----~-.~ ·------------------------Each boy has something which he may c10.d to the life of a school community such as ours. As we go dm-m the list, we find that some sort of a vivid picture comes into our mj_nds - some contri.bution Oil'.' quality which we · shall attempt to set down hore - not in cJny sense an award, but perhaps an editorial cqmrnendation or remembrance and so that everyone may say, w:ith pride and honesty, "I APPEARED_ IN PRINT". TREY AIB'1STRONG is a. quiet but avid record fan, as his next-door neighbor can attest; JEFF' BRAY is a {?;reat collecter, everything from cere al boxes to le-ad; MIKE BERRY, the gourmet of the group, is our greatest eater; MIKE CAFFREY holds the record as the first student to come to handcraft and ask for a garrison belt kit; BOBBY COCI.-IRMIE holds the record for twilight :root beer consumption; HIY,E CONAN holds the summer downhill record for the "professional slope'' at Sunapee State fork; SAM CONl-v'ELL, as a rifleman, holds the distinction of possessing r1 11 Manuel orig j_nal 11 ; CHARLIE DARLII~TOH has been a willing clrnf on all trips; HARVEY DELSON probably holds the record for the longest composition. of the s1.,1 : mE:r - about a dozen pages, hand printed; DANA EDDY has the quality to hold many fri onds; STUART EDT.lY has undoubtedly the most original (and fati[-;ued) headc ear; JTI-iMY EISENBERG has perhaps learned to eat more different foods this summer and still smile; Tersh Everest has evoked the most conm1ent for a nickname ( 11 Tertius 11 meaning "the thkd"); Don Fischer, with us for but a month, gets a vote for being fully 11 in the swim" within ll c cuple of days; Ricky Fisher has become a budding badminton player, out every fre e moment; Bill Garcelon, always dapper, wins a vote for faithful female correspondence, and one which he must share, wo· s1Jpp ose, with BILLY PEZZHLLI; STUAB.T GILLESPIE receives admiration for his boat and appreciation for playine; the organ at Vespers; FRED HAMILTON seems to have shared in practically every activity,-- as has BANK LCUTEMAI\T; Marc Hc1.rris is lmmm for his infectious laugh, as ;Ls KIT RICE; and also JERE SUI.LIVAN; JEFF HARRIS will be remembered for his many helps, as wiJ.1 DONALD ROY and fisherman Seth 1rvesson; CARTER IIBEZER pos-;sibly holds the record for mail, 1 tho JOEN TREADWAY made out well on his recent bj,_rthday; PETE MENDLESON wins in the infectious smiles dept., sharing honors with FF.ANK }HLLEH; JOHN PERh IN takes honors for misaddressing envelopes; JOHN ROSS runs away with honors for his imitations ("It's o.K? o. K, 11 ) FRANK SHARPE speaks for himself, from a brief ren dins of the softball article_; MIDY VALLON wins honors as battery yaughtsman and "shrillest voice in the corridor". 1
