And cannot pleasures, while they last,
Be actual unless, when past,
They leave us shuddering and aghast,
With anguish smarting?
And cannot friends be firm and fast,
And yet bear parting?
Farewell, dear friend, and whenever meet,
In desert waste or crowded street,
Perhaps before this week shall fleet,
Perhaps tomorrow,
I trust to find your heart the seat
Of wasting sorrow.
Lewis Carroll
For your unselfish assistance and guidance, we, the
class of 1971, would like to dedicate this year’s
Bricks and Ivy to'you.. . . Mr. Richard Lewis.
“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 off 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 off 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 off 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.”
I do not know
if you smiled when you were dying
or cursed your friends
for the little attention we paid you of late
or how you spent your last full hour alive.
1 do know that I was saddened when I heard the news.
Mostly
because you gave yourself to (us) once
without invention or restraint,
for that (we) still remember you
and love you.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Ouellette:
I have the honor to inform you that your son has been
awarded posthumously the Bronze Star Medal for her-
oism 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
and automatic rifle bars . . .

“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.”
“Where’s the fire?”
Miss Ruth Poffley

“Which way do I go to this tea party?”
“tn that direction.” the Cat said, waving its left paw ‘round, “Follow
the rabbit.”
“What rabbit?” Alice inquired.
“Are you blind? That rabbit! The one that just went out into the
courtyard.”
“Oh,” said Alice, for she had already forgotten about the white
rabbit. Off she went into the courtyard in search of the mysterious
hare.

“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

“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
down in an empty chair. “Are you the Hatter?”
“Yes, indeed, I am the Hatter,” he answered. “I am the only
Hatter here. And what do you want? Not that it really matters

Soccer
Bruised shins, ripped shin
guards, aching backs and broken
rubber bands were some of the
results of the fine efforts put forth
by this year’s soccer team. The girls
socked back at their opponents
with more strength, skill and effort
than ever before. The over-all sea-

one tie, and two losses.

“Her Majesty the Queen. Who else?”

Volleyball

intramurals, playdays, and inter-scholastic games. The girls showed determina-

“Could you tell me where the Queen is?” Alice asked.
But before she could get an answer, people cried out, “The

the sound of footsteps and Alice looked around, eager to

“Let the race commence!” shrieked the Queen. A whistle blew and

The Varsity basketball team, coached by
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 of-
fense was present at nearly all the games, but the
defense was sometimes lacking. The Varsity rode
the scoring of Eric Schlamowitz, George Khacha-
durian, and Lou Iselin, and the rebounding of
Abe Dorsman into the first round of the sec-
tionals with a hopeful eye.

The JV Basketball team, under the auspices of

the sickness and injury that plagued it. Early in the
season, starter Steve Sumner was put out of com-
mission due to a back problem. Two other first-
stringers, 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 court retired to a splendid dinner before
getting ready for the basketball game to be held
that night. The queen’s own team was to play
against a formidable team from one of the neigh-
boring kingdoms. At the starting time, the basket-
ball players and their opponents shook hands and
got into their positions. The buzzer blew to start
the beginning of the first quarter. Both teams
played very well and at the end of the first quar-
ter, the queen’s team was winning. During the next
three quarters, the queen’s team increased their
lead and went on to win the game. After a victory
celebration, the queen’s team and the court retired
for the evening.

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.

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

She was in such a state. The Queen had already ordered Alice’s execution.
She shouted for her soldiers to cart Alice off to jail. The Queen demanded her
royal coach.

One of her chief advisors, the
white rabbit, spoke to the
Queen, urging her to change her
mind,
“Madam, this execution will
not do,”
“Why not?” the Queen re-
torted.
“One cannot go around ex-
ecuting 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 an-
swer. 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 partic-
ipated 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 invi-
tation 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.

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!
