Boating, Qualified Boat Handler, Binnacle Staff I When NDick came to A.F.A. in 54-9. he immediately broke into society with his ever-ready smile and happy-go-lucky Way. He has succeeded in all of his undertakings here at Farragut and has attained the rank of Ensign. He K N has also succeeded in his senior year to keep two jumps 1' short ones at that! O x ahead of the draft. He is a very loyal rebel and starts every day with a fond glance at the Confederate flag. His gay laughter and much appreciated good humor will be missed in the years to come. So long, Dick, and the best of luck to you.
