1964 - St. Martin's Episcopal School Yearbook

The Old Grey Donke y, Eeyore, stood by himself in a thistly corner of the forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" - and sometimes he didn't quite know what he thinking about. So when Winnie-the-Pooh came stumping fttmg,. f:eyore was very glad to be able to stop thinJiing for a little, in order to say "How do you do?" in a gloomy manner to him.

"And how are you?" said Winnie-thePooh.

"Not very how," he said. "I' don't seem to have felt at all how for a long time."

"Dear, dear," said Pooh, "I'm sorry about that. Let's have a look at you."

So Eeyore stood there, gazing sadly at the ground, and Winnie-the-Pooh walked all round him once.

"Why, what' s happened to your tail? " he said in surprise.

"What~ happened to it? " said Eeyore.

"It isn't there!"

"Are you sure?"

"Well, either a tailj,tthere or it isn't there. You can't make a mistake about it. And yours ll!W.,there ! "

"That Accounts for a Good Deal," said Eeyore gloomily. "It Explains Everythi ng. No Wonder."

"You must have left it somewhere," said Winnie -the-Pooh.

"Somebody must have taken it," said Eeyore. "How Like Them," he added , aft(;),[ a long silence.

"Eeyore," he said solemnly, "I, Winniethe -Pooh, will find your tail for you. "

"Thank you, Pooh, " answered Eeyore. "You 're a real friend," said he. "Not like Some, " he said.

So Winnie-the-Pooh went off to find Eeyore's tail.

"If anyone knows anything about anything," said Bear to himself, "it's Owl who knows something about something," he said.

"Hallo, Pooh," Owl said. "How's things?"

"Terrible and Sad," said Pooh, "because Eeyore, who is a friend of mine, has lost his tail. And he's Moping about it. So could you very kindly tell me how to find it for him?"

"Well," said Owl, "the customary pro-

cedure in such cases is as follows. "

"What does Crustimoney Proseedcake mean?" said Pooh. "For I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and long words Bother me "

"It means the Thing to Do. "

"As long as it means that, I don't mind," said Pooh humbly.

"The thing to do is as follows. First, Issue a Reward. Then - -"

"Just a moment, " said Pooh, holding up his paw. "~ do we do to this - what you were saying? You sneezed just as you were going to tell me."

"I ~sneeze."

"Yes, you did, Owl."

"Excuse me, Pooh, I didn't. You can't sneeze without knowing it. "

"Well, you can 't know it without something having been sneezed. "

"What I~ was, 'First~a Reward.'"

"You're doing it again," said Pooh sadly.

"A Reward!" said Owl very loudly. "We write a notice to say that we will give a large something to anybody who finds Eeyore's tail."

"I see, I see," said Pooh, nodding his head.

And Pooh looked at the knocker and the notice below it, and he looked at the bellrope and the notice below it, and the more he looked at the bell-rope, the more he felt that he had seen something like it, somewhere else, sometime before.

"Handsome bell-rope, isn't it?" said Owl.

Pooh nodded.

"It reminds me of something," he said, "but I can't think what. Where did you get it?"

"I just came across it in the Forest. It was hanging over a bush, and I thought at first somebody lived there, so I rang it, and nothing happened, and then I rang it again very loudly, and it came off in my hand, and as nobody seemed to want it, I took it home, and - -"

"Owl," said Pooh solemnly, "you made a mistake. Somebody did want it. "

"Who?"

"Eeyore. My dear friend Eeyore. He was - he was fond of it."

"Fond of it?"

"Attached to it," said Winnie-the-Pooh sadly.

So with these words he unhooked it, and carried it back to Eeyore; and when Christopher Robin had nailed it on in its right place again, Eeyore frisked about the forest, waving his tail so happily that Winnie-thePooh came over all funny. and had to hurry home for a little snack of something to sustain him. And, wiping his mouth half an hour afterwards, he sang to himself proud~y:

Who found the Tail?

"I" said Pooh, "At a quarter to two (Only it was quarter to eleven really), I found the Tail! "

Campus on game day

My campus - What memories and images these two words recall: the bell tower and the bell which twice has come plunging down from its lofty position, the pleasant lunch periods spent in the shade of our hardy raintrees, the day that the moonflower vine invaded the Senior patio, the first game on our football field, or the Junior-Senior Prom

Cafeteria and Maintenance Building

with the gymnasium appearing unbelievably attractive. For the gr aduating senior, the memories of campus life at St. Martin's will fade. Past experiences will no longer be a part of his immediate life; instead, they will become the foundation of the future.

( t rained and it rained and it rained. Piglet told himself that never in all his life, and was goodness knows~ old - three, was it, or four? - never had he seen so much rain. Days and days and days.

"It's a little Anxious," he said to himself, "to be a Very Small Animal Entirely Surrounded by Water. "

Then suddenly he remembered a story which Christopher Robin had told him about a man on a desert island who had written something in a bottle and thrown it in the sea; and Piglet thought that if he wrote something in a bottle and threw it in the water, perhaps somebody would come and rescue him!

When the rain began Pooh was asleep. He was dreaming. Suddenly he woke up with an Qtl and there he was, sitting in his chair with his feet in the water, and water all round him!

"This is Serious," said Pooh. "I must have an Escape. "

So he took his largest pot of honey and escaped with it to a broad branch of his tree, well above the water, and then he climbed down again and escaped with another pot and when the whole Escape was finished, there was Pooh sitting on his branch, dangling his legs, and there, beside him, were ten pots of honey . . .

Four days later, there was Pooh . . . 1

And it was on the morning of the fourth day that Piglet's bottle came floating past him, and with one loud cry of "Honey!" Pooh plunged into the water, seized the bottle, and struggled back to his tree again.

"Bother!" said Pooh, as he opened it. "All that wet for nothing. What's that bit of- paper doing?"

Then he had an idea, and I think that for a Bear of Very Little Brain, it was a good idea. He said to himself:

"If a bottle can float, then a jar can float, and if a jar floats, I can sit on the top of it, if it's a very big jar."

Every morning Christopher Robin went out with his umbrella and put a stick in the place where the water came up to.

It was on this morning that Owl came flying over the water to say "How do you do," to his friend Christopher Robin.

"Have you seen Pooh?"

"No. At any moment - -"

"Do go and see, Owl. Because Pooh hasn't got very much brain, and he might do something silly.

In a little while Owl was back again.

"Pooh isn't there," he said.

"Oh, Pooh!" cried Christopher Robin. "Where ~you?"

"Here I am," said a growly voice behind him.

With these proud words he gave Christopher Robin the message.

"But it's from Piglet!" cried Christopher Robin when he had read it.

"We must rescue him at once l"

"We might go in your umbrella," said Pooh.

You can imagine Piglet's joy when at last the ship came in sight of him. In after-years he liked to think that he had been in Very Great Danger during the Terrible Flood, but the only danger he had really been in was in the last half-hour of his imprisonment, when Owl, who had just flown up, told him a very long story about an aunt who had once laid a seagull's egg by mistake, and the story went on and on, rather like this sentence,,. until Piglet went to sleep quietly and naturally, slipping slowly out of the window, at which moment luckily, a sudden loud squawk from Owl, which was really part of the story, being what his aunt said, woke the Piglet up and just gave him time to jerk himself back into safety and say, "How interesting, and did she?" when - well, you can imagine his joy when at last he saw the good ship, The Brain of Pooh (Captain, C. Robin; 1st Mate, P. Bear) coming over the sea to rescue him.

The current school year, which has been so ably portrayed by the SHIELD staff in the pages of this annual, is particularly memorable because on October 11, 1963, St. Martin's was officially made a diocesan school. This action was brought about when the rector and vestry of St. Martin's Church, with the concurrence of the parishioners, decided after long and careful consideration, that the long range welfare of the school would best be served under diocesan ownership. Becoming convinced of this, St. Martin's Church donated the school, its properties and facilities to the Episcopal. Diocese of Louisiana.

The Right Reverend Girault M. Jones, bishop of Louisiana, has pointed out that this is the largest gift ever made to the diocese. However, this is not the factor of greatest significance. Those of us well acquainted with the history of our school recount only too well the almost insurmountable obstacles and frustrations St. Martin's Church encountered and the prodigious amount of effort that was expended to make St. Martin's School a successful reality. In view of this we must be ever mindful that this generous act is far more than a gift of land and buildings. It represents the aspirations and "the blood, sweat

and tears" f . 0 literal! h people. Y undreds of ded1cated h

"W here are we going?" said Pooh, hurrying after him, and wondering whether it was to be an Explore or a What-shall-I-do-about-you-know-what.

"Nowhere," said Christopher Robin.

So they began going there, and after they had walked a little way Christopher Robin said:

"What do you like doing best in the world, Pooh?"

"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best--" and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called. And then he thought that being with Christopher Robin was a very good thing to do, and having Piglet near was a very friendly thing to have; and so, when he had thought it all out, he said, "What I like best in the whole world is Me and Piglet going to see You, and You saying 'What about a little something?' and Me saying, 'Well, I shouldn't mind a little something, should you, Piglet,' and it being a hummy sort of day outside, and birds singing."

"I like that too," said Christopher Robin, "but what I like doing best is Nothing."

"How do you do Nothing?" asked Pooh, after he had wondered for a long time.

"Well, it's when people call out at you just as you're going off to do it, 'What are you going to do, Christopher Robin,' and you say, 'Oh, nothing, and then you go and do it."

"Oh, I see," said Pooh.

"This is a nothing sort of thing that we're doing now."

"Oh, I see," said Pooh again.

"It means just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering."

"Oh! " said Pooh.

They walked on, thinking of This and That, and by-and-by they came to an enchanted place on the very top of the Forest called Galleons Lap, which is sixty-something trees in a circle; and Christopher Robin knew that it was enchanted because nobody had ever been able to count whether it was sixty-three or sixty-four, not even when he tied a piece of string round each tree after he had counted it. Being enchanted, its floof was not like the floor of the Forest, gorse and bracken and heather, but close-set grass, quiet and smooth and green. It was the only place in the Forest where you could sit down carelessly, without getting up again almost at once and looking for somewhere else. Sitting there they could see the whole world spread out until it reached the sky, and whatever there was all the world over was with them in Galleons Lap.

Suddenly Christopher Robin began to tell Pooh about some of the things: People called Kings and Queens and something called Factors, and a place called Europe, and an island in the middle of the sea where no ships came, and how you make a Suction Pump (if you want to), and when Knights were Knighted, and what comes from Brazil. And Pooh, his back against one of the sixty-something trees, and his paws folded in front of him, said "Oh!" and "I didn't know," and thought how wonderful it would be to have a Real Brain which could tell you things. And by-and-by Christopher Robin came to an end of the things, and was silent, and he sat there looking out over the world, and wishing it wouldn't stop.

But Pooh was thinking too, and he said suddenly to Christopher Robin:

"Is it a very Grand thing to be a Knight?"

"Well, it's not as grand as a King," said Christopher Robin, and then, as Pooh seemed disappointed, he added quickly, "but it's grander that Factors."

"Could a Bear be one?"

"Of course he could I" said Christopher Robin. "I'll make you one." And he took a stick and touched Pooh on the shoulder, and said, "Rise, Sir Pooh de Bear, most faithful of all my Knights."

A Christian school is above all else an educational institution. Its chief function is to teach. The classroom is at the heart of the School. The Christian school must find there in the classroom, in the very process of teaching, its real justification and its only excuse for being. Unless there is something uniquely Christian in the very educational processes in the classroom then extracurricular religious services will not make a school Christian. Unless there is a significant and substantial difference in the instruction given in a Christian School from the instruction given in a secular school, then the Christian school hardly justifies the effort and money it takes to sustain it.

That difference can be expressed in many ways. Perhaps this will help point to it: There is no miracle more needed in our world toda y than the miracle of a brother!y common -life, steadied and directed by truth and faith, encouraged by hope and joy and united in love. The qualities of sympathy, kindliness, charity and compassion which make life bearable and fulfilling can be a part of our school life. Education can do much in helping students develop these spiritual qualities and this can be done in the context of first rate academic preparation. This is what we hope and pray that St. Martin's will increasingly be.

The greatest contribution a school can make to the world is in what it can be in its own life and in what it can help its students to be as they go out into the world.

Our life can call forth from each of us the best that we can offer in mind and heart. As teachers and as students we should be deepening and enlarging our concepts of truth, we can grow in our capacity to care for and communicate with other human beings. We can increase our ability to speak and act responsibly in our lives.

A Christian school through its educational process can open us to change, free us from fear and from mental and spiritual laziness so that our lives can be expressed more creatively and meaningfully.

Let us reflect in the life and thought of our school community a respect for the dignity and value of all men regardless of differences in color, race, and creed.

Let us reflect in our school community a reverence for life, a respect and care for the universe, a thankfulness and a strong hope in this dying world. We can increase our readiness to share the good things of life with others, our sense of stewardship of time, money, and talent which are gladly offered in the service of our fellowmen.

We can be men and women who have the courage of our convictions - who with an open mind and lov ing heart desire to be good for something as well as good at something.

Importantly, we can be humans who cherish intellectual integrity, who honor truth above expediency, and self-respect above partyism or social conformity - who work for a wholeness, a soundness, a genuineness of mind, body, and spirit which reflects the beauty and the integrity of the deep and wonderful order of God's world.

VJ innie-the-Pooh woke up suddenly in the middle of the night and listened. Then he got out of bed, and lit his candle, and stumped across the room to see if anybody was trying to get into his honey-cupboard, and they weren't, so he stumped back again, blew out his candle, and got into bed. Then he heard the noise again.

"Worraworraworraworraworra," said Whatever-it-was, and Pooh found that he wasn't asleep after all. He got out of bed and opened his front door.

Whatever-it-was came here, and in the light of the candle he and Pooh looked at each other.

"I'm Pooh," said Pooh.

"I'm Tigger," said Tigger.

"Well," said Pooh, "It's the middle of the night, which is a good time for going to sleep. And tomorrow morning we'll have some honey for breakfast. Do Tiggers like honey?"

"They like everything," said Tigger cheerfully.

When he awoke in the morning, the first thing he was was Tigger, sitting in front of the glass and looking at himself.

Pooh put the cloth on the table, and he put a large honey-pot on the cloth, and they sat down to breakfast. And as soon as they sat down, Tigger took a large mouthful of honey and then he said in a very decided voice:

"Tiggers don't like honey."

"Oh I" said Pooh, and tried to make it sound Sad and Regretful. "I thought they liked everything."

"Everything except honey," said Tigger.

Pooh felt rather pleased about this, and said that, as soon as he had finished his own breakfast, he would take Tigger round to Piglet's house, and Tigger could try some of Piglet's haycorns.

"Thank you, Pooh," said Tigger, "because haycorns is really what Tiggers like best. "

So by and by they knocked at the door of Piglet's house.

"Hallo, Pooh," said Piglet.

"Hallo, Piglet, This is Tigger," said Pooh. "They like haycorns, so that's what we' ve come for, because poor Tigger hasn't had any breakfast yet."

Piglet pushed the bowl of haycorns towards Tigger, and said: "Help yourself," and then he got close up to Pooh and felt much braver, and said, "So, you're Tigger? Well, well!" in a careless sort of voice. But Tigger said nothing because his mouth was full of haycorns

"Tiggers don't like haycorns."

"But you said they liked everything except honey," said Pooh

"Everything except honey and haycorns," explained Tigger.

"What are we going to do?" he asked Piglet. ·

Piglet knew the answer to that, and he said at once that they must go and see Christopher Robin.

"You'll find him with Kanga," said Eeyore.

So they went to Kanga's house and when Roo had said, "Hallo, Pooh," and "Hallo, Piglet" once, and "Hallo, Tigger" twice, because he had never said it before and it sounded funn y, they told Kanga what they wanted, and Kanga said very kindly, "Well, look in my cupboard, Tigger dear, and see what you'd like."

"He's taken my medicine, he's taken my medicine, he's taken my medicine! " sang Roo happily, thinking it was a tremendous joke.

"So that's what Tiggers like!"

Which explains why he always lived at Kanga's house afterwards , and had Extract of Malt for breakfast, dinner, and tea. And sometimes, he had a spoonful or two of Roo's breakfast as medicine.

cautiously entered the "rat race" but was immediately introduced to high school social life through Freshman Dance #1. An elegant dessert party given before the dance contrasted with the stark jungle realism of Big Joe and His Apes; the result was a night that few members of the class will be able to forget.

More excitement followed almost immediately: the "Fire Ant Experiment" in second period biology revealed to both the students and the teacher why the creatures received this name. Fortunately, Christmas vacation was near; excitement over this incident was subordinated to wholehearted, but mistake-filled participation in the Christmas program.

The following spring, the freshmen presented their own dance: A Night in the French Quarter (without Big Joe). Final exams reminded us that high school demands more than the ability to present dances; but, at least, we were no longer on the bottom rung of the ladder.

The class began its Sophomore year with the paper drive, which resulted in strained muscles, overloaded cars, and fire hazards in paper-filled garages. However, the inconveniences were offset by the general class avarice. Our lives were filled with new ideas_and varsity sports; we "drilled" daily in army strategy and tactics with the Colonel. Familiarity with Edith Hamilton's description of Athenian despots and an understanding of human weaknesses, which we gained from our religious studies, prepared the class to take over during the following year.

During the Junior year, "Dear Hearts" were introduced to even harder

work but, at least for the males, this was offset by the fact that the ratio of girls to boys in the senior class was 2 to 1, Consequently, the demand for male "Dear Hearts" to attend seniors' parties and graduation was extraordinaryJ

The rummage sale was held at 2620 Melpomene, an unforgettable address! Once again, overloaded garages presented a fire hazard; but the sale netted a profit of $550. Later, after several bomb scares, some Juniors produced a few unprecedented explosions of their own - in the chemistry lab and elsewhere.

Then, after months of waiting, came the Junior-Senior Prom: Alice in Wonderland. With amazing class unity and energy, the majority of the decorating was completed on Fridayonly to have one of the trees in the "Rose Forest" fall on several unwary juniors. With baling wire and leaves, the scene was reconstructed; and on Saturday night the seniors were treated to a spectacular prom.

The Senior year began with confusion and Confucius; during the year, the seniors learned to be "civilized" through stugy and patio privileges. Once again, the Powder Puff Game took its toll; it r.esulted in the worst football injury of the year I The senior girls tied the junior girls, seven to seven; the senior boys put up a valiant but losing battle against the fierce faculty on the volleyball court.

However, with memories of Camp Hardtner and satisfaction derived from senior 'privileges, the seniors look forward to their trip to Washington and New York and then to graduation. For many, graduation will mean the end of an era - thirteen years at St, Martin's; but, for all, it will mean that a new age has dawned, one in which we may profit from our lives at St. Martin's.

President ROBERT ALEXANDER

The Class of '65 has done it again - we became Upperclassmen this year. Halleluiahl Although the majority of our time was devoted to stomping the lower classmen into servitude, we did find time to participate in athletics, extracurricular activities, and various scholastic endeavors. Our dear ol' class has earned the title "Junior Geniuses" as a result of the outstanding scholastic achievements attained by those prominent members who have poured much blood, sweat, and tears into their books. Not to be forgotten are the contributions made to our dear

Alma Mater by Juniors in the form of work on the Shield (a-hem's), Halo, Student Council, and Honor Society as well as various other activities. Our class. was drawn together by co-operative work on the Rummage Sale which netted us a cool $600 and by work to produce the 1964 Junior-Senior Prom. This prom promises to give the deserving Seniors a send-off which they will forever remember. We hope, in turn, that our class has developed into a group of hardworking students who will produce a Senior class that St. Martin's will always remember.

The sophomore class started this year with the annual paper drive. As of this time we have made considerable progress toward earning money to finance future class activities. Our goal is to make enough money to make next year's JuniorSenior Prom the most spectacular event in the school's history.

We decided to have a class party in January instead of sponsoring the Backwards Dance, since the Backwards Dance has not been profitable in previous years.

The sophomore members of the varsity football team have proved to be valuable additions to the squad. The varsity and junior varsity basketball teams have quite a few sophomore additions. We are proud of the way the boys have represented our class in the various activities.

Driver's Training was offered as an extracurricular activity this year rather than a required subject. An overwhelming number of Sophomores signed up for the course which is taught by Mr. Moody, and which proved to, be a very worthwhile activity.

All in all we have had a year full of interesting activities. We feel that our Sophomore year has been wonderful; however, we are looking forward to our Junior year with anticipation.

The Freshman class has done exceedingly well in athletics, including both the boys and girls, this year. Besides having girls on all of the winning teams - basketball, volleyball, swimming, and tennis - the girls won the volleyball intramurals. The J. V. Football team had a 3-1 record, which is the best ever. Their first win came over Country Day and was the first J. V. Saints' victory over Country Day in 6 years.

The students worked energetically on the tedious but fulfilling job of presenting the annual Freshman Dance. To raise money for the dance, they started working very early. By selling programs and running the snack bar at the Junior Varsity football games, our class was able to raise a substantial amount,

It was then decided on "Holidays" to be our theme. One group of students made beautiful decorations representing Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Mardi Gras. The band was very good and the refreshments were delicious,

Hard work in each committee, good leadership, early planning, and the never-ending help the students received from our parents, made this year's Freshman Dance one that will not soon be forgotten.

Some of the popular activities of the Freshman class are sewing, where the girls make all kinds of clothes; typing, in which the boys and girls increase their skill at their own pace; and art, where they display their talents in that field.

In general, the grades of almost every Freshman student have soared this year, with over thirty percent of the hard-working class on the honor roll,

Our freshman year·has on the whole been a very fun -filled and exciting year - especially in biology I

The eighth grade this year had a well-rounded program in athletics, classroom, and social affairs.

In academic activities there were interesting discussions in science, a variety of literature in English, a challenging approach to math, and introductory courses in French, Spanish, and Latin. Mr. Parisi also - in history - held two heated debates, one in the girls' class and one in the boys'.

In athletics, the girls participated in volleyball, basketball, tennis, and swimming; the boys went out for football, basketball, track, and swimming.

On December seventh, the eighth grade held a "Roaring Twenties" Party. This year's party was a huge success, as was the 1963-64 school session for the eighth grade.

As newcomers to the upper school, the seventh graders have had many pleasant times and some difficult ones. We have learned all about Louisiana's history, have worked many mathematical problems, have written thousands of sentences, and have become well acquainted with detention hall, Fr. Irvin's office, and the rules and regulations that try to restrict our youthful spirits We have enjoyed assemblies, pep meetings, ball games, parties, snack periods, activities, and each other. It is a special privilege to attend junior high school at St. Martin's.

Mathematics Goes Modern Mathematics is being taught on an individual achievement basis but within the framework of a specific class. The mathematics program must be broadly conceived and must be developed on the basis of understanding, acquisition of knowledge, and retention of fundamental learnings. A development of a high leve l of efficiency in the use of numbers and processes will enable the students to meet the requirements of higher mathematics: Understanding through discovery is the key word in modern mathematics- -not force drill. A student should be able at any time to demonstrate the proof of any problem or process verbally.

Sixth Grade Science

Since education along scientific lines is designed to aid each child in orienting himself in terms of a world environment overshadowed by atomic and hydrogen bombs, supersonic speeds, and kindred mechanical and physical phenomena, the study of upper elementary grade science includes groundwork in atmospheric pressure at various altitudes, wind currents , temperature changes, erosion factors, air transport, and the elements of applied chemistry and physics. It is, of course, fa r too early for anything resembling serious study of formulae, organic chemical concepts, or even basic physical laws; these will actually begin to make themselves known during the junior high school work in general science. Building of a scientific attitude of and toward an appreciation of the worth-while nature of scientific research in the physical science fields is, however, a very real objective.

GRAD~

The art of communication is stressed in every grade. In the fifth grade we read. We write. We spell. We speak. We listen. There are book reports and creative writings, S. R. A., and reference work. We learn about words and their origins and how to have fun with the dictionary. There are magic keys to spelling that we discover. We listen to poetry and sometimes write our own. All around us are books, books, books. We read to note detail, follow directions, draw conclusions, gain general significance, and skim for special information.

We are not only gaining advanced concepts in mathematics, but we are learning more about the democratic society in which we live. We run our classroom in a democratic way, trying to recognize the rights of others, as we learn about the people and events which made our country great. We plan, prepare for, and give our own parties without the help of our teacher or our parents. We enjoy having this independence and the responsibilities which go with it.

Who faked the fire drill ? '

The third grade is a year of surprising growth both physically and mentally for the eight year old. This year is an important bridge between the primary and elementary grades. Changes take place as the student is encouraged to accept more responsibility for his own school work and behavior. Regular homework is assigned and each child takes part in some cooperative committee effort. History and geography are interesting new topics encountered on the bridge. Third graders read well enough to be curious about people and ways of life in other parts of the country and world A little simple research can answer natural questions such as, "Where is Egypt?" and "How was New Orleans discovered ?"

Third graders embark on a new and different road which leads them into many varied experiences. These new paths lead them into areas to which they have not been exposed. This includes textbooks in science, language, and social studies; letter grades received for the first time; regular gym classes for both boys and girls; and weekly art instruction by our art teacher. All of these paths blended together with the spiritual and moral development of each individual makes this an interesting and pleasurable road on which to travel.

We like school! We think its fun to learn to read smoothly and to work with larger numbers. Our writing this year has better form and space and we know how to spell many words We enjoy finding out more of the world about us and God's plan for all His children. It's nice to be able to have time for drawing, listening to music and for creating stories. Free play is fun, too. We like school!

Spring furnishes a fine opportunity to initiate and carry on a garden project. Many important questions raised by the children about how flowers and vegetables grow are answered as they plant seeds and watch them grow. A garden can also be used to motivate reading and writing, and to arouse interest in expression through the arts. At times the children work as a class, and at other times, in in small groups or as individuals in independent activities.

First grade children begin to really experience democracy in action as they learn that the classroom is like a small community, each desk in it is like a home and each occupant like a householder. Cooperative living is aimed at as each child works on an individual basis, but for the good of all. A good citizen is law-abiding, or has respect for school rules, has consideration for his neighbor and keeps his "property" in order to contribute to the attractiveness of the whole community.

E. eyore, the old grey Donkey, stood by the side of the stream and looked at himself in the water.

"Pathetic," he said. "That's what it is, Pathetic."

"Why, what's the matter?"

"Nothing, Pooh Bear, nothing. We can't all, and some of us don't. That't all there is to it."

"Can't all~?" said Pooh, rubbing his nose.

"Gaiety. Song-and-dance. Here we go round the mulberry bush."

"Some can," said Eeyore.

"Why, what's the matter?"

"!2, anything the matter?"

"You seem so sad, Eeyore."

"Sad? Why should I be sad? It's my birthday. The happiest day of the year."

"Your birthday?" said Pooh in great surprise.

"Of course it is. Can't you see? Look at all the presents I have had." He waved a foot from side to side. "Look at the birthday cake. Candles and pink sugar."

Pooh looked - first to the right and then to the left.

"Presents?" said Pooh. "Birthday cake?" said Pooh. "Where?"

"Can't you see them?"

"No, " said Pooh.

"Neither can I, " said Eeyor. "Joke, " he explained. "Ha ha!"

This was too much for Pooh. "Stay there!" he called to Eeyore, as he turned and hurried back home as quick as he could.

Outside his house he found Piglet, jumping up and down trying to reach the knocker.

"Hallo, Piglet," he said.

"Hallo, Pooh," said Piglet.

"What are~ trying to do?"

"I was trying to reach the knocker," said Piglet. "I just came round--"

"Let me do it for you," said Pooh kindly.

"But Pooh," said Piglet, "it's your own house!"

"Oh!" said Pooh. "So it is," he said. "Well, let's go in."

So in they went. The first thing Pooh did was to go to the cupboard to see if he had quite a small jar of honey left; and he had, so he took it down.

So off Piglet trotted; and in the other direction went Pooh, with his jar of honey.

"Dear, dear," said Pooh, "I didn't know it was as late as that." So he sat down and took the top off his jar of honey. "Lucky I brought this with me," he thought. "Many a bear going out on a warm day like this would never have thought of bringing a little something with him." And he began to eat.

And then, suddenly, he remembered. He had eaten Eeyor's birthday present!

While all this was happening, Piglet had gone back to his own house to get Eeyor's ballon. He held it very tightly against himself, so that it shouldn't blow away.

Thinking how pleased Eeyore would be, he didn't look where he was going ... and suddenly he put his foot in a rabbit hole, and fell down flat on his face

BANG!!!???-! I!

So he trotted on, rather sadly now, and down he came to the side of the stream where Eeyore was, and called out to him.

"Many happy returns of the day, " said Piglet.

"Many happy returns of the day," called out Pooh.

"Thank you, Pooh, I'm having them," said Eeyore gloomily.

"I've brought you a little present, " said Pooh excitedly.

"I've had it, " said Eeyore.

When Eeyore saw the pot, he became quite excited.

"Why!" he said. "I believe my Ballon will just go into that Pot!"

"I'm very glad," said Pooh happily.

But Eeyore wasn't listening. He was taking the ballon out, and putting it back again, as happy as could be •..

f(; anga had felt rather motherly that morning, and Wanting to Count Things - like Roo's vests , and how many pieces of soap there were left, and the two clean spots in Tigger's feeder; so she had sent them out with a packet of watercress sandwiches for Roo and a packet of extract-of-malt sandwiches for Tigger, to have a nice long morning in the Forest not getting into mischief. And off they had gone.

And as they went, Tigger told Roo (who wanted to know) all about the things that Tiggers could do.

"Can they climb trees better than Pooh?" asked Roo, stopping under the tallest Pine Tree, and looking up at it.

"Climbing trees is what they do best," said Tigger. "Much better than Poohs."

"Could they climb this one?"

"They're always climbing trees like that," said Tigger. "Up and down all day."

"Oo, Tigger, are the y really?"

"I'll show you," said Tigger bravely, "and you can sit on my back and watch me."

So he sat on Tigger's back and up they went.

"Are we going to the top?"

"No," said Tigger.

"Oh," said Roo rather sadly. And then he went on hopefully: "That was a lovely bit just now, when you pretended we were going to fall-bump-to-the-bottom, and we didn't. Will you do that bit again?"

"NO, " said Tigger.

By and by Pooh and Piglet came along.

"Look, Pooh!" said Piglet suddenly. "There's something in one of the Pine Trees."

"So there is!" said Pooh, looking up wonderingly. "There's an Animal."

"Is it One of the Fiercer Animals?" said he, looking the other way.

Pooh nodded.

"It's a Jagular." he said.

"What do Jagulars do? asked Piglet, hoping that they wouldn't.

"They hide in the branches of trees, and drop on you as you go underneath." said Pooh.

"Perhaps we better hadn't go _underneath, Pooh. In case he dropped and hurt himself."

"They don't hurt themselves," said Pooh. "They're such very good droppers."

"Help! Help!" it called.

"That's what Jagulars always do," said Pooh, much interested. "They call 'Help! Help!' and then when you look up, they drop on you."

"Pooh!" he cried. "I believe it's Tigger and Roo!"

"So it is," said Pooh. "I thought it was a Jagular and another Jagular."

"How did you get there, Roo?" asked Piglet.

"On Tigger's back! And Tiggers can't climb downwards, because their tails get in the way, only upwards, and Tigger forgot about that when we started, and he's only just remembered. "

"Piglet," said Pooh solemnly, when he had heard all this, "what shall we do?" And he began to eat Tigger's sandwiches.

"It's Christopher Robin!" said Piglet. "~ know what to do."

"I've got an idea!" cried Christopher Robin suddenly. "I'll take off my tunic and we '11 each hold a corner, and then Roo and Tigger can jump into it, and it will be all soft and bouncy for them, and they woun't hurt themselves."

"Look out!" cried Christopher Robin to the others. There was a crash, and a tearing noice, and a confused heap of everybody on the ground. And Tigger was there, feeling Bouncy again already.

6.dward Bear, known to his friends as Winnie-the-Pooh, or Pooh for short, was walking through the forest one day, humming proudly to himself. He had made up a little hum that very morning, as he was doing his Stoutness Exercises in front of the glass: "Tra-la-la, tra-la-la," as he stretched up as high as he could go, and then "Tra-la-la, tra-la-oh, help!-la," as he tried to reach his toes.

Well, he was humming this hum to himself when suddenly he came to a sandy bank, and in the bank was a large hole.

So he bent down, put his head into the hole, and called out:

"Is anybody at home?"

"Nobody."

"But this~ Me!" said Bear, very much surprised.

"What sort of Me?"

"Pooh Bear."

"Are you sure?" said Rabbit, still more surprised.

"Quite, quite sure, " said Pooh.

"Oh, well, then, come in. "

Pooh always liked a little something at eleven o'clock in the morning, and he was very glad to see Rabbit getting out the plates and mugs; and when Rabbit said, "Honey or condensed milk with your bread?" he was so excited that he said, "Both, " and then, so as not to seem greedy, he added, "But don't bother about the bread, please." And for a long time after that he said nothing •.. until at last, humming to himself in a rather sticky voice, he got up, shook Rabbit lovingly by the paw, and said that he must be going on.

So he started to climb out of the hole. He pulled with his front paws, and pushed with his back paws, and in a little while his nose was out in the open again ... and then his ears ..• and then his front paws •• and then his shoulders •.• and then -

"Oh, help!" said Pooh. "I'd better go back."

"Oh, bother!" said Pooh. "I shall have to go on. "

"I can't do either!" said Pooh. "Oh, help and bother!"

Now by this time Rabbit wanted to go for a walk too, and finding the front door full, he went out by the back door, and came round "to Pooh, and looked at him.

"Hallo, are you stuck?" he asked.

"N-no," said Pooh carelessly. "Just resting and thinking and humming to myself."

"It all comes," said Pooh crossly, "of not having front doors big enough."

"It all comes, " said Rabbit sternly, "of eating too much. " "I thought at the time, " said Rabbit, "only I didn't likd to say anything," said Rabbit, "that one of us was eating too much, " said Rabbit, "and I knew it wasn't me," he said. "Well, well, I shall go and fetch Christopher Robin."

Christopher Robin lived at the other end of the Forest, and when he came back with Rabbit, and saw the front half of Pooh, he said, "Silly old Bear, " in such a loving voice that everybody felt quite hopeful again.

"Then there's only one thing to be done," he said. "We shall have to wait for you to get thin again."

"We '11 read to you, " said Rabbit cheerfully. "And I hope it won't snow, " he added. "And I say, old fellow, you 're taking up a good deal of room in my house - do you mind if I use your back legs as a towel-horse? Because, I mean, there they are - doing nothing - and it would be very convenient just to hang the towels on them."

"Then would you read a Sustaining Book, such as would help and comfort a Wedged Bear in Great Tightness?"

So for a week Christopher Robin read that sort of book at the North end of Pooh, and Rabbit hung his washing on the South end •.. and in between Bear felt himself getting slenderer and slenderer. And at the end of the week Christopher Robin said, "Now!"

And then, all of a sudden, he said "~ ! " just as if a cork were coming out of a bottle.

To the 1963 Varsity Football Squad: You displayed a commendable effort in this season's play. Had it not been for crippling injuries to key personnel your record would have been outstanding. Accept my congratulations on a job well done. Though the 1963 season has

not been the most successful in our history, it certain!y has been one of the most exciting. To the boys who are leaving, I wish you the best of luck, and to those remaining, let's make next year's squad the greatest yet.

The St. Martin's Saints gave a big dose of John Eastman to the Mid City Pioneers and came up with a 39-6 victory in their Riverside League battle Friday at St. Martin's. It was the final game for both squads. Eastman did everything including shine on defense. He scored four touchdowns and picked up 143 yards rushing. His touchdowns gave him the Riverside scoring lead with a total of 92 points.

All of Eastman's tallies came in the first half. He scored on runs of seven and three yards and was on the receiving end of scoring pass plays that covered 59 and 42 yards. His amazing ability to run over tacklers and squirm out of their grasps was particularly evident on the passes when he used sheer power and not downfield blocking to score.

SAINTS DEEP AT ALL SPOTS

Porter Has 19 Lettermen Returning

Saint coach Tony Porter welcomed 19 lettermen, 15 of which are seniors, to his 39-man squad which is the largest turn out in the school's history.

As usual St. Martin's is loaded with backfield speed and is unusually deep in all positions. The Saints will be trying to improve their 4-4 record of last year as they lost but five men off the squad. Replacing the graduated offensive weapon Jimmy Vaughn will be one of the greatest all around athletes to ever hit the Riverside League, John Eastman.

Eastman, a 168 pound senior halfback, has the speed and overall ability to make the Saints always dangerous. He is a cocaptain of the squad along with Bill McHugh, a guard.

Joining Eastman in the probable starting backfield will be Robert Alexander ( 152) at quarterback; Jim Martin ( 155) at the other half; and Chip Wendt ( 165) at fullback. The starting line will probably consist of Skip Weber (175) and either Jan van Loon ( 16 5) or Fred Smith ( 180) at ends; Milton Pounds (200) and either Paul Wagner ( 190) or Ernest Cascini ( 192) at tackles; Bill McHugh ( 170) and Roy Beason (178) at guards; and Cutting Jahncke ( 170) at center.

The 1963- ' 64 baskeball season was filled with thrills and excitement from beginning to end. An unusually large number of close games were played, with us losing more than our share. We lost 5 games by 4 points or less. This is the difference between having a really good season as compared to our 14 win, 12 loss record.

Co-captain John Eastman will surely be missed next year as he scored 505 points as a Senior and 1354 in his career -a most enviable record for all future St. Martin's basketball players to work for. Co-captain Gene Rackle heads up a list of promising prospects - six of them letter winnersthat will return next year.

The team had good height in 6'4" Bill Goheen, 6'2" David Snodgrass, and 6' Grant Schlueter, and good speed and ball handling in the form of John Rucker and Larry Buchtel. Our height and speed were used to good advantage in compiling an overall season record of 11 wins and 4 losses. Even though we lacked team experience, we made up for it with a smooth fast break offense and a tight zone defense. Nine members of the team will move up to the varsity next year with a year of experience and hard work behind them . Four team members will be joined by hopeful new freshmen in anticipation of a successful year in 1964-5.

It is difficult for me to express my admiration, liking, and respect for the girls of St. Martin's. Their high level of sportsmanship, effort, and enthusiasm make my association with them rewarding indeed. Last year, when the tennis team effort brought the St Martin's trophy home, it was a particularly pleasing occasion - as was the league championship win by the ninth and tenth grade volleyball team this year and the fine effort by the eleventh and twelth grade team in their regular season of undefeated play. The yearly increases in fitness levels as shown by the national tests is further evidence of the really fine effort and initiative shown by these girls.

"One day Pooh and Piglet and Rabbit and Roo were all playing Poohsticks together: They had dropped their sticks in the river when Rabbit said "Go!" and then they had hurried across to the other side of the bridge, and now they were all leaning over the edge, waiting to see whose stick would come out first. But it was a long time coming, because the river was very lazy that day.

"I can see yours, Piglet," said Pooh suddenly.

"Are you~ it's mine?" squeaked Piglet excitedly.

"Yes, because it's grey. A big grey one. Here it comes! A very-big-grey - Oh, no, it isn't, it's Eeyore."

Looking very calm, very dignified, with his legs in the air, came Eeyore from beneath the bridge.

"It's Eeyore!" cried Roo, terribly excited.

"Is that so?" said Eeyore, getting caught up by a little eddy, and turning slowly round three times. "I wondered."

"I didn't know you were playing," said Roo.

"I'm not," said Eeyore.

"Eeyore, what~ you doing there?" said Rabbit.

"I'll give you three guesses, Rabbit. Digging holes in the ground? Wrong. Leaping from branch to branch of a young oak-tree? Wrong. Waiting for somebody to help me out of the river? Right. Give Rabbit time, and He'll always get the answer."

"He's going round and round," said Roo, much impressed.

"And why not?" said Eeyore coldly.

"I can swim too," said Roo proudly.

There was a moment's silence while everybody thought.

"I've got a sort of idea," said Pooh at last, "but I don't suppose it's a very good one."

"I don't suppose it is either," said Eeyore.

"Go on, Pooh," said Rabbit. "Let's have it."

"Well, if we all threw stones and things into the river on side of Eeyore, the stones would make waves, and the waves would wash him to the other side."

Pooh dropped his stone. ThJre was a loud splash, and Eeyore disappeared ...

It was an anxious moment for the watchers on the bridge. And then, just as Pooh was beginning to think that he must have chosen the wrong stone or the wrong river or the wrong day for his Idea, something grey showed for a moment by the river bank ... and it got slowly bigger and bigger : and at last it was Eeyore coming out.

"Well done, Pooh," said Rabbit kindly. "That was a good idea of ours."

"What was?" asked Eeyore.

"Hooshing you to the bank like that."

"Hooshing me?" said Eeyore in surprise. "Hooshing ~ -? You didn't think I was hooshed, did you? I dived. Pooh dropped a large stone on me, and so as not to be struck heavily on the chest, I dived·and swam to the bank."

"You didn't really," whispered Piglet to Pooh, so as to comfort him.

"How did you fall in, Eeyore?" asked Rabbit.

"I didn't," said Eeyore.

"But how - "

"I was BOUNCED," said Eeyore.

"But who did it?" asked Roo.

Eeyore didn't answer.

"I expect it was Tigger \" said Piglet nervously.

"But, Eeyore," said Pooh, "was it a Joke, or an Accident? I mean - "

"Well," said Rabbit, "all I can say is - well, here's Christopher Robin, so~ can say it."

"Well," said Christopher Robin, not quite sure what it was all about, "I think - "

"Yes?" said everybody.

".!. think we all ought to play Poohsticks. "

So they did. And Eeyore, who had never played it before, won more times than anybody else.

11 0 wl," said Christopher Robin, "I am going to give a party."

"You are, are, you?" said Owl.

"And it's to be a special sort of party, because it's because of what Pooh did when he did what he did to save Piglet from the flood. "

"Oh, that's what it's for, is it ?" said Owl.

"Yes, so will you tell Pooh as quickly as you can, and all the others, because it will be tomorrow."

"Oh, it wiH, will it ? " said Owl, still being as helpful as possible.

"So will you go and tell them Owl?"

Owl tried to think of something very wise to say, bur couldn't, so he flew off to tell the others. And the first person he told was Pooh.

"Pooh," he said, "Christopher Robin is giving a party."

"Oh!" said Pooh. And then seeing that Owl expected him to say something else, he said, "Will there be those little cake things with pink sugar icing ?"

Owl felt that it was rather beneath him to talk about little cake things with pink sugar icing, so he told Pooh exactly what Christopher Robin had said, and flew off to Eeyore .

"A party for Me ?" thought Pooh to himself. "How grand! " And he began to wonder if all the other animals would know that it was a special Pooh Party, and if Christopher Robin had told them about The Floating Bear and The Brain of Pooh and all the wonderful ships he had invented and sailed on, and he began to think how awful it would be if everybody had forgotten about it, and nobody quite knew what the party was for.

It was the first party to which Roo had ever been, and he was very excited.

While he was looking, Eeyore coughed in an impressive way and began to speak.

"Friends," he said, "including oddments, it is a great pleasure, or perhaps I had better say it has been a pleasure so far, to see you at my party. What I did was nothing Any of you - except Rabbit and Owl and Kanga - would have done the same

"H - hup!" said Roo accidentally.

"Roo, dear!" said Kanga reproachfully.

"AS - I - WAS - SAYING," said Eeyore loudly and sternly, "as I was saying when I was interrupted by various Loud Sounds, I feel that--"

"Here it is!" cried Christopher Robin excitedly. " Pass it dow n to silly old Pooh It' s for Pooh."

Nobody was listening, for they were all saying "Open it, Pooh," "What is it, Pooh?" "I know what it is," "No, you don't" and other helpful remarks of this sort. And of course Pooh was opening it as quickly as ever he could, but without cutting the string, because you never know when a bit of string might be Useful. At last it was undone

When Pooh saw what it was, he nearly fell down, he was so pleased. It was a Special Pencil Case. There were pencils in it marked "B" for Bear, and pencils marked "HB " for Helping Bear, and pencils marked "BB" for Brave Bear. There was a knife for sharpening the pencils, and india-rubber for r~bbing out anything which you had spelt wrong, and a ruler for ruling lines for the words to walk on, and inches marked on the ruler in case you wanted to know how many inches anything was, and Blue Pencils and Red Pencils and Green Pencils for saying special things in blue and red and green. And all these lovely things were in little pockets of their own in a Special Case which whut with a click when you clicked it. And they were all for Pooh.

Later on, when they had all said "Good-bye" and "Thank-you" to Christopher Robin, Pooh and Piglet walked home thoughtfully together in the golden evening.

LINES WRITTEN BY A BEAR OF VERY LITTLE BRA IN

On Monday, when the sun is hot

I wonder to myself a lot:

"Now is it true, or is it not,

"That what is which and which is what?"

On Tuesday, when it hails and snows, The feeling on me grows and grows

That hardly anybody knows

If those are these or these are those.

On Wednesday, when the sky is blue, And I have nothing else to do,

I sometimes wonder if it's true

That who is what .and what is who.

On Thursday, when it starts to freeze And hoar-frost twinkles on the trees, How very readily one sees

That these are whose - but whose are these?

A N INTRODUCTION is to introduce people; but Christopher Robin and his friends, who have already been introduced to you, are now going to say Goodbye. So this is the opposite. When we asked Pooh what the opposite of an Introduction was, he said "The what of a what?" which didn't help us as much as we had hoped, but luckily Owl kept his head and told us that the opposite of an Introduction, my dear Pooh, was a Contradiction; and, as he is very good at long words, I am sure that that's what it is. Why we are having a Contradiction is because last week when Christopher Robin said to me, "What about that story you were going to tell me, about what happened to Pooh when . . . " I happened to say very quickly, "What about nine times a hundred and seven?" And when we had done that one, we had one about cows going through a gate at two a minute, and there are three hundred in the field, so how many are left at:_ter an hour and a half? We find these very exciting, and when we have been excited quite enough, we curl up and go to sleep. and Pooh, sitting wakeful a little longer on his chair by our pillow, thinks Grand Thoughts to himself about Nothing, until he, too, closes his eyes and nods his head, and follows us on tip-toe into the Forest. There, still, we have magic adventures, more wonderful than any I have told you about; but now, when we wake up in the morning, they are gone before we can catch hold of them. How did the last one begin?

"One day when Pooh was walking in the Forest, there were one hundred and seven cows on a gate " No, you see, we have lost it. It was the best, I think. But, of course, it isn't really Good-bye, because the Forest will always be there ... and anybody who is Friendly with Bears can find it.

A.A.M.

"But wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place in the top of the forest, a little boy and his bear will always be playing. "
