M, WWW 'SQRKSNQ MALIIIE FIIHETHIJ SHT The editing of a school annual may become a veritable fool's paradise if you consider that what you are expending so much work on is nothing more than another leather-bound volume designed to accrue dust on some remote bookshelf. No, a yearbook must be more than just a catalogue: it must catch, in word and picture, the spirit of the school. it represents. Whatever else it accomplishes it is our hope that THE FIR TREE will reflect Wood- berry Forest as the school it is to us. Having run amuck countless times in the course of its preparation THE FIR TREE this year has lost all its artistic and literary pretensions. Nevertheless, despite war, despite rationing, despite costly errors and broken deadlines, it is not without pride--and a profound sigh of relief-that the Editors present the product of their way- ward but loving labor-THE 1943 FIR TREE. Bllllli I minififrafion ln no department of the School have the rigorous demands of wartime been more acutely felt than in the faculty. It is with wisdom and foresight, how- ever, that the remaining masters have helped Woodberry students stem the tide of a period dilli- cult for all. There have been times this year when waves of restlessness and demoralization have passed over the entire School. Often it has not been easy to realize that, even in wartime, education is essential. But somehow we have stood firm. Woodberry will survive this and all other wars so long as it is backed by men of such caliber and learning. XX J. CARTER WALIQIEH.

Later it became the home of Captain Robert Stringfellow Walker, who first founded Woodberry Forest as a school for his own children and those of nearby families. That was in 1839. Today the Residence is occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph G. Walkerg and although there are now many more buildings on the grounds, this quaint edifice still remains the seat of Woodberrfs finest traditions and the proudest landmark of the School. F. G.

The Board of Trustees Convenes THE HUAHH UP Mr. White Ph-v TRUSTEES Since 1911 Woodberry Forest School has been a non-profit organization, nominally owned by the alumni and governed by the Board of Trustees. This group, composed of seventeen men, chiefly alumni, settles all Wood- berry,s business and operating prob- lems in its meetings held twice a year. Minor problems which arise in- between-times are handled by a three- man executive committee which meets twice a month. Mr. William H. White serves as the capable Chair- man of the Committee. Capably directed by Mr. Walter Mercer, President, and Mr. Willialll Camp, Vive-President-both elected in the Seventh Biennial Alumni Meet- ing lust November-as well as Mrs. Rawleigh Taylor. the Secretary, the Alumni Assm-iatiun has heen able to keep alive the interest of the gradu- ates in their Alma Mater. Mrs. J. M. Merver assists Mrs. Taylor in corre- sponding with the alumni, whose letters are often posted on the Alumni Bulletin Board to he read hy the entire Sehool.

THE PHEFEIIT Bllllllll Finest among Woodberry traditions, the Prefect System has, for forty- three years, administered its phase of school government with loyalty and devotion to its Alma Mater. Radic- ally reorganized in the 1941-1942 session, the new type Board was com- posed of ten Prefects, in addition to the newly-formed Board of Monitors. This system, again adopted for the session of 1942-1943, has justified the faith of both Faculty and Students by guiding Woodberry through one of the darkest periods in its history. Early in the fall Bill Stephenson was unanimously chosen Senior Prefect. The loss, in mid-year, of Frank Hun- sucker, one of the Board's most valuable members, occasioned the election of two new Prefects, Bill Bussey and Dick Keenan. Guardians of the Honor System, the Prefects share some of the power and influence of the Masters in main- taining order and upholding high standards of conduct. The work of this yearis Prefect Board has done much to insure the success of future Boards by pursuing a wise and fore- sighted policy. Their sound judg- ment, loyalty, leadership, and innate school spirit have upheld the prestige of this most important of Wocrdherry organizations. First Row: Glascock, Logan, Weinig, Warner, Bussey, W., Love, J., Payne. Second Row: Hendren, Duncan, P., Rieman, Taylor, R., Emmett, Ware. Third Row: Eshelman, Rankin, Sprague, Searson, Saxton, Knisely. THE MIINITIIH BIJAHD Though still a comparative innova- tion the Monitor Board this year showed every indication of becoming a permanent institution in student ad- ministration at Woodberry. Com- posed of members of the Sixth Form who have been at Woodberry for three years or more, the Monitor Board thus makes possible a wider delegation of solne of the authority vested in the Prefects. Because the emergencies of wartime forced four Monitorsfjohn Stout, ,lack Barnes, Bill Pollard, and Earl King-to leave school before graduation, three new members were added to the group: Frank Emmert, Paul Wickliile, and Jack Glascock, who, though not tech- nically qualilied, were chosen to fill the vacancies because of special com- petence. Completing the second year of its existence, the Monitor Board has grown in power, prestige, and sense of duty. Monitorial privileges in- clude an extra hour of study at night, as well as special exemption from task work for demerits. Hand in hand with the privileges go the duties of maintaining order and upholding high standards of conduct, and it is these duties which the Monitors have loyally fulfilled. For more than two decades the Chapel Council has led all student participation in the religious activi- ties of Woodherry Forest. Directed hy the Reverend Charles Covell, this group, through the offerings made each Sunday night in St. Andrewis Chapel. has heen able to establish scholarships at Blue Ridge lndustrial School for two local boys, to supply Christmas and Thanksgiving boxes for underprivileged families, and to send several Boy Scouts from Orange to summer camps.

War is not a lovely businessg already we have sensed repercus- sions of its tragedy. Yet this much may be said of it: that it brings to the surface all the faculties of courage and resourcefulness latent in men's characters. Perhaps the hazards of war may touch upon something more virile in our natures than any peacetime adventures could ever do. It is a far cry from Hanes Field and Anderson Hall to Tunisia or Guadalcanal, but the gap is one that Woodberry graduates can safely travel. aw 'iwsqw 151943 PIB TREE f SIXTH PUHM nrfllzlans... THE WIIIIIIBEBHY FUHEST SEHIJUI. SIDNEY SHERRILL ALDERMAN, JR. WASHINGTON, D. C. Those who peer beneath the tranquil surface of Sidney's penson- ality are rewarded by glimpses of a conscientious, affectionate nature. He might well be called a conservative for he never enters into an adventure without making sure of it. But there have been plenty of adventures since his first arrival at Woodberry-just ask him about those Cottage A escapades. Endowed with remarkable mechanical talents, Sid was an inveterate tinkerer and builder in the shop, at the same time contributing capable work as star photog- rapher for the Oracle. A student of capacities, he often revealed flashes of subtle wit within the conlines of English themes, as well as elsewhere throughout the School. THE 1943 PIII TREE Z WILLIAM CAMPBELL ARNOLD, III STATEN ISLAND, NEW Yomc It is not only for obvious reasons that '4Cuddles', will fill an extra large niche in Woodberryis Hall of Fame. The fact that he has been one of the School's most distinguished athletes-evidenced by his Captaincy of football and Co-Captaincy of wrestling-partly accounts for his universal popularity, but surely his ability to win friends matched his athletic prowess. From the first he evinced qualities of leadership: capability and a humour by turns suave and up- roarious clinched his positions as member of the Hop Committee, President of the Smoke House, and Prefect. Colorful, amiable, and full of fun, Will has made as fine a record as any Woodberry could boast of. THE WUIIDBEHRY FIIHEST SIIHIIIIL WILLIAM MUIR BUSSEY ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA Ever since he entered school three years ago this native of St, Pete has distinguished himself by his likeable ways and his ability to get things done. A hard-driving hack, Bill this fall graduated from the Jayvees to the Varsity Reserves, while in the winter and spring he efficiently managed track. ln the realm of outside activi- ties he occupied a position on the Chapel Council as well as im- portant posts on both the Oracle and THE FIR TREE. The election of Bus to the Prefect Board reasserted the maxim that good humor and willingness to work still constitute the formula for success at Woodberry. THE 1943 I-'III TREE WILLIAM FRANCIS COLLINS, II RICHMOND, VIRGINIA One of Woodberryls most versatile athletes is Bill Collins, valuable plunging fullback on the gridiron and capable letterman of the basketball and baseball teams. Footsie', applied his aggressive spirit to studies as well as to athletics and shone constantly on the Honorable Mention List. Possessing an attractive personality and an understanding nature, 'LFoots', well deserved his place on the Prefect Board, and proved his ability by controlling the wild C-1 and C-2 dorms. Hose Nosen is friendly and likeable, and will always be remembered as an interesting participant in the numerous bull sessionsn around the School. Billis quick wit and genuine friendliness will be hard to replace in future years. THE WIIUIJHEHIIY FUHEST BIIHUIIL JAMES CLARK COURTENAY, JR. LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY Woodberry's self-appointed booster of good old Kentucky is Jimmy Courtenay of Louisville. Possessed of a striking and aifable personality, he had little trouble in making friends in all quarters of the School, particularly in the hazy depths of the Smoke House, where he was the chiefest advocate of hearts . In the field of sports Jim advanced from the ,layvees to the third string Varsity during the ,4-2 football season, played Varsity basketball for two years, winning his MW this winter, and distinguished himself in Varsity track. With scant effort he ranked high as a student, for the Honor Roll seldom seemed complete without his name. THE 1943 FIB THEE GEORGE LACY COYLE, JR. CHARLESTON, WEST VIRGINIA Somebody yells Track!', and before you can collect your wits a red Hame flashes by. Donit be alarmed. ltis only Red Coyle breezing along over the cinders. George began his track career four years ago, and it was then that he made up his mind to be a runner, climaxing his efforts with a letter in the sport this spring. But it is not track alone in which 'Tlamingou is talented, for he has always been considered one of the better students of his form, ranking high on the Honorable Mention List. A valued member of the Smoke House, George has left the imprint of his ruddy personality on everyone he knew. THE WIIIJIJBEHHY PIIHEST SIIHIIUI. PETER DUNCAN PENSACOLA, FLORIDA Five years at Woodberry have given this native Floridian the reputation of being cheerful, hard working, and conscientious. Spotted as a 'tnaturalw during the early part of his lirst year, Pete has since that time devoted most of his athletic efforts to track, climaxing his career as an outstanding sprinter and high jumper by winning a coveted 'LW', this spring. Besides his abilities in track. he was also a fleetfooted star of the ,layvee backfield. The residents of upper Cottage B still recall with awe the iron hand with which he ruled in his capacity as monitor. THE 1943 FIB TREE PAUL WARD ESHELMAN, JR. NORTH WILKESBORO, NORTH CAROLINA His abilities as a writer and as an English scholar having earned for him a reputation as the Paul Bunyan of WOOdberry,s literary world, Ward was an apt choice for Editor of the '43 FIR TREE. The fact that Esh', passed through his extra-curricular adolescence early in his school career well qualified him as a disarming sage of all newcomers to his staff. His versatility in conversation com- bined with a classic wit made him an integral part of the micro- cosmic Smoke House, and aided him further as President of the Book Club. Woodberry returns Ward, a passive athlete possessed of an active mind, begrudgingly to North Wilkesboro. THE WIIUIJBEBHY FIIHEST SIIHIJIJI. HERVEY EVANS, JR. LAURINBURG, NORTH CAROLINA Long, lanky Hervey Evans is a good fellow in every sense of the words. ln studies, he ranked among the best, his name always adorning the Honorable Mention List or the Honor Roll. As deft in athletics as in Book Club papers, or FIR TREE articles, he estab- lished himself as a feared matman, easily winning his wrestling letter and contributing his ability to the Varsity football and baseball squads. Good-natured and full of humor, Herv, a Smoke House regular and a friend to everybody, will be remembered as one of the most likeable boys in school, and, as such, a fine example for future students to emulate. THE 1343 PIB TREE l THOMAS WALTER FIELDS, JR. ANGUILLA, MISSISSIPPI From deep down in the bucolic delta of MOI, Miss comes rugged, aggressive Tom Fields, fighting All-State fullback on the gridiron and a brilliant pole-vaulter, hurdler, and broad-jumper on the track team. With limitless enthusiasm alld genuine ability, Tom has shouldered the load of Prefect fof HUncle Tomas Cabinwl, member of the Hop Committee, and Secretary and Treasurer of the Smoke House. But 6'Anguilla will be remembered most for his great sense of humor, his ebullieut spirits, his mischievous grin, and his love of fun. One of the most popular boys in school, Tom is one of those rare Heharactersl' Whom Woodberry will never forget. THE WIJIIIIBEHHY FUHBST SIIHIIIJI. JAMES TREANOR GRANBERY, JR. BRENTWOOD, TENNESSEE This stocky lad from Tennessee came into prominence soon after his arrival at Woodberry by earning his Varsity football letter as a new boy. His profound understanding of the Spanish language, bordering on a new conception thereof, was soon evidenced by his thoughtful questions in class. One of the more brilliant from the galaxy of Turner Hall wits, Jim has added zest to bull-sessions of that imposing edifice, while at dances he has proved a veritable social piston. THE 1943 FIB TREE JOHN RANDOLPH GRYMES, JR. ORANGE, VIRGINIA A day student at Woodberry for five years, Randolph has thus been restricted in athletic accomplishments and extra-curricular activities. Of late, however, he has been an active member of the Rifle Club, and, by virtue of his stay, a member of the Century Club. Lunchtime at Woodberry found him daily playing ping-pong in the game room or eating with the other day scholars in their familiar car. On town-permission days he was usually seen in and around his father's drug store, the favorite meeting-place of many school gourmands. Quiet and unassuming, he has won, by his amiable personality, many friends. THE WUIIIIBEHHY FUHEST Slllllllll. JOHN HART JR. CHARLESTON, WEST VIRGINIA A smooth and easy-going West Virginian, John became an out- standing Woodberry athlete in spite of himself. It is to his credit that, without great expense of effort, he developed into a trackman of parts-for he mastered the javelin, the shot-put, and the high- jump. In addition, his agility in both diving and swimming were a delight to watch at the pool. During the colder seasons of the year, he covered athletic events with his camera as the Oraclefs head photographer. In the classroom his fantastic geometry proofs occasionally brought roars of laughterg but John could laugh as well as any other-witness his inevitable presence in Turner Hall bull-sessions . THE 1943 PIII TREE WILLIAM HARDY HENDREN, III KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI Varsity wrestler, Oracle reporter, Monitor of A-3, and general ambassador of good will from K. C., Mo., Hardy has had little difficulty in gaining a group of staunch friends during his three years at Woodberry. His efforts as a wrestler, tireless and enthusi- astic, won him a HW in his last year. His wit and ability to tell tall stories have made 'Sample Packagel' a welcome addition to the incessant A-3 'abull-sessions . A member of the Choir, his natural exuberance often overHowed in song on the corridors as well as in the choir-loft. Consistently Honorable Mention in his average, Hardy displayed traits of tenacity and ability which insure success. THE WIJIIIJBEHHY I-'IIHEST Slllllllll. 3 HENRY FRANKLIN HUNSUCKER, JR. HIGH PoINT, NORTH CAROLINA The first to leave Woodberry and go directly into the armed forces, Frank has left behind him many staunch friends and an im- pressive record of athletic and scholastic achievement. Having already won his letter in football and baseball last year, Honey,, was headed for another WH in wrestling when the Air Corps called. He was an able and well-liked member of the Prefect Board, a high- ranking student with a ninety average for his four months' Sixth Form career, and a big man in the Woodberry Social and Smoking Club. As President of the Hop Committee, Frank was also a con- stant menace to lower-form dates. THE 1943 EIB TREE BYNUM MERRITT HUNTER GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Four years have converted high-spirited, mischievous Bynum Hunter into one of the most accomplished boys in school, where he has been constantly in the Honorable Mention bracket and promi- nent athletically. As a speedy wingback, Black Dogi' earned his letter on the football eleven, and, as one of the fastest sprinters in the State, was elected track Captain. Serving on the FIR TREE Staff, Chapel Council, G. A. A., and Board of Prefects, Little Biti' has illustrated his ability by enthusiasm and courage. His dogged determination to succeed, sprinkled with a true sense of humor, accounts for his wide popularity among both boys and masters. THE WIIIIIIBEHHY PIQIHEST SIIHUUI. VAN DYKE JONES BELLE MEADE, NEW JERSEY When Dyke headed South four years ago, an unknown place called Noo Joisey was destined to be heard from at Woodberry. Since that time this fiery, warm-hearted, and universally popular boy has blazed through Woodberry with a record which, in future years, will be marveled at by many but equaled by few. Copping off nearly every Captaincy on the athletic teams, Dyke has headed, either jointly or singly, baseball, football, and wrestling. Aside from sports, The Deekerl' has won places on the Hop Committee and the Prefect Board. Now all Woodberry knows what N00 Joisey is, and his classmates can justly say of Dyke Jones: 4'This was a man. 43 THE 1943 EIB TREE RICHARD DeGRAFFENRIED KEENAN COLUMBIA, SOUTH CALOLINA Richard DeCraffenried Keenan believes that South Carolina is Cod's Country. Those who attempt to prove otherwise find them- selves face to face with arguments so devastating that they can only sigh: uHere is a man of convictionslv And that is utterly true. Shiney's subtle and unexpected wit, his unique view of life, and his companionability have by this time ingratiated themselves into everybody's favor. Scholastically, Shiney ranks with the leaders of his formg except, of course, when he becomes a philosopher. Pre- fect, Captain of the golf team, and Smoke House raconteur extraor- dinary, Shiney has proved himself that thing which Woodberry likes most-a personality, and a distinctive one at that. THE WUIIIIBERRY FUREST Slllllllll. GEORGE MORGAN KERNAN, JR. THE PLAINS, VIRGINIA The class of ,43 has a decided preference for 'sCurve Ballw Kernan. His chubby-cheeked, grinning face has originated such an abound- ance of impressive greetings and expressions. that they frequently became oft-used classics among his friends. A familiar How are ya, kid?', usually heralded his appearance. But George combined the spirit of hard work with his humor. A real hustler on the ball diamond, HCuI've Balli, twice earned his letter fand his Hl4'lCll3lIlFl as a dependable pitcher and outlielder. As a scrappy guard, George always usmooched for distance on the Varsity eleven. 'L,labo's contagiously eflervesccnt personality has made him a Yvoodberry landmark. 45 THE 1943 FIB TREE JACK BEALE KITE ORANGE, VIRGINIA The distinction of being Woodberry's only 1943 post-graduate falls to this high-ranking day student from Orange, whose stay has sur- passed the rigid requirements of the elite Century Club. Both scholar and athlete, Jack, during his sixth year, substituted in the blocking-back position, won his Varsity football 'LW , and, in the spring, repeated his performance as a letterman pitcher on the diamond. That a day student cannot distinguish himself at Wood- berry is no longer an axiom, for Jack has exploded the theory, and his absence will be as great a loss to the School as the vacancy left on the campus by his familiar Ford. THE WUUIIBEHHY FUHEST SIIHIIIJL RANDALL JAYSON KNISELY, JR. ROANOKE, VIRGINIA Four years a member of the Woodberry community, Randall is still smiling and drawling his way through the complexities of life. Besides being a prominent member of the Smoke House gang, he has acquired no small reputation as one of Mr. Dick's more valuable naturals As a Monitor, Knise,, exerted his .influence over riotous Cottage B with a success easily traceable to his friendly disposition and perpetual smile. With the University of Virginia in view for next year, Knise finishes four years not likely to be soon forgotten. In so doing he leaves in the files a capital record and to Woodberry at large the memory of a swell fellow. THE 1943 FIB TREE FREDERICK WHITING LOGAN LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY The most eager participant in those literate nocturnal discourses, better known as 'abull-sessionsi' on B-3, is amiable, curly-haired Fred Logan. When Fred Hrst arrived at Woodberry Mr. Dick saw his potentialities, and this year that foresight paid dividends. Holding down the first-string guard position, L'Loge was ultimately selected on the mythical all-State eleven. Perhaps '4Loge,s'7 greatest asset is his contagious good humor and his ability to delight his friends. His love for the rocking rhythms of boogie-Woogie amounted to a passion, and rainy afternoons usually found him knocking out the bass on the Public Hall piano. THE WIIIIIIBEHHY PIIHEST SIIHUIII. JAMES SPENCER LOVE, JR. GREENWICH, CONNECTICUT Mild and soft-spoken, Jimmie has distinguished himself by con- stant friendliness to everyone during his four-year stay at Wood- berry. His high scholastic rank and his declamatory ability fin several contests he brought honor to his forml have been matched by outstanding activity on the tennis courts and on the boards of both THE FIR TREE and the Oracle, to which he contributed intelligent and consistent service. His name appears, too, among those forming the distinguished roster of the Smoke House. The dim corridors of B-1, which Spence has disciplined with monitorial act, will be all the gloomier without his ailable nature, and slow, warming smile. THE 1943 FIB THEE JOHN BYNUM MERRITT, JR. CREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Those busy eyebrows and that mock-solemn air disguise but thinly the quick wit and ready intelligence so inherent in 'gThe Rabbi . The school records would say that Johnny was Prefect, member of the Current Events Club, contributor to both Oracle and FIR TREE, Captain of the Varsity Football Reserves, and a Varsity second on the baseball squadg but his friends, who are many, would say that he is also a competent student, not infrequently a wit, and an absorbing conversationalist. Not without reason did those FIR TREE bull-sessionsw wax far into the night. And if you toast cheese sandwiches after bells, expect 'The Rabbin in: he has an infallible nose. THE WUIIIIHEHHY FUHEST SIIHIIIUI. WILLIAM POINDEXTER MOORE, JR. BLACKSBURG, VIRGINIA A striking combination of the kibitzer over-your-shoulder, the Prefect-on-your-dorm, and the spark-of-enthusiasm-in-youI'f'bull-ses- sionf, Bill's colorful exterior did not belie his depth of character. He has a right to kibitz, for he himself plays a superior hand of bridge with true Smoke House gustog while his effervescent interest iII activities and his unbounded pride in Woodberry and the stuff Prefects are made of. Serving as an invaluable aid on the Oracle and as President of the Current Events Club highlighted ulVlush- mouth's intellectual bent. And in athletics, particularly Varsity football, he rounded out a record of which Woodberry is justly proud. THE 1943 EIB TREE LEE MERIWETHER PAYNE NORFOLK, VIRGINIA A wealth of good humor and vivacity are reflected in Lee's ingratiating smile. He has been able to spend his four years at Woodberry doing just those things he likes best, for his interests range from science to stage sets. Scholastically he had little diiii- culty in permanently affixing his name on the Honor Roll. Manifold in his talents, he contributed his writing to the Book Club and THE FIR TREE, while also helping design settings for Dramatic Club plays. And congregations of St. Andrew's Chapel remember him as the tenor who so often soloed in anthems. P-P's,' impish humor was a delight to all those who knew him. THE WIIIIIIBEHHY FUHEST SIIHIIIJL RUFUS PINKNEY RANKIN, JR. CASTONIA, NORTH CAROLINA Gastonia needs no other exponent as long as Pink Rankin is around. Into his three happy-go-lucky years he has crammed high scholastic averages, varied extra-Curricular activities, and friends garnered from every form. Whenever the cry of Hearts! went up in the Smoke House, Pink was on hand to shoot the bull--and often the moon. Moreover, Pink served as Sports Editor of THE FIR TREE, as a member of the Chapel Council, and as an energetic cheerleader. With the managerial duties of football and a berth on Varsity baseball to fill his cup, Pink has cut a wide swathe that will not be obliterated in many years. THE 1943 PIH TREE GILBERT FLETCHER RIEMAN NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA Four years ago Fletch arrived at Woodberry fresh from the Cali- fornia sun. With a dogged will he set about to make his career at school a success, and doubtless he has. A perennial wrestler, he finally capped his efforts in the 128-pound class with a letter won this season. This spring his work on the track squad proved he possessed speed as Well as strength. Displaying mental qualities comparable to those in athletics, he contributed his writing to the Oracle, THE FIR TREE, and the Book Club. Over his monitorial domain of A-3 he exercised severe but amiable authority, inspiring an affectionate terror among his rowdy pack of new boys. THE WIIIIIIBEHHY FIIHEST SIIHIIIII. ROBERT THOMAS SAXTON WIJODBERRY FOREST, VIRGINIA To Vtfoodherry genial Bobby is lnore than an ordinary student-- he is an institution. Through conscientious work and extra-c'urric'ular activities. he has hem-ome well known throughout the student hody. Bohhyls interests have been Centered largely in the Oracle. lNot only has he been one of its most capable typists, hut he has also often helped with the paper's Saturday night movies. lnipresario in his own right, Bobby has presented a few silent productions of his own. A familiar sight, too, has been Bobby efhciently at work behind the counter of the Book Store. These activities he has Constantly topped hy one greater-gratuitous supervision of irresponsible Second and Third Formers. THE 1943 FIB TREE R ARNOLD SEARSON RAPHINE, VIRGINIA Everything Arnold does or says bears the stamp of an individual- ist, whose opinions are his own. Perhaps the most widely read member of the Sixth Form and a connoisseur of popular records, Arny,' always afforded interesting conversation. His love for golf was inborn, and on any clear day in the spring or fall-and sometimes even late in the winter-his tall, lanky figure could be spied striding the links. It was not without reason that he held down a position on the golf team. For the past two years 6'Seer- suckeri' has been a valued residentgand lately Monitor-of A-1, where all have enjoyed his distinctive nature. THE WIIUIJBEHHY FIIHEST SIIHIIIII. FRANK JULIAN SPRAGUE, II PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY A sarcastic Spra-a-a-gue , a laughable MF. J.,', a pompous F, P. Sprague, II',, or an affectionate 'flulesi'-these aliases all point to a figure of legendary proportions at Woodberry. A genuine comedian with sound intelligence to back his wit, Frank has sifted through four delightful years at Woodberry, winning laughing ad- mirers wherever he went. It was inevitable, in his Sixth Form year, that he should invade the Smoke House. There, wreathed in billows of smoke, his amused classmates found him daily playing bridge and tossing off witticisms with inimitable Spragian abandon. Possessed of an irresistible personality, Julian will always be . . . Julian. The laughter he has caused will echo years after he has gone. THE 1943 FIB TREE WILLIAM KEENAN STEPHENSON GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA Combining sly wit with sound thinking, Bill has been one of the best-liked among all groups of boys at Woodberry. Since his genuine friendliness and unassuming mannerisms have gained for him so much respect, it was natural that Steve should be elected as Senior Prefect for the 194-2-1943 session. Despite a slender build, The Seniorf' by his rugged determination and willingness to work, has won monograms in both football and baseball. The post of Senior Warden of the Chapel Council and a berth on the Hop Committee have but added to his stature. Woodberry's respect and admiration will follow him through the years. THE WIIIJIIBEHHY PIIHEST SIIHIJIII. PETER TALBOT CHARLoTTEsv1LLE, VIRGINIA One of those fortunate Yankees who had the good sense to come South to school, Pete has spent two successful years at Woodberry, characterized by diligence in studies and an occasional prank. During his senior year, Junior Varsity football claimed him in the fall, track in the winter, and in the spring he was seen without fail on the tennis courts. Fame was quick to descend on him, moreover, through his continual attempts to destroy the chemistry laboratory, bestowing upon him the name of Bunsen Petev. ln his leisure time he could often be found pursuing his favorite hobby, photog- raphy, or practicing vociferously on his clarinet. 59 THE 1943 PIB TREE RICHARD CHATFIELD-TAYLOR WASHINGTON, D. C. Hailing from Washington, Nantucket, and points in between, Socialite Dick Chatfield Taylor possesses one of the Sixth Form's most companionable natures. His easy-going manner and his keener-than-you-realize sense of humor have enabled Chatfield'7 to meet with success in every school venture he has undertaken. In his four years at Woodberry he displayed genuine interest in extra- curricular activities-he was the Oracleis Circulation Manager- and a remarkable talent for throwing memorable parties. As an athlete, Dick served as a Varsity sub in both football and track, and as a Monitor, The Lordn helped quell riots on C-2 and later in Cottage A. THE WIIIIDBEHHY PIIHEST Slllllllll. WILLIAM BARLOW WARE, JR. N1-:w Yomc CITY, NEW Yom: By persistence and industrious work, Barlow from New York's Fifth Avenue has well proved his worth in his four years at Wood- berry, consistently standing high in his form. A mainstay on tennis and fencing teams, Barlow has found time also to devote to the Book Club, the Oracle, and THE FIR TREE. A capable actor, he turned in a smooth performance in Room Service , this year's hilarious dramatic production. As a monitor he held things down in riotous Cottage A. Barlow's unfailing good will has won him many friends at Woodberry, where his black hood and briar pipe have been so long familiar fragments of the daily mosaic. THE 1943 FIR TREE BRAINARD HENRY WARNER, III MT. VICTORIA, MARYLAND Brainard is one of those rare boys who possesses the ability to do almost anything he wants . . . and to do it well. In the four years he has been here, Brain,, has become one of the top-notch boys in the Sixth Form. Scholastically, he has steadily alternated between the Honorable Mention List and the Honor Roll, while athletically, he is as reliable as he is gifted. Besides these accomplishments, Brainard gave his talents to both the school publications, not to mention the Book Club and the Dramatic Club. Fine manners, good humor, and a hearty laugh-these are the qualities for which his host of friends will remember him longest. THE WIIIIIIBEHHY FUBEST SEHIJIII. DANIEL PEABODY WEINIC BUFFALO, NEW YORK Into four hectic years at Woodberry Dan has crowded so many hours spent on extra-curricular activities that his record for doing and being is not likely soon to be surpassed. As the feverish editor of the Oracle, Desperate Dan very nearly tore his hair out by the roots preparing new editions. But his sphere of activity also ex- tended to THE FIR TREE, the Book Club, the Choir, the Varsity football reserves, and even Smoke House bridge games. A genuine Yankee and endowed with the vigorous opinions and self-assertive- ness thereof, Dan has left the imprint of his vivid personality forever stamped on the annals of Woodberry. THE 1943 I-'IH 'l'llB,E PAUL RENNOLDS WICKLIFFE, JR. GREENVILLE, KENTUCKY A Kentucky mountaineer blessed with plenty of common sense and a rollicking humor, Paul has aspired for success at Woodberry with the assurance of one who knows what he wants and can get it. Despite an unusually heavy load of studies, Pounder emerged as leader of the Sixth Form with an average consistenly Honor Roll. The distinction was so great that he was nominated to iill a vacancy on the Monitor Board, regardless of the fact that he was just in his second year. Athletically, basketball and baseball claimed most of his attention. One of the Smoke House regulars, it was there that he won a reputation for friendliness. THE WIIUDBEHHY PIIHEST SEHIIUI, EDWIN MOIR WILSON BLUEFIELD, WEST VIRGINIA This well-muscled individual, hailing from the West Virginia side of Bill Dudleyis Bluefield, has made himself prominent on Wood- berry's campus both as aII exponent of physical culture and as a preeminent student of science. Weiner,', a hy-name acquired in his Cottage A days, seems to have stuck with our hero of the parallel bars and. when uttered sat-religiously by a new boy, brings dire conse- quences oII the impudent brat. His ready Wit has won for him innumerable friends. The acquisition of this technically Ininded youth would be an asset to aIIy college, and Ed has decided iII favor of M .l. T., whose campus he will grace next year. 65 Name and Address Years Form ELMER H. ADAMS 1 V 1826 Howard St., N.W., Washington. D. C.

Basket ball, Sub-Form Six 77 Bllllli III rganizafiond A boy's prominence in school life is measured not altogether by his athletic and scholastic achieve- ments but by his interest in extra-curricular activi- ties. THE FIR TREE, the Oracle, the Dramatic Club, the Choir-these organizations give everyone a chance to indulge in his particular whim and talent. It is safe to say that school life would be pretty deadly if all of its time were spent in studies or even in athletics. The fact that the Band and the Glee Club were added to the list of activities at Woodberry is enough to show that interest in school organizations still flourishes. E3 Eg i Jw Qi ,A ,0- '.,,,,, W. ,ix Na, Q k W W 4 . ...mln X Lf, in 'Sa Hunt THE P Thirty-two previous editions, all of unusual merit, have given the ,423 FIR TREE staff a h' h lg mark to shoot for. Since a yearbook is not merely the record of scholastic, athletic, and extra-curricular activities during the school year, but a cross-section of school life as well, THE FIR TREE demands a staff which will co-operate with enthusiasm and precision. This year, though hampered by growing wartime restrictions, Editor Ward Eshelman set to work with determina- tion to maintain THE FIR TREE's high rank. Ably assisting the 1943 Editor were his various associate editors: er, Eshelman, Dunnington TREE Watt Dunnington, Business Manager who paid the bills and ran the FIR TREE storeg Bynum Hunter, who headed the Advertising Division, Pink Rankin, Editor of Sports, Dan Weinig, in charge of the Graduate Section, Tom Brown, who ca pably handled photography, Alex Boyd, who compiled L'Who,s Who'7g Bill Bussey, who supervised the Organi- zations Sectiong and Bob Heins, who edited the Humor Division. Support- ing the staff as Faculty Advisers, Mr. Norfleet and Mr. Mercer helped THE FIR TREE out of a number of scrapes and immeasurably contrib- uted to the success of the yearbook. 80 9 Ward Eshelman. ., Watt Dunnington ..A.,..., Bynum Hunter .....,.....

THE IIHMILE A vital factor in school life, the Woodberry Oracle packs within its four-page semi-weekly issues, inter- esting features, entertaining columns. and a complete coverage of both sports and other news of interest throughout the School. This year energetic Editor Dan Weinig has in- troduced several innovations, among them a separate sports page, leaving the front page entirely for news. Complementing a smoothly running editorial stall were Managing Editor Wvarren Fickleng Associate Editors Bill Pollard, Bill Moore, and Ward Eshelmang Sports Editor Brainard Warner, Typing Editor William Bus- seyg Exchange Editor Ernest House, Circulation Manager Dick Chatfield- Taylor, and Business Manager Hervey Evans. Among the outstanding reporters for the Oracle have been Fletcher Rieman, Watt Dunnington, Jim Hardy, David Schenck, Edwy Lee, and Barlow Ware. For the photog- raphy in each issue the newspaper was fortunate in having three enthusi- astic amateurs: John Hart, Sidney Alderman, and Torn Brown. Finally, the Oracle is deeply indebted to Mr. Mattfield and Mrs. Norfleet, advisers, for the publication, whose genuine and unselfish aid have been invalu- able in maintaining the success of the newspaper, and who have always been willing to serve.

This year's programs tapped such provoca- tive sources as Poe, Stevenson, Fran- cis Parkman, and ancient myths and legends. Undoubtedly the most illuminating program was that on Latin America. Presided over by Ward Eshelman, the Book Club num- bered as members fifteen boys and four masters. First Row: Fox, Werth, Heins, Dunnington, W., jones, W., Fitz-Hugh.

Hard work and careful training soon patvhed this deficiency, and the vongregation of St. Andrewis Chapel was again impressed by the Cl'1oir's volume and quality of tone.

THE HLEIE CLUB This year the Clee Club was added to the steadily increasing list of extra- vurrieular avtivities at Woodherry. l'nlike the Choir. the group was eom- posed of lmoys who had had little or no previous voir-e training. Meeting for an hour eavh Tuesday evening. under the direction of Mr. Mac- Means. the singers devoted long hours to mastering breath eontrol and the intriear-ies of harmony. By spring the Clee Club had become proficient enough to eollaborate with the Band in a spring concert. Gloe Cluln rehearses Mr. MaeMeans leads the band The din which issued from the lower end of the Gymnasium each consulta- tion during the fall term marked the formation of the new Woodberry Band. Under Mr. lVlac:lVleans, direc- tion the discord-makers soon matured into a group of competent musicians whose lusty playing of school songs added a new enthusiasm to the cheer rallies and football games. Through- out the winter term, the Band, by constant drill, so extended their reper- toire that they were able to present a concert in the spring. THE BAND Seated: Love, J., Bryson, Talbot, Prioleau, Myers. Standing: Symington, Mohler, Preyer, R., Beasley, Hart. This year great interest, particularly among the younger boys, was shown in the Rifle Club as marksmanship took on a new meaning and impor- tance in the world today. The many younger members learning to shoot for the first time were trained under the experienced eye of Mr. Barnett. who spent much time supervising the firing both in the gallery and on the range. Displaying remarkable docility these would-be marksmen showed every indication of becoming impor- tant members of the Rifle Squad in several years' time. THE RIFLE CLUB Mr. Barnet!

THE IIUHHENT EVENTS CLUB Mr. Barnett I VJ' ,W ....-A Composed of eight boys interested in world affairs, the Current Events Club for the past several years has met every other Thursday night under the direction of Mr. Barnett. This fall a valuable addition was made to the Club in the person of Mr. Mattfield, whose understanding of present-day events gave new in- terest to the discussions. Bill Moore was elected this year's President. ln their informal meetings the members report and exchange opinions on world happenings. Moore, Jones, D., Fields, Arnold, Stephenson. THE HUP IIIIMMITTEE For two hundred Woodberry boys, Midwinter Dances are the high spot of the winter term. The suwess of this important social event depends upon the Hop Committee. composed this year of Tom Fields. Bill Arnold. Frank Hunsurker. Dyke Jones. and Bill Stephenson. The ingeniously deeorated gym floor provided an appropriate setting for the 1943 fes- tivities. Over fifty belles attended, and Johnny Satterlieldis music sur- passed expeetations. As always Mrs. J. Carter Walker served as the graci- ous hostess for the occasion. Mrs. Walker Blllllil .fdfkdficfi Despite wartime limitations, Woodberry this year produced three championship athletic teams-foot ball, basketball, and track. Only a single tie with Randolph-Macon besmirched the record of the '42 Varsity eleven, who emulated the example of other recent teams by defeating Episcopal High School 61-0. The basketball season was likewise marked by victories--notably over Episcopal and St. Chris- topheris. In baseball and wrestling the Tigers were not so well favored, but, considering the curtailment of travel enforced by wartime restrictions, both teams showed up well. And in track a decisive win at the State Meet in Charlottesville put Woodberry in full possession of the coveted Cup. First Row: Glascock, Jones, Arnold, Fields, Moore, Logan, Gammon, Cranbery.

Here come the Tigers! The Curtain Rises On a water-logged Hanes Field in the curtain-raiser against Washington's Roosevelt High, the Tigers took the field-a mere shadow of their mighty 194-1 proportions. Only three first- stringers from last year were back in harness. And sixty seconds later the visitors were in front, 6-Ol It tooli a blocked punt by Captain Arnold to give the Orange and Black scoring position late in the Hrst period. With Jones leading the way, Glascock promptly took advantage of the situation on an end- sweep for touchdown. A pair of fumble recoveries produced two additional last- half opportunities, and Hunter, Collins, and Glascock combined in advancing JACK Gmscocb: Back One of the few boys chosen unanimously for the All-State eleven, Gramps led the team at tailback throughout the season. Spunk, power, agility, and determination, plus a knack for calling signals and throwing passes. paved the way for .lack's many touch- down drives. FRANK HUNSUCKER Back One of the few returning lettermen, t'Honey , by his brilliant reverses and defen- sive play. won fame for his many scoring Hights around end. His speed and elusiveness enabled him to retain his berth on this year's championship team. ALEX Boro End Wogie was built to be an end in every sense of the word. Frequently the tallest boy on the field, he reached up to bring down many an important pass and proved a really valuable man to have in reserve. WALTER ALSTON End Tall and lanky, Willy was perfectly built for a pass receiver. Coming up as part of the J. V.'s Gammon-to-Alston combination, he continued to snag them and will certainly hold down a Hank position on the '4-2 eleven. the pigskin into pay-dirt to round out a 19-6 victory which left the Tiger sup- porters speculating as to just how long this year-old undefeated record would survive. A.M.A. Succumbs The Tigers apparently upset some- body's dope at Fort Defiance by clown- ing Augusta Military Academy, 14--0, in a game which they dominated through- out. Stephenson gave the ago signal in the initial quarter on a pass intercep- tion. Glascock and Fields used good blocking by their mates to advance to the one-yard stripe, from which point Collins smashed over. Late in the third quarter Moore's fumble recovery on Augusta's 35 set up the second tally. S-s-s-s-s-s-si BOOM ! FRED LOGAN Tackle Graduating from last yearis capable reserves, Fred's improvement was so great that he more than earned his position as first string tackle. Indeed, so outstanding was his play, that Loge was awarded Honorable Mention on the ,42 All-State eleven. BILL COLLINS Back Displaying one of the most explosive charges of the entire squad, Bill's great power made him one of the Tiger's best plunging backs. Footsie could always be counted on for extra yardage. Top: Fields lunges for extra yards against E. H. S. Bottom: Tiger tackles smother Maroon hack. Glascock and Fields again took over, and moments later Jones paved the way for Glascock's five-yard scoring jaunt around end. Robinson provided both extra points on place-kicks. The time element and erratic play against a strange defensive alignment checked three other threatening advances by the Tigers. Fishburne Routed Scoring at will, the Orange and Black converted Hanes Field into a racetrack as it rolled over Fishburne Military School, 51-0, for the first of numerous one-sided scores as yet undreamed of. For almost a quarter the stubborn Cadet defense, backed up by noticeable esprit de corps, rocked the home forces back on their heelsg but suddenly wing-back Hunsucker broke into the open for a 45-yard touchdown spurt which marked the beginning of the rout. Three more tallies followed in short order as Cap- tain Arnold and Collins ftwicel packed J IM GRANBEHY Guard Filling an important slot in the Tigers' forward wall, Jimmy was this year awarded a berth on the mythical All-State eleven. Scrappy and hard-fighting, Dingle often- times stole the show and the ball with his fancy defensive play. BRAINARD WARNER Center Brainard's physical and mental properties combined to make him an outstanding pivot man, offensively and defensively. In the opinion of his coaches he was the best prep center in the state and the best to play at Woodberry in fifteen-odd years. Top: Ward shifts to escape Cavaliers. Bottom: Gammon closes in on Frosh runner. the mall into the soldlers end zone Following the intermission the drive continued with Arnold, Glascock, Alston, and Ward contributing six points each to the Orange and Black total. Victory in Lynchburg Sparked by the passing and kicking of Blair Gammon, Woodberry swept over Johnson Field and Virginia Episco- pal to a 33-0 decision. The Tigers' first goalward surge was checked by a fumble, but they soon came charging back on an inside attack which culmi- nated in Collins' touchdown smash. A long reverse by Hunsucker and a per- fect pass from Gammon to Gilliam pro- duced two additional first-half tallies. Glascock and Alston then collaborated in a series of aerial thrusts which netted a fourth touchdown, while late in the final period Gammon pitched Gilliam another perfect strike, which the latter took on a dead run for the final six points.

Blot on the Record ln late October on Hanes Field Ran- dolph lVIacon's Yellow Jackets smeared the Orange and Blaekls record with an unexpected 7-7 deadlock. At this time no one saw Fortune smiling through the cloudsg but smile it did, for this game exposed the Tigeras defects and thereby gave rise to that powerful offense which so completely blasted apart the big end of the schedule. Yet like many good tonics it tasted bad when swallowed. Hampered by injuries and checked by fine defensive play, the Tigers appeared impotent until Tom Fields, behind good BILL GILLIAM Emi Undoubtedly one of the best ends in the state, both offensively and defensively, Boo- Boo earned the reputation of a hard blocker and a sure pass receiver.

Following this brief offensive exchange neither team threatened. .l on N STOUT Guard Memphis drew the assignment to beat out Jones. Though he didn't quite do the impossible, his spirit and fine defensive play kept Dyke hustling all year, while ,lohn like- wise was becoming a top-flighter himself. Tom Finns Back Hard-driving, eel-hipped, elusive Tom Fields was undoubtedly one of the most colorful backs on the '42 Tiger eleven. This All-State fullback, accounting for innumerable points, was particularly adept at returning punts and broken field running. 103 Impressive Come-Back Logan's recovery of an Irish fumble started the Tigers on their come-back trail, and from that point on the genuine power of the Woodberry eleven began to take definite shape, as Benedictineis tough eleven reeled under a 40-6 drub- bing. On a pretty play Glascoclc cut over the weak side for the opening score. LEROY WARD Back Developing into a fast, lanky tailback, Leroy set up many of the Tigers' scoring drives by his accurate bullet passes. Not a bad kicker, he also had an excellent record for yardage gained, plunging off tackle for many a touchdown. BLAIR GAMMUN Back Utilizing fine poise and timing, Blair became one of the state's finest passers and kickers. Although not a speedster, String Bean could consistenly wriggle his way through the line and make almost flawless use of interference. He is Alternate Captain for '4-3. Top: Frosh defenders check Hunsuck- er's gain. Bottom : Four Junior Cavaliers snare Fields. Following a sustained drive Fields charged over for another shortly before the intermission. Prior to this an lrish surge had been checked in the end-zone by Glascockis pass interception. Behind fine blocking all up and down the line the Tiger backs smashed their way to four second-half tallies, two of which came on breath-taking runs by Hunter and Collins. Benedictine's score came near the close when Stubbs faked a pass and waltzed 35 yards down the sidelines. Saints Overwhelmed Neglecting the airlanes entirely, a primed Orange and Black unleashed a ground attack which dampened the ardour of St. Christopher's Homecoming Day and sent the stunned Richmonders to the showers on the short end of a 32-7 score. Following Whitaker's pass interception, Gammon, Fields, and Clas- cock began moving the chains with regularity behind a forward wall that I1 Q BILL Moomi Guard A hard worker and real scrapper, Bill became the Tigers' versatile twelfth man .

This period also witnessed two more tallies, the first set up by Cilliamss fumble and the second by Fields, 70-yard kick-off return. Though most of the last half was played in Red and Cray territory, Swindell managed to slip a pass to Chewning in the fourth quarter for the Saints, lone score. But undaunted the Tigers came roaring back with two more six-pointers on long runs by Fields and Ward. Friday 13th This day ran true to form as a listless Orange and Black squad downed the University of Virginia 160-pounders, 31-0, and suffered several ominous- looking casualties. After a slow start the home team finally got moving as Fields and Hunsucker sprinted to a trio of touchdowns before the intermission. In the third quarter Collins kept the ball rolling with a 50-yard dash to touch- down, leaving the game immediately with a sprained back. At this point the Woodberry reserves took over and won their laurels on a goalward march which was climaxed by Ward's smash oli- tackle for the final score of the day.

WHESTLI I3 Staff. . . Auf 6blCCe55!l! The 1943 Varsity Wrestling team, led by Co-Captains Bill Arnold and Dyke Jones, enjoyed a short but successful season this winter, win- ning three of their four matches. ln their initial encounter, the eager wrestlers completely blanked an inexperienced A. M. A. Squad, 43-0. Following a return match with Augusta, who again offered little opposition, the Tigers took St. Al- bans in their stride. The only mar upon the Tigers' record came when a strong Mercersburg team journeyed down and took a 15-9 victory, but doubtless the score would have been quite different had injured Co- Captain Arnold been in the line-up. This record, in itself, was quite a compliment to Mr. Mercer and his Captains, who had to take over the coaching duties of Mr. Martin and lVIr. Covington when they left for the Army. 1 Tiger Grapplers Crush A. M. A. The Vlfoodberry matmen commenced their shortened '43 season in line fashion as they shut out the Augusta Military Academy, 43-0. As soon as the match got under way, it was evident that the Foresters were up against inexperi- enced opponents. Ted Brothers started the ball rolling when he pinned Alverez in the first period. He was followed by Loving, who won an easy fall over Field in the 121-lb. class. In the next match Biddle copped a one-sided decision from Kauff- man, gaining two near falls. Ian Mac- conochie showed the advantage of brain over brawn as he threw the captain of A. M. A. in the second period. Although the visiting matmen were possessed with fight and spirit, it was to no avail, for the next four matches were pushovers for the Foresters, each of whom won an easy fall over his opponent. Mercersburg Proves Disastrous Suffering their second defeat in five years, the Tiger grapplers were downed by a powerful Mereersburg squad, 15-9. Handicapped by the loss of Captain Bill Arnold and a lack of experience, the Orange and Black nevertheless put up a good light and pushed the Penn- sylvanians to the last match. The winners took an early lead when Senlwl: Walllianlaker, Montgomery, Riemann, Dyke Jones, Willianls, Hendrcn, Brothers. Standing: Evans, Boyd, Warlier, Moore, Biddle.

Foresters Trounee St. Albatfs in Final Appearance The Tigers had little trouble in down- ing an experienced but outclassed St. Albans seven to the tune of 2014 to Taking an early lead with pins executed by Brothers and Hendren in the 113 and 121-lb. classes, the Foresters estab- lished a lead which was never relin- quished. Loving easily disposed of his opponent in the 128-lb. Class, but Toby Biddle's hard-fought match was de- eisioned in favor of the Washingtonians, 118 captain. ln the 145-lb. class Evans de- cisioned Bell of St. Alban's. Neverthe- less the Saints and the Woodberry mat- men split points as Williams and Winant battled to a close draw in one of the most interesting matches of the day. Since the Saints lacked men for the two heaviest classes, the final bout was in the 165-lb. class, where Boyd racked up point after point to decision his opponent easily. SUMMARY W. F. S.

After capturing two victories from V. E. S. and splitting a pair of games with St. Christophers, the stage was set for a State Champion- ship clash between Woodberry and its traditional rivals, E. H. S., how- ever, had weather intervened and the game could not be played, thus crushing the Tigers' high hopes. Much credit is due to Coach Sam McLaughlin for his untiring efforts in ably filling the shoes of Mr. Covington. Faced with a shortage of experienced players, he built the team around a few returning letter- men. Outstanding among these vet- erans was the catcher and captain of the team, Van Dyke Jones, whose natural ability and never-say-die spirit gave the team confidence when the going was tough. Managers Edwy Lee and Bob Beaslev 120 Foresters Swamp Bishops in Opener Opening the season with a bang. the Tigers crushed VBS. at Lynchhurg by a 17-4 count. Battering three opposing hurlers for twelve hits. the Orange team was never threatened as Kite and Ker- nan held the Bishops to eight safeties. Led hy Captain Jones. who had three hits for five trips, the visitors came through with three runs in the third inning and six more in the sixth. The Bishops lone rally came in the sixth, but Kite promptly squelched it without difficulty. Cadets Administer First Defeat Held in check by a heavy wind and the two-hit pitching of Joe Lenzi, the Tigers were overcome by a strong Staunton Military Academy nine, 10-0, in the second game of the year. Al- though they threatened several times, the Orangemen were never able to tally, while several nliscues aided the Cadet cause.

Freflrickslmrg Cops Victory The Tigers put up a valiant fight but were unable to overtake a heavy lead gained by Fredrieksburg in the early part of the game. Bill White came in after the fourth inning and held the opponents to one hit and one run. ln the first four innings Fredricksburg scored seven tallies while the Foresters were blanked. Unable to settle down in the face of strong opposition, the For- esters scored only twice. At the final tabulation, the Foresters were on the short end of an 8-2 score. Richmonders Bow Traveling to Richmond the Tigers handed the luckless St. Christopher nine a stinging 5-4 defeat. Despite Tinsleys, four-hit pitching, the Orange team com- bined its hits, coupled with several Saint errors, to score all its runs in the fifth and seventh innings. Although the Richmonders put on a four-run rally against the offerings of ,lack Kite in the fifth, Glascock came to the rescue and held them hitless and scoreless for the remainder of the game. Tigers Take Thriller ln one of the most thrilling games of the season the Orange and Black put on a ninth-inning splurge to down a light- Neil sizes up Fork Union pitcher 122 Pink stretches for horsehide ing A. M. A. nine, 8-7. Kite kept the visitors well in hand throughout most of the game, but a seventh-inning rally gave them a two-run lead which they held until the ninth. Hero of the con- test was Alston, whose timely double in the last inning, with two men aboard, sent home the tying and winning runs for the Woodberry team. Tigers Outhit by Saints ln a game in which the lead changed hands several times, the Tigers were beaten by a powerful St. Alban's nine, 8-4. The Orange and Black fought until the final out, with Captain Jones, Gam- mon, and Kernan coming through with 123 timely hits throughout the game. Led by Melton and Trimble, the Saints had one big inning, but they also scored twice in the first two innings and once in the fourth and six, respectively. Stalemate With F. U. M. A. In a game called at the end of ten innings, the Tigers battled the Fork Union Cadets to an 11-11 tie. The teams played on even terms throughout the contest, the lead see-sawing back and forth. Glascock and Kite worked on the mound, holding the visitors in check most of the game, while the Tigers battered two Cadet pitchers for 14- hits. High men at the plate for the home team . in , Alston crosses W'oodberry score-plate were Glascock and Gammon, each col- lecting three hits. Foresters Slaughter R. M. A. Probably playing their best game of the year, the Foresters swamped a high- ranking Randolph-Macon team, 13-0. Bill White pitched a fine game with ex- cellent backing from his teammates, who made only two errors and blasted out 15 hits, five for extra bases. ln the first inning Gammon led off with a triple and scored on Jones' home run. From then on it was a riot with Woodberry scoring in every inning. Gammon, Glascock, and King took all honors at the plate with three hits each. b Bishops Fall Once More The Tigers won their third conference game as they racked up three tallies to shut out V.E.S., 3-0. As a result of a wind the game gradually developed into a pitcher's duel with Glascock giving up only two hits to the visitors, while the Tigers rapped out six singles off Stephenson, the Bishops, south-paw hurler. The only scoring of the day took place in the lucky seventh when the Foresters hunched two safeties to push across three runs. Richmonders Prove Fatal Battling St. Christophefs for the sec- ond time, the Woodberry nine dropped 124- a close 2-0 contest before an enthusiastic home crowd. Jack Glascock pitched a fine live-hit ball game and would have shut out the Saints except for some shoddy fielding in the fourth which gave the Richmonders two unearned runs. In the meantime, Clark Tinsley held the Tigers to five safe hits and allowed only one man to reach third. Neil King led the hitters for the day with a double and a single.

Two previous years as a Varsity trackman and one as a letterman made him an apt choice for the 1943 Track Captain. ALTERNATE-CAPTAIN TOM FIELDS Very nearly a one-man track team Tom often carried the weight of winning whole meets on his shoulders. In high and low hurdles, pole vault, high jump, and broad jump, he could always be depended upon for an array of firsts. TH Eli -'H '-V igera gfaze ianf Gncler jfai Virginia State Champions, co- winners ol' the C Club Meet, and conquerers of Mercersburg. The record, in brief, of VVoodberry's 1943 track team. This year's squad was one of the finest, most well- balanced, and aggressive teams to represent Woodberry Forest in re- cent years. It was purely a product of Mr. Dick's careful planning and ingenuity, to him should go the chief credit for this fine record. The one and only blot on the Tigers' schedule came on May Sth, when a fighting squad lost a close contest to the Hill School of Pennsylvania. However, the following week, the Urange and Black came back to tie for first with Central High in the important HC Club Meet in Wash- ington and definitely established VVoodberry's supremacy in local track circles. With all this, the State Meet should not be forgotten. There, the Foresters scored sixty- two points for an all-time high. Throughout the entire season, Cap- tain Hunter, Alternate-Captain Fields, Frank Enlmert, Bill Arnold, Dick Preyer, and John Hart, were the boys who led the Tiger attack.

V ,,'..:?1 Wt' M ,J ' i 127 OH' to a Good Start Without the services of Bill Bulling- ton, Don Scott, and Captain Hunter for the first track meet of the season, the Tiger cindermen took the field on a cold, windy day, decidedly the underdogs. But the results of the day sent a defeated Thomas Jefferson High School back to Richmond. High-scorer of the day was Alternate-Captain Tom Fields, who gar- nered a grand total of 19 points with wins in the high jump, high and low hurdles, and a tie for first in the pole vault. Preyer, runner-up in scoring honors, walked away with the dashes, Emmert easily carried the mile, and George Duncan came through with a last-minute sprint to take the twice- around. In the weights, Arnold and Hart captured valuable points and rounded out what looked to be another potential State Championship Team. Woorlherry Overrides Cadets In the second meet of the season the Woodberry Forest trackmen defeated Fishburne and Fork Union by an over- whelming margin. The Tiger cinder- men garnered 106 points to Fishburne's 31 and Fork Unionis 6. Alternate- Captain Tom Fields captured the scor- ing honors with 171f3 points, winning high jump and high hurdles and tying for first in the pole vault and low hurdles. Captain Hunter, running for the first time this season, tied with Preyer for first in the 100-yard dash. The victorious Tigers made a clean Coyle carries pole in State Meet i 128 4.- Fields threatens Simmons, lead sweep of the shot put, the 220, the high and low hurdles, and took the following firsts: Arnold, the shot put, Peyton, the discusg George Duncan, the 8805 and George Coyle, the 4-40. Despite the recent illnesses of Captain Hunter and distance man Bill Bullington, the Tigers gave a splendid account of themselves in their second showing of the season. Tigers Avenge '42 Defeat In a hotly-contested meet on Hanes Field, Woodberry barely remained in the undefeated ranks when it downed a strong Mercersburg team, 62-55. The victory, undecided until after the last event, furnished valuable experience to new squad members and enabled Mr. 129 Dick to uncover a unaturalw. When everything hinged on the last even, the broad jump, Bill Collins, borrowed from the baseball team, was one of the win- ning factors in the meet with a third in this event. With 23 points garnered in the hurdles, pole vault, high jump, and broad jump, Tom Fields emerged high scorer of the day. With a total of five firsts to six for the opponents, the For- esters were forced to rely on seconds and thirds for their victory. In the most thrilling race of the day, Emmert succumbed to Bauman of Mercersburg in the mile. Captain Hunter, in his first 4-4-0 of the season, ran a beautiful race, winning with a terrific spirit in the very good time of 52.8. Mohler steps over a high one Tigers Swamp Yellow Jackets Coming down from Front Royal, Randolph-Macon Academy fell an easy prey to an already well-developed Forest track team by the score of 7996-3815. The Tigers swept the 440 and low hurdles, taking ten of the thirteen first places. Bill Bullington, in the absence of Captain Hunter and George Coyle, easily won the 440. Preyer took both sprints and tied with Emmert, who won the 880 and the mile, for high-point honors of the day. Alternate-Captain Fields, because of a hand injury, was unable to participate in any events ex- cept the high hurdles, which he won, and the high jump, in which he suc- cumbed to Jones of R.M.A. for a second. Other firsts were Arnold in the shot, Hart in the javelin, Jordan in the pole vault, and Tom Hardy in the low hurdles. Forestmen Edge Threatening Rivals Despite the efforts of Cadet Chuck Simmons, who scored 27 of his teamis point total, the Tiger cindermen fought off Staunton Military Academy's bid and maintained its undefeated record with a 64-53 triumph. With the first places divided six to five in the Orange and Blackis favor, the meet reached the last two events with the visitors still in position to sew up the contest. How- ever, a first and second by Collins and Fields in the broad jump and Hart's third in the javelin offset Simmons, and 130 Dominick's one-two in the latter event and erased the Cadets, chances. Double victories were scored for the winners by Preyer in the century and furlong, and Emmert in the mile and half, while Fields topped the Woodberry scorers with HM points. Champions Again After pointing for the State meet through most of the season, Mr. Dick took his squad to Charlottesville and came home with Woodberry's fifth championship. Establishing a record for number of points scored with 62, the Foresters hit their prime and easily coasted to victory, opposed mainly by Stauntons' Simmons, who personally scored 24 points. Tom Fields didn't do so badly for the champs, as he brought back 14-. Six firsts and a tie were registered by the Foresters with Preyer turning in a double win in the dashes and Arnold and Emmert accounting for two other five pointers. ln the feature event of the contest, Capt. Hunter brought home the mile relay baton ahead of Episcopalls Dodson and missed the record by a fraction. All in all the day was highly successful as the teams finished in order: W.F.S., 62g S.M.A., 49g V.E.S., and E.H.S., 18 each, and Hargrave 6. Blemish on the Record It couldnit last forever, and May 8th definitely wasn't VVoodberry's day to win. ln a meet where three new records were set and one tied, the Tigers lost to Hill School, 47LfQ-64lfQ, while Episcopal Emmert strides through in State Meet 131 Fields leaps for handkerchief was third with 31 points. Two of the teanfs youngest members turned in fine performances: Preyer picked up eight points in the dashes, while Jordan won the pole vault. Capt. Hunter tasted revenge as he defeated Dodson in the quarter. Suffering from a bad back, Tom Fields stayed in to lead the Tigers again with 1015 points. With Berne of Hill setting a new shot record, Bill Arnold turned in his best heave of the year as he was beaten by inches. Tie for First At C Club Journeying with only a few men to Washington, the Virginia State Cham- pions had to content themselves with a tie for first with Central High School of Washington, both finishing with 24 points. Trailing by four points until the last event, the mile relay, the For- esters came through with flying colors to win and tie Central, who could at best take but a fourth. Captain Hunter brought to a smashing climax his track career at Woodberry by winning the 4-40 and insuring a first in the mile relay by running a beautiful race as anchor man. Preyer, Woodberry's sprint man, gar- nered five points with a third place in the 100 and a second place in the 220. Arnold and Hart took first and second, respctively, in the shot, which with a fourth in the broad jump by Alternate- Captain Fields, comprised the remaining points. Bishops Fall In the last meet of the season, using for most of their team the returning 132 members of the Varsity, the Woodberry cindermen defeated V.E.S., 64-53. The visitors' team was centered around Trentham in the field and Alexander in the running events. High scoring honors of the meet went to the former with 15 points. Next, with 1215 points, was W'oodberry's Alternate-Captain, Tom Fields, who won both hurdles and tied with Jordan for second place in the pole vault. Preyer took a pair of Hrsts in the 100 and 220-yard dash. The Tigers swept the 880 with Emmett, Belser, and George Duncan in one-two-three order and carried the first two places in the shot on the heaves of Hart and Arnold, who with Peyton in the discus and Warner in the javelin. had been out- standing throughout the year. In the high jump Dan Mohler, followed by Pete Duncan. was edged out by Trentham of V.Fl.S. SUMMARY Opponent W. F. S. 73l4g ....i,..,. Thomas Jefferson ...... . 4-626 106 ...... .,,.

This change was brought about because the coaches felt that the younger boys should have more oppor- tunity to play eleven-man football in order to prepare them for services on .l. V. and Varsity teams. Under the new setup the Mitcs and Midgets were combined and Mr. Barr became coach of the new Midget team. Captained by Brothers and McDonald, the team made rapid progress. VARSITY RESERVES lluder the able coaching of Mr. Martin, the Varsity Reserves gradually developed into a well-rounded, smooth-running outfit which, after playing its own games on Fridays, came out to back up the Varsity the next day. Captained by John Merritt, the team progressed throughout the season, taking games from Orange, Shenandoah, and the Jayvees, while losing one closely- fought contest to a strong Miller School squad. Those who deserve credit for their outstanding work are King, Weinig, Hussey, and Norton. JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL Coached this year by Mr. Mar, the 1943 .lunior Varsity Reserves offered still resistance and showed that next year many members of the squad would till valu- able positions in next year's Varsity. Among the many new prospects uncovered by the .layvce were .lack Rixey, Bill Sea- man. Scovell Martin, St. John Bain, .lim Ten Broeck, and Norman Hornsby. RIFLE TEAM With the failure to return of so many important Inarksmen the Rifle Team this year relied heavily on new material to fill the gaps. Among those returning were Warren Ficklen and C0-Captains Curtis Lewis and Bill Hopkins. Members drawn from the new boys included Beverly Mun- ford, Tom Bryan, and Gordon Watt. Capably coached by Mr. Barnett, the team was able to compete in only two outside matches-with Fork Union and Staunton- both of which contests were lost.

It is the memory of these delectable trifles which will keep alive in you the spirit so peculiarly Woodberry's.

Later Mouse and Katsy learned of their fatal mistake. Scampering to our humble hospital, they flung themselves on the clean floor with fear in their eyes and foam at their mouths. The nurse took pity on them and proceeded to administer the antidote. After swallowing 117 tubfuls of mustard water. the two beasts bounced their bonbons. ln a week or so Mouse and Ratsy regained their strength, and are again reported on the prowl.

Life being unable to attend, your DOVE reporter readily volunteered and made. under the circumstances, an amazing num- ber of observations. Figuratively speaking, Wash- ington's Blue Book was hurled at the Taylor residence along with many members of swank Woodberry Forest School. Among the more prominent members of the latter were: Chatfield him- self, social piston of the Dlf. area: George Duncan, famous half-milerg George Kernan. in- ternationally known non-conform- ist. unaccompanied by his ath- letic cohort, Tom Fieldsg .lim Granbery.

Conspicuous for his absence was Hardy Hendren, chain smoker. Contrary to his momentous plans, Dan Weinig lulled his date to sleep with a lengthy discourse on The Future of the Eskimo in North America. Long after the crowd was wending its way homeward, George Duncan remained in a corner wrapped in his morning paper. THE DAILY DOPE THE DAILY DOPE Expurgated Edition Publisher - - Rath. R. Laight Editor - - - Lotta Compost Assoc. Editor - - - Eff .lay Gag-Man ------ Tojo ..T0 EDITORIAL Unmolested for over two terms, the Cloud Factory, giddy with its new-found freedom, again found itself under the heel of judicial oppression when its members were discovered en- veloped in smoke during for- bidden hours. Some twenty-odd offenders were draped about the room con- tributing to a general bull ses- sion when steps were heard on the stairs above. Panic and a phantom-like disappearance were followed by a slight creaking as the door opened slowly. To the timid smoker who poked his head into the room nothing seemed amiss. Of course, the room was a little hazy for that time of day, but. then too, the windows probably hadn't been opened. He wondered, also, what careless lads had left their coats lying around. He entered, pulled out his pack, and flopped into one of the big red-leather chairs. A head popped up almost at his handg another, almost miraculously, appeared beneath his feet. ln a moment twenty ashen faces were staring at him from behind chairs, ash-trays, card tables, and the divan. When all had recovered their weeds and composure, the party re- sumed its liveliness, and deter- mined footsteps were this time attributed to a fellow member. Unfortunately, the ensuing knock at the door was not Weinig be- ing funnyf' but rather a master being quite serious. Now, our smokers catch them where they can during the for- bidden hours, and there are still those who shudder at the slam- ming of a car door.

Intent upon dampen- ing the spirits of the boys on the floor below, he filled a waste- basket to the brim with water. On the return, however, Toto slipped and landed with a thun- dering splash in the middle of the corridor.

MOHLER HONORED A medal for the greatest scien- tific achievement of the year was recently awarded to Professor Danny Mohler, muscular resident of Turner Hall and son of a popular Woodberry barber. While conducting an experiment in the Chemistry Lab., Professor Mohler accidentally spilled some nitric acid on his bare skin, and at- tempted to neutralize the acid with that powerful reagent, hydro- chloric acid. Mr. Saxton's only comment was: You all behave like a bunch of co-eds, a bunch of co-eds, a bunch of co-eds. .-l0 It's no use, smokers. They'll get you in the end. WITH FLUID DRIVE?

ACCORDING TO CULBERTSON SCENE: A large room bitterly cold and filled with smoke. From somewhere inside a vic is scratching out Why Don't You Do Right? fortissimo. In one corner the smoke clears enough to reveal a bridge game in which Moosh Moore and Blackwood Weinig are playing against Julian Sprague and Curveball Kernan. MOORE: Deal, Sprague. lSprague must have thought be said misdeal, for be scatters the cards out over the table at random. Eventually he sees one be likes so he grabs it.J MOORE: Oh, come on, Sprague, don't deal like that. I-i-it's unsportsmanlike. KERNAN: How are yab, Julian? Tbat's Julian, you all know him, Julian F. Sprague. lSprague looks at his hand. It's a coke.l SPRAGUE: Misdeal. Throw in. tAnd be tosses his cards onto the table.i WEINIC: Oh, I can't play bridge with you, Sprague, I quit. SPRAGUE: Just because you're editor of the skiss sheet you don't have to act so superior. WEINIG: It's hard work putting out the Oracle. SPRAGUE: Hard work! Why between Mrs. Taylor and the United States Treasury you could get enough to fill a hundred Oracles. KERNAN: That Dan Weinig's a devil, I tell you.

SPRAGUE: Pass-unconventional. MOORE: One diamond. You know what that means in response to a conventional club, don't you? KERNAN: I don't know what you boys are going to do, but I'm going to pass. WEINIG: Certainly I know what it means. Four notrump. IContinu.cd on Page 81 FOREST FINDS MAESTRO IN MIDST Mourning the loss of its great drummer and music critic, Gardi l Buckteeth J Bradshaw, Wood- berry has found some small de- gree of recompense in its new prodigy, Gimme - Two - Weeks Tinsley. Rising from obscurity, less than three days after his arrival, Tinsley let it be known that he was a master of the clarinet, bassinet, oboe, piccolo, cello, banjo, trombone, saxophone, xylo- phone, mellophone, bass horn, French horn, greenhorn, his own born, .Iew's harp, windpipe, blow- pipe, bag-pipe, flute, bassoon, tuba, bazooka, etc. Bashfully, be admitted to your DOPE reporter that with two weeks he could play any wind- instrument ever made, but be- cause of this same shy modesty, no one has ever been able to persuade him to do this. Never- theless, he has been caught off guard once or twice during his creative rendition of Tangerine This young artist, with fully two years ahead of him at Wioodberry Forest, will no doubt make a place for himself as a varsity baseball star and a Bradshaw substitute, once he has overcome his characteristic backwardness.

Miss Ware, who is affectionately known as Queerqueer to all her friends, was dressed in a stunning outht of rubber sandals and overall pants. At the insistence of all her admirers, particularly the Smoke House boys, who merely rode her on a broomstick, Miss Ware delighted the guests with her rendition of the Bronx tango. Among the many presents she received were a special mixture of corn silks and coffee grounds to smoke in her pipe fMiss Ware finds cigarettes distasteful! and an interesting book on Politics Made Easy. Immediately after the ball, Miss Ware, slightly in- ebriated from Coca-Colas, left to take her physical examination for the WAACS. .l -0 STONE QWith apologies to Carl Sandburg?

To Mr. Joe Mercer for his patience and skill as an adviser in technical matters, and in particular for his supervision of the Sports Sections. To Mr. Barr for his excellent cartoons and end papers. To Tom Brown for much of the photography. To Bynum Hunter for his help in handling the advertising. To Bob Heins, Dan Weinig, Bill Bussey, Alex Boyd, and Pink Rankin for their help in editing the various sections of the book. To Watt Dunnington for his management of financial affairs. To Jimmie Love for his capable supervision of typing. And, to Frank Sprague, Bob Bussey, Dan Mohler, Ben FitzHugh, Dick Fox, Charlie Thompson, Ed. Wilson, Stuart Atha, Rabbi Merritt, Lee Payne, Jim Courtenay, and the many others who ran errands, gave suggestions, swept, typed, cut, wrote, drew, and offered gratuitous remarks, without the help of which the 194-3 FIR TREE might never have appeared. A FINAL Wllllll War demands the curtailment of many luxuries, among which FIR TREES may very likely be counted. Already there have been rumors of a possible cancellation of the yearbook next year. It is the earnest hope of the Editor that, although its expenditures may be limited, that THE FIR TREE will not cease to appear, for it is an inherent part of Woodberry's traditions as black ties and white flags. ., '...'
