All of us at Westminster who have been privileged to have been here at the school with him are aware of the depth of our loss and the magnitude of the good for- tune of The De Vaux School where he had become Headmaster. For twenty-three years Mr. Kennedy has served our school. During the past four years, he has been the Assistant Headmaster, but his influence in the school ranged far beyond the duties of his position. Mr. Keyes pointed out how it was literally impossible to enumerate Mr. Kennedyls accomplishments be- cause the great intangibles always present were the man's character, integrity, and spirit. His policy of no compromise with right and wrong has helped make Westminster the school it has become. Even those of us in the student body who have come under his judgement could not fail to admire and respect a man who never seemed to deviate from his prin- ciples. But let it not be thought that Mr. Kennedy was all strictness and severity. Justice was always tempered with sympathy-intelligent sympathy. Without listing all of his duties and activities it should be noted that his interests were almost limit- less where the school and church were concerned. As house master of Andrews House, head of the His- tory Department, coach of the first hockey team, and college advisor, his work brought him into close contact with almost every student in the school. Interested in boys, the Kennedy's have always taken a corridor. Mrs. Kennedy now teaches at the Renbrook School and is very prominent in town af- fairs. Mr. Kennedy, before taking over his Assistant Headmaster post, coached several younger teams. Even with the pressing work now, he always finds time to coach the First hockey team each year. There is no doubt that the Kennedys will miss all their friends - faculty members, students, graduates, and many others with whom they have so long been acquainted. However, as Mrs. Kennedy said, Our purpose in leaving is to share with others some of the experiences and pleasures which we have so richly enjoyed here. Westminster will be going with us. The Theomenos would like to wish the Kennedys the best for the coming years in their home. E! e ? ,Q wb Q 3.

As usual, some of these things were accomplished this year by us, others were not. As we began to realize how close the end of the year was, we found ourselves reviewing what we had accomplished, what we had not, and in general, how we had handled what was expected of us as a Sixth Form. What is expected of a group of people in a responsible position is, for the most part, a group contribution. This group contribution is only as good as the individual members decide to make it. This is a decision for which there is no prize awarded, and which public recogni- tion of a form's achievements rarely acknowledges. There is something missing from the commencement exercises, something which the normal achievement awards cannot encompass because of the very nature of the awards. These awards cannot recognize the number of persons who have as individuals, and also as a unit, con- tributed to the school community. Since the Sixth Form is expected to contribute to the school through fulfilment of its responsibilities, this distinct type of contri- bution lies within the possible achievements of a Sixth Form. Though only rarely outstanding, the Sixth Form contribution to athletics has been a steady and diversified endeavor. The strength of our teams has not been in the individual, but rather in a combination of individual efforts, team spirit, and team cooperation. It is diHicult to compare the quality of an activity of one year to that of another, but wherever the contrast lies, this yearis extracurricular activities have certainly given an excellent account of themselves. The emphasis of the Sixth Formers, as the heads of activities, has been to teach and show, as well as direct and organize. Academically, the form has maintained only an average standing with no one at one extreme end of the scale. This year's Senior Class can, however, say with pride that it is the first form in a great while to have one hundred percent of its members graduating. Throughout the year it has not been the prefects alone who directed the form's course, but each Sixth Former who has worked to establish the form's contribution, whether in athletics, activities, or academics. The form emphasized that each mem- ber exercise his responsibility to the school. Since it is as members of a corridor that the 'Sixth Form has the greatest contact with other forms, it is there that they have the greatest influence on the under- forrners. It is there that the Sixth Form must provide an active example of han- dling human situations, of living with people. From the experience of being respon- sible for others on the corridor, a Sixth Former can better know his corridor master, the underformers, and finally himself. He can better know himself because he has the opportunity of doing something, perhaps of creating an atmosphere on the corridor, from which he can experience part of himself. In seeing himself from this vantage, the Sixth Form can better know himself. To the other forms, we express our thanks for their cooperation and spirit which has helped to make our last year a rewarding one. As we review the entire school year, we can again see ourselves, first as indi- viduals, and then as a form. For this opportunity of achieving a unique contribution, our thanks go to the faculty. 21 JOHN RUSSEL GOW III Jack Sirnsbury, Connecticut March 1, 1941 Year entered - 1955.

It was easy. - ----.-.,- hi' F46 ' 4 Class Prophecy g The living room was Filled with the noise and cigarette smoke of thirty-two men. A phonograph in the corner blared forth a new jazz record of the times. Jim Silverthorne, abstract painter and owner of the f'Hideout,,' as he called his weirdly decorated house, surveyed the crowded room and chuckled. How they have changed, he thought. Surveying the crowd, he was amazed at the celebrities in the group. His eyes first fell upon a group loudly discussing the automobiles of the day. There was Eben Graves, designer and driver of the year's Indianapolis winner with an average speed of one hundred and eighty-seven miles per hour, pointing out the advantages of American auto industry to Eric F ris, vice-president of Swedenls Volvo, Inc. Standing beside them was Dick Fridman, president of the Cadillac division of General Motors. Dick had driven in from Detroit in his new creation, the largest and lowest car on the market. Jim's gaze next fell on four men, all noted authors. Bill Carey, whose new book, Church in Government, is currently on the top ten, talked to Sty Wainwright about his ideas in his book for students, The Ease of Taking Exams. Cro Fox, author of famous children,s bedtime stories, stood quietly aside smoking his pipe. Al Griffith vainly tried to interview the two for his newspaper, but was unsuccessful. Standing next to the phonograph was a group of the nation's big executives. Boy, thought jim, would I like to have their money. There was Bill Baker, newly elected president of Bethle- hem Steel. Bill, it seems, had worked his way up through the ore-boats to his new position. Next to him stood Ted Kubler, president of Beautyrest Mattresses, proudly pointing out the advantages of sleep to Joe Peppard. Joe had recently made the newspapers because of his three day and night filibuster of the Kansas Legislature on the issue of the driving age. His argument had convinced everybody and the driving age in Kansas was now twelve. Slouched in a large easy chair was Ding McNeil, discoverer of the McNeil Calcium Vita- min Pill. Ding personally had just finished a world tour in an effort to sell his new product. Leaning against the mantle was Jack Van Nest, president of Armour Star Meat corporation. Jack was in the middle of trying to make a pure beef, greaseless hot dog. With him was Toby Kent, publicity manager of the First-place Washington Senators, listening to the baseball game on the radio. Leigh john- stone stood looking out the window. He had just flown in from Califomia where his sunglass in- dustry was working overtime to fill the orders. The teaching profession was well represented at the gathering. Bill Pite had recently taken over teaching physical education at Connecticutls Col- lege for Women and seemed to enjoy his work. Bill Johnston was now teachng child pyschology at the University of Rochester and was also work- ing to decrease the amount of delinquency in the country. P. H. DeLeon, head of the linguistic de- partment at Yale, sat talking to Gil Schroeder, writer of Philadelphia's new smash hit, From Farm to Society. Gil was telling P. H. how he managed to mix the country and society language in his play. Cricket Brumder, marriage counselor, was sit- ing in the study talking earnestly to Jack Gow. It seems Jackie was having some marriage difficul- ties as he was already married to his fourth wife, and Crick was trying to give Jack some pointers. Bob Diemand, fashion designer for Brooks Broth- ers, was showing off his newest creation to Johnny Sexton, a wealthy land owner in Florida. Johnny had made his millions by selling underwater land for people to drain, themselves. John McDowell, head of the probation committee for CBA towered over Terry Cox, hockey player for the Boston Bruins and famous for his lengthy stays in the penalty box. The topic of their discussion was naturally ringers in sports. Peter Hewlett, Play- boy's famous illustrator, sat at the bar talking over old times with John Capito, disk-jockey for Chara- leston's radio station. John was noted for his con- tinuous playing of rock 'n-roll with no advertising breaks. Phip Hosmer and Elton Motch sat beside the television discussing the decline of T. V. popularity. Phip was advisor for the religious series and Elton prided himself in being modera- tor of the comedy show, Watch Your Waistline. A taxi screamed to a halt outside and in poured the missing four. Tony Emery, famous African explorer, led the way, followed closely by Mike Stanwood, master of ceremonies at the Lido in Paris, johnny DePasqua1e, just off the roulette wheel at Monte Carlo, and Dave Walter, inventor of a new hair tonic in Paris. Jim looked down over the proceedings and made sure everyone was there. Then he slowly made his way down the stairs, checked his paint- ings to make sure they were straight, and hurried on to join the crowd. Class Does most for Westminster . .

Silver- The Student Council The Student Council is a group compiled of all the form oflicers in the school under the advisory counsel of the headrnaster. This group meets fre- quently throughtout the school year to discuss mat- ters concerning the student body. The members often discuss forrn policies, school aims, and other intangi- ble matters which are then passed on and discussed further in form meetings. In this body the members are all put on equal footing in order to obtain and honor the opinions of all the oflicers as representatives of their forms. The purpose of this body is to pool and discuss the ideas of each form a.nd also of the faculty as represented by the faculty advisor. The group has specific advisory privileges to the faculty. The members can discuss and vote on rules and policies concerning school life. Their ideas are then taken before the faculty by Mr. Keyes and the ideas go through any amendments deemed neces- sary by the faculty, and voted on. The experience and results of such participation in the executive workings of the school have proved beneficial to both the student council members as representatives of their forms and to the individual forms as they pro- duce the ideas which are used in student council meet- ings. The objective of the student council this year has been to stimulate unity throughout the forms and the school as a whole. The council encourages form proj- ects, form participation in school activities, athletic enthusiasm, and a pride in the school. Heading the Student Council this year were the sixth form officers: James Silverthorne, Head Pre- fect' John Gow Junior Prefect' and School Prefects Crozer Fox, John Sexton, and llflichael Stanwood. 46 FRONT ROW, left to right: Keogh, Shipway, Petrelli, Pomeroy, Ahrens, Turton, R.

The Fifth Form Not being able to find much interest or unity in its members, this year's Fifth Form got off to a slow start. Being divided into corridors made it difficult for the form to get together to form a unit, but when the responsibility of procteri gg study hall was placed upon its shoulders, the form gradually came to itself stimulated by this first project. The Fifth Form offi- cers, Bob Silverthorne, Lexy F ederbush, Larry Fors- dick, Buzzy Ahrens, Tom Turton, and Henry Hall have tried to provide the necessary leadership to maintain the unity and interest in form activities. Athletically, Sam Pierson and Mal Douglas will be the co-captains of the football team, Jay Patrick will lead the basketball team, Tom Turton will captain the swimming team, and Henry Hall will take the re- sponsibility of the soccer and hockey teams. There is a wide variation in the individual inter- ests among the Fifth Formers as shown by active participation in every organization. The form's in- terest lies in the News, Martlet, Themenos, Dramatic Association, John Hay Society, Religious Discussion Group, Harmonaires, Choral Club, and the Discus- sion Group. The co-operation and endeavor which the form put forth in these organizations is character- istic of their willingness and desire to prove their abilities. This form is full of ambition and desire, and as their Sixth Form year approaches, the Fifth Form is preparing to accept the various obligations and re- sponsibilities of their senior year.

The Fourth Form The class of 1962 was led by President Grem Hall, Vice-President Tim Stevens, and Officers Jody Proc- ter, Rob Carson, Chip Swett, and Barry Williams. This form, the largest in the school developed into a hard working unit during the school year. Scholastically, the form was headed by Rob Carson and Creighton Peet. The form contributed to many extracurricular activities such as the Dramatic As- sociation, the News, and the Yearbook. A few stu- dents became members of the John Hay Society and the Discussion Group. Athletically, this yearis Fourth Form contributed to many of the upper squads. During the Fall Term Chip Swett, Dan Calderwood, Tim Stevens, and Leigh McMakin played on the First Football Team, Dave Yao and Bob Gray were starters on the First Soccer Team, and Jody Procter captained the Thirds in football. In the winter, Doug Campbell, Len Dev- ereaux, and Kit Delmarsh grabbed starting posi- tions on the Second Basketball Squad, Bob Gray, Jody Procter, and Grem Hall were members of the Second Hockey Squad captained by Stormy Milne. During the Spring Term Grem Hall excelled on the First Tennis Team while Jim Fulcher did a com- mendable job on the Track Team as did Barry Wil- liams and Larry Wilson. Tim Stevens, Chip Swett, and Dan Calderwood held starting positions on the First Baseball Team. This year's Fourth Form also contributed many new ideas and a great deal of support to the many other aspects of school life, and tried to make their school a better working unit.

Cf the fifty-six boys in the two forms, only six were day students. Gary Stanton, Parkey Shearer, and Peter Dilks led the Third Form academically, while Steve Knight was hrst in the Second Form. On the whole, The two forms have improved scholastically throughout the whole year. This group of boys is strong athletically, as evi- denced by the fact that they were represented on every varsity team this year. Many of the boys that played on the lower squads also showed great prom- ise for future years. In the fall Rusty Bunker represented the forms on the football team and Jim Delafxeld, Lowe, Vincent.

Roger Patenaude and Rusty Bunker were basketball lettennen and Spike Richey and Parkey Shearer got their letters in hockey. Rob Conland swam the breaststroke on the swim- ming team and John Henry and Gordon Baxter ex- celled in the freestyle. Roger Patenaude played on the First Baseball Squad while Steve Nostrand after a short illness joined the First Tennis Squad. Mike Mitchell and Parkey Shearer participated on the track team. The forms decided to wait until next year to do a form project, however, they helped with odd jobs when needed. These two forms consist of a well rounded group of boys, who will be of great assistance to the school in future years. 49 M-Q., , Wx, J' sg 7k Q K I Ni fi-'W 2 hx ffa 5' Q.

It has already acquired two new metal desks, and has plans for some filing cabinets, and typewriters. The new publica- tions room has been a tremendous asset to this grow- ing publication, in that it has supplied a feeling of unity and organization. This year's board has done its best job to put out a larger and ever improving Yearbook. The Business Manager, P. H. DeLeon, and the Assistant Business Manager, Jack Gow, have done an excellent job in collecting the funds that make the larger book possible. The Photographic Editor, John Durbin, has done a very commendable job supplying the book with the needed pictures, and also filling in wherever needed. As Sportls Editor, Larry Conner has done a fine job. Make-Up Editor, Gil Schroeder and Copy Editor, Terry Cox, both contributed a great deal. Schroeder was directly responsible for gathering all material for the book. Cox was a great help in as- signing articles and working with the healers. Finally, the Editor in Chief, Jack Van Nest, did a magnificent job, really giving of himself for the good of the or- ganization. The Yearbook board has tried to give the school a book everyone can be proud of. We hope we have accomplished this and left the school with a living memento of the senior class. 54 FRONT ROW, left to right: Graves CManaging Editorl.

The News Board This year the Wlestminster NEWS continued to present a report of school life and put forth a re- sponsible student opinion. The paper maintained a high standard which was possible only by a tremen- dous eflort on the part of the editors. An obvious characteristic of the board was that their interests and desires were beyond their physical capacity. Many editors had other responsibilities in diflierent activi- ties, and a limited amount of time hampered their NEXVS work. Editors made a determined effort to make the NEYVS a student publication of value, a paper that the school would enjoy and be proud of. The board desired to expand coverage and help strengthen stu- dent consciousness of world aflairs by editor's in- terpretation of certain events and situations. A stronger emphasis was placed on school problems, successes, and hopes in order to create a wider inter- est in the NEYVS. The editors desired the paper to become a device through which students would come to know their school better and in this way try to create a more lasting school spirit. On the financial side, Business Chairman Eric Fris and Advertising Manager Bill Carey produced a balanced budget of 84000. Bill Johnston brought circulation to a new high while the Managing Edi- tors, Eben Graves and Cricket Brumder, handled the editoral work. The NEYVS was planned. organized. and run by Editor-in-Chief Alan Griffith.

The First issue of the Martlet this year featured an article by James Silverthorne on his summer in France. This article was supplemented by sketches drawn by the author. Also featured in the issue were an article by Patrick DeLeon on his trip to Russia, with pictures, and an article by John Pome- roy on British Guiana and the problems facing the people under a failing government. The material for the article was taken from Johnis observations as he worked with the people during the summer. Featured in the second issue was an art section spotlighting the winning VVestminster entries in the Housatonic Art Contest. There was also a short essay from the History 6 Course. The third issue featured an episode by a student in English 6. This year's board was comprised of Copy Editor Ted Kubler, Make-up Editor John DePasquale, Printing Editor Sam Gawthrop, Business Manager John Capito, Contributions Editor Jim Silverthorne, and Editor-in-Chief John Sexton. Under the generous direction of Mr. Olmsted, the faculty advisor, The Martlzft has done much to re- Hect the creative work of the student body at West- minister School.

The Dramatic Association The Dramatic Association, a group of boys inter- ested in either acting, set design, or business, pro- duced two plays for the first time in the Association's history. The first play a comedy, was 'llf Men Played Cards as Wlomen Dow by George Kaufman. It was a one act play and was performed on Dance Weekend. Four actors were required, those being Gil Schroeder, Henry Hall, Eben Graves, and Ted Kubler. The play provided valuable experience as well as great fun for the group. Monserrat', by Lillian Hellman was the yearls main production. This two act play had a cast of thirteen. Two girls from Oxford, Helen Krieble and Mary Foote, played the female parts. The two lead- ing roles were played by John Pomeroy and Peter Dunbar. The play took place in the Gcneral's Palace during the Spanish Occupation of Valencia, Vene- zuela in the year 1812. The setting was the outer room of the Gencral's Palace. The set design was done by the president of the association, James Silverthorne. The production staff, headed by Larry Forsdick, worked from April 6th to the day before the production to complete the most difficult set ever to be built by the Dramatic Association. This yearls organization was a smooth running group. The members of the Association are very grateful to Mr. Meyers for his patience and his tre- mendous ability to maintain a well run production from beginning to end. 57 FRONT ROW, left to right: Ellis, W.

Singing anthems in chapel ranging from 15th Century Polyphony through Negro Spir- ituals to 20th Century sacred music, the Club proved its willingness to work for perfection. The year's chapel singing was highlighted by the Christmas Candlelight Service. After determinedly practicing for the service and memorizing words for six new Christ- mas songs, the choir was able to do an excellent job. Under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Gilman and the leadership of President Mike Stanwood, the Choral Club also sang songs ranging from Latin love songs to the unoflicial Australian National Anthem, 'fwaltzing Matilda, to a Russian Folk Song sung in Russian. The club participated in five concerts throughout the year. The first of these concerts was held at the Challiee School for Girls. The Choral Club went to Chaffee and, after both groups had sung, enjoyed a few hours of dancing. just before Spring Vacation, the VVestover Glee Club came to Wlestminster for another concert-dance. After singing individually, the groups gathered to sing a medley of songs from Oklahorra and a song by Brahms, iixVOHClfOillS Cool Thou Woodland Quietf, which proved to be quite successful. After Spring Vacation, the club went to the Ethel l'Valker School for a very enjoyable concert- dance. It also gave a concert for the fathers on Father's Vleekend and, as a Hnale to a very busy and successful season, sang at the traditional Step Sing at the end of the year. The willingness of each boy to work hard plus the never ending patience and guidance of Mr. and Mrs. Gilman made this year a very worthwhile one for the Choral Club. John 3Y Society FRONT ROW, left to right: De- Leon KFirst Vice Presidentj, Brum- der fPresidentj, Kent fSecretaryj, SECOND ROW: Carey KTreasurerj, Johnston fSecond Vice Presidentj. This year, the John Hay Society has instituted several new policies. The most immediately apparent of these is the reduction in its size. Hoping to promote efficiency and speed in meetings, the John Hay added only eleven new members this year bringing the total to twenty-five as compared to thirty-four last year. Led by the Vestry consisting of president, Cricket Brumderg first vice-president, P. H. DeLeong second vice-president, William Johnston, secretary, Toby Kent, and treasurer, William Carey , the society dis- cussed and acted upon such things as help to par- entless children in the form of personal entertain- ment, and the Foster Parent's Plan which resulted in the school's supporting a foster child for the first time. In addition to these achievements, the society spent a good deal of time discussing various pleas to which Sunday offerings go and discussing ways in which the society could better help the school. An effort was made by the society to let the stu- dents know more exactly where their money went. Towards this end, speeches were made and a special letter was prepared for each student which explained briefly some of the typical recipients of our contri- butions. The Vestry, along with the Prefects, took on the responsibility of morning prayers once again this year. Also, as in past years, the Society attended religious conferences throughout the area, including the weekend-long Northfield Conference in Northfield. Mass.

The Discussion Group The Discussion Group this year has had a fruitful and inspiring year. The group was interested in dis- cussing current affairs to find possible solutions to problems and to provide valuable insight in regard to the magnitude and complexity of every-day af- fairs. The year was highlighted by a talk given by the Reverend Mr. Robert Sloan Ciflin, Chaplain of Yale University. Mr. Coffin spoke of the complacency that typifies today's students in important affairs. In regu- lar meetings, the Discussion Group talked over such issues as labor unions and the sliding of U.S. morality. The second big event of the year was the annual debate with the Loomis School held at Westminster, In the debate, the Discussion Group defended the Eisenhower Administration's handling of the Latin- American crisis. As preparation for the debate with Loomis, they devoted one of their meetings to a mock debate among themselves. The president of the group this year was Eben Graves. He headed the Executive Committee of which Sixth Formers Alan Griffith and William Carey and Fifth Former Lexy Federbush were members. Graves moderated at all the meetings except the mock-debate at which time Carey remained neutral. Over the spring vacation, the group read Lord of the Flies which they discussed at length in an April meeting. The book, concerning the corruption of democratic government, made a very interesting dis- cussion topic. Mr. Nolde, the group's faculty ad- visor, took over that position after spring vacation when a school appointment made it impossible for Mr. Hinman to continue with the group. Mr. Nolde had been present at most of the meetings throughout the year. The Discussion Group hadia fine year, a year of enthusiasm and enjoyment by all.

Religious Discussion Group This yearls Religious Discussion Group, advised by Mr. Bailey, made a cursory study of symbolism in re- ligious architecture. First the group had to familiarize itself with new terminology. After establishing a basis for comprehensible discussion, different mem- bers did research in their particular field of interest. However, sources of information were somewhat limited, and profound research was handicapped. After acquiring some information a member would discuss his Hndings with the rest of the group. Fre- quently the discussions dealt with the causes and ideas for some symbol. At one meeting, Mr. Bailey presented an imaginary situation in which a society had a habit of congregating reverently in a box-shaped structure. The problem was to analyze the charac- teristics of the society, and ultimately derive a reason for the usage of the box, and various symbols in the box. The goal for the year was to apply what the group had learned to the proposed new chapel. The plans were obtained and the members discussed the chapel. The building is a simple structure, and symbolism is conventional. Though this symbolism is not radical, it presented a suitable exercise for what knowledge the group possessed. The Harmonaires FRONT ROW, left to right: Hosmer, Gawthrop, Fox, Stanwood, Patrick, DePasquale, Elis, Fris. The Harmonaires, Westminster's elite singing group, again played a major role in this yearls social entertainment. They performed at all of the dances here and away from school, as well as at the banquets and at Fathers' weekend. The harmonaires were also one of the high-lights of Dance weekend. This year's group consisted of three veterans of last yearis Harmonaires and five new members. President Mike Stanwood and Cro Fox were the first bases, while Phip Hosmer and Sam Gawthrop sang low base notes. Eric Fris and Pat Ellis, the first tenors, with John DePasquale and jay Patrick, the second tenors, combined their efforts to complement the won- derful job done by the bases. The result was the superb harmony which was characteristic of this year's group. This year the Harmonaires had an informal get- together with singing groups like their own from other schools. The group journeyed to Kent School on May l. The guests of honor were the WiHienpoofs of Yale University. The Harmonaires gave an excellent account of themselves and at the end of the day, some considered them superior among the groups from small schools. The repertoire of the Harmonaires this year was smaller than in the past, for the group strove for greater perfection in its arrangements. Two popular songs were tried as an experiment and were en- thusiastically accepted. It was only through the unending efforts of Mrs. Gilman and the leadership of Mike Stanwood that the Harmonaires this year were so successful. FRONT ROW, left to right: Willard, Stratton, Whitney, N.

The School Band The school year of 1959360 has seen a great im- provement in our school band. Under the able direc- tion of Mr. Gilman, the group took on a number of new members as well as adding three new instruments to its collection. This year the faculty contributed greatly to the success of the band. Four masters, Mr. Hopley, Mr. Nolde, Mr. Meyers, and Mr. Jackson participated, making this band the best the school has seen. With the addition of the masters and a few new members, the total number of players has reached twenty. As a result, the balance, or the relationship between one type of instrument and another, has been improved because of the greater depth. The improved balance and depth is exemplified by the fact that the band includes six clarinets, five trumpets, and two trombones. Besides several familiar numbers, four new marches were added to the band's repertoire. Mr. Gilman's arrangements of 'fGridiron Ghostsj' 'gOn the Mall,', Across the Fields, and 'Commanding Officers were played, bringing the number of the marches to seven. The band has been more active in the school's sports program. They provided entertainment at most of the first team football games, moreover, at all the home varsity basketball games the band con- tributed greatly to the cheering with its performances. In addition, the group led the school in its march around the campus celebrating the Pomfret football victory. and also at Christmas, as the school sang carols and walked around the campus. 63 f F i 3 X I Q55 A4 t , s Lf gs' mm. fi S1 , QQ?

The Dance Committee On October 10, l959, the Wlestminster Dance Committee, headed by Mike Stanwood, assisted greatly by Mrs. Keyes, and backed by the school, opened the fall Msocial seasonw on Wlilliams Hill. The guests were 70 Farmington girls, who had come to watch the football game with Canterbury, have tea, buffet dinner, and finally dance to a variety of record- ings. In order to satisfy the many tastes of the danc- ers, the dance music this year became increasingly more varied by the use of a phonograph instead of the usual tape recorder. NVestrninster's next dance was with the Ethel Wlalker School on November 21. The first dance of the winter term was again held at YVestminsterg this time with St. Margaretls School. Dick Clark from Philadelphia seemed to help out tre- mendously with his TV entertainment from 7:30- 8:30, and Mr. Keyes, study was filled to the brim with screaming teen-agers. Later on in the evening, singing was provided by St. Margaret's 'iSilis', and Wlest- minster's HI'I21l'1YlOHZ1lI'CS..i For the first Glee Club con- cert of the year, 60 Westminster boys traveled to the Chafee School on January 31, and after their singing, there was dancing. Several innovations made this yearis Dance Wleek- end somewhat dififerent. First of all, the date was moved back to February 5-7. The usual time. March 5-7, had too many other scheduled events, and also, the early would help break up the long winter tenn. Girls came from all over the country to see their dates. Swimming was abandoned this year, not only be- cause of the big Saturday athletic schedule, but also because of the girls, concern for perfect hair styles for Friday night. A short play, lf Men Played Cards as Wornen Do, was seen before a movie. Informal dancing followed the movie. On Saturday night, Dick Linson's band truly made the evening one to remember. Three weeks later, on February 27, the N'Vestover and Wlestminster Glee Clubs presented a concert in the latter's gym. During dinner, many couples were found in the Keyes' study watching the telecast of the VVinter Olympics from Squaw Valley. In the crowded Spring Term, the Westminster 7 Choral Club was the guest of Ethel lValker's on April 30. After a joint concert, dancing was held in the Ofvm where a local band and the lVestminster Ui 5 Jazz Trio supplied the music. 68 f 'QQ-X -'KL W. ' ' Q 3 5 ' K A ygx J.

It was a well-balanced team consisting of a group of boys who wanted to play football and who wanted to win. The teamis strength lay within its defensive squad, as evidenced by the fact that no team was able to score on the Hilltoppers after the first game with Canterbury. Even in this game, Canterbury was unable to obtain a first down in the second half. Dur- ing the season Westminster scored 104 points, while its opponents scored only 18. Johnstone, Sexton, Pierson and McMakin were four players that helped stilfen the teamis forward line. Coach Squibb said that this was the best line with which he had ever worked. Gow, Fris, Chentow and Wendell all turned in excellent jobs as defensive backs. W .... ..i. v s.

Douglas and Kubler were two of the best interior linemen. The teamls ends, McDowell and Pite, both had very good seasons, doing their share of scoring and tackling. In the backfield, Gow did a superior job of quarterbacking. Fox, playing full- back, supplied the power in the team's running at- tack, always driving for the needed extra yardage. The speed in the teamis running attack was supplied by Connor. This fast elusive halfback scored at least once in every game. This team had relatively few returning lettermen, but it did have the will to work hard. Under the guid- ance of the coaches, Mr. Squibb and Mr. Hovey, the group developed into a team that can be proud of its record, Q4 wins, 1 lossj. 74 Football Captains Jack Gow, Leigh Johnstone Football Coaches Mr. Hovey, Mr. Squibb QQ rift, 4. n 52 W Wi 1'?:.'3' Qs? ff i -1 HS Q 4 Q 'ss VL 1' ,- 6 2 3 Q 5 lg?

The team, led by Co-Captains Tom Turton and Richard Fridman, was strong on defense. Turton, Fridman, Scruton, and Silverthorne were spirited, hard-fighting linemen. Brooks was a very good defensive line- backer. . The backfield was not exceptionally fast, but they worked well together. Sutro turned in a fine job at quarterback, and Ball did very well at halfback. This team, coached by Mr. Montgomery and Mr. Smith, was small but spirited. They worked very hard, and can be proud of the fact that every score was a team effort. The 1959 Third Football Team had a record of two wins and two defeats. This group was also strong on defense. Captain Procter at center and Shearer at left guard were two outstanding linemen. The team had hard-running backs who improved as the season progressed. Squibb proved to be a fine quarterback and defensive halfback, while Richey turned in a fine season as a ball carrier and punter. The team was coached by Mr. Jackson and Mr. Bailey and showed excellent spirit. It can be justifiably proud of its record. The Fourth Football Team, coached by Mr. Nolde and Mr. Hopley, won half of its games. The team consisted of a group of boys who had a sincere love of the game, which is unusual at this level. Carson stood out on defense and Levy on offense. Speir and DuPont both turned in good seasons. This team fought hard, showing promise for the years ahead. With the improvement that maturity and increased experience will bring, Westminster may look forward to many good seasons ahead. 3, Q,--A - v, Ken ,V,, M A 4 ,Qi !

U Hopkins . . . 1 This year's soccer team, led by Gil Schroeder and John DePasquale, had extremely good spirit. The team had several returning letterrnen, but few of them possessed much playing experience. At the be- ginning of the season, many boys were tried at dif- ferent positions in an eflort to make the most of the available material. Therefore, several players found themselves in unfamiliar positions. These boys had to work very hard to build the team that soon took shape. The team had an excellent line which handled the ball very well but did not have great success in scoring. De Pasquale was very fast and an excellent ball handler. Friedman was fast and had a good foot, Westminster ...... 0 Kingswood . . . . . 2 Westminster .,.... 0 Avon ..... . . . 2 Westminster ...... 3 Gunnery . . . . . 3 while McNeil was an aggressive player with good spirit. The defense was not long on speed, but it was strong and effective. Schroeder proved very good at center fullback, sporting a very good foot. Toby Kent also had a very good season on defense. At halfback, Walter was a flashy player who knew the game and gave the team considerable strength. Hall, playing goalie, turned in an excellent season considering the little experience he had. He made a tremendous ef- fort, and greatly helped the team. Through the guidance of Mr, Clough, Mr. Wil- braham, and Mr. Gilman, the group became a unit that worked well and fought hard.

The First Basketball Team Wfith the return of Captain John McDowell for his final year at the pivot and the addition of Bill Pite, the team balanced out their attack with two Fourth formers and one Third former. The team proved their teamwork and caliber of play, turning in a 1343 sea- son. Bill Pite's one-hander and jump from the corner were unstoppable. Rusty Bunker, a freshman letter- man, had a steady floor game which was much needed. Throughout the latter part of the season Barry Wil- liams' great job on the boards helped carry the club. Chip Sweets' dribbling and driving layups, and Tim Stevens' all around play gave Wlestminster a formid- able back court combination. Several newcomers added to this years squad in- cluded: Dan Calderwood, Roger Patenaude, Lexy Federbush, Jay Patrick, and John Capito. Of these Jay Patrick and Dan Calderwood are boys to be watched in the coming year. Calderwood,s jump shot measured up to many of the starters, while Patrick did a nice job on the boards. The 1960 Hilltoppers played a 16 game schedule, ten of them being against schools of greater enroll- ment. The season started with Suffield Academy on January 9th and wound up with Taft on March 2nd.

The Fourth Basketball Team Lower Basketball The Second Basketball team, coached by Mr. Ho- vey and captained by Jake Lowe, turned out a win- ning season with seven wins and six losses. A lack of height and inexperience hampered the team from the outset, but Steve Wasley under the boards and Lorry Speir with his long Hat jump shots gave the team the needed spark to win. Len Devereux, who was high scorer with 149 points, proved valuable on the fast breaks. The year was a hard fought one, with five games being won by a matter of less than four points. The Third Basketball team, coached by Mr. Smith and captained by Steve Squibb, ran up a seven loss and four win season. The team proved to be well prepared by winning their first three games. High scorer was John Kilian, closely followed by Dick True and Bucky Hallowell. The team was erratic in skill but steady in winning spirit. The Fourth Basketball team, coached by Mr. Bur- dett and captained by John Vincent, won two of its six games. Bill Dugdale and Nelson Van Atta backed up high scorer John Vincent at just the right mo- ments to close the gap on many teams. The lower teams had a very successful season in spite of two losing seasons. There were, for the most part, more than just five boys capable of playing the first string positions.

Hindered by the warm weather, the team lost valuable practice time, espe- cially before games. Jack Gow was very consistent and a real team player. He helped tremendously with his timely pass- ing and scoring. Terry Cox, playing with Gow on the first line, was the team's highest scorer. His skating and stick handling made him one of the most valu- able players. The left wing, John DePasquale, turned in a very good season as a play maker. Lee McMakin, the nucleus of the second line, was a very eager player who was always in the right place at the right time. Also on this line was Eric Fris, who showed a great deal of determination. Bob Silverthorne, the right wing, had a tremendous will to win. On the third line Larry Forsdick, Spike Richey, Buzzy Ahrens, and Darby Anderson all played a good season. The defense, consisting of Captain Grozer Fox and Mal Douglas, was probably the most effective part of the team. Gro Fox was very active throughout the season, continually breaking up plays and some- times netting a goal. Mal Douglas succeeded in holding down a number of attempts at the cage as well as scoring. The goalie, Henry Hall, next year's captain, though lacking experience, did much more than his share of stopping the opposition. The second string goalie, Bob Diemand, also played very well dur- ing the season. The year was, in many respects, a building year in which a great deal of experience was gained by many of the younger members of the tearn. The prospect for next season looks good because of the number of returning lettermen. Hockey Captain Cro Fox.

Lower Hockey Team Due to a severe lack of ice, the three lower squads were able to play only a portion of their planned schedules. The desire to make the best of what chances the teams got to be on ice made Westminster squads a hard group to beat. The Second Hockey team, coached by Mr. Jackson and captained by Stormy Milne, finished the season with a record of six wins and four losses. The team was a hard skating group who played their best when the going was the roughest. The line made up of Jody Procter, Bob Gray, and David Yao accounted for many vital goals. They were backed by defense- men Milne and Steve Webster, and goalie Terry Burbank. Third Hockey was able to play only three of their eight scheduled games. In the first game, the team lost to a stronger Taft team. Against Gunnery the team bounced back to play a close game, losing in the Hnal minutes by one goal. In the final game, the team was held scoreless by a stronger Choate team. Throughout the season, Coach Nolde kept the team's spirit high. The Fourth Hockey team missed three of its six scheduled games. Coaclied by Mr. Hopley and cap- tained by Dave Cooper and Peter Sturman the team lost two close games to Choate and Williston. The Third and Fourth teams combined their best players to tie Taft on its artificial rink in a hard fought over time game. 5' will L? HM... 1' .344 f N 6 gh 0 f W 1 ,,.

This was due mainly to the fact that the team had relatively little material to work with, and much of what they did have, lacked experience. The team suffered from this lack of depth throughout the season. In the forty yard freestyle, both Joe Peppard and John Durbin excelled. The two boys worked hard throughout the season, greatly helping the team. In the butterfly, Dick Bayles turned in an excellent sea- son. This boy really enjoys swimming, and he shows a great promise for the future. Sty Wainright was the nucleus of the backstroke event, consistently turn- ing in steady, low times. In the two hundred yard freestyle both Joe Peppard and Tom Turton swam well. Turton had trouble in the early part of the season, but working hard, improved steadily. The team's strong point was the breast stroke, an event that we never once lost. A great deal of credit for this goes to the team's captain, Peter Hewlett. Hewlett, Bob Friedman, and Rob Conland all did fine jobs. Friedman consistently remained a steady swimmer, and he set a new meet record of 14.6 sec- onds in this event. Larry Wilson and Pete Dunbar turned in good seasons as the teamis divers. In the hundred yard freestyle, Joe Peppard again did a very good job. Peppard was the only good freestyler on the team. Hewlett and Bayles both starred in the individual medley. The individual medley relay was the stronger of the relays for the team. The freestyle relay was weak be- cause the team lacked good freestylers. The team, coached by Mr. Clough., worked hard, and kept good spirit throughout a discouraging sea- son. Of this fact, the boys can be proud. Swimming Captain Pete Hewlett.

Saturday afternoons were spent on the slopes of Otis Ridge and West Cumrnington, and high lighted by an all day ski trip to Mt. Snow, while week days the squad was coached on West- minster's own ski slopes. The skiers finished their season with a ski meet between the Second and Third Forms against the World, which the World won 21-7. it X fi FRONT ROW, left to right: L.

With only one returning letterman, Cap- tain Jack Gow, the team as a whole was not able to come up with a win for this season. However, as the season progressed, the team did also. Frequently, better tennis was played during the daily practices, which, as Mr. Gow, the coach, pointed out, is one of the characteristics of a team with little varsity experience. At practices, Mr. Gow would often play with the specific members of the team in order to point out the most obvious faults in their game. Grem Hall played the number one position throughout the season, and was one of the few on the team that was able to hold his position for the duration of the playing season. Sty Wainwright started out at the number two spot, but did not stay there very long. For the lack of practice, he did not play a consistent game at the start, consequently, he played the number four position the next time on the courts and at the end of the season held down he third post on the team. Larry White started out as fourth in the Hrst match, but he also jumped around in po- sition and ended up the year with a good showing as the second man on the team. jack Gow, this year's captain, was fairly consistent in the respect that he started out as third and finally represented the fourth rnan on the tennis ladder at the season's end. Sam Gawthrop, Sandy White, and Toby Kent battled for the number five and six positions for the most part of the season, with the final tally putting Sandy at nurn- ber five and Sam at the sixth spot. Although the record was poor this year, Mr. Gow says that there is great promise for next yearis group. Tennis Captain Jack Gow Tennis Coach Mr. Gow I 1 .sf K L is .. Q . ., , J, ..

Due to an ever chang- ing membership on the team, the group led a disap- pointingly erratic season. The team's personnel., how- ever, were in agreement that they had a very enjoya- ble season. The relatively inexperienced third tennis team had a three loss no win season. Coached by Mr. Hinman and lead by captain Doug Campbell, the team faced many more experienced and stronger teams. Again the players were shifting from team to team and the players had little chance to play and practice together. Of the lower tennis squads, Mr. Wilbrahamis Fourth Tennis Team had the most successful season. Captained by Dennis Diemand, the team withstood the loss of their first seeded man a smashing defeat by Taft. Their three win, two loss season should most honestly be attributed to not one, two, or five players but to all nine. Because of the excessively large number of boys out for tennis this year, the lower squads never were cer- tain as to personnel on the team until well into the season. In spite of this handicap, they showed enough determination to credit all three with very well played seasons. ,Hum . 2 4 wk, - A, Y 'QSM' I 7' , g1gi'.i3,:jnl- 'g -- I A T' ifwgsigis Q, , K K K .gf W ggigw, KSA My -- . 3 , - if A 'MQW if .

Starting out the season with only three returning lettermen, this year's team went on to capture the Connatonic League Championship. In addition to the three returning letterinen, John DePasquale joined the club to bolster the hitting and the defense. Steve Webster also aided the team with an excellent job in his first year as the teamis catcher. The team was whipped by a powerful Taft team in its' opener. However, it turned around in beating the first four league opponents, due to the strong pitching of Captain Dingy McNeil and Dan Calderwood. Westminster was now in a good position to capture its' second league title in the last three years but hopes were dimmed when we lost two close games to Berk- shire and Salisbury in succession. Traveling to Can- terbury, Westminster nipped the Cantab Aggregation in the most important contest of the season. If we had lost, it would have virtually eliminated us from con- tention for the title. Behind the three hit pitching on Dingy McNeil, the Hilltoppers whipped Berkshire, 4--O, to clinch the title. Henry Hall's sharp single to right iield knocked in two runs with men on second and third to assure the win. In the last non-league game of the season, the Black and Gold, while bang- ing out nineteen hits, walloped Pornfret, 16-1, be- hind the excellent hurling of sophomore Dan Calder- wood. With five boys batting over three hundred go- ing into the last game, the Westmen squeaked by the Gunnery to finish with an 8-2 league record and 9-4 overall. John DePasquale led the team with a .361 batting average, followed by Chip Swett, Steve Webster, Dan Calderwood, and Tim Stevens, all with averages of .300 or better.

At first, all the teams were hampered by inexperience. However, as the year progressed, the teams began to become more experienced and spirited. The second-third team, with a record of seven wins and six losses, was led by Captain Tony Scruton and was coached by Messrs. Jackson and Gilman. The team started off the season with a win over Canterbury l5f5, however, the team was forced to split into two teams for the next game and while the team which played Avon lost a hard-fought game l 1110, the team which played Berkshire dealt them a loss by beating them bwl. The season continued to be an unsteady one, com- posed of wins over Deerfield, Cheshire, Robinson, and Choate, and losses to Kingswood and Suffield. The team ended up the season with a hard loss to Williston and an exciting win over Taft. No- table improvement was noticed in Peter Sturman, a good pitcher, and Jake Lowe, a good third base- man. John Speziale served both as a first string catcher and as an excellent pitcher, winning all the three games he pitched. The fourth team, coached by Messrs. Hovey and Hopley, got off to a bad start by losing the first two games to Rectory and Cheshire, The losses, however, instead of discouraging the team, in- spired their ambition to win and they did win the next two games by wide margins, 12-8 over Mc- Ternan and I2-3 over Williston. The team lost the next game, but they won the next two by wal- loping Robinson 17-5 and by skinning Rectory 14-1 to end the season with a record of four wins and three losses. Captain Ralph Eno served both as a third baseman and a pitcher. Deserved recog- nition for improvement in different fields was found in Chick Childs and Ted Pratt. Childs pitched most of the games. Pratt's improvement at batting helped the team greatly. Judging from the improvements made by all the lower teams this year, the future baseball sea- sons look promising. g A Lb: . 'Www v N 1 wif .

The few returning lettermen helped form a strong core around which the new men could build. With this combination, they ended the season with a rewarding 243 record and 3rd place in the Quadrangulars. As the season wore on, the team under the re- sourcefulness of the coaches was able to have a con- structive and beneficial season. Through dogged determination from the first man to the last man, the team balanced out its lack of depth by improving. The field events were the strong sector of the team. Johnstone, McDowell, Kubler, and Baker gained many essential first, second, and third places in all of the meets. The jumpers were hindered while Captain Peter Hewlett was inactive after the second meet. However, Geoff Chentow took over the broad jump took over the high jump. Conner led the pole vault- ersg Wilson and Ball made great gains throughout the season. Many substantial gains were made in the running events also. Geoff Chentow, Larry Conner, Joe Pep- pard and Dave Walter were the four best sprinters. Al Ball and Barry Williams dominated the 440 and 880 respectively. Bob Friedman broke five minutes in the mile four times during the season. The relay team consisting of Walter, Ball, Conner, and Peppard lowered their time to l.37:6. In the last track meet, a quadrangular held at Trinity Pawling in Pawling, New York, the team bounced back and took 3rd place. This meet was marked by the return of Captain Hewlett who won the high jump. Although they lacked a winning season, the Track Teamis improvements made this season a satisfactory Track Captain Peter Hewlett Track Coaches Mr. Clough, Mr. Smith ,,,,,,. , W, QW?-H ,V 52 , p fb .M .J Q 'M jk 4, QQ 'Mai ,rn ,, N ii F in x . . . -- 4-. , x H21 Q r ,ff Xl Y f sr ,mm E , . x K Sf Q fy W' L mwuli 2s A 5 52 vw R A Vw fx, ,, 4. ww Nm 'W ' My .qw X MVK .Y W fa'-aw-Lf-P' -f X 0 F Q. 6. - X 5.15 , 'Q ' 'gi .. 5 ii M '-'1:,.

After a buffet supper, the school and their guests gathered in front of the Head- master's house for the presentation of the Spring Athletic Awards. At this time Mr. Keyes announced the results of elections of officers for the Fourth and Fifth Forms. After this phase of the evening ceremonies was concluded, Mr. Keyes turned the proceedings over to James Silverthorne, Head Prefect for 1959-60, who briefly explained what was to occur during the traditional Lawn Ceremony. In turn each member of the Sixth Form brought a member of the Fifth Form onto the Sixth Form lawn. The last four boys to be brought on to the lawn were escorted by the out-going School Prefects, thus announcing the appointment of the new Prefects. The new board consisted of Head Prefect Robert Silverthome, junior Prefect Thomas Turton, and School Prefects Henry Hall and Larry Forsdick. After passing the traditional pipe arolund the circle, the two forms and their guests moved into the chapel for a brief service that concluded the Friday evening program. The Commencement Exercises began on Saturday with a Chapel service at 11:00 a.m. for the Sixth Form, their guests, and the choir. After the service everyone gathered under the trees on the north side of the chapel for the graduation exercises. After some introductory remarks, Mr. Keyes again introduced James Silverthorne who gave the Salutatory. Mr. Frederick D. Houghton 132, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, presented the various prizes for academic achievement and general scholarship. Mr. Keyes then presented diplomas to the Class of 1960. A highlight of the weekend was the fact that every member of the class meet the requirements for graduation. The Reverend C. Lawson Willard, Jr., Rector of Trinity Church of the Green, New Haven, Connecticut, gave the Commencement address. A buffet luncheon in the dining room concluded the Commencement Exercises. 134- Editor's Thanks On behalf of the yearbook board of 1960, I wouldtlike to thank everyone whose contributions have helped to make this book possible.
