CHAPTER XXIV THE LURE OF THE GAME Fresh faces in the Gym appear. New knives cut other names; Fresh sinners carry on, I fear, Our very same old games. Athletics in Phillips Academy mean far more than the yearly struggles with Exeter. The good old doctrine of "sport for sport's sake" has always been part of the academic gospel, and boys are led to stretch their muscles for sheer delight in physical exercise. It has been the ambition of the school to arouse in the undergraduates a love for games, not so much for the victory which may be won--although it would be hypocrisy to pretend that success is undesirable--as for the pleasure of matching skill against skill, brawn against brawn. To this end there should be games of every sort, for the strong, for the agile, for the swift--even for the feeble and the clumsy. Schools, within the last half-century, have learned that the care of the body is an essential part of education. After the "stone shell of a building " on Chapel Avenue was given to Professor Stowe as a home, the "theologues" and the "cads" had a gymnasium in common in a large wooden structure in the rear of the Seminary, which was scantily equipped with apparatus. Samuel W. Abbot in 1853 received a ticket entitling him to the privileges of the "Phillips Gymnasium." In presenting this card to the school many years later, Dr. Abbot wrote: --To the daily use of this Gymnasium in 1853-54 I have been wont to attribute improved health while at Andover and years afterward in a constitution not naturally robust. On July 24, 1865, the Trustees, after the burning of the Stone Academy, resolved that, when the new Main Building was finished, the old "Brick Academy" should be fitted out as a gymnasium. Within a year they appropriated $1000 for...

Book excerpt: Tall and handsome, vigorous and hot-tempered, fearless to a fault, Frederick W. Lander (1821–1862) became one of the most name-recognized Americans in the years 1854 to 1862. A top-notch railroad and wagon-road engineer in the western territories, a popular lyceum speaker, a published fic-tion writer and poet, an adept negotiator with Native Americans, and an agent for the Lincoln administration and the Union army, the Massachusetts native attracted newspaper coverage from coast to coast for his renown and versatility. His name evoked emotion and passion among his friends and associates, including artists, poets, explorers, engineers, soldiers, and politicians, but at his untimely death early in the Civil War, he quickly and tragically descended into anonymity. With an energy that befits his subject, Gary L. Ecelbarger brings to life this intriguing, romantic personality of the nineteenth century, tempting the imagination to consider what Lander might have accomplished had he lived longer. Using more than five hundred unpublished letters and documents written by Lander and his colleagues, superiors, and subordinates, Ecelbarger delves into all of the major aspects of Lander’s life but focuses upon its final chapter in the Civil War. Promoted directly from unpaid aide-de-camp to brigadier general, Lander was quickly dubbed “the great natural American soldier” by Lieutenant General Winfield Scott for his brilliant promise as a military leader. The author offers a richly detailed narrative of Lander’s courageous participation in three campaigns during the first year of the conflict: Rich Mountain, May–July, 1861; Ball’s Bluff, September–October, 1861; and the previously undocumented campaign against Stonewall Jackson, January–March, 1862. Ecelbarger studies Lander’s flaws, attributes, and achievements to provide a judicious, comprehensive analysis of his actions and character. In Frederick W. Lander, he produces the spellbinding story of a once-forgotten hero who now appears life size.
