The Babe aptly classed Rich Rand as an
"ape long overdue for the barber shop.”
From his arrival in the ninth grade, Rand
has continually fooled the whole class with
his beat haircut. On a Saturday afternoon
Rich is most likely in Ladd’s, exhibiting his
dexterity with one or all of his three in
struments —- the banjo, the gazoo, and the
mouth organ. On weekends, Rich can be seen
through a cloud of smoke, drinking a cup
of expresso at the Unicorn in Boston. Dur
ing his four years at M. B., he was an avid
supporter of the Physical Fitness Program
and the Proscenium Club. In the spring, he
did his last push-up under the tyrannical re
gard of Billy Eckstein. Afternoons in the win
ter of ’63-64, Rich ranted and raved at Fain
as only a great Thespian can. Someday Rich
will be M. B.’s answer to the Greenbriar
Boy’s Bob Yellin.

Under questionable political leadership, our
class has argued its way through three won
derful deficit-ridden years. Through it all,
A1 was noted for his not-too-dirty pressure
politics and his persuasive vote-getting tech
niques. His most brilliant idea by far, how
ever, was the Jolly Poets’ Club. This worth
while organization has generated much heat
ed fanaticism among its members and has
provoked considerable discussion among
others. In fact, it was rumored at one point
that Mr. Sulloway’s subcommittee on Un-
American activities was conducting an in
vestigation, until A.W.S. showed up at a
meeting, crying fervently, "Jolly, Jolly, ’tis
no folly.” A1 has also been active in other
groups: he is an original Moth, and he has
also made some attempt to restore a certain
rival publication to a position of impor
tance. In class, in chapel, at football rallies,
everywhere, A1 has displayed the spark of
originality and non-conformity that has
marked our class as a whole.
