FRANK WALLACE GILLESPIE, Jr. G-1 Fwig Minneapolis. Minnesota Well liked by his friends, but in constant conflict with the T.D., Frank earned the title of area bird. He did well with academics when he put his mind to it, but he is best remembered for his artistic talents and quick wit. We feel certain that he will continue his family ' s tradition of fine officers in his future career.

His winning way and easy manner are sure to help him over any hurdle. Sergeant I: Baseball 4.3.2.1. Numerals 4.

JOHN WILLIAM GOLDTRAP Goldie L-2 Casper, Wyoming Coming to us from God ' s Country, John took a while to get accUmated to cadet life — in fact he ' s still working at it. Never one to sweat things too much, he always found time to write letters or contemplate life in the security of his brown boy. Here is a man whose spirit, determination, and dependability will assure him success. We are proud to count Goldie among our real friends.

EUGENE KENNETH GOODELL CoocIy B-1 Portland, Maine They said it couldn ' t be done; they said no one could talk at a rate of three hundred words per minute. But for four years now Goody has proved them wrong. When he is not talking, playing his trombone, or representing one of a thousand activities, he smokes. We will never forget Goody ' s quick humor, unbounded energy, and devotion to Maine. Sergeant 1; Cheerleader 1: Debate Council and Forum 4.3.2.1; Pointer 2,1; Dance Orchestra 3,2,1, Custodian I. ? 66
