1A.M,A.l DI PLOMAS ALBERT L. MCQUILL-EN Mac took leave of us at Christmas to assume new duties with the Air Corps. He leaves behind him an enviable record of unbounded friendliness with the corps in general. Take care of your- self, Mac, and be sure when you're out there with your new buddies to remember your old buddies at A.M.A. JAMES M. MCCANLESS Jimmie we send 'away with a sad goodby, but with the knowledge that he will make one of our best Army pilots. We only hope that you will be a little harder on the enemy than your per- sonality was on us. Best of luck, Jim, and happy landings to a swell fellow. J. HOWARD MCGLOON Mac arrived at Augusta three years ago to take his place as one of the great fencers of Augusta's history. This year he became captain of the team, taking all honor and losing none. Good luck, Mac, may success follow 'in your footsteps wherever you may go from Augusta. As for the corps, all we can say is that we are the loser upon your graduation. WILLIAM H. MCOWEN Bill came to us five years ago and in that time has proven himself a worthy friend of all cadets. He has been on the swimming' team for Hve years and this year became its captain. To Mac, a swell guy and a great swimmer, we say good luck in everything you do. Mac plans to pursue the profession of medicine in his future days and in this we know he'll make a big success. as r n 1 72 gil I i. ng. rd il f if N! I' 'W .

To you, Tim, we wish all the best -of luck while you attend the University of North Carolina and then enter the Army Air Corps. GENE E.

To you, Scoop, our best wishes, and may your ambition to become an editor be fulhlled. ROBERT W. KNOX, JR. Bob has turned out to be one of the best new cadets at Augusta. His ambitions to study medi- cine at Cornell are held high by all who know him. Lots of luck, ole man, we know you will be one of the best. PETER LEAR Pete entered upon his career at A.M.A. last year, and has since become as much a part of Augusta as the sentry box. His patriotic enroll- ment in the Army Air Corps will always be remembered at Augusta. The best of luck, Pete, we know that you will make a wonderful officer.

The RECALL DIPLOMAS ROBERT S. PAGE, JR. He's quiet until you know him. That f1tS our Bob to a HT. Since coming to A.M.A. three years ago he has proven himself without a doubt that he will accomplish all that's set before him. Bob was a member of the 4th Stoop Tower Gangf' but he was the .least trifler of all. He was an ardent fan of the books and knowledge fast came to him through his studies. ANGELO PAPPAS Gush is well noted for being down to ranks by first blast and we know that he seldom ever missed. Our best wishes go with Gus as he enters the Army Air Corps and we know he will make a wonderful officer. Gus was a famous lad for the opposite sex and he was always full of fun. Whenever around he brightened things up, and his 'knowledge in literature, plus his quick wit won him many friends. CHARLES K. POLISHER Charley will not only be remembered by his classmates as a fine fellow, but as an outstanding boxer. He will be remembered by many of his opponents who were on the receiving end of his fistfulls of leather. We know him to be am- bitious, an asset to any young man. His success will not be hindered and he has our best wishes. GERALD M. REGER H-Ierry is a greatly admired cadet as well as being a casanova and a pretty boy. We can ex- pect only the best of Jerry Reger. Good Luck, l'handsome, don't break too many hearts!
