SENIOR MASTER

Mr. Lincoln D. Granniss

HEADMASTER

Mr. Phillips Stevens

Mr. Lincoln Depew Granniss, senior class adviser and wise counselor of undergraduates, truly represents the. high educational standards for which Williston Academy has been noted for more than a third of a century. An excellent instructor, a strict disciplinarian, and yet always a sympathetic friend, he is held in high regard by those who sit in his Latin classes, who come under his influence in the dormitory and those who work with him in the school's "y" cabinet.

In his short tenure as headmaster, Mr. Phillips Stevens has had a phenominal success in executing the plans which he has set up for the future of Williston. He has shown a great faith and trust in the students and has introduced a well organized student-governing system in the school. Almost single-handed he has succeeded in putting into motion the long-discussed plans for unifying the school on one campus. His friendliness and affability make him a respected leader. In his enthusiasm and determination to increase the efficiency and usefulness of Williston he has gained the admiration of all.

To Lincoln Depew Grannis, senior master, and to our new headmaster, Phillips Stevens, who hold a high place in our esteem, we respectfully dedicate the 1950 Log.

Preface

The school year, 1949-1950, has gone down as a remarkable and interesting year in the annals of Williston's history. It has been the beginning of a new administration and the planning of a concentrated academy on the new campus. Although we, the graduates of Williston this year, will not be able to enjoy the benefits of being on one campus, we have sufficient vision to know that the one-campus idea will be most profitable to the school.

The theme of this yearbook is "from the old to the new" showing at each divisional page the fading out of the old campus and a centralization of the new. However, in our preparation for college life there have been many memories which will never be forgotten. It is the purpose of this yearbook to recreate the remembrances of school life in the dormitories, athletic fields, classrooms, and other activities.

Thus, as we leave school, we remember one of the happiest times of our lives was spent in the halls of Williston. Also we, the seniors of 1950, wish to thank the underclassmen, the faculty, and others associated with the school for helping to make our life at Williston Academy one of happiness linked with a preparation for future success.

TO ERECT this building,it was necessary to move a church. The expenses were assumed to move the church by Mr. Williston, and the building was erected in 1865.

MISS GRACE E. BASCOME, R.N.

The resignation of Miss Bascome, Williston's first school nurse, brings to a close a long and valuable service to the school. She came to Williston in 1923 with training and experience that prepared her well for the work of establishing a school infirmary. After twenty-seven years of untiring and unselfish vigil over the health of Williston boys, she said "This has been my life."

For ten years the infirmary was located in a part of the house adjacent to Payson Hall, then it was moved to its present location in Ford Hall. With the exception of the first four years, Miss Bascome has had an assistant to relieve her of some of her duties.

None connected with Williston Academy have been more serious and conscientious in their work than Miss Grace E. Bascome. Similarly, it can be said that no one has been more happy, more cheerful and inspiring than she.

It is with much regret that we must say farewell to her at the end of this school year.

The Senior Class of 1950 extents very best wishes to Miss Bascome for continued good health and happiness.

:11:A IN THE SHADOW OF THE PINES - - THE HOMESTEAD.

Nr- ;NAL_ 4-,•L WHEREIN WE PRESENT OUR

'• CLUBS AND ORGANIZATIONS

YMCA CABINET

Mr. G ranniss

0NE OF THE OLDEST organizations at Williston, the "Y" Cabinet had completed a successful year in attending to its principal duties of being the school charitable organization and of providing for the recreational needs of the students. A part of the school life, almost since Williston's inception, the "Y" Cabinet was originally founded as a religious activity, though it had since deviated somewhat from the original, with a more broadened scope of activity.

As always, the "Y" Cabinet under the excellent supervision of it's faculty advisor, Mr. Grannis, sponsored the popular "Buck" party, and several dances, including a new feature, the Shipwreck dance. The "Y" Cabinet also provided refreshments at many school events, and also maintained the Williston cabin.

The welfare and charitable activities were not disregarded by any means, as the "Y" Cabinet conducted, throughout the year the Golden Rule dinners, clothing drives, and collections of money for students in war torn countries.

The members of the "Y" Cabinet certainly deserve the plaudits of all who benefited from their numerous activities.

THIS YEAR THE STUDENT governing body, the Student Council, though undertaking a great many more obligations than in the past, did a remarkable job.

Unlike in previous years when the council's duties were limited to bed checks, the milk line and a few other tasks, the council was in charge of the dorms, study-halls, two o'clock sessions and several more undertakings. This naturally meant a greater effort on the part of the council members, yet they freely gave of their time.

The additional duties of the council were in line with the student government plan of Mr. Stevens. He has, indeed, reason to be proud of its success, and also of the student body who cooperated so admirably with the council.

STUDENT COUNCIL

MUSIC CLUB

T HIS YEAR MARKED the opening of the Music Club as an official extra-curricular activity. Ambitious students, anxious to learn the "whys and wherefores" about music, have gotten together to form a group, directed by Mr. Curtiss.

Each Sunday Mr. Curtiss gave a short speech pertaining to some component of fine music. He then followed by illustrating his points either on the piano or on record, indicating the more subtle points as he proceeded.

There is little doubt as to the tremendous amount of musical knowledge which Mr. Curtiss turned over to the members of the club. Everything from Bach to Be-Bop was accurately discussed, with the necessary distinction between good and bad artistry clearly defined. Such knowledge is of prime importance if enjoyment is to be obtained from listening to the various types of music which are extant in the world today.

0NE OF THE MOST interesting of the extra-curricular activities is the Adelphi-Gamma Sigma, an organization of long standing, through which many generations ot polemical-minded and argumentative Willistonites have had a chance to express their varying opinions on almost every conceivable topic worthy of debate. From the Spanish-American War to the New Deal, the Adelphi Room in Middle hall has resounded with the earnest voices of politicians and philosophers who like to argue.

The Adelphi is not just a formal session in which the individual may air his gripes; it is a highly educational experience in learning how to think and express oneself concerning important and controversial issues applicable to the world in which we must take an active part. Colleges look for students with originality and individuality; hence the Adelphi gives a splendid opportunity to develop these characteristics.

This year especially, the Adelphi has been noteworthy, particularly from the standpoint of change. In the past, the activities have been limited to the formal debate, but this year an innovation was made to include the informal round-table discussion and the impromptu debate. These teach the student to think quickly and hence develop his mind further.

The officers of this year's organization for the first half year were: Bob Sammis, President; Tom Cottrell, Vice-President; and Mike Ginsberg, Secretary-Treasurer. Those for the last half year included: Basil Petricca, President; Bill Snyder, Vice-President; and again Mike Ginsberg as Secretary-Treasurer.

Sitting, left to right: Haliday, Sammis, Petricca, Ginsberg, Maury. Standing: Boyer, Van Zandt, Richter, Galbraith, Beaudry, Russell, Brown, Cottrell, Simpson, Snow, Baker.

THE GLEE CLUB, certainly, one of the most popular and representative of our organizations, carried on a program wider in scope and much more strenuous this year than in former years. Led by Mr. Teller, aided and accompanied by Mr. Curtiss, they had many outside concerts and rendered two concerts for the school in league with the two girl's schools in Northampton.

First row, left to right: Robbins, Highley, Steve:, Labbee, Doolittle (CoManager), Stewart (President), Mr. Teller (Director), Mr. Curtiss (Accompanist), D. Cook (Co-Manager), Wight, McHugh, Lunn, Landau, Sands, McGregor. Second row: Baker, Marchetti, Linzell, Stiles, Eliot, Dunstan, Haliday, Pope, Rouse, Kusell, Horton, Shoup, Rosner, Barber, Talcott, Island, LoConte, Marchand, Amidon. Third row: Resnic, Morrow, Cohen, Hanrahan, Howland, Lewis, Doe, Dunbar, M. West, Galbraith, Marco, Geruso, McNiff. Fourth row: T. Gordon, Taylor, Perkins, Elkins, Burke, Cook, C. Levin, Van Zandt, Goodyear, Bennett, Bosworth, Durant, Maier.

Mr. Teller, Director

Mr. Curtiss, Accompanist.

Besides the regLlar club, we again saw the emergence of a smail chorus, doing more difficult pieces, and a double quartet which held special concerts, rendering such pieces befitting much study and expression. An unusually fine organization, they have added much to school life and to the prestige and influence of our school In neighboring communities.

Earl N. Johnston Faculty Adviser

Log Assistants

THE LOG IS THE lasting representation of a year at Williston, a crowning achievement for the Senior Class. It provides a medium for the expression and activity of the many students who share in it's publication. Into the Log go the summary of a school year, hard work and final satisfaction.

Here, as in the school paper, the whole burden does not fall on one leader's shoulders. Divided into different departments, each having a separate job, the result becomes a co-ordination of four departments in the production of one book.

This year, as in previous ones, the editors have attempted to make an outstanding issue, adding all, necessities, deleting any extraneous matter, and re-organizing many of the sections. The ultimate outcome of these hard months of labor is what we sincerely hope to be one of the best Logs ever published at Williston since the Log began in 1902.

The Williston Band has always been a great moral booster; it plays at all home football games (and usually away at Wilbraham), at night basketball games, and at pep rallies and Buck Parties.

Naturally, the Band is among the first of the activities organized immediately upon the opening of the Fall Term. The Band has grown greatly year by year, and although Capece, Johnson, Lunn, and Rosner will graduate this spring, there is a strong nucleus of younger musicians to carry on; it is hoped that there will be more additions to the Band next Fall.

It is interesting to mention that fine Band members—Resnic, Geruso, Buffum, Lunn, and Harrington—formed their own dance orchestra to play at dances and rallies.

Much appreciation goes to Mr. Henry Teller, who has directed the Band for the last three years. Mr. Teller is confident that in the future the Band will enlarge and carry on its unbroken tradition of good music.

THE SCIENCE CLUB

The Science Club of Williston Academy with Mr. Bray and Mr. English as faculty advisers and Ted Bosworth as President; Bob Couch as Vice-President; Bill Snyder as Secretary; and Ellis Baker as treasurer, have succeeded in bringing many notable lecturers to talk to the club members. The main purpose of this club is to do research and projects in science. Mr. Bray takes charge of the weather instructions and Mr. English has charge of instructing the radio section in the Morse Code and the principles of radio. The club meets two evenings each month and in the near future a complete course in automobile motor construction will be given. The club has had an enjoyable time this year and expects to continue the work next year.

DRAMATIC CLUB

". and I se:,

upl" Curtain Call

PERHAPS THE MOST popular of school events is the annual production presented by the Dramatic Club. Through immense analyses and eliminations, actors-to-be are selected from the mass of candidates which apply for parts in this production. Those that are chosen are then subjected to the seemingly endless task of learning their parts. To add interest and talent, the "Mask and Wig" Society of the Northampton School for Girls annually combines with the Williston Dramatic Club to produce this play. Mr. Boardman, with the able help of Mr. Nossman once again patiently strove to produce the final result. The success of the play proclaimed him and the actors a fine group.

Yet perhaps too often forgotten is the work done by the stage crew and electricians. The stage crew once again set up and tore down the stage; yet this year eleven of its members actually participated on stage in the production of "Arsenic and Old Lace." They entered the stage as eleven ghosts, followed by Mr. Boardman as the twelfth. The whole added a fine final effect to the play. The lighting done by the electricians was very notable, producing wonderful effects.

THE PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB, in its third year as an organized activity, is made up of the competent photographers of Williston. They usually furnish the pictures for the Log and the Willistonian. Meeting every other Wednesday night, the club usually has movies or speakers which concern the various subjects of printing, developing, enlarging, and other tricks of photography. The Club has purchased, with the dues collected at the meetings and contributions of its members, better and more advanced equipment for its exclusive use in the Payson Hall darkroom.

By the hard work and interest of Paul Marko, President, John Bruno, Vice-President, and Tom Cottrell, Secretary-Treasurer, with the assistance of Mr. Luce, advisor, the Photography Club has become a highly successful and popular organization which has contributed a large amount of the over-all pictures of activities at Williston.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB

THE WILLISTUNIAN

F OR YEARS THE Willistonian has presented school events in an admirably-journalistic fashion. Sports, extra-curricular activities, dances, and other phases of school life have been efficiently telescoped into interesting, informative reading material. This information has been preented with the addition of pertinent photographs to convey a picture of the actual happenings which took place. Such a method of representation is invaluable to the person.

The success of any newspaper depends chiefly on three things: First, the quality of the photographs must be excellent and specifically related to the subject involved. Second, the articles and write-ups must be done in ideal journalistic fashion, being as clear, as concise, and as informative as possible. Third, the paper must be run by a group of individuals who can procure the cooperation needed to produce a good newspaper. The 1950 Willistonian Staff has certainly fulfilled these three particulars to exactness. The high quality of the Willistonian has been wonderfully maintained this year, as it will doubtless be in the future.

CHEERLEADERS

Sports at Williston have always been aided from the sidelines by an omnipresent crowd, and this year was no exception. To coordinate the efforts of this crowd was the job of the Cheerleaders. Leading old cheers at games and rallies, making up new cheers, and in general, boosting the morale of the school is an important job capably handled this year by Barry Levin, Bruce Brown, Jerry Adelson, Tex Heavens, Dick Dunbar, and Bob Barber. Rallies, bonfires, parades, and united cheering at games were all achieved through the concerted effort of the Cheerleaders.

Although the 1949 Williston football team, led by Co-Captains Ray Moylan and Bob Anderson, completed the season without a victory, every game was closely contested, and at least two of the defeats could have been turned into victories for the Blue and Gold.

The Wildcats inaugurated the season by losing to a heavy Vermont Academy squad, 13-12, on the Galbraith Field. The fqllowing Saturday, the Lashmen traveled to Mt. Hermon to meet one of the best prep school teams in Massachusetts. In losing, 27-13, the Lashmen gave a good account of themselves.

In the game against Loomis on Galbraith Field, which ended in a scoreless tie, the Wildcats had the victory many times within their grasp but failed to score. In the last half, Williston had the ball on the Loomis one-yard line, but was unable to push it over.

On the day of the Induction of Mr. Stevens, a fighting Blue and Gold squad was defeated by a much heavier Deerfield eleven, 25-13. In the final game against Wilbraham at Wilbraham, the Wildcats fought hard against a strong Wilbraham team before going down to defeat, 13-7.

Ted Hollingworth and Dale Cleveland were elected Co-Captains for next year.

SOCCER

The 1949 Soccer team compiled a good seasonal record of five victories and three losses. Under the excellent coaching of Messrs. Babcock and Waskiewicz the Wildcats defeated a fast Monson team, 1-0, after a week's practice. The second game found a confident Deerfield team with an unblemished record of over two years suffering defeat in the final six seconds of play.

Suffield fell for the third successive Williston win. Worcester penetrated the strong defense of the Babcockmen, but fell under a first-half onslaught, 3-1. The pitchmen then traveled to Amherst where the college freshmen team scored early, 2-0. The University of Massachusetts freshmen showed fine spirit, but lacked defensive power, the booters scoring in the first period and won 1-0.

Mt. Herman proceeded to trip the Wildcats in one of the best played games of the year. Wilbraham managed to set the team back on a single score late in the game.

BASIJETBALL

ON JANUARY 7, 1950, Williston opened its basketball season by beating Vermont in a close thriller, 41-40. The hopes raised thereof were quickly dimmed, however, when Williston lost its next four games to Amherst J.V.'s, Amherst Frosh, Suffield, and Cranwell respectively. The latter game was a close shave for Cranwell, as they won on overtime alone. The Williston Quintet struck back for a two-game winning streak, downing Mt. Hermon and happily Deerfield, thereby raising Williston's morale once again. Monson and Wilbraham then tripped up our fighting five; however, Loomis was defeated on our home court. After our loss to Mt. Hermon, Williston closed its basketball season with three consecutive wins. In the post-season tilt, the Alumni bested our first squad in a night clash.

Under the able leadership of Coach Waskiewicz, marked improvement was shown throughout the season; Williston had a good, clean basketball team of which it can be proud.

Hockey

HINDERED

BY A LACK of ice and seasoned reserves, Coach Lossone's hockey team turned in a poor season with a total of no victories and three defeats. However the squad put up a spirited fight against the overwhelming odds of the opposition.

After a favorable showing at the Hamilton College Tournament, the first line, comprised of Cleveland, Moore, and Captain Hardon, never seemed to be able to find that scoring punch. The second line, Couch, Moriarty and Elkins, proved capable under the conditions. Also, the defensive combination of Johnson and Anderson broke up many a scoring drive. Al Shuttleworth, a utility man, was effective in every position. Furthermore, many a sensational save was made by Ekblom and Robbins at the goalie position. With more ice next year the returning letter-men ought to have a successful season.

This year, the ski team had more of a chance of prove its worth than in the preceding couple of relatively snowless winters. With an excellent group of underclassmen on the team, there is a good nucleus for next winter. The four top skiers—Openshaw and Schrager on jumping and salom, Harrington on salom and cross-country, and Pope on jumping and downhill—backed by an able group of second-flight boys, will all return to do their part.

The ski-slope, on the side of Mt. Tom, is a good one; the jumping has been improved year by year, and the slope has been widened to accommodate the increasing number of boys interested in the sport.

Coach Babcock and Assistant Coach Hall say they are confident that Williston's future teams will carry on the good work done this winter.

Though at the time this is being written, no games have yet been played, it appears that Coaches Lash and Gebhard are molding a highly capable club.

Five lettermen have returned to form the nucleus of this year's team, including a completely veteran outfield: Cliff Johnson, Ed Anderson, Fred Eaton, Mary Tucker, and Captain Al Shuttleworth. These men along with several promising newcomers, foremost of whom are Tommy Knight and Tommy St. John, appear to be strong enough to pace a winning team.

With a measure of luck, this year's squad should easily better last year's record, and prove to be one of the best in the past few years.

Track at Williston has always been a sport which has gathered athletic laurels galore in the years' sports events. This year, led by Co-Captains Bill Wenk and "Monk" Cleveland, Williston should have a team that will carry on the tradition of the "winningest" sport. Although a number of valuable men were lost to last year's graduates, Coach Putnam's cindermen should prove to be as big a threat this year as they have in the past five years, during which time they have won twenty-three meets while dropping two, and capturing the coveted Interscholastic Trophy for the last two years running.

Sat. 3—Alumni Captain—John R. Bruno

The tennis team has not yet opened its season, but it appears that the team will fare well.

Captain John Bruno the number one man for the past three years is back and looking better than ever. Aiso back from last year's team are Nick Andreson and Pete Taylor. New to the tennis team this year and looking very good are D. Cook, Spencer, and Richter. Three men have come up from last year's second team, and they are Marchand, Cramer and Levin.

So far the line up this year reads as follows: at the number one spot is John Bruno, number two man is Nick Andreson., in number three position is Pete Taylor, number four Erich Cramer, number five is Spencer, and number six is Fred Richter.

From this nucleus Coach Hepworth should be able to build a team of hard-smashing players.

T

HROUGH THE combined efforts of members of the coaching staff and four students, the 1949-50 Athletic Advisory Board did its usually fine job in guiding Williston's athletics. The chief duty of the Board after the close of the fall, winter, and spring athletic seasons is to choose the boys who should receive athletic letters. Varsity managers for the following year are also suggested. North, South, and Ford Halls each elect a member, with the day students adding a fourth.

The entire school owes the Athletic Advisory Board a word of praise for its splendid work this year.

ATHLETIC ADVISORY BOARD

MINIM ATHLETICS

Unlike• many other schools, Williston has an extensive system of minor athletics. This system offers to all boys an opportunity to participate in some form of competitive sports throughout the school year.

Each season a student has a wide choice of athletics, ranging from football in the fall to tennis in the spring. Each and every minor team competes actively with other schools.

In all sports, full equipment is provided along with competent instruction. Each boy is placed on a team according to his size and ability, so as to give him the fullest opportunity to play against other boys under equal conditions.

Williston's minor athletics program has proved to be a sound basis for future varsity competition as shown by boys who have improved sufficiently to merit awards.
