such an all-round sportsman.

'c0h, nothingf, is the usual answer, but after the routine amount of coaxing, we find that John has hidden two or three large trophies and eight or nine ribbons under his coat. John and his steed Snowball have gained the reputation of being consistent point-getters in both School and outside horse shows. John Workday Trailbuilder Case is also the President of the Pack and Saddle Club, but his fame is not one-sided, for Snowball's', feats on the soccer and baseball fields are also well-known, and his masterpieces in painting and writing for the Notes must not pass by uncelebrated. In short, where there is activity, you will find Case. The fact that ,Iohn's mare, Snowball, is completely brown, gives us a good clue to his character. He is, first and foremost, an individualist and has many staunch supporters because of it. John always has the courage, ingenuity, and patience to stand by his decisions, ideas, and desires Whether he is advising a lowly smut, convincing Mr. Chase that the administration's point of View is wrong, or debating, a pipe clamped firmly in the corner of his mouth, with 112 Californians about the virtues of Arizona. You can be sure that he will either win, which is most likely, or die with his boots on. ' Here is one Tucsoner who may proudly carve another notch in the butt- of his gun for his four years at Thacher. ' 1 1-y. w.'!'
