After the day is over, the school relaxes and Waits for the next day's energetic onslaught of students. Ghostly shadows are cast by the lights in and around the buildings. Students find solitude in quiet places to study, talk, or rest. 4 CROSS SECTION OF BOYS AND GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL ON THEIR WAY TO JOINT ASSEMBLY. COLUMNS RISE IN CLASSIC SIMPLICITY 5 DR. WILLIAM L. PRESSLY, PRESIDENT. Administration. Dr. William Pressly has been president of the Westminster Schools since their inception in 1951. A graduate of Princeton, Dr. Pressly received his Masters Degree from Harvard, and was awarded the degree of Doctor of Literature from Wash- ington and Lee University. His previous position as Head- master of the McCallie School in Chattanooga well equipped him to cope with the individual problems of students and the collective problems that arise in creating a new secondary school. But over and above these excellent qualifications and much more important to his students and faculty are his strong character and genial personality. Under Dr. Pressly's leadership we have attained a truly remarkable level of achieve- ment in a few short years. The principal of the Girls' School is Mrs. Walter Herbert, who joined the Westminster faculty in 1953. A graduate of Converse College, she received her Masters Degree from Emory University. Mr. Sumner Williams, a graduate of David- son College, became Director of the Boys' School in 1955. The Director of Studies since 1953 is Mr. Donn Gaebelein, a graduate of Princeton University. These three outstanding educators work together to co-ordinate the activities of the two schools. The chairman of the Board of Trustees is Dr. Vernon S. Broyles, -Tr., pastor of the North Avenue Presbyterian Church, and the Vice-Chairman is Dr. james R. McCain, President Emeritus of Agnes Scott. Comprised of leading citizens of Atlanta who are friends of our- school, the Board meets regularly to decide on basic school policies and to insure Westminster's future growth. BOARD OF TRUSTEES DR.

In deepest appreciation, we, the class of 1958, extend our gratitude and respect to Mrs. Francis Parker. Her unfailing good humor, friendship, and fine example have been an inspiration to us all. She has been our friend and mentor on and off campus, in the Hut as Well as at Daytona Beach. We take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to Mrs. Parker. May her kindness and ready smile enrich the lives of our successors. PARKER BEHIND CASH REGISTER GAZES AT JOVIAL STUDENTS IN HUT. TYPICAL Recsmve EXPRESSION AT 'DOOR TO Hur PORTFOLIO!.

So may we Wildcats have the perception to see through disbelief to faith, through despair to hope, through ignorance to wisdom, through hate to love. Those things which bind together. So may this book be 21 tie between our schools, binding the two into one. All our activities, All our achievements, All our aspirations brought together and set down here as the living record of The Wfestrninster Schools- separate yet indivisible. Socially Students from Boys, and Girls' Schools are linked through social activities. They get together at the Hut, Dances, and other School functions.

SpiriIuaIIy Another phase of school life Where students from both schools associate is in their religious life. This phase of the student body's growth is provided by joint religious assemblies, Religious Emphasis Week, and Easter and Christmas services.

Beem Rules Over Annual Return of the Natives Homecoming-this event arouses more school spirit and enthusiasm than perhaps any other in the school year. And this year was no exception! Anyone who approached the campus the morning of November 15, could sense excitement in the air. The Boys' school had constructed displays around the campus and everyone was dashing madly around to see them. School spirit began steadily mounting from the time of the rousing pep-rally until it reached a mighty climax at the game. That afternoon the Wilidcats played Riverside and exhibited a great deal of skill, determination, and most im- portant of all, sportsmanship. We were all very proud of our football team and grateful to the players for the way they played this season. The Homecoming Dance was a fitting climax to the fes- tivities, and everyone enjoyed dancing to the music of the Band of Stars. Reigning over Homecoming Week-end was Queen Gina Beem and the members of her court: Andrea Avery, Lynda Bradbury, Laura Sauls, and Lynn Thompson.

Parker, Davis Reign Over Second Jazz Weekend The big social event of the winter was our second annual jazz Week End. Because of the success of last year's week-end, we decided to again invite Dean Hudson to play for us. The fabulous band, the great basketball game, and wonderful crowds added up to a week-end that will be long remembered. The fun began Friday night when the Davises stole the entire show with Dana Davis crowned queen, and her brother, Kippy, Winning the big dance contest. Dana, following in King Carteris footsteps, was crowned Queen, with Peter Parker as her King, these popular two having been elected by secret ballot of the entire student body. Saturday afternoon we continued our successful week-end by winning a basketball game with Gainesville. Following the game, Dean Hudson again entertained us with a jazz concert, a popular feature in many prep schools. To end the memorable, fun-filled event, we had another dance to provide us with more jitterbugging and listening pleasure.

The Student Council sponsored Fire and Ice Dance, the annual Christmas Dance, and the Final Dance were among the out-standing social events of the year. The Key Club, the W-Club, and the Athletic Council also contributed to the success of several other affairs including the Big Jazz Week-end dances. The latter combined the service organizations of both boys' and Girls' High Schools to produce a very enjoyable and pleasant weekend. These dances have contributed much as any one other feature, toward strengthen- ing the bond between the two high schools. CARTER DAVIS DANCES WITH LINDA BRADBURY AT FIRST FALL DANCE OF YEAR.

In the annual Westella competition, the Rats' defeated the Freshmen for possession of the coveted Westeha Elephant. Not only did the class take part in traditional activities, but they originated some of their own, having sponsored a Hal- loween party for an orphanage. Surely, the Class of '62 has proved that they will be capable of great things in the years to come.

By winning the most points in Sing Song, the Freshman showed both enthusiam and origi- nalty. The Thanksgiving baskets and the Homecoming lapels demonstrated their artistic ability. Placing third in the total amount gained in the magazine sale proved them excellent saleswomen. With these fine qualities, the Class of '61 will continue to grow in wisdom, in stature, in favor with God and man.

Sparked by their president Cecil Collins, their cheerleaders, and their basketball players, the junior Class par- ticipated willingly and cheerfully in school functions, supported all the school's activities, and originated new traditions-class songs and yells, the taffy sale, and true class spirit. During the first semester they won three places in Sing Song, placed first in the magazine sale, and obtained high academic records-proving that their actions speak as loudly as their words. A class that has already made great strides looks forward to next year when they will lead the school as the Senior Class of '59.

However, our efforts were not appreciated by Jamey consequently a delegation of teachers, led by a cer- tain feline member of the faculty, fascinated by foundation garments, chose not to return the following year . . . Growing quite excited over the prospect of the much-talked- about Mardi Gras, we worked end- lessly on preparations for the big event. In fact we were all enchanted as the spotlight revealed our master- which we henceforth became Big Buddiesl' '... After surviving the perils of Rat Week, we ceased being Lowly Rats only to become Crawling Creatures-in our first May Day production . . . As our eighth grade era was drawing to a close, the earth- shaking news came to us that we, the Lowly Rats, had won the Class Cup. Of course, we were actually not too impressed because at that time we were unaware of the existence of said cup, but since our possession of the same, caused such chagrin among our sister classes, we were quite de- lighted about the whole affair. In fact, we have been trying to repeat our miraculous performance ever since! REMEMBER WHEN . . . in our formative freshman year when we were green but growing, many future habits were developing . . . Sandra piece of a float with its thrilling de- claration that Susan 'wax a girl! Somewhat less enchanted, however, were the judges, who awarded first prize to the Freshmen, a class with started on her career as class jester . . . Liz took up the laborious task of carpentry . . . Miss Outler's miscel- laneous menagerie and antique autos provoked her Latin classes to con- tinuous giggling, a habit which was to develop through the years into lusty guffaws Cfrom both sidesj . . . Mary started piddling with oils and finger paint which led her to fame as Mary l'Botticelli Bird . . . the much disputed institution of going steady took its roots with the capture of Judy by Frank and with Fran's sudden liking for Rainey days . . . Being a very domestic bunch, we were much too delicate to enter such strenuous sports as basketball Cwith the exception of course of durable Dollyb . . . Contrary to the usual school spirit exhibited by Freshmen, we positively refuted to enter school activities . . . But much to the vexa- tion of our sister classes we did win the Mardi Gras skit, after having lost fairy godmother, Val in a cloud of flour . . . 1 l WITH THE SHIFTING SANDS OF TIME . . . We shifted in many ways . . . from Freshmen to Sopho- mores . . . from high school boys to college boys . . . from study halls to detention halls . . . and from Atlanta to Daytona! . . . Daytona-ah, those first fabulous, fun-filled, sun-filled frolics at the Monte Carlo and the Coconut Groves!! . . . That versatile hillbilly Andy Griffeth inspired our second winning Mardi Gras skit AS TIME ROLLED BY . . . Our junior year was blessed with the ar- rival of several sorely needed schol- ars for ours, the smallest class-in- cluding Pledger who was to prove the inspiration for Annie's new hair style, and Lyn Crawford who came to us on a football scholarship. Her claim to fame was fast but fleeting in our crushing 9-O defeat of the be- loved Seniors in the junior-Senior Powder Puff Bowl. CWho said we weren't athletic?D . . . Deeply satis- fied with our gridiron accomplish- ments, we began construction of our annual Mardi Gras float. Gwynne's house, better known as The Stable, became the meeting place for every imaginable committee, including the How do you Tell Your Mother You've just Wrecked the Car in Rusty's Committee! Gwynne looked lovely as, red with rash, she rode our Carousel into the spotlight. Patti which was a hepped-up' version of A String of Pearls . . . Mrs. Haac, who seemed to be a firm believer that Latin killed the Romans and now was killing us, lost out in the war of water guns to the ever vic- torious Sophomores . . . Betty came . . . Betty left . . . And then there was Candy! stole the show as Eloise in the skitg however, it seems the judges had re- tired for a coke while we were on, and, unaware of their blunder, bes- towed the honors elsewhere. As we dejectedly left the Field House, we were generously assured by the vic- torious Seniors that actually ourr had been bert Cas they greedily added up their class pointslb But a paper- mache horse in Miss Pickard's room reminded us daily of our moral vic- tory . . . Hoping to drown our sor- rows by the sunshiny shores of our second home, Daytona, we departed for the Nausea Villas and King Lear's Cottages for some quiet medi- tation by the sea. However, this proved to be quite har-d'on us, especially for Lynn who was con- stantly being annoyed by raunchy characters, and Patsy who was actual- ly kidnapped . . . But eventually we were forced to return to Atlanta, where we quickly forgot all about our season in the sun and immedi- ately got down to serious work, in order to pass those final exams so that we might become Seniors next year. CBut, somewhere along the way, jane fell a little behind and was not with us as we entered into our splendid Senior yearj . . . INTER- VAL . . . Four luck Seniors-Fran, Barbara, Jeannette, and jo-toured England and France with Miss Pick- ard, as Carol and Ansley went to Norway and Finland as guests of the American Field Service . . . SENIORS AT LAST! The Fifth Anniversary of our arrival at Westminster was celebrated in hne style as we began the year right by getting on great terms with the teachers. This was a tremendous help, because things might have been really rough if we hadn't been. We eagerly looked forward to the week- ly chats with Miss Outler about our term paper progress reports, only to find that we weren't progressing at alll Andes all the while, poor Mrs. Gilchrist complained that nobody ever gave her any notecards . . . At Christmas time we organized a pack of reindeer who, sprouting branches from all sides, gleefully left school to entertain at the Cerebral Palsy Home, after which we all departed for Christmas Holidays . . . Return- ing to school, we found that Camilla had not yet received her long-over- due Tau Delta Tau pin but that she did have a football to add to our Senior Showcase of Male jewelry, a display already contributed to by Beta Sweetheart Ansly and Phi Ep Sweetheart Lainey. Meanwhile, Col- quitt led the Secret Society Staff of the annual who carefully guarded its newly-acquired name-a name won by much gnashing of teeth with the boys' staff who proved to be per- fect gentlemen as they gave in graci- ously. Our final Mardi Gras was also our most thrilling, as Virginia was crowned Queen after our statute of Liberty float was judged most dra- matic. Papa, Mama, Sophia, and Luigi Pasqualie brought us second place honors in the skit making our earnings of class points a grand total of 250 for the night. As we look back on our final year here . . . on Geena Bum as Homecoming Queen . . . our own private parking lot . . . uyou know who's drivers license . . . the Faculty-Senior basketball game . . . Virginia as the Statue . . . our favorite Fraulein, Barbara . . . a sur- prise snowfall and holiday because of the cold . . . our own May Day . . . and Ellen's leadership-we will al- ways recall our five wonderful West- minster years. We are proud to be the first class who has progressed from Rats to Riches on this beauti- ful West Paces Ferry Road campus. Although we may have had a PAST somewhat IMPERFECT, we know that Westminster has prepared us for a FUTURE PERFECT.

A TEMPO OF THE TIMES On May 6th, our annual May Day production was presented on the lawn in front Of the Girls' Building. As always, May Day is sponsored by the Physical Education Depart- ment under rhe supervision of Mrs. Claire Thornton and Miss Ann Yates--the culmination of a semester's work On dances, props, and scenery. This year the theme was TEMPO OF THE TIMES, a Rhythm Resume which traced the dances Of the ages from primitive rhythms to modern jazz. This idea was suggested by Camilla Serviss and Grace Moister in themes written by all seniors in Miss Outler's English classes. The May Day Committee is made up chiefly of seniors and faculty advisors who direct the production. This year's committee is as follows: LOUISE STATON General C baifrmrzn .........., ' MRS.

CLAIRE THORNTON Adviror Y'ALL COME TO THE HOMECOMING DANCE! The Athletic Council extends this invitation to the entire student body each year at the end of the football season. The dance is especially in honor of the hard-lighting football team, their newly-elected queen, and all Westminster Alumni. Besides this Big Weekend, the Council provides an intramural sports program throughout the year, offering archery, tennis, volleyball, basketball, hockey, softball, and swimming for class competition. It climaxes the pro- gram with a field day and encourages whole-hearted competition between the classes by giving an Athletic Trophy to the class earning the most points in intramural tourna- ments. Letters and awards are also given for individual achievement. This year for the first time the Athletic Council fostered an outside project by sending regular representa- tives to play with the children at Hillside Cottages. An Afhlefic Council Meefing: R.

Gifted with strong lungs and untiring energy, these girls never fail to keep spirit high and to push our teams to victory. Under the ef- fervescent leadership of Grace Moister, they have carried high our traditions of school spirit. Their job isn't an easy one nor are their responsibilities small, but their en- ergetic efforts are certainly appre- ciated by all.

They too represent ener- gy, enthusiasm, and active school spirit. EIGHTH GRADE CHEERLEADERS Dressed in their green uniforms, this newly organized cheerleading team shows us that spirit begins early at Westminster. Weekly prac- tices kept them in tip-top shape for cheering the eighth grade boys on to victory. They did a good job helping to promote school spirit, and we are counting on them to keep up their pep in the years to come. B-Team includes D. Welch, M. C. Whilfielcl, M. Rherr, I. Croff, S.

VARSITY BASKETBALL These girls are of great interest ro the school as they are our future Varsity team. They have set an excellent record for themselves this year, having won ten out of eleven games. The one game was lost by only one point. Much of the credit for this fine showing goes to their Coach, Miss Ann Yates, and to their captains, Lucy Carpenter and Betsy Primm.

VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM The basketball team of 1957-58 was composed chiefly of new, inexperienced players. Although they were a green team and not expected to reach previous records set by the Westminster girls' teams, they were able to win 14 out of 19 games and two games in the Region AA tournament. This excellent record is one that the whole school is very proud of. Coached by Loren Young and his assistant, Miss Ann Yates, this fine basketball team grew in unity and in ability throughout the season. Sally Myers, who scored a total of 383 points during the season, was their inspiring captain and Jerry Smith, an out- standing guard, the co-captain. The managers-Ethel William- son, Nona Sterne, and Glancy Jones-were ever ready to help and contributed greatly to the team spirit. Spurred on by the will to win and the desire to 'live up to previous standards of Westminster teams, these Wildcats have worked hard, accom- plished much, and are looking forward eagerly to next year. Since there were no Senior class members, the whole team will play again for the green and the whitef' 88 COACH LOREN YOUNG TUMBLING TEAM-FORWARD ROLL!

TENNIS TEAM With the completion of the new courts, much initia- tive has been shown in tennis. Having chosen a team of the most capable players, Coach Chuck Straly has planned out-of-town matches with teams in North Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee. We hope that in future years the girls' tennis team will equal the record set by the boys' team. TUMBLING TEAM The Westminster Jumping Jacks, bet- ter known as the Tumbling Team, have had a busy season this year under the leadership of Captain Janet Cameron. They have attended month- ly workshops at Murphy, Northside, and Georgia Tech, they have entered into a meet with Northside, and they have put on an excellent performance during an assembly program.

WE SHARE OUR ABUNDANCE . . . The Service Council acts as a Westminster Com- munity Chest, helping those who need help and giving us a chance to share our abundance with others. The launching of the Red Cross membership drive was the first project in the fall under the leader- ship of President Pat Ballance and Advisor Miss Cole. Following this successful campaign, they sponsored the combined Needlework Guild and Shoe Fund. The Knit-Wit Drive in which each class knitted squares for the Red Cross and for class points was an un- usually successful endeavor. The annual Thanksgiving baskets, made and filled by each class, were given to needy families. At Christmas the members gave a party at the Atlanta Child's Home and sponsored the drive for Christmas stockings filled for the Salvation Army. Next came the March of Dimes drive, the Heart Drive, and in the spring, the council will end this year's Service to others by carrying out a CARE project.

Senior Bible Club Advisor SENIOR BIBLE CLUB The Senior Bible Club, which is composed of members from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades, was led by Lyn Crawford and was sponsored by Mrs. Pressly this year. Meeting every Week, the club read books by C. S. Lewis and discussed various religious topics, frequently inviting speakers to add enlightenment to the discussion. The special project of the club was visiting and play- ing with the underprivileged children at the Sheltering Arms Day Nursery twice a month, a project which has helped the club fulfill their purpose of learning and living Christianity. QUEST CLUB As a Junior Bible Club, the Quest Club, which is opened to eighth and ninth graders, fulfilled the meaning of their name by discussing in their meetings the concepts of various religions and many Christian concepts-the Resurrection, Life Everlasting, and prayer. With the aid of their president, Edith Fraser, and their sponsor, Mrs. Glenn Dudley, the members sponsored a drive at Christmas to collect toys for the children at Gracewood. They also had a successful Cookie Sale, the proceeds of which went to the American Bible Society. L.

CIRCLE REORGANIZES INTO COMMITTEES . In the north Georgia mountains there is a school for underprivileged children supported by the Georgia Women's Federation. Many years ago at Washington Seminary a circle to help this school, Tallulah Falls, was organized. When Washington Seminary and the Napsonian School combined to form the Westmins- ter School, the circle of Tallulah Falls was carried- over to the new school since it is an important part of the social, charitable life of Atlanta. The Tallulah Falls Circle is open to all sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors. A junior Tallulah Falls was organized last year which offers membership to sub-freshmen and freshmen. This year the Circle was reorganized, instead of having a Governing Board, the club was divided into eight committees, which are the Pilgrimage, Membership, Ways and Means, Publicity, Finance, Secretarial, Junior Tallulah Falls, and Decoration. The chairman and co-chairman of each committee meet to see that everything is run- ning smoothly. With this new arrangement the mem- bers of the club will have more chances to help the school. A money-making project and a trip to the school have been planned for the spring. We have previously helped light the athletic field at Tallulah and have contributed to the building of the field house. OFFICERS OF JR. AND SR.

THE SENIOR GLEE CLUB Under the direction of Mr. Walter Herbert, the Senior Glee Club has performed successfully on a number of occasions both in school and out of school. At school they have entertained us in assembly, at the Christmas Service, and at the Easter Service. Outside of school they have sung at the Atlanta Womans Club and for the patients at Scottish Rite and Aid- more Hospitals. Regardless of where they sing, their audience is full of praise and applause for their effort and talent. OFFICERS Preridenz . . .... CHR1sT1NE RASMUSSEN Vice'Premienz . . .

Bevel jones, the pastor of the Audubon Forest Meth- odist Church. During the week Rev. Jones discussed many of the problems that confront teenagers about religion, including how to become a Christian and how to find God. Plus his speaking to the entire school, he held conferences at both schools and an- swered questions, 'ging from courtship to world problems. This week was so successful we plan to have another one in the spring led by students.

Noi' pictured-Belly Nunnelley Mrs Herbert lAdvisor ANNUAL STAFF A NEW NAME, A NEW UNITY . . . Last fall, the 1958 annual staffs of the Girls' and Boys' Schools were confronted with a problem-the big problem of finding a new name for the annual which would unite both sections under one title. A contest was held, and after many confer- ences with both staffs, it was decided that Jill Hocking had presented the best title-LYNX. Not only does a Wildcat of perceptive vision symbolize the qualities we Westminster Wildcats strive for, but it also links the Girls' and Boys' Schools more closely together. And living up to its new name, the LYNX staff of 1958 has succeeded in promoting a unity unsurpassed in previous years, under the guidance of Editor Colquitt Meacham and Advisor Miss Joyce Thomas. The next problem on the agenda was finding a theme to tie our annual together. It came to us almost at once that our school motto was the perfect choice. Special thanks go to our alert photographers-Mr. Chester Elliott, Jerry Smith, Miss Thomas, and Ben Read- who illustrated pictorially our growth IN WISDOM, IN STATURE, IN FAVOR WITH GOD, AND MAN.

Every day Mary Ann Shapiro and her faithful assistants, Jeanette Gordon and Susan Padgett, worked all seventh period sorting and alphabetizing magazine subscription slips, running to the Boys' School for checks, and writing zone numbers. Miss Outlet and Miss Patton de- serve special credit for their tireless efforts in handling the money and keeping the books straight. After a rather slow launching of the cam- paign, the class competition became intense, with practically every girl in the school do- ing her share. This year we sold over 318,500 worth of magazine subscriptions, breaking an all time southern record. The Senior and the junior classes tied for first place in the sales, each class reaching well over 10095. The top prize winner was Tommy Wilkins from the Boys' School who won a beautiful portable television and proved that the whole Boys' School was really behind the magazine campaign too. The top prize winners in the Girls' School were first, Dollie Cardwell, second, Edith Fraser, third, Barbara Burnsg fourth, Caroline Haung and fifth, Patti Martin. The entire annual staff and Senior class is grateful to everyone for raising the funds to completely finance the 1958 LYNX. P A P E R S TA F F if -W i f if , i -:1-. - . ' THE WESTMINSTER CHIMES The Chime: staff under the leadership of Ansley Boyd, published seven issues of The Westminster Chimes for the enjoyment of the entire student body. Trying to put out a paper that represents a small part of West- minster is a full time job, but one in which this staff has entered with enthusiasm. En- couraged by their sponsor Miss Parker, the members have been instructed concerning both the practical application of journalism and the responsibilities of a reporter. This year the staff took up a new respon- sibility. In a campaign they raised 3250 which will go towards supporting a foreign exchange student. Everyone is looking for- ward to next year when the whole school will prolit from the work of this organiza- tion. he Gltimea Vol. V, No. 7 May, 1958 Published monthly by the students of Westminster School for Girls, Atlanta, Ga.

The first was a one-act produc- tion entitled World Without Men, which turned out to be just as crazy as the title implies. Next Women Who Wait was on spotlight, an even more dramatic spotlight than usual, To climax their careers as Cecilians, the girls gave a delightful three-act play entitled Ask for me Tomorrow which proved worthy of all the work that went into it. All these productions were made possible by the skilled direction of Mrs. Wapensky, Advisor, and the elfervescent leadership of Sheila Zeidwig, President. CAST OF WORLD WITHOUT MEN ON STAGE.

S RIDE TO GLENRIDGE HALL. THE BOARDERS . . . AT GLENRIDGE HALL With a giant house-cleaning job, accompanied by girlish shreiks and chatter, Glenridge Hall was initiated as Westminster's dormitory in September, 1955. For three busy years, twenty girls have loved living in this beautiful mansion on the outskirts of Atlanta in the midst of the large, wooded Glenn Estate. Mrs. Pearl Cook for two years has been an understanding house- mother to the girls. Her favorite spot is in front of the blazing fire in the library, kept so by the dauntless wood chopping of Coach Loren Young and Coach jack Shields who reside at the dorm with their wives. As everyone knows, when Miss Yates says she is on duty, she is being privileged to remain with the lovely young ladies in Sandy Springs for the whole weekend. The faculty is assisted by Co-Presidents Nancy Marie Lovingood and Pat Frierson. Most of the boarders are underclassmen eager to continue their life in the magnificent old home with the acres of meadows and woods for springtime frolics, wintertime fires, and all-time study and fun.

Coach Charlie Brake To Coach Charles Brake we, the graduating class, dedicate the 1958 edition of The Lynx. Coach Brake, after being with Westminster only two years, is respected and admired by the whole student body. We owe Coach Brake the deepest gratitude for bringing our football team from a position of utter failure to a place of high esteem. On the field he instilled in us that extra drive and determina- tion that make a winner. Aside from the feats he has achieved on the gridiron we remember him as a good friend. His ability always to handle any situation, his ready wit, and deep sincerity will stand out in our memory. To you, Coach Brake, we express out sincere appreciation.

The defeat of the Faculty by a margin of 36 to 17 gave the Varsity and the students new hope and self-respect.

Although the Seniors were not the class who gave the smallest donation per capita, it was decided that they should be sold because they had the highest slave values. The authorities proved to be correct as Bill Darby, Hicks Lanier and Slocum Howland went for almost six dollars each. The auction was a success, grossing IfS870g 3120 more than the preceeding year.

CLEVELAND DURING TIME OUT IN CALHOUN VICTORY. Cats Prowl In '57 The 1957 football season proved to be one of the most suc- cessful in Westminster history. After two weeks of rugged summer practice at Rutledge, Georgia, the Cats were ready to face the season ahead. Considering the many injuries and the bad weather, their 4-5-1 record is quite commendable. Game by game, the season went this way: September 6, Calhoun . . . The Wildcats opened the 1957 season with a thrilling 52-0 win over Calhoun. The Cats vicious line, led by Howland, Parker, and Rogers opened up tremendous holes for the light but speedy backs. Baxter tallied three times, Tharpe once, and Rogers once, to round out the scoring. Bobby Cleveland called a great game at quarterback, and Hicks Lanier did some excellent running. September 14, Mmm . . . A highly regarded Marist team took the Held against the 'lCats at Westminster Bowl before a capacity crowd. The Cats were a little shaky in the first half, going out on the short end of the 13-0 score. Bobby Cleveland's second-half passing almost brought another Wild- cat victory, but Marist eked out a 19-12 win. Touchdowns were scored by Baxter and Tharpe. CAT COACHES: JOE WILLIAM'S, CHARLIE BRAKE, AND DAVID DRAKE. 'Cat Coaches In his second year as head coach, Charlie Brake led the team to the most successful season in the schoolls history. He was ably assisted by David Drake and Joe Williams. These men molded a team in Rutledge and the results will long be remembered by the team and the school. MR KENAN EQUIPMENT MANAGER IN CAGE.

The line, led by Rains, Gager, and Macon fought the Druids savagely for 48 the Cat offense just couldn't seem to score. 27, Avondale . . . The Wildcats battled Avon- regarded Blue Devils on even terms for four quarters in the Westminster Bowl. Most of the action was centered around the rugged line play of both teams.

Hammer, Askew, Gager, and Parker anchored the great Cat forewall, backs Cleveland, Lanier, and Tharpe ran well. Avon- daIe's lone tally came in the first period. October 4, Gainesville . . . The trip to Gainesville was an unsuccessful one, although it had its bright spots. The Cat line, led by Gill, Barnett, Brumby, Howland, and Lockerman, played good football, but Gainesville's power proved to be the deciding factor, and the Cats came out on the short end of a 14-0 score. f HE! li ti A wg,Ri , V Q X 'fi A l 7' 33951 'I -,Q ying , A W, 5 . ,' , f NM, ,gy .-X ,e r , .

At the annual banquet Ronny Rogers and Bobby Cleveland were announced the outstanding backs, and Peter Parker and Inman Allen were named most valuable in the line. The Wild- cat honor players were Stew Gager, Carter Gill, Slocum How- land, Ronny Rogers, Bobby Cleveland, and Peter Parker. All received positions in the AA All-State team.

HALFBACK ANSLEY TAKES PITCHOUT FROM RATCHFORD IN SCRIMMAGE WITH VARSITY. J. V. Football This year's junior Varsity football team, ably coached by Mr. Robert Sims, had one of its most successful seasons in history. The season produced many thrills, highlighted by the two wins over Savannah and Chamblee. Walter Ratchford called a good season at quarterback and Bonneau Ansley, Speed Howell, and Bob Reardon did some spectacular running from their backfield positions. Bill Walthall, Griffin Bell, Paul Pressly, and McKee Nunally were the stalwarts in the tough forewall. The team's record was two wins, two losses, and one tie.

Peyton Robin- son, Steve Sears, Bill Abbott, john Thompson, and Tommy Buckley rounded out the backfield, while Griffin Bell, Duck Drake, Bobby Gilford, Gene Pearce, led line play. 8th Grade The eighth grade remained consistent in '58, turning in an- other undefeated season. 'Led by the able quarter-backing of Duke Shackleford, and the flashy running of Neil Gunby, the Wildkinens rolled up a 5-0 record. Linemen Connell and Arant provided the beef and did an exceptional job in opening holes for the speedy backs.

The fine 18-7 record posted by the boys accurately reflects their desire and determination. Many local sports writers described the team as one of the hottest Hres in Georgia. le' i Of thetseven losses suffered, two were to Druid Hills by one point, one was to Athens by two points, and a fourth was to North Fulton by four points. In short, nobody pushed the 'Cats around. Coach Wright's squad was composed of twelve boys, with Hicks Lanier serving as captain for the second consecutive year. Hicks' spectacular Hoot play and nine point average were invaluable. His running mate at guard was Bob Nast, labeled by many coaches and authorities as the best player in the region. Bob led the team in scoring with a 19.2 average which earned him a second spot in the regional scoring race. His thirty point stint against a strong Gainesville outfit proved to be the needed margin for a well-earned 55-50 Wildcat victory. Rebounding played a major role in the 'Cat's bucket suc- cess with seniors Bill Darby, Ronny Rogers, and jim King handling the chores. These three boys stunned many an op- ponent with their rugged backboard play. Darby found his shooting eye late in the season to lead the team in its two wins over Baldwin County and College Park in the Region mt..

BILL DARBY TIPS REBOUND TO BOBBY CLEVELAND TO 'START 'CATS FAMED FAST BREAK. ZAA tournament. Rogers was especially good in the clutch as he demonstrated in the second College Park game. He completely controlled the boards and popped in ten needed points. King aided the 'Cat cause tremendously in the close games with his deadly one-handed push shot. His twelve points against East Hall in the Region tournament kept the Cats in the game. Bobby Cleveland and Jimmy Long rounded out the first seven players. These two seniors were used throughout the season as spot players, although both started in a few games. Cleveland's two-handed set shot broke Gradyis back as the 'Cats won 54-47 in an overtime. Bobby's line floor work along with his tremendous hustle were great assets to the team. JIMMY FLUKER FLIPS IN TWO POINTS ON PUSH SHOT FROM CORNER. Long also performed creditably as a spot player and his jump- shooting brought the 'Cats back to life against College Park. Sandy Hammer, John Thompson, and McKee Nunally, made up the so-called bench. All played well in their appearances and should be a great help to next year's squad. The 'Cats started the season off by losing a thriller to Druid Hills by a score of 59-58. They then rebounded to beat Spray- berry and Marist by ll and 14 point margins. The 53-50 win over Gainesville was the high spot of the year. Bob Nast scored thirty points while Bill Darby and Ronny Rogers were controlling the backboards. Another highlight came in a sur- prisingly easy 51-40 victory over Fairburn. Fairburn came to our gym with a 16-1 record only to be blown off the court by a Hurry of second-half baskets by Bob Nast and Bill Darby. JIM LONG FIGHTS FOR BALL WITH GAINESVILLE OPPONENT.

Our tournament play featured two thrilling wins over Bald- win County and College Park and a heart-breaking loss to East Hall. Jim King hit for twelve points and Bob Nast col- lected thirteen as the 'Cats battled the boys from Gainesville on even terms before falling 52-48.

Harrison jones led the team throughout the year and was awarded the most Valuable player trophy at the banquet. George McCarty, Gene Pearce, Bill Abbott, Bonneau Ansley, and David Drake rounded out the regulars. These boys will be a strong asset to the Varsity next year, and Coach Wright can be thankful for several bright prospects. 152 9TH GRADE BASKETBALL TEAM: FIRST ROW: Tommy Bpckley, Blake Young, Perry McCarty, Reese Lanier, Gordon Maier, Rogers Lunsford. SECOND ROW: Coach Patton, Dudley Pearson, Anthony Arnold, Bob Wiggins, Terry Bridges, Robert Blackwood. 9th Grade Basketball The ninth grade basketball team, new this year, posted a 8-4 record chart under the leadership of Coach Patton. Robert Blackwood provided the needed height under the boards and led the team in three winning efforts against the Marist Cadets. He was voted Most Valuable Player by the team at the seasonis end. Other stars were Reese Lanier, Tommy Buckley, Dudley Pearson, Perry McCarty, and Terry Bridges. These boys got much valuable training and will be a lot of help to varsity teams in the future. -9 8th Grade Basketball The eighth grade basketball team turned in another out- standing performance, ending up with a 9-1 season record. Coaches Bunnell and Flowers guided the team through their schedule. Paul Worley was elected Captain and received the Most Valuable Player award at the annual banquet. Mike Rogers was most improved, Bill Arant got best team spirit, and Kippy Kirkpatrick was the best sport. Duke Schakleford was con- sistently outstanding and turned in several clutch perform- ances. Coach Wright can look for several bright prospects for future 'Cat teams. 8TH GRADE BASKETBALL TEAM: FRONT ROW: Coach Bunnell, Klppy Kirkpatrick, Paul Worley, Duke Schakletord, Sam 'Stivers, Ronnie Weinstein.

The team was captained by Pete Berry who got the Most Valuable Player trophy at the end of the year. Peyton Robinson was most improved. The team caught fire after Christmas, winning four and tying arch-rival McCallie. Goalie Bo Brown saved many games with stops in front of the goal. Scoring punch was pro- vided by Steve Baldwin, Inman Allen, Bobby Stanley, Peyton Robinson, and Kendrick Maddox. Bill Hall, Tom Fraser, Bill Humphries, and Pete Berry stopped many drives short of the 'Cat goal. With many key regulars returning, next year's squad should better the third place Mid-South standing.

GRAY BRUMBY PREPARES TO THROW NORTH FULTON OPPONENT ON WAY TO A PIN. Wrestling Coach David Lauderdale's 1957 wrestling team showed vast improvement over last year's squad. Frank Eldridge captained the team and Pete Parker served as Co-Captain. Frank compiled a 6-1 record for top honors. Marvin Mitchell and Philip Macon won some important matches against some tough competition. joe Haas continued to show improvement and will be a great help to next year's team. Wally Kennedy, Bill Flinn, Clancy Ridley and Gil Meredith made good prog- ress and will provide the nucleus of the 1958 team. Slocum Howland, Ed Reynolds, Ed Croft, Jack Curry, Carleton Fuller, Bill Sommers, johnny Conant, Ryland Scott and Steve Barnett performed well throughout the season. High spot in the campaign came in the state meet held at Emory University. Gray Brumby, Joe Haas, and Wally Ken- nedy all reached the semi-finals in their respective divisions. With only five men graduating, next year's team should have a banner year. 156 I I COACH STOLTZ INSTRUCTS MERMEN FROM POOLSIDE PERCH. HARRISON MERRILL ON WAY TO NATIONAL PREP SCHOOL RECORD FOR 200 YD. FREESTYLE Mermen Cop State Title The Wildcat tankmen of 1957 enjoyed another successful season under their able Coach, Yutch Stolz. This year's team proved to be the most spectacular in Westminster history, compiling a 7-0 dual meet record. Some of the accomplish- ments of this great team were wins over Athens, G. M. A., Marist, McCallie, Tech, Georgia, and the Clemson Freshmen. This year's team was led by Allen Lockerman, 100-yard freestyle artist, Harrison Merrill, 100-yard butterfly and med- leyg and freestylers Arthur Merrill and Barry Branch. The tea.m's backstroke performers were Al Barrett and Irving Wil- lingham. Billy Weyman's spectacular diving brought the cats some valuable points in numerous meets. Alan Elsas did a fine job in the breaststroke. These boys were ably supported by Arthur Booth, Walter Castles, Drew Meulenberg, johnny Howells, Bjorn Christopherson, John Mullin, Chase Hunter, and Sloan Creveling. The winning of the State and Metropolitan Championships proved to be the high spots of the season. The 'Cats captured 95 and 114 points, respectively, to win these coveted titles. Congratulations from the faculty and student body are ex- tended to this successful group, who have added much to Westminster's athletic fame.

This active team sport should be highly com- mended for the interest and enthusiasm it has brought to the fall sports program.

Cleveland, Porter, Lake and King returned to their old in- field positions and did an excellent job. Ansley, Lanier, Camp- bell and Kelly patrolled the outer gardens. Mound strength was provided by Walter Ratchford, Pat Kelley, and Stew Gager, with relief help from King and Cleveland. Fluker and Gifford handled the catching duties.

Only one Senior will be absent from last year's Mid-South champs, so the netmen will have a definite advantage experience-wise. Mike Neely, Bill Darby, Brooks Pearson, Charles Benedict, Speed Howell, Carleton Fuller and Billy Benedict will form the nucleus of another championship team. Largely responsible for the 'Cats' tennis success has been Jack Waters, who has worked extremely hard with this group.

Honor Council To refrain from lying, cheating and stealing, and to consider oneself duty-bound to report any such violations is the corner- stone of Westminster's Honor Code. This system has func- tioned to the benefit of the entire student body since the school's inception in 1951. This group, which is dedicated to enhancing the integrity of the individual, has on several occasions, been called to the task of deliberating and passing judgement. With the welfare of the individual student in mind, the Honor Council helps him to realize his mistake and to correct his ways. The council, composed of two members elected by their respective class in the upper classes and one member from the eighth and ninth grades, anticipates the clay when the Honor Council will be superfluous. But until such time, it will require the cooperation of the entire student body to keep our standards of honor high. This year's officers were: jim Long, President, John Porter, Vice-President, and jim Fluker, Secretary-Treasurer.

This year the Council has had the responsibility of spon- soring several school dances. This group, with cooperation from the Girls' School Student Council, successfully engineered a dance amid Fire and Ice. The Councils annual Christmas Dance also proved to be a big hit. The traditional Christmas Drive for the Atlanta Child's Home netted over 55870. The senior's Scotch-pockets forced their class to mount the slave block again. A vengeful Varsity basketball team in an overtime student decision crushed a Trig. teacher-led faculty squad. This year's Child's Home Drive should be recognized as an outstanding and worthwhile achievement of the student body. Rat Week, with jim King as the largest rat, was also under the watchful eye of the Student Council. Ofiicers for the year were: Arthur Booth, President, John Mullin, Vice-President, julian Baxter, Secretary, and jim King, Treasurer.

It is an awesome feeling to realize how much we've actually accomplished in five years. Right now it seems as if the years have flown by, but there have been times when we thought we would never reach this, the apex of our high school career. Now that it's here, we can look back with a real sense of pride and accomplishment, not to mention a feeling of great appreciation for the many people who have helped us along the way. It seems just yesterday that most of us entered into that new adventure called high school, back on the old North Avenue campus. Several personalities and incidents stand out in our illustrious careers as Eighth Graders. We all remember jungle jim, fender smasher, Patton's Sub-Terranian Botanical Gardens, often haunted by the pleasant sounds of a diesel trailer truck rumbling by the window. There were also the mad Struggle-buggy races between and D.M.G. over to the new campus and athletics. During that winter the Eighth Grade football squad was ably coached by Mr. Gaebel- ein and Mr. Wright who was lucky enough to run a road- block on a trip to McCallie. Among others present at the big move from North Avenue to the Paces Ferry site were: Sloc CF. B.J Howland, Twinkle-Toes Salt and Pepper Lanier, Angus Elsas, Ben Read, Arthur Booth, Peanut,' Cleveland, Rongor Rogers, Carter Gill, Brooksie Bubbles Pearson, Tony Askew, jim Cannibal , Peter Parker and Booty' Long. As we returned the following year, we felt a real sense of advancement in rank as freshmen. This was the year every- body sneaked around the halls trying to avoid Ronnie Brown, Tillie Nowland, Tommy Morton and others of the post- graduate fame. We also owe much to those who escaped the Royal Road to Romance , such personages as Wilfie Gregson, who is now tracking sputniks for Oglethorpe University, Bill have gun will travel Comer, Bruce Sherrill, who succeeded in busi- ness as a talfy-vendor and used golf-ball seller, also George Boyd who was once rolled down the hall stuffed upside-down in a trash can. '74 After a fairly routine and uneventful Freshman year, pan- demonium erupted in the form of a struggle for power with the Senior class during the spring of the Sophomore year. The informal fracas was halted by the authorities, only after the Hull trophy was threatened by mass brawling in the halls. However, before the now traditional clash faded into the sunset, the gurgles of Chuck Tuller and Baby Bob Wheeler were forever embedded in the sands of Nancy's Creek. It was also during the sophomore year that various mem- bers of our class began their illustrious athletic careers. Among the notables were varsity footballers Hicks Lanier, Carter Gill, Slocum Howland, Ronny Rogers, and Peter Parker. Those of eminence on the Round-ball court were Bobby Cleveland, Hicks and Ronny. In the spring of the sophomore year a rash of teen-age hot-rodders appeared on the scene as Tiger Eld- ridge relinquished his claim to the only driver's license in the class. As Juniors, many of us began the year with an introduction to Coach Charlie Brake, who was to become an integral part of our last two years in high school. Under his guidance we were to learn to take the hard knocks with the moments of glory and good times. We owe much to his patience and great wit. During this unforgettable year we put out the first issues of the scandal sheet, an excellent example of yellow-dog journalism under the guidance of jazzbo Collins and Mark Sheet Editor Al Barrell. Highlights of the rag were such columns as Packing and Shipping and Modine Gunchf' There was always a mad scramble to see who would write Peppy as every week became pack-your-buddy week. Our Senior year started off with a bang for most of us in the form of a short but thrilling vacation to scenic Camp Rutledge for football camp. We were ably entertained by the Washington Georgia Flash, Chop-Chop-Chop Williams, and Beaver Drake, who came up with some marvelous games such as 4 on 1, the gauntlet, and the everpresent sled. While we are thinking of it, Hicks Lanier and a few other 'cat notables wish to leave a warning for all future West- minster football teamers fortunate enough to undergo such a thrilling experience. Avoid all Wednesday morning prac- tice sessions CFAT CHANCE!J As the wilderness scouts returned, we found Westminster ready and waiting as usual to overwork the only thing we had left--brains. The ensuing gridiron season proved to be the muddiest yet, and one of the most thrilling ever seen in Minister's natural bowl. The spirit of the entire school was tremendous as the Wildcat eleven, captained by Rogers, Cleve- land and Howland, stayed high in contention for region hon- ors through the season. One of the definite highlights of this school year has been the success of the senior-led roundball team. Captained by Hicks Lanier, who now possesses the flashiest letter in the school, the squad came through with 10 straight victories at the end of the season and fought their way to the third round of the region tournament. Here we must mention Gris, Rodrigo, Long whose con- tinued effort on the back yard basketball court brought the neighborhood trophy to his squad. Coach Chromedome Wright was ably assisted by Coach quack-quack Drake, and his star-studded basketball. , Also very much a part of the athletic scene during this year was the outstanding swimming team, captained by mermaids Branch and Lockerman, also led by Barrrret and ubiquitious Angi. They splashed to victory in the Georgia State meet and to runner-up position in the Southeastern. During the year there suddenly appeared an outcropping of Chevy Impalas and Ford Skyliners, but to no one's surprise they were all overshadowed by the canoe-carrying jungle- cruiser captained by yards King, better known as the original Tiger-gator. Nevertheless we must leave the title of Hot-Rod king to bouncing Benny Read, also known as Honest Iago, or cost- plus-ten for a friend, Ben. Also unforgettable during that year was the priceless spring exodus to Daytona where incidents occurred by the hatfuls. It was here that Angus first installed a peepsight on his Chevy and took up the pastime of bumping off old ladies in Cros- leys. Also included were staged gag-kidnappings and frequent nightly trips to the Inlet, the racetrack, and the Neptune Drive-in. At this point we must pause to remember that necessary evil, teachers. Among the professors who were not able to withstand the onslaught of our mental progress were joe Hahn, Honor graduate of the School of Andes, jolly Cholly Lloyd, of 364,- 000.00 question fame, who left in quest of more receptive minds for his lectures on Marilyn Monroe and rice barrels, Snake Barron more commonly known as the Strangler g Mr. McGee, author of the famous statement, Agree, Disagree or Get Out , Doctor Rocky Matthews, the disappearing man. Those who have survived are Mr. David Thomas Lauder- dale, who coined the well-known phrase, CENSORED g Emmett Wright, who, it it rumored, pays double for a hair cut because the barber has to look for his hair. Don Gaebelein, chairman in charge of misplaced Princeton graduates, camps and vital statistics. Jim Patton, advertising representative for winning baseball teams, and Sharian Rug Company. General George Barker, who delivered more C Rations to the Battle of the Bulge than any other quartermaster in history. Czar Nicholas II-also known as jim Bunnell, or Needle Beakf' While mentioning teachers, we would like to give a cheer for the Washington Georgia Flash , Okra, peas, crab-apple trees, Corn, wheat, all you can eat, Sharecropper, Sharecropper, can't be beat. Before we leave we would like to mention the most im- portant facet of our entire school life, love and lovers, which brings to mind one of our many mottos, If you ain't lovin, you ain't livin. At this time we should remember such greats in this field of endeavor as Cleveland the faithful or never- say-die Bob, Don't wait up for me Parker, You may laugh and scoff nowv Gill, Fatwood Howland, also known as the Fayetteville Flash and the author of the statement, I didn't love her anyway. Cherry Popsicle Lanier, author of the famous statement, 'GHE-GHE-GHE Ofiicer, we just stopped to talk. Stew Have shovel, will travel Gager. Also, we must include the blissfully married-Darbo and Netia, Nobs and Aline King and Mary Lamar, Barrell, Brooksie and Get out of here Emma, and then there's always Humph In Now, laying aside all scandal and to end with a note of seriousness, we can all honestly say that these past years have been a truly unforgettable page in' in our lives. In closing we wish to express our sincerest appreciation to the many won- derful people who have made us proud to be a part of Westminster. . mi.

These boys were chosen because they best exemplified the qualities of athletic ability, scholarship, leadership, character, and personality. This choice was perhaps the more valid since this is the first class that has been together for at least live full years.
