During The spring Term oT ThaT year, we had The cusTomary brawl wiTh The seniors over The righT To cross The Rubicon by way of The Senior Bridge, IT ended wiTh weT cloThes Tor quiTe a Tew, buT our class seemed To be The loser. SeTh Akin, Thomas Tom Chase, Raymond Ray Walke, Richard Dick vonl-Ioorn, David Tiny NirensTein, Joseph Joe BoTTaro, STephen STeve Tyler, Leslie Les Reynolds, James Lawrie I-Iibbard, Richard Dick Merry, and Leonard Lenny Meyers were added To our rosTer in our iunior year. As we leTT Tor our sum- mer vacaTion in l95I, we knew ThaT we had only one more year To challenge us, and ThaT Then we would be aT The end oT our prep school days. For The TirsT Time, Tor as long as l can remember, The iunior class had an ouTing. This spree Took place on Mon- day, June 5Th, Tollowing graduaTion, aT Jon Shakour's boaThouse on The ouTskirTs oT WorcesTer. We wenT swimming and Tishing in The lake, and Then To The wondermenT OT all, Mad Manl' Sack came skirTing around The lake wiTh a renTed rnoTor boaT. Al Wiegand also provided us wiTh some rides on his moTorcycIe. In The end a good Time was had by every member oT The class who aTTended The ouTing. AT The coming oT our senior year, we could now cross The senior bridge legally. By This Time, The IiTTle band oT advenTurers, ThaT sTarTed in The sevenTh grade aT Tive sTrong, has grown To a class oT TiTTy-Tive. During The TirsT Two Terms oT This year, we came To The elecTion oT our class oTTicers. ATTer The smoke had liTTed, The Tollowing men were seIecTed as The Tinal leaders oT The Class oT I952: Tom Chase Took The responsibiliTy oT The class as presidenT. The vice-presidency wenT To Jim Davies. Fred Jack Took up The moneTary duTies oT The class Treasurer. Bob Eiske Took The minufes oT our meeTings as secreTary, and The honor oT being marshal wenT To Les Reynolds.

These boys are To be commended, Tor They have been selecTed by Their classmaTes To The highesT posiTions in The school. Some very disTanT parTs oT The world are represenTed in our class This year. Tsugu Kabayama Trom Japan is parT OT The resulTs oT lasT year's STudenT Council proiecT. From The opposiTe side oT The world, lran, we have lvlassoud Ahari. Our represenTaTive Trom Cuba, Gonzalo BeruTT, is compleTing his second year aT Wilbraham. WiTh The beginning oT school, The TooTball Team came back To The gridiron. We didn'T have an exacTly powerful Team, buT To coin a phrase oT Dr. Sigsbee's, We were building characTer This year. Some oT The seniors, who were on The characfer building Team, were SeTh Akin, BuTch Anderson, Pancho BeruTT. Joe BoTTaro, Dick Brigham, Tom Chase. Phil Erlenbach, Ed Hammond, Howard Handy, Joe Kochanowicz, Thad LeForT, Maude Lerner, Lennie Meyers, Ted SchwerdTle, Ray Walke, Al Wiegancl, and Willie Williams, all under The waTchTul eye oT 'George Fallon, The manager. AT The end oT The season, Ted SchwerdTle was elecTed capTain oT The Team. The seniors comprised abouT Tour-TiTThs oT The Team. The VarsiTy Soccer Team also read like a senior roll call. There were only Three ouT oT The eleven undergraduaTes on The TirsT Team. The soccer Team, while building iusT as much characTer, won more games Than The TooTball Team. And, again This year, The soccer Team was TriumphanT over The TooTball Team in The Bunion Derby compeTiTion. The record oT The soccer Team was an impressive one, due To The hard work oT The Tollowing seniors: Jim Davies, Andy DragaT, Bob Fiske, DwighT Gammons, Dave l-linTze. Fred Jack, BiIll' lvlcATee, Jim McPherson, Joel Niper, Dave Olsen, Les Reynolds, Don Roy, STeve Sack, Bob Sands, Leonard Sydney, and Gus WinTers. The manager oT This Team was NaThaniel Bond, who did a Tine job all season. The senior class also showed superioriTy and TalenT on The Junior VarsiTy TooTball Team in The persons oT Paul Anderson, who was elecTed capTain, and William Bill STacy. BoTh boys helped The J. V. squad a loT. WiTh The coming oT WinTer, The sporTs aTTenTions leTT The gridiron and soccer Tields, and were Tixed upon baskeTball and winTer Track. This year's VarsiTy baskeTball club was made up almosT enTirely oT seniors. John Gus WinTers, Frederick Fred Jack, Edward Ed Hammond, Ronald BuTch Anderson, and James Jim Davies were The varsiTy hoopsTers, who played many exciTing games. The Junior VarsiTy also had quiTe a Tew seniors. They were Phil Erlenbach, Jon Shakour, Pancho BeruTT, and Dave l-linTze. As we look back on our undergraduaTe days, and.The gab sessions abouT col- lege being so Tar away, we come To The realizaTion ThaT Time has virTually Tlown by, and we are wiThin sighT oT our goal aT lasT. There are many Things ouTside oT classes ThaT we will never TorgeT: spa periods, SaTurday nighT movies, Sunday evening vesper services, Uncle Charlie's Rendez-vous, hard ToughT aThleTic,conTesTs, and The buTT room Tor Those who couldn'T resisT The lure oT The weed. . Yes, Today we have come To The end oT a surprisingly shorT secondary educaTion. As we leave Wilbraham To go To The many colleges in The UniTed STaTes, we can'T help Teeling ThaT we have leTT a liTe ThaT we can never live over. lnsTead, we can only reminisce wiTh our old classmaTes in The years To come. Wilbraham has produced iTs quoTa OT alerT young men, who are eager To puT To The TesT oT higher educaTion, The Things ThaT They have learned aT Wilbraham. I am sure ThaT These graduaTes will do Their uTmosT To make This world a beTTer place in which To live. David B. Hirzlze. CLASS PROPH ECY '52 December, l97l Tound me residing in The Town oT l-logworT JuncTion, Idaho. l would probably sTill be There had iT noT been Tor The leTTer l received Trom Joe BoTTaro, Telling me ThaT he would pull a Tew sTrings and obTain a iob Tor me in WashingTon. ln a Tew days l Tound myselT The new Overseer and AdiusTer oT ln- Ternal Problems in The PenTagon. Being ToTally unTamiliar wiTh This Type oT work, l 32 was raTher slow aT undersTanding The complexiTies oT The boiler sysTem. Joe had obTained This job Tor me, purely ouT oT The kindness oT his hearT: so when he asked me To do him a Tavor, l gladly consenTed. IT seems ThaT The IasT person who held This iob was Bill STacy, who had discovered ThaT by opening and closing cerTain con- Trols on The venTilaTion sysTem, iT was possible To lisTen in on any oT The mosT conTi- denTial meeTings. Realizing The possibiliTies oT This discovery To his news column. Tomorrow's News Today, Joe BoTTaro had made arrangemenTs wiTh Bill whereby he was provided wiTh all The hoT news. UnTorTunaTely, Bill didn'T sTay long, Tor he became so disgusTed wiTh The Things ThaT he overheard, ThaT he resigned To sTarT a reTorm movemenT. Now I was The source oT Joe's inTormaTion. For The nexT Tew monThs, aTTer I had Tinished work and reporTed To Joe, I spenT my Time sighTseeing in The ciTy oT WashingTon. One day I was walking down MassachuseTTs Avenue on my way To The SenaTe, when I came upon a large crowd, IisTening To a soapbox oraTor. To my asTonishmenT iT was Laurie Hibbard ranTing To The crowd: And why is The Trans- porTaTion Tax on ChrisTmas Trees so high? I'll Tell you! lT's To Torce VermonT ouT of compeTiTion wiTh New I-lampshire. . . Suppressing my desire To hear more. I hurried To The SenaTe and arrived iusT in Time To hear The TavoriTe son oT lvIassachuseTTs, SenaTor David NirensTein, inTroduce a bill To appropriaTe Tive billion dollars Tor The preservaTion oT The TasT disappearing Banshee Bird. Pleased ThaT Dave's bill was passed unanimously, I was iusT preparing To leave, when I was Tapped on The shoulder and Turned To see The Tamiliar Tace oT Gonzalo BeruTT. Having exchanged slaps on The back, he Told me ThaT he was in WashingTon, represenTing The Tobacco growers oT Cuba. I-Ie was puTTing The pressure on The Cuban represenTaTive To inTroduce a bill making iT illegal To sell anyThing buT Cuban Tobacco To minors. The Tollowing aTTernoon Tound me aT The enTrance oT The SmiThsonian lnsTiTuTe. In The naTural hisTory deparTmenT, I noTiced several odd species oT animals wiTh cards reading: ObTained on The TourTh expediTion To The lower region oT WesT Bougodia- by Philip Erlenbach and David Olsen. My curiosiTy was aroused, and I Tinally decided To look Tor someone who could give me more inTormaTion abouT These Two Triends. I knocked on The door marked curaTor. IT opened. and sTanding There wiTh a sTuTTed monkey in his hand was George Fallon. GreeTings, he said. I-Ie inviTed me in, and coming righT To The poinT, I asked him whaT The sTory was on Dave and Phil. I-Ie Told me ThaT They were doing exploraTional work in unexplored lands, bringing back ani- mals, minerals, and planT liTe. I-le said ThaT I would noT be able To see Them Tor some Time, since They had iusT IeTT in search oT live Tish in The Dead Sea: Thanking George Tor sparing his valuable Time, I reTurned To my aparTmenT. The Tinal days oT I97I were wiTnessing many world-shaking news evenTs, and, sTrange as iT may seem, many Tamiliar names were in The headlines. I was delighTed To hear ThaT Ralph FarnsworTh had made his Third successTuI Trip over Niagara Falls in a barrel, buT I was dubious abouT his plans To make The nexT aTTempT in a boTTle. Jim Mac Pherson had done iT again: aTTer successTully deaTomizing several persons and sending Them Thousands oT miles inTo space, he had invenTed a second machine wiTh which he planned To bring Them back. The presidenTial eIecTions were rolling around, and mosT Republicans seemed To be sTrongly in Tavor oT I-IonesT Jim Davies, who had gained naTional renown by exposing The Tix in inTercollegiaTe chess compeTiTion. One day, l heard over The venTilaTor sysTem ThaT ProTessor Briggs, The eminenT physicisT was missing somewhere in Europe. IT was Teared ThaT he had been capTured by an agenT oT The Gremlin. I-le had been vacaTioning in Europe aTTer compleTing work on Fosmic Rays. The whole aTTair was being kepT Trom The public, and aT ThaT Time The F. B. I. and SecreT Service were carrying on a desperaTe search Tor him. The locaTion oT The learned genTleman was oT such imporTance, ThaT even Leonard Meyers, who had iusT succeeded J. Edgar Goober as head oT The F. B. I., was doing his own per- sonal research. I was iusT debaTing wheTher or noT To inTorm Joe, when a man enTered who looked iusT as if he had sTepped Trom a Humphrey BogarT picTure. As he Turned 33 down his collar and removed his haT, I recognized Special AgenT Bob EaTon. NoT uTTering a word he led me quickly To his boss, Lenny lvleyers, where he Tinally unTorm.ed me ThaT I was under suspicion oT revealing inTormaTion To a cerTain news columnisT. l Told boTh oT Them ThaT I was compleTely ignoranT oT all acTiviTies in The I?enTago.n excepT The running oT The boiler sysTem. ATTer Three long hours oT evading .Their Tricky quesTions, I was Tinally released, a Tree buT more cauTious man. This experience was enough To show me ThaT I was in The wrong Tield oT business: so l wenT sTraighT To Joe's aparTmenT To Tell him ThaT he no longer had an imformer. ' l arrived iusT in Time To see him Tinish packing. l'le said ThaT he had no Time.To Talk because The Eeds'l were aTTer him, buT l persuaded him To siT down and Think The whole Thing ouT. EirsT oT all, we boTh agreed, iT was necessary To geT ouT oT Town. BuT we knew ThaT since we were bound To be caughT sooner or laTer, we should aTTempT To do someThing ThaT would make The courT more lenienT. Then I ThoughT oT CarlTon Briggs who was missing: iT we Tound him, we would surely have a lighT senTence, Joe suggesTed ThaT we consulT Bulldog Brigham, privaTe eye, Tor proTessional advice. I-lis oTTice was locaTed in one oT The beTTer buildings oT WashingTon: alThough The coal piles made iT raTher dusTy, Bulldog had iusT Tinished dicTaTing a leTTer To his secreTary, MarTha. I'le Told us ThaT The besT way To Track down a missing person was To go To The place where he was lasT seen and inquire. ThereTore we prepared our- selves Tor a Trip To London, England where CarlTon had lasT been seen. We hurried To New York and sTowed away in a liTe boaT on board a luxury liner, headed Tor England. Two days ouT we were discovered and broughT beTore The capTain who Turned ouT To be Joe Kochanowicz. We explained our mission, and he agreed To IeT us work our way across. The Tollowing day, while swabbing Deck B, we meT Two old school chums. l.ou and Joel Niper, engaged in a similar occupaTion. They explained ThaT They were going To Spain To Tind Treasure. IT seemed +ha+ They had boughT a Treasure map Trom a characTer in Greenwich Village - Tor a song. When we sTarTed Telling Them oT The various classmaTes we had recenTly seen, They inTormed us ThaT we could see Two more on The wresTling maTch on Television TonighT. STeve Sack, proTessionally known as Hercules Hank, and Tiger Thad Le ForT, ThaT new sensaTion, were going To TighT Tor The championship oT The world. IT was a TerriTic TighT buf iT Tinally ended in a draw when The reTeree reTused To come ouT Tor The Third Tall. Television concluded Tor The evening wiTh an unbiased opinion OT Gus WinTers, Third baseman Tor The BosTon Red Sox. As he rounded Third and headed Tor home, he liT up a cigar and said, For good downrighT smoking enioymenT, I always smoke EI Ropes. ThaT evening we were waiTers Tor The Ball ThaT is always held on The second nighT ouT. Many personaliTies oT sTage, screen, and radio were presenT. Some were called upon To perTorm. STeve Tyler, The Tamous bariTone Trom The lvleT, sang an aria Trom The Barbar oT Seville. I-lis voice was so capTivaTing ThaT some OT The women swooned. Two days IaTer we landed in England, and bidding adieu To CapTain Kochanowicz, we seT ouT Tor London Tor The TirsT leg oT our search. Three weeks oT TuTile hunTing leTT us TrusTraTed and helpless un+il we happened To sTumble inTo a nighT spoT called Ye New RiTz. We were amazed To see ThaT The m. c. was lvlax Lerner. We wenT over To Talk To him and ask him iT he had any knowledge oT The whereabouTs oT CarITon Briggs. I-le said ThaT he had seen Carl abouT Three monThs ago: aT The Time he was heading Toward France, possibly Paris. We quickly seT ouT Tor Paris. The boaT Trip was raTher rough, and while leaning over The side, we caughT sighT oT one oT Those TanaTicaI English Channel swimmers. As a joke, we sTarTed Throwing pennies aT him. JusT as we passed him we recognized The deTermined Tace oT Ray Walkep we yelled our regards and good wishes To him buT he was soon ouT oT sighT and earshoT. ' The minuTe we seT TooT in The ciTy oT Paris, we were capTivaTed by iTs gaieTy. Being mqre inTeresTed in enTerTainmenT ThaT had inTellecTual worTh, we wenT To see The play Cyrano de Bergerac, which was sTarring NaThaniel Bond. NaT was on Tour 34 here in Europe aTTer compleTing a Tour year run oT Charlie's AunT'i on Broadway. The Tollowing day, while walking Through The exclusive shopping d1sTricT, l noTlced a sign reading: Fashions by Roy. We enTered The magniTicenT plush sTore and meT The Tamiliar smile oT Don Roy. ATTer he had shown us all abouT his beauTiTul esTabll.sh- menT he Tinally consenTed To answer our quesTions. We had a long chaT wiTh him. discussed our plighT, and, learning noThing abouT CarlTon's whereabouTs, we hurried on. Turning on To The Rue de la Paix, we noTiced a characTer wiTh a bereT and TurTle: neck sweaTer, greeTing everyone ThaT he passed wiTh an over-accenTuaTed .Bonlour and Typical French gesTiculaTions. l Tapped him on The shoulder and said Bon1ourq' .he Turned, and who did we see buT Ted SchwerdTle. He explained ThaT he was spending his Spring VacaTion in Paris in order To brush up on his French. Then he inviTed us To go To his aparTmenT To reminisce. Reminding us oT one oT our Tormer resTricTions, he pulled a radio Trom The boTTom oT his laundry bag and aTTempTed To geT an American radio sTaTion. Soon we picked up a baseball game beTween The ST. Louis Cards and The Brooklyn Dodgers. The opposing piTchers were Fred Jack and Dick Johnson. UnTorTunaTely we weren'T able To Tind ouT which Team was ahead, because The radio wenT dead during The commercial Tor Handy's Dandy Hand Cream, a producT oT The Howard Handy Research LaboraTories. Ted hadn'T heard Trom Carl- Ton Briggs Tor a long Time, buT he said ThaT we mighT geT some inTormaTion aT a small NighT Club called La Savoy. We enioyed The Tloor show Tremendously aT La Savoy. and were iusT draining our TourTh mug when The m. c. announced ThaT The TeaTure aTTracTion Tor The evening would be ThaT currenT popular musical combinaTion, crooner Pierre Fiske and Maurice von Hoorn and his ConTinenTal Five. Their specialTy was Dixieland wiTh a French accenT, and seemed To be The presenT rage wiTh The French bobbysoxers. ATTer The show we meT Bob and Dick and asked Them iT They could help us in our search. The Two Tinally came To an agreemenT ThaT he could probably be Tound in MonTe Carlo. Our Trip To lvlonTe Carlo was delayed aT The small village oT Epernay where The inTernaTional moTorcycle races were being held, Since iT was impossible To geT Through The TraTTic, we decided To waTch The race. The TirsT bike To Tinish came To a halT almosT in TronT oT us. When The driver removed his cap and goggles, we recognized The grinning Tace OT Allen Wiegand. BUT beTore we were able To TighT our way Through The crowd To congraTulaTe him, he was snaTched away by ThaT modern Bill STearn, BuTch Anderson, whose program was becoming so popular wiTh The sporTs Tans. We Tinally broke Through The TraTTic and proceeded To lvlonTe Carlo. The gambling concessions were buzzing wiTh acTiviTyg aT The rouleTTe wheel, we Tound Nick HolT siTTing behind a pile oT chips which covered Two Tables. 'We didn'T wanT To iinx his luck so we conTinued To The card Tables. A big game was iusT breaking up, and while The players were passing by I caughT sighT oT Leonard Sydney. He was humming The Tune To The Man Who Broke The Bank aT MonTe Carlo. l called his name, and he came running over. We exchanged pleasanTries, and Then l asked him iT he knew anyThing OT CarlTon Briggs. AT lasT we had Tound someone who had really seen him recenTly: he Told us ThaT only Three weeks ago he saw Carl boarding a plane To Arabia. We sTayed aT lvlonTe Carlo Tor several days, gambling our meager savings. When we had made a suTTicienT proTiT aT The Tables, we decided To buy a TickeT on one oT The independenT air lines. We were delighTed To Tind ThaT The line was owned by Dick Merry. He Told us ThaT There was a TlighT leaving in a Tew minuTes, buT ThaT iT was charTered by Massoud Ahari, The oil magnaTe. lvlassoud was very kind To us and oFTered To leT us go along wiTh him Tree oT charge To The ciTy oT Saudu. When we landed early The nexT morning, we Thanked Massoud and seT oTT on our quesT. Walk- ing Through The markeT place, we saw Larry Lynch sTanding nexT To a wagon painTed in big red leTTers: Dr, Lynch's Snake Oil. We broke Through The crowd oT peasanTs and made ourselves recognized. Larry closed up shop and inviTed us inTo The wagon. To our amazemenT he Told us ThaT Carl had been kidnapped in This very Town iusT 35 one week ago, by henchmen of lvan Skavinsky Skevar, guerrilla leader of fhe Gremlin forces in Easfern Arabia. We wondered if fhere was any possible way of rescuing him from his capfors. Larry suggesfed fhaf we confacf our old friend Jon Shakour, leader of a large group of deserf marauders who were repelling fhe guerrilla aggression. A fhree day journey by camel across fhe forrid deserf, broughf us fo Jon's headquarfers. Our passage fo his camp was halfed by his fall sun-fanned guard, Bob Sands, who had been Jon's adviser, keeper-of-fhe-harem, and righf-hand-man, for many years. He quickly led us fo his leader, who seemed very inferesfed in our cause and was quick fo give us aid. Evening found our forces, nine hundred sfrong, sweep- ing fhrough fhe guerrilla camp: wifh amazing efficiency Jon's clever men locafed Carlfon, and we galloped away. Because Carlfon was in need of medical aid, we fhanked Jon and his men for fheir aid, and headed for fhe nearesf sizeable fown. Unable fo find a docfor in fhe fown of Adbul, we resorfed fo fhe nexf besf fhing, fhe village horse docfor. Our physician furned ouf fo be Don Snow, who was iusf seffing up business affer several years of medical school and infernship af Suffolk Downs. When Carl had recovered we proceeded fo Paris and confacfed fhe American aufhorifies. To our asfonishmenf we were immediafely arresfed and furned over fo Ed Hammond, foreign agenf for fhe F. B. I. He said fhaf he was sorry fo do fhis, buf fhaf orders were orders. When we were placed upon 'rhe airplane fhaf was fo fly us back fo America, we were greefed by fhe pilof Fred Flemings. Twelve hours laler in New York we were mef by a wild horde of reporfers and phofographers. We only had a chance fo pose for a few picfures and answer several quesfions, before we were rushed off fo Washingfon and subiecfed fo more quesfioning. Lack of evidence forced fhem fo lef Joe go, buf I was soon ushered fo an affracfive liffle cell which was fo be my home unfil fhe frial. There were only fwo fhings fhaf kepf me from becoming very desolafe and lonely in my cell. One was an exfremely inferesfing copy fhe New Periodic Charf of fhe funcfion of fhe afom, compiled by Paul Anderson and evidenfly leff fhere by some previous inmafe. The ofher consolafion was fhaf my iailer, Walfer Morrissey, did everyfhing in his power fo make life inferesfing for me. Of fhe many books fhaf he broughf me fo fill my spare fime, I fhink fhaf fhe nicesf was Poems fo Soofhe fhe Mind by David Hinfze. One affernoon l was visifed by Tsugu Kabayama, who had recenfly been ap- poinfed Ambassador fo America from Japan. He expressed his deepesf sympafhy and said fhaf he hoped fhaf everyfhing would furn ouf all righf. The sfory of my arresf was sharing newspaper headlines wifh Leslie Reynolds who had been siffing afop a flagpole for one hundred and fwenfy-nine days, and Bill lv1cAfee, who defeafed Rocky Robinson for 'rhe middle-weighf championship of The world. The day of my frial finally arrived and l was led fo fhe courfroom. Defending me has been fhaf nofable criminal lawyer, Dwighf Gammons. He had been hired fo defend me by one of my wealfhier friends, Warren Williams. Warren, who owns fhe Williams Hair Resforer Company, read abouf my case in fhe paper, and volunfeered 'ro help me ouf of fhe iam. The prosecufing afforney, Tom Chase, broughf every incriminafing facf info fhe open. On fhe ofher hand, Dwighf did a marvelous iob of defending me. Now bofh sides had resfed fheir case and affer a period of deliberafion fhe iury was giving ifs verdicf. Guilfy of spying and revealing informafion fo un- known sources. Sefh Akin, fhe iudge, banged fhe gavel and said, Will fhe defendanf rise fo receive his senfence. When l rose, he said, You have been found guilfy by fhe iury, and if is my dufy fo senfence you. Buf, because you fook if upon yourself fo locafe a valuable figure in our Defense Deparfmenf, l am going fo show leniency and give a one year suspended senfence. Walking ioyfully down fhe sfeps of fhe courfhouse, I fhoughf how wonderful if had been fo confacf so many of my old Wilbraham friends and l was proud of fhe accomplishmenfs of all of fhe Class of l952. joseph Bottnro Andrew Dmgut 36 UNDERGRADUATES JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY To The TwenTy nine crewmembers aboard The good ship Junior Class This voyage OT The pasT school year has been an awakening To Their duTies To be compIeTed if a crediTable desTinaTion is To be reached.

This Freshman Class had iTs beginning Two years ago when Tive oT iT's members were in The sevenTh grade. The eighTh grade saw Tour more boys added To The ranks and The class is now TiTTeen sTrong. We hope ThaT we will all be here nexT year To Talce our place as sophomores aT Wilbraham. Donald Tull 4I i JUNIOR SCHOOL HISTORY This year, as in many oTher years, Wilbraham has a Junior School, called Win- chesTer School, Since Wilbraham Academy is really only The ninTh Through TwelTTh grades. we musT consider WinchesTer as a Wilbraham Prep. The boys who board aT school all live in The WinchesTer House, which is supervised by Mr. and Mrs. EaTon. The Junior School This year consisTs oT eighTeen boys, +hirTeen oT whom are Day STudenTs. The Boarding STudenTs are Fred Bemis oT BosTon, Bill Consedine oT Spring- field, Mike Copen oT Long Island, John STalker oT BosTon, and FairTield WhiTing oT Holyoke. Those who do noT board are Gary Ardison, Tom Ferguson, Philip Grand- champ, Gary Hill, Ralph Hines, Ted Hodgdon, George LanTz, Frank Merrick, Jim Miller, Jere Murray, Dave Perkins, Dave Shoughrue, and John ValenTine. Our Teachers were: Mr. Graves, sevenTh and eighTh grade geography and spell- ing, eighTh grade hisTory and composiTion, and sevenTh grade maThg Mr. Tyrer, sevenTh and eighTh grade English and LiTeraTureg Mr. Randolph, sevenTh grade hisTory and composiTiong Mr. EaTon, sevenTh and eighTh grade penmanship, and eighTh grade maThp Mr. ThursTon, sevenTh and eighTh grade science, and Mr. Brown who super- vLses The shop. We are exTremely graTeTuI To These men who have given us so much T is year. The Junior School sporTs schedule goT under way in laTe SepTember, wiTh Mr. Neyranowski coaching soccer. There were a loT oT veTerans Trom lasT year, including Gary Ardison, Gary Hill, Ralph Hines, Phil Grandchamp, Tom Ferguson, and George LanTz, ln our TirsT and only game we losT To Longmeadow, Tive To noThing. Chip Ide, The Longmeadow sTar, scored Three oT The goals againsT us. AlThough we losT ThaT game, we had some ouTsTanding sTars: on oTTense The Team was led by Tom Ferguson, Phil Grandchamp, and George LanTz, all oT whom played excellenTly. On deTense The boy who was ouTsTanding was Gary Ardison. In The goal Ralph Hines played a Tine game, and wiTh a liTTle more supporT Trom The backfield, mighT have held The score a hair lower. ATTer The soccer season came baskeTball, Again we had a loT oT veTerans and Coach FosTer was pleased by The showings oT such sTars as George LanTz, Tom Ferguson, Phil Grandchamp, Gary Ardison, and a Tew oThers.

They were ready and willing To condiTion Themselves Tor The opening Tray oT The season wiTh The ChoaTe School, Three weeks hence. Dr. Sigsbee, assisTed by Mr. Richwagon, shared The enThusiasm in preparing Tor ThaT TirsT game, buT inexperience handicapped all eTTorTs To malce Wilbraham a winning Team. In TacT, iT proved To be a deTermining TacTor in making Wilbraham a losing Team Trom sTarT To Tinish. The bullc oT The Team consisTed OT Tormer Wilbraham J. V. players. Only Three veTerans reTurned To play Tor The I95l Team. All Too soon, OcTober sixTh, The day OT Wilbraham's conTlicT wiTh The ChoaTe School, arrived. The Wilbraham charges meT The Toe undaunTed. and leTT deTeaTed buT sTill undaunTed. The ChoaTe band TreaTed The large crowd To a Tine program aT halT Time. During The second halT, Wilbraham Taced Three diTTerenT ouTTiTs, each one, Tresh, and seeming To be as good as The lasT. Ted SchwerdTle served as game capTain Tor This game. The game TerminaTed wiTh a 40-O score in Tavor oT ChoaTe. On OcTober I3, gaThering all able members oT The Team, a Palmer coach carried The high-spiriTed group over The mounTain To Monson Academy. The Monson Team was supporTed by a home-coming crowd, which seemed To inspire The compeTiTive Wilbraham cheer-leaders To an hilarious perTormance Tor Their spiriTed Tans. All rumors of Monson being a push-over were soon recTiTied as They displayed Their loaded Team. Wilbraham Tound The Monson eleven devasTaTing: our Team was handed a 53-O deTeaT. Ronald Lerner, The game capTain, played a never-say-die game along side oT Edward Hammond and Thomas Chase. Raymond Wallce played a good deTensive game in The righT halT-baclc spoT. Joseph BoTTaro ran and punTed well Tor The offensive machine, gaining I5 and I6 yard iaunTs in The second period. Wilbraham handled The ball only occasionally: when iT did, The going was rough. Theodore Loeb and Ronald Anderson were bulwarlcs aT Wilbraham's deTensive end posiTions. OcTober 20 gave The Team plenTy oT Time To recuperaTe Tor The ThreaTening Dean Academy Team. This was probably The mosT colorTul game oT The season, being on home TerriTory and aTTracTing a large group oT inspired Teminine Tans. Possibly if They had Tanned Tor Wilbraham, The score would have been 57-O in our Tavor raTher Than Dean's. Dean displayed a Tine machine, lacking only a good exTra-poinT kicker. Wilbraham's game capTain ThaT weelc was Tom Chase. Wilbraham, Thoroughly disgrunTled by OcTober 27, Traveled To The Moses Brown 45 School in Providence, defermined fo give fhis game fheir all. We did iusf fhis: 'fhe fackling, running, blocking, everyfhing had improved one hundred per cenf. Joe Bof- faro, a sixfy minufe man fhis game, proved fo be a sfandouf, bofh offensively and defensively. Big Leonard Meyers, playing on familiar ground, displayed a greaf deal of abilify, making several long iaunfs and passing well. Archie, The Tank Chamber- lain was fhe Wilbraham hero of fhe season, fhis day, as he crossed fhaf all-imporfanf line for Wilbraham's lonely six. Edward Hammond was in his fighfing form fhaf affernoon, which led fhe Wilbraham offensive, as well as defensive lines fhroughouf fhe season. Carl Klemm and Philip Erlenbach were also oufsfanding for fhe garnef and blue. By means of a freak play, Moses Brown managed fo eke a 26-6 vicfory ouf of fhe fighfing Wilbraham men. The Wilbraham feam was well supporfed by Mr. Kirwin's mixed band, as well as a bus load of roofers. Joe Boffaro and Ronald Ander- son were elecfed co-capfains for fhe confesf. The nexf game, scheduled for November fhird wifh Suffield Academy, was rained ouf and rescheduled for November fiffh on home ground. The Suffield feam, small in number, was packed wifh power, as was shown by The 30-O oufcome. The Wilbraham line held sfrongly againsf fhe Suffield barrier, buf many of Suffield's gains were made by end runs by fhe shiffy backs, and some well caughf passes. Joe Kochanowicz and Thaddeus l.eForf lef fheir presence be known by sfopping repeafed affempfs fo pierce fhe Wilbraham line. Ronald Anderson, one of fhe mosf oufsfanding defensive men on fhe feam, played his usual fine game af end posifion. Af fhe opposife end was Ray Griffin, one of fhe mosf promising iuniors on fhe feam. Paul Zarynoff, a 2lO pound fackle, who played in fhis game, will also be refurning fo fhe Wilbraham lineup in I952. Edward Hammond capfained Wilbraham againsf Suffield. The Wilbraham Varsify Foofball Team played ifs final game of fhe season on Fafher's Day, November fenfh. The game was won by fhe well frained and experienced grid men from New Haven, Hopkins School, Sefh Kelly Green Akin was seeing red before The affernoon was over, buf he confinued fo fighf hard righf fo fhe lasf whisfle. On fhe opening kick-off, Richard Brigham received fhe ball, leff his infer- ference, and soon affer vowed fo refurn fo his game of soccer. Allen Wiegand, a sure sfarfer fhis game, dislocafed his elbow fhe day before fhe game and unforfunafely was unable fo play. Gonzalo Beruff, our Cuban delegafe, alfhough new fo fhe game of foofball, was a credif fo his nafive counfry. Allan Schade, a 230 pound sophomore fackle, displayed abilify which should make him an oufsfanding player in fhe years fo come. Some of fhe boys who didn'f see quife so much acfion, buf whose confribufions were greaf fo fhe daily pracfice sessions, were Howard Handy, Errol Reed, and David Nirensfein. In closing, if may be said fhaf fhe Wilbraham feam fook ifs defeafs in a very courfeous manner. This was due fo fhe leadership of Docfor Sigsbee, whom fhe feam will never forgef, as a champion of fhe fradifional Wilbraham spirif. Edward Srbwerdfle. COACH SIGSBEE CAPTAIN SCHWERDTLE 46 T em E q VARSITY SCCCER When The varsiTy soccer Team meT Tor iTs TirsT drill This season, Coach Shaw had The arduous Task oT Tinding a good combinaTion To Till Tour vacaTed posiTions in The line. Fred Jack, who covered The diTTiculT leTT wing spoT Tor Three years, was moved To cenTer Torward, where he surpassed all expecTaTions, undoubTedly, becoming one oT The besT cenTer Torwards in The school's hisTory. The TirsT week was spenT alTernaTing boys in The remaining Torward line posiTions. The abiliTies oT many oT The boys, Trying ouT Tor TirsT sTring posiTions, were so equal ThaT iT was someTimes a Toss-up Tor Mr. Shaw To decide who could sTarT. The leTT wing posiTion Tinally wenT To Dave l-linTze, a Tricky dribbler wiTh a deadly cross. John McKenna and Bob Fiske alTernaTed aT leTT inside wiTh each being noTed Tor his aggressiveness and piercing kicks. Gus WinTers' endurance and scrappiness were a consTanT ThreaT boTh on defense and oTTense aT his righT inside posiTion. Bob Googins, who had seen much acTion The previous year, covered The righT wing spoT wiTh skill and agiliTy in every phase oT The game. Two speedsTers, Bob Sands and Don Foulds, shared in The responsibiliTies oT This posiTion. The halT-backs, Dave Olsen aT righT halT, Joel Niper aT cenTer, and Jim Davies aT leTT, all veTerans and TirsT sTring maTerial oT lasT year's undeTeaTed Team, covered The grueling posiTions ThroughouT each game. A smooTh working pair oT Tull-backs, John Shakour and STeve Sack, perTormed Their Task wiTh ease. The imporTanT goalie posiTion was Tilled This year by sophomore PeTe Olsen, The only member oT The Team wiThouT previous experience. PeTe Turned in an excellenT perTormance in every game, OcTober 3, we journeyed To Monson. In a real Thriller Fred Jack Tallied in The re- maining minuTes oT The lasT period To give us a 2-! vicTory. OcTober l2, we were hosT To SuTTield. Wilbraham wenT righT ouT To score Two goals by McKenna and WinTers and Then began To Take iT easy. ln The lasT Tew minuTes SuTField scored Twice, resulTing in a Tie. The game was marred when Goalie Dick Johnson was injured making a specTacular save. 47 The Tollowing week we Travelled To WorcesTer wiTh a more deTermined aTTiTude. WorcesTer boasTed a sTrong Team which had been undeTeaTed in Three sTarTs. A quick goal by Jack Threw,Them OTT balance, and halT Time saw us wiTh a 2-O lead. By The end oT The game we had a decisive 6-I vicTory wiTh Jack accounTing Tor Tour and Googins Tor The remaining Two. Much crediT is due To our halT-backs and Tull-backs who baTTled a sTrong oTfensive holding Them To one goal. Three days laTer Loomis give Wilbraham iTs TirsT seT-back by a score oT 2-l. McKenna Tallied The goal. On a very rainy day ChoaTe handed us a second deTeaT by a score OT 5-2. Wil- braham led unTil The lasT quarTer, when The rain-soaked Wilbraham boys in The back- Tield slowed down under The pressing plaToon sysTem OT ChoaTe. PeTe Olsen, The sophomore goalie, was conTinualIy sTopping a deluge oT shoTs in The slippery goal. Grimly deTermined To geT back inTo The win column, we visiTed DeerTield To TighT The annual classic. DeerTield was our sTrongesT Toe, and The conTesT ended in an over- Time Tie oT O-O. A recognized soccer oTTicial waTching The game remarked ThaT iT was one oT The besT games he had seen in recenT years. The Tull-backs did a migniTicenT iob, while The half-backs bore The brunT oT The aTTack. During The overTime period Wilbraham ToughT so desperaTely To score ThaT Jim Davies and Joel Niper were Taken ouT oT The game wiTh injuries. BoTh Teams were well saTisTied wiTh The Tie, Tor DeerTield handed Loomis and ChoaTe solid deTeaTs. On FaTher's Day Monson Academy suTTered Their second deTeaT Trom The Wilbra- ham Team. Fred Jack Turned in a sTellar perTormance by accounTing Tor six goals in a 6-I smearing, which broke a one man scoring record. lv1T.l-lermon meT us in The lasT game under The same weaTher condiTions as ChoaTe.

Four boys on The Team showing Tremendous improvemenT ThroughouT The year were DwighT Gammons and Don Roy who assisTed aT The Tull-back posiTions, Les Reyn- olds aT righT inside, and Andy DragaT aT halT-back. McPherson, Kabayama, BernsTein, Sydney, VenTi, vonl-loorn and Ferguson rounded ouT The squad. NaT Bond and Bill MaroT very capably managed The Team ThroughouT The season.

Our TirsT encounTer was wiTh our biggesT rival, Monson Academy. The game sTarTed oTT wiTh Wilbraham having The advanTage in size and skill and ended wiTh Monson aT The lower end oT a 9-O score.

The abundance oT mud on The playing Tield proved To be a greaT dis- advanTage To our Team. Our spiriT was lowered considerably, aTTer losing a hard ToughT game, Two To one.

The Tinal game oT The season was anoTher wiTh Monson, buT This Time we played in Monson. Like The ChoaTe game, This one was played in The drizzling rain. On ThaT aTTernoon, we Threw our opponenTs OTT guard by our conTinual crossing oT The ball. We concluded The game wiTh a Tour To one score in our Tavor. The high scorer oT The Team was Fred ZiTer, who made Ten oT The TourTeen goals This season. The oTher goals were scored by George Meyer, who scored Two, and John Lippman and Dave Baker wiTh one apiece. The capTain oT The year, elecTed by The Team, was John Lippman, John Tilled The cenTer halTback posiTion during every game.

They were William Adamson, Selh Akin, Howard Handy, Roberl Hyde, John Knauss, George Meyer, Dick Morse, Erroll Reed, Jerry Ross, Paul Zarynoll, and Allen Wiegand. We had lwo coaches lhis year. Mr. Marlin, who was allending Springlield College lrom Hawaii, was our lirsl coach. He had lo leave Wilbraham and go back lo board- ing on lhe Springlield campus because lhe car which he had purchased lor S45 splil one ol ils pislons, and lherelore had lo be sold lor iunk. Luckily we received anolher very good coach, Mr. Burdge, a proclor al Wilbraham who was also allending Spring- lield College and who had done a lol ol wreslling in lhe unlimiled class lor lhe Springlield Varsily Wreslling leam and al Mounl Hermon. The group came a long way since il lirsl slarled lo wreslle. Al lirsl lhe boys hardly knew anylhing aboul wreslling bul lhey soon learned. We didn'l have any malches lhis year, because mosl ol lhe boys were quile green and didn'l know how lo wreslle, However, belore lhe season was over lhe boys nol only learned how lo wreslle, bul also how lo releree a malch and keep lrack ol lhe amounl ol poinls each man gels. When Mr. Burdge was able lo, he gol lickels and look us lo see lhe Springlield College Varsily Wreslling leam wreslle various colleges. Mr. Burdge divided lhe wreslling group inlo lwo learns ol six. These leams would wreslle againsl each olher. The winners would wreslle lo lind oul who was lhe besl wresller in each group, and lhen lhey would wreslle lo lind oul who was lhe besl wresller in lhe whole group. Nexl year, if we have lhe same boys oul lor wreslling, we will have a very good wreslling leam, and lhen we will have aboul seven malches wilh olher schools, and maybe we will have some malches wilh college lreshrnen leams. In each ol lhe weighl classes we had good wresllers. When Mr. Burdge wasn'l able lo meel lhe wreslling group, lhe boys look over lhe group and conlinued praclicing lhe various holds lhal Mr. Burdge had laughl us. Mr. Burdge lried lo gel Ray Sparks, who is lhe wreslling coach al Springlield College lo come oul and leach us how lo wreslle and lo give us olher lips on wreslling. ll is cerlain lhal lhe boys during lhe season have improved a greal deal lhanks lo Mr. Burdge's line coaching. july, Kmmf 59 WINTER TRACK The winTer Track season was one oT The besT enioyed aT Wilbraham in years. Mr. Shaw had a crew oT compeTenT veTerans and sure-Tire newcomers who highballed To a brillianT season. STarTing on February second in BosTon Garden, a relay Team oT Bob Sands, Don Foulds, Warren Williams, and Ted SchwerdTle, placed second in The BAA. Prep- school relays. Williams pulled The Team up Trom TourTh To second, and SchwerdTle held iT To The Tinish. TT was TelT aT The beginning oT The year ThaT The loss oT lasT year's sTar, Andy Dadagian, would hurT The Team, The Tear was groundless. Newcomer: Bob Sands, Tormer All-STaTe Rhode Island dashman, quickly became a Triple ThreaT, repeaTedly winning in The low hurdles, 300 yards, and 40 yard dashes. Warren Williams Tilled in Tor Andy in The 600, and he was The big surprise oT The season. Beginning wiTh his TerriTic run in The Garden, Willy was almosT unbeaT- able Tor The resT oT The season. Realizing ThaT Warren had had very liTTle previous Track experience, Mr. Shaw soon Tound ThaT he had a Truly Tine Trackman in Mr. Williams. VeTeran Ted SchwerdTle was back again, and he was his old reliable selT. Running neck and neck wiTh Sands all season, Ted provided many valuable poinTs To The Team's success. Besides being a Tine runner, Ted also was an inspiraTional Torce on The Team, and helped The boys To do Their besT. Sophomore Donald Foulds gave signs oT having TuTure greaTness as a middle- disTance runner Tor Wilbraham. AT The beginning oT The year, Don was undecided as To whaT his evenT would be, buT aTTer running and winning The T000 in our TirsT meeT, he sTuck To ThaT evenT and conTinued To improve ThroughouT The season. Joel Niper and Ted Loeb were our mainsTays in The high hurdles and close be- hind Sands in The lows. Joe, a veTeran oT lasT year, looked beTTer Than ever, and Ted, only a iunior, showed greaT promise. These boys were in The TirsT Three consisTenTly. Niper also Threw The shoT puT and ran in The 600. Tank Chamberlain led The shoT puTTers and did a righT good job aT iT. Under lvlr. Shaw's waTchTul eye, Tank soon developed inTo a sure poinT-geTTer and gave promise oT being a sTand-ouT. RighT behind him were Niper and 'Wild Bill Anderson. OTher sTeady perTormers were Ray Walke in The l0O0, Dave Olsen in The dashes and relay, Bill lvTaroT in The l000, and Bob Fiske and Tsugu in The relay. OThers like PeTer Kernicki, Bill Marcy, and PeTe Wilson showed sTeady improvemenT during The season and should Turn inTo Tine Trackmen. On The whole, we can say ThaT even Though shoveling The Track is hard work, and running mile aTTer mile in pracTice can geT boring, iT was well worTh The while Tor The swell season we had. Leonard Meym 60 RIFLE Begun over TiTTeen years ago, riTle has since been an acTive and successTul winTer sporT. OT The many boys shooTing each year, beTween Ten and Twelve are chosen Tor Team loerThs and a chance To compeTe wiTh various schools.

WiTh conscienTious and diligenT pracTice The aToremenTioned sharp- shooTers were molded inTo a Tormidable adversary Tor any compeTiTive Team. A schedule oT eighT maTches began wiTh a prone conquesT over Monson Academy aT The home range. The score was 489-472 wiTh Hibbard and von l'loorn shooTing superbly. The Tollowing day a Classical School quinTeT iourneyed To Wilbraham To bow by a 48l-454 Trouncing, led by Lippman and Brigham.

STUDENT COUNCIL The primary iob ol lhe sludenl Council lhis year has been lo help everyone lhal made up lhe Vifilbrahann lamily gel as much oul ol being on lhe Wilbraham campus as was possible. One ol ils chiel obieclives was lo unile everyone al Wilbraham inlo one big happy lamily. During ils work lhis year, il has lried lo benelil lrom lhe mis- lakes ol lhe pasl, while al lhe same lime keeping ils eyes open lo lhe lulure. Whal il accomplished lhis year has been very lrivial in comparison wilh lhe hopes il has, lhal, whal il did do, will grow inlo somelhing much beller and larger lhan il has ever been able lo do. This is whal has made ils work so slimulaling. On Falher's Day in lhe Fall, live seniors and lwo juniors were elecled by lheir fellow classmen lo lhe council. ll would be impossible lo lell all aboul whal each member did, Ted Schwerdlle was chairman ol lhe dance commillee, a capacily which he served well. Joe Bollaro was very handy wilh his arlislic abilily as well as wilh a lol ol good suggeslions.

Akin 68 STUDENT PROJECT I 95 I -52 During The course OT The school year, The STudenT Council sponsors a lOT OT acTiviTies, all OT which could be called STudenT Proie-cTs , buT we This year, have come To Think OT The words STudenT ProiecT as denoTing a prOiecT, The obiecTive OT which is To raise Tuncis To enable wOrThy boys To come To Wilbraham, especially Toreign boys, Thus helping To TurTher inTernaTiOnal relaTions as well as helping needy boys in our own counTry. Wifh Three years experience behind us, This year we were able noT only TO make Our STudenT PrOiecT bigger and beTTer, buT we were able To do iT wiTh much more ease. Because OT oTher maTTers such as Mid-Term Day, Senior Privileges, Bunion Derby, ChrisTmas CollecTion, and decoraTing Tor The dances, which heavily Taxed The Time OT The STudenT Council during The TirsT Two Terms OT The year, The STudenT ProiecT Tor l95I-52 school year wasn'T approached unTil The Spring Term. AT a meeTing OT The STudenT Council on April 5Th in The Rendezvous iT was unanimously decided ThaT we should have a STudenT ProiecT This year. The Three Cubed Plan probably besT describes The STudenT ProiecT Tor This year. The plan consisTed OT raising enough money To pay The expenses lnOT including TuiTiOn which is provided Tor by The schooll OT bringing Three boys To Wilbraham nexT year. This would include a boy Trom India, an American boy, and a repeaT OT one OT The Two STudenT ProiecT sTudenTs already aTTending Wilbraham. SoliciTaTiOn has always been The besT way To raise Tunds, buT has puT a heavy Tax on some boys. This year we had Three ways OT raising money. Uncle Charlie gave us a long Tree week-end, so ThaT all sTudenTs who wanTed To could go home and soliciT. Sending leTTers To The alumni and parenTs OT alumni OT Tive years back was a new meThod OT raising Tunds employed This year. A Third meThod was The manuTacTure and selling OT popcorn balls, which, alThough experimenTal, has many TuTure possibiliTies. The Three Cubed Plan had Three obiecTives - To raise The necessary Tunds, in- crease school spiriT, and help To sTabilize TuTure STudenT ProiecTs by esTablishing a sTudenT proiecT alumni OrganizaTiOn. The sTudenT body was Told abouT The proiecT April l4Th, abouT Two weeks beTore The Tree week-end, on which everyone wenT home TO soliciT. ln TronT OT The Two Tire- places in The lobby were hung large posTers wiTh big quesTion marks on Them. As Time drew near, These were replaced on one side by a map OT The world wiTh Wilbraham as The cenTral poinT. From Wilbraham proiecTed rays reaching TO The ciTies, Trom which sTudenT prOiecT boys have come, and To a Tew oTher major ciTie.s OT The world wiTh guesTiOn marks aTTached To These parTicular rays OT The TuTure. On The oTher manTelpiece was hung a display OT leTTers which had been received The previous year wiTh enclosures, cOmplimenTing us on The worThiness OT The Wilbraham STudenT ProiecTs, known To some, as The l.iTTle Marshall Plan . A surprise meeTing OT The sTudenT body was called on SaTurday, The 26Th OT April. AT This Time a Tew Talks were given by boTh masTers and sTudenTs, urging supporT OT The proiecT, beTOre Uncle Charlie announced ThaT anyone who wanTed To soliciT Tor The proiecT could Take The week-end. The enThusiasm ran high. BeTOrehancl, a group-cOnsisTing OT The STudenT Council and oTher persons deeply inTeresTed in The prOiecT was Tormed. This group discussed The meriTs OT such a greaT prOiecT and helped To solve any problems Or guesTions The sTudenTs mighT have con- cerning The proie-cT. l Think The Del Todo will leT us have a Tew more words here To Thank The members OT The Wilbraham STudenT Body and TaculTy who so wholehearTedly supporTed The prOiecT This year. Also, aT The same Time, we wish To Thank all OT The many Triends OT Wilbraham who cOnTribuTed so generously To This greaT cause. This year's prOiecT was anOTher greaT Wilbraham job, well done. May Wilbraham always perform such wOrThy iobs wiTh such a wOnderTul spiriT, 69 CHOIR AND GLEE CLUB Where There is singing There is happiness. Yes - ThaT is The primary Thing which made This year happy Tor The boys in The Glee Club. The warmTh and Triendliness oT The gaTherings Tor rehearsals were, in Themselves, worThy oT This phrase. IT was wonder- Tul To sing aT diTTerenT occasions ThroughouT The year, buT even The rehearsals Them- selves resTored gaieTy in all The members who aTTended. VVe were relieved oT our burdens Tor Three quarTers oT an hour Twice a weelc To gaTher in Triendship. These evenings noT one member shall TorgeT. The I95I-1952 season sTarTed wiTh a group oT boys enThusiasTic To sing. MosT oT us remained very TaiThTul To The regular Tuesday and Thursday evening rehearsals under The leadership oT Doc Floclcen. BoTh Doc and Mrs. Flocken should be Thanlced a greaT deal Tor The generous eTTorTs They gave To malce The group a successTul one. They bofh have given Their mosT needed energies To The many glee clubs aT Wilbraham Tor a greaT many years. There was The same number oT looys in This year's group as There was in The preceding year. IT can be iusTly said ThaT The voices Too equaled Those oT Their predecessors. There were many new members as There are almosT every year. The only Two remaining veTerans Trom lasT year were Dave NirensTein and Don Roy: ThereTore There were sixTeen new members. The TirsT Tenors were Andy DragaT, Bob Fiske, Dave NirensTein, and Les Reynolds: second Tenors-Ronny Marcy and Dave Olsen. The TirsT bases were Diclc Brigham, Jim Davies, Phil Erlenbach, DwighT Gammons, Max Lerner, Don Roy, and Ted SchwerdTleg second basses-NaT Bond, Dick Merry, Lenny Meyers, Lenny Sydney, and Dick von l-loorn. ln addiTion To singing aT The regular Sunday evening services, The Choir and Glee Club sang aT The Term dinners and alumni meeTings. Doc's selecTion oT anThems and miscellaneous songs are highly recommendable To any group. The boys always welcomed a new piece wiTh enThusiasm and pleasure. There was a visiTing group oT songsTers inviTed To sing wiTh us on Sunday eve- ning, February I7Th. They were girls Trom Mrs. Floclcen's choir in SpringTield. Enjoy- menT was had by all. IT was indeed TorTunaTe ThaT The young ladies could arrive despiTe The Tremendous snow sTorm ThaT evening. Since mosT oT us will be graduaTing This year, we hope Doc and Mrs. Floclcen have no diTTiculTy in Torming as ioyous and happy a group oT singers nexT year as we were This year. May our direcTors enioy many more years oT leading choirs and glee club groups aT Wilbraham. Dmmld j, Roy 70 2 I i s SCHOOL BAND This year, The Wilbraharn Band, under The direcTion and guidance OT Mr. Messenger, who Tormerly was a member oT The immorTal John Phillips Sousa Band, has added greaTly To The color and enioymenT oT The TooTball games. The band showed iTs versaTiliTy noT only in The abiliTy To play snappy march arrangemenTs. buT in adding a classical Touch wiTh iTs various arrangemenTs, played in coniuncTion wiTh The DramaTic Club plays aT The TerminaTion oT The Fall and WinTer Terms. ln spiTe oT The graduaTion oT our Tormer group oT players, we were exTremely TorTunaTe in having a large number oT boys who were able and inTeresTed enough To parTicipaTe in The new group. Some who had had no previous experience wiTh Their insTrumenT have rapidly masTered Them To The poinT oT proTiciency. Our Three able drummers, consisTing oT PeTer Kernicki, Fred Bemis, and Al Schade, Tormed The ToundaTion oT The band. Added To This was The brass secTion, including Mr. Kirwin, playing The Trombone, and Bob Faulkner, conTribuTing his TalenT on The TrumpeT. Dick von l-loorn, TogeTher wiTh Nick l-lolT, played The saxophone and clarineT, making up The reed secTion, which is a necessiTy Tor a well balanced bancl. During The preparaTion Tor The plays, Dick Valzonis oTTered his abiliTy as an accordionisT, adding a very unusual and successTul gualiTy To The band, The piano was ably managed by Don lllingworTh, who played To perTecTion as a resulT oT several years oT Training. ln addiTion To This ensemble, a group oT boys ThoughT advisable To organize a dance band, which would come inTo iTs own prominence aT The various dances held ThroughouT The year wiTh The MacDuTTie School. AT The dance which was held on Mid-Term Day , This newly Tormed band played some oT The old TavoriTes, such as, Blue Moon , Deep Purple , STardusT , and many more. This group consisTed OT George SaTz on The drums, Dick von l-loorn, giving his rendiTions on The saxophone: Paul Anderson and his dreamy TrumpeT music, Nick l-lolT and The mellow Tones oT his clarineTg and Don lllingworTh aT The piano. Rirlvmd 11011 Hoorfz 7 I DRAMATIC CLUB Following The Fall Term Dinner on December 3rd, The DramaTic Club, under The direcTion oT Mr. Crosby, presenTed Two quiTe diTTerenT one-acT plays. Open SecreT, a modern Thriller, dealT wiTh The problem oT aTomic power supremacy and evenTual desTrucTion oT The world. ScienTisT STeve Cohen was ably supporTed by Professor T-lanlc BernsTein, Colonel Lippman, General ZarynoTT, Secre?ary-oT-War DragaT and Corporals SchmiTT and Kerniclci. Eugene O'Neill's Where The Cross is Made TeaTured NaThaniel Bond as The conTused son, CarlTon Briggs as The younger broTher, Paul ZarynoTT as The mad TaTher, David Balcer as The docTor, and Bill SchmiTT, PeTe Kerniclci, and John Lippman as The Three specTres. Because oT sickness in The winTer Term, The play Charley's AunT was posTponed Trom March 8 To The middle oT The spring Term. Leonard Meyers and PeTer Ferguson as 72 Jack and Charlie persuade Their relucTanT Triend, FrancourT Babberlyf' played by NaThaniel Bond, To dress up as Charlie's AunT and acT as a chaperone To Their Two visiTing girl friends. The girls, Don lllingworTh and Bill SchmiTT, are deceived by The Talce aunT as is everyone else including The girls' guardian and Jaclcs TaTher, who are played by Ted SchwerclTle and STeve Sack. Finally, The real aunT, Bob Googins, and her ward, Dave Balcer, arrive on The scene and expose The Traud, Paul Zarynofl as The buTler, is The middleman in The whole aTlairg alThough he is proTicienT aT gaining his own ends, he insisTs ThaT college genTs'll do anyThing. For boTh plays, Jim Macpherson was sTage-manager: he was assisTed by Larry Lynch, Joe Kochanowicz, and Ralph FarnsworTh.

We have carried on fhe fradifion of infegrify and sincerify, buf we have fallen shorl' of producing a newspaper which is fo our school a vifal parf in campus life, nof for lack of fime, fhoughf, or efforfg nor from lack of inspirafion, maferial, or reporfers, for during fhis pasl' year we have done fhe besf we could under overpowering condifions. Our greafesf problem was, and always will be, financial. We could nof prinf an issue every week, nor splash our pages wifh picfures and carfoons, nor run greaf headlines, buf realizing where we sfood and being fhankful for whaf we had, we did whaf we could fo reproduce some of fhe hearfloreaks and vicfories on fhe afhlefic field, placing glory where if belonged, wrifing ediforials which would seem vifal fo fhe school, and yef nof so cynical or derogafory as fo cause bifferness and false impres- sions, and finally capfuring some of fhe mirfh which floafs around our campus. We offen wished for free reins in order fo wrife fruly inferesfing sfories, 'lo expose campus acfivifies or blemishes, or fo sef up a paper which was nof whaf 'lyears of 'rradifion deemed sensible. Happily we saw fhe era of Aflas' head end. and a new Aflas arrive. We prinfed a few leffers fo fhe ediforg we wish fhere were more. We prinfed a column of iokes which was all Wilbraham: we wish fhere were more. We produced some six page issues, we wish fhere could have been more. A Nof whaf we did buf whaf we didn'f do is fhe challenge which we pass on fo 'rhe juniors and sophomores.

R4y,,,0,,d Wake 74 George 1. Fallon DEL TODO Thanks To The backing ThaT The TaculTy and sTudenT body have given each year, There has been a new ediTion oT The Del Todo prinTed annually since I9l3. These books have varied greaTly, boTh in quanTiTy and in qualiTy. There is noT a color or a campus scene ThaT has noT appeared aT one Time or anoTher on The cover. SomeTimes The cover has been a simple paper one: oTher Times, by The conTribuTions oT The sTudenT body, iT has been a padded and an engraved one. SomeTimes, on The inTroducTory pages There have been carToons drawn by sTudenTsg aT oTher Times, such as This year, one oT The boys has made phoTographs Tor Those pages. Usually There is a mere TabulaTion oT acTiviTies nexT To The picTure oT each senior: This year we have supplied a shorT paragraph abouT each. AT any raTe, iT is plain To see ThaT each Del odo board would like iTs Tinished producT To be The besT yeT. A year book seems raTher unimporTanT To a greaT many boys. BuT, Taking a glance aT iT, when iT is dug ouT oT his archives someTime in The TuTure, any one of These boys will be greaTly pleased To siT back and look aT Those picTures oT his Teams, clubs, and classmaTes. OT course Those who will derive The greaTesT ioy are The ones who conTri- buTed arTicles, soliciTed adverTisemenTs, and compiled The book iTselT. For The ThirTieTh consecuTive year, The guiding hand oT The Del Todo has been ThaT oT Mr. Howe S. Newell. The sTudenT leaders oT The T952 year book were NaThaniel Bond, EdiTor in ChieTg Ronald Lerner, assisTanT EdiTorg RoberT Googins, Junior EdiTor3 Donald Roy, PhoTography EdiTorg Joseph BoTTaro, ArT EdiTorg and DwighT Gammons and STephen Tyler, Business STaTT. These are The boys who have really uT in all Their exTra Time and abiliTies in Trying To make Tor The Class oT I952, a Del Todo oT which They can be proud. Nalbaniel Bond 75 l SOCIAL EVENTS When social liTe aT VVilbraham is menTioned, ones ThoughTs naTurally Turn To The Three Tormal dances, held in The gymnasium aT The culminaTion OT each Term. AlThough These are quiTe ouTsTanding, we should noT TorgeT The oThers, such as FaThers' Weekend, held in November, ParenTs' Day in May: The Term Dinners, held aT The compleTion oT The Fall and WinTer Terms: and The several dances wiTh The Mac- DuTTie School, including The newly Tounded Mid-Term Day, during which The girls spenT The good parT oT The day aT Wilbraham. BuT. even aTTer considering all oT These annual evenTs, our minds go back again To The Tormal dances wiTh The wrong size Tux, The music and dancing, and The hour aTTer The dance. Thanks To The direcTion oT Ted SchwerdTle, and The hard work oT The Dance CommiTTee, The dances were a wonderTul success. 76 f F SCIENCE CLUB The year l952 aT VVilbraham Acedemy saw anoTher innovaTion in The form of The science club. Under The guidance of Mr. Roger ThursTon, The club was inTroduced To gain The inTeresT of Those boys who are inTrigued and inTeresTed in The field of science: however, any boy whefher iusf curious or inTenT upon following Through upon an experimenf or an idea is welcome. A boy may iusT be a member by name, buT is free To come whenever somefhing comes up ThaT inTeresTs him. This liberalness, on The parT of The club, is designed To geT The fellows To do work on Their own. The club Tries To sTress The scienTific meThod which in brief is: undersTanding of The problem, applicafion of scienTific knowledge, experimenTaTion, observaTion, and conclusion. The members have Tull use oT The facilifies of boTh The chemisfry and physics laborafories wiTh The supervision of Mr. ThursTon. Because The club is relafively new and sTill in The embryo sfage, all of Mr. ThursTon's plans To organize The club have noT, aT yeT, been consumaTed. During The year, some of The boys who were inTeresTed in cerTain fields of chemisTry did some research work and gave a lecTure To The resT of The club members abouT ThaT subiecf which They had exploiTed. Ray Walke gave one oT These lecTures abouT The rare earTh, TiTanium, He Told abouf iTs source, properfies, and use. Paul Kingsbury relafed his findings on explosives To The club members. Because oT The,exTreme inTeresT The boys showed Tor This Type of organizafion, iT is expecTed ThaT The Science Club will Tte a permanenf parT of The Wilbraham club sysTem in The years ThaT follow. The charTer members who parTicipaTed in The acTiviTies of The club were: Ray- mond Walke, Paul Kingsbury, Nick HOIT, William Summer, Ronald Marcy, James Menard, Frederic Bemis, RoberT KalleT, RoberT Kalischer. Lauri Hibbard, George Meyer, Frederic Flemings, James McPherson, William Brosseau, and George Fallon. DEBATINC- CLUB Due To The many and diverse mediums oT recreafion which are infended To en- TerTain and amuse The populaTion of The Unifed STaTes Today, one of The mosT edu- caTional and quick-wiTTed Types of enTerTainmenT is sinking To a new populariTy low. IT is True ThaT debaTing has been replaced by movies and Television: however, iT is a form of relaxafion ThaT should noT be passed by if The opporTuniTy arises To hear a good debafe. Nearly everybody likes To engage in a sharp argumenT on a desirable subiecT. This is even Truer in a school such as Wilbraham where discussions arise TreguenTly and if organized and presenfed well prove as inTeresTing To ofhers as To The immediafe parTicipanTs. The HisTory oT Wilbraham Tells us ThaT in l826 Old Club, a young men's de- bafing club and lyceum, was esTablished. Philo, a similar socieTy was esTablished abouT five years lafer. BoTh groups were furnished wiTh a room in Fisk Hall. These Two clubs provided The enTerTainmenT for many early Wilbraham sTudenTs and iT was in Fisk Hall ThaT The heafed debaTes on slavery and prohibifion Took place. ln I93I boTh clubs were disconfinued and debafing was losT To Wilbraham Tor The while. This, The year l952, sees The organizaTion of a new debafing club under The guidance and direcfion of Mr. Edgar Randolph. AlThough There are only Twelve acTual parficipanfs aT presenf, This organizaTion will very likely Take rooT here aT Wilbraham. Having been inauguraTed so recenTly There have been only Three debafes scheduled. The firsT covers The issue: Resolved ThaT Congress EnacT a Program oT Universal MiliTary Training. Upholding The aTTirmaTive will be Ronnie Lerner, Bill McAfee, and Dick von Hoorn while Nick HolT, Tom Chase, and Paul Anderson will argue The negafive. The Topic for The second will be: Resolved: ThaT The Presidenf of The Unifed STaTes should be elecTed by The direcT voTe of The people. Taking The affirmaTive will be Ronald Marcy, Errol Reed, and Earl Schwarfz. George SaTz, Roberf Googins, and Paul Cronin will uphold The negafive. The winners of These debaTes will clash on a Topic as yeT undecided. Serving as an incenfive will be Two money prizes To be awarded To The vicforious Team and To The mosl' promising speaker.

AT The Time oT The Two hundredTh anniversary oT The Town oT Wilbraham, a parade and pageanT was held. The old sTagecoach was one oT The hisToric ex- hibiTs. IT had resTed in The old livery sTable which has more recenTly been converTed inTo The Wilbraharri Fire STaTion. An agenT oT Henry Ford, who aTTended The bi-cenTennial because he was inTeresTed in The coach, evenTually purchased iT Tor The Ford museum in Dearborn, Michigan where iT may sTill be seen. When The arTisT Tor The L. 6. Bal- Tour Company oT ATTleboro, Mass. came To de- sign a cresT Tor our class pins and rings, he chose This symbol, Tor he TelT ThaT iT was disTincTive and symbolic oT The long hisTory. This drawing is sTylized and noT a replica oT The original coach. Donald Roy PhoTography EdiTor 80 K l K K C K l K K-K-l-K-K-K-K-l-K-K-Q-.
