F o r your unselfish assistance and guidance, we, the
class of
1971, would like to dedicate this year's
'4
11 . . . Mr, :
/is.
"Through the Looking Glass"
. . . as appreciated by the Bricks and Ivy staff
of 1971 (with sincerest apologies to Lewis
Carroll).
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting in her Math class, so when the rabbit went by room 126, to her
teacher's amazement, she got up and ran after it. "Wait," cried her teacher, "you can't leave this room without a
pass!" But Alice, who had not heard her, started o f f on a merry chase of the long-eared hare (who had, at this
point, stopped to check the time on his watch, for the school clocks did not happen to work at the moment).
Alice heard him mutter, "Oh dear, how late it's getting!" NOw if you were Alice, and I assure you that you are
not, but if you were, what would you do if you heard a rabbit say that, or for that matter anything? You'd take a
good, long vacation like any normal person, right? Wrong! You'd take o f f after that bunny so fast that your track
shoes would smoke! After all, there haven't been many talking rabbits on T.V. lately have there? So o f f ran Alice
through the halls of Milne.
Suddenly, Alice found herself in a dark, dingy, dirty room facing a large, blue caterpiller that was lounging on
the sofa observing the world. The caterpiller and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence.
He addressed her in a sleepy voice, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Alice replied shyly, "At present I hardly know-I knew who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I
must have changed several times since then."
"What do you mean by that?" said the caterpiller sternly. If you don't know who you are, don't come to me
with your problems. Ask the Hatter. You'll find him over there, sitting at the end of the hall."

for that (we) still remember you
and love you.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Ouellette:
I have the honor to inform y o u that your son has been
awarded posthumously the Bronze Star Medal for heroism and the Purple Heart.
Prior to death, Lewis had been awarded the National
Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, Vietnam
Campaign Medal, and the Sharpshooter Badge with rifle

"Thank you," returned Sweet Little Alice. She set
out, and after having proceeded
quite cautiously, she
discovered herself to be at the end of a very long hall.
However, no one was there. (This was not unusual,
for it was lunch time.) She was wondering to herself
whether the Caterpillar's directions were right, when
she was startled to hear a sound come from
behind
her.
"Must be a lost methods student," she
thought.
She was surprised to see a Cheshire Cat grinning at
her.
"It looked good natured," she thought. Still it had
very long claws and a great many teeth, so she felt it
ought to be treated with some
respect."
"Would you tell me please, which way I ought to
go from
here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to
go and whom you want to see," said the Cat.
"The Caterpillar said that I should see the Hatter,"
said Alice.
"In that case, you would probably want to go to
the tea party. He might be there, if I recall
correctly,
he is usually there at this time of day."

"Dear me, "said Alice. "I'm here in the courtyard and I don't see any

Alice's left was a long, wooden table at which sat the Hatter and his
friends. (The Hatter and his friends were having one of their regular
get-togethers
but, of course, Alice couldn't have known that.)
"This gathering reminds me of the faculty meetings that were held at
my school. Only there they drank coffee. But of course this isn't school.

"Excuse me, my sweet child. Would you like a cup of tea?"
interrupted the apparent host of the party, the Hatter.
"Yes, if you please," replied Alice. She took the tea and sat

"Yes, indeed. I am the Hatter," he answered. "I am the only
Hatter here. And what do you want? Not that it really matters

"I'm awfully tired of this running
around," complained Alice. "If you can't
help me, who can?"
"Her Majesty the Queen. Who else?"
replied the Hatter.
Alice set out to find the Queen. She
went through a creaky door and down
some stairs. At the end of the stairs was
another door, which upon opening revealed the Queen's playing field.
People
were wandering all over the grounds.
Some were practicing soccer on the field.
Others were making last minute arrangements for the Queen's and her courtier's
arrival.

There was great enthusiasm shown for volleyball this year, and as in each

was greater than any other sport. The program

"Could you tell me where the Queen is?" Alice asked.

and sometimes managed to score
a few runs at the same time. The
team, which played six games,
came up with a final average of
two better than Charlie Brown,
and almost went batty doing it.
Besides becoming proficient in

C-D-E title for 5 years. This is a fantastic record, and lets hope
that the 1971 team will add to the legacy.

The first event was the half mile run. The runners assembled on the

"Let the race commence!"
shrieked the Queen. A whistle blew and
o f f they ran. Several runners managed to break loose from the rest of
the group. One by one, they began to tire out until one runner was left
in front. When he crossed the finish line, the Queen rewarded him with
a gold trophy. Races were held all afternoon.

team, coached

Doug Phillips, had an erratic season,
although
finishing with a good 6-6 CHVL record, and an
8-10 overall tally. The Red Raiders had a strong
offense all season long, spurting over the century
mark three times. The Milnites were only five
points down to league powerhouse Catskill at the
half at home. A good, solid-shooting, Milne offense was present at nearly all the games, but the
defense was sometimes lacking. The Varsity rode
the scoring of Eric Schlamowitz, George Khachadurian, and Lou Iselin, and the rebounding of
Abe Dorsman into the first round of the sectionals with a hopeful eye.

The J V Basketball team, under the auspices of
Fred Ackerman, did surprisingly well considering
the sickness and injury that plagued it. Early in the
season, starter Steve Sumner was put out of commission due to a back problem. Two other firststringers, Dave Edwards and Roger Delong, missed
middle and late season games because of severe
illnesses.
The consistent late season play of Larry Abrams
and Pete Bulger helped the team to a fair finish.
The J Vers ended their 7-11 season with an avenging victory over the Academy Junior Varsity squad.

The baseball team, led by seniors Jon Drew and Abe Dorsman,
slugged their way to a respectable
league finish, and a good
overall record. The team overcame such early season
technical
difficulties as no coach and a small turnout at tryouts to finish
strongly.
The next day, the queen, her court and Alice went
back to the field to watch the last event, the baseball
game. The game started, but no-one seemed to be
paying any attention to the game, except for Alice.
"Strange," thought Alice, "There should be more
people paying attention to the game. Maybe they're
tired from last night's celebration. Anyway, they all
play at once, if you can call it playing. They even trip
each other with their baseball bats. There appears to
be no object of the game unless the object of the
game is to confuse the spectators and the opposing
team." "What a horrible game this is,"
remarked
Alice outloud.

Student Government Coming Through
This year, Student Council has compiled a long list of
important accomplishments.
An efficient committee,
comprised of students and faculty, vastly improved relations at
Milne. A system of "student privileges" was instituted and
council handled the fund-raising activity schedule for the
entire year. No longer is student council a silent body.

Alice did not know what to do. She
thought first that she could put on an act
and pretend that she was somebody else. But
she realized that that plan would not work.
Too many people had overheard her nasty
remark.

Several People from the newspaper staff, the Chartruse and Wine, rushed over to Alice and started to ask her
all sorts of questions. One of the reporters rushed back to the Queen to inform her of Alice's insult. The Queen
rushed over to Alice. "What?" fumed the Queen. "How dare you insult my games. Somebody seize her; o f f ivith
her head!"

Perhaps she could sing to the Queen to calm her down. She remembered

charms to calm the savage beast." But, nothing would calm down the Queen right now.

One of her chief advisors, the

spoke
to
the
Queen, urging her to change her
mind.
"Madam, this execution will
not do."
"Why not?" the Queen retorted.
"One cannot go around executing
everyone!"
"What is the answer
then?"
"Why not pardon her? Start a
fad. Besides, a recent poll has
shown you to be losing your
popularity with the people. This
could improve
relations."
"Of course! That's the answer. Now why didn't I think of
that?" The Queen shouted
to
the soldiers to release Alice.

Although
FHA
had a
diminutive membership
this
year, several members participated in many important and
interesting activities.
Among
them were service
projects,
the fall rally, and the state
meeting. And for the first
time since running water was
introduced in Milne, an invitation to join was extended
to the male population.
Next
year, an anticipated
increase
in size would broaden
the
scope of activities.

A group of photographers rushed over to snap pictures of Alice. No one had ever been pardoned before by the
Queen. She was surrounded by radio men, T.V. men, cards and many others, all asking questions and
congratulating her.

In tenth grade, I wouldn't have shown up
for any remedials. I was too busy with clubs
in school or with some group in the community. I hardly had any time to myself.
But I had fun working in the groups. It also
gave me a good excuse for not doing my
homework. I probably could have made up
other excuses for not doing my
homework,
but saying that my many activities took so
much of my time, provided me with a convenient excuse. Besides, it impressed
the
student teachers.

But in eleventh grade, I turned over a new
leaf. I didn't show up for any remedials because I never got any. I guess I was lucky. Why
don't I tell Miss O'Hare the truth? I can tell her
all about my dream.

Milne has meant something different to
all of us. To me it's been good friends, good
times, hard work, fun and memories I'll
never forget. Now that it is almost over, I'm
excited but scared when I think of what's
ahead. I'm happy but sad to think it's really
over, and I'm not quite sure if I'm ready for
the world or if the world's ready for me!
