Dedication

The staff of the Dwight Scroll is especially proud and happy that the dedicatee for our yearbook this year is Mr. “Coach” Muzio. Himself an outstanding athlete both in his high school and later at New York University, Mr. Muzio has almost miraculously transformed Dwight, a small school in comparison to many others, into one whose teams have surprised everyone by their excellence and brought plaudits from the experts. In his earth and general science classes he has instilled a freshness of approach and piqued the curiosity of his students. His gym classes, too, have inculcated in us a conception of the importance of physical fitness and the spirit of fair play.

But in a larger sense, it is not merely as coach and teacher par excellence that we hail Michael Muzio. It is even more because as the exemplar of clean living and far-reaching broadmindedness, he has provided for all Dwight students (includ­ing those who may not have been in one of his classes) a mode of living and believing worthy of our emulation.

In keeping with the circus theme of this book, may we record next to the name if Mr. Michael Muzio — STRONGMAN!

MR. WINTON L. MILLER, JR.H e a d m a s t e r

TO THE GRADUATES OF 1964 The circus theme of this yearbook underscores the necessity for

maintaining a sense of humor, a balance that will enable you to meet adversities on even ground. The degree of success each of you has attained in the time you have been at Dwight reflects to some extent the interest, care, and encouragement of your teachers and advisers. As you enter college, and later the world of work, you will find that more and more you alone will have to make those decisions, take those steps which will carry you ever toward your goal. It is our earnest wish that you will understand always that no obstacle is insurmountable and that for every problem there is a solution. It has been said that a clever man can benefit from misfortune, whereas a fool might turn even good luck to his disadvantage. Yet the man who is most successful is the one who does not think of luck — good or bad — but makes the best use of his own resources.

HENRY L. CREHAN A d m i n i s t r a t i v e A s s i s t a n t

This distinguished Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard prefers to be called “Doc” as he feels his key is equal to any other college’s Ph.D. The member longest on our staff, he once taught French. He is our alert fire marshal and piano virtuoso at assemblies.

“You mean there are other colleges besides Harvard?”

DORIS B. POST R e g i s t r a r ; M u s i c ; E n g l i s h

The person in charge of attendance, report cards, and transcripts is Mrs. Post. We can thank her for our college applica­tions being sent out on time. A graduate of the University of Oklahoma and Columbia, she finds time to teach English masterfully to the freshmen and to direct a first-rate Glee Club.

“Silence”

HELEN E. HARMS S e c r e t a r y

The jack-of-all-trades of Dwight is Miss Harms. She runs the office to preci­sion and keeps a weather eye out for im­proper attire. Almost anything a student requires can be obtained from Miss Harms — only don’t come into the office during class hours!

“Never let your education interfere with your social life. You might be a success if you do.”

S t u d i e s

One of the most understanding teachers at l>wight, Mr. Asch is <mr guidance coun­selor. He provra his versatility by teaching English, Russian, and psychology — and all very well. The Student Council and this Scroll also have his guidance.

“A good man makes his own oppor­tunities.”

ERWIN FLAXMAN E n g l i s h ; S o c i a l S t u d i e s

This was Mr. Flaxman’s first year at Dwight but a very enjoyable and profit­able one for his students. Having come to us from Temple University, he “taught us the ropes”. He also advised the Drama Club and with us enjoyed some Broadway productions.

“Education is insurance for success in life.”

CLIVE T. MILLER E n g l i s h

Another first year teacher at Dwight, the sophomores and juniors in his classes swear by rather than at him, for despite his youthfulness he is dedicated. He’s the author of a novel, This Passing Night, and he advises the newspaper.

“For life’s not a paragraph, and death, I think, is no parenthesis.”

NIS ADOLPH PETERSEN S o c i a l S t u d i e s

A graduate of Columbia University, he is well-known for his interesting and vivid classes in history, economics, and sociology. Most students agree that both Mr. Petersen and his classes are top-notch. He advises Debating and the Honor Com­mittee.

“Never trust an honest hoy.”

L O U I S A. MONTE L i b r a r i a n ; L a t i n ; E n g l i s h

This young-looking member of the faculty is the sponsor of the Senior Class. As librarian he has answered our questions with patience and erudition. And he’s a whiz in Latin and intensive grammar. This year he was also co-sponsor of the Honor Committee.

“Two ears but one mouth: so listen twice as much as you speak.”

JAMES F. SCULLY F r e n c h ; S p a n i s h

Mr. Scully’s love of language is in­fectious, and he inspires an incentive that is hard to match. A graduate of La Salle University and the University of Pennsyl- vania, he is known for his infinite patience. He is Sophomore Class adviser.

OTIS B. HURRY M a t h e m a t i c s

A most sympathetic and understanding teacher, Mr. Curry ranges from elementar)’ algebra to the calculus and descriptive geo­metry of Academy Math. A math or per­sonal problem can always be solved in room 4B. But he takes a dim view of books left in lockers.

“And then the school boy . . . creeping like a snail unwillingly to school."

THEODORE A. JONES M a t h e m a t i c s

This distinguished gentleman is a gra­duate of the University of London. A proud grandfather five times over, he puts up with no banter in his classroom. Though he treks to Dwight from New Jersey daily, he is always hearty, witty, and a great help to plodders in trig and advanced alge­bra.

MITCHELL A. LEASKA S c i e n c e

Mr. Leaska says his pet peeve is “tol­eration”. This helps to define our wonder­ful teacher of biology and earth science, who always encourages the scientific ap­proach. Dwight’s snazziest dresser, he is the author of a new work on tragedy.

“Esse”

MICHAEL R. MUZIO P h y s i c a l E d u c a t i o n ; S c i e n c e

Although officially Mr. Muzio' is the Freshman Qass sponsor, he numbers his student friends in all classes, including PC’s. Unstintingly he gave of his time in a most busy schedule to give extra help to those who were foundering in earth science.

“Sound minds need strong bodies.”

CHARLES W. MYRON S c i e n c e

The “owner” of the fifth floor is one of the top science teachers in the metro­politan are£u There is a flavour to his physics, chemistry, and pre-engineering classes that transcends sciences and em­braces politics of a somewhat conserva­tive stripe. But, as he says, physics and chem are not Social Studies!

Nothing succeeds like success

As secretary of the Senior Class, mem­ber of the Student Council, National Honor Society, tutor, and copy editor of the Scroll, Jeff has surely put his two years at Dwight to worthwhile use. Yet he does find time to indulge his interests in jazz and cars. He has enjoyed the psychology course; in fact, he plans to attend Syracuse Univer­sity and to become a psychiatrist!

STACEY SCUTCHFIELD 46-41 Burling Street

Flushing 55, New York

The great business of life is to know ivhen to do and when to do without

Entering Dwight as a sophomore, Sta­cey has served on the Student Council and as president of his class both sopho­more and junior years. An avid reader, he is considering an English major at St. John’s University. This year he was editor of the senior section of the Scroll.

Caught in the act

STUART IRA SIEGEL 530 West 236 Street

New York, New York

Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday

After two years at DeWitt Clinton High School, Stu came to Dwight. He is an avid Giants football fan and played that sport at his former school. Usually seen in the company of his buddy, Marc Blum, they acted as co-faculty editors of this yearbook. His college choice is Michigan State Uni­versity.

DANIEL B. SILVER 1878 Harrison Avenue New York, New York

A man that all can look up to

Sliv is an avid basketball fan and a fine player. In fact when not in class, he can usually be found in the gym. It is no surprise to anyone that he intends to major in physical education in college, and that his choice of school is N.Y.U.

Now let’s compare combs

Whitestone, New York

A clear conscience is a sure card

Although he says the thing he most dislikes is the rush hour on the subway, Dan may have to put up for it for four more years if his plans to attend N.Y.U. jell. A reliable member of our bowling team, Dan also formed the third corner of a rather well-known Dwight triumvirate this year.

/ am as strong as a bull moose

Artie is certainly one of the finest basketball players Dwight has ever had and has brought national lecognition to himself and the school. His future educational plans include N.Y.U. And the thing he can’t stand is girls who use too much makeup.

ANTHONY JOHN SULLIVAN 1360 York Avenue

I never saw a wild thing

Tony is a quiet but highly respected boy at Dwight. We will never forget his reaction to the sociology course. A member of the National Honor Society, Tony plans to further his education at the University of Indiana.

A diplomat knows what it isn’t safe to laugh at

Jorge, a native of Argentina, came to Dwight from the United Nations Interna­tional School. He intends to continue this cosmopolitan interest in world politics by studying foreign relations in college and hopefully becoming a member of the diplo­matic corps.

Ulm er’s butt in the bathroom

PHILIP W. ULMER 116 Old Army Road Scarsdale, New York

Large-hearted man

How did he ever get the reputation for being quiet and withdrawn? Mr. Asch thinks otherwise. But, with all that, he is still a very likeable person and was a faithful P.G. representative on the Student Council and a glee club accompanist. If all’s well, he will take up engineering at Syracuse.

Look, Ma! Three hands

ALAN VAN NIMWEGEN 750 Squaw Brook Road

North Haledon, New Jersey

He hath a heart as sound as a bell

A top student in all subjects, Van was especially sharp in the maths and sciences where he earned the admiration of his classmates and teachers. He was elected to the National Honor Society. With his col­lege choice not decided at press time, he has chosen engineering as his field.

PAUL WALLAHORA 332 East 66 Street

New York, New York

In sport, he’s royal

Wally is another six-footer-plus who helped to m cike the Dwight basketball team the great team it was. In addition, he was a very apt student, and he was particularly fond of Mr. Myron’s subjects. His plans for next year encompass New York University.

ERIC ALAN WEISS 287 Avenue C

A very popular student at Dwight, he was unanimously elected president of the Senior Class for the first semester. His best-liked subject was biology, and he hopes to become a biochemist. Incidentally, Eric was the first senior this year to get a college acceptance: from Columbia no less!

Juniors

Sparked by a president, Stephen Israel, who was not asleep at the switch, the Junior Class began a petition to do away with the Student Council. However, this radical movement was abandoned when everyone had cooler second thoughts. Other officers in the Junior Class were Richard Globus, vice-president; Stephen Globus, treasurer; and George Mello, secretary. One of this class’s outstand­ing members is Dwight’s speaker-laureate, John McNulty. Sponsor for the juniors this year was Mr. Gregory Curry.

Sophomores

No longer at the bottom of the ladder of the high school years, this year’s Sophomore Class conducted their meetings, under the beneficent guidance of Mr. James Scully, in an orderly manner that would do credit to their older contemporaries. Officers elected were Marcellino Evans, president; Robert Sullivan, vice-president; and William Keveney, secretary. President Evans also had the distinction of being the tallest boy in Dwight and a basketball mainstay.

Freshmen

Introducing the Dwight graduating class of 1967 — better known as the Freshman Class of 1964! This fine group of boys, as spirited as Freshman Classes always seem to be, is sponsored by Mr. Michael Muzio. The class president is Ted Brown; vice-president is Weber Lauh; and the secretary is Lawrence DiCaro. One of the best-known and best-liked boys in this class is the accomplished pianist, Weber Lauh, who was Mrs. Posts’s good right hand in the Glee Club and thrilled us all at assemblies.

BASKETBALL TEAM

Overshadowing all sports at Dwight School is basketball. In the years since Mr. Michael Muzio has been its mentor, our hoopsters have racked up some impressive wins and glorious seasons, but none that surpasses this year’s showing. Starting for Dwight this year were high scorer Artie Stephenson, 6’ 6”, Paul Wallahora, 6’ 7” , Marcellino Evans, 6’ 8”, Harold Hogstrom, 5’ 10”, and Mike Hig- o ins, 6’ 1”. Coach Muzio has labeled this his finest team and theyc' “were rated by sportswriters as the top private school team. In a sea­son of over 20 games, they had only one loss on their record, and as has come to be expected of Dwight they copped the A.A.P.S. title and tournament. The highest offense of any team in the city and a tight defense made Dwight number one.

TRACK TEAM

It is unfortunate that the yearbook deadline is always in advance of final selection of members for the spring sports, but judging from past performances and with a number of veterans (including Tony Sullivan, the Globus brothers, Alex Rosato, and Bob March) return­ing we can, by hindsight, anticipate a good season for our track- sters. These dedicated runners practiced daily to perform at their top peak.

INTRAMURALS

Man) surprises including the spunk and fine team play of the freshmen punctuated a season of inter- class basketball games which this year, under the sponsorship of the Student Council, did much to inject spirit into Dwight. The games were held during the activity period (with P.G.’s even being excused from Pre-En gineering to take part) in round-robin style, winner determined by each class’s won-lost ratio. Varsity bas­ketball players were banned except in the case of the freshman class, which, of course, had the fewest members to draw from.

Each game was played to a full house of rooters. Several of these grandstand referees showed their disap­proval of some of the calls Coach Muzio made, but it was all in the spirit of fun. There was excitement all the wav down to the stretch, with the seniors finally emerging the victors. An all-star team was picked by the players ana Mr. Muzio. It Included:

Right Forward Andy Stephenson Freshman

Left Forward Eddie Haskell Senior

Center Daniel Silver Senior

Right Guard Roger Parris Senior

Left Guard ken Gath\ Freshman

BOWLING TEAM |

Thanks to tlie fine coaching of our headmaster. Mr. Miller, the Dwight Bowling Team rolled to their finest season. Led by Captain Bruce Sankin and the collective efforts of his mates, the results the\ obtained exceeded expectations. Though all members played equally well, special mention goes to Joe Massar. who bowled the high game of 233.

BASEBALL TEAM

As do most high school yearbooks, the Scroll must submit all copy for its final deadline before the spring sports really get under way. This makes the task of reportage impossible and in its place we can either dwell on last year’s successes or dream about those to come this year. Instead we will make the prediction that under the tutelage of their fine coach, Mr. Muzio, our nine will do Dwight proud. Veterans on this year’s squad include Jeff Martin, Bruce Plenge, Stu Siegel, Art Stephenson, and Paul Wallahora.

YEARBOOK

Under the direction of our tireless adviser, Mr. Asch, we of the yearbook staff have attempted to put together what we hope will be adjudged an annual worthy to take its place alongside our predecessors. Especially worthy of praise for the dili­gence with which they performed their duties are Pat Deegan, Jeff EHlson, and Stacey Scutchfield. Not quite meeting our advertising quota, the editors, photographers, and the harrassed adviser put their wits on edge attempting to create some last-minute fil­lers.

NEWSPAPER

When the Scroll was sent to press, we had had two issues of the Dwightonian. Mr. Clive Miller, the hard-working adviser for the newspaper staff, felt that lack of in­terest, organization, and initiative on the part of the would-be journalists (of whom, we might add, there were almost too many to be wieldy) accounted for the infre­quency of publication. It should be noted, however, that in the second issue of the paper an editorial on cheating by Lawrence Stern aroused sufficient administration and faculty interest to request Editor Stern to meet with the Honor Committee and the Faculty Disciplinary Committee to help work out a plan to discourage this bla­tant form of dishonesty.

LIBRARY COMMITTEE

Need a book? Need information for a report? Both can always be found in the Dwight library. Mr. Monte and his staff of student librarians Avere always there to lend a hand. Many thousand, reference works, pamphlets, and magazines are in constant circulation. Before and after school the staff is always available, helping someone out or making sure that everything is in order.

GLEE CLUB

Once gain this year Mrs. Post began with a group of novices and trained them into a really professional sounding glee club. They put on an excellent program at the traditional Christmas Assembly and they are scheduled to sing at Commence­ment. The addition of Weber Lauh, a first-rate piano virtuoso, gave the group an excellent accompanist and provided the entire school with some impressive solo play­ing at various assemblies. Though members of the glee club work very hard, we are sure, it is just possible that they get as much fun out of their singing as we do listen­ing to them.

DRAMA CLUB

After an absence of a few years for lack of a sponsor, the Drama Qub was reinstated this year under the accomplished leadership of Mr. Flaxman. At press time we are unable to report as to the choice of play which they will put on in the spring; several titles were under consideration, but some had to be eliminated because of the physical limitations of our stage and others because female roles figur­ed importantly in the cast and we were unable to convince a number of girls’ schools they should present a cooperative venture with us. The group did, however, put on a skit at the Christmas Assembly. Listened to several dramatic recordings, and in a body attended a well-received performance of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum on Broadway.

DEBATING CLUB

Hear ye, hear ye! The meeting will now come to order. Under the astute leader­ship of Mr. Nis Petersen, Dwight’s debaters (Yves Hentic, Stephen Piazza, John Mc­Nulty, and Peter lanello) had a fine won-lost record against all opponents. Rhodes. Columbia Grammar, and Eron were easy victories, and our boy orators went down fighting in the New York University high school tournament. One of the team. John McNulty, gathered additional laurels for himself and honor for Dwight by coming in second in the Brotherhood Oratorical Contest sponsored by the B’nail Brith.

TUTORS

Because of the success of last year’s tutorial prograra. Mr. Miller was most enthu­siastic about establishing the system on a permanent basis under the leadership of the National Honor Society and consisting of all Headmaster’s List students.

Most of these honor students assisted the boys at great sacrifice of their own time. Awards were presented to the tutors of the boys whose grades improved the most during the period they received tutorial instruction.

iNATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY

After several of last year’s charter members graduated, new students had to be selected to fill these vacancies. The faculty votes students into this elite group on the basis of superior qualities of leadership, strong character, extra-curricular participa­tion, and a minimum average of 85.

Led by President Thomas Clifford, the council organized many beneficial activi­ties including the tutorial system. Being elected to this outstanding group is the high­est honor that can be given a Dwight junior or senior.
