Williston Academy

FOREWORD

Today the Flag of the United States of America has more meaning than ever before. In every corner of the globe men under this fine flag are distinguishing themselves in the fight for the liberation of the world. To all people suffering from the tyranny of several evil men, the "Stars and Stripes" waves as a hope of freedom. This horrible war will decide whether the "Red, White and Blue," as a symbol of democracy, will continue to wave, or whether the Swastika, symbol of dictatorship, will darken the skies.

Because of the fact that the United States Flag symbolizes so much, not only to the American people, but to all freedom-loving people all over the world, we are using it in this book as our theme. Some of the important things it stands for are set forth on the divisional pages.

In this book we have introduced a few innovations and have tried hard to excel the high standards of former Williston yearbooks. However, we are sure we have accomplished the main purpose of a school annual—to tell the story of the school year and record it accurately so that in years to come we may turn back and re-read and thereby re-live the year 1943.

T0 Earl Nelson Johnston in his twentyfifth year of service to Williston Academy, and thirteenth year as adviser to the "Log," whose friendliness, kindness, and loyal interest in school activities have made him endeared by many Williston students, the Senior Class respectfully dedicates the 1943 "Log."

OLD CAMPUS. Middle—South

Part II The School

The Flag of the United States of America is composed of three colors which stand for the very principles upon which our democracy was founded. The Red represents the red life,blood of brave people ready to die or to live worthily for their country; the White is for purity—cleanness of purpose, word or deed;the Blue stands for justice, like the unchanging blue of the heavens.

. .. the name preserved on indestructible metal and stone, its course guided by trustees and administrators and its destiny determined by its usefulness.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '41; Football 3; Track 3; Adelphi Gamma Sigma; Glee Club 3, 4; Willistonian 4; Log 4, Assodate Managing Editor.

"Bob" Adams, a Norwalk chap, has been prevented from taking as large a part in athletics this year as he wished. From all reports he was well on his way to be a track star after last year. This hasn't held a good man down, however, for "Bob- has proved his worth on the Student Council. Much of this year's "Log- is due to his efforts.

56 Prentice Road Newton, Mass.

College: Harvard

Entered '41; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 3, Secretary; Glee Club 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Log 3, 4; School Organist 3.

Besides being an accomplished musician,"Lennie" is one of the all-around guys at Ford Hall. He does excellent work on the Willistonian and Glee Club. He has been very active in school organizations and is usually on the honor list.

Besides being one of Williston's "Barrymores," "Erv" has also obtained for himself the reputation of an athlete and student. Sports Editor of the Willistonian, varsity football player, and honor student are no mean positions for a two-year man. Prominent among the consumption corps of Payson Hall, "Erv" gains worthily his title of "The Big Boy."

To describe "Bob" in so short a space is impossible. Therefore, we will haye to let it go at that by saying that here's the "Bob Hope" of Williston. His never ending stream of humor has given us many hours of pleasure. The girls seem to go for the Arnold personality, too, for we see letters it-plenty coming in from all over the country—Fredericksburg, Adams, Chicopee, and Northampton.

WILLIAM NORMAN BAKER

61 Norwood Terrace

Holyoke, Mass.

College: C.I.T.

Entered '41; Track 3, 4; Hockey 4; Glee Club 4; Band 4; Dramatic Club Electrician 4.

Bill is only the beginning of a long line of Holyoke boys who graduate this year. Although "Bake" is well known for his musical ability with the accordion, there is another side to him which is less known, hut which ought to be better known for everyone's personal safety. He loves to do original experiments in Chemistry. Brother, look out!

"Bill" is one of those persons that fellows like to call a friend. He always keeps a party alive, and you are sure of a cheering word and a winning smile whenever you meet him. He does a fine job in the Glee Club and the Double Quartet, and is respected by everyone at Williston.

If you ever want to borrow something or if you want somebody to do a favor for you, go down and see "Ben," he's everybody's friend. He is a great favorite with the masters, and a guy who always ranks high with the students.

MILTON CHANDLER BUELL

"Milt"

59 Wells Avenue East Hartford, Conn.

College: Georgia Tech

Entered '41; Glee Club 4.

• Here is the "Flying Dutchman*" of North Hall. At the time of this writ- ing,''Milt's" mysterious P-51 is almost complete, having been in the process of building for over a year, or maybe this is his second try at success. Anyway, we are all waiting for the maiden flight. Good luck, "Milt."

"Hubie"

80 Western Ave. Westfield, Mass. College: Northeastern U.

Entered '41; Track 3; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Operetta 3; Willistonian 2; Band 3.

"Hubie" is one of our more dashing Lotharios. He no longer deigns to visit 'Hamp School, but according to his own reports, has burned his talents to the Cooley-Dickinson Hospital. A bellicose chap, "Hubie" is really not so fierce as he seems. "Hubie" has done a really swell job in the Glee Club for three years. We wish lots of luck to a swell fellow.

ROBERT WILLIAM CLEAR

19 Shawnee Rd. Scarsdale, N. Y. College: Amherst

Entered '41; Track 3, 4; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 4; Willistonian 3, 4, Executive Board 4; Log 3, 4.

An able chap with a sparkling wit,"Bob" and his famous typewriter have been the mainstay of the Willistonian Board more than once. He donned grease paint this year for the Dramatic Club, and much of the "Log's" literary work has flowed from his facile pen. He pays attention, moreover, to the lighter things of life—such as 'Hamp School.

-Gentleman Jim"

186 Pinehurst Rd. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Dartmouth

Entered '41; Basketball 3, 4; Baseball 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Flag Committee 4.

Here is a youth of whom Holyoke may be proud. A happy-go-lucky guy, Dad" is one of the best liked fellows in school. As an old hand at cards, he will quite often be partially seen through a cloud of smoke, dealing from the bottom. Concerning les affaires des femmes, Jim says little, but we have heard a tale or two. A well-rounded youth is "Gentleman Jim."

3375 Park Ave. Bridgeport, Conn.

College: Amherst

Entered '41; Football 3, 4; Track 3, 4; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 4; Glee Club 3, 4, Operetta 3.

You are now gazing on the face of Williston's most handsome man. Perhaps you are hoping to hear something about his love life, but you are going to be fooled. As far as the opposite sex goes, "Phil" has a normal inclination; but he has other interests, such as sports, pipes, bull-sessions, and Mr. Cunningham's Math class.

WILLIAM MARTIN CURRAN, JR.

136 Crescent St. Northampton, Mass. College: U. of Michigan

Entered '42; Received "Time" Current Event Prize.

This is the first member of that noble triumvirate who belong to the heel and thumb club for all Northampton-bound day students, the other two being Oshansk and Perk. "Bill" was a strong-arm man for the Princeton league team.

Look at him, fellows! He's the "Chief," the "Big Boss," the guy for whom all we underlings slave. "Double, double, toil and trouble." But all kidding aside, Al is one of the best fellows to work for. In his three years here Al has made a hit in Ford Hall, North Hall, and Northampton. When he has left, something irreplaceable will have been taken from Mr. Granniss's list of worries.

WILLIAM

WALLACE CHISTIAN EISELE

31 Violet Ave. Mineola, L. I., N. Y.

College: Lehigh

Entered '42; Football 4; Glee Club 4; Dramatic Club 4.

He is one of those fellows from whom we always draw a laugh. Not only is "Scotty" full of fun, but he can also study and play sports with the best of them. We'll never forget him in that 5 o'clock physics class— man, what a man!

JOSEPH HOUSTON ELY

158 Morgan St. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Williams

Entered '40; Glee Club 3, 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Band 3, 4.

Here he is--a real authority on the finer points of jazz and swing in the modern manner. "Joe" is a quiet chap, but he manages to get a lot done in the way of little black books. One of the better-known residents of Holyoke, he is a staunch supporter of South Hall. "Joe" has earned the respect of his fellow students as his election to the Student Council shows.

Entered '42; Soccer 4.

Before "Ruder came to Williston he attended Mynderse Academy at Seneca Falls, N. Y., and Woodrow Wilson High School at Washington, D. C., and he has proven to be a student of no mean ability. He participated in soccer and during the winter was one of our leading skiers. We wish him luck at M.I.T., his next destination.

109 School St. Keene, N. H, • College.: Harvard

Entered '41; Glee Club 3, 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Dramatic Club 3, 4; Ski Team 3; Operetta 3. \

Sewell is really a swell fellow, even though he has some pretty wild stories to tell. We know that he doesn't expect us to believe him. He is one of our best skiers, and also a member of the Glee Club. Take it easy in the future, Sewell, you will find it pays not to be impetuous.

College: M.S.C.

Entered '41; Glee Club 4.

Stan is perhaps best known for his farming. This Fall he started the drive to help out the labor shortage among the farmers by suggesting that students work for them. The idea was accepted and went over in a big way. Stan has done a great job while he has been at Williston, and he will be missed when he leaves.

Here is North Hall's super refreshment salesman. "Anyone doughnut?" was a familiar screech every evening at 10. John was quite a foul shooter in basketball. He also proves to be quite a high jumper in track. He was an able assistant on the "Log" Business Staff.

"Johnny"

Chestnut Hill Rd. Norwalk, Conn.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '39; Willistonian Photographer 2, 4; Log 2, 4; Associate Photography Editor 4; Dramatic Club Electrician 2, 4.

"Bing" was one of the photographers on both the Willistonian and the "Log" this year. He is a jolly fellow, always ready with a smile or a cigarette for anybody who comes into his den, and in simple English, a fellow you can always call a friend.

5 Birch Terrace 'Westfield, Mass.

College: Tufts

Entered '41; Football 4; Hockey 4; Glee Club 3; Band 3.

Give me a "toot on the tooter" Johnny is a too common phrase screamed from North Hall's room 36; for in that abode resides likeable Johnny Glaze. Westfield's gift to Williston will long be remembered for his back seat instructions in history class. His room is famous for being an excellent example of modern art.

WILLIAM GEORGE GLENNEY, JR.

443 East Center St. Manchester, Conn.

College: Cornell

Entered '39; Football 3, 4; Willistonian 4; Log 4, Associate Business Manager; Student Council 4.

"Wild Bill" is known all over the Williston campus for his great sense of humor, and for his knowledge of horses. He can tell more stories about horses and make them sound true than any other ten men. He is also one of the esteemed members of the Student Council, and a welcome person on the campus.

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Basketball 3, 4; Baseball Manager 4; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 3, 4, Secretary 3, President 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Log 3, 4, Managing Editor 4.

Ha! Ha! Ha!—are the sounds that follow "Bozie," for in the descrip- tions of his letters from Phyllis, as well as his basketball arguments, there is always humor. "Bozie" was, as well, the managing editor of this book and also the boy who furnished the chewing gum for last year's victorious baseball team.

PHILIP APPLETON GRIDLEY "Phil"

127 Madison Ave. Holyoke, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '40; Willistonian 4; Band 3, 4; Ring Committee 4.

"Phil" is Payson Hall's only senior, but that fact does not stop this gay blade. A musician of no mean ability, "Phil" is noted for his mellow sax in last year's swing band. He possesses a large record collection, also. Looking towards W.P.I., "Phil" is taking six subjects but he seems to take them in his stride.

LEIGH H. GUTTERIDGE "Gut"

51 Jason St. Arlington, Mass.

College: Undecided

Entered '42; Football 4; Glee Club 4; Dramatic Club 4.

"Gut" has left us for fairer places; to be precise, the Army. Everyone agrees unanimously that he is a real loss to Williston life. "Gut" took a large part in school activities as both a Dramatic Club and Glee Club member. He played a flashy and strenuous game for the Princeton club in league basketball.

College: Undecided

Entered '41; Track 3, 4; Adelphi„ Gamma Sigma 3, 4; Willistonian 3, 4i Log 3, 4; Dramatic Club 4; Band 4.

Bach, Beethoven, and Boogie Woogie are all "duck soup" to "Brad." In addition to his mUsical talents you ought to catch a glimpse of him on the track; does the hundred in five step. "Honest Abe" had nothing on this likeable; raw-bone&recruit. See you in Carnegie, fellow. •

"Frank" is one of the fellows that left school in the middle of the year, college bound. He wasn't here long, hut while he was here, he left an impression that is going to stay a long time. He was in the starting line-up for both hockey and football, and when he left we lost a good athlete 'and a good man.

Entered '39; Soccer 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4, Captain 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Prom Committee 4; Double Quartet 4; Band 4.

Without doubt George possesses one of the fine voices in Williston, as any Glee Club member will attest. A devotee of good music, George's connections have enabled him to attend the Smith concerts this year. George was one of the star halfbacks on the soccer team, and he is also an outstanding track man. Undoubtedly he is one of the best athletes Williston will ever see.

PAUL BENSON HUNT, JR. "Hunty"

17 Payson Ave. Easthampton, Mass.

College: R.P.I.

Entered '42; Willistonian 4; Log 4.

Paul is a local boy who made good in the local "Prep" school. Although he has been here only a year, and his senior one at that, Paul will leave a good account of himself at Williston, maintaining the commendable record set by other Easthampton boys who have graduated from here.

BURTON WILLIS JOHNSON

"Bud"

80 Hopkins Pl. Longmeadow, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Hockey 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Log 4, Associate Business Manager 4;"Y" Cabinet 4.

A little fellow packing a load of dynamite is South Hall's "Bud" Johnson. He has done a splendid job as one of the "Log" executives, and has been elected to a vacancy on the "Y" Cabinet. "Bud" was one of the reliable sparkplugs on the soccer team for the last two years. He is one of the powerful quartet that presides over the fortunes of South.

ALAN KENNEDY

"Al"

Central St. Boylston, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '39; Soccer 3, 4;Hockey 4; Willistonian 2, 3, 4, Editor-inChief 4; Log 4; Student Council 3, 4;"Y" Cabinet 3; Dramatic Club 1, 2, 3, Property Manager 2, Stage Manager 3; Ring Committee 4; Class President 2; Class Secretary 4.

To live up to the record of his brother who graduated valedictorian two years before is not easy, but "Al" has been equal to the task, even though social engagements sometimes took precedence over studies. In acknowledging "Al's" capabilities we must not overlook his athletic ability, nor his very active part in extra-curricular activities.

186 Elm St. Gardner, Mass. College: Amherst

Entered '42; Glee Club 4.

Harold came to Williston in his senior year, so he has not had the chance to make as much a name for himself as the older residents. Nevertheless, he has impressed everyone as a sincere chap who really tries to get ahead. He has made many friends in a short time, and demonstrated ability on the Canaries. Lots of luck to a quiet chap who is a fine friend to have.

16 Eton St. Springfield, Mass. College: Amherst

Entered '42; Football 4; Hockey 4.

"Bob," one of Ford's honor men, has really been an asset to Williston. As a star football and hockey player,"Bob" has made a noteworthy record this year. His athletic ability, and his wit, have helped to make him one of Williston's best all-around fellows.

HAROLD HEINRICHS KUNIHOLM "Haddock"

GORDON LESLEY MacDONALD

77 Brookline Ave. Holyoke, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '41; Football Manager 4; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 4; Glee Club 4; Log 4.

There are several reasons for coming to Williston, but "Mac" has never decided what influenced him. Perhaps it was a desire to cover Samble's carpet with cigarette stubs. "Mac" has made many friends this year and in the past. He did a competent job managing the basketball and football teams this year, and has been an Adelphi faithful. His activities at night in South have been numerous.

ARTHUR FREDERICK McGRATH, JR.

43 Lenox St. Springfield, Mass.

College: Dartmouth

Entered '42; Football 4; Basketball 4.

Even though this is "Art's" first year here, he has done a fine job for the school—both in academic and athletic work. He was really a swell guy to have around, and has also proved a capable and outstanding air raid warden.

"Mac"

"Art"

CHARLES KINGDON MAJOR "Chuck"

Harwood Lane

East Rochester, N. Y. College: West Point

Entered '41; Soccer Manager 4; Track 3, 4; Log 3.

"Chuck" is one of the few fellows from Williston who is headed for West Point. He has done a grand job here and will probably do just as well up at West Point. He proved to be an excellent soccer manager. "Chuck" is particularly well known for his peerless wardrobe.

PETER HELMUT MAYER "Pete"

.11841-80th Rd.

Kew Gardens, L. I., N.Y. College: Undecided

Entered '41; Tennis 2, 4; Log 4.

"Pete" is one of our Austrian friends who has come over and done well in his two years here. He is noted for his mathematical ability. In the field of sports he can kick a mean soccer ball; prize of the Fencebuster's, "Pete" was. With him have come some swell stories of Europe—stories we'll never forget.

PATRICK JOSEPH MEANY, JR. "Pat"

240 Madison Ave.

Holyoke, Mass.

College: Harvard

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Tennis 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Band 3.

Here is another Irish "Mick" from Holyoke. While everyone else is out visiting during study hour,"Pat" is in his room grinding away at the books for the big test tomorrow. He is not a perpetual bookworm, however; just ask anybody who has played with him in tennis. Last year "Pit" won the Holyoke junior tennis championship.

RICHARD GWYN MESSENGER

"Mess"

51 Four Mile Rd.

West Hartford, Conn.

College: Undecided

Entered '40; Soccer 2, 3, 4, Captain 4; Baseball 2; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Student Council 4; Dramatic Club 2, 3.

"Mess" is one of Williston's all-around guys, who is everybody's friend and nobody's enemy. The senior class lost one of its best men when Uncle Sam called him to the colors. As captain of the soccer team, he was the idol of his fellow players. Here's wishing him all the luck in the world, wherever he may be, and in whatever he may be doing.

THOMAS DEWITT NEALE

"Tommy"

28 Maple Hill Drive Larchmont, N. Y.

College: Columbia

Entered '40; Track 2;Tennis Manager 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Willistoni-. an 2, 3, 4; Log 4; Cheer Leader 2, 3,4.

"A friend in need is a friend in deed," fits "Tommy" perfectly. His good-natured comradery is one of the backbones of Ford Hall. Tommy was manager of the tennis team this year, besides being our head cheer leader.

1134 Valley Rd.

Fairfield, Conn.

College: R.P.I.

Entered '41; Willistonian 3; Log 3, 4, Photography Editor 4; Student Council 4; Manager Hockey Team 4.

Bob was one of the star photographers for both the "Willistonian" and the "Log." While he has been at Williston he had won the respect and friendship of both masters and students alike. Mr. Winship will long remember him as one of the more reticent inmates of Ford. He has also done an efficient job on the Student Council this year.

ROBERT LEE ONKEY "Onk"

HERBERT MAURICE OSHANSKY

II Arnold Ave.

Northampton, Mass.

College: Undecided

Entered '42; Football 4.

"Bullet," the big fellow from 'I-lamp, has added local color, and plenty of it to the class of '43. He is particularly famed for his participation in Mr. Test's English class. He is a swell guy and an authority on almost any feature of Northampton. You should see "Bullet" show Coach Lash how to lead the class in calisthenics!

Shelter Island New York

College: Harvard

Entered '42; Glee Club 4; Band 4.

Always famous for his trumpet cheer is "Ken." Although he left for college after mid-years, in his short stay here he proved himself wrothy of notice. His work in the school band, at games, pep rallies, and what have You, were very beneficial to us. Williston suffered a great loss when he went to Harvard.

"Bullet"

KENNETH HAVENS PAYNE "Ken"

ROWAN PENROSE PERKINS, II

36 Bedford Terrace Northampton, Mass. College: U. of Penna.

Entered '40; Assistant Manager Football 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Willistonian 4; Band 2, 3, 4.

Until the gas rationing began, you could nearly always see Rowan dashing out of his last class into his flashy station wagon. But, when the restrictions of war were put in force, Rowan put away luxuries and took to the old heel and thumb method of transportation.

STANLEY PETERS

33 Washington Sq. West New York, New York College: Columbia

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Tennis 3, 4, Captain 3; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 3, 4, Vice-President 4; Glee Club 3, 4, Vice-President 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Log 3, 4, Business Manager 4; Ring Committee.

"Bill" is a fellow with whom everybody is acquainted, but whom few know. Musician, athlete, and philosopher are all thrown into one hunk of protoplasm here. Also, this is for the records, he's the only fellow we know who gets gifts of flat-fifties regularly—and from a girl, no less.

RICHARD DAVIES PICKETT

"Dick"

42 Harrison Ave. Northampton, Mass.

College: Wesleyan

Entered '40;Football 4; Willistonian 4;Log 3, 4; Dramatic Club 3, 4.

Here is another 'I-lamp boy but "Dick" is an overnight customer. To see how the other half thrived, "Dick" moved from Ford Hall up to the old campus. Here are some of his opinions: Talk, the same—girls and war. Advantages of old campus--classrooms near. Disadvantages—dining hall too far away too early in the morning.

WILLIAM EDWARD POWERS

429 Appleton St. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Annapolis

Entered '39;Football 2, 3, 4;Track 3, 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Willis, tonian 1, 2, 3, 4; Log 4.

They call this fellow the "Crusher," even though he is noted for his Ipana smile and his jovial air. "Willie" has spent four years here at Williston and has friends in exuberance. He's a smooth apple, too—you remember, Margie? You can't describe him in three words but, nevertheless, one has to say that Bill was worthy to know and could make hours go like minutes.

"Willie"

JOHN WILLARD PRESCOTT "Fanny"

Keeseville

New York

College: Princeton

Entered '40; Soccer 2; Football 3, 4; Basketball 2, 3, Captain 4; Baseball 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2, VicePresident 3, Manager 4; Prom Committee 4; Willistonian 2, 3, Business Manager 4; Student Council 4, Vice-President; Band 2, 3, 4; Senior Class President.

Keeseville's god, he was named in those days; John was certainly an invaluable asset to the school's progress. Discounting his numerous activities and his deep responsibilities, "Fanny" would still rank high. He was a talker for there was plenty to tell about his village, and a fellow always ready.with a laugh. In short, he was an all-around, perfect fellow. Ask anybody, you'll see.

HARDING EUGENE REEMSNYDER

"Reem"

185 Kneeland Rd.

New Haven, Conn.

College: Wesleyan

Entered '39; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Double Quartet 4; Dramatic Club 1.

Everything comes to him who waits. As a three-year member of the second tenors, "Reem," in his fourth year, was chosen as a first bass for the Double Quartet. Also, having worked three years as an obscure waiter, Harding achieved recognition when he became head waiter in Club Paysone, a delicate position which he handled with most commendable tact.

WILLIAM CATHCART RIDDLE, JR.

Canton Connecticut College: Dartmouth

Entered '39; Soccer 2, 3, 4; Track 3; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Double Quartet 4; Gift Committee 4.

Here is the out and out, plain, everyday, garden variety Casanova of the North Hall telephone booth. But to avoid complexities, Willie is another four-year Glee Club man who made the Double Quartet in his last year. At the hecatomb of Galbraith Field, or rather Mr. Test's soccer team, Willie proved himself a battler to the end.

4 Sonoma Place

Holyoke, Mass.

College: M.I.T.

Entered '42.

"Wally" is a member of the gang down at Ford Hall. Even though this is his first and last year at Williston, he has made a good record and a lot of friends while he has been here. Williston is going to miss him after he graduates, We hope he can continue unmolested on his way to college.

"Bill"

WALTER PETER RIGALI

"Wally"

13 Northampton St. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Mass. State

Entered '42; Glee Club 4.

"Chuck" came in his last year and has maintained open house in his room on the first floor. Charley is known to all as the "Holyoke Terror" for the smashing powerdives he made in soccer this fall. Charley is a quiet fellow, but like most quiet people he has made several friends among the student body. Good luck, as if you needed it!

61 Ellington St. Longmeadow, Mass.

College: Cornell

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Hockey 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Adelphi Gamma Sigma Vice-President 4; Prom Committee 4.

An entire page would have to be written to do justice to one of the most colorful figures on the campus. "Sam" did an inspired job as soccer goalie, and his shrewd and powerful hockey game made him captain this year. He has made many friends on and off campus, claiming the title of originator of the "little black book system." Bob shows pretty good taste in all directions.

CHARLES ROBITAILLE "Chuck"

ROBERT EMERSON SAMBLE "Sam"

ROBERT WALLACE SANDERS

"Tiny"

32 Tudor Lane Scarsc141e, N. Y.

College: Wesleyan

Entered '40; Football 3, 4; Track 3, 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4, President 4; Double Quartet 4; Prom Committee 4; Student Council 4.

As a great guy and also as a leader in the school, "Tiny" certainly gets our vote. He is president of the Glee Club and has had a lead in the annual operetta. We will never forget his job as the Lord Chancellor in "Iolanthe." He also held an honored position as member of the Student Council this year.

HENRY JOSEPH SANDMAN, JR.

"SOnny"

32 Dresden St. Springfield, Mass.

College: Undecided

Entered '41; Football 3, 4, CoCaptain 4; Hockey 3; Glee Club 3; Athletic Advisory Board 4.

As co-captain of the football team,"Sonny" really did a swell job. He's always smiling and has a way about him that makes him one of the most popular fellows on the campus. He would do anything in his power for a friend, and he has plenty of friends.

LEWIS CHRISTIAN SCHLOTTERBECK "Lou"

1 Vernon St. Wakefield, Mass.

College: U.of Maine

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4; Track 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4.

What a spectacle was this fellow on the soccer field! Man, he had more legs! But aside from this, "Lou" was a "corking good" waiter and a gang leader on the first floor. He did his part for the war, too, for every Sunday he was out there spotting planes and also guiding in those dramatic blackouts.

39 Laurel St. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Cornell

Entered '41; Glee Club 3, 4, Double Quartet 3, 4; Prom Committee 4; Willistonian 3, 4; Log 4; "Y" Cabinet 3, 4, Vice-President 4; Dramatic Club 3, 4.

The Glee Club, Double Quartet, cheerleaders, and the Dramatic Club can all boast of having "Dave" as one of their prize members. As vicepresident of the "Y" or as one of the leads in the annual operetta, you will always find him doing something for the good of the school.

DAVID HUGH SINCLAIR "Dave"

ROBERT L. SMITH "Bob"

150 Remsen St.

Brooklyn, N. Y.

College: Norwich

Entered '42; Basketball 4.

"Bob" is another late arrival. Coming in after mid-years, it did not take him long to show his ability in basketball by making the second squad. He has been the butt of many a Hepworth reference to his farming background, hut "Bob" seems to he catching on to the wiles of Williston teaching.

JOHN JOSEPH SULLIVAN "Sully"

60 Beacon St. Holyoke, Mass.

College: Dartmouth

Entered '42; Football 4; Basketball 4; Baseball 4; Glee Club 4; Willistonian 4; Log 4.

A voice in North Hall screams, "Hey! Get me a Pepsi!" If you wait long enough, the echoes will die down, and you may be lucky enough to see the beaming face of Jack Sullivan pop out of almost anybody's door."Sully's" lively nature and fighting spirit will be missed both in the dorm and on the athletic field.

New Rochelle, N. Y.

College: Yale

Entered '41; Baseball 3; Adelphi Gamma Sigma 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Gift Committee 4; Log 4; Band 3, 4.

"Gil" may be found every Wednesday and Saturday merrily proceeding in his attempts to blow up the Chem. Lab. Probably some day he will succeed. Rumor has it that this chap is the reason Mr. Hubbard and other South Hall masters are developing gray hairs. "Gil" has earned the respect of all for the amount of work he has done scholastically.

JOHN LELAND TEALL "John"

'51 Howe St. New Haven, Conn.

John has proven one of the intelligentsia of Williston, leaving behind a three-year record of which anyone could be proud. A full-fledged member of brother Herzog's Bach, Beethoven, and Boogie-Woogie Club, John usually can be found sunk down in his armchair with a book in one hand and that pipe in the other, while at the same time listening to some classical jive.

GILMAN STANLEY TALBOT, JR. "Gil"

DAVID WILLIAM THOMSON

"Dave"

20 Allen St. Amherst, Mass.

College: Harvard

Entered '42; Football 4; Log 4, Associate Literary Editor; Willistonian 4, Associate Literary Editor.

"Dave" was associate literary editor of the "Log" before he went into the service, and a good one, too. He was ever ready with a story and helped a fellow along on jokes. Right now he's watching clouds in the Army meteorology corps where we are sure he is doing as well as he did here.

147 Greenacre Ave. Longmeadow, Mass.

College: Mass. State

Entered '41; Soccer 3, 4.

A room issuing forth melodious strains and ear-splitting screeches was the possession of this lad. Longmeadow has given some worthy boys and 'Tip" rates among them. He was a noticeable sight out there on the soccer field, his legs going like pistons. Not all fun, though, for "Tip" could work and when term papers came around he would be found there, in that famous room, busily engaged.

No matter what task he undertook—athletics, dramatics, and other activities—"Van" always drew words of admiration from his school friends and his superiors. In his third year he won the Dickinson Prize Speaking award and award for Best Dramatic Performance. His enthusiasm and spirit were the qualities needed to spark up the student body. "Van" is a likeable go-getter, and now that he is in the Navy we know he will be successful.

JOHN WEHRLI, JR. "R. J."

1028 Longmeadow St. Longmeadow, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '41; Track 3, 4.

The Longmeadow flash, "R. J.," is one of South Hall's leading lights. There are few things about dormitory life that do not grieve "R. J." The captain of Princeton, he is noted for the flash, zip, and style of his basketball playing. If there is any question about bathtubs, this authority can settle it.

EDWARD WILLIAM WHITE, JR.

1301 Astor St. Chicago, Ill.

College: Northwestern

Entered '41; Football 3, 4; Baseball 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Gift Committee 4; Log 3, 4; Dramatic Club 3, 4. Senior Class Vice-President.

Vice-president of our class, center on the varsity football team, and an all-around good fellow sums up to make just one great guy, "Big Ed." Besides his good work in the Glee Club and the Dramatic Club, Ed is also one of the top favorites of both masters and students.

83 Laurel St. Longmeadow, Mass.

College: W.P.I.

Entered '40; Soccer 3, 4; Track 3, 4; Willistonian 4; Log 3, 4, Business Manager 4; "Y" Cabinet 4, Vice' President and President; Ring Committee 4.

"Mal" has done a great job throughout the years that he has been at Williston. He is a member in good standing of both the varsity soccer and track squads, and has also done a good job in academic things. He was circulation manager of the "Willistonian." Good luck to a most capable fellow.

The Prom Committee

There is a small group in Williston Academy whose glory and recognition comes and goes with one May evening. It is the Prom Committee, that tiny organization whose ideas and interests usher forth one of the Spring's main attractions.

This year's committee is Made up of Sanders, Dayton, Arnold, Prescott, Howe, Sinclair, and Samble. In spite of wartime curtailments, they have put their heads together to create a dance that seniors as well as underclassmen will not forget. An excellent band plus myriads of blue and gold streamers, a den effect around the gym's edge, and many colored lights are only a few of the qualities that will make the night 3f May eighth both a memorable and entertaining one.

Standing: Howe, Samble, Sinclair, R. Arnold Seated: Dayton, Sanders, Prescott

Preview of the Prom

In spite of war-time restrictions, Williston will have its crowning social event of the year, the Senior Promenade. For many it will be the last formal dance of its kind for the duration.

Much of the color and expense of previous Proms will be curtailed in this war year. Nevertheless, the decoration and band will give the atmosphere that prevails at such gatherings. Colored streamers of blue and gold are to be strung across the ceiling, giving a very beautiful effect.

Instead of the usual Friday night affair, this 1943 Prom will be held on Saturday, May 8. The problem of transportation and food will be met as satisfactorily as possible. Even with these difficulties the dance will be a decided success for the couples that attend.

Much credit is due the Prom Committee, under Chairman Robert Sanders, for its work in the face of problems such as present entertainment committees encounter. 4110

Senior Poll

According to the Williston Senior Poll the average senior is 17 yprs, 9 months. He weighs 153 pounds and is 5 feet 103/4 inches tall.

Done Most for Williston and Most Versatile honors were bestowed upon Al Kennedy. Walt Van Cott won the title of Best Athlete with a second place as having Done Most for Williston. Bob Sanders was chosen as Best Natured and Most Humorous, winning second places as Most Popular and Most Versatile. John Prescott was selected as Most Popular with second places as Best Athlete and Most Modest. Robert Samble was voted Best Dressed and Phil Crawford was chosen Best Looking with Bill Powers running a close second. Powers was also selected by the seniors as Most Modest.

Unable to completely disregard the epoch-making conflict abroad, the poll posed some key questions concerning what we should do after the war. It was decided by our senior class that the Axis leaders should be executed; that the War would end in 1945; and that a World Police should be established after the War.

Cum Laude

The Cum Laude Society of the secondary schools corresponds to the Phi Beta Kappa Society of the colleges. Membership in the society is one of the rarest privileges awarded to any boy for scholastic achievement. It represents endless perseverance, work, and study.

The Williston Chapter of the Cum Laude Society was established fifteen years after the founding of the first chapter. The original chapter, which is the Jacob Tome Institute, was instituted by Doctor Abram Harris. Doctor Harris was General President until 1935. The Cum Laude today has over eighty-seven chapters in high schools and secondary schools, with a membership well over 11,000.

Boys with the highest scholastic standing in the senior class are made members of the Society each year.

Mr. Archibald V. Galbraith, Mr. Lincoln D. Granniss, Mr. Melvin J. Cook, Mr. Osborn P. Nash, and Mr. Robert V. Burdick are members of the society from the faculty, and they elect the boys each year who are to be given membership in the Society.

Wherever it goes, the Flag of the United States of America symbolizes freedom of speech. The people of the oppressed countries look to this flag as a means for restoring this freedom, now denied them. To have a world of peace, the voice of the people is vital. Speech is the expression of thought and will. Therefore freedom of speech means freedom of the people.

Glee Club

Despite the war's restrictions on transportation and thc resulting curtailment in the number of concerts possible, the Williston Glee Club has enjoyed a very successful year. Begun in the fall with over ninety voices, later cut to about seventy, it developed into an excellent choral group, capable of good tonal effects and fine shading. The fun as well as the instruction which came from the group singing of excellent music was the element that kept the Glee Club the largest and one of the most popular activities in the school.

This year's roster of songs was very imposing, ranging from the deeply classic to the comparatively modern. Among the sacred things, the most popular were Palestrina's Adoramus Te, Bach's Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee, and Tchnesnokov's Salvation Belongeth to Our God, these all being Harvard arrangements. Besides selections by Sibelius and Grieg, the Club most enjoyed the folksongs—Welsh, Bohemian, and American. Of the latter the negro spirituals and the sea chanteys provided the most color, such as Po' 01' Laz'rus, Shenandoah, and Eight Bells. Talented soloists like Bob Sanders, John Prescott, and Dave Sinclair did much to strengthen the quality of the club's tone as well as provide variety for its programs. In addition there were Kenneth Josephson with his 'cello, and the double quartet.

DOUBLE QUARTET

Left to right: Mr. Rouse, Director; Best, Sinclair, W. Riddle, Sanders, Prescott, Peters, Reemsnyder

An informal concert was given at the school on January 29. Later in the year the club sang for a morning service at the Episcopal Church and also gave a concert in the parish house of the church. The double quartet performed once at the Congrega, tional Church. But the most pleasant experience of the year was the combined concert with the Northampton School for Girls, sponsored this year by the girls' school. Both schools sang remarkably well, and the combined numbers were very effective and enthusiastically received by the audience. The dancing that followed the concert made the evening both a musical and a social hit.

Maintaining a Gilbert and Sullivan tradition begun in 1939, the club this year offered "Trial by Jury," the first of the Savoy operas. It was extraordinarily well done, largely because of a veteran staff of principals. Bob Sanders as the Judge, Dave Sinclair as the Defendant, Bill Peters as the Usher, and John Prescott as the Counsel were outstanding in their performances. Vigorously effective was the Jury, unrestrained as some of its members were. The Bride, Nancy Brown,supported by a bevy of beautiful bridesmaids, was a most winning Plaintiff. The Spectators, anything but docile, gave the courtroom a hilarity second only to that of the lively Jury.

In conclusion, the recognition for the above attainments must be given to Mr. Charles Rouse and,to his aide, Frederick B. Hyde. Through the passing years, club after club has been groomed to success by their diligent, jocund, and faithful ways. The club once rehearsed and complete is a final and fitting tribute to their tireless handiwork and skill.

The Band

The Williston Band played for the second consecutive year at football games and rallies during the 1942 season. Mr. Frederick B. Hyde forsook the chapel organ to conduct the ensemble and pound the bass drum. Robert Fitzgerald acted as conductor when Mr. Hyde was unable to be present.

This year's band must be given high praise and credit, since it carried on at every occasion despite many adverse conditions. At football games it was forced to obtain the utmost in volume with an ofttimq decimated group. This was due to the fact that many band members were also players on the first football and soccer squads. Because of the delivery difficulties brought about by the war effort, sheet music was often late in arriving from the publishers. Rehearsals had to be held at odd moments, making efficient conduct and organization of band affairs extremely difficult. For most of the year the band did not know where its next bass drum was coming from. However, towards the end of the season, Mr. Hyde was fortunate to be able to purchase an excellent second-hand bass drum, on which he painted in blue and gold letters the legend "WILLISTON ACADEMY."

Besides playing at games and chapel rallies the band organized a novel feature parades down to the gymnasium before the games. At promptly a half an hour before the kick-off, the members of the band would foregather on the South Hall steps. They would then play one or two numbers to attract attention and, when a sufficiently large crowd had been gathered, would lead the procession down Main Street to the field. The many encores the band gave in chapel testifies to its popularity.

ASST. DIRECTOR

Mr. Burdick

The Dramatic Club has been unable this year to give its usual large, three-act presentation due to the attack of the measles which quarantined the school. Therefore, the production schedule this year has been limited to the usual three one-act plays in the fall; two one-act plays are under discussion at this writing, however, to be presented some time in April.

The three one-act-plays, presented on December 12, were "Reunion," "A Shakesperian Interlude," and "The Late Captain Crow." The first mentioned was under the direction of Mr. Robert V. Burdick, while the last two were piloted by our head director, Mr. Howard G. Boardman.

The first presented was "The Late Captain Crow," a roaring, lusty comedy of stolen goods and sudden death on the Spanish Main in the seventeenth century. On board ship, a Spanish captive, Robert Clear, related to pirates Richard Pickett, John Seiler, and John Teall, a blood-curdling tale of cursed black diamonds. With the assistance of other crew members, Erving Arnold and Donald Soule,.they plotted to murder Captain Crow, Valdemar Van Cott, and return to the mainland to find the diamonds. They were cheated of the prize when the Captain died a natural death after delirium tremens, and the body was thrown over the side of the ship into the sea. A returning crew member informed them that the late Captain Crow had had the diamonds in his boots.

The play,"A Shakesperian Interlude," was a somewhat'naughty but quite amusing fantasy on the events which might occur after the last-act curtain of "Hamlet." Starred in this were Ed White, David Sinclair, James Conroy, Jack Poillion, Paul Bechard, Eugene Berman, Robert Riddle, Jack Ewing, Leigh Gutteridge, Otis Angier, and George Scheibel.

•Director Howard G. Boardman cleverly staged "The Late Captain Crow" and "A Shakespearian Interlude," while assistant director Robert V. Burdick ably conducted the production of "Reunion," a melodrama in imitation of the fare which our grandparents enjoyed at the theatre. The villainous Dan Gullitt, played by Waldemar Van Cott, attempted .to cheat the rustic Professor Finch, John Teall, out of forty thousand dollars. Although in his foul attempts to obtain the coin, Gullitt even stooped to "gross physicalities" and tried to shoot Finch's daughter, William Atwood. He was foiled by young Sergeant Dick Trevelyan, played by Ford Pray. Finch was reunited with Penelope, his long lost wife, played by Conrad Hunter, and Trevelyan married Thelma. Also in the cast were Robert Brennan as the Chinaman and Gregory Eaton as the infamous "Cokey" Joe.

The play "Gold in the Hills" or "The Dead Sister's Secret" was scheduled for production in March, but an attack of measles mowed down many important members of the cast and caused cancellation of the play. This is the first time in the history of the club that some three-act play has not been given. At the present writing, however, two one-act plays are scheduled for presentation some time in April. Mr. Boardman will direct a scene from the second act of "Journey's End." The cast is composed of Erving Arnold, John Teal!, Robert Fitzgerald, John Seiler, and William Atwood. The plot is concerned with the conflict arising between Captain Stanhope, the embittered British Company Commander, and Lieutenant Raleigh, a junior officer new to war. The action .takes place in a dugout on the front line in France during the Great World War. Mr. Burdick will produce a faculty play, "The Scene Is Written," concocted by himself. In the cast will be R. V. Burdick and H. G. Boardman.

Because of the multitude of actors, it is rather difficult to assign acting honors this year. Donald Soule, as Pye in "The Late Captain Crow," deserves special praise for his deft handling of a comedy part. Erving Arnold, the club's president, also did an excellent job in the same play. Mention should also be made of Edward White and David Sinclair who were largely responsible for the success of "A Shakesperian Interlude." Waldemar Van Cott and John Tea11 deserve lurels for taking on extra parts at the last moment, learning lines of two boys who left school. The stage crew under Robert Bowman and Alan Kennedy capably undertook the difficult and indispensable, tasks of properties and staging.

Instituted by the Adelphi Society, the "Willistonian" has been for sixty-two years one of the most important extra-curricular activities of the school.

Once a month on a Sunday morning the staff of the "Willistonian" gather in the Whitney Room to form -submitted material into the next edition of the paper. And being democratic in its management, the "Willistonian" prints not only school news and regular columns but also editorials which may be submitted by alumni, the faculty, or students.

With some of the articles published are photographs which pertain to school activities, sports, and the faculty.

For putting together a newpaper like the "Willistonian" all credit cannot be given to any one person or any groups of persons. Although Editor-in-Chief Alan Kennedy, News Editor John Teall, and Sports Editor Erving Arnold have been invaluable to the paper, their tasks could not have been done without the assistance of the Executive Committee, the Business Staff, and all of the many assistants and associates. However, one must not forget the paper's advisers from the faculty, Messieurs Test and Johnston, to whom the "Willistonian" owes a debt of gratitude for their faithful supervision of the paper's preparation and finance.

Without all these earnest workers, the "Willistonian" could never have earned its high standing among newspapers of other secondary schools.

The "Log"

LOG EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

Standing: W. Glenney, E. Arnold, R. Arnold, B. Johnson, W. Best, R. Onkey

Seated: J. Tea11, M. Goldman, A. Dayton, W. Peters, M. Zink

When a school activity has the job of writing about itself, it is always difficult to avoid the charge of blowing one's own horn too vociferously. The fact remains, however, that the "Log". is one of the most important and influential organizations in school. • This is not only from the standpoint of supplying the student body with a loving record of the year, it is also invaluable as source material for school records.

The "Log" was started in 1902 by a few faculty members and students. Its form went through several changes in years that followed, during World War I, for example, a paper cover was adopted. The ready-made cover was abandoned in 1934 for the present type, selected and designed by the staff.

The task of getting a "Log" together is a long and arduous one. There is no chance for applause at the footlights for the staff and editors. The real work is done behind the scenes by a comparatively small group from which all "deadwood" has been carefully eliminated. The histories of all activities must be compiled, seniors written up, and sports discussed. There are also photographs to be takert, statistics to be collected, accounts balanced, and advertisements to be solicited. At the head of this widespread activity there is the editor-in-chief, who must co-ordinate and oversee all "Log" affairs. This year we have been very fortunate in having Alan Dayton as editor. His past experience and serious attitude had enabled him to handle competently the task of making this a bigger and better "Log" than ever. Credit must also be given to the editors and managers of each department who have been personally responsible for getting the material in on time. The assistants, who do much of the actual composition and upon whose shoulders the burden of manufacturing the "Log" falls, deserve high praise. We sincerely hope that this year's "Log," whose theme stands for the epitome of all our hopes and aspirations during these dark days, will carry on the past shining record.

EDITOR -IN -CHIEF A. Dayton

We are thankful to have been assisted by Mr. Earl N. Johnston whose twelve years of experience has been invaluable to us. Without his generous aid we would never have been able to put out a "Log."

Williston Men in Service

(ALUMNI BULLETIN)

There are now over 450 Williston alumni in various branches of the United States armed forces. They are stationed in all parts of the World. Nine of these men have either been killed or are reported missing in action,and it is to these men that we dedicate these pages.

This year 5 seniors and a few underclassmen have left school to enter the service, and it is expected that by June the majority of the senior class will have enlisted and will be called shortly after graduation.

The name'and reputation of Williston has been distinguished by its sons who are now in the service by carrying on its high ideals, and by displaying outstanding bravery in the field of action.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Mr. Boardman for the excellent work he has done this year as alumni secretary.

Student Council

Since the year 1917 the Williston Academy Student Council has been an important body in school affairs. The present council is composed of ten members from the different halls, elected by the students whom they are to represent.

Although the Student Council has various functions, the idea of student welfare and improvement is foremost. The theory of unwitten law has been used for the most part here at Williston. In earring this out, the Council may find it necessary to discipline, but only where such a course will help the student or students involved. The group also enforces the honor system, which has had satisfactory application in the past few years.

In the past year the Student Council has incorporated several new things into the life of the school. An added senior privilege was obtained, giving seniors more free time on Saturday nights. The question of bicycle registration was also taken up, and a complete cataloguing of student bicycles was accomplished. As usual the members have organized tea dances after the fall athletic contests.

The officers of the Student Council, John Prescott, President; Raymond Mason, Vice-President; and Robert Sanders, Secretary, have done their work under the guidance of Faculty Adviser Mr. William J. Lossone. These and other members not only have gained valuable experience for themselves, but also have done their part in keeping Williston morale standing at a high level.

The Y Cabinet

The Williston Y Cabinet, under the supervision of Mr. L. D. Granniss, is one of the oldest and most important, although least-heard•of, organizations in the school. Its principal duties are to maintain good fellowship among the students and to see that charitable organizations are provided for.

At the beginning of each year the new students get acquainted at the Y reception, which is made possible by Mr. Granniss and his committee. The Y Cabinet also sponsors the smokers at the end of each athletic season. The tea dances after athletic games and a Saturday evening informal dance are put on by the Y Cabinet and the Student Council.

The school cabin with its bunks and stoves is maintained by the Y Cabinet. The common room in North Hall is also under the auspices of this society.

To aid in welfare work, the Y Cabinet collects clothing, sponsors the Golden Rule dinners, and collects money.

Under the leadership of Waldemar Van Cott and Malcolm Zink, the Y Cabinet has greatly increased the school spirit this year by sponsoring a band, organizing student police, and having sheets of school songs and cheers printed.

Adelphi-Gamma Sigma

After being steered through rock waters of a constitutional change by President Goldman, the Adelphi-Gamma Sigma, Williston's debating society, seems on the road to greater conquests. The result of the union of two old rival debating societies, Adelphi-Gamma Sigma was called by the title "The Belles-Lettres Society of Williston Academy" for over a decade. In 1937 the present name was adoped. A constitutional change in 1942 led to a more open organization with a resultant increase in membership.

Tills year a special committee appointed by the society succeeded in obtaining further changes in the constitution tending to revitalize the club and test the eligibility of membership applicants. There has been this year a drive towards collecting a war bond fund to be presented to the school. Debates this year have been more concerned with current school topics. For example, a most interesting and informative debate was held on the topic, "Resolved: The present school student government system should be altered.- The club has also tended to give all the members a chance to express their views by having open discussions on the topics. From Aaelphi are chosen the debaters for the Carew Prize.

Too much credit cannot be given to the officers this year for maintaining a vital organization. They are, first half: E. Arnold, W. Peters, and M. Goldman; second half: M.Goldman, R. Samble, and J. Teal!. Faculty advisers were Lincoln D. Granniss and James F. Sterling.

The Flag of the United States was made by men wishing to obtain freedom from fear. In any nation ruled by greed and power of several evil and willful men, fears of starving, of becoming a slave, of having family and self attacked and killed, are all prevalent. To insure our own freedom from these fears, we must destroy them in every nation of the world, for freedom for ourselves involves freedom for all.

Athletic Advisory Board

Every year the athletic activities of our school are very much influenced by the Athletic Advisory Board, a group made up of five student representatives prominent in athletics, and five members of the faculty. The four dormitories each elect a member, and the day students choose the fifth. By advising the student members, the faculty representatives aid them in making wiser decisions.

The board's two main duties, to award varsity letters to those fellows who have shown commendable and satisfactory performance in one of the seven major sports, and to choose managers for the next year, are performed at the end of the three athletic sessions in December, March, and June. This board is evidence of the voice the students themselves have in the athletic system at Williston.

Football SCHEDULE

The football team this year did not have a sensational record. The team won one, tied one, and lost four. Nevertheless, a new fighting spirit was in evidence from the first game. Under the guidance of the new coach, D. W. Lash, we started the season with a game on October 11, with Suffield. An inexperienced Williston team journeyed to Suffield, and though outplayed, the latter won, 6-0.

Williston then played the host to Wilbraham on October 17. The powerful team that had an undefeated season was tied for the only blemish on its record by the surprising Wildcats. Barnhart took a short pass on a dead run from Czelusniak in the third quarter and eluding five Wilbraham defenders ran twenty yards to tie the score. Van Cott then place-kicked the extra point that tied the visitors, 7-7. "Buddy" Czelusniak's 70-yard punt was the other highlight of the game.

The Blue and Gold lost their third game when on October 24th a strong Amherst J. V.team was held to a 6-0 victory. "Jeff" Leary and Leon Waskiewicz,two prominent members of last year's squad, were stars for the J. V.'s.

Stockbridge invaded the fields of Sammy on the 31st of October, and by grabbing a 20-0 lead in the first half, completely trounced the fighting but inexperienced Williston team. However, the Blue and Gold played an excellent defensive game during the second half.

Williston then proceeded to Deerfield on November 7th and, handicapped by injuries that prevented Co-Captain Van Cott and fullback Scheibel from playing, lost to Deerfield 31-12. The Wildcats went down fighting, however, and scored twice in the last quarter when Barnhart made his second touchdown of the year on a pass from Chace. Czelusniak also scored on a cross-back.

A powerful and confident Mt. Hermon team that had just beaten Deerfield 6-0 invaded Sawyer Field on November 14th, and was beaten in a thrilling 13-12 game before a large crowd. Mt. Hermon scored in the second quarter after threatening many times. Williston then went ahead in the third quarter when "Buddy" Czelusniak scored on a forty-three-yard run-back of a punt. Van Cott place-kicked the extra point. A few minutes later Chace scored on a six-yard cut-back. Mt. Hermon scored again in the last quarter, but again missed the extra point.

Soccer

Molded by veteran coaches, D. D. Test and H. G. Boardman, Williston's soccer squad turned in a fairly successful record. Williston has to its credit a record of three wins, three losses, and two ties in eight starts.

In the initial game of the season with Suffield at that school, a red-hot contingent of Wildcats clawed the Suffield booters in a 9 to 0 victory for Sammy. Johnson, Laurent,' and McClelland each scored two goals, being adequately backed up by a stonewall of defensemen.

On October 14, at Galbraith Field, Williston tied Wilbraham 1 to 1. Although Wilbraham,scoring early in the first quarter, maintained their slender lead throughout most of the game, Johnson tied it up in the last minutes of the fourth canto.

Williston's soccer team lost its first game in three starts, 3 to 1, October 17, to the Amherst J.V.'s at Amherst. Both teams were evenly matched, and the game might have gone either way.

The Williston booters returned to the winning column with a 5 to 2 victory over Mass. State J.V.'s. Williston did not start to function until the last quarter when we chalked up two goals. Zink should be credited here with a beautiful angle shot that looped past a surprised goalie. This was on October 21.

The next game at Galbraith Field, on October 31, was with the Springfield College seconds. Despite brilliant defense work by Goalie Samble and Fullbacks Kennedy and Bosworth, Williston was nosed out 2 tc 1.

November 4, the Williston booters won their third victory at the expense of Monson Academy, 3 to 0, at that school. The final quarter was most exciting. Goalie Samble made a beautiful save as did his substitute, Baker. Hardy broke away and dribbled half the field to sink the final Williston tally.

The seventh Williston game was played on November 7 with Deerfield, there, resulting in a white-wash of the Wildcats 7 to 0. Although the score definitely shows that Williston was not as good a soccer team as Deerfield, Sammy's men were in there fighting all the way.

The final game of the season was played on Galbraith Field, November 14. In a biting cold and icy wind the Williston eleven held the fighting Mount Hermon combine to a scoreless tie. Captain Messenger was particularly outstanding in a brilliant game of offensive play that kept the Mount Hermon defensemen on their toes every single minute.

Paul Laurent deserves praise as being the main punch in the forward wall. Burton Johnson, despite his small size, was full of fight. Captain Richard Messenger played a solid, steady game that should be an example to more temperamental athletes. George Howe,center half-back, scored many of the foul shots for Williston.

Basketball

With three regular players returning from last year's season the 1943 basketball squad, coached by Dale W. Lash, notched nine victories in ten starts. In their first game Sammy's hoopsters registered a 32-29 victory over the Amherst Jayvees, bringing home the bacon in a thrilling overtime. Outstanding here was Czelusniak's great offensive playing.

Williston then journeyed to the Massachusetts State cage to play Stockbridge. With the exception of the first few minutes, until Barnhart started angling them up under the basket, our team's lead was never threatened.

Travelling to Wilbraham, Sammy's men chalked up their third win in a rough ballgame. It was the ability to hoop 'em in during the final seconds that made the score 30 to 25.

The .first home game, with Deerfield, proved to be very exciting. Both teams fought nip and tuck all the way, and the score was 38-38 in the last few minutes. The final gun sounded as Paul Laurent was awarded a foul shot. With the gym as quiet as a morgue and the spectators on the edge of their seats, Paul calmly stepped up to the foul line and sunk the shot that gave his team a 39-38 victory.

The next game with Monson proved to be a one-sided affair. Our red-hot team ran circles around the Monson outfit, leading 29-9 at the half. From there the second team took over. They did a most capable job, turning in a tally of 52-36 at the end.

Amherst Jayvees came to Easthampton primed to avenge their defeat earlier in the season. Amherst led all the way but Coach Lash's squad spurted in the last quarter and built up a five-point lead to win 30-25. It was Mason's stellar offensive and defensive work that enabled Williston to cop its sixth triumph.

Wilbraham traveled to Easthampton to be snowed under by the high-scoring Willistoq aggregation. Showing its great combination of offensive and defensive power, Williston avenged past defeats by beating Wilbraham 67-21. In this game Prescott, Barnhart, and Mason hit double figures with 19, 15, and 14 points respectively.

A highly-touted Suffield five came to Williston to try to knock our team out of the undefeated ranks. They failed. Williston built up in early lead and was never threatened. The final score of the game was 48-27.

The tall Mt. Hermon team was the next victim of the high-powered Williston attack. While Barnhart and Mason were playing a great offensive game, Sullivan was being spectacular on the defense. It was the combined efforts of these three that won the game for Williston 44-22.

Williston's successful season was somewhat spoiled by the defeat at the hands of Northampton High School in a post-season game. With two weeks of inactivity behind them the boys could not find their range and went down to defeat 34-31.

The 1943 season, although it was short, produced a well-rounded Williston team. Prescott and Czelusniak, the two forwards, were aggressive dead-eyes. Barnhart, the center, handled himself very well under the hoop. Sullivan and Mason, the guirds, did a stellar job of watching the home defenses. They both deserve high praise. They also shined offensively on occasion.

Hockey

Hockey suffered this year far more than other sports in respect to the number of games which could not be played. The Williston Wildcats, coached by the experienced William J. Lossone, were a speedy, well-skilled crew which had the tough break of losing both its Captain Robert Samble to scarlet fever and a stellar defense man, new to the school, Frank Higgins, to the armed forces.

We started our season with a practice game with Deerfield at that school on January 13. In this game the Williston aggregation outgunned the Green and White 4-1. The smashing power drives down the ice on the part of our wide-awake forwards and a shrewd job of goal-tending on the part of Steiger were responsible for the victory. In a return match we were downed by this same team, 3-0. gills was'on January 20; Williston was already beginning to feel the series of misfortunes which later dogged the footsteps of the hockey squad.

With a win and a loss under its belts, the Williston devil team went to Mt. Hermon. This game was one of the most sizzling and exciting of the entire season. Only the powerful defense work prevented the Hermonites from eking out a victory. Only the was particularly rough on the part of both teams. MacMillan did an especially solid job against the opponents, virtually hurling defiance to the elements.

Springfield Tech invaded Williston and was battled to a 5-5 stalemate before an enthusiastic crowd that later was forced to cover by a driving snowstorm. This game took place on January 30. The goalie is to be congratulated here, for the amount of scoring was only a small percentage of the tries made by the red-hot Springfield squad. On February 6, the Wildcats again invaded Deerfield to meet defeat with a 6-1 tally. By this time the Williston crew was buffeted badly by the bludgeonings of fate, so they can be pardoned readily for this failure.

Considering that the team was weakened by Captain Samble's illness and the loss of Frank Higgins, they played fast, hard hockey. Of special mention are Ralph Steiger, the goalie; Bob Leary, the stellar forward; and Ronald Pepin, Glenn Yeaton, Kip Chace, who formed the rapid-fire second line.

Baseball

As this article goes to press, the Williston nine is virtually untested, having played only one game. Journeying to Monson on April 17, the Blue and Gold won, 2,1, on an error and a hit by Morse. Morse's wallop was the only safe hit for Williston. The pitching, however, gave indications that here would lie Williston's strength for the year. Veteran John Prescott, in his first game of this season coupled with the arm of newcomer Bill Moody, showed great power. Between the two of them, only three hits were allowed.

The infield is faster than last year's. Despite the loss of many veteran players in this slot, all indications seem to point to a better rounded group this year than last. Catching is still strong and with two pitchers both very much on the ball, the supporters of the Wildcat nine need have nothing to fear regarding the battery. The outfield, which is filled with newcomers, is a little weak, but time will tell. Eisele, Czelusniak, Cleary, and Mason will fill 1, 2, 3 bases and shortstop respectively. The outstanding catching candidate is a former Holyoke High star, Sullivan. Barnhart, Smith, and Morse will be out in the field.

As to hitting, Czelusniak, Mason, and Sullivan seem to be above average. •In general the LasInnen form a well,rounded team and a long slate of triumphs_ can be predicted. The substitute players form an untapped reservoir of strength, outstanding ones being Bosworth, Conroy, Dyer, and Armstrong.

Track

Although at this writing the track season has by no means started, those versed in the lore of hurdles, javelin, and discus can with reasonable certainty predict the outcome of this year's events.

Mr. F. W. Putnam, Williston's veteran coach, can look forward to a team built about a sturdy backbone of returning varsity men. Malcolm Zink, George Howe, Philip Baker, Paul Laurent, and Robert Sanders were all outstanding members of last year's squad. This year all indications point to a repetition of their former performances.

Several of the new boys, and others new to track, are showing that new blood will run freely in the veins of the Williston wildcat. Outstanding among these is Art McGrath, a former member of the basketball squad, who shines in the broad jump and shows good form in the low hurdles.

George Howe, as always, remains peerless as the Blue and Gold's premier javelin hurler. In the realm of long-distance running, Williston's outstanding man is "Bunny" Baker. He will be remembered as the sensational new arrival to track last year. His form in the Kennedy meet this year showed no abatement a the powerful long-legged lope that won for him last year. Phil Crawford is another man to watch in the 880.

The Kennedy meet, the school's big intramural'track event, has been partly run off at this writing. Schneider took the broad jump; Baker the 880; Howe the 100-yard dash. These boys will bear watching in the first meet with Wilbraham May 8. Despite transportation difficulties, track carries on with two telephonic meets scheduled for this year.

Varsity Tennis

The prospect of the Williston tennis team looks promising this spring. With four returning lettermen and new recruits the racketmen should make a good showing.

The war has again curtailed the season's athletics, but the number on a tennis team being limited, transportation is made easier. Matches may well be played as in other years for this reason.

Coach A. L. Hepworth has mentioned the possibility of a four- or five-man team, which could be carried about in one car to the various schools. He is hoping in this way to fill up more of the season.

From the preliminary practice, a large amount of which was carried on in the gymnasium, much talent seems available. Headed by Captain Bill Peters—also captain last spring—the veterans include Pat Meany, Al Henderson, and Kip Chace. These four players were on the Varsity last year, and with experience gained during summer and fall participation they should make good records again in the present season.

Of the new hopefuls this spring three boys are outstanding, Rudd Falconer, Harry Maher, and Jim MacFarland. They have all played a good deal of tennis before entering Williston, and MacFarland practiced with the team last year while a member of the Junior School. Others may also show particular merit as the season progresses.

Coach Hepworth is aided by Mr. R. V. Burdick, and they have been shaping the team well. Their season, opening on April 28, should be a successful one.

Cheer Leaders

This year the school spirit reached a new peak. Chiefly the efforts of Thomas Neale, William Best, and David Sinclair brought this. about. In chapel, on the day of the game, our cheer leaders made announcements about the game, then had the school join in giving roof-lifting cheers. Between these cheers, the captains gave little speeches. Then just before the game, a snake-line was formed at the old campus, and our cheer leaders led the school to the stands on the field.

The rally before the Deerfield game, the traditional game, was especially notable. The cheer leaders added many new features to the rally Friday night. The affair was climaxed by a snake dance of the entire school down to Mr. Galbraith's house. Throughout the game the cheer leaders did an excellent job in leading the student body through the school cheers and songs.

If men under the "Stars and Stripes- succeed in establishing the freedom of worship throughout the world, they will have accomplished one of the greatest triumphs in the history of the world. We who live in a country which houses a hundred religions rarely think of our religious privileges. In many countries, however, man's most sacred thing has been abused by men who force upon their people the religion of war and the worship of state.

The Junior School

Until 1916 Payson Hall had been used as a dormitory for the students of Williston Academy. In that year, however, Mr. John Howard Ford donated a large amount of money to the school for a new dormitory. The boys formerly residing in Payson occupied this new hall. As there was then an unoccupied dormitory, Headmaster Sawyer founded the Williston Junior School as an experiment, and the students of this new school occupied Payson Hall. In 1929, when it became necessary to take over Payson again for the use of the expanding upper school, the Junior School students moved into two other buildings: the old Williston Cottage and the newly-erected Sawyer House. Behind the cottage was built a small schoolhouse so that the grounds might be complete.

Today the Junior School, capably guided by Dr. Edward R. Clare, is in most respects a separate unit from the Academy. However, the Junior School is under the directorship of Mr. Galbraith and the Williston Board of Trustees. Furthermore, the forty loWer school boys have their meals at Payson Hall, one of the dining halls of the upper school, and they also have the use of the Recreation Center.

In addition to the regular scholastic activities, the boys are taught dancing, drawing, and manual training. Football, soccer, basketball, hockey, skiing, and baseball are all conducive to the betterment of the physical condition of the students, and also provide enjoyable recreation.

Although the entire faculty of 1941-1942, with the exception of Mr. Clare, went into the armed services, the school has been fortunate in obtaining teachers capable of maintaining its high standards. A Junior School graduate, having received exceptional academic and social training, should do extremely well at any preparatory school which he chooses to attend.

The Williston Calendar

Since 1938 the "Log" Board has published a pictorial Williston calendar. The publication and sale of the calendar was started to raise money for the Centennial "Log" of 1941. It has become so popular that it is continued as a sort of project by the board and any profits from its sale are used to help publish the current "Log." In addition to selling nearly five hundred calendars this year the board sent seventy-five to Williston boys in service, and their response by letters shows a high appreciation.

Our Flag stands for freedom from want. The denizens of all conquered countries now look to the "Red, White and Blue" as a hope for freeing them from the chains of evil men who have deprived them of all necessities of life. Without plenty of food or clothing, one loses faith, is kept in constant fear and cannot live a creative life. Thus, to enjoy our freedom, we must share among all nations the products of our farms and factories.
