In pubilarilng tne 1955 Dwight Scroll the editorial

staff has been confronted with three alms. First, the staff

wishes to congratulate the school on its seventy-fifth

birthday. Secondly, it feels it it:s auty to present to the

members of the graduating class a book which will provide a

panorama of four years at Dwight. Finally, it wants to

present to the student body a book which will represent this

past year.

The Editorial Staff sincerely wishes the school its

heartiest congratulations upon achieving seventy-five years

in educational endeavor. From the halcyon days when Dwight

(School of the Classical and English Languages) presided

over the precincts of the less plebeian realms of 43rd Street

and Broadway to this day, where it is ensconced among insti­

tutions literary and medical, its aim has been to provide a

In science and math Mr. Hurry

Seems ever to be in a scurry

To give us the schemes

For our fondest dreams:

To get through without further worry.

Mr. Curry, In his quiet way.

Has a great deal of something to say.

If it's "next term" or "flunk".

You know you are sunk.

So - take it sans further dismay,*

Our math teacher, Mr. Ted Jones,

Is not one to make any bones

Over surds or quadratics

Or test acrobatics.

Just watch for his sweet undertones,';

Mr. Klein, whom we love as a coach.

Has never been hard to approach

For advice that would rally

Us up to a tally

For a record that none can reproach.

From Harold J. Murray a "dat©”

Should be quit© enough to elate

A student who's serious.

Then gets delirious

Over his predestined fate.’

In physics or chem, there's no doubt,

Colonel Myron leaves not one thing out.

In class or in lab

There's no chance to crab.

This guy knows what he's about,'

Harold B. Putney, it’s true,

Will tell you boys just what to do,

fie struggles and tussles

And then strains all muscles

To give you a real, honest clue.

In American history or World

Mr. Weissman has surely unfurled

The trends and events

Of our leading gents.

And in bio the reasons untwirled.

A review of the 1954 baseball season would be nore weather report than baseball since half of our schedule was lost to the weather man. However, the team did produce two notable victories and the season was enjoyed by the members of tlie team.

If the weather is favorable, tne prospects for the 1955 season looK better. We have holdovers from the 1964 team: Arthur Rankin, Bob Melvin, Seymour Glaser, Stan Heath and Allan Slatkin. The addition of Joe Dacchille and Pred Rittereiser should give us a fine battery.

Games have been scheduled with the following schools: Brooklyn Academy, Barnard, Friends Seminary, Kew Forest, Bedford Park Academy, Columbia Grammar and Rhodes.

The baseball team is looking forward to an even more successful record than that of this year’s basketball, to whom we offer our congratulations.
