We hope that in future years this edition will serve as a pictorial and written record for both Under- formers and Sixth Formers. But most of all, this Dial is a lasting memento for the mem- bers in the Class of 1954. ln it is a record of the years they have spent Working their way up through the ranks until finally, they reached that pinnacle of success at The Hill, the Sixth Form and graduation. .J Juuaycamzgmg fo-6.4.

Our voices raise up one almighty e ee houts of glee We never notice in our 5 who rejoice as loud as we The masters . . . if y TO THE CLASS OF 1954 As you prepare to leave The Hill, you will find yourselves equipped with a good deal of factual knowledge, with experi- ence in the art of study, and with an immediate goal. Perhaps the main difference between life at a preparatory school and life in college is that an immediate goal will no longer be enough. If your college years are to prove as successful as you and your parents deserve, you must at this point set your sights on an objective broader and more distant than any you may pre- viously have contemplated. Quite clearly, our part in planning your lives is over, the plan is now in your hands. This transition, abrupt as it always is, inevitably raises prob- lems. Through knowing you for two years, I feel that you are equipped to face such problems realistically, honestly, and cou- rageously. And although I have said that our part in planning your lives is over, our interest in you will always continue. I have a personal belief in each one of you, and I feel sure that this trust is not misplaced. EDWARD T. HALL MR. EDWARD T.

Sixth form History FIVE years ago our fathers brought forth on this school a new form, con- ceived in genius and dedicated to the proposition of creating as much chaos as possible. Only four of the original fifteen boys managed to hang on through the five years. These were playb0y', Ted Gary, Pottstown's', finest Iake Kessler, Pete Perine, and Pete Stifel. Other notables in this class were Hugh Robertson, Moe Mattas, and Dick Walling Qwho was later to make history in Main the next yearj. The big event in this year was the fire in Memorial Hall fthe masters still wonder if the notorious second form was completely innocent in that con- flagrationj. There were also other events of varied interest. ln September of 1950, The Cottage and Main became infested with 46 more up and coming members of the class of '54, Among the additions that were later to distinguish themselves on the athletic Held were Bob Bitting, Bob Bowen, Tony Codding, 'iRed,' Hardin, Walt Levering, Ken Merlin, and Dave Yarington, while Bill Andrews became the only third former to win his varsity letter that year, earn- ing that coveted possession in soccer. Several members of our class be- gan to assert themselves as future leaders of the school. Among these were prexy Bill Andrews, Bob Bowen, Tony Codding, and the brothers Holzman. History making incidents in this year included such matters as the floor versus floor water battles in the Spring Term in the hallowed halls of the Cottage, with the second Hoor Hnally calling for a truce on the grounds that the third had an unfair advantage: that of position. Besides Pit-Pati' was getting wise, and even Perry was beginning to crack down. In Main were Mattas, Gary, Walling, MR. ARTHUR F. IACKSON, Advisor and SCVCI'21l OthCI'S Wl'1O WCIC 1361'- 34 THE DIAL 1954 ennially adding to the confusion. By the way, fellows, who did throw the battery through the roof of the police car on High Street? And who in the Cottage will forget the time Iohn Zimmer Qwearing formal no lessj was bombed with a soft boiled egg from the third floor by person or persons unknown. In the Fall of IQSI the members of the class of 754 were sent to the Middle School, to challenge the com- bined genius of Messrs. Donovan, Cross, Eddy, Swift, and Bender. Somebody had apparently decided that the form average needed a shot in the arm, for we were joined that year by such renowned Hbrainsi' as H3ffY Minefs I0hf1 Gfaebflef, TOIU WILLIABI N. ANDREWS, IR., Plfsfdent Chastain, and Ted Ames. More ath- letes arrived in the persons of Marshall Greer, Bob Mcllldowney, HSchwantz Merkelbach, Zeus Safford, and c'Reb', Stoever. Fred Waring was another new addition and the Titans were organized, later to reach their peak in 1954. Several occurrences highlighted the fourth form year of the class of ,54. duPont's bed was regularly being uflippedn in retaliation to the embargo on his food, while over on 3 West, Keefer was ofttimes absent from bed check. But Sir, I just had to find out where the fire was. Then there was the time that Mark Miller yelled uncomplimentary remarks out the third Hoor win- dow at the headmaster and was lucky to get off with 15. Mark was a new boy and his brother had forgotten to tell him that Mr. Wendell was a former Olympic track star. On the same hall Phil Livingston had a little difficulty keeping roommates and Mr. Bender was beginning to wonder what kind of inliuence Phil was having on these innocents. Water fights were prevalent, culminating with the raid on the suite of Iohn Pearson and Louis Klauder, and when Mr. Swift came up to get help for the ensuing cleanup it seemed that everybody was peacefully asleep. And let us not forget the glorious stickball games that had to be played in the rain because of the shortage of sunshine that year. That year? 35 THE DIAL 1954 In 1952 the class of ,54 made a mass invasion to the flats and the Wendell Dorm respectively. There were many new additions that year also. Among the athletes were Andy Fitch, Pete Iones, Dave Kenny, Dave Reide- nouer, S'Pharoah,, Riordan, Paunch,' Rowley, Cal Thomas, and Chick Wenders. IQ52 was an interesting year for our class in many ways. A new head- master came that year and with him he brought many changes. The old Common Room was torn down and in its place arose Donner Hall, newer and bigger. With no more School T Room A, the cries were Hurrah, no more study hallf, but alas, all they did was stick us down in B. And for the first time, a formal Religion course arrived to plague the fifth and sixth formers. The Fall Term Dance was taken away that year, but in its place came the much more desirable Thanksgiving vacation Cwhich brought immediate outcries from the more somber elements of the NEWS staff who felt that the boys were I1Ot using the vacation wiselynj. Despite these outcries, how- ever, the five-day recess was a huge success, and was repeated the next year with no outward repercussions. There were several incidents worthy of mention that year. The M.P.W. gambling syndicate was formed in the Fall Term and flourished for almost two weeks before it was subsequently broken up by the Wendell Dorm Vice Squad under the leadership of Mr. Mercer. But Sir, we were just playing for the fun of it. And for a while, M.P.W. boasted of more demerits than the rest of the school put together. And speaking of gambling, Hey Burko, how much did you say you lost on the election?', In the Spring Term, we continued our stickball games in the rain, there being even more of that commodity this year than in the last. And what master will forget the firecracker contests that M.P.W. and the Flats had into the wee hours. Iudgments were made on loudness, brilliance, and WALLACE l'IOLZlX1AN, Vfl't'-PI'C'5l'dEl1l l THE DIAL 1954 quantity. Needless to say, sleep was a thing of the past during these battles. The class of '54 took over the various organizations in the Spring Term of 1953, and Catlin and Codding were named to the chairmanships of the News and the Dial respectively, while the Record was handled by Harry Iohnston. In the Fall of 1953, the class of ,54 came trooping back to school, sporting suntans and bow ties. The day had arrived. We were now Sixth Formers. Our first official duty Qafter polishing up our D.S.A. padsj was to select a Sixth Form president and committee. When the final vote was tallied Bill Andrews became presidentg Wallace Holzman, vice presidentg Bob Bowen, secretaryg and Fred Waring, treasurer. The elected committee consisted of Tony Codding, Harry Iohnston, Ted Ames and Bob McEldowney, while the committeeman-at-large was Skip Iudd. Our thoughts immediately shifted to the colleges of our choice, and most of the class settled down to some serious work. Lawrenceville weekend came and the football team emerged with an undefeated season, while tying a strong Lawrenceville aggregation. Following that, most of the class adjourned to Princeton or New York for a well- deserved weekend and the cry often heard around the campus preceding 1 the weekend was f'Don't forget- section fifteen between the halves. Before we knew it, exams were upon us and the first leg of the last year had already slipped by. In the Winter Term we were graced with the presence of I4O mem- bers of the fair sex for one cherished weekend and while we were still re- covering from the shock, Iago and his Sixth Form English notebook were hanging over our heads like the well-known Sword of Damocles. The midnight oil began to burn more frequently and the infirmary started doing a land office business. s UP OH the third Hoof of the Hats ROBERT N.

Down on the second floor, a portion of the bulletin board was graciously donated by Mr. Revell to the fight club. Commissioners Andrews and Thomas reported great attendance on Wediiesclay and Friday nights climaxed by the De- marco-Carter match. By the way, Ken, what did you do with the 3170? Towards the end of the term, the 'cfifth floor purgel' got under way with Messrs. Iackson and Evans netting several coffee pots, hot plates, and other items of interest. Through it all we managed to survive QGod only knows howj and Spring Vacation was upon us. The migrations to Florida, Bermuda, and Hawaii Qhow was it, Ted?j were plentiful and we faced the Spring Term with alacrity. The Glorious Spring Term was filled with such delights as The Sixth Form Dance, stickball on the Quad, lovely weather, white bucks to dinner, and all the multitude of privileges that years of hard work have bestowed upon us.

Under the guidance of Mr. Iackman and Mr. Mercer, the form has made an enviable record in the scholastic, athletic, and extra-curricular fields, one which cer- tainly qualifies it for the positions of responsibility which it will assume next year. The officers for the Fall Term, elected by the old boys shortly after the beginning of school, were Ted Price, President, Dave Abernethy, Vice- President 5 and Bill Markle, Secretary-Treasurer. These three plus two com- mitteemen from Wendell Dormitory, Ioe Biddle and Bruce Sprague, repre- sented the form in the Student Council, a group entering its second year of existence at the school. Other boys on the Fifth Form Committee were Tom Holbrook, Mike Wilson, Tom Iohn- ston, Bruce Westcott, Austin Hoyt, Dan Fawcett, and Corky Smith. Dur- ing the Winter Term, elections for class officers were again held, with Tom Iohnston, Ted Price, and Dave Abernethy taking over respective po- sitions as President, Vice-President, and Secretary-Treasurer. Wendell Dormitory committeernen for this term were Ed Iahncke, Iohn Gibbs, Dave Wakeman, Ioe Biddle, Nick Knerr, and Dan Fawcett, while Graeme MacLetchie, Bill Markle, and Mike Wilson completed the group from the Flats. This commit- tee was quite active during the year, bringing such problems as the new boy hat and class ring to the atten- tion of the Council. g MR. D. H. MERCER AND The Fifth Form had the largest MR,K,V,1ACKM,,N,,4dZ,f50,', number of boys on the Honor Roll, II3 THE DIAL 1954 and the form average was generally above that of the school. Consistently on this list were Head of School Dave Abernethy, Ed Lienhard, lim Caprio, Austin Hoyt, Iohn Fowler, Sam Hinkle, and Leon Harbold. The versatility of the form was also displayed in all of the sports activities of the school. Iim Fox, elected to captain next year's football squad, Dave Lennox, Bruce Sprague, and Skip Taylor helped the team to maintain its undefeated record. In soccer, several Fifth Formers excelled as regular members of the starting team. Captain-elect Bob Hydeman, Reg Doherty, Gene Grace, Irv Brooks, and Howard Butcher promise to give next year's soccer squad both depth and experience. Clay Lindus, a consistently fine performer on the cross country team, was elected to captain that sport for the coming year. In wrestling, Leon Harbold captained the team and maintained an un- defeated record throughout the season, Teb Feroe and Kuhrt Wieneke also turned in fine performances. Outstanding swimmers were Lawlor Reck, Iack Gorby, Ted Gregory, Mike Westcott, Kim Iaycox, and Greame Mac- Letchie, while Nick Knerr and Bruce Sprague were consistent scorers for the varsity basketball team. Prominent Fifth Formers on this year's revital- ized hockey squad were Austin Hoyt and Iim Fox. Bill Markle, Dick Romig, and Clay Lindus seem assured of positions on varsity track. Bob Hydeman, Leon Harbold, Karl Kowalski, Alex Barto, and lim Fox are trying for places on the baseball squad, and Ioe Turner and Sam Hinkle are hopefuls for varsity tennis. In the field of extra-curricular activities, the form was not wanting in adequate participation. Howard Butcher assumed chairmanship of The Rec- ord after a year as co-chairman. Dave Abernethy and Tom Iohnston were elected co-chairmen of The News. P iiii tttii T DT Debating clubs were composed primarily of Fifth Formers, Colgate Cups being won by Norton and Abernethy. Price was elected chairman of the Press Club, with the position of Editor of the Dial going to Austin Hoyt. The success of any individual class depends largely upon its ability to take a position of leadership in the various activities of school life. The Fifth Form has shown that it does possess the needed leadership in these different activi- ties to assume the tasks which lie ahead of it in the year to come.

Advised by Mr. Cross, it is composed of I25 boys and has dis- tinguished itself especially in athletics and scholastics. Officers for the Fall Term were Bill Storm, Roger Steffens, and Neil Ulman, while Ulman, Ieff Freeman, and Hugh Dyer assumed top posts for the Winter Term, repre- senting the form in the Student Council. Dyer, Irving LaValle, Bob Hodges, Lew Lehrman, and Paul Capron led the form in scholastic work, while Ulman assumed positions on the board of the Record and News. Debaters were Keyser, Dyer, and Robson. In the Held of sports, the form exhibited an unusual number of players on varsity sports. Storm, Sam Horner, Iohn Winn, Charlie Towle, Iack Tucker and Roger Steffens played for the undefeated varsity football squad and prom- ise to give great depth in the next two years. Phil Iessup was on varsity soccer, while Ross Gilbert and Hor- ner made positions on the swimming squad. Iohn LeBourgeois, Storm, and Bill McClung swam well for the IV team. Tucker and Winn were con- sistent varsity wrestlers. Prominent hockey players were Gray Perkins, Ulman, and Spencer, Dave Stevens and Lehrman played IV basketball. Mr. Cross, in his first year as ad- viser, feels that the Fourth Form looks good in all the fields of school life. It should continue to play its already prominent part in these vari- ous activities, increasing in influence as it enters its Fifth Form year next fall. MR. DONALD H.

Mr. Richard is in charge of the Third Formers in the Cottage, while Mr. Worthington heads the Third Formers in Main. The Second Formers in Hillside are un- der the advisorship of Mr. Davis. Boys in both forms are making their contributions to the school by participating in various sports, and by taking part in the extra-curricular activities. Lester Freed served as President of the Second Form, and represented his Form on the Student Council. Freed, Whiteley, and Schwiers took the scho- lastic honors for the year. Hoffer, Midgely, and Moore represented the Form on the wrestling mats, while Hutton and. Freed were among the top swimmers. Ed Nobbe served as President of ' the Third Form, while Lewis Wiley held the position of Vice-President. The Form was well represented on the athletic fields. Wiley, Hayne, Mc- Clory, Waxman, Porter, Merkelbach, and Harris were among the top foot- ball players in the Fall, while Gordon Simmonds played well on the soccer field. In the Winter Term, Brown, Nobbe, and Oliver were on the Iunior Swimming Team, Graves and Wiley were the top wrestlers in the Form. Dick Merkelbach was one of the mainstays on the Iunior Basketball Team. McClory played on the Iunior Varsity Hockey Team.

The new coach, Mr. F. Bissell, aided by Messrs. Iackson and Reydel, had only two weeks in which to form a new team and teach it the split-T formation. The returning lettermen were Capt. Pete Iones, Dave Riordan, Dave Yarington, lim Fox, Walt Levering, Hank Stoever, and Bob Bitting. These boys had a tough schedule ahead of them, consisting of Perkiomen Prep, Woodberry Forest School, Williamson Trade School, Mercersburg Academy, P.M.C. Prep, Blair Academy, Peddie School, and finally Lawrenceville. With these prospects in mind Coach Bissell told the school at the first rally that the team might not win all the time, but that it would be the fightin'est team we had seen in a long time. And so it was. In the Hrst game of the season The Hill eleven proved that it had plenty of spirit by beating Perkiomen 7-6. Although Perkiomen took an early lead in the Hrst quarter, The Hill refused to quit, and in the second quarter marched to the Perkiomen 32 yard line from which Steve Pyle connected to Dave Yarington for the sole Hill T.D. Dave Riordan put The Hill ahead with his conversion, and the score remained 7-6 for the rest of the game. In the second game of the season The Hill defeated Woodberry Forest by a score of 13-7. As in the first game they had to come from behind, for Wood- berry held a 7-0 lead at half time. In the third quarter Pyle passed to Lever- ing via Davidson for one T.D., and took the ball himself for the other score. Riordan converted on his second attempt, to clinch the game for The Hill. Williamson Trade School was the third victim by a margin of 31-O. Only seven points ahead, the Hill gridders roared back in the second half as Walt Levering and Rufe Salford each made two touchdowns. Dave Reidenouer scored the final tally for The Hill. At its Hrst away game the team defeated Mercersburg Academy by a score of 7-o, thus running the won-lost record to four-zero. This game was a battle of defenses, with The Hill keeping in Mercersburg territory the whole second half without being able to score. However, Captain Iones I25 THE DIAL 1954 took the ball on the first play of the second quarter and ran twenty-Hve yards for Hill's lone touchdown. Dave Riordan made the final point with his conversion. The Hill defeated Pennsylvania Military Prep in its fourth game on Dell Field. Pete Iones broke the ice with a spectacular 38 yard run. Horner, Bit- ting, and Peabody scored the other T.D.'s as The Hill had three other touchdowns called back in a game in which penalties were prevalent. In their sixth win The Hill edged Blair Academy by a score of 27-20. Dave Reidenouer, the high scorer of the game, passed to Riordan in the first quarter, and with Riordan's conversion the score stood at 7-o. Reidenouer later sneaked over for the second Hill tally, but not before Blair had scored six points. In the second half The Hill scored two quick touchdowns g on the opening kick-off Iones ran 80 yards for one of these. After a kick blocked by Stoever, Reidenouer scored again. The game at this point seemed to be a runaway, but Blair scored twice more to make the final score 27-20. The Peddie game was cancelled because of deep snow. The playing of this game might have made the difference between Hill tying Lawrence- ville and beating them, for Peddie used the same formation as Lawrenceville, the winged-T, against which the team needed experience. In the final game of the season The Hill battled Lawrenceville to a 26-26 tie on Friday, the thirteenth. It was a tense game from start to Hnish and a fine end to an undefeated season. The Red and Black scored first, but Hill came right back when Bob Iron Mann Bitting plowed over from the three yard line, to tie up the score. In the second quarter Ned Langhorne, the L,ville ace, brought the ball down the field to score, making the half-time total 13-6. In the third quarter Steve Pyle threw a pass to Yarington for a T.D., but, lacking Riordan's conversion, we were still behind I3-I2. Later Pyle crossed the goal line, and this time Riordanfs extra point try was suc- cessful. L'ville scored two quick touchdowns which put them ahead 26-19. After a long pass to Davidson which put the Hill on Lawrenceville,s eight yard line, Ken Merlin crashed over, making the score 26-25 favor of the Black and Red. Dave Riordan, in perhaps his most important role of the season, kicked that all-important extra point and The Hill finished its first undefeated season since 1949. 126 i I THE DIAL 1954 VARSITY FOOTBALL LETTERMEN Sldlltllfllgi Pl .

With this tie, the team ended its season with a two won, two tied, and five lost record. Starting the season with only two returning Iettermen, Coaches Morgan and Cowperthwaite did a tremendous job in instructing and inspiring a team that had an overwhelming will to win yet was forced to accept many difficult losses. In its Hrst game a very inexperienced team took the field against a power- ful and polished Princeton Freshman team, and after holding up quite creditably for over half the game, Hill fell apart and ended on the short end of a 4-o score. Captain Bill Andrews was playing with an injured foot suffered in practice but led the team well considering his hndicap. Rudy Wachsman, the Tiger center forward, scored the initial goal for the win- ners in the second quarter, and then the Tigers added one more in the third quarter and two in the fourth. Captain Andrews missed a penalty shot in the third period to stall one of Hill's few scoring chances. This game was a good opener for the team although they were a bit outclassed. The following Saturday, Mercersburg conquered the booters with a 4-I loss, mainly on the strength and skill of a south-of-the-border center-for- ward, Enrique Garcia. Hill showed much improvement over its previous week's performance, but appeared somewhat weak around the opponents, cage where we spent a good part of the game. Time after time we had clear shots at the goal, but were unable to take advantage of the many op- portunities that Mercersburg gave us. Our lone goal came from right-wing Robin Hydeman who booted in a fumble by the goalie. The Lehigh Freshman game, the following Saturday, was almost a re- peat of Mercersburg, inasmuch as we dominated the play and were a con- stant threat to the visitors' nets, yet were unable to score. Moreover, on two of the few occasions that the Frosh had the ball in our territory, they were able to score thus shutting us out 2-o. Ted Ames, however, continued to show great improvement in the nets. 129 THE DIAL 1954 The Girard College game was, perhaps, the most inspiring loss we re- ceived all season, for the simple reason that, after falling behind 3-1 at the end of the half we were able to hold one of the best teams in the Phila- delphia area scoreless in the final two periods. Mike Foster, playing his first game at center-forward, proved to be a shot in the arm to a sluggish line as he booted in our lone goal. A marked improvement was shown in this game and it was evident that before long the team would break into the win column. The Blair game brought Hillls first victory and Blair's first loss as the Blue and Grey triumphed 3-1 on goals by Foster, Andrews, and Price Ies- sup. Iessupls goal came on a mighty 30 yard blast from his center-half slot. The goal tending of Ames in this game was the deciding factor of the game, as twice he made saves on what appeared to be sure goals, and many times saved the day for Hill. Against Peddie, we fought them to a 1-1 tie with Captain Andrews scor- ing Hill's lone tally in the fourth quarter. Hill had a decided disadvantage to make up as Peddie scored in the first thirty seconds of the game. The following week, we played two games, won one and lost the other. We lost to a very strong Penn Frosh team 3-2 with Foster and Andrews again doing the scoring, but then the next Saturday we came back to nose out the Haverford I.V. 2-1. Reg Doherty headed in a corner kick, and Mike Foster scored the clincher. The final game with Lawrenceville probably was the best game played by this team all year. The sarne eleven who started the game played the whole distance and not one of them was a discredit to the school or the team. Captain Andrews scored both of the goals for Hill, but it really was not any one individual who was responsible for the fine play of the Hill team. The entire team deserves credit for doing such a great job in this game and in closing the season on an encouraging note looking towards the future. With a nucleus of six returning letterrnen for next year, Coach Morgan can well expect to see some improvement over this year's record and a great improvement in some of the players. Irv Brooks, Bob McKean, Reg Doherty, Gene Grace, Howie Butcher, and Captain-elect Robin Hyde- man all played very well this year and showed constant improvement throughout the year, and should be invaluable to the team next year. 130 THE DIAL 1954 VARSITY SOCCER LETTERMEN .Slumliug Rfusiox IIXDIXIKN islmuixs uns :mu xi na, 1, w11.l.u1:i4.

K1l!'!'If77g I32 Cross Enuufr SUCCESSFUL SEASON: NEW COACH, THREE WINS, TWO LOSSES THIS yearls cross country team was boosted by three returning lettermen, Captain Tony Codding, Bill Pope and Chuck Landis. Mr. Ioseph Rein- ers took over the head coaching job replacing Mr. Donovan, and Mr. Clif- ford Little, a new master at The Hill, acted as a very capable assistant. The team had five meets on its schedule, but the one with Peddie was cancelled because of snow. At the final outcome The Hill registered three wins against two defeats. Bill Pope ran an excellent number one man and greatly contributed to the wins. Captain Tony Codding held down a fast second position and Clay Lindus captured the third spot. Chuck Landis, Henry Miner, and Garnett Pessel alternated the fourth, fifth, and sixth places. The Hrst meet of the season was with Mercersburg on The Hill's two and a half mile course. Bill Pope took the lead immediately and held it to come in first. Captain Codding finished in third position on the heels of the first Mercersburg runner. Clay Lindus finished in sixth place followed closely by Chuck Landis and George Karr. Garnett Pessel and Henry Miner were helpful in displacing Mercersburg runners as The Hill won 25-33. Boyertown was next on the schedule and The Hill defeated them 19-38. This race was run on a slightly different course due to conflicting schedules. Bill Pope again took first place with Codding taking second. Clay Lindus passed their first man to capture third position. Chuck Landis with his usual fine sprint came in sixth, while Henry Miner took seventh place and Garnett Pessel tenth. The Blair meet, which was run during the half of the football game on Mothers' Weekend, was the team's Hrst defeat by a score of 22-33. Bill Pope turned in his best time of the year, a 12:34, but could only place third. Cod- ding finished in the fifth spot, followed by Lindus. Chuck Landis took ninth position, and Garnett Pessel tenth. The team's final meet was against Lawrenceville on their course, where The Hill lost by the close score of 26-29. Bill Pope again crossed the finish line first, and Tony took the fourth spot. Clay Lindus placed sixth, Henry Miner eighth, and Garnett Pessel tenth. 133 Basketball INEXPERIENCE HAMPERS HOOPSTERSg CLOSE CLASHES LOST IN 1954, The Hill School basketball team had one of its leaner years by winning only five of its fifteen games.

Tyrer, who had only one returning letterman, Captain Dave Reidenouer, to build his team around, did an excellent job and produced a formidable quintet by the end of the season. Tyrer, who is in his first year at Hill, was lucky in having such a fine fioor leader as Captain Reidenouer whose spirit and skill carried the team through many rough spots during the season. It was a green team that Reidenouer led out on to Gillison court in their first game but it was one that never stopped fighting. Besides Reidenouer, the core of the 1954 squad was composed of Dave Yarington, Bruce Sprague, Nick Knerr, Chuck Landis, and Don Marshall. Backing up this group was a contingent of reserves who showed continual improvement throughout the season. They were Bob Holzman, lim Rowley, and Don Merkelbach. After a rough start, this team continued to improve with every game and proved to be rugged competition for most of their opponents. ' On Wednesday, Ianuary 13, in their traditional opener, Hill defeated P.M.C. Prep 59-54. Chuck Landis led the scoring barrage with seventeen points. He was closely followed by Nick Knerr and Dave Yarington who had fourteen and thirteen points, respectively. On Ianuary 16, Hill travelled to Mercersburg where they met a strong and experienced team which proved to be too much for them as they went down to defeat 62-58. Dave Yaring- ton scored nineteen points for a losing cause. Tyrer was having a lot of trouble finding a winning combination and consequently Hill lost its next three games. On Ianuary 20, Stevens Trade School took Hill 74-56. Yarington and Landis led the scoring with eighteen and seventeen points, respectively. That Saturday, Hill, weakened by the loss of Reidenouer, fell easy prey to Abington High School, 59-31. Landis took the scoring honors with seventeen points. Germantown Academy followed suit as they swamped Hill 67-55. With these bitter experiences under their belt, the basketball team began to hit its stride as it downed Haverford 135 THE DIAL 1954 Academy 48-36. Yarington was high point man with thirteen points. On February 3, Hill won its second straight game by defeating Temple Uni- versity High School 55-44. Reidenouer, who was still hampered by a bad knee, took the scoring honors with eighteen points. Dark days overtook Hill for the second time as they embarked upon another three game losing streak. The first of these losses was to Peddie who edged Hill 47-42. Reidenouer again led the scoring with nineteen points. Perkiomen School continued to make life miserable for Hill by eking out a 56-52 win. Landis scored fourteen points. The following Saturday, a strong Princeton Freshman Team romped over Hill by a 62-41 score. Reidenouer, again fulfilling the role of high scorer, tallied ten points. Hill returned to the win column the following Saturday by defeating Williamson Trade School 52-43. Reidenouer continued his high scoring by accounting for six- teen points. February 24 saw Hill continue its winning ways by defeating Penn. State Center 53-50. Reidenouer and Sprague were leading scorers with twenty and twelve points, respectively. On Saturday, February 27, Lawrenceville travelled to Gillison court and downed Hill 47-46 in a thrilling contest. Hill led throughout the game after having jumped out to a quick lead. With seconds left in the game, Monroe, a Lawrenceville guard sank a push shot to send Lawrenceville into the lead for this first time but it was enough to win the game as Landis's last desperation shot missed. Nick Knerr scored fourteen points for the losers. The following week, with Reidenouer out because of an illness, the Pennsyl- vania Freshmen rolled over Hill 59-35. Hill closed out the season on March 6 as they lost to Girard College 51-47. Knerr, Sprague, and Landis each had thirteen points. Despite their poor record at the end of the season, the basketball team showed a competitive spirit which equalled and often excelled that of their opponents. Inexperience proved to be their worst enemy as they lost some close games in the closing minutes of play because of many careless errors. Tyrer did an excellent job in this his first year at the Hill and will have two of this year,s regulars, Bruce Sprague and Nick Knerr back to help him again next year. The 1954 Basketball team will go down in Hill School history as a fight- ing team which was many times outclassed but never outfought. 136 THE DIAL 1954 VARSITY BASKETBALL LETTERMEN Slfllldillgf SPR UF MARSHALL, YARINIGTOX, LANDIS.

The team downed Upper Darby, Stevens Trade, Lower Merion, Abington, Mercersburg, West Chester Freshmen, Lawrenceville, and the Penn Frosh while losing only to unde- feated Mepham. Both Leon Harbold, 115, and Andy Fitch were undefeated as Mark Miller, 137, and Ion Iaspan, 105, were defeated once. The returning lettermen were Fitch and Captain Harbold, up from last year's Iunior Varsity were Iaspan, Frank Tokioka and Kuhrt Wieneke 130, Miller, Melvin Feroe 147, Iack Tucker and Bob Schrader 157, Henry Stoever 167, and Dave Lennox 177, with new-boy Iohn Wynne at heavyweight. In a practice meet before Christmas, Hill defeated Perkiomen Prep 34-11. Fitch and Stoever pinned as Harbold, Tokioka, Miller, Schrader and Towle decisioned. The Blue and Gray got off on the right foot as the official season began by downing Upper Darby 25-Q. Iaspan, Harbold, Fitch, Wieneke, Miller and Stoever registered decisions while F eroe pinned in the second period. Against Stevens Trade the Hill won by virtue of a default 22-17. Feroe, Harbold and Fitch had falls to run the score to 20-15. Then Lennox wrestled to a draw in the crucial bout of the afternoon to give the Hill the needed points. This year the matmen crushed Lower Merion High School by a score of 31-7 to avenge last year,s defeat. The three pins by Iaspan, Miller and Feroe highlighted the afternoon. Stoever, Iones and Harbold almost pinned while Tokioka won a close decision, and Schrader drew. On the following Saturday the grapplers whipped a mediocre Abington High aggregation 32-6. Again there were three pins, two coming in the upper, and two in the lower weights, as Lennox, Stoever, Tokioka and Iaspan showed the lights to four of the opponents. Harbold, Fitch, Miller, Feroe and Iones compiled decisions to send the whipped aggregation home. Away at Mercersburg Academy, Hill posted a hard-earned victory of 22-9. Harbold, Fitch, Miller, Feroe, Wyniie and Lennox, who, after almost being 139 THE DIAL 1954 pinned himself, pinned his man, posted decisive victories and maintained Hillls undefeated string. The next week The Hill was host to Mepham High who handed them their sole defeat of the season with a score of 23-9. In the lower weights Harbold, Fitch and Miller put the Hill ahead until Iones dislocated his shoulder and lost the match by a default. Mepham went on to win the four remaining weights. The grapplers bounced back the next week by mangling West Chester Frosh 25-3. Lennox and Whitaker pinned and Fitch, Tokioka, Miller, Tucker and Wynne all decisioned to give the Hill a smashing victory. Against their traditional foe, Lawrenceville, the Hill continued the yearly ritual of beating the New Ierseyans hy the slate of 22-12. Harbold and Tokioka were the only two Blue and Gray winners who were able to pin 5 Iaspan, Fitch, Miller and Feroe had to be content with decisions. In the final match of the year the matmen ended on an optimistic note against the Penn Freshmen 27-3.

Pennsylvania 3 141 Swimming CAPTAIN GREER SETS RECORD, LEADS GREEN TEAM THROUGH EXCELLENT SEASON COACHED very ably by Mr. Ioseph C. Reiners, Ir. and captained by Marshall Greer, The Hill School varsity swimming team added another successful season to its record. The squad, composed of fourteen swimmers, won eight dual meets against two defeats and placed second in the Princeton Inter- scholastics behind Lawrenceville. Mercersburg and Lawrenceville were the only teams to defeat The Hill swimmers. In college Freshman competition the tankmen won all their meets which were against Penn, Lehigh, Lafay- ette, and Princeton Freshmen. The swimmers opened the 1954 season by defeating Penn Freshmen 55-20. Horner, Gregory, Ray, Greer, Foster, and McEldowney were the individual winners for The Hill. In the Hrst contest of the season The Hill swim- mers lost only one first place. In the second meet of the year Captain Greer led his team to a 57-18 victory over Lehigh Freshmen. The opponents from Lehigh took first place in the Ioo-yard breaststroke which was the only event they won. Horner and Reck in the 50-yard freestyle, Ray and Gorby in the zoo-yard freestyle, and McEldowney and Gilbert in the diving, who consistently scored for The Hill team throughout the year, took first and second places in their events against the Bethlehem team. Meeting Lafayette Freshmen for their third meet, the swimmers increased their winning streak by trouncing the opposition 55-20. With The Hill securing the opening five Hrst places of the meet along with a first place in the 150-yard medley relay, Lafayette was behind all the way. The mermen lost their first meet to Mercersburg Academy 36-39. A Mercersburg team led by three great swimmers, Myers, Droskick, and Andrews, the Ioo-yard backstroker, who set a new pool record this year, barely defeated the fighting Hill team. The visitors also set a new pool record in the 150-yard medley relay of which Andrews was also a member. McEldowney, the Hill's diver, was the only individual winner for The Hill. The Mercersburg medley relay team won the meet by a touch over The Hill's team of Greer, Westcott and Horner. 143 THE DIAL 1954 ln the Blair meet The Hill was once again victorious with a winning score of 56-19. The Blue and Gray won every event except the Ioo-yard freestyle and the diving. Gregory was a double winner for Hill in the 1oo-yard breaststroke and the 150-Yard individual medley. The swimmers won both of their away meets against Haverford and Princeton Freshmen with respective scores of 40-35 and 45-30. In both meets it took The Hill relays to win the contests. Over dance weekend the Blue and Gray overcame the Peddie School 56-19 to avenge the previous year's defeat. On the Thursday before the Peddie meet the swimming team defeated William Penn High School by the identical score of 56-19. Horner, Greer, Gorby, and Mclildowney gained HEtiplaces inThese two meets. Greer broke his own school record, which he set earlier in the year at 1:o4.4, with a 1203.6 in the York High meet and in the Peddie contest along with Westcott and Horner set a new record of 1 122.3 in the 150-yard medley relay. The Hill swimmers suffered their second loss of the year at the hands of Lawrenceville 22-53. Greer and Mclildowney were the only Hill swimmers to gainglirg places. LawrencevQle,s Brunell set a new record in the 15Qyard individual medley with a time of 1:37.o. In the Princeton Interscholastics The Hill swimmers did astoundingly well as they placed second only to Lawrenceville. Sam Horner, swimming for his first year on the varsity swimming team, qualiHed fourth in the afternoon trials of the 50-yard freestyle and placed second at night in the Hnals. Horner, who swam his best two times of the year, was a member of the 150-yard championship medley relay team. Westcott and Greer com- posed the breaststroke and backstroke part of the victorious relay, which recorded a time of 1:22.2. Captain Greer also won the 100-yard backstroke in 1:o4.o seconds to be the only Hill swimmer to receive two first place medals. Gorby and Ray, who had qualified in the 200-yard freestyle placed third and fourth respectively in the final race. In the last event of the Interscholastics The Hill,s relay team composed of Foster, Earle, Ray, and Reck gained a third place. T44 THE DIAL 1954 Hack Row Hill 55 VARSITY SWIMMING LETTERMEN : M.

With the completion of the new rink this Ianuary, hockey became permanently established at The Hill and will no longer be dependent upon uncertain ice conditions on the Dell. The rink will make it possible to build up underform boys for future Varsity play. On December 29, The Hill and St. Mark's School met in an athletic con- test for the first time as the hockey team initiated rivalry in Madison Square Garden. Austin Hoyt and Grey Perkins scored the Hill's three goals. Al- though the team lost the game 5-3, it was well fought, and prospects were good. Peddie School was the first to fall to the icers. At Baker Rink, the Blue and Gray walloped them 12-1. Also, on February 6, the team netted ten goals to set back Peddie again, ro-1. The first ice was ready on Ianuary 30, when the pucksters met Morristown Prep School in the initial contest at The Hill. Morristown captured an exciting 2-I victory, Steve Feinstein scor- ing The Hill's only goal. A short ceremony was held for the dedication of the rink on February 13th before the Storm King game. Neil Ulman added two goals leading the scoring in The Hill's 4-1 victory. An aggressive sextet from Hershey, Pa., overpowered The Hill in the next game by the score of 3-o. A spirited team took the offensive against Law- renceville and tripped the Blue and Grayls rivals, 4-3. The following Wed- nesday brought the Hfth victory, as Lehigh Frosh were defeated 5-4. Ken Merlin scored three goals in these two games and throughout the season was one of the most reliable players on the team. The Hill bowed in the final match to Ridgewood YMCA, 3-1. By graduation in Iune, the team will lose such able players as Kenny, Catlin, Cantini, Merlin, Thomas, Levering, and Feinstein. These boys will have to be replaced by intramural players. 147 THE DIAL 1954 148 Baseball FIVE LETTERMEN RETURN, PROSPECTS GOOD T HE Hill Varsity Baseball Team opened its 1954 season on April IO against Girard College and met a powerful Lafayette Freshman team soon afterwards on April 14. Although The Hill dropped its Hrst two en- counters, the team, with a foundation of five returning lettermen, some promising new boys, and supplements from last year's IV, still looks forward to a winning record. Mr. Saunders again resumes the position of head coach, assisted by a staff of Messrs. Revell, Morgan, Reydel, and Mauger. These assistant coaches not only aid Mr. Saunders, but also give valuable assistance developing the Iunior Varsity team. Walter Levering, an active member of the squad since his Third Form year, is the captain of the 1954 Varsity Baseball Team. With only two games played so far, it is too early in the season to predict the success of the club. The first string players have not yet been definitely selected, and several positions are still open for contention. From last year's squad, the baseball team retains an able pitcher, Sleepy Reidenouer, second baseman Leon Harbold, Steve Pyle, and Iack Wenders, a pitcher and an outfielder. Previously a third baseman, Pyle will cover the short stop position this spring. If Reidenouer continues the caliber of pitching he exhibited last year, he ought to be a valuable asset to the team. Behind the plate, Bob Bowen and 4'ChickM Wenders will be giving the signals. Iim Fox and Alex Barto will also see action as catchers. Assisting Reidenouer on the mound is Bob Hydeman, who won the 1953 Underform Award in baseball, Dave Riordan, and Iack Wenders, Chuck Landis, a former IV player, is the most likely candidate for first base, and Leon Harbold takes over second as he did last year. So far this season, Harbold has proved himself to be a dependable hitter, and he also should supply added strength to the infield. With Pyle at short stop and new boy Gary Davidson at third base, the infield seems strong and complete. Graeme MacLetchie is a good third base prospect, and Rick Yates and Bob Weiser are both struggling for other infield positions. In the outfield Pete Iones and lim Fox are contesting for right field. Captain Levering will cover the center along with a reliable underformer, Ieff Freeman. Mike Wilson and Dave Riordan both look promising in left 149 THE DIAL 1954 field. Other boys on the Varsity squad who played on the Iunior Varsity last year are Ken Merlin and Ned Frear. The Varsity Baseball Teamas record, at present, is two losses. Bob Hydeman pitched an excellent opener against Girard College, striking out twelve batters. This was Hydeman's first varsity game, and if he continues to play as well in the future, he ought to be a valuable member of the pitching staff and of the squad. The Hill leading 4-2 at the close of the seventh inning, Girard pressed hard and scored three runs to capture a 5-4 victory. With Landis and Harbold on base, Dave Riordan smashed in a home run scoring three runs for The Hill. Levering lined a double in the fifth, knocking in Harbold for The Hillis fourth and final tally. The teams opposed the TiafayetteTFreshirYein inorhe first hfxme game on April I4 and bowed 5-1. The squad's hitting weakness and inexperience was revealed by the winning Lafayette pitcher, Fitzgerald, who held the Blue and Grayfomthree hits. Bob Bowen doubled in the third while Pete Iones bagged a single in the seventh. Levering knocked in Landis to score The Hill's single run. Rain cancelled the game scheduled with Mercersburg fo hen the DIAL went to press, onlywzi gizTrBesTiacPbeen played, and the team had ten matches remaining in the season. The next game on the schedule is with Perkiomen, whom The Hill conquered 7-o last spring. On April 24 the Baseball Squad will try to avenge its 1953 defeat at the hands of Baltimore Poly. Institute. Next follow two contests with Blair Academy and Peddie School, two traditional foes, after which the team will pit its strength against Penn Freshmen. May 8 brings a team from Haverford School, defeated by the 1953 squad 5-2. The Hill will be host to Princeton Freshmen on May 12, the game being followed closely by the first contest with our perennial rival, Lawrenceville. After the last home game on May IQ with P.M.C. Prep, the Varsity Team journeys to New Iersey for the Hnal game of the season with Lawrenceville. 150 THE DIAL 1954 Bllfk 740502 REIDENOUER, LANDIS, SHERWOOD, RIORDAN, FOX, WENDERS, BIERLIN, HYDEM , GARY.

The returning lettermen to whom Head Coach Arthur F. Iackson looks for reliable support are Captain Bill Andrews Ciwhat sparks a championwj, Bill Markle, Wonder Boyf' Tony Codding, affectionately called Cuddles,', Bob Beattie, shufHe-along,'l Ted Ames, 'LAimZes Duck, Bill Peabody, and Richard Romig. To augment this nucleus three fine underform new boys Clay Lindus, Dave Heasley, and Grant Parker, plus reliable Sixth Form talent in the persons of Iames Apple, Bob NeH, David Davenport, and Philip Living- ston. There are others who are expected to develop as the season progresses to weld this track team into an even stronger group. At The Philadelphia Inquirer Meet, The Hill School mile relay team emerged victoriously in the Preparatory School Mile Relay, held in Conven- tion Hall on Ianuary 22. The team included Clay Lindus, Iames Apple, Tony Codding, and Bill Andrews. It was an exciting race all the way with Andrews, after closing a wide gap, breaking the tape in a 3:41.6 clocking. Incidentally, this victory is the third year in succession that The Hill team has won the Preparatory Mile Relay in this particular meet. On February 6, The Hill track team journeyed to Lawrenceville's Lavino Field House, where it was beaten 45 to 32. Iim Apple placed second in the high hurdles and was third in the broad jump, while Bill Andrews out- streaked the well chosen field in the 60 yard dash with an amazing time of :o6.2. This victory was identical with his outstanding effort the previous year, both races being won in :o6.2. Young Grant Parker began his track career at The Hill with a fine 4:46 effort, the best mile run at The Hill since IQSI, indoors or outdoors. After Bill Andrews placed second in the 440, 4'O1d Reliablew Tony Codding breezed across the Finish line to win the 880. In the field events Bill Markle led the blue and gray as he won the shot-put with 49' IZ , while Philip Livingston and Clay Lindus placed second in the high jump. 153 THE DIAL 1954 On the following Saturday The Hill met Blair Academy on frosty Dell Field, beating them 47 to 39 on the strength of a victory in the last event, the sprint relay. The team of Neff, Apple, Markle, and Andrews were clocked in 2:51.7. The freezing temperature made ones body burn in pain and the wind in the runners faces drew frozen tears from their eyes. Captain Bill Andrews won the 60 yard dash in :o6.5, the 440 yard dash in :54.9 and anchored a winning sprint relay team. Our depth proved important in the outcome of the meet, for Bill Markle, David Davenport, Bob Neff, Iim Apple, Bill Peabody, Tony Codding, Harry Miner, Grant Parker, Bob Beattie, Philip Livingston and David Heasley took valuable seconds and thirds. The seasonal warming up exercise of Winter Track, employing snow shovels and brooms to rid the running oval of its cottony mask was inaugu- rated twice during the winter season. This strange conditioning built muscles never before discovered by modern science. On the 20th of February the team traveled to New York to participate in the National High and Prep School Championships held annually in Madison Square Garden. Under such stringent competition, only Bill Markle, placing second in the shot put with a heave of 50' 6 , was able to win a medal. The mile relay team was fourth in a dog eat dog struggle for six laps. The next meet of the winter campaign found the team on a wind swept Franklin Field against the University of Pennsylvania Frosh. The Hill decisively defeated the Red and Blue 56 to 29. Bill Andrews won the 50 yard dash in :05.8 and anchored the mile relay team. Among the Hill victors Bill Markle, shot put 50' 5 , Ted Ames, high jump 5' 4 , Tony Codding, 88rTin 2!IO.7, and Bob Beattie, winning his first mile run in 5:05. Clay Lindus was second in the 440 and Iim Apple in the 60 yard high hurdles, while David Davenport, Garnett Pessel and Grant Parker all took second places in their respective events. The Pennsylvania University Spike Shoe Meet on the 20th of March saw many Hill track men win places, but victories were scarce. Andrews was second in a photofinish with a time of :05.5 for the 50 yard dash. Captain Bill also anchored the victorious mile relay team of Neff, Apple, and Codding. Bill Markle was second in the shotput with a toss of 52, 8 . Codding ran a fine 2:07 half to place second in the 880. Apple was second in the high hurdles, as was Livingston in the pole vault. Bob Beattie weakened on his last lap to drop to second place in the mile. Ted Ames and Dave Hieasley tied for second in the high jump. This meet terminated a successful winter season.

I 56 Tennis T HERE being only two returning lettermen on the Hill Varsity Tennis Team, co-captains Bob and Wally Holzman, the squad consisted mainly of former Iunior Varsity players. Bill McClung, Harry Iohnston, Pete Holz- man, and Ioe Turner were those chosen from last year's I.V. squad. The team was also greatly aided by new boys Sam Hinkle, and Sidney Wood. In their first match on April 14, the Hill netmen subdued the George School 9-o. In the number one position, Wally Holzman, displaying his usual brand of tennis, overcame Robinson, 6-2, 6-2. Bob Holzman, playing in the number two spot, easily defeated Grausman. Following Bob in the number three and four positions respectively, Ioe Turner and Sam Hinkle had no trouble in winning over Pancoast and Shoemaker. Bill McClung and Sidney Wood finished out the signals by downing the opponents' fifth and sixth men. In the doubles, the visitors again bowed to the Holzman twins. Pete Holz- man and Harry Iohnston captured the eighth victory, and Gray Perkins teamed with Canie Smith to win the final match. The squad having played one contest out of the scheduled ten, has much tougher opposition ahead. Princeton, as always, has a very fine tennis team. They have such players as Pete Pressinger and Bob O,Conner, Hill's first and sixth men in 1953. Captaining the Landon Tennis Team is Donald Dell, last year's national boys, tennis champion. Landon should be a hard match. Along with these two squads, Lawrenceville and the Navy Plebes are suspected of having strong teams this year. Mr. Bender, head coach of tennis, feels that the principal need of the squad is experience. He hopes that the boys will gain this during the early matches, so they will be in shape for the harder ones later in the year. Many players are fast learning competitive play through inter-team playoffs. There are many boys fighting to gain the last four positions, as these are not yet definitely set. At the time this article is being written, it is diiiicult to predict what the final outcome of the season will be, but with Bob and Wally Holzman leading the team, the squad can,t but have a successful year. 157 THE DIAL 1954 1954 GOLF SQUAD Sfzllllffllgi KINDT, HORNHR, CANTINI, BlT'l'ING, VV.

Led by co-captains Iim Rowley, Don Merkelbach, and Sammy Horner, the returning lettermen, and supported by last yearls Iunior Varsity mem- bers, Henry Stoever, Bob Bitting, Corky Smith, Tony Earle, Ierry Cantini and Charley Kindt, the team hopes to finish the season with this lone defeat. At Navy Don Merkelbach was the lone winner as the team lost 6-1. On the whole the team scored better than the 1953 golf team, but the Plebe aggregation had too much power and accuracy for the Hill seven. Playing for the Hill were Rowley, Merkelbach, Horner, Stoever, Earle, Bitting, and Smith, in that order. Although three of the top players will be absent from the squad until the Princeton Freshman match, in the meantime the team hopes to down three tough opponents. They face Woodberry Forest, a newcomer to the schedule, at Woodbury, and then play host to Haverford and Peddie, which comes here on the Sixth Form Dance weekend. The Princeton Freshman match at Princeton promises to be one of the most interesting because three members of last yearls team are playing with the Frosh. Returning home the Hill will face the Penn Freshmen, another newcomer to this year's improved schedule. In the last two matches the linksters twice will play their perennial foe, Lawrenceville, the only team to defeat the ,53 team. Following the regular season the annual school championship will be held with Iim Rowley defending his title, while the highlight of the season, the Eastern lnterscholastics, at which last yearls team took second place, and Finley McRae won the individual championship, will follow graduation. Special mention should be given to Steve Grady, the professional at the home course, for his help and instruction. 159 THE DIAL 1954 Smfldingz Joxns, n.

Few people realize the impor- tance of school spirit, and the strong effect it has upon the team's Willing- ness to fight. Headed by Tom Mullins, this yearis cheerleaders have done much to inspire spirit in the student body. Before each game they untiringly went through all the dorms arousing interest. The rallies on the campus the nights before games also proved to be very successful. Their songs, speeches, and cheers accompanied by the band did much to enliven the campus. They participated at all the varsity athletic events and led the procession at the Lawrenceville game. At the conclusion of the football season they did an exceptional job at the bonfire on the baseball field. Mention must also be made of Mr. Iackson and Mr. Revell vvhose fine guidance and assistance aided them immeasurably. 161 x i. i xl UNIUH SPORTS 0 D D X Me!

THE DIAL 1954 164 The Far Fields HE Far Fields, The Hill Schoolls answer to baseball's farm system, again enjoyed a successful season: all of its football and two of its soccer teams had winning seasons. The true value of the Far Fields, however, is not measured in wins and losses, but in the building of worthy athletes. It is the proving ground for future varsity competitors where true sportsman- ship and the fundamentals of the games are taught as one. That is one of the reasons why the Varsity Football and Soccer teams have distinguished themselves year after year. The Black Cup, an award which is made each year to the outstanding player on the Far Fields, was won this year by Robert W. Neff for his out- standing play and inspiration as an end for the Thirds.

Easily adapting themselves to the newly instituted T-formation, the Thirds football team, ably coached by Messrs. Mercer, Moore, and Tyrer, com- pleted their season this year without incurring a single defeat. Royersford IV was the Hrst victim of the Thirds by a score of I3-0. Perkiomen School and Coatesville IV were easily subdued by scores of 33-6 and 32-IQ. The Thirds next two opponents, Norristown IV and Pottstown IV, were com- pletely shut-out by scores of 25-O and 26-o. The Thirds next game was very close with the Thirds winning over Pottstown again I3-I2.. In their last game of the season the Thirds defeated Stevens Trade by a score of I3-O. Outstanding members of the Thirds line were Neff, Williams, Zingg, Speiden, Schrader, Hogaboom, and Clay. The backfield was composed of Frear, Feinstein, Allen, and Captain Knerr. Fay, Cantini, Davenport, Gary, Gregory, and Carrick were the most reliable substitutes. 166 THE DIAL 1954 FAR FIELDS FIFTHS lgdfk 1'0MfZ MR. CUSTER, MR.

The Sixths seconds completed their season with a record of four wins and three defeats. They defeated Pottstown, Boyertown twice, and Ritten- house. They were beaten by Colonial Park, Pottstown, and Norwood. The Iunior Varsity soccer team had a season in which they failed to win a single game. They did, however, gain invaluable experience which will aid them greatly when they play on the varsity next year. Their defeats were suffered at the hands of North Wales High, Warwick High twice, and Abington High. The closest the IV's came to winning was when they battled to a 1-1 tie with a strong Perkiomen team. Notable players were Meserve, Stifel, Levitz, Luce, Coutin, Geisel, Hoyt, Moran, and Wakeman.

Fl III Winter Term Sports HE Winter Sports Program again enjoyed a very successful season. Mr. T Mercer and Mr. Ward deserve special acknowledgment for their capa- ble direction of the program. Upon the completion of the new Hockey rink, an intramural hockey league was formed which soon became one of the most popular of the non-varsity sports. This marked the second successive year that the Winter Sports Program has been expanded to encourage team competition rather than participation in Gym Classes. The Gym Leaders lent invaluable assistance to Mr. Ward and Mr. Mercer in the direction of the program. Bitting, Griffiths, Kessler, Wenrich, and F. Steffens aided in regular Gym. Napier, Fryer, Romig, and Bell managed Correctives, while Echols and Graebner supervised 6th Form Gym. Iohnson, B. Iahncke, I. Williams, and Picard aided greatly by ref- ereeing the Iunior and Senior League games. GYM LEAD-ERS Sturzdilzgz GARX o s, r,1vIxGs'roN, Kiassrl-LR.

The struggle for first place in the Iunior League was much closer, with the Chickens finally winning over the Horses, Hogs, and Cows. Intramural Hockey, the most recent addition to the Winter Sports Pro- gram, enjoyed a very successful First season. Messrs.

S0 every y THE DIAL 1954 180 The lllal HIS book, The Dial, contains the record of the Class of 1954 in its final year of Work, academic and athletic, as Well as fun-making. In a yet Wider scope, it is a description of one year out of the life of a school which has existed for over a century. A mere journalistic account of campus events does not sufhce to tell a complete story of living on The Hill, as it would only be like a monochrome etching. In the pages of an annual should be drawn a portrait vvith a personality determined by the moods and attitudes which colored the year's events. To compile a book which rellects all the many and varied facets of a year's Worth of The Hill has been the goal of the 1954 Dial Board. No major revisions in the layout have been incorporated, though there was an unsuccessful plan to increase the vvidth and length of the annual, nor could any such change accomplish the purpose of revealing the spirit behind the THE DIAL BOARD Sftllllfllllgj scziiiunrk, ia, jixitiasfw REED, Tl'IOM,-XS, s'1'm-:fi-Ns.

Nevertheless, in the interest of variation from previous yearbooks, a few innovations have been made. Most noticeable is the new arrangement of the Sixth Form portraits-they are positioned vertically on the outside halves of the pages, with the activities list toward the inside. The number of pages has been decreased, both to promote economy and to concentrate the material, increasing the interest through eliminating superfluous matter. Also noteworthy are Willy M. E. Sanderls original photo-montages and cutouts. Heading and supervising the whole organization was Anthony S. Cod- ding, whose job, besides designing the format, conducting the questionnaire, and choosing the suitable quotations, included assuring the smooth func- tioning of the subordinate departments. As Managing Editor, Robert N. Bowen, Ir. assisted Codding in his duties, as well as acting as general trouble- shooter and director of advertising. The Editorial Board consisted of three members: Gerald P. Cantini was responsible for the sections on clubs and organizations while Henry V. Stoever, III assigned and wrote articles for the athletics chapter, Colin I. S. Thomas, Ir. performing a like task in the publications and entertainment departments. As Business Manager, Robert T. Schrader was holder of the purse-strings. The soliciting of adver- tisements and the typing of forms such as the questionnaire also fell within the jurisdiction of Schrader and his assistant, Robert F. Iackson. Willy M. E. Sander became a familiar figure roaming about the campus with his camera on the look-out for a likely shot. He found many of them. Credit for out- standing artistry and drawing belongs to Fred Steilens. For limitless patience and incalculable aid, Mr. Arthur F. Iackson, as faculty advisor to the Dial, deserves special commendation. Long after the present class has made its individual way into the out- side world, this book will remain on shelves throughout the school. By it will be judged and remembered the boys who, in the schoolls Iogrd year, made up so essential a part of the community. Guided by the Editor and Managing Editor, put together by the literary, art, and photographic boards, and published and kept alive by the business board, the Dial of 1954 is offered in the hope that it will present a favorable portrait of the class of that year. 182 Q The News HE job of reporting campus events and commenting on them belonged to The Hill NEWS. With its Weekly appearance in the telephone ex- change mailboxes, this occasionally four, generally six, or sometimes even eight-page publication represented the most evident extra-curricular activity in the school. Friday afternoons always savv a gathering of boys in the Common Room, Waiting to find out in their NEWS's what the following nightls movie would be or to look at the cartoon, as well as, the editors fondly hoped, to read the editorials and the front-page articles on the latest Trustees meeting, Humanities concert, or Student Council decisions. Parents, alumni, and other schools received the remaining half of the approximately 1,000 copies per issue, which meant that The NEWS had the important re- sponsibility of accurately reporting and publicizing what transpired each week in the Ucity upon the hillf' THE NEWS BGARD Bulk I'UIA!I l-Rl-,I:MAN, JUDD.

Head of this fifty-First NEWS board, which published the paper from the Spring Term of 1953 until the end of the next Winter Term, was Anthony B. Catlin. It was his duty as Chairman to insure smooth operation and coordination among the several different departments, in which he received valuable assistance from other members of his board, and to determine the policy of The NEWS in conjunction with the other two members of the editorial-writing trium- virate, Managing Editor Thomas M. Chastain and Iohn R. Graebner, Feature Editor, all of whom contributed toward maintaining a consistently top-level editorial column, Catlin with his authoritative style, Chastain by his largely controversial articles of constructive criticism, and Graebner through his characteristically calm observance. In addition to sharing in the editorial writing, the Managing Editor's responsibilities involved upholding the standard and quality of the writing that went into the paper and alter- nating with News Editor Louis T. Klauder, Ir. in determining the front- page articles for each weekly issue. Credit for original and interesting ma- terial on the feature page was due Graebner, who devoted considerable ef- fort toward attaining variety and humor. Then there was Sports Editor Frederick R. Alvord, III, the man who, besides supervising the coverage of athletics from varsity down to midget teams, originated the columns that put individuality into the sports page. In true journalistic style Otto M. Zingg as Make-up Editor arranged the format of the news pages, and the duties of Copy Editor required Peter W. Perine to read and make the neces- sary corrections on each of the nearly forty articles that appeared in each NEWS. Edward K. Frear contributed the art work in the form of cartoons parodying aspects of Hill life. Only occasionally finding it necessary to censor portions of the copy, Mr. Rice, Faculty Advisor, adopted a liberal and appreciative attitude toward the management of the paper. While Bruce McAllister supplied the best photographs the NEWS has printed in several years, Business Manager Theodore S. Gary, Ir. maintained a financial check on extravagant layouts planned by over-exuberant literary board editors. 184 The Record TARTING out in the Spring Term of 1953, the Senior Record Board, com- prised of Chairman Harry Iohnston and Howard Butcher, Press Editor Louis Klauder and regular board members Howard Iudd, Marshall Greer and Frank Faint attempted, with the incalculable aid of Mr. Patterson, to meet or better the standard of literature maintained in earlier issues, espe- cially those of the previous yearls board. By the end of the term, a reasonable standard format had been introduced by Mr. Patterson and Lou Klauder. This format has been followed since and seems to have proven satisfactory. Upon returning to school, the board elected Colin Thomas to the un- ol-Hcial post of exchange editor as well as to a regular position on the editorial staff to replace Frank Faint, who did not return to The Hill this year. Then, the new board settled down to work. The November issue came out as scheduled and contained a wide assortment of varied articles. lt was favorably reviewed, and the board counted itself off to a reasonable start. THE RECORD BOARD Smmifzzgz 'I'IIONi:XS, Kmcrml-'R.

Soon after the Ianuary issue, the inflow of material increased, and there was little trouble in keeping on schedule for the rest of the year. As time passed, the board evolved a more efficient system of canvassing for material, and interest began to rise. The heelers for the junior board were required to submit as many articles as possible, and many Sixth Form- ers of previously unknown potentialities began to submit articles. Also, with regard to the future welfare of The Record,', interest in the underforms was encouraged. Once candidates for the board made themselves known, a system of as- signing proofreading and retyping jobs was incorporated. Consequently, The Recordn began to function more smoothly and efhciently. During February there was a short story contest which supplied a good deal of material for the March issue. In the November, 1953, issue of The Penn Charter Magazinen the Penn Charter editors gave evidence of the quality of The Recordl, by citing as follows: All these stories and poems are well written. They show a feeling for writing that is equaled by few school periodicals .... U Then, as an example of the Records, contents, they reprinted a poem by Butcher. The retiring senior board would like to express here their sincere vote of thanks to Mr. Patterson, the advisor. He is the main factor in the success of an issue. Thanks must also be given the reviewers for the excellent job they do, as well as for the donation of their valuable time. 186 Press Eluh oUNDED in 1924 and reorganized in 1943 along its present lines, the FPress Club is an indispensable institution here at The Hill. For this unique organization, to which some thirty boys belong, is not only a club in the ordinary sense, but the oflicial publicity agency of the school as well. It serves a two-fold purpose: to acquaint the public with various phases of Hill life, and to give its members practical journalistic training. Emphasis on the word practical-the club works with professional newspapers, sup- plying them with information and stories about The Hill. This year, under the able leadership of its chairman, Mark Miller, the Press Club has placed over a dozen articles in such publications as The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer. In addition, it was re- sponsible for the Writeups given our athletic events in the New York, Phila- delphia, and Pottstown papers, and for the numerous items concerning Hill students, which appeared in their home town papers across the land. THE PRESS CLUB BOARD Slalldlngz sal-Po , D. MIQIQKELB.-will. ALLEN. brafvzf: 1.1-.vP.R1N1z, x 187 THE DIAL 1954 The Press Club is one of the few self-supporting organizations on the campus and requires no dues or initiation fee from its members. The group subsists almost entirely upon its commissions as exclusive Hill agent for the sale of The Pottstown Mercury. In charge of this important activity is Wal- ter Levering, Newspaper Subscription Agent. Another valuable source of income is the remuneration for articles printed by the major New York and Philadelphia papers. The organizationls financial affairs are handled by Donald Merkelbach, Secretary-Treasurer. All varsity and sub-varsity athletic events are covered by the clubls re- porters who are responsible to Preston Allen, the group,s sports editor. To The New York Times, The New York Herald Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Philadelphia Bulletin, and The Pottstown Mercury go reports of the various varsity contests g The Mercury also prints stories of the sub- varsity games. As the schoolls ollicial publicity agent, the Press Club is concerned not only with The Hill as an institution, but with its students as individuals. Therefore the Literary Department, under the editorship of Bob McEl- downey, sends, to their home town papers, reports of those boys who have distinguished themselves either academically or in some extra-curricular activity. A letter is also dispatched to the student's parents, informing them of the event and requesting that they cut out the article and return it to the club. Thus most of the Press Clubas stories eventually find their way back to The Hill and are displayed in the Common Room by Dan Ray,s Bulletin Board Department. Since it is the official representative of the school, the club has to measure up to certain standards, and it is to the credit of its members that throughout the year those standards have been conscientiously maintained. However, the group could not have done the fine job they did without the help of an experienced advisor, which they had in Mr. Iames V. Moffatt, The Hill's Director of Public Relations. One tangible result of this year's efforts has been the publicity given to the interest shown in our attempts to reintroduce hockey here at the school. Other results are perhaps less concrete. 188 Program lfumrnittae HE Program Committee, composed this year of seven boys, performs the valuable function of selling programs for the Fall Term football games. These programs featured the names, numbers, and coaching staffs of all the teams in the games during the football season, vvith the exception of the first contest, and needless to say vvere a valuable asset to the spectators. The Committee, advised by Mr. Herbert, sold programs at a reduced rate for these home encounters to boys who subscribed at the beginning of the term. The group also put out an attractive program for the alumni Weekend, containing the pictures and records of all the athletic teams playing during the term. The members were in charge of the advertising needed and handled its distribution to the school. Thus despite its comparatively small size, the Program Committee has done an important and commendable job. THE PROGRAM COMMITTEE Brzrrlq Roux: aofxz, IUDD, ALLEN, zrrvcsrs.

F 193 THE DIAL 1954 SPRING TERM DANCE COMMITTEE On the night of February 20, sixty Fifth and Sixth Formers attended a dance at The Baldwin School in Bryn Mawr, Pa. The boys, capably chaper- oned by Mr. Worthington, left here by bus at 5:30 p.m. and arrived at Baldwin in time for an excellent dinner. The couples danced to the rhythm of a victrola from after dinner until eleven when the boys sorrowfully boarded the busses again after forming many new friendships. The Spring Term dance weekend, the Sixth Formersl paradise, was held again this year on May 1. Following the same procedure as in other years, the girls arrived Friday evening in time for dinner and left after breakfast on Sunday. The Friday night dance lasted from nine to two, while the dancing on Saturday night was from eight to twelve. There was a large variety of athletic contests Saturday afternoon, as well as a jam session by The Titans. The Drama! gave two one-act plays that night. 196 Choir and Elec Klub To its more than fifty members, the Glee Club is one of the most re- warding and interesting groups on the campus. This year under the directorship of Mr. Charles A. Rebstock and the presidency of Mike Fay, the club completed a season judged successful not only from a professional standpoint but from the spirit and enthusiasm displayed by the group as a whole. Standards are high in the Glee Club, and to survive Mr. Reb- stockls numerous 'Cpurgesf' one must be both a talented vocalist and a keenly interested participant. Credit for this yearls commendable record, of course, goes to all the boys in the group, but special recognition ought to be extended to those who, by their leadership and hard work, have proven themselves worthy of be- ing the Glee Club's officers. They are President, Mike Fay, Vice-President, Iohn Williams, Secretary, Dave Yarington, and Treasurer, Tony Codding. Many of the boys in the group have shown definite talents and have proven themselves indispensable to the club. However, there are three members of the organization whose voices show special promise and without whose aid the Glee Club would not have been able to give the fine performances: they are Ioe Biddle, Henry Poler, and Ioe Turner. This year the Glee Club was directed by Mr. Charles A. Rebstock, who replaced Mr. Richard C. Fairchild, formerly head of the organization. Due to the death of his father and the threatened deterioration of the business which his parents had started, Mr. Fairchild found it necessary to take a leave of absence from his post. Mr. Rebstock is a man of wide musical background and extensive knowledge of boys, having taught music in three high schools. A native of Pennsylvania, he received his B.A. from Moravian College and went on to study the organ under I. F. Walle and later, Dr. T. F. Shields. During his career, he has held the position of organist and choirmaster in several Protestant churches throughout the East and Middle West. For eleven years he headed the music department of Pittsburgh's Westinghouse High School and later taught at the Fifth Avenue High School in the same city and East Tech. High School of Cleveland. He di- rected for several years the Carnegie Tech. Glee Club and has worked with choral groups in Philadelphia. During the winter and spring terms, the Club gave four concerts, three of which were with neighboring girls' schools and were followed by dances.

For the last two concerts of the Winter Term, the Glee Club travelled to Ellis and Shipley, two girls' schools in the Philadelphia area. For these performances, two more songs were added to the Baldwin Program, Schumann's The Two Grenadiersw and Ava Veri- uml' by Mozart. On May nineteenth, the group gave their final concert in Me- morial Hall with Miss Phyllis Kurtin, for many years a soloist with the Bach Festival at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Accompanied by Miss Kurtin, the club sang Schubertls Omnipotence', and Winkin', Blinkin', and Nod, 198 THE DIAL 1954 a chilclren's poem by Eugene Field, which had been set to music by Ethelbert Nevin. More than thirty Glee Clubbers are also members of the Hillls other musical organization, the Choir. This group confines its activities to the chapel services, in which it leads the congregation in the singing of hymns, and to the annual Christmas carol service. For this event, as in former years, the choir clad in surplices slowly Filed through the aisles to the stalls sing- ing the processional hymns '4Veni Emmanuel, c'Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silent, and uAcleste Ficlelesf' The service also inclucletl eight other carols of German, English, and Latin origin.

Fred Waring, president of the Orchestra, Dave Boaz, vice-president, and Peter Perine, treasurer, took over respective positions on the band, Boaz leading it in its formations. A good many members also participated in the pep rallies held during the year. The success of the band is perhaps best indicated by its size. Composed of twenty-nine members, it is larger than at any time in its previous history. 201 THE DIAL 1954 CARRICK, F. VVARING, NAYO, B. ADAMS, XIALLORY.

The other Titans were Bruce Carrick fsoprano saxophonej, Anthony Mayo Cdrumsj, and William Adams Qcornetj. Waring headed the organization, David Boaz was manager, and Peter Perine was stage manager. The band played in Memorial Hall before the Saturday night movie sev- eral times this year, besides entertaining at most of the Glee Club concerts. In addition, a jam session was held at the Pipe Club the afternoon of the Winter Term Dance. Tentative plans were made for the band to go to Palm Beach, Florida, during the spring vacation. At the end of last year, the Titans released two long-playing records of popular jazz tunes, Mad Melodiesl' and Inspiration Musicf' These were made for them by Decca from tapes of Titan concerts. 202 THE DIAL 1954 Szanding: DURBORAW, RoBsoN, CAPRIO, BRACLY, FARMER, oRR, Toy.

Smfcd: PYPFR, connms, BIILLER, Ehristian Assntiatinn HE Hill Christian Association, since its founding in 1899, has consist- ently been one of the most active organizations on the campus. Through the efforts of Chairman Anthony Codding, Advisor Rev. Thomas C. Winn, and committee heads Harry Iohnston, Mark Miller, Robert Neff, William Peabody, W'alter Pyper, and Henry Stoever, the Christian Association has had its most successful year. The Finance Committee, the Program Com- mittee, the Chapel Committee, and the Y.M.C.A. Committee are the four major divisions of this organization. Headed by Henry Stoever and William Peabody, the Finance Commit- tee is responsible for the organization and management of The Campus Fund Drivef, This year fifteen hundred dollars was raised during this fund drive, and another one hundred dollars was pledged, making a record amount of sixteen hundred dollars. Fourteen hundred dollars of this money was used for contributions to The United Fund, The Pottstown Building 1 209 THE DIAL 1954 Fund, The World Student Service Fund, and the publication of The Hand- book of Information, a book which is of great aid to all new boys. The remainder of the money is given to worthy charitable organizations. The Finance Committee also sends Christmas cards and presents to two southern schools which The Christian Association sponsors. Under the advisorship of Mr. Herbert, and with the generous contributions made by the students, this committee deserves a great deal of credit for collecting sixteen hundred dollars during its record-breaking fund drive. The Program Committee, headed by Walter Pyper and Robert Neff, and advised by Mr. Moore, has many functions to perform. This year a new committee, The Welcoming Committee, has been added to The Christian Association, under the supervision of The Program Committee. This Com- mittee, consisting of Fifth and Sixth Formers, conducts visiting guests around the school. Aside from this most important function, The Program Committee engages speakers to lecture on their organizations, arranges trips to organizations to which The Christian Association donates money, and publicizes the activities of the Association. Harry Iohnston, head of The Chapel Committee, and Mr. Winn, advisor to this committee, have been very successful in their efforts to make this year's Christian Association the best in the school's history. This committee is responsible for placing the programs, which are used during Sunday morning services, and then collecting these programs at the end of the service. The members of this committee assist at the Communions, and the very special annual Carol Service. The money collected weekly in the Chapel is disposed of by The Christian Association in the following manner: the majority of the money is used to help sponsor two southern schools, The Clincho School, and The Weaver's Creek School, while the remainder of this money is used to sponsor two rehabilitation units in Korea and aid the American Field Service, The American Farm School in Greece, and the Grenfell Mission. Mark Miller, head of the Y.M.C.A. Committee, and Mr. St. Iohn, ad- visor to this committee, are doing an excellent job helping, with the aid of some Fifth and Sixth Formers, Pottstown with its Y.M.C.A. work. With one hundred and sixty boys as members, which is twice as many as were in last year,s Christian Association, and under the tremendous lead- ership of Anthony Codding and Mr. Winn, this year's Christian Association will be long remembered for serving faithfully many organizations. 210 THE DIAL 1954 Stmldilzgz BIINER, zixco, CHASTAIN.

At graduation in Iune, another group of students from the Class of 1954 having received honor grades during their Sixth Form year at The Hill will be elected to the society. The Cum Laude Society, which is found in most of our secondary schools, is modeled after the Phi Beta Kappa Fraternity, an honorary society in col- leges and universities. The Hill School Chapter was founded in 1921 by Mr. Rolfe, who taught at The Hill for fifty years and acted as Headmaster following the death of Professor Meigs. 211 THE DIAL 1954 SILHIIHIYQZ CARRICK, BIINER, LUCI41, GREILR, II.

The purpose of the club is to give those interested a chance to listen to and participate in dis- cussions on the various aspects of literature and authors not covered in the classroom. Each member picks an author and speaks on him before the entire group. The club begins the year with six members chosen by the preceding group, and is open only to Sixth Formers. These six then choose six more of their classmates to join them for the rest of the year. It is intentionally kept small so those genuinely interested may have an opportunity to partici- pate. The English Club meets every other Thursday evening in the Head- master's livingroom, which adds a literary atmosphere to the meetings. Unlike other clubs, there are no dues or officers and it is kept very informal. CODDING, BURKE, CHASTAIY 212 THE DIAL 1954 Buck row: CATLIN, IUDD, H. IOHNSTON, PYPER, THOMAS, ANDREWS.

Sixth ljnrm Speaking Club VERY Sunday evening before chapel, the members of the Speaking Club gather in the Pipe Club to discuss matters of both current and national importance. The meetings are purposely kept small and informal. Often many of the masters are invited down to speak on some of their outside interests other than their subjects. Many of the forum speakers and other distinguished guests Who visit the school are invited to address the group. The conversation is free and open, Without any faculty supervision. Ably run by Co-Chairmen Burke and Ames, the club has had a very ac- tive and successful year. The topics, picked by a committee of four and Mr. Rice, have proved to be very stimulating. At the end of each year, the members elect boys from the Fifth Form to succeed them. The officers are elected for the vvhole year by the group. Mr. Rice, faculty advisor for about ten years, is very pleased with the club and feels that all its members have benefited greatly from the experience. 21 D THE DIAL 1954 Sfllillillngl ABERNETHY, NORTON.

Mr. Walsh, advisor to the Wranglers, and Mr. St. Iohn, QED advisor, both feel that the school has shown a much more active interest in the art of debating. They are both pleased with the progress made and are planning some intra-school debates. A few of the old members participated in these and argued on the national debate topic for this year. Mr. Hall feels that the importance of being able to think logically and present views to an audience canlt be overstressed. Due to the keenness of competition, the members must give an impromptu speech as a trial for admittance. Each organization has its own constitution and officers, which are elected each term. Once a week, usually after chapel, two members from each team gather in the Little Theater to argue on matters of current and national importance. Anyone may attend the debates which often turn out to be very fascinating. 214 THE DIAL 1954 Sfblfldiligl MC ELDOWNEY, GARY, GRAEBNER, BIARSHALL, LIVINGSTON, DARBY, POPE, DAVENPORT, NI.

EU-up Committee INCE its inception six years ago the Co-op has fullilled a two-fold pur- pose: first, to afford nightly refreshments to Sixth Formers, and second, to serve as a charitable organization for the school. Among other things the Co-op's profits are employed for the maintenance of the television rooms and for financial aid to the Dial. Once fifth formers are given equal Co-op privileges midvvay through the Fall Term, they assume vvith the Sixth Form the responsibility of serving in the Co-op. The Co-op Committee is comprised of tvventy-one Sixth Formers Who administrate the nightly Co-op and record its profits. The members of this committee serve about twice as many times as other members of their Form. They have voluntarily contributed their time and their services to assist Mr. Iackson and Mr. Revell, the advisors to the Committee, in ac- complishing another prolitable year for the Sixth Form Co-op. 215 ! 4 Y i E X 2 I I I I 3 EL BS - L9 5 ff' 'N fl I XX ?

The club enjoyed the able leadership of President William Roschen and Vice-President Bill Echols, who, when teamed with such able Sixth Form Committeemen as Hubert D. Wolfe, Gerard M. Kincade Ill, Howard S. Iudd, Ir., Pieter L. Hogaboom, Iohn H. Willock, and Edward K. Frear managed to make the club's year a highly successful one. With the approach of the Winter Term Dance Weekend, the committee, without outside aid, managed to remodel the interior of the clubhouse and give it a thorough cleaning and painting, which it had badly needed. During the dance weekend the club held an open house featuring the Iazz Band for entertainment. A bridge tournament is held each winter term in which practically the whole club participates, for the game is very popular. Many boys join the club knowing nothing about bridge but graduate experienced players after playing against stiff Pipe Club competition. The purpose of the club is to give boys who wish to smoke a place where they can relax and smoke in their leisure time. The club supplies a radio and victrola which invariably have music on them whenever there are boys at the club. The club is also the only place on the campus where boys may play cards, although even their card playing is restricted to Wednesdays and Saturdays. Such things as these go to make the club a pleasant and relaxing change for the members from the regular school life. Several new card tables and new decks of cards have also been added to the Pipe Club during the year, some donated by members and some purchased from the club's funds which are raised from membership fees and the proceeds from ciga- rette sales. The clubhouse has served a new purpose this year, that of providing a space where high fidelity recordings are made of the Titans, the Hill School Iazz Band. The Titans have made several recordings there and plan to make others as the year goes on. The recording sessions make good entertainment for the members of the Pipe Club on Wednesday afternoons, for the mem- bers are encouraged to attend to H11 in the background of the sessions. Copies of all the recordings are sold in the Spring term to all members of the school who wish to purchase them. 219 THE DIAL 1954 The Pipe Club Will again entertain in the Spring term over Dance Week- end, and it is probable that the Titans will play for entertainment. The club wishes to express its appreciation to the entire faculty and most especially to its advisor, Mr. Iackson, for their cooperation and assistance in making this a successful year for the Pipe Club. For the second half of the year, the club enjoyed the leadership of Presi- dent Bill Echols and Vice-President Hugh Wolfe. PIPE CLUB COMMITTEE Sldlldfllgl PAGIH, S'I'UISlih, IREAR, KENNY, IUDD, I.

Eamera Club NDER the able guidance of their new advisor, Mr. Whiteley, the Camera Club became one of the most active organizations on the campus. In- terest has increased tremendously, and the club had a very ambitious year under Willy Sander as President and Iohn Graebner as Vice-President. The club meets every Sunday after dinner in the Science Library. There are no requirements for membership except a sincere interest in the hobby of photography. Mr. Whiteley gives instruction on both the picture-taking techniques and the processing in the darkroom. Lectures are given on the various aspects of photography, and visiting speakers frequently attend club meetings. Also scheduled were some field trips Which the club made for the purpose of getting new subject matter. A contest was sponsored by the club to give those interested a chance to participate in national competition. This year the darkroom facilities Were greatly improved, and Mr. Whiteley feels that this year's club has done much to establish a firm base for next yearls club. 221 THE DIAL 1954 Sltlfidfligi SHIRLEY, VVELLS, DELAFIELD, F.

The club held regular meetings every Sunday evening after supper, at which time the members vvorl-:ed at constructing new equipment, and also at making themselves more adept in the use of the equipment already available. The main objective of the club is to have every member eventually earn his ham license. This autumn, the club, using Mr. Iackmanis call QW3MWLj, entered the annual American Radio Relays contest. The object Was to amass as many points as possible by contacting different zones throughout the United States and Canada. The club received 275 stations, and earned a total of 35,000 points. Entering another contest later on this year, the Radio Club hopes to contact foreign countries. A trip to a Pittsburgh radio station is planned for the Spring Term.

Schaadt, vvho is a capable instructor and trainer. The club does most of its riding during the Fall and Spring Terms, While in the Winter Term the members see movies. There are about thirty members in the Horsemanship Club, but only those boys who have Written permission from their parents may ride. The club does its riding at the Holden Stables, located four miles from The Hill. From the Holden Stables, the members take several one to tvvo hour road trips Weekly into Chester County, which affords them some very pic- turesque rides on old country roads. This year is the First year that club members have taken weekend or Sunday morning rides. The ollicers of this year's Horsemanship Club are Francis I. B. Duffy, President, Donald P. Raynor, Vice-Presidentg and Matthew S. Forelli, Secretary-Treasurer. 223 THE DIAL 1954 Blick FULUZ ALLEN, IEFI-'RIl4.S, D. S'I'liVliNS, PERRY, POST, N. VVILLOCK. SKTOIIIIY F0101 D. THUBISON, li.

At the regular meetings movies concerned with the various phases of yachting were shown. When a movie was not available, Mr. Whiteley, the club's advisor, usually explained the different aspects of sailing. This year the club consisted of approximately twenty members. The club has taken many trips to see various boat shows and to partici- pate in many sailing events. Last year several members of the club took a trip to New York to see The New York Boat Show. This year the club plans to take a trip to Philadelphia to see a boat show. During the Spring term different members of the club go to Princeton to participate in four dual meets on Carnegie Lake. In Iune the club plans to travel to the U.S. Naval Academy to participate in the Eastern lnterscholastics. 224 THE DIAL 1954 Sl6l7Idf77gZ VVIzLLS, BIALLORY, FIINKHOUSER, TULLY, 'I'.

TORREY LOVVILNTHAL, NAPIFR RALSTON Rifle Club GAIN this year the school continued to show a very active interest in one of its oldest and most popular organizations, the Gun Club. Mr. Minault, faculty advisor for eight years, is very pleased with the club's activities and accomplishments. Although the membership is limited due to the size of the range, which was built in 1927, Mr. Minault hopes that it will soon be expanded to give more boys an opportunity to participate in the shooting. The club meets every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, from 2:10-3:00 p.m. in the range. Members may earn all the N.R.A. ratings from pro-marksman to distinguished rifleman. There are Five shooting ports and two shifts may fire in one afternoon. The club dues buy the rifles, the supplies, maintain the range, and cover insurance. New members learn all the workings of the rifle and how to handle it carefully. Entertainment is also a very important aspect, for the gun en- thusiast is usually devoted to his hobby. 225 THE DIAL 1954 Slzzndizzgz BURKE, D. SCHMITT, HATCH, Seated: IUDD, KUEHNER. Chess Eluli HE Chess Club, one of the most stimulating clubs on the Hill campus, is now in its second year after a short discontinuation. The Club is headed by President Howard Iudd and has Ross Kuehner as its Vice-President. The group of boys who compose the membership are interested in this fine game and are eager to learn more about one of the Worldls oldest forms of en- tertainment. Mr. Bristol, the advisor, offers his help to the members and it is always readily accepted. The Club meets on Sunday afternoon to play and to discuss the problems of the game. A small library is available to the members for research and for questions concerning the game. The Club participates in outside contests with other schools and it hopes to organize a regular schedule next year. The Chess Club offers the opportunity for boys to learn more about the game, and the members hope that there will be more boys interested enough to join next year. 226 THE DIAL 1954 Standing: GRAVES, EcHo1.s, D.

It is open to all boys, and no previous experience is needed. Members feel that the best way to learn skeet shooting is by prac- tice after a few basic lessons in technique. Last year the new skeet field was completed and oiiiers the students the best range in the area. It is out be- hind the First green on the golf course and is the best of its kind in any prep school. The field is the regulation size, thus giving as many as five boys an opportunity to fire at the same time. The club olhcers are Hal duPont, President, Bill Echols, Vice-President, and Kurt Hauser, Secretary-Treasurer. This year the club sponsored a con- test open to both masters and boys which proved to be a very exciting event. Every Wednesday and Saturday finds the members out busily bringing down their clay pigeons. Each member must supply his own gun, and may shoot according to any class, depending on the gun.

LThe club has proved itself to be very popular, containing about Fifty members this year. Otto Zingg served the post of President this year with Bob Demaree as Secretary-Treasurer. Mr. Harter and Mr. Iackman, the club's advisors, helped the club to reduce its expenses and thereby offer an enjoyable and relaxing weekend to more students. The aim of the club is to give each member an opportunity of spending two or more weekends with his own age group at the Gordon Clement Camp. The camp is situated eight miles southwest of the school. The cabin, which is equipped with running water and electricity, can accommodate eight or ten boys and a master. The boys eat three meals away from the school. In the early fall and spring many boys found the pond most relaxing to escape the heat. About fifteen groups visited the camp this year. 228 THE DIAL 1954 Standing: HANLON, A. Bynns, 1-uRR1s.

All new members are taught the basic principles of aeronautical design and construction. Movies are shown on the latest research developments, thus keeping the organization very up- to-date. ln addition, filmstrips discussing all the various aspects of flying have been used. The club has also been fortunate enough to secure a few guest speakers who gave very interesting lectures. Field trips have been planned by the group which will aid in developing a well-rounded knowl- edge of aeronautics. After the basic concepts are mastered, all those interested are given an opportunity to put to use what they have learned in the link trainer. This trainer gives the participant a chance to fly by instrument under almost real conditions. Under the advisorship of Mr. Bowers and Mr. Iackman, the club meets every Sunday at 2:00 in the link room in the basement of the science building. 229 THE DIAL 1954 Bark Row: HILLYER, astray, Mayo, HEASLEY, w.

It wasn't diilicult to keep the gang hep since the club owns a large supply of platters, which are generally spun on Sunday mornings between chapel and lunch. In these meetings the relative merits of the records are discussed along with the various styles of different jazz artists. This year Pete Burke was President, and Dan Ray handled the Vice- President's chores, while Mr. Demaree was the club's faculty advisor. The club hopes to take a trip to Philadelphia this spring, but the obstacle of permission has not yet been surmounted. Not only did the Iazz Club enjoy another interesting year, but it also must be remembered that of all the organizations on the campus this outfit is undoubtedly the swingiest. 230 X s I N DI L-LUG 'A-MMI' su 'Coin 1 - gfw .Jiffy va ,AQ .gag 'YN A6317 I ' X M M- Wx ?

We ask for Thine especial blessing, O Lord, upon this group of men who go out today from our city on the Hill, it may be to far places, under alien skies, and in strange lands. Guard them, we beseech Thee, and if it may be, keep them safe from all perils and dangers of this life, both now and evermore. Above all, grant them the high courage and stout hearts that make men willing to give and not count the cost, to fight and not heed the wounds, to labor and not ask for any reward, save that of knowing they do Thy will, so that men shall say of them in years unborn, on many a distant field, 'the children of The Hill have passed this way.' Direct us, O Lord, in all our doings, that in all our works we may glorify Thy Holy Name, and Hnally by Thy mercy ob- tain everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. In memory of those boys who lost their lives, this page is reverently given by Ellis Mills of Pottstown, in confidence that you, the Class of 1954, will fulfill the mighty vision of The Hill. 272 PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS PRINCETON - NEW JERSEY I n :PHIQI H ffgq ffi 5152:-2 - 4 ' Triniers I0 the Dia! ie airview BOOSTERS Oil City .Beaver Fall s -Allison Park 'Bradford EIUIUS .Tyrone Sewickley Coraopolis - 'Altoona Heights fttsburg ' Wanzes urg 21151 Sewickley Ifiechanicsville Marietta , C ck Reed John Oliver Jon Shirley Charles Rich Phil Patton Frank Richardson Carlisle Drew Heistand Jim Tait John Foster John Fowler Henry Rich Bob Walker Coraopolis Heights Camp Hill Lancaster Bob McKean Ernie Burch Mark I-filler George Winter Pittsburg Harrisburg Henry Long 011 City Don Irwin John Pearson Charles Brown Jim Berry walmgsburg Lou Lehrman Schuykill Haven Beaver Falls George Barthalomew Meade Geisel Karl Albert Henry Ingram Bradford Wheeler Daniels Andy Byers Allison Park Lee 1-Iallory Gil Lowenthal Centralia Steve Jennings Igone Norman Rosen Frank Duffy Sewickley C arles Wilson Hershey Ashland John Wells gl toona Sam Hinkle woody Bracey Henry Gardner Tom Norton Lykens Orwigsburg Ben Delafield Mike Zeldin Steve Pollack 2 BOOSTERS Phoenixville Lansdale Pottstoym Alex Barto Rick Butt Kumi'-rt wienexe chu xmas YLVHNIH' ,Clarks Green 'Clarks Summit 'NSW wnee-on Castle the'De1aware -Hazlet Centraliav ,Ashland .0rwigsburg Schuykill Havens ethlehem 'LYKSUS nZionsvi11e ,Coopersburg Bechtelsville Schwenksville v H 1 'Eel-Shay wyomissing wvnnewvodf- Doylestwn arr s ur Mechanicsvillec C.
