As captain of the Wrestling Team and a letterman in foot- ball he has shown better than anyone else that size doesn't count when you've got skill, speed, and determination. In bull sessions and meetings of the Smoking Club he will be greatly missedg for he had one offthe most humorously-inclined minds at Woodberry, and his Con- stant good nature always made him welcome anywhere. Next year he intends to enter the University of Virginia where his truly unique personality should win for him as much success and popularity as he has had here at Wfoodberry. -Msg 2 2 In three sessions at Woodberry Forest Bogus has done exceptionally well in his studies-so well that his scholastic record is nowhere def1cient. Besides a remark- able aptitude for acquiring knowledge at exam time, he was known for his great stock of miscellaneous learning. This characteristic has made him very helpful to the staff that shows the Saturday night movies. His partici- pation in school activities has been mainly confined to the Dramatic and Smoking Clubs and the managership of the track teamg to the latter activity he applied him- self most earnestly for two seasons. As both victim and perpetrator of many harmless dormitory pranks Bill has been able to give and take as well as anyone. Next year Georgetown University and a law course are his aims. Bogus WILLIAM A. BoGGs WASHINGTON, D. C. Z3 Eg..- 00651565 Z 0Z6.4f Q46 1937 Cl QW Chick MOSBY GOODING CARDozo RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Mosby's departure this June will leave a terrific gap in almost every form of school activities, athletics, and administration. Seldom is Woodberry so fortunate as to have such an all-round boy in every way as this year's Senior Prefect. Chick knew everybody and treated everybody, from the smallest rat to his best friends, in a generous, friendly manner. No one was ever more Welcome or more in demand anywhere. Possessing the true versatility of a natural athlete, he earned the distinction of being a three-letter man last year as well as this, While as captain of football for the past Fall he Hlled his station so well that he Was placed on the All-State prep eleven. The good judgment, sound character, and Winning personality so predominant in him here should certainly carry Mosby far 'at the University of Virginia. -asgf 24 During his three years at Woodberry, Howard, in his unobtrusive manner, has proven an important asset. Concealed under his congenial, carefree personality is a grim determination which has enabled him to rise above the ranks in every phase of school life. Howard showed this determination in his work on the track team more than in anything else, missing his letter last year by a slim margin. This year, however, he is practically cer- tain to make one, and few will be more deserving, as his natural ability coupled with diligent work will make him truly valuable to the team. Pash, a Prefect, and prominently connected with the FIR TREE and Omrle Boards, as well as being an excellent student, may honestly consider his stay at Woodberry a complete success.

This year as a Prefect and Captain of the track team he has amply fulfilled the promise he showed as a rat, With Prince- ton as a goal he has been one of the hardest workers in school along scholastic lines and completes with gradua- tion a record of always having kept in the upper fourth of his class. Like most Texans l'Gibbony was not ef- fusiveg but he had many friends who were drawn by his modesty, sincerity, and steadfast defense of what he believed. These qualities, combined with his many other tal- ents, should make him one of the Schoo1's most outstand- ing alumni in college and the years to come. -..,.,Qf 2 5 During his three years at Wfoodberry, John's out- standing achievement was the organization of a school orchestra. The School had long been in need of just such an addition to its extra-curricular activities, and Jan Dumanoffn led the way. In the face of many difficulties and even ridicule, John set about his task in an enthusiastic and wholehearted manner. After much hard work he succeeded in producing an orchestra which was certainly a credit to the School. Instead of specializing in any particular sport, John took part in them all. He was a member of the foot- ball, wrestling, and tennis squads and even found time for golf. John's friends and the bridge playing contingent of the Smoking Club will miss his particular kind of humor. They wish him the best of luck. l JOHN Hicks DUMAS TALLADEGA, ALABAMA 27 0015671 Clwiiddi Q46 1937 Cl QW I Billy WILLIAM WILLS GREEN TARBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Bill is one of those boys who has worked silently in the background and somehow failed to get the credit that he deserves. Having been vitally interested in his duties of directing the photographic department of the FIR TREE and operating the moving picture projector on Saturday and Sunday, Bill has had his time reserved months in advance. However, he has been able to make his scholastic record one continuous climb since his entrance last year. His opening average, good at eighty-four, soon reached a ninety per cent level which placed him second in his form. It is virtually an assured thing that Bill is headed for a brilliant technical career. Woodberry's loss of one of his type will ever be keenly felt. -..gif 2 3 Through four years Bobby has had to devote himself mostly to his studies. Though not naturally brilliant, he has through real perseverance advanced to the Sixth Form successfully. The necessity for spending more time than usual on his school work has kept him out of athletics somewhat. Although he possesses the ability to do Well in sports, he has been unable to discover his particular calling and as a result has engaged in almost every sport the School can offer. Such varied participa- tion has enabled him to attain a very commendable physique. Always cheerful and friendly, Bobby nevertheless did not circulate around much, but spent most of his time with a group of boys who were equally interested in che outdoors. Bobby ROBERT WALKER GROVES SAVANNAH, GEORGIA 29 oavfdezz Jrzeaf Q46 1937 Ja QW Camrzova JACK I-IINE TUINUCU, CUBA There is in every school a group of boys who come, pass on, and are forgotten. To such a class Jack is as alien as anyone could very well manage to be. He came, he must soon pass on, but it will be long before he is forgotten. The School owes this really outstanding boy a big debt of gratitude for the many services he has rendered. Most notable of these Were his positions as Treasurer of the Chapel Council, a member of the Senior Council and President of the G.A.A. In addition to this remarkable record he was known for his sense of humor and general popularity. Jack expects to continue his scholastic career at the University of North Carolina, Where there is little doubt he will make a record for himself equal to the excellent one he has established here. -sggf 30 Pieter is one of those quiet, rather inconspicuous boys who don't enter into a great many school activities but who always make a good job of what they do attempt-whether it be making friends, mastering diffi- cult studies, or becoming proficient in some form of athletics. In his two years here he has kept his general average regularly on the Honorable Mention list, while his interests in extra-curricula activities have been track, golf, and the Smoking Club. His main ambition at Woodberry has been in the academic field, to which he has almost exclusively devoted his time and abilities. After leaving here Pieter plans to enter the Naval Academy, and it is practically assured that he will be successful at even that difficult institution. Q 1 Q4 Q M f I un! , V . .7151 .

Through his sharp repartee and ready humor he has likewise made for himself a select circle of friends. In football par- ticularly did he excel, earning a varsity letter by his hard driving and tackling. This spring he is expected to be one of the baseball team's mainstays, while during his three years Tom has also been on the varsity basketball and wrestling squads. His scholastic standing disproves the old theory that brains and athletic ability do not go together, for he has consistently kept his average above eighty-five. However, it is not for these admirable traits that Tommy will be long remembered, but for his keen wit and readiness to give or take a joke. He plans to con- tinue his education at the Naval Academy next Fall Where he seems assured of success. -MH 3 2 In five years Roddy has developed remarkably in every way, and as a Sixth Former he has been one of the most popular and widely admired boys in the upper forms. Tarzan fits him exactly, for never in five years has he neglected to build himself up by varied types of exercise, with the result that he now possesses one of the finest physiques in school. His determination manifested itself in the Way he went at his work on che track team, and the diligence with which he worked at his studies. Though he was a fine all-round ath- lete, he has been particularly prominent in football and on the track team, of which he was a valuable quarter- miler. There are very few boys who will leave behind as many friends as Roddy. Everyone is confident his abil- ity and personal charm will carry him far. Tarzan, Roddy, Pinhfad GEORGE E. KIDDEI1 WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA 35 colder: azea lyfte fQ37 cle Que Bob ROBERT RUFFIN KING GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Three years ago when the usual turmoil that ensues at the beginning of school had subsided, Bob was just another towhead in the crowd of bewildered new boys. Since then he has been coming up in the public eye equally as fast as he has gained pounds and inches. Athletically he has done best in football and wrestling, though he plays a good game of golf and tennis and has been a worthy contestant in track. His academic work has been above average, and he has often ex- celled in certain subjects. Good nature and a carefree personality were but an outer covering for what his best friends recognized as real sincerity and worth. Whether it's to Carolina or Princeton that Bob goes this coming fall, his unusual personality will make him a man of value. 34 Although John has not been particularly outstand- ing in extra-curricula activities during his five years at Woodberry, he, nevertheless, has won for himself a definite place here. Invariably his name appeared on the Honorable Mention list, and he was credited by everyone as having a very keen mind. Taking little interest in other athletics, with the exception of wrestling, John spent most of his time horseback riding, being elected President of the Riding Club this year. The Way he has stuck at this form of exercise and his development into a real horseman is a real credit to him. Exceptionally quiet and modest, he has in an unspectacular way become a very valuable part of the Book and Dramatic Clubs. S0 far he is undecided as to where he will attend collegeg wherever that may be, it is practically cer- tain he will succeed if he continues to combine pertinac- ity with natural aptitude as he has here. Iobrz JOHN LLEWELLYN LEWIS, JR. ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA J 3 s aowgdeze new QQ 1937 cle Que I ! Groundbog LAWRENCE LEWIS, JR. ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA K In five years at Wwdberry Lawrence earned the reputation of being the most ludicrous and humorous boy in school. He kept his companions in a constant up- roar with his wild antics. But the impression should not be taken that Grouny was never serious. He had one of the most attractive personalities in school and possessed likewise a great deal of common sense. Even though hindered by an annual attack of pneu- monia, he made a very creditable showing in varsity football and won a letter in wrestling. His outstanding achievement consisted in being elected President of the Hop Committee which instituted the new German Club. Lawrence is still undecided as to his plans for next yearg but wherever he goes the sincere good wishes of his many friends here will follow him. -as-if 36 Hood's influence in school has been of the unobtru- sive kind. For three years he has been doing average work in his studies, excelling in history and doing a good deal of outside reading and study. This and his experience as assistant in the library have made him a capable veteran of the Current Events and Book Clubs. Athletics have seemed to hold no particular interest for Barbells, until this year when he did a good deal of Work on the wrestling squad. His retiring nature and self-seclusion kept him from making a wide circle of friends. In his various lines of endeavor he has shown dili- gence and slow-but-sure characteristics that should be of great help to him at Pennsylvania where he intends to study economics and commerce.

His scholastic standing has always been well above average and has occasionally reached almost to the top of his classg in athletics he has variously de- voted his time to football, wrestling, golf and tennis. His experience on last year's team should make him one of this spring's most valuable players in the latter sport. A remarkable ability to concentrate efficiently has left Rich free to make many friends, attend to his Work as Business Manager of the Orfzrle, and satisfy his love of swing music in the School orchestra and listening to Mr. Lathanfs radio-victtola. The entire School unites in Wishing success at Princeton for this popular and capable boy. -..ggi 3 8 With his graduation Perrin leaves behind him many friends who will miss the effects of his sunny disposi- tion and good humor. Being a consistent participant in the extra-curricula activities at Woodberry, and having a natural talent for music, he is making himself an in- tegral part of both the choir and school orchestra. Taking his athletics with equal determination, Per- rin was a fine golfer and a member of the track squad. He also utilized much of his spare time with the Current Events Club and the Dramatic Club. His serious manner and constant desire to please made him one of the most generally liked boys in the whole student body. A boy of Perrinis type is an essential part of every school. His personality should carry him far.

Ranking fore- most is the laudable work that he performed this Fall as center on the varsity football team, for which he received a letter. Varsity wrestling and baseball have taken up his time in the other two terms while he has been also a long-standing member of the Book Club and Smoking Club. It was in the latter that his carefree personality showed to best advantage. Whatever he has done here in other Ways is eclipsed by the popularity he has gained and the wholesome Way in which he af- fected those around him. So far, Pete hasnit decided where he will go to col- lege, but everyone feels that he Will be an asset to any community into which he may venture. -..ggi 40 David's keen wit has earned for him the position as co-author of Trivia , the humor section of the Orarle. His amusing poems, which he has written more consistently than anyone in a long time, have been well above the average. Last spring Dave discovered his calling in the tan- gible form of a cinder track. Even then he encoun- tered a little mixup on che question of what suited him best. Finally, he chose the half-mile and did remark- ably well in the short time left in the season. He should be better this spring and more than likely will prove the mainstay of the team in this event. In David the School is regretfully losing one more of its progressive sons. ...Q Daw DAVID BURTON RICKS WINSTON-SALEM, NORTH CAROLINA 41 EQ..- 001462 'zz C2 C6.4i QQ 15237 cle Qzee C. H. CHARLES HALL ROBINSON ELIZABETH CITY, NORTH CAROLINA In two years UC. H. has done more than many can do in four. His all too brief career at Woodberry has been full of achievements and honors, but the reputa- tion for sound character and all-round dependability that he has made for himself will be more remem- bered than anything else he has accomplished here. In addition to the prestige he earned as a Prefect and an exceptional football player he was one of the most likeable and respected boys in the Sixth Form. His straight-forwardness and sincerity were as evident to those who knew him best as his athletic prowess was to those who saw him perform on the gridiron. Popular, able, and conscientious C, H. is what everyone likes to think is the typical example of a Woodberry graduate. -'wif 42 Dennis has been at Woodberry only two years, in which time he has proved himself to be a capable, if ir- regular, student. One of the most consistent members of the Smoking Club, Monk was an enthusiastic bridge shark and spent a great deal of his time in the Smoking Room. In spite of the fact that he was several times han- dicapped by injuries, Dennis turned out to be an able athlete. He was a member of the Varsity Football Squad and had worked his way to a post at half back when an untimely injury put an end to his career. During the winter and spring months he turned to track in which he served the team as hurdler and high-jumper. In September he plans to enter the Naval Academy.

He remains consist- ently near the top of his form in his studies, yet each term finds him taking an outstanding part in one of the major sports and in various extra-curricular activi- ties as well. This year he somehow has managed to divide his time among his duties as president of the Book Club, and assistant-editor of both the FIR TREE and the Orafle, and a leading member of the Current Events Club. To top it all, he has gained a well-deserved position on the Prefect Board. Phil's achievements have left no mark of conceit upon him, and his subtle humor makes him the very best of company. His many friends will be wishing him even more success at Princeton next year. -..gf 44 Here is a boy of Whom Woodberry is very proud. Not only is the School proud of him from the standpoint of an athlete and a scholar, but for the fact that he possesses an even temperament and sincerity that made all who came in Contact with him admire his generous, friendly manner. There is no question as to his academic qualifica- tions, for his name often reached as high as the Honor Roll. In athletics, especially, did he excel, and he has to his credit the record of being a member of two All-State teams-basketball and football. For these accomplish- ments and his universal popularity Steg', was made a member of the Prefect Board-an honor rarely accorded a second-year boy. The qualities that have won for him so much here will assure him of success at the University of Georgia.

All through that time he has been remarkable for the number and variety of his friends. Though not a brilliant athlete, his ability along that line was evi- dent in his work on the varsity basketball and base- ball squads and his position on the tennis ladder. Winston has gotten the most out of Woodberry in a way few others have, taking the good with the bad, devoting himself to lines in which he could do best, and always enjoying himself. That he is both a hard worker and an able manager along any lines is well illustrated by his notable achievements and his con- sistent Honorable Mention Average. Next year it's Davidson. -..gf 46 For three years Charles has been one of NVoodberry's outstanding boys-in athletics, scholarship, and extra- curricular activities. He is admired for these traitsg but it is his ready good humor and personality which makes him so popular. During his senior year he captained the State-Championship Midget football team, was a mem- ber of the wrestling team, and held positions on both the School publications. In scholastic work, however, Charles was at his best. His name appeared regularly on the Honorable Mention list and more than once on the Honor Roll. These merits gave him a well-earned place on the Prefect Board. His sense of humor was always presentg and he will be remembered not only for the important positions which he filled so capably but also for his ready smile and conviviality. His depar- ture will leave a place in the School that cannot easily be refilled.

He succeeded in making a letter in this sport and always proved a worthy op- ponent to whomever he wrestled, winning easily the majority of his matches. In all his time at Woodberry, Bill has been a per- son of the out-of-door type. He seems to have an inborne desire which calls him into the wide open places. However, Bill has also acquired a number of con- genial friends by his unfailing sense of humor and frank personality. As a member of the Prefect Board for two years, Van has shown great forcefulness and strength of character, which have carried him far and will continue to do so in whatever Held of endeavour he may enter. -..if 48 During his three years at Woodberry Jimmy has gradually but consistently increased his prestige as a wrestler and a student. He got his start on the mat team in the 105 lb. class and has since developed into one of the School's best grapplers, being one of the three letter- men to return this season. Never particularly associated with any group or per- son, Strangler nevertheless had a large number of friends who fully recognized his worth. His enthusi- asm and hard work have filed for him a permanent place on che Honorable Mention listg such consistency is sure to carry him through Cornell with compara- tive ease. Realizing his value to the School as an atnlete and a student, everyone will feel the absence of his ability in both respects next year. Sfmnglcr JAMES W.

WOODBERRY FOREST, VIRGINIA When Bill graduates this year he will leave behind the unparalleled record of having been a student at Woodberry Forest for eight years. However Mick was not dullg he merely took the time to take every course in school. In athletics he has been above aver- age, both as a member of the varsity football squad for three years and a sprinter on the track team for five. Always amiable, he has entered most heartily into school activities of the lighter vein, contributing to the humorous aspect of countless informal gatherings. As both student and resident at Woodberry Forest for so many years Mick has become a real part of the community and will be sorely missed next year. In September he will leave for Virginia to join the ranks of Woodberry boys already there. -..ggi 5 0 In the two years that he has been here George has shown such really outstanding abilities and character- istics that he has made, even in this short time, one of the most commendable records in the Senior Class. Besides being a major factor on the football teams of both ,35 and '36 he has distinguished himself ad- mirably in basketball and track during each session. Always well-groomed, smiling, and agreeable, George took things as they came, calmly. As a reputed lady-killer he was continually kidded, yet such joking never affected him Or injured his wide popularity. He will continue next year at Pennsylvania or Virginia where his name will certainly be often heard in connection with outstanding Alumni. For no one does the School wish more sincerely a life Of success and happiness.

XVINSTON-SALEM, NORTH CAROLINA Clay Williams has had the confidence and trust of the faculty in greater degree than almost anyone else in school. That this trust has not been misplaced is evident in the way he has handled his important posi- tions as Editor-in-Chief of the Orarle and Chairman of the Honor Committee. Naturally quiet and reserved, ClaX has made his circle of friends intimate rather than all-inclusive. His extreme modesty in every re- spect might be called harmful were it not for the splen- did impression he always makes. Besides commanding the envy and admiration of the whole student body with close to the highest averages ever made here, he has for two seasons been Working hard as a quarter miler. In the years to come his progress at Princeton will be watched with more than ordinary interest. --H-if sz 5 3 Last year the second floor of cottage AU was fre- quently the scene of many nocturnal battles. You may be sure, however, that one individual was faithfully pursuing his studies. This was none other than Walter XVilson, one of the School's Florida contingent. As a re- sult of this determination Toots has succeeded in keeping Old Man Study Hall in the dim distance. Passing the cottage A test, Walter proved him- self to be a good fellow, liked by all who knew him. Though he has not had much time to enter into school activities or make an outstanding record in his brief stay here, it is to be hoped that someone of equal good nature and Congeniality will come along to fill his shoes in the future here at Woodberry.

MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA 00651562 Z 026.4 QL 1937 Cla QW Pool-bead CLARKE WORTHINGTON STAUNTON, VIRGINIA Although Clarke has only been a member of our community for two years, he has firmly established himself by his friendliness for everyone and the valu- able part he has played in school affairs. Whenever the cards were dealt or smoke rings blown, you may be sure that Poot was present, taking an active part in the bull-session. Clarke is also an athlete par-excellence, winning a well-deserved place on the second team All- State eleven, which was made directly possible by his splendid work as a defensive linesman. As Vice-President of the Hop Committee this year, Clarke has done much toward making the German Club a success. His genial personality should help him in his business career. 54 Throughout his stay at Woodberry Tom has been known as something of a ladies, man-always appear- ing neat, well-groomed, and good looking. On the junior varsity football team, his main athletic inter- est, he showed both skill and determination. In the academic field his consistent Honorable Mention aver- age kept him near the top of his form. His oratorical genius was evidenced by the fact that he was a member of the Public Speaking Honor Society during each of his three years, as well as being outstanding on the Chapel Council and in the Dramatic Club. These numerous activities, combined with his all-round de- pendability and worthiness, won for him a well-d2- served place on the Prefect Board. We have listed his accomplishments but have omitted his good humored, friendly personality which has to be known to be truly appreciated. Next year he goes on to either Carolina or Princeton. 3 ' is Tom THOMAS HENRY WRIGHT, JR. WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA 5 5 EQ..- l , W1 OOJXZZZ 0164i Q46 193 7 Cl, QW 1 s Slray SHERROD RAY WHITTEN NEW YORK, N. Y. This community has only begun to get acquainted with Ray when it finds him passing out of its active life. In the short time he has been here he has shown himself to be a hard worker in spite of the many dis- couragements that face the unprepared new boy. Ray has not had a great deal of time for athletics, but his extra hours have been taken up, for the most part, by tennis and golf. During the winter term, especially, he was kept pretty busy with the Spears-Whitten feud that ended almost every Sunday in the wrestling room. In every respect he has shown willingness to co- operate and interest in school life. On B-3 his drawling speech made him a real character and, those who know him there will certainly miss him. 5 6 W S7 f X U dd: MTU! if JTC! I QA. 1937 Cl. Q... sg V, It I W ,I I 1 A . ',g,,.

Even by lunch-time Friday the visiting girls had already begun to arriveg and as the afternoon wore on and their number increased, prospects for a successful week-end grew brighter and brighter. There was a banquet held at 7:30 for the varsity teams, several school organizations, and the boys who invited girls. The tables were beautifully decorated in a Valentine design, which also served as a decoration plan in the ball-room. Music was furnished by jimmy Poyner and His Orchestra, one of the South's most popular bands. Dancing continued until two o'clock Saturday morning when, much to everyone's regret, the late hour forced its termination. It was a complete success in every way, with the largest crowd of girls ever to attend a Winter dance being present. Jimmy Poyner had played on the same occasion the previous year and was so popular that he was obtained for the 1937 Hop. On the next morning, or rather the same morning, the couples again reassembled in the hall for the informal morning dance which lasted from eleven until two. Regret- fully the dancers listened to the strains of Jimmy's theme song and realized that a per- fect week-end had come to a close. The Hop Committee deserves a great deal of credit for the work that they did in decorating the hall and securing an excellent orchestra. 81 oavfdezz azeaf lyfw 1937 clz Pl-Zzee Bulk mu-W'nrren, Hole, Bnrnlmrdr, Boatwright, Means.

The cast includ- ed Ed Middleton in the leading role G of the Bishop, Mrs. Virginia Snead as Lady Emily Lyons, the Bishop's old-maid sister, Mrs. J. M. Mercer as Hester Grantham, a beautiful girl who had become involved in the crime by accident, Miss Eleanor Hill as Mrs. Waller, a rich woman who is in constant disagreement with her husband, Guy Waller, whose part was taken by Bill Larnedg George Webster represented Donald Meadows, handsome fiance of Miss Grantham. These important parts were supported by Brent Vfarren in the role of Red Eagan, an unscrupulous bar tender, John Boyd as Frenchy, one of Meadows' accomplicesg Hugh Hole as Collins, the Bishops chaulfeurg and Perrin Quarles as Mr. Brooke, the Bishops secretary. The scene opens in a pub taproom after a serious holdup and robbery. The Bishop, who has a secret passion for detective stories, becomes interested in the crime and, by watching the suspicious actions of Red Eagan, the bar keeper, discovers the loot. Knowing that the highwaymen will follow him to his home, he transports the treasure there and hiding it, awaits developments. The gang soon comes to the house in search of the jewels, and though at times the clergyman is at bay, he finally captures the entire gang by clever strategy and with the nervous aid of his sister. Wrong is then righred by the Bishop, who gives the hero and heroine his blessing, and the play closes with a happy conclusion to his holiness' great adventure. 85 lit wajdeez cl'-cealf P... QL 1937 CA 4 WINTER PLAYS The Woodberry Forest Dramatic Club gave two one act plays, A Natural Conclu- sionn, by Charles Kennedy and The Late Captain Crow , by Louise Armstrong, for its usual Winter term presentation. The cast of the first drama included Bill Larned as Collins, the detective, Hugh Hole as Milton, a desperate young man, Simmons Jones as the valetg and Bill Smith as the realist, Brainerd. The play is based on the fact that in court the outcome depends, not on what one may say or think, but on the jury's opinion. The plot begins with the frantic Milton devising a plan to kill himself and leave evidence that would send his rival in love, Brainerd, to the chair. The former comes to Brainerd's home, and a fierce quarrel ensues in which the host refuses to give up his engagement with Milton's former sweetheart. The disagreement ends by the older man's choking Milton to quiet him. The rash young lover takes poison when Brainerd's back is turned and is dead when Collins enters unexpectedly. By means of a slim clue the de- tective clears Brainerd from all blame for the other manls death. ae Pk as wk as vs After a short interval the next play, The Late Captain Crow , was presented. The scene is laid on a pirate vessel anchored in a Spanish port in the early part of the eighteenth century. Some diamonds of fabulous wealth are the center of the plot, and the murderous crew try to discover their hiding place by torturing a Spanish carpenter. The production is full of action, drama, and comedy and was very effectively rendered. The following is a list of the characters: RALPH GLASBY ...,,......,. ,... H ugh Chatham THOMAS HAws .... ....

FOOTBALL The Woodberry Forest eleven opened the 1936 gridiron campaign with prospects comparatively dim for a successful season. The coaching staff, led by Mr. J. D. Frost, who replaced Mr. Dick as head coach, was at the beginning of the season confronted with the problem of developing capable re- serve material. However, with such back- field men as Captain Cardozo, George Webster, and Jack Hine returning, the coaches were able to place an aggressive, hard-driving, but light aggregation on the field for the first game, played at Wood- berry against Lane High School. The Tigermen, hampered throughout the year by numerous injuries, rose to their great- est heights against Washington and Lee High School, displaying excellent punting and a strong defensive eleven. However, on No- vember 21, Woodberry was badly defeated by the powerful Episcopal team in the clos- ing battle of the year, which evened the series between the two ancient rivals. Wood- berry ended the season with a record of six victories against three defeats, two of which occurred early in the season. On September 25, with only two weeks' practice, Woodberry took the field against Lane High School of Charlottesville and was victorious by a score of 6-0. Many early season errors were prevalent in the Tiger attack, but also much potential power was uncovered in a game marred by fre- quent fumbles and penalties. Woodberry pushed over its lone score in the third period when Clements drove 15 yards off tackle for a touchdown. Captain Cardozo's try for ex- tra point was wide. Victory was almost snatched from the Forestmen in the fourth quarter when Deane of Lane cut back out- side of tackle to race 55 yards before being overtaken by Morris of the Tigers on the 10 -..si 94 yard line. The home team braced at this point to take the ball on downs and cinch victory. On Saturday, October 3, the Wood- berry eleven traveled to Richmond where it was the guest of the St. Christopher team. The Tigers were set down, 13-0, by a strong aggregation before a crowd of 1,000 spectators. Woodberry was partially handi- capped by the loss of George Webster, whose superb punting had previously pulled his team-mates out of trouble. Consequent- ly, the visitors continually lost ground by not being able to match the kicking attack of their opponents. The first quarter saw Woodberry make its only serious bid for a touchdown, when the team, led by Cardozo, paraded 50 yards by dint of passes and power plays deep into Saint territory. However, St. Christo- pher took the ball on downs and thereafter remained out of danger. In an effort to avenge the previous week's defeat, Woodberry, playing away from home, marched into the classy Virginia Episcopal eleven on October 10th only to be again defeated by the slim margin of 13-6. Neitherf team played inspired foot- fall after the first quarter, as the hot, sultry weather made such play impossible. It was in this period, when the Tigermen were still fresh, that Woodberry scored its only marker of the game. The touchdown was made possible by a 15 yard penalty against V.E.S. and excellent running on the part of Mosby Cardozo and Jack Hine. After this, Virginia Episcopal was continually in Woodberry territory due largely to fine punting which kept the visitors constantly on the defensive. V. E. S. scored both of its touchdowns by passes, thus uncovering a flaw in the Tiger defense. As the game ended, Woodberry was pushing to a second score with the ball deep in enemy territory. Playing on the home field, Woodberry defeated Fishburne Military School, 12-6, on October 17. The home team scored early in the first period after Covington had broken through the line and run 21 yards to the 18-yard stripe. Two plays failed, after which Cardozo circled left end to 95 131-W score standing up. Stegeman missed the try for point. At the beginning of the second quarter Cone of the visitors passed to Strand who raced 55 yards to score. The Tigers scored again in the same period, driving in from own territory on mixed passes and Cardozo went over from the four- their runs. yard line. The smashing defensive play of Robin- son at tackle and the running of Cardozo featured for Woodberry. The locals made 11 first downs while Fishburne gained none. On October 24th, Woodberry journeyed from home to clash with Randolph-Macon Academy of Front Royal, Virginia. In an excellent exhibition of football the Cadets were downed by an improved Tiger eleven, 20 to 0. Early in the first frame, on a beau- tiful pass from Hine to Stegeman who lateraled to Bill Adams, Woodberry scored its first marker. With the removal of Car- dozo, Robinson, and Hine, Woodberry was unable to gain consistently for the re- mainder of the half, but at the opening of the second half, the Tigermen scored again after Bill Adams, interception of an R. M. A. pass. Archer accounted for the third marker of the game, racing 50 yards through a broken field for a touchdown. The punting of Boatwright was outstand- ing for Woodberry. Rising to its greatest height during the season, the Woodberry eleven turned back the fast Washington and Lee High School on October 30th, 14 to 6. The whole team played inspired ball throughout the en- counter. Late in the first half Woodberry was able to cross the visitor's goal line after Covington and johnson had placed the ball .. am... 00gA6ZZ Otealf 'W QL 1937 Cla QW H 3. in scoring position. A varied passing attack built around Stegeman and George Adams accounted for the score. At the first part of the second half Boatwright intercepted a W. and L. pass and ran 50 yards for a touchdown to make the second tally behind the excellent blocking of Robinson and Worthington. Washington and Lee was con- tinually kept on the defensive by the accu- rate punting of Edgar Boatwright. The game ended after the visitors had pushed over their lone score by dint of a line plunge. November 6 saw the Tiger eleven van- quish Randolph Macon B team by a score of 26-0 on Hanes Field. The visitors offered stubborn resistance throughout the first half, which ended with the home team leading, 6-0, after Webster had scored on a short line smash. Shortly after the intermission Webster climaxed a long march with his second touchdown. While Campbell bore the brunt of another offensive drive, Woodberry chalked up a third tally in the third period. The home team scored once more in the last quarter on Bill Adams' wide run around right end. After the first few minutes, when Randolph-Macon made three succes- sive first downs, the visitors did not near scoring territory. On Saturday, November 14, the Tigers won their fifth straight game of the season over National Training School, 38-0. The locals' goal line was never seriously menaced although the second and third teams played a large part of the game. Two long marches in the first period resulted in touchdowns by Bill Adams and Judkins, the latter score coming on a nice pass by Covington into the end zone. At this point Training School stiffened and held the home team scoreless throughout the second quarter. The Washington team weakened in the last half before the drives of a substitute Woodberry eleven which contributed four more touchdowns to the total. Long, Woodberry back, executed the most illustrious play of che game When he inter- cepted a pass on his own 40-yard line and raced 60 yards for a touchdown. Excellent blocking, especially by Worthington, made the lengthy, broken-field dash possible. On Saturday, November 21, Episcopal High School and Woodberry Forest met on Hanes Field for the 37th renewal of their annual contest. The traditional rivals from Alexandria, who acclaimed their team as the strongest within the last decade, proved too powerful for the light but hard-fighting Tigermen, winning by a score of 26-0. Never in the entire game was Woodberry a serious threat to the heavier Episcopal eleven, although in the second half a tre- mendous improvement was shown, and Woodberry, held together by the superior playing of Cardozo, Robinson, and Worth- ington, equaled the power which the Church- men had exhibited in the first half. The contest started with Woodberry kick- ing to Episcopal, and, after several first downs, the ball was moved to midfield Where Goodwin of High School went wide around right end for the first score of the game. The try for extra point was unsuccessful. The quarter ended with High School in pos- session of the ball on the Tiger 28-yard stripe. Early in the second quarter Goodwin again circled end for a touchdown, which came partially as the result of a short Wood- berry punt in the previous quarter. The extra point was good. Choosing to receive the kick-off, Woodberry lost the ball when Harbarson, visiting left end, intercepted a pass on the 40-yard stripe. But Robinson of Woodberry stopped three successive line plays, forcing E. H. S. to kick to Coving- ton on the latter's 25-yard line. However, George Adams' return punt was blocked which ultimately resulted in another touch- ---E+ 96 down-made by dint of several line plays and a pass. In the second half Woodberry showed its greatest power by holding off the visitors when they had driven inside the 15-yard line, but in the last moments of the game a short kick and an intercepted pass enabled the combined forces of Goodwin and Wal- drop to shove across the game's final score. It was at this point that the Tiger offense began to click when Cardozo and Coving- ton moved the ball deep into the Church- men's territory, but the game ended and with it a chance for a Woodberry score. Meeting the High School with three letter men out of the line-up and with the addi- tional loss of Bill Adams on the first play, whose star blocking was a great loss, Wood- berry fought desperately throughout the game but was overcome by a heavier, more experienced team which endured the season undefeated. At the close of the season, a mythical All-State team was chosen on which Wfood- berry placed its Captain, Mosby Cardozo, hard-running back, John Stegeman, glue- Hngered endg and Edgar Boatwright, tackle. C. H. Robinson and Clarke Worthington, two fine guards, were named on the second team.

Then, in the Episcopal High contest he ran so hard, in spite of an ailing ankle, and tackled so recklessly that those who saw him accepted his election on the All-State team at the end of the season as a foregone conclusion. Fearless and fired with energy, Chick,' was an ideal pupil to his coach and an inspiring Captain to his teammates. Much is expected of him in his future college days. 98 C. H. ROBINSON Guard In the estimation of coaches and players alike C H.', was one of the most valuable players on the team and ranks high up among Wood- berry's outstanding linemen of the last decade. His compact body, speed, and low running an- gle made of him an excellent running guard who for the past two seasons led Woodberry backs to many substantial gains. His fine, heady play both at guard and tackle proved the back- bone of the Orange and Black's defense. Mod- esty and reliability round him out into that type of athlete of which any school might justly be proud. Princeton will be lucky to get him next fall. IKE GRAINGER End A reserve flankman on last year's squad, Ike started the 1936 season in grand fashiong his end play was of a high calibre until he was forced to the sidelines in mid-October as the re- sult of a shoulder injury. However, Grainger returned to action in time to play a good brand of football against the gridders of Episcopal High in the season's last conflict. CLARKE WORTHINGTON Guard Clarke was a hard-fighting guard with a great love of football who took much delight in smearing offensive thrusts directed at his side of the line. Coupled with his fine defensive abil- ity, he was a capable blocker of the sock-em and rock-em type. Even though playing under the handicap of an injured ankle, Clarke turned in a fine performance against E. H. S. in his last game for the Tigers. 99 its 00 azz clfzeatll Q45 193 7 J QM EDGAR BOATWRIGHT Tackle Although changing this season from his last year's position of end to a tackle post, Boaty rapidly adapted his crashing type of play to his new assignment. Mid-season found him back- ing the line with an excellence not often attained by prep-school athletes. Probably the greatest asset to his steady brand of ball was his grim determination a n d unconquerable fighting spirit. Near the end of the season a back injury put him on the sidelines for the last few games. BILL ADAMS Back In his first year as a regular on the Orange and Black eleven, Bill proved to be a steady, thoroughly dependable back with great block- ing and tackling ability. Adams' true value to the team was keenly felt in the Episcopal game when he was injured on the opening kick-off. Witli the departure of this sturdy mainstay went a number of Woodberryls chances for victory. Bill's most outstanding play of the season was in the R. M. A. game when he executed a tricky lateral at the end of a long pass to score. JACK HINE Back A member of the Varsity squad for three years, jack in his final season, despite his light weight, was one of the hardest, most deter- mined fighters on the team. However, early in the fall, after making several excellent show- ings, Cass received a serious leg injury which forced him to hang up his uniform for the re- mainder of the year. An ability to dodge, spin, side step, and snag passes were the outstanding points which rounded him into a fine player. --wtf 100 GEORGE WEBSTER Buck Playing his second year on the Varsity, George had the misfortune of dislocating his shoulder in the first game of the season. A main cog in both offense and defense, he had been counted upon heavily as both a blocker and punter. His loss was accordingly a severe blow to the team. After a lay-off of seven weeks he resumed action in the last two games of the season and, with the use of only one arm, gave an excellent account of himself in both contests. BILL MORRIS Tackle Finding someone to hold down one of the tackle posts proved to be the coaches' foremost puzzle last September. But this newcomer from North Carolina was the problem's solution. One of the youngest members of the squad, Bill nevertheless was the biggest and most rugged linesman and was frequently called up- on to play the full 60 minutes of the game. This job he always did creditably and was a stellar performer throughout the season. His return next year will help the team no end. JOHN STEGEMAN End Entering Woodberry last year from the ranks of a championship high school team, john lost little time in manifesting his superior abilities at the wing position. Possessing an uncanny coolness and sense of play as well as matchless skill for blocking and tackling, he was one of the team's mainstays. His action on the re- ceiving end of passes saved the day on numer- ous occasions, and no player better deserved the All-State honor bestowed on him at the season's end. 101 Ee-- 06Z!6ZZ 016.4 QA lQ37Cy QW HARRISS Cov1NGToN Back Possessing all the qualities of an outstanding back, Harriss achieved a feat seldom accom- plished by rising from the obscurity of the Mid- gets to a first string position in one year. A passer of unerring accuracy, a speedy and elu- sive broken field runner, he helped the team out of many tight spots. Although being one of the smallest members of the squad, he passed through the season uninjured and turned in a stellar brand of ball on all occasions. GEORGE ADAMS Emi This year was George's first on the team, and early in the season he showed that he well deserved his place on the Varsity. Playing one of the most diHf1cult positions on the team, Adams soon proved that he was one of the team's best defensive men. With two more years ahead of him, George is expected to be- come one of the finest ends in Woodberry's history. BILLY ARCHER Back Archer proved to be one of the most con- sistent ground-gainers on the team. Once past the line of scrimmage his size was no handicap and he was indeed difificult to stop. However, Bill was more than a speedy and shifty ball- carrier. He was a splendid all-round player both on offense and defense. His blocking and tackling were invaluable to the team and could always be depended upon in a tight place. A consistent and heady player, Archer's speed and shiftiness, as well as his vicious tackles, were always an asset to the team. 102 CLIFTON Ckoss Ccnfer Criss came to the Woodberry eleven at a very opportune time with the job of filling the position vacated by Roscoe Willett, one of the best centers ever to play for the Tigers. His ability to pass and block, coupled with his Hghting spirit, molded him into a well-rounded ball player. Although hampered part of the season by a pair of bad knees, Clifton was in the thick of every scrap. TOMMY JOHNSON Back Beginning the season as an unnoticed third- string back, Tommy was given no chance to play until two regulars were injured, and from then on he developed so fast that by the term's end he was one of the most dependable men on the squad. Hard work and determination played an important part in his rise to Varsity heights. Possessed with a natural fighting spirit along with football ability, Tommy would be an asset to any team. GEORGE RICHMOND Center From Junior to Varsity Football is a long jump but Richmond proved that it was not im- possible. Perhaps the hardest worker on the squad, Pete showed marked improvement from last yearg and despite his 130 pounds, he devel- oped into a capable, aggressive center. Alert and quick, he possessed a genuine love for the game and played his best when the going was tough- est. 103 0Jg6ZZ 006.4 QA fQ37J QW JOE DYER Tackle Although never a real lover of the game, the Duke, with his good natured, carefree attitude filled a tackle position very efficiently and was always a hard man to stop. Through- out the season he showed himself an aggres- sive, driving linesman who consistently per- formed well, enabling the backs to gain much ground. In joe's last appearance for Wood- berry against E. H. S. he turned in a good game and fought doggedly until the Hnal whistle. D ck I 1 er, ML'L:1ughlin, Frost.

Be- sides being Varsity Manager of Wr'estlir1g and Baseball, this rotund Texan acted as general assistant to Mr. Dick on all occa- sions. This year he was an assistant in Foot- ball and Track, while in addition he aided Coach Frost and the Basketeers during the early part of the season. In case Fred returns next year he will probably be Varsity Man- ager in every sport! Mid-winter found a vacancy in the posi- tion of Basketball Manager which was ably filled by Jack Hine, Captain of the 1936 quintet. Being a letterman in this sport for two years, his experience and knowledge were invaluable to the coaches. It was hoped that Jack would be able to play, but a leg injury suffered in football prevented his participating. Winston Taylor managed the Varsity Football team of 1936 with Sam Means as his assistant. Together they turned in a creditable job although it was Means, first year on the staff, while Taylor had had only one year's experience. The Track Team was managed by Bill Boggs, who, after a year's experience as an assistant, rendered the coaches invaluable aid. All together these boys did their job well and comprised as good a staff as has been seen at Wootlberry in several years. --eff 105 AQ!! Zta 1937 Cl QW Buick frm-Slxort, NlcCornmc. Taylor, Aludkins.

With such men as Captain John Stegeman, George Webster, and Dick Wiltshire, new recruit, the Woodberry Forest basketball team possessed the brightest prospects for several years for an excellent season. Last year's Captain, jack Hine, due to an in- jury, was unable to report for practice this season. This presented the only dark spot. However, as the campaign wore on Wood- berry found itself turned back six times while gaining ten victories, to chalk up a very creditable season. In the four games played against Staunton and the Virginia Freshmen the Tiger cagers were definitely outclassed. The other defeat occurred in Richmond at the hands of St. Christopher's quintet early in the season. In the remaining contests of the year the Orange and Black five displayed some excellent spurts of basketball, rising to its greatest heights in defeating 'the capable liorli Union team in a well-played, thrilling game. On January 6, the Woodberry Forest quintet began its season with a decisive victory over Young Menis Shop of Char- lottesville by a score of 42-12. The ac- curate shooting of Captain John Stegeman and Dick Wfiltshire-two Tiger forwards- was mainly responsible for the forty-two points racked up by Woodberry. Good de- fensive play on the part of the Forestmen held the visitors to five field goals and two foul shots. Although many substitutes saw action Woodberry scored strongly through- out the encounter and was never in danger of being overtaken. Woodberry journeyed to Richmond for the first of two games with St. Christopher 108 l 1 I v Li. where they competed on January 9 in the Prep School Day Carnival. The Woodber- rians were turned back by a narrow mar- gin, 37-34, in a game marred by frequent fouling, by which means the Saints over- came the visitors, early lead and gained the supremacy. Virginia Freshmen swept a two-game series from the Tiger cagers, clearly showing their supremacy in both contests. The first game, which was a one-sided affair, the Freshman team easily took, 35-15. The shooting of Feldman featured for the Uni- versity, while Woodberqf played unevent- fully throughout. The yearlings chalked up an early lead which the home team never challenged. The hand of Fate played its part at the second meeting of the two rivals, for Woodberry was forced to play without the services of Captain John Stegeman and George Webster, both of them out due to injury. When the final whistle blew, the visiting Forestmen found themselves downed 37-25 after leading the home team in the early stages of the contest. Coe, freshman center, and Wiltshire, Woodberry forward, led the scoring with thirteen points each. The Forest cagers met with two defeats at the hands of Staunton Military Academy. The first loss occurred on January 23 in a hard-fought game marked by the accurate shooting of Captain Stegeman of the home team and Matuza of the Cadets. The visitors enjoyed a 21-point lead at the close of the third period, but the scrappy Orange cagers proceeded to ring up 17 points in rapid suc- cession, thereby moving into a threatening position. The attack was at length staved off and the final score stood 47-38 in favor of the Cadets. In the second game with S. M. A. on February 20, the visiting Tigers were the victims of a crushing defeat. The 109 Staunton boys scored their 54 points at will while the Tigers could garner but 16 points. Scoring heavily in the first and fourth quarters, the Woodberry Forest quintet van- quished Fishburne Military School, 51-21, on january 27 in the first of two games. The Orange five surged to an early lead with 19 points in the first framer and were never neared throughout the remainder of the affair. The second game on February 5, which Woodberry won in an overtime period, 41-40, proved the thriller of the series. The game was hard-fought and marked by many fouls which ultimately took four regulars from the Woodberry line-up. The outcome was somewhat in doubt until Ed Lucas swished the winning basket. On January 28 Woodberry defeated Lane High School of Charlottesville, 33-4. Deane, of the visitors, rang up a goal in the first half while Barnes got another in the third quarter to comprise the visitors' only scores. Captain Stegeman was high scorer with nine points. In a close game played at Front Royal, Va., on january 30, the Tigermen set down Randolph-Macon Academy, 24 to 22, after trailing the home team by six points at the half. A rally late in the final period enabled Woodberry to snatch the victory from the hard-fighting Cadets. The two teams met again on February 17, but this time R. M. A. was no match for the Forest quin- OOJAZZZ 0'C6.4f QL: X937 cle Que tet and was bested, 35-20, after outscoring the home team throughout the last half. Wiltshire featured the scoring with a total of fourteen points. On February 1 the Woodberry courtmen won their fifth game of the season, suppress- ing Landon Prep of Washington, S1-22. Led by Wiltshire, high scorer of the game, the home team took an early lead and continued to outscore the visitors until the Hnal whistle. Rising to top form in both offensive and defensive play, the Woodberry five con- quered Fork Union Military Academy, 35-32, in a very well-played game. Only once after Dick Wiltshire and Captain Stegeman, who swished nineteen points, had led the winners to a flying start were the quintets separated by more than four points. Although handicapped by the absence of two first string players, the Tigers managed to defeat Virginia Episcopal, 29-19, on Feb- ruary 13. The home team got off to a slow start but the accurate shooting of Cardozo and flashy defensive work of Covington enabled the Orange and Black basketeers to take the lead at the half from whence they were never in danger. Because the last scheduled game of the season with Episcopal High, traditional rivals from Alexandria, was necessarily called off, the Tiger quintet closed the season on February 24 by defeating St. Christopher by the score of 34-29 to avenge its previous loss to the Richmonders. The losers jumped to an early lead but soon were overtaken on field goals by Cardozo and Wiltshire. In the closing minutes of play the Saints made their serious threat, but the Tigermen showed their supremacy and held to the slim lead to gain victory and draw the curtains on a successful court campaign.

His unerring accuracy from the floor and in the pivot post was responsible for a great portion of the offense during two years. Winning All-State honors and leading the Tigers through a successful season with his Hne play, it is with regret that We see Long John hang up his togs. Next year he will probably be setting the pace as he did against Fork Union or saving another game, as he did the R. M. A. encounter, for the University of Georgia. U1 9'5 awdeze azeaf I QL 193 7 CAE QW GEORGE WEBSTER Ce11fe1' Completing his second year of basketball at Woodberry Forest, George has turned in a splendid job at center. Many times he has con- trolled the ball on the tip against taller op- ponents and his ability to get into the air around the basket was an asset on both offense and defense. With the ever present threat of the recurrence of an old shoulder injury, George gets a great deal of credit for his fine play throughout the season. MOSBY CARDOZO Guard Mose was the old wheel-horse around the opponents' basket and his terrific efforts usually brought him the ball. In game after game his rugged play in the close Contact under the basket was outstanding. Last year, his first of varsity play, he was excellent on defense but mediocre on offense, but this year he sharpened up his eye for the basket and his long range firing was especially effective in the V. E. S. game. Virginia gets a hard fighter and a fine boy next year where great things are predicted for him. --will 112 DICK WIILTSI man liorzuard Dick was the new member of the team. Com- ing to us with a hne record from Thomas -lef- ferson High School in Richmond, he ITlO1'C than lived up to advance notices of his ability as a basketball player. Together with Captain Stege- man, Dick was the other offensive big gun, and his southpaw flinging was a thing of beauty. He fitted in from the start and came right along as the season progressed, hitting the cords for sixteen points against his fellow townsmen from St. Christopher in the final game. He was made Captain of the All-State team at the end of the season. Haruuss COVINGTON G1lHl'l! After subbing last year, Harriss proved to be one of the important cogs in the 1937 team. Game after game he got the better of his op- ponents by his sure and lightning-fast move- ments. It was a pleasure to watch him in ac- tion because of his natural grace and swift footwork. Although small in stature, his smoothness and ability in passing make up for this, and the student body is eagerly looking forward to seeing him in action again next year. He was awarded a position on the All- State team at the season's end for his consist- ently outstanding performance.

Coach Covington and the 1937 Wood- berry wrestling team boasted a very suc- cessful season, turning back four teams while being turned back but twice. Having defeated all Virginia Prep,' School teams, the Grapplers won the unoihcial state cham- pionship. The team had but three returning veterans, Captain Archer, Jimmy Wfalker, and Jack Castles, but this deficiency was made up for principally by the addition of such new material as Parker, and George. It was in the heavy weights, with Bill Van Clief unable to compete, that Woodberry evidenced inexperience though by no means a lack of determination and Hght. Opening the season away from home on January 23 against Augusta Military Academy, the Woodberry matmen displayed excellent form to gain their first victory. The Tigers scored 19 points while A. M. A. could gain but 15. Although the Cadets took the last three bouts by falls, they were unable to overtake a Woodbe1'ry lead com- prised of three time advantages and two falls in the first five bouts. Parker showed much promise by pinning Bozarth in the 145 pound class, while the veteran Wallcer scored the other fall by flattening Acosta in a little under 6 minutes. Castles, Captain Archer, and George in the 115, 135, and 155 pound classes respectively, accounted for the other nine points. Qn January 30 McDonough School of Baltimore bested the Tiger wrestling team, 28-3, in the latter's first home appearance. Castles in the 115 pound class scored the home team's lone victory when he deci- sioned Russell of the visitors. The matches in the 125, 145, and 155 pound classes proved to be the thrillers of the afternoon, 116 with McDonough coming out a shade ahead in each case. Hever of Baltimore did a nice bit of work in averting a fall at the hands of George and then winning a time advan- tage of a minute and a half. Taking the last four matches in a row the Washington and Lee Freshman wrestlers overcame an early Woodberry lead to win the victory, 21y2-QVZ. Castles and Parker turned in the only Tiger decisions with a fall for Parker and a time advantage for Castles. Walker wrestled Braum of the visitors to a tie in the 125 pound match. By dint of three time decisions, a fall, and a forfeit, the Foresters defeated Norfolk Y. M. C. A. on February 13, 19-11. Parker of Woodberry collected his third fall of the season by pinning Leahy in two minutes. In the opener Castles, undefeated Tiger, chalked up another victory with a time ad- vantage, while Walker and Lewis in the 125 and 165 classes both overcame their op- ponents in a similar fashion. A forfeit in the 175 class accounted for the remaining score. On February 20 the Orange and Black matmen journeyed to Baltimore where they defeated Severn School, 21-14. Two for- feits, a quick pin by George, and time ad- vantages by Captain Archer and Lewis, constituted the Tiger scores. George and Lewis showed exceptionally fine form in this meet. In its final encounter of the season the Wfoodberry wrestling team defeated Fish- burne Military School, 31-5, on February 27. By this victory the Tiger matmen climaxed a clean sweep of all other state prep', school wrestling teams to gain a state championship. The Orange and Black grapplers displayed their superiority by al- lowing the visitors but one victory, which occurred in the 155 pound class when Gregory pinned George of the home team. Jack Castles, skillful Woodberry grappler, threw Ray in the 115 pound class to estab- lish an undefeated campaign. The thriller of the afternoon came when Lewis of the Other victors for Woodberry were Tillett in the home team pinned Boltz in 0:10. in the 125 pound class, Captain Archer 135, Parker in the 145, Hill in the 175, and Morris in the unlimited class, the Hrst three winning of falls. In this final meet David Smith, Tommy Johnson, and Brent Warren won exhibition matches on quick falls.

Aided greatly by his last year's experience, jack did a good job by starting the Tigers off in every match with a victory. Against keen opposition, his record of six wins and no losses shows how well he deserves the Captaincy of the 1958 team. CHARLES TIl.LI'1TT 125 Pfmmfs Kept in the background by sterling opposition among his own men, Charlie did not get into the competition until late in the season. Then he acquitted himself exceptionally well in the hnal matches of the 125 pound class. One of the greatest fighters to be found, his determination was a pleasure to see. Next year should iind him at his best. jmm' XYIALKER 125 Pozmilx Although ,Iimmy's chief asset was his strength, he also had at his command a large variety of holds which served him in good stead on all occasions.

For a first year man, joel N an accomplished performer. His tireless etforts and desire to learn made him the most improved man on the squad.

He so improved before the season's end that he was a really fine wrestler. A hard worker, it was a pleasure to watch him improve. LAWRENCE LEWIS 165 Pounds Coming out for the team late in the season, Lawrence filled a gap in the 165 class in an admirable manner. Although a light man for his opponents, he rounded into a capable wrestler and overcame all opposition. His specialty was the head and arm hold with which he threw a man in 10 seconds to win the state record for a quick fall. ROWLAND HILL 175 P0u1zJs A diligent worker, the first man out for practice and the last man to leave, Rowland gave a very creditable performance throughout the season. Everyone is looking forward to having him back for two more years, and his willingness to work plus his courage can only lead him to greater success in the future. BILL MORRIS U11Ii117ifC'fl In one year of wrestling Bill gradually advanced from the novice class to the ranks of good grapplers, and he proved to be more and more of a threat as the season wore away.

This group of eight boys, consisting of Tillecr, Larned, Hall, Scott, Brent Warren, Bott, Chatham, and Efird, downed all opponents, including military schools, and was triumphant on two occasions against a men's team from Culpeper. Charles Tilletr, President of the club, led his mates on all occasions and established a club record of 378 points out of a possible 400. At the end of the season he won the medal awarded by the Ath- letic Association for the highest score in indoor small-bore shooting. The team shot two matches against the Nehi Rifle Club from Culpeper and was victorious on both occasions. In the first encounter Woodberry won only by means of its handicap, which was awarded due to the other group's greater experience and age. However, the Forestmen won the sec- ond encounter by a margin of eleven pointsg the latter match took place much later in the season, and the Wfoodberrians showed marked improvement over the former en- gagement and bested their other score by eighty-three points. The next match scheduled was with Fork Union Military Academy, and again the Orange and Black won by a decisive mar- gin, this time by 34 points. The Cadets asked for a return match which took place at Woodberry on February 22. Fate seemed to be against the home team until perfect prone shooting by Tillerr and Hall pulled the others into the lead and enabled them to win by 26 points. At this meeting the Forestmen made the highest score that they had up to that point of the season, 1734 out of a possible 2000. On February 20 Woodberry shot against and easily overcame last year's State Cham- pions, Fishburne Military School. Led by Buford Hall and without the aid of Tillett, the team won by a margin of 77 points, its most overwhelming victory of the season. Coach Rogers accepted a challenge to a return match and on March 6 the team again bested the Cadets, although Fishburne bettered any record that Woodberry had made until that date. By means of almost perfect shooting by all the members the team established a new record for itself of 1794. The opponents also shot well and would have beaten the Tigers had not the latter excelled their highest score up to this point in the season. Having won all its matches, Woodberry laid claim to the unofficial State champion- ship. With the prospect of five boys re- turning next year, hopes for a successful season are high. 1 22 7146! Q46 1937 Je QW 1 CAPTAIN GIBBONS CORBETT Truck Effortless in his every movement and possessed with amazing coordination, this curly headed Texan ranks high among trackmen who have attended Woodberry. Three years ago Gibbons burst into the limelight as a hurdler, broad-jumper, and pole vaulter. That year he climaxed a successful season by winning the low hurdles against Episcopal High School in the annual meet between the two big rivals. His time was 26 seconds, un- usually good when one considers he was only a shade over fourteen years old. That same year he also put the shot about 40 feet, broad jumped over 20 feet, and vaulted well over 10 feet! Last year a bad pair of Shins limited his activity to vaulting and broad-jumping, This season should find him at his best, and, barring accidents, he will be one of the highest scoring trackmen in the state. -..ggi 124 PROSPECTS FOR 1937 Although there are no other returning lettermen besides Captain Corbett and Al- ternate-Captain Webster, many boys from last year's squad have shown so much im- provement that they are almost sure of reg- ular berths this season. Branch, in par- ticular, has proved himself a capable run- ner and will be heavily counted on in the half mile. Kidder, Ricks, and Hole have already made such good time in the quarter, half, and mile, respectively, that there should be no lack of distance men this year. Thurmond Clements, a new boy, shows much promise in the dashes and will probably develop into an excellent sprinter during the spring. With such material as this, Mr. Dick and Mr. Mercer are sure to mold an outstanding team. 12 5' Exe-- GEORGE WEBSTER H urdlcs A versatile athlete, George could have done well in any event but wisely concen- trated his efforts on hurdling and high- jumping. Running the high hurdles in six- teen seconds and stepping the lows in under twenty-six, Webster proved himself one of the most consistent point-winners on the team. He also did well in the high jump and when necessary was always on hand to run the dashes. This year George should go far, not only in the hurdles, but in the dashes and high-jump where he has already shown much improvement. He will be counted upon heavily to win many points in 1937.

TRACK TEAM OF 1936 Under the coaching of Mr. Dick and Mr. Mercer, the track team of 1936 proved to be one of high calibre. The work of such stars as Frank Fuller, George Webster, Cap- tain Carhart, and Gibbons Corbett, captain- elect of the 1937 squad, enabled Wood- berry to boast a track record of five vic- tories out of six dual and triangular meets, besides showing up well in the C Club meet and placing second in the State Pre- paratory school championship. It was Fuller who proved to be the sensation of the year when he bettered two State uprepi' school records in the high and low hurdles. Unde- feated in two-way and three-way prep school meets, Woodberry was out-pointed early in the season by Newport News High School. However, this defeat was offset when the Tiger trackmen reached top form to set back the St. Christopher team on April 29 near the close of the season. Cn February 26, the Forest indoor track team went to Charlottesville to nose out Virginia Freshmen 415 to 39 M. Wood- berry competed without the services of sev- eral tentative stars, absent because of their activities in other Winter athletics. Frank Fuller of the Orange and Black shared high scoring honors with Peter Nistad of Vir- ginia with 13 points, the former by win- ning both the high and low hurdles in good time, and taking second in the fifty yard dash. It was on April 8 that Woodberry opened the Spring track campaign in a triangular meet held on Hanes Field against Fork Union Military Academy and Fishburne -MQW 126 Military School. Scoring 62 points, the Tigers-defeated the two visitors by a com- fortable margin. Fork Union gained sec- ond with 42 points and Fishburne trailed with 34. On the high jump Hooker, Web- ster, McLellan, and Horner swept 11 points from the opposition. Captain David Carhart led the Woodberry scoring with 11 points while Monroe Emerick of Fishburne cap- tured top scoring honors for the meet, plac- ing Hrst in the high and low hurdles, the century, and the furlong for a total of 20 points. The home team took only four first places, but easily made up this deficiency with 10 seconds and several thirds and fourths. Fishburne led in firsts with live to its credit. Scoring clean sweeps in the mile and half- mile the Newport News High School track team on April 11 outpointed Woodberry 70 to 47 on Hanes Field. Although the High School team proved too strong for the Tiger trackmen, the running time for neither of the teams was exceptional due to a strong wind and a very heavy track. Fuller and Webster of the home team were impressive in the low and high hurdles, placing first and second, respectively, in both events. In the field events, Woodberry also did especially well, scoring firsts in the Pole Vault, Shot Put, and Discus. Dodd of Newport News was high scorer with three firsts and one second for a total of 18 points, while Frank Fuller of Woodberry scored 11 points to take second honors. On April 17, Virginia Freshmen encoun- tered the Tiger trackmen for the second time in 1936 in a vain effort to avenge its previous defeat. Competing under adverse weather conditions which acted as a hin- drance to both teams, Woodberry made its two straight victories over Virginia as it piled up 67 points to the Caveliers 50. As 127 was representative of the entire season, Woodberry was out-scored in flrsts, gain- ing six while the Freshmen netted seven. However, the home team remained out in front throughout the meet by dint of heavy scoring in seconds and thirds. Placing sec- ond in four events for a total of 12 points, George Webster took high scoring honors away from Frank Fuller, also of Wood- berry, and Billy Hopkins of the freshmen, who scored eleven and ten points, respec- tively. With the lead changing hands four times during the course of events, the Woodberry Forest track team on April 25 finally amassed ssu, points to emerge victorious over two visiting teams, Staunton and Vir- ginia Episcopal. The former scored 47 points while the latter collected 40M points. The meet was virtually clinched in the next to the last event when George Webster and Frank Fuller finished first and second, respectively, in the low hurdles. The high scorer was Charles Wadsworth, of Staunton, who turned in a nice perform- ance to win the 100, 200, and the broad jump. Webster, of Woodberry, took second place with 102, points, gained through a first and second in the high and low hurdles, and a four-way tie for first in the high jump. Woodberry won its last home meet of the season on April 29, defeating St. Chris- topher's School of Richmond, 71-46. Frank wafdezz azeaf 246 1937 Cl QW Fuller of the Tigers surpassed two State records in the hurdle events, winning the highs in 15.9 seconds and the lows in 25.3 seconds. His teammate, George Webster, finished second in both, losing the lows by a matter of inches. With Captain Carhart taking the 440 and 220, and with Ricks and Hole winning the 880 and mile, re- spectively. Woodberry piled up a big ad- vantage in the running events. However, this lead of 29 points was slightly whittled down by the Saints who took the field events from the Tigermen by a margin of four points, winning the pole vault, high jump, shot put, and javelin. Woodberry was forced to be contented with seconds and thirds in these events. Fuller paced his mates with 13 points, while Woodward of the Saints led the meet with 16 points col- lected in the field events. On May 2, Woodberry trackmen jour- neyed to Charlottesville to compete in ex- ceedingly fast company for the Annual State Preparatory School Track Championships. By timely scoring throughout the afternoon, Woodberry and Staunton Military Academy were dead-locked with only two remaining events, but when Wadsworth won the broad jump, the final score stood: Staun- ton, 37 points, Woodberry Forest, 35, Fork Union, 30. Fuller, of the Orange and Black, set a new official state record in the high hurdles, taking the timbers at a 16 second clip. Woodberry, weak in the weights, scored but one point in the shot- put and javelin. Wadsworth, of the victors, led the scoring with 15 points, gaining a new state record in the 220 yard dash. On May 9, in a post-season encounter, the C Club meet, Fuller and Webster scored second and third, respectively, in both hurdle events for a total of ten points. Woodberry had but three participants in this meet, which was won by Episcopal High School. The annual meet between Woodberry Forest and its age-old rival, Episcopal High School, had to be called off because of an epidemic of scarlet fever and a con- sequential quarantine of the latter's student body. At the close of the season, the G. A. A. awarded letters to the following for their untiring work in track: Captain David Carhart, Frank Fuller, George Webster, Gibbons Corbett, Peter Seyffert, Lawson Turner, Bill Bennett, West Hooker, and Donald McLellan.

REVIEW OF THE 1956 TENNIS SEASON Woodberry's 1936 edition of the tennis team was composed of two veterans, Captain Dan Payne and Sydney Combs, and three newcomers to tennis-Billy Archer, Rich Preyer, and Louis Sutton. This team experienced only a mediocre season, losing five contests and winning only two matches played in the state. In the opening match the Tigers were defeated by the strong Virginia Freshmen racquet wield- ers, 7-O. On the following week-end they were again shut out by the team from Western High School in Washington. However, Tigermen are not to be downed easily, and in the next fray they won a decisive victory over Fork Union Military Academy, 6-1. Dan Payne was the sole loser in this encounter and was bested after three hard fought sets. Woodberry hit its stride in the next con- test and vanquished Staunton Military Academy. 7-0. Every member of the team gave an excellent account of himself, especially Payne, who took the Cadets' number one with the loss of only three games. The fifth match was lost to a much superior team from North Carolina Freshmen in straight sets. In its final High and had a its opponents to The annual condition of the encounter Woodberry journeyed to Washington for a return match with Western much more creditable showing on this occasion, winning two matches and taking three sets in each encounter. encounter with Episcopal High School was cancelled due to bad weather and the courts. With the return of Captain-Elect Preyer and Billy Archer, the 1937 team stands a good chance for a successful season.

Qfte X937 Je Que CAPTAIN JACK I-IINE Short-Stop Brought up on a steady diet of baseball in the Wilds of his adopted home at Tuinicu, Cuba, Captain jack Hine has become one of the greatest short-stops in Woodberry's baseball history. For three years his lightning stops, deadly throws, and general team- work have featured in three fine Tiger infields. Although he started as a Weak hitter, Jack has improved so much that he is now one of the Foresters' best stickmen. Enthusiastic, energetic, and a natural leader, this boy has been a definite success here and will no doubt go places on some college diamond. -.t.,2.f 1 3 2 I l i MOSBY CARDOZO Cenfcr-Field Playing his second year of varsity baseball, Mosby showed again a steady and depend- able type of play at center field. His great knowledge of the game and cool reasoning combined to make him the smartest player on the team. Chick was a very efhcient hitter and as good a lead-off man as any coach could want, for he clouted the ball with the leading batters all season. He went into a hit- ting slump toward the end of the year but recovered in time to bat almost perfectly for the last few games. EDGAR BOATWRIGHT Right-Fielzf Edgar was probably the longest hitter on the Orange and Black team. For a large part of the campaign he hit in the clean-up posi- tion but went into a slump toward the close and slipped down a few notches. Although never quite able to hit his top stride, the Rox- boro boy was a deadly fielder throughout the season with an accurate peg and powerful stick. Much is expected from him this season, and he should be one of the nine's best players. BILL ADAMS First Base In his first year as a varsity regular, Bill stepped in, took over the first base position, and performed like a big-leaguer during the entire season. His hitting and fielding ability added a lot of snap and power to the team, and at all times he played a heady brand of ball, whether at bat, running bases, or in the field. It can be said that Bill will be one of the team's mainstays this spring, and it is con- fidently predicted that he will continue to show his ever-present enthusiasm, just as he has in the past. 133 00 UCI Cltedf QA fQ37J QM IKE GRAINGER Le f 15 Field Ike was another one of those boys who broke into the first string lineup in one year. He held down left field like a veteran and also proved to be a heavy hitter, inasmuch as he led the team in batting for half the season. Although he went into a slump toward the end of the year, he still remained a menace to opposing pitchers. Much is expected from Ike this season, and he is sure to come through creditably. HARRISS COVINGTON Second Base Harriss quite efficiently fills a large place in school athletics. He was also another baseball rookie who performed his duties with ex- traordinary ease and alertness. At bat he was always a man to be feared and around the key- stone sack his coolness enabled him to make the most diflicult plays appear easy. Everyone is expecting Harriss to rise to great heights in the next few years of varsity ball that he has yet to play. ED LUCAS Pitcher As a newcomer to the baseball squad, Ed developed into a capable pitcher before the season's end. Besides his pitching ability Ed also swung a powerful bat. He had the highest batting average on the team which is very un- usual for a twirler. He pitched his best game against Fork Union only to lose by the heart- breaking score of 3-2. With a year's experienct behind him Ed ought to rank among the state's best young pitchers during the coming spring. -...-,gf 134 Back row-I'attoii, Henderson.

Mugzoun, Johnson JUNIOR BASEBALL 1956 The Junior baseball team of 1936 was coached both by Mr. McLaughlin and Mr. Lord, while Coddington, third baseman, acted as captain. As usual the juniors had only two games but made up for this deficiency by forming two teams and playing games among themselves. They also had a practice game with the Varsity at mid-season and were bested, 7-2. Under the guidance of Mr. McLaughlin the juniors played Orange High School to a tie, 10-10. This was caused by the lateness of the hour which forced the coaches to call the game without extra innings. Middleton and Scott did the twirling for Woodberry, showing excellent form, although one bad inning gave Orange a lead that the Tigers could not quite surpass. The season's climax was reached on May 27th when the juniors were nosed out in the ninth inning by the E. H. S. scrubs, 11-9. Ed Middleton hurled seven innings of faultless ball and! had established a comfortable lead, 9-6, when he was relieved by Scott. A hit in the eighth inning resulted in an Episcopal score which made the score 9-7 at the beginning of the ninth. A walk and an error, combined with an overthrow to first, filled the bases. The next batter hit a hard grounder to Coddington who muffed it due to a bad bounce. Two men scored which weakened Scott's control so much that he allowed two more runs before the side was retired. It was a hard game to lose, for the Tigers led until the disastrous ninth and showed 21 snappy brand of baseball. '35 oaofdezz azeaf Q46 1937 Cla 7366 gui'-N An. 1. Bark mire-johnson, G.

Although the team, coached for the first time by Mr. H. S. Covington, won fewer games than it lost it was outclassed in only two. Wfoodberry, with Captain C. J. Hine at third base and Jack Hine, the '37 captain, at short-stop, matched any prep school team in the state in Fielding. Like- wise with such sluggers as jack and C. J. Hine, and Bill Adams, the Tigers were always a serious threat while at bat. It was in the game against the stellar Fork Union team that Wloodberry reached its peak for the season only to be narrow- ly defeated after two extra innings, 4-3. In the opening game of the season on April 11. Wfoodberry, playing at home, turned back the Virginia Episcopal team, 8 to 6. The victory gave the home team a split for the year with V. E. S., as in the second encounter on May 9th, Virginia Episcopal emerged victorious by a score of 9-8, after trailing by five runs going into the last half of the ninth inning, In the first game Dodge of Wfoodberry struck out 12 V. E. S. batters to pitch fine ball behind good support. On April 13th the Wfoodberry nine played host to the slugging Fredericksburg High School team. The visitors with their ace hurler, Hefiin, were too much for Wfoodberry and vanquished them, 12-5. The home team started out with a first inning lead of two runs, while Fredericksburg was held scoreless for the first three frames, but by pushing over six runs in the sixth, the visitors clinched the victory. The Wfoodberry nine met the St. Christopher team twice, winning the Hrst game, 7-3, at home and losing the second at Richmond, 5-O. In the -A--it 13 6 hrst game the Saints could garner only three safe- ties from the offerings of Dodge, who got of? to a rather shaky start by allowing two runs in the first frame. However, in the return game Wcmod- berry's batters were paralyzed by the slants of Hutchinson and failed to score, though they con- nected for tive safeties. In a slug-fest featured by 19 errors, the Tigers downed a strong Staunton Military Academy team on the home diamond April 18th by a score of 14-11. The Cadets batted around in the sixth in- ning to shove over five runs, thus tying the score. However, Wfoodberry scored seven runs in the eighth by taking advantage of three errors, three walks, and three hits to sew up the ball game. The home team touched three Staunton twirlers for a total of thirteen hits. On April 22, the Virginia Freshmen drubbed the Forest nine, 16-0, touching freely offerings of two Wimodberry pitchers. Sargent's two triples with one man on base each time and his home run with two men on featured the Cavaliers' onslaught. The visitors jumped to an early lead in the one- sided fray, crossing the plate four times in the first frame, while Wloodberry was never able to adapt itself to the pitching of Ashby and Preston of the University. Wfoodberry swept a two-game series with St. Albans of Washingtimn, playing one on April 25th and one on May 8th, The Tiger nine took the first encounter 10-9 behind Pitcher Dodge who struck out 18 men and walked 14. Grainger, W'oodberry fielder, led the batting with three hits for tive efforts. The Forestmen scored five runs in the first inning to capture the second contest 7-2 from an erratic St. Albans club. In a well played game the McGuires School of Richmond defeated Vfoodberry upon the latter's home field on April 28th. Capitalizing on two hits, two walks and as many errors, the visitors pushed over five runs in the second inning to ac- quire a lead which the locals could not over- come. The Tigers made their bid for supremacy 137 in the eighth and ninth innings, scoring four runs on the timely hitting of Grainger, Covington and Bill Adams. Dodge, Lucas, and Papy formed the battery for the home team, while Herndon and Garian twirled for McGuire. With Hennis scoring from third on a Hy, fol- lowed by an overthrow to Catcher Papy, Fork Union broke 21 3-3 tie in the ninth inning to de- feat Vloodberry Forest on April 30, 4-3, in the best and most thrilling game of the season. The game was scheduled for seven innings, but the deadlock necessitated the extension. The visitors Collected eight hits off the offerings of Lucas, while Woodberry lined out six singles off two Cadet twirlers. A clean single by Hunter in the ninth inning scored Boatwright from third to give Wfoodberry a last minute victory over Fishburne Military School on May 5. Going into the last inning the Cadets were four runs ahead, but Hve hits by the locals coupled with two errors combined to change the standing. The Wfoodberry nine collected 13 safeties from Cox of the visitors, four of which were by Captain C. J. Hine, the winning pitcher. 0014621 0164i Couch Covington QQ X937 cle Que Woodberry Forest was defeated by the Shenan- doah Valley Academy baseball team on Monday, May 11, by a score of 8-4. The fifth inning proved to be a fatal one for the home team when the vis- itors crossed the plate five times. With the ex- ception of this frame Pitcher Lucas hurled steady ball behind excellent fielding support, especially on the part of jack Hine who made several sen- sational stops of ground balls. Captain C. J. Hine led his mates with four hits for five trips to the plate. On May 13, at home, Woodberry Forest crushed Randolph-Macon Academy, 18-7, scoring 16 runs in the first two innings. From the third inning on when Middleton replaced Dodge in order that the latter might rest for the coming Episcopal game, the visitors outscored the home team by three runs on four hits. Jack Hine led the local batters with four singles in hve trips to the plate. Randolph- Macon collected only four hits to Woodberry's 11. On May 16, the Episcopal High School nine journeyed to Woodberry Forest to capture a game by the score of 7-2 before a large crowd of spec- tators. The Forestmen suffered defeat due mainly to an off day at the plate where they were unable to connect with the steady pitching of Polland, who gave up only four hits and fanned eight bat- ters. The visitors collected 11 hits in the first three innings, though only two in the other frames. Wrxodberry tightened up at this point and held the Alexandrians scoreless until the end of the game. Lucas, Dodge, and Papy made up the bat- tery for the home team. Polland and Harmon formed the winning combination for E. H. S. The result of the final game of the season came as a bitter disappointment to the Tigers. Ed Lucas led the team in batting for the season, clouting at a .400 clip. Captain C. j. Hine was second with .376. At the season's close letters were awarded to the following: Captain C. J. Hine, jack Hine, Harriss Covington, Bill Adams, Hugh Papy, Ed Lucas, George Dodge, Grey Hun- ter, Mosby Cardozo, Ike Grainger, and Edgar Boatwright.

REVIEW OE 1936 GOLF SEASON With but one returning veteran, Frank Evans, the Golf team of 1936 was molded largely from new aspirants who were hard pressed to fill the shoes left vacant by such former stars as Dick Payne and Walter Cushman. The team went through a mediocre season, gaining three victories while los- ing five times, twice at the hands of the par-cracking Thomas Jefferson High School clubbers. The Tiger golfers opened the season on the tricky Petersburg layout against Petersburg High School. The latter team staged a late rally to win, 9M-SM. However, in the return encounter, played on the home course, the Woodberrians, driven by Bott and Gravely, stroked their way to a decisive win. By far the most thrilling set of matches were played when Woodberry met Newport News High School and was finally defeated on its own links after consistently stroking the pellet for eighteen holes. A sizzling 31 on the back nine by Sterling of Newport News proved the margin of victory for his team. The Orange and Black team, led by Bott, Gravely, and Harkness, displayed excellent form in the closing matches of the year by decisively out-stroking Western High School of Washington and the South Boston team to put the cap on the 1936 golfing season. 139 awaezz 0'-ceaf 2.746 1937 cl QW ir' . ,W ,i ii. if 140 Mi.4C6!XdlfL60lfLA QQ 1937 :Zz Que REVUE OF FINALS, 1956 Beginning with an afternoon of golf and swimming for visitors and students alike, the final week-end of the 1936 session fell nothing short of such former occasions. A fine orchestra and a large number of visiting girls, combined with the holiday spirit that always prevails at Woodberry in early June, added much to the celebration and went a long Way toward making the festivity a success. As usual the two dances-one held on the afternoon of June 8th and the other tak- ing place that night in an especially decorated Cage-were the most looked forward to and most enjoyed part of the whole gathering. Preceding the latter a banquet was held for the graduating class, members of the various athletic teams, and boys who invited girls. Orville Knapp and his orchestra played on both occasions, giving one of the finest performances ever witnessed here and contributing immensely to the great success that the Hop Committee made of the Hnal dances. Of special interest was the manner in which the Cage was temporarily remodeled into a ball-room, with an arched entrance, white walls, and starred ceiling of light blue. The Dance Committee decorators had the idea of portraying a small section of clouds, which rose to an apex around a silver chandelier in the center. Opposite the sparkling entrance was placed the orchestra stand, surmounted by a shining crescent. Amid such lavish scenes the festivities, marking one of the most important events of the whole school year, were ended all too soon. The following morning graduation exercises were held on the lawn beside the chapel, where medals, certificates, and diplomas were awarded. Dr. Henry Snyder, President of Vfofford College, gave the commencement address in which he rendered a novel and interesting discussion on the trials of future life. This talk concluded the exercises and the Prep School careers of the class of '36. 143 aaofdezz clfzealf K L Forecast: -I. D.

The one and only Salad Bowl game was about to begin. Of particular in- terest was the fact that both teams were undefeated, neither as yet having played any games. There had been a slight delay at first because in flipping the coin, the referee had discovered that it had heads on both sides, but this defect was soon remedied. The toss went to Captain Hine, that charging fullback of Honeydew, who chose to receive. The whistle blew, and the game began. The kickoff landed in the hands of Trez Geddes, better known as Aiea Tre! Geddes, the junior G-man, Who, knowing that his goal was in a northerly direction, took a look at his compass and proceeded northward. He was spilled on the 35-yard line by Morro Castles. The Honeydew team set about its job in a sys- tematic manner, reaching the 50- yard line before being forced to kick. A beautifully placed punt put Mildew on its ten-yard line. This seeming threat failed to puzzle the latter, however, for they unravelled a series of trick plays which kept their opponents fContinuCd on page 35 OutcomeTUgftain Un- til Final Slice fjan. lj. Today over the W'oodberry Forest Golf course was played a match for the course championship between ChickU Cardozo and his contemporary, George Webster. The odds Wert all on Chick, as he had been playa ing with the elusive pills for many years. But, until the eighth hole, it appeared that Webby was going to win. The chicken came through on the eighth and ninth holes in perfect form, sinking his ball on both for birdies. The Match On the first hole George drove a beautiful ball straight down the third fairway. The light was bad, however, and he didn't see just where it went, so he started in search of it. After fifteen minutes of fruitless hunting he called his official ball-hunters, Chilton, J. N. Cole, Kilham, and Ncaves, to aid in the round-up. After half an hour of systematic search the pill was found buried in the ground where The Bunni' fnot Bunnyj had trod upon it forty-five min- utes before. The match proceeded and the first green was reached. Here it was noticed that Mose had no ball and when asked where it was, he thought a moment and then suddenly remembered that he'd forgotten to drive. So he re- turned to the tee and after three tries made a beautiful slice into the cow pasture. He reached the green in two, but his ball refused to drop into the cup, and he lost the hole. Georgie, cheered up by his win- ning of the first hole, captured the second with a beautiful seven while the Chick took an eight. The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth holes were halved and truly astounding shots were made by both players. The Web, espe- cially, is to be commended for watching his ball, for hc lost it but sixteen times on these holes. On the seventh hole, despite the handicap of losing one of his balls in the creek, Chicky won the hole, making Bunn only one up. The ulionnie Bearded Boy also won the eighth hole, making things even. The gallery was on edge and many hearts were fluttering now, for this last hole determined the winner. Webby made a beautiful shot, almost to the road, and Chick placed one within a foot of the edge of the green.

Sromi Bnxinznvs Manager COUNT DE CASH CONW'AX' Tri.. No. 54-40 on Fic.:-rr Etiquette The authorities of the Wood- berry For-rest School have asked us to write a few helpful hints to correct a great many breaches of etiquette that have been occurring around the school lately. The cor- rections of a few of the more se- rious misdeeds are found in the following article. In flaw Dining Room: When eating soup, don't make a loud noise as is often done, it reminds everyone of the orchestra. When the bread is passed, don't take two or three pieces, dump the whole plate in your lap. Then they can be proportioned to your friends, rather than have the incon- venience of passing the plate every time anyone wishes any. Don't jam a whole roll into your mouth at once, not that we give a darn, but it might choke you. When peas are passed, don't get dis- couraged and leave the table as most boys do because they can't get more than ten on the knife at once. Sit calmly and wait for the potatoes. These two can be easily mixed together to form a palat- able paste, of which great quanti- ties can be deposited on the knife at one time. Don't fold your nap-- kin, throw it on the floor and wipe your feet on it. In this way the corridors can be kept free from dirt. When passing the Headmaster's table, shift your wad of gum to your right cheek and smile sweetly. Every little bit helps to pull up your monthly average. In Sludy Hall: When in study hall, don't answer here or l'present, say on deck or Fm here, and what's it to you?', Too, be sure to bring a manhattan pie or a half-pint of ice cream to the hall. It makes things much more informal and lightens the atmos- phere. Don't provoke the master in charge by refusing to sit be- hind a post, do so at once. He hates to have people staring at him. In Ihr' Class Rooms: When in class don't speak harshly to tht teacher. It creates a feeling of su- periority in your fellow pupils to- wards the poor man. Don't Cen-- sure him, he's doing his best. If you feel drowsy, don't waste your time trying to doze off in the lux- uriously upholstered seats. Politely inform the teacher you feel sleepy, and he will be only too glad to let you retire to your bed. Al the Srbool Darwvx: If you are having a girl up, don't think of missing your evening's exer- cises. There are two garages in Orange that will be glad to bring her out to school for the small charge of one dollar. When she arrives, take her around to meet Mrs. Walker. She'd be in a heck- uva Hx if she had to sleep on the front steps all night. It is poor etiquette to break right back on your girl especially if you are a rat, the breaker might be a sixth former. At intermission, don't stop to look for your girl, by so doing you may get left out yourself and miss all the refreshments. With these few helpful hints you can easily be saved from em- barrassment, and when you get home you will be self-possessed in the presence of anyone who ain't been out much. Scene: Orange-Saturday night. Auctioneer: Apples! Apples! Buy them now. Hub: How much are these apples by the peck? Auctioneer: By the peck! What are you, a bird?

SALAD BOWL CLASSIC CContinued from page lj continually guessing. The combi- nation of King Kong and North Winn was unbeatable. Soon the ball changed hands and under the leadership of Captain Hine, Honeydew came into scor- ing territory. From the Mildew fans arose the ery Hit That Hine. This was not sufficient to stop Captain Hine, however. In the closing minutes of the first half he crossed the goal line. At the beginning of the second half it could easily be seen that there was going to be trouble. The penalty caller, Mr. S. Taylor, was urged to keep a sharp look- out for any violations. The first outbreak was between Pyle,' On and Pyle Off, who were engaged in fistcutiling each other. Mr. Taylor was forced to kick them out of the game. They were re- placed by Double Crosse and 'ljohn-son fnot to be confused with the master who was acting as time keeperj. Despite the loss of the two piles, Hoaeydew man- aged to maintain its lead. The only time when there was a chance of losing it was when Mildew, in a last attempt, sent Hoo-Ray and Coconut Groves in. This was of no avail, however, and the game went to Honeydew. As was the custom, the winning team was supposed to be presented with the football used. But it was nowhere in sight. The reply the losing: team made to inquiries concern- ing the ball's whereabouts was Gone with the Winn.

THE FOREST FUN K 5 Eef Beef Becomes Boss By Bearing Burdens Bravely It has been learned with pleas- ure by Forest denizens that this year's position oi Chief Stoogc Boss, which has been so ably filled hy Tiger Green, will be occu- pied during the coming session by lieef Eef. Known to many as Stooge No. 1, the Beef managed to nose out Hypo Haywood, No. 2, for the much coveted position. A victory for the Ilypo Kid seemed imminent until the semester's clos- ing days when Joseph Eef put on a spurt and attained first place in the 'l'iger's estimation. Competition was expected from Stooge No. 3. but his size delayed him at the start, and he didn't reach his stride until mid-winter. ,Thi-n, it is ru' mored, he borrowed Hypo's camera in a last effort to become the next year's Tiger, but only succeeded in clinching the race for Ref, who easily won with his nearest com- petitor hors de combat and with Stooge No. 3 hampered by IIypo's camera. l3eef's many acquaint- ances join with The Forest Funk in wishing him success. Mr. Mercer: The boys in my class were so entranced that they stayed in the room all during recess. Mr. Covington: Why didn't you wake them up? Dedicated to the father of Chick Cardozo.

Dear Poppah: I arrived here at school ten minutes ago and have been over the main building, the Chapel, three cottages, and played six holes of golf. I think I will like the school, Poppah, but I don't know yet. I met a few of my teachers. One of them I liked especially well. The boys told me that everyone called him by his middle name, but I think they were teasing me because he didn't seem to like it when I did it. However, I think he forgot about it all right because he invited me to join the Golf club and told me that some day I might get to be a mighty fine man. Oh, Poppah, I don't think I am going to like this place as well as kindergarden because some mean old boys got me up late one night and spanked me on the other side of my stummick. Poppah I ani going out for track so please send me my electric train when you get this letter. Oh, Poppah will you send me my teddy bear and my peter rabbit book for I am simply lost without them. Oh yes, Poppah, I almost for- got to tell you that I am going out for track and will throw the shot so please send me three boxes of B.B.'s to practice with. Poppah, please send me some money to get an orange W with, as all the boys are wearing them this season and Poppah, don't forget to feed my pet guinea pig and my lame duck, Woozy.

Second voice: Say, have you fellows heard this one? Well, I'll tell it to you anyway. And the waiter said, 'Has your order been taken, sir?' And he replied, 'yes, and so has Bunker Hi1l'. All: Ooohh. When did you hear that-before the war. That joke was old before you were born. Go ahead, finish it. At this point, the master en- ters, and the class suddenly be- comes quiet. Master: Well, I see that all are present. Say, boys, I heard a funny joke today. And the waiter said, 'Has your order been taken sir?' And he replied, 'Yes, and so has Bunker I-Iill'f' All: Ha, ha, ha. Gee, that's funny. I wish I could think up 'okes like that. Ho, ho, ho. Woodberry Forest School, Woodberry Forest, Va. Dear Farthah: I wish you would speak to the authorities about the terrible be- havior that has been going on about this institution. I have never seen such manners in my life. The boys are simply disgusting and the terrible things that I have been forced to submit to are on outrage. If the conduct is not remedied immediately, I will have to return home. I absolutely will not get up at the early hours of the morning which are prescribed here. I am not going to study for hours every night. Please send me more money as I can't possibly live on the one hundred dollars that you have been sending me each week. I have never been so insulted in my life. Why I wasn't even elected Captain of the foot- ball team and I look so hand- some in my uniform. And, oh Farthah! I don't want to stay here any longer. Your little son, Fume MIDDLTZTON. Wednesday.

My dear Mr. Walker: I hope that I will not hurt your feelings by asking you for a week-end leave of absence. I do not want to leave your school, but the family thinks that I should leave in order that I can give you a rest. Personally I do not want to go as I enjoy myself so much. I think that your study hall and demerit system is divine. I love the pretty teachers and my beau- tiful books, but I have to leave for a few days. I will try to get back as soon as possible, because I will miss you all so much. Your devoted student and admirer, UDUKPI' MAHLER. Notice! Notice! Anyone who wishes lessons in Dramatics or the technique of love may obtain same from Mr. Grme George. Mr. George has had a great deal of experience in these matters as was shown by his latest picture in which he was co-starred with a very lovely and glamorous local actress. This production, GIRLS' DORMITORY, was hailed by all the critics as a box-office smash when it was previewed at New York's most popular theatre, the Pitts-Madison. Here he gave evidence of his great ability as 4 gallant and champion of damsels. CI-Iis specialty is cave-man stuffj. In the course of this production not less than four well known young ladies fell victim to his flashing charms. At the most im- portant point of the show, when it became apparent that one of the four was definitely on the verge of winning first place in the estimation of the elusive bachelor. it developed that she was already married to the Ere-chief, who barged across the silver screen and with a flourish Wrote a bold Q.E.D. fquit emulating Donald Meadowsb to the whole affair. We recommend that anyone who is not an absolute success with the girls should arrange a private in- terview with Mr. George imme- diately. Have You Learned to Smoke? If Not, Why Not?

Club did not have 21 chance to get into full swing this year because of the energetic actions of its former president and its most consistent member of the 1936 session. ,Xs a result the new organization Con- tined its activities largely to the vicinity of Tucker's Tea Room. N0 record is at present known of any visits to either the well-known strawberry patch or to the secret Cube-Root rendezvous which was the scene of many past gather- ings. The midnight prowling of Ilot Towel and llot Dog kept the personnel in continual nervousness. The new generation seems to lack the restlessness which was so pre- dominant in last year's group.

QAM ULD YARN In 1877, Alexander Chatham began operating the Elkin Woolen Mills, and his first product was a homespun like the fine, strong cloth that was woven by hand in the Blue Ridge. This material quickly became known throughout the South for its wearing qualities, and soon there was a demand for Chatham Homespun wherever men wanted quality and durability in their clothes. Today, there's a new story about this old yarn. A famous men's tailor, L. Greif 8: Bro. of Baltimore, tailors Chatham Homespun into smart, sturdy suits for men, and the whole country is wear- ing Chatham Homespun suits-at a price you'll pay with a smile! Chatham Homespun suits are now on display at Crafton 8: Sparks in Orange. CHATHAM MANUFACTURING CO.
