                  Two  years  ago  Tom  Martin  screeched  to  a  halt  at  the  gates
                of  M.B.  as  a  renowned  genius  from  North  Providence  High,  and
                was  almost  immediately  stunned  into  academic  awareness.  Deep
                research  as to the origin  of his  nickname,  "Squirrel,"  has  unearthed
                the  following  hypotheses;  I)  he  makes  a  habit  of  burying  his  books
                under  the  oak  trees  outside  Friends  Hall  and  promptly  forgetting
                them;  2)  he  arrived  one  day  at  school  with  a  hand  sprained  from
                his  arduous  efforts  to  chase  a  female  squirrel  up  a  tree.  This  latter
                theory  seems  the  more  likely,  for  we  all  know  Tom  is  a  diligent
                student  with-  a  love  for  that  laughing  outdoor  life.  "Squirrel"  is
                a  member of the  Ski  Patrol  and  a  karate  expert whose efforts  were
                brought  to  fullest  fruition  in  the  Proscenium  Club  wrestling  scene;
                but  automobiles,  especially  a  certain  M.B.  (Mercedes-Benz),  mark
                him as our class's number one flash-merchant.






                                       ERIC  DAVID  MATISON
                 Camera  Club,  IV,  V;  Chess  Club,  III,  IV,  VI;  Lacrosse,  Manager  IV;  Mosaic,
                 VI;  Swimming,  III,  IV,  V,  VI;  Tennis,  III,  IV,  V,  VI;  Spring  Track,  III,  IV,  V,  VI;
                 U.N. Club, VI;  Rocket Club, V.
                   A   truly  aristocratic  Mississipian,  Eric  joined  the  unique  society
                 of  the  M.B.  boarding  department  as  a  freshman.  A   noted  sports
                 aficionado  throughout  his  four  years  at  M.B.,  Eric  has  been
                 attracted  by  such  sports  as  fall  tennis,  winter  swimming  in  the
                 "bathtub",  and  spring  track.  In  the  classroom,  Eric  is  down-to-
                 earth  and  hard-working,  and  he  is  always  ready  to  give  Mr.  Ran-
                 some  ample  information  concerning  the  South's  role  in  American
                 history.  Next  fall,  Eric  will  refurn  to  the  South  for  college,  and
                we are  sure that while  he  is  diligently  pursuing  his  studies,  he'll  also
                 be  busy  enjoying  that  good  ole  Southern  way  of  life.  Long  after
                 he  has  left  the  ivied  walls  of  M.B.,  Eric  will  be  remembered  for
                those immortal words,  "The South will rise again!"

                   If  you  ever  see  a  guy  walking  along  wearing  sneakers,  white
                levis,  a  beret  at  a  rakish  tilt,  a  coat  with  the  collar  turned  up,  and
                a transistor radio  in  hand,  the chances are good that it's Glenn  Mc-
                Crea.  "M cCroo"  is  "plenni  flash  guy."  An  avid  guitarist,  record
                collector,  radio  fan,  and  Supreme  lover,  Glenn's  lively  spirit  and
                vibrant  personality  make  him  an  asset  to  any  social  gathering,
                several  of  which,  we  are  told,  he  attends  weekly.  Lest  you  think
                Glenn's  only  asset  is  his  personality,  take  heed.  As  a  long  time
                star  on  Doc's  cross  country  and  winter  and  spring  track  teams,
                and  as  a  participant  in  Mr.  Coan's  Geometry  and  Mr.  Sulloway's
                English  courses,  Glenn  has  established  a  well  earned  reputation
                as a hard worker.
