Wdjcs Alias Billy the Kid has been a leader of the class since he entered in 1943. He has an unquenchable fight and a determination to stand up for what he believes. Through his eight yearsg he has been a perpetual part of football and was elected a Tri-Captain in this, his third lettering year of Varsity football. He has also distin- guished himself with his guns and with tales of the old West, which eventually and inevitably turn into gun battles. He has successfully blued his old Winchester 73 fnotwithstanding the fact that his fingers now also have a tint of bluel. He is often criticized for his weird but not unexplainable tactics with his female fans. When a subject is too serious, we always depend on Halton to brighten matters with his quick wit. On the playing field, in class, or off the campus, he is an invaluable friend.

He has ever since been one of the leaders of his class and has been the class delegate to the Student Council. His friendliness radiates to everyone and makes him popular with all the girls. He is always trustworthy, and when John says that he will do something he can always be depended upon to do it. Perhaps his greatest attribute is his amazing skill as a dancer. Often he will be seen dancing alone-with a girl, that is-surrounded by a crowd of admiring spectators. John's frankness and cheerfulness make him one of the most outstanding boys ever produced at St. lVlark's.
