BOARD OF TRUSTEES Mr. White Since l926 every cent made by Woodberry Forest School has been turned toward the improvement of the plant, The financial administra- tion ot the .School is handled by a Board of Trustees ot whom a major- ity--that is at least nine out ot the seventeen-must be alumni. Accord- ing to state law the trustees can gain only the satisfaction ot serving the School with their experience and ability. One of the many achieve- ments tor which Woodberry is in- debted to the board is the mainte- nance of eight scholarships worth tive hundred dollars apiece. Semi-annu- ally the entire board meets, though the executive committee assembles as it sees tit. WUUDBERRY FDREST SCHO0L l FRONT ROW: C. Johnson, Howell, G. Stacy, Norfleet, W.

It is she who posts let- ters, clippings, and notices dealing with activities ot Alumni and reveal- ing bits ot personal history concern- ing them which are unusually inter- esting, She also keeps records and in many vvays stimulates mutual in- terest among Woodberry Forest boys both past and present, Biennial meet- ings ot the Alumni Association help greatly to keep alive an active de- votion to the Alma Mater. That Alumni do not target is proved by the above photograph ot their sons now in school. SSOCIATION Mrs. Taylor 90 THE NINETEEN FURTY-0NE FIR TREE :.- .. -...- ' 4. ,Xi M- et! 4 s X W 2, -. ..

These six pretects made up an exceptionally conscientious, ef- ficient Senior Council to which the Woodberry ot i940-l94l owes much. E IOR COUNCIL SEATED: Griffin, M. Smith, Fray.

PREFECT BOARD The principle ot the Pretect Board is a corollary based on the proposi- tion, now accepted as a law in our country, that humans respond more readily and tar more voluntarily to rules administered by persons select- ed trom among themselves. Coop- erating with the faculty and in some cases acting independently, the pre- tects are specifically charged with keeping the corridors quiet at night, inspecting rooms to assure prompt- ness in rising and retiring, regulat- ing smoking, dealing with the rare breaches ot honor, and several other important duties. This year instead of being entirely formed at the tirst ot the tall term, the board was gra- dually built up from a minimum pos- sible number. 'iw' 5 29223 Reporting Demerits THE NINETEEN FURTY-0NE FIR TREE l l Mr. Covell The congregation ot St. Andrew's Chapel little suspects the important part played in its services by the Chapel Council By cooperating with Mr. Coyell, the chaplain, and aiding lvlr. John Walker in the selection ot ministers, this group helps plan the services, Once plans are realized, members ot the council collect dona- tions used to help boys through the Blue Ridge lndustrial School and to feed and clothe a few ot the less tor- tunate. The School is similarly in- debted to this group, lvlr. Lord, and Mr. John Walker tor the Wednes- day evening prayer seryices. Thus the Chapel Council assumes the re- sponsibility ot student body repre- sentation in religious activities. THE CHAPEL COUNCIL SEATED: Rice, Horn, W. Johnson, Tyler, Strickland. STANDING: Harris, McBurney, Griffin, Boomer. The Captains of the five major athletic teams and one other mem- ber, elected by the student body, compose the Woodberry Forest Gen- eral Athletic Association, better known as the G. A. A. Since the most prominent athletes of the School make up this group, membership is guite an honor, one of the hiahezt goals that an athlete at Woodberry can hope to attain, For many years it has been the duty of this organiza- tion to aid in the selection of letter- men, which is often a difficult task requiring careful and thorough con- sideration, Although essentially an honorary position, membership on the G. A. A. board requires no little re- sponsibility. WOUDBERRY FUREST SCll00L John C. Cole G. A. A. SEATED: W. Mohler, J. C. Cole, Fray. STANDING: Wilson, Griffin.

THE DRAMA TIC CLUB School plays are on a whole rather ludicrous attairs. But the dramatic presentations at Woodberry Forest rank perhaps as notable exceptions to this generality. Their excellence is due to Mr. Chambers, a remark- ably unerring director, to Mr, Lath- am, a capable and versatile supervi- sor ot scenery construction, and to the boys who do the acting, A good deal ot genuine hard work lies be- hind each at the two yearly presenta- tions, but when audiences and play- ers vveigh ettorts against results, they know that the hours spent in con- centrated practice by the Dramatic Club are not wasted.

Walker Dances are important events, and the Hop Committee, an organization ot outstanding personalities zealous in providing the best ot social tes- tivity, bears a heavy responsibility, Decorating the gymnasium, collect- ing the price of attendance, and se- lecting big-name bands are the main duties of the Committee. Mrs, Walk- er's assistance in sending and arbi- trating invitations and in tinding quarters tor the girls adds an essen- tial personal touch. Mr. Latham al- so helps with the embellishment of the gymnasium. Small wonder there is that the social climaxes, these re- freshing breaks in school routine, are so successful. it is a lot ot enthus- iasm and tacttul management that makes them so. Guns have suddenly become ex- tremely important to this Nation, and so have trained eyes behind the sights Under the instruction of Mr. Rogers, a crack shot with military experience, the Woodberry Forest Rifle Club, a member of the Nation- al Rifle Association, practices with 22 calibre target rifles and, during the warmer months, also shoots standard U, S. Army Springfields. Rifles are furnished by the School, but of course some boys prefer to shoot their own.

Practically everyone of this group learns the fundamentals of the game far the first time. With such a start, many of the Mites develop into varsity first string material, Under the guidance of lvlr Dandridge, they were able to win several six-man games against nearby teams, and displayed an abundance of talent. Because it allows more interscholastic riv- alry and improves ball handling, the Mites are split into teams of six to a side and operate competitively. THE MlDGETS Although they have some games with other schools, the Midgets are divided into sep- arate six-man teams and have an intramural tournament which lasts the entire season: each team, named by its members, selects a captain and fights for a reward, which is usually some privilege or trip, presented at the close of the season. Mr. lvlacLaughlin deserves much credit for his spirited work with the boys and the manner in which he turns out future varsity stars, JU N IOR VARSITY FOOTBALL This scrapping group of boys, ably coached by Mr. l-larrison and Mr. Ray, composed one of the mast spirited J V, teams that has ever been seen at Woodberry. Although the team was not o heavy one, it made up for its lack af weight with a seemingly uncon- auerable spirit. A hard-hltting offense and fcst backfield fully made up for the Juniors! rather weak defense. Their scrap and fight enabled them to finish up a successful seo- son in which they lost only one game, RIFLE TEAM Thanks to the excellent ability of Mr, Rogers, who developed a crack rifle team, Woodberry was able to take its stand against the neighboring military schools and often proved too good for them With on ultra-modern indoor rifle range in which to learn the technique of firing, these boys proved themselves the best of many who competed for the privilege of be- ing an the rifle team. With Captain l-lawky Harrison and several others returning next year, the Forestmen should see a very suc- cessful season. JUNIOR TRACK Among this group are some of the most industrious boys in school. Possessing a fine competitive spirit, these juniors raced against themselves or against time practically every day this spring and proved to be a very promising lot. Although it was no easy job, the Tiny Tigers defeated Episcopal's Junior squad on Hanes Field by the score of 68-58, taking 9 out of I4 first places. With the start given them by Mr, Saxton, many will undoubtedly be on next year's varsity. TENNIS TEAM With Bill Shannon playing in the number one spot, the Tiger tennis team compiled a record of nine wins against six defeats Under the help of Mr. Dandridge, these boys were able to make a steady improve- ment, and, though defeated on several ac- casions, they performed creditably against all opponents. Although only a Third Former, St. John Bain played on the varsity team and won many of his matches. The next few years should find him invincible, and a terror to all opponents. GOLF TEAM Captained by Billy Alden, the Woodberry Golf team went undefeated through its sea- son with one of the best records ever estab- lished. With Montague burning up the Staun- ton course, the Forest linksmen defeated the Cadets l2V2-5V2. A weak Davitt Prep team fell to the tune of ZOIQ-V2, while a crack Virginia Frosh team lost a close I4-I3 match. Thomas Jefferson was blanked. At the Newsleader Tournament in Rich- mond, the Tiger's captured the Prep School Team Trophy-proving their ability beyond a doubt. JUNIOR VARSITY WRESTLING With competition for berths on the varsity squad as stiff as it was, the J. V, wrestlers, well-coached by Mr. Cav and Mr Harrison, were constantly fighting for places on the team. The Junior grapplers always wrestled with spirit and skill during the eliminations, in which the varsity men usually had a more difficult fight than they encountered in any of their matches. Having proved indispensable as conditioners, the J. V.'s verified their fefiti FOOTBALL Co-Capt. Sam Fray Back A genuine love of the game plus speed and elusiveness made Sam a safety man and running back cleluxeg he returned many punts tor long gains, while his passing eye completed his requirements for one ot Woodberry's outstanding backs. Promi- nence in college ball should be certain for this eel- hipped ball carrier. Co-Capt. John Cole Back Spirited Pete climaxed his last year on the Tiger team by putting his everything into each play ot every game. Severe in tackling, running, and blocking, John caused his opponents much worry. Woodberry will sorely miss the presence of this great back who has been a mainstay tor the past four years. F. P. Harrison Davidson L. W. Dick, Jr. Davidson H. S. Covington Davidson J. M. Mercer Virginia GRIDIRON SEASON When the cooches colled together the l94O Tiger squocl eorly in September, they found thot much work hod to be done -ond it wos done, for despite mony injuries, the Forestmen won tive out ot eight tilts and piled up one hundred ond nine points to their opponents' titty-tour. Losing its two tirst string ends, Grittin ond Funkhouser, wos o severe blow to the Tiger squad but wos one which wos odmirobly obsorbed by the re- serves. Even the loss ot Co-coptoin Som Froy tor severol gomes wos not enough to disheorten his tighting teom-motes. Although the Forestmen were deteoted by St. Christopher's, it wos the tirst time that o Woodberry teom hod ever scored ogoinst the Richmond eleven, lncidentolly, the thirteen points scored by the Soints were the only ones to mor the record ot the Tigers in their tight for the stote chompionship, Nevertheless Woodberry returned three weeks loter to deteot their orch ri- vols, E. l-l, S., l3-O, thus goining the honor ot hoving the best defensive record omong the stote preporotory schools. To climox the seoson Thoch, Stricklond, ond Arnold were oworded positions on the All-stote prep teom, while Froy ond Fuller received honoroble mention.

S., he showed in that, and for intervals in oth- ers as well, that a fighting little man can often be as valuable as a big one.

The game was featured throughout by the splen- did punting of Thach of Woodberry and McCraw of the Freshmen, Early in the contest a recovered fumble deep in their own territory followed by a series of passes produced the winners' first touchdown. The remainder of the half was played on even terms and saw no further scoring, A third period penalty gave the visitors the ball near the Woodberry goal and enabled lVlcCraw to dash over with the second scoref Cole drives against Fishburne as Griffin attempts to clear the way, 121 .

Roper GEORGE ROPER End By stepping into football with the realization that there was hard work ahead, George was able to fulfill his desires. A born plugger, this determined new boy showed much improvement as the season progressed and ended with honors by playing regularly at end, ED WELLS Guard Being one of the fastest line- men was a great advantage to Ed, whose job was to lead inter- ference from his guard position on many plays. Well built for this job, he was likewise a good defensive player and at times outcharged the opposition con- , sistently, l 122 The final quarter witnessed the only sustained march of the day which, despite Woodberry's gallant goal- Iine stand, culminated in lVlcCraw's plunge for the winners' final six points. SOLDIERS ROUTED Taking advantage of a blocked punt and a short out-of-bounds kick, the Tigers' improved eleven shoved over two touchdowns in the first half and then added four more in the last two periods to swamp Eishburne Military School, 38-O, on l-lanes Field. The Cadets offered stern resistance throughout the early part of the game but gradual- ly weakened before the hard-run- ning Woodberry backs and the ac- curate passing of Buddy Thach. The Tigers' weakness on pass defense showed up again but this time caused little damage. l-lighlighting the play were Cole's 65-yard run to the visitors' 2-yard line just as the half ended, and Espy's 40-yard re- verse to the Eishburne l-yard mark. Woodberry missed a seventh touch- down when Euller's 40-yard dash was nullified by a penalty. Wells VICTORY AT LYNCI-IBURG Clinging to an early lead, the Tig- ers were forced to the limit to stave off a potent aerial attack and down a fighting V. E. S, team, 7-O, on the latters' field at Lynchburg. During the course of the game three touch- downs were annulled by penalties- two for Woodberry and one for the Bishops. Woodberry took the opening kick- off and in seven smashing plays drove into pay-dirt with Fuller spin- ning over for the last remaining yards, Thach placekicked the extra point, Twice again Fuller broke in- to the open and crossed the goal line only to be called back on weird penalties, while Virginia Episcopal's Dashiell suffered a similar fate when he took Schoew's pass and crashed over for an apparent score, This game proved costly to Woodberry as both Griffin and Funkhouser were lost for the sea- son, while Thach was incapacitated for several weeks to come.

Although his kicking was erratic at times, he made many spectacular boots, which demon- strated his ability in this field, I-le was one of the team's lead- ing ground-gainers. JIM BURBOTT Center Switched from a tackle posi- tion to the assignment ofa much needed reserve center, Jungle showed unusual aggressiveness for a boy playing his first year on the varsity. Jim played his best boll in the difficult job of backing up the line, Thach and Cole swarm over EpiscopaI's Neff. Macon Academy at Eront Royal, Following a scoreless tirst auarter, the second period opened with runs by Cole and Rice which put the ball on the Cadet Illg but here the Tigers were halted Midway at the second period the winners got their first score on lVlcEall's dropkick from the Woodberry IS-yard stripe, while early in the second halt the Cadets recovered a tumble on the Woodberry 20 and scored again on a pass tram lVlcEall to White. The tormer converted with another dropkick. With their backs to the wall the winners clung to their lead throughout the tinal quarter. SAINTS WIN AGAIN Missing two early scoring opportunities following the recovery ot a pair ot fumbles, Woodberry took the short end ot a I3-6 count at the dedication ot St. Christopher's Arnold Robinson BILLY ARNOLD Tackle Persistent Cuddles time and again put his massive frame to use against enemy runners. De- pendable to the last, this scrappy tackle fully deserved his position on the All-State prep team. l-lis return will be a great asset to the I94I Tiger squad. CHARLIE ROBINSON End Enthusiastic and fast, although light, I-Ioaey became a depend- able flankman. l-lis shrewd play- ing an the defense was prominent in many games, while his block- ing improved as the season wore on.

In the second period two Tiger miscues presented the Saints with similar scoring chances on both ot which they capitalized, with Carrington pushing over the tirst and Miller the second. The third quarter produced the only sustained march ot the day in which the Tigers advanced 60 yards, lost the ball to the Richmonders, regained it immediately when Cap- tain Cole blocked a punt, and three plays later sent Fuller over tor Woodberry's tirst touchdown on record against the Saints. A mastertully played detense, consisting of 5- and 7-men lines, spelled the ditterence between victory and defeat tor St. Christopher's, TIGERS CLAW THE IRISH A pair ot blocked punts, both ot which were converted into Benedictine touchdowns, Roberts Jones RUFUS ROBERTS Tackle To Rufus hard work was part ot the game. ln spite ot his e weight he was always one ot the 1 first down on punts, Should he return next year, a prominent po- stion on the Tiger squad is promised to this diligent and in- telligent Virginian. l DYKE JONES Tackle Handicapped from the begin- ning ot the season by a wrenched back, Dyke, nevertheless, proved to be a tighter. His diligent work in practice was otten noticed by his teammates and coaches, while he always made his presence ob- vious when in a game. 125 I Espy McBurney forced Woodberry to an all-out fin- ish in the final period, which pro- duced two touchdowns and a i9-l2 verdict over the Irish. Trailing, O- 6, the Tigers made their first tally in the second quarter on a lO-yard run by Captain Eray. Benedictine went ahead in the third period, but a 45-yard run by Euller knotted the count, while Thach's extra point sent the home team out in front to stay. Euller's second 45-yard run produced Woodberry's final mark- ers and put the game on ice. AT DUSK Tl-lE BELL TOLLED The Chapel bell rang at twilight on November 22nd, and at night the victory barnfire blazed, for in the fortieth annual game between the two elevens, played this year on l-lanes Field, a fighting Woodberry team defeated its arch rivals, Episcopal l-ligh, l3 to O. The two teams spent the first quarter testing each other's strength, and the majority of this period ticked away as the opposing forces see-sawed back and forth in midfield. The Alexandrians pro- WESLEY ESPY End Wes has always shown great enthusiasm for football, and that, combined with his natural ability on the field, made him a valuable reserve. Shifted from the back- field to the end position, he showed his determination and alertness especially on his de- fensive play. BEN McBURlXlEY Back An excellent kicker and a good pass receiver, Ben was ready to step into regular action when Fray was injured, For a boy with so little Varsity experience he showed up particularly well, de- veloping into one of the best de- fensive players on the team. TOP: McBurney makes short gain against Benedictine. BGTTOM: EpiscopaI's Lee snares West's fourth quarter pass. JOHN MONTGOMERY Guard Although hampered by poor Q eyesight, John was one of the best defensive guards on the squad, His hard charging was outstanding on many occasions. Sickness prevented his playing in every game, but next year should find him in a topnotch condition BROWNIE RICE Back Light but full of energy and possessing an abundance of team spirit, Brownie showed up best on the defense where he stopped many threatening plays both run- ning and passing Should he gain weight, The Lone Star State would do well to reclaim him. Montgomery Rice vided one alarming interlude when they recovered a fumble well inside the Woodberry 45. But the Tigers rose to the occasion and smashed the advance, The home team opened the sec-A and quarter with a superb offensive. Taking a Maroon kick on their twenty, the Orange and Black drove down the field in four plays to Episcopal's twenty-four-yard line. From here Fuller smashed his way on a spinner through the whole Ma- roon squad for a touchdown. Ful- ler's conversion was good, and the half ended, Woodberry-7, E. l-l. S. -O. Early in the third period, Fray, snatching a Maroon punt on their forty-five, raced to Episcopal's eighteen, Taking advantage of this gain, Fray then threw a per- fect touchdown pass to Robinson for the last score of the game.

MAT Cl.ASl-IES IN REVIEW For the past five years the Forest matmen have been supreme, but this year marks one of the best teams in all of Woodberry's athletic history. Boast- ing seven wins against no defeats, the Tigers were victorious over all opponents including V. lvl I. Frosh, which also claimed one of the finest teams in its history. Capturing the Championship in three states, the Tigers defeated such teams as W. and I.. Frash, lvlercersburg, McDonough, and the above mentioned V, lvl. I,-eeach representing the best in its respective section. TIGERS RIDE WAVE TWICE Starting the season with a 27 to 3 win over Pet- ersburg in Alumni Gymnasium, the Forestmen con- tinued their good showing three weeks later with a second victory over the same team at Petersburg, the score this time being 24 to 6. In his first varsity match Tillett pinned his op- ponent but in the return engagement was barely outpointed. Greene scored double wins, pinning his man in the second match. Accounting for eight points Curtis pinned in the first and decisioned in the second, Smith, who twice scored victories, was followed in both engagements by Jones, who was also credited with two wins. The iinx came in the I65-pound class where Cassell and Crockett were defeated in turn by the Petersburg Captain. Never- theless, dividing the I75-pound division, Thach and Arnold both came through with pins. In the heavy- weight class Efird and Thach finished things off, I-lugh decisioning his opponent in the initial meet- ing and Buddy winning by a fall in the return engagement. 130 WRESTLING CAPTAIN BILL GRIFFIN ISS pounds When power and finesse are coupled with alertness and technical knowledge, superb wrestling is the product. By corn- bining these Bill has for three years add- ed many points to the Tiger column. This season, suffering but one defeat against keen competition, he set a vic- torious example for the team he so cop- ably led. Mr. Covington Mr. Harrison GENERALS GROUNDED The Little Generals from Lexington found they had bit off more than they could chew when they journeyed to Woodberry for their annual meeting with the Tigers. The audience witnessed three guicla falls by Tillett, Greene, and Curtis, which gave the home team an early fifteen-point lead Al- though they were never what you would say on the spot, the next four Forestmen, Smith, Captain Griffin, Cassell, and Thach had to satisfy themselves with decisions, In the unlimited class l-lugh Efird was out- pointed by the Generals more experienced Waddington, who gave the losers their lone tally in the one sided 27 to 3 decision MERCERSBURG DEFEATED Journeying to Mercersburg, Penn., the Lawrenceville of the South lso the Tigers were called by the Penn. State Championsl added another victim to their string. Tillett began W ood be r ry's scoring with a decision which Aj, inspiredGreeneto ' -- conquer his man inthe nextmatch. Not to be out- done by his mates, Curtis threw his opponent, In one of the best exhibits of wrest- ling ability, David Smith outpointed his heretofore undefeated opponent, while Jones put in a pin to clinch the South- erners' victory. Undaunted, however, Mercersburg came back to gain its lone win of the day with .a close decision over Cassell. Thach and Arnold continued their undefeated seasons with victories, the latter winning by a fall. Manager Ben Tyler STANDING: Hipp, Jones, Cassell, Miller, Arnold, and Bellamy.

V, M I. increased its lead to l2-6 when Jones was defeated, but at this point into the ring marched Cuddles Arnold, who pinned his opponent in his best performance of the year and made the score ll-l2. The entire sguad was on its knees praying as Thach entered the ring against V. M l.'s undefeated Stell, but Buddy came through by outpointing his opponent in a fine dis- play of courage and ability, giving the Tigers victory, by the narrow margin of l4 to l2, over a previously undefeated team which had scored decisive wins against such teams as the freshmen of North Car- olina, N, G State, and V. P. l. ST. ALBANS SUFEERS Putting the capstone on a victorious season the Tigers defeated St. Albans at Washington, 27 to 3. Trant started the Eorestmen to victory with an easy win. Although Bellamy was outpointed, Greene and Curtis evened the score with well-earned victories. Buddy puts McDonough matman through the books. Because of the scarcity of heavyweights St. Albans had three in the L45-pound class. l-lowever, the Tigers showed their versatility with three swift falls by Smith, lvliller, and l-lipp. Jumping to the l65- pound division, Griffin outclassed the HUGH TILLETT l2l pounds For a newcomer to go a season with only one defeat is exception- al, but l-lugh did exactly this, his lone defeat being a close decision.

But this didn't seem to affect them the wrong way, for they came back undaunted in the last four games to press their opponents hard and secure well- earned victories over them all, turning in a record of 6 wins in ll starts, The winning streak started when Captain John Cole pitched 5 hit ball to defeat St. Christopher's by a score of 4-2, and ended ten days later when he hurled a winning I4 to I3 game against a strong Episcopal I-ligh School team to earn the State Prep Championship. The way in which the team ironed out its many early season faults and developed that competitive spirit of which Woodberry is proud is a thing that could not have happened without the wholehearted cooperation of the coach and entire squad. VIRGINIA COMES FROM BEHIND Playing far from errorless ball the Tigers lost their opening game to the University of Virginia Freshmen. Captain John Cole pitched for the home team and allowed very few hits, but a total of ten errors caused the Eorestmen to give up their early lead, for the Erosh, taking advantage of their opportunities, came through with several timely hits and two runs in the ninth inning to win the ball .game by the score of S to 4. The Tigers showed BASEBALL CAPTAIN JOI-IN COLE Pitcher l-lis fast ball was the worry of many opposing batters, while his spirit was ceaseless. Calm and good natured, Pete proved to be the tearn's spark plug. To his fellow players, he was that dependable boy who would always do his best for them and for Woodberry, and who never thought of himself. Next year will find the Old Faithful sorely missed by all who had the pleasure of working with him. Coach Hub Covington many wrinkles which would have to be ironed out. PETERSBURG POUN DS OUT VICTORY Again the Tigers were forced to bow to a late inning rally, this time it was to Petersburg I-ligh School, and again it was on the home diamond. Euller, pitching his first game for Woodberry, did admirably, showing that with a little experience he could have complete control on the mound. I-lowever, the fear of wild throws continually haunted him and pre- vented his throwing as he had in previous innings, The Wave drove across six innings in the ninth and won the game by the score of 9-5. BlSl-lOP'S BOW Playing at home and taking advantage of numerous Bishop errors, the Tigers blasted two V, E. S. pitchers for l7 hits and as many runs to win their first league game. Until the ninth inning, the visitors were unable to halt the Woodberry slug-fest, which began with two runs in the first. V. E. S. picked up five tallies in the fifth and sixth, making the score l7 to 5 in the eighth. Although the Bishops tallied four times in the ninth, they were unable to overcome the convincing Tiger lead and fell short by the score of l7 to 9. CADETS CAPTURE CONTEST A walk and two hits gave Eork Union a first frame two-run lead over Woodberry. Undaunted, however, the Tigers garnered four runs off three hits in the second. The Cadets picked up eight more runs, six of which came in the fourth, while a one-run rally by the Tigers in the ninth fell short and the visitors won by the score of lO to S. Brilliant pitch- ing bythe Ca- det's Lachman, who held the Tig- ers to 5 hits, put the home team's pitching staff in a poor light as three Forest hurlers gave up ten walks and fourteen hits. YELLOW JACKETS YIELD Launching a l2 hit attack which includ- ed one homer, two triples, and three dou- bles, the Tiger nine defeated R.-M. A. on the latter's field, B to 3. Captain Cole allowed nine hits, but they netted the Ca- dets only three runs. Playing almost errorless ball, especially Bunny Fuller, who made several beautiful plays at short, the Woodberry infield shone brilliantly. Still fighting hard but in vain, the Yel- Mg r.

FISHBURNE RALLY FATAL Facing one of the smartest as well as the best curve-ball pitchers they had yet been up against, the Tigers lost a 4-3 de- cision to Fishburne Military Academy on the home diamond. Fuller held the Cadets to a few scat- tered hits until the seventh, when Captain Cole went on the mound for Woadberry. ln the ninth the visitors rallied, and took his offerings for three hits and a walk which accounted for all of their four runs. Although it was a hard game to lose, the Tiger squad profited by the mistakes they made and were, accordingly, in better shape for their next opponents. RlCl-llvlOlXlDERS VICTORIOUS Errors afield and faulty base-running gave St, Christopher's a 7 to 5 victory over the visiting Tigers. The Saints, getting a total of fourteen hits, managed to push across seven runs, garnering three in the first and fifth frames, and one in the sixth, A Pl-llLIP TAYLOR First Base illness made Phil vacate his posi- tion at first in mid-season. However, during this time he proved to be o valuable player. l-lifting consistently and fielding well, Phil would un- doubtedly have shown much improve- ment by the end of the season. BERRY COLLINS Pitcher Famous among his teammates for his bean-ball, Footsie served on the varsity squad as a second string hurler. l-lis portside pitching in prac- tice sessions did much to raise the Tigers' batting average on the days when they faced southpaw mounds- men. while Woodherry mode five well-eorned runs, on twelve hits, four of them by Jones, the Tiger cotcher. Both pitchers, Cole for the Tigers, ond Tinsley for the Soints, hurled good poll, but insufficient support for Cole enobled the Soints to win.

Undoubtedly the squad included some excellent track material, but weakness in the weight events proved fatal in several meets. With Captain Bill Ivlohler earning well above ten points per meet and Sam Fray and Bill Griffin dependable for many others, the Tigers showed unusual strength in these boys' respective events, Others valuable for points were Robinson, Boomer, Ziebold, Smith, D., and Rice. At the C Club meet in Washington, the South- ern Conference Prep Champion Relay team-com- posed of Robinson, Eicklen, Boomer, and Eray- finished in a tie with the rival E. l-I. S. auartet, this being the fifth race between the two, each winning two of the previous encounters. Captain lvlohler also scared a double win in the hurdles and Eray captured the 440 to give the Tigers a tie for sec- ond with Baltimore Poly, EASY CONQUEST The Tiger cindermen started the l94l season on I-lanes Field with an easy win over two outclassed military schools, the final scare being Woodberry, TTVZ, Fishburne, 4l Vg, and Fork Union, 2-4. Taking six of the thirteen first places, the Tigers were never pushed at all. Captain Bill Mohler scored wins in both hurdle events, which, along with a second place in the high jump, gave him a tie 150 TRA CK CAPTAIN BILL MOI-ILER Hurdles Long legged and fast, Moria was high scorer for the Tigers in practically all of the meets. In his races-the high and low hurdles-he was defeated only twice, while in the high jump he picked up many points and often took first place. Elected Captain at the beginning of the season by his teammates, Bill lived up to his position by averaging better than ten points a meet. J. M. Mercer University of Virginia L. W.

SAM FRAY Quarter Miler Speed, sturdy legs, and a natural competitive spirit were all shown in Sam's fine display ot running. Keep- ing his time around 52 seconds all season, Sam opened up in an early meet to break the track record with a 5l.8 seconds quarter mile. well ahead, Claiborne continued his good showing with third place. SECOND VICTORY The result ot the Tigers' third track meet was Woodberry, 605, l-landley l-ligh, 48V2g and R.-M, A., 34. The spectators on l-lanes Field witnessed some outstanding running when Francis McFaIl ot R.-M, A. won the century and 220-yard dash in the excellent times ot lO seconds tlat and 2l .7 seconds. Mohler and Griffin won tirst and second respec- tively in the high and low hurdles, inci- dentally, each scored eleven points in the meet, Again Sam Fray finished tirst in the quarter, but this time it was Charlie Rob- inson who followed him tor the valuable second place. The vaulters were well rep- resented by Browne Rice and Jim Pillow who tied tor tirst place, As l-landley does not usually run the hurdles in their class of competition, it is only tair to state thatwithout these events, the Tigers would have lost to them by tour points. T. J. SCORES UPSET With the score tied after eleven events and the Tigers leading atter the tweltth, Thomas Jetterson ot Richmond scored first and second in the broad jump to earn a 6OV2 to 5672 victory over the Tigers. The track on l-lanes Field was in top condition tor the bevy ot good cindermen, the most outstanding ot whom were Fray ot Woodberry and Morgan and McLean ot OWENS BOOMER Sprinter Boom Boom will probably best be remembered for his outstanding running on the mile relay team Nevertheless, his position on the scjuad was that of sprinter, stretch- ing his long legs with such de- termination that he was usually rewarded for his efforts BILL ZIEBOLD Miler One of the hardest workers on the squad, Zeke came through this year as expected. Although not the best miler in the state, Bill won many points during the season, and next year should find him ranked with the best of them. T. J, each of these boys scored fifteen points, Eray's coming from the century, furlough, and quarter. The Tigers' weak spot was the discus event in which they foiled to gain a point. Nevertheless, lylohler garnered valuable points with a win in the high hurdles and second in the lows and high jump, while Rice took first in the pole vault, Eight of the thirteen first places were earned by T, J., Woodberry accounting for the majority of the seconds and thirds. PETERSBURG EASY PREY After journeying from Petersburg to meet the Tiger cindermen, the Wave found the Forest teorn too much for it and went down in defeat by the score of 74V2 to 42V2. Realizing the necessity of determining the ability of boys in various events before the State meet, Coach Dick shifted several individuals from their usual places, Among the more outstanding records turned in were an excellent cjuarter by Owens Boomer, previously ci sprinter, and a fast time in the low hurdles by the Tiger 440 man, Sam Erayu O'Donnell was by far the best on the Petersburg squad and saw action prac- tically all afternoon. The Forestmen scored clean sweeps in the half, high jump, and low hurdles, tak- ing nine of the thirteen first places, while the Wave scored first, second, and third in the shot and discus.

AUGUSTA DOWNED In spite of the danger of red measles imminent at Woodberry, A, M. A. met the Tiger cindermen on l-lanes Field as sched- uled but failed to outpoint the favored Forestmen, suffering a Tl -46 defeat. The field events again proved to be the Tigers' vulnerable spot, for in them the Cadets took all five of their first places, leaving only the pole vault for Woodberry, incidentally, the Forestmen made a clean sweep in that event and two others, the 440 and the high hurdles. Garnering first places in the high and low hurdles, Captain Mohler was high scorer for the Orange and Black, but high scoring honors for the day went to Nate Adams of A. lvl. A. Woodberry's eight first places were dis- tributed among Mohler, Fray, Ziebold, Smith, D, Lambeth, Robinson, and Guyton. Although Mr. Dick considered the meet as a tune-up for the State meet, the records turned in were exceptionally good. BISHOPS BEAT BEST Contending against twelve prep schools in the State track meet, the Forest cinder- men were unable to retain their rank of the two previous seasons, placing fourth with l8V2 points, Vi E.

This oration was delivered to on almost empty hall, as only a few boys were awake, much less up and dressed, at that awful hour of 83lO, after a hectic Spring Holiday. For little Daniel had taken it as a great April Fool's joke on .l. C. to arrive 24 hours late at school from his vocation, and now Daring Dan holds the distinct honour of being the only boy in school to try such a daring feat. Many have commented, Oh, so now he's an April fool too, huh? When Big Dan was inter- viewed by our star reporter, lma Stupe, and asked for a statement for the press, he replied in a per- plexed tone: l just can't under- stand it. 'Punctuolity' has always been my motto and the excess ex- travagance in the employment of my innumerable extra days grieves me no end. O1 Notice To a chosen few, I will, on Monday next, explain my system of granting Week-End Leaves-of- Absence. This is a rare offer, as no one understands this system but myself. U, C. W., B. V. Dl GOA1Lg EEK The latest addition to the stu- dent body proved to be quite a sensation, for he was none other than Homerun, totherwise known as Billy l mascot of the baseball team and janitor of the Smokehouse. The problem of feeding our four legged friend was soon solved On his first visit to the Smokers, l-lomerun cleaned out ashtrays, consumed paper, and rid the Den of Eniquityu of all rubbish, cigarette stubs being his favorite food. Billy has the record of being the first goat ever to offend, by biting, on old member of the W club. Being used to the kind at- tentions of Kaya Strickland, Homerun proved his faithfulness by wording off the advances of McBurney, for which he was amply rewarded with more stumps from Strick. Luckily an iron stomach pre- vented Billy from a disastrous end, for nature loving Mr. Joe, upon learning of the arrival of the vegetarian, immediately had his henchmen spray all the gross and shrubs with a deadly poison, which only proved to be a first course for the goat. Not satisfied with merely his orange juice enterprise, Henry Lee Myers decided to go into the milk business, but his plans were short- lived, however, when informed that Homerun was a Billy, not a Nanny. MASKED MARVEL VISITS WOODBERRY On Funday, sometime during February, all the inmates of the Woodberry Forest Concentration lpurely physicall Camp, turned out for o battle royal between the ir- resistible Smoke House auintet and the immovable W Club basket- ballers The haze of blue smoke over the gym floor was so thick that sensational plays were often lost to the spectotor's eyes tnot to mention the referee'sl. The new- fangled fire-alarm system was put to its utmost test. Confused and bewildered by the poisonous fumes the poor little gadgets clanged and buzzed, and rang, and jan- gled, and finally the bucket brigade discovered that Boney Spears and Smokey Davis, first-string substi- tutes, were the cause of the not- so-unusual mid-day fire. When the smoke fbattle and otherwisel had cleared, the game was just getting really exciting. For it was at this dramatic mo- ment that the feature attraction made his debut, Out onto the court from his warm-up box trot- ted the Marvelous Masked Marvel of the Smokers. The huge throng of screaming convicts was hushed, as the Mar- vel, muscles bulging beneoth his black tights, proudly strode into the game. A great cheer went up from a thousand sore throats os he took his place for a few wildly misdirected warm-up shots. As the game went on, however, he really began to shine, breaking all Smoke-House records by success- fully sinking one out of his forty- seven attempts at the elusive bas- ket. But Coach Mohler decided that fContinued on page 27 THE DAILY DOPE 2 The DAILY DOPE Pususncp TRY - Aiyixiufxitv Editor .....,....., i. M. sruivipr War Corres ......... D. STROYER Business Mgr. ....... U. R. NUTZ EDITGRIAL Perhaps it would help to give the Forest creatures an idea of lust how the famous Dope -sheet started. Many yawns ago the need was felt for the injection of some really intellectual news into Ye Ever- green. This news was to be in the form of a daily-dope-sheet tacked in between the annual and the ads, and would show life as it is lived at Woodberry when its clothes are off. For many years the Dope prospered, until it became a scan- dal sheet of the first order. Great things were expected this year, but there was a marked difference in School life from other years. Wood- berry wore its pants tight this season, so the aim had to be changed to a fashion show of the new styles The conservative sea- son has been photographed can- didly and gives you the Pic of the hustling Forest community. Due to that silly war scare, auite a few of the choicest news bits were censored, but always with an eye for the best, the edit- ors devised a skillful code which escaped even the most Mercer-less eyes. Like Kleenex the Dope is at- tached so that it can be easily disposed of after use. DEB'S DELIGHT Are You Sick? Are you run down?

The contest waged be- tween Straw Taylor and Chub- by lvlarchant proved to be the mast sensational ever held here. Aided by a series of flying blocks the two succeeded in tiring each other, to say nothing of the audience, The fur was flying as far as the eye could reach. Neith- er gained any appreciable advant- age at first. They hit the mat with a tre- mendous crash as the whole build- ing quaked, Straw seized a toe, only to find that it was his own. Not to be outdone, he kept on applying pressure until he forced himself to give up. Meanwhile, Chub was tiring himself by BASEBALL - ? - TODAY Asst, Manager I-larris's Hit- less Wonders, with Curveball Kernan pitching, versus Hunsuck- er's Jay Vee Mudhens, with Fire- ball Fox pitching. This game, the opener of the season, is sure to be a thriller. This is foreseen by the records of the two teams. Kernan holds the record of the most consecutive in- nings to allow hits. The Mudhens are known for their last year's hit- less losses. The game will begin at 3115 this afternoon, the gates will open at 3:lO. squashing his bridgework in a frenzy of fury. The referee awarded the de- cision to Straw because he was the first to pin himself. The prize was three demerits. NNXXXMKHXHXMKXMMXNXX WHY NOT TRY MY MY NEW INVENTION?

Naturally Harrison was o little weak at the end of the race, and complained of a strange emptiness, but when finally able to talk he declared that hash, pea soup, and beets had put him in the condi- tion necessary to win such o race.
