He set out to succeed in two fields while at the Academy; academics and sports. Winning stars and pla - ing lacrosse satisfied both his desires. He was often kidded about only weighing so much soaking wet, but he always took a joke with a grin. Jim ' s ambition and cheerful atti- tude are sure to make his Army career a satisfying one.

RICHARD FRANCIS REIDY, JR. ' ■Dick ' ' L-1 State College, Pa. Senatorial Dick would have been an excellent math student if he could have found the time. However, his self imposed five novel per week minimum quota prevented this. The li- brary ' s best customer could invariably be seen reviewing the ridiculous and the sublime from his vantage point— the sack. His easy going, happy-go-lucky attitude toward life in general will make Dick a success wherever he goes.

Vernon, Ohio t ongressional With three summers of naval training behind him, Dick was well prepared to enter the Military Academy. As much at 1 le in Copenhagen as in Connecticut, Dick might be characterized as a diplomatic cosmopolitan with a real zest for li ing. A rare combination of crackshot marksman and political whiz, the Fox makes a friend of everyone he meets and is sure to e.xcel in whatever he does.
