L08 RECALL =a =a _ THIS WAS THE SCHOOL you selected. These are the friends you made, the life you lived in ‘58-’59, the mem- ories you will recall forever. Only in a land of the free can such a year be recorded . Recall G. Michael Wiese, Editor AUGUSTA MILITARY ACADEMY FORT DEFIANCE, VIRGINIA 1959 a Volume 59 Foreword Reveille! Reveille! A shrill note of awareness! Skies, once uncluttered except with clouds, blossomed suddenly with Sput- niks, Vanguards, Atlas missiles, Luniks, and even Congressional investigations in ‘58-’59. Reveille! Wake UP! And that’s what’s happened to all of us this year. We've learned what it means to have a choice of schools, courses, friends, athletics and faith. No longer can there be any “’beatniks’’ in education. Reveille! It’s time to scratch beneath the surface —to learn more—to keep our country ahead. And that’s what’s been go- ing on at AMA-—a reawakening. This is how it’s been at Augusta Contents The Academy The Athletics Page 10 Page 126 The Activities Page 38 The Organizations Page 158 The Classes Page 64 The Corps The Advertisements Page 106 Page 202 COL. CHAS. S. ROLLER, JR. Virginia Military Institute WITH ANTICIPATION, the corps waits for the big news—who’s won first at Sunday Parade. Col. Roller Prepares to address ‘‘his boys’’. “Take it to the ‘Big Boy’ or the ‘Boss’ ’’! And that’s what thousands of boys have done for the past fifty-eight years at Augusta. They’ve taken their problems, their sorrows, joys and achievements to their beloved prin- cipal, Col. Chas. S. Roller, Jr., and to Mrs. Roller. This is a big year for Col. and Mrs. Roller. On September 8 they will celebrate fifty years of married life and the “‘Big Boy” will cele- brate his 80th birthday anniversary. During ‘58-'59, every cadet and faculty officer learned just what Col. Roller meant to them when he became ill in October. No longer were there the friendly talks before lunch— the announcements at parade—the excite- ment of the banquets—but through it all, Mrs. Roller carried on and made everyone to the “BIG BOY”... realize that it was a team which had built Augusta to the high place which it holds now. Strict, but fair, strong, but kind, Col. Roller has been a model for “his’’ boys in the class- room, on the athletic field, and in the military department. The Colonel’s classes have al- ways been strict, with the old-fashioned and needed drill system used to instill knowledge in his students. After graduation from V. M. I., Col. Roller returned to his school, which had long been associated with the Roller name. From that September in 1901 right up to the present, “Big Boy’’ has maintained close contact with his students—in the classroom with a min- imum of three classes a day—on the athletic field with impromptu visits to keep the boys on the ball—and on the drill field to issue a. ...and to the “BOSS” “KEEP YOUR GOAL HIGH”... Mrs. Chas. S. Roller, Jr., Mary Baldwin College alumna, gives timely advice to the First Captain, Pete Kelley. “AND YOU’D BETTER catch those passes!’’ Zeke Zehmer, end on the varsity, finds out that Mrs. Roller is really a football enthusiast. Never does she miss a game! commands to every platoon. Following his illness, Colonel found out the love his boys held for him when he entered the Mess Hall for the first time in two months. A roar of genuine delight issued from every cadet and each member of his loyal faculty. Devoting the majority of his time to AMA, Col. Roller has given freely of his spare time to the Augusta Old Stone Presbyterian Church, where he has been a deacon and elder for 28 years; to the Kiwanis International, to the Sons of Confederate Veterans, to the Ruritan Club and to many educational and scientific organ- izations. But to AMA, Col. and Mrs. Roller have given their love, their time, their lives. To a couple who number great men and women as their friends, their proudest moment still comes when one of their boys turns to them for help and says, ‘‘You are MY friend.” For all that Col. and Mrs. Chas. S. Roller, Jr. have been.to us and to the thousands of AMA alumni before us, we wish a happy 50 and 80 and with love dedicate to them the 1959 RECALL. BELLS RING... . stomachs growl .. . and the sixth period is over! Lunch time can’t be far away when the boys rush to formation from the Academic Building, scene of academic struggles on weekdays, movies on Saturday nights, and the YMCA on Sundays. SUMMERTIME for weeks, the weather made the main barracks a de- serted spot, as the boys played Spring sports in January . . . then, bang! Temperatures plunged from 75 to 5 in one day and the snows came once more. HOME? .. . yes, to every boy who enters and enters into the spirit of Augusta, the main barracks is a real home. The uniform room, book room, movie library, offices, laundry room, armory and post office give it the dis- tinction of being the center of cadet life. Cadet life is a world in itself... EAGER, ENTHUSIASTIC, ENERGETIC . . . to the beat of drums, the corps marches past the ‘“Ole House’ to assembly in the ‘Big Room’’, for morning prayer and announcements, signaling the start of classes. EVACUATION FROM DEANE’S CASTLE .. . just as recess begins, Timberlake, Barber, McVey, J. H. Morris and Van Evera take a break from classes, showing no strain—pno strain. Ht ui A ian se Ul — te nal Built in 1926, Memorial Gymnasium is one of the largest prep school gyms in the country. Scene of basketball games, wrestling meets, rifle matches, and swimming meets, it is also used for classrooms by the Military De- partment, for dances ‘from the Opening Informal to the Final Ball, for plays, and for the big day —graduation! ... Freedom to learn, and to play... When big barracks was built in 1914, Col. Roller and his brother, Col. Thomas J. Roller, saw their dreams fulfilled. From a school of ten day students after the Civil War, AMA had mushroomed from the ‘‘Ole House”’ to a modern community. Then came the $500,000 gymnasium in 1926, a new memorial archway and drive in 1940, and with his eye on the science of the future, Col. Roller had a new science hall built in 1947, as a me- morial to his brother. New equipment and yearly expansion have been keywords to Col. Roller. Biology was added to the curriculum in 1947, and in 1953, geology was started, giving AMA the distinction of being one of the few schools in the United States to have such a course on the prep school level. Ever looking ahead, Col. Roller wants to add more science equipment, to build a new mess hall, and to enlarge all facil- ities at Fort Defiance. At Augusta, there is, indeed, incentive to learn, freedom to play. The Academy Progress—’59 .. . new members of the fac- ulty . . . added strength to continue the pro- gram of a good, sound academic background for each cadet at Augusta. Men and women to guide the individual . . . to develop freedom of thought . . . to create incentive in each cadet for the huge task ahead . . . to open new worlds of knowledge. Courses tightened and strengthened to sup- plement the work of the instructor . . . prob- lems in math and sciences once seen only in college texts . . . place mats at lunch to in- terest all in astronomy and the space age. Study time stressed . . . more inspectors to give help and to prevent backsliding . . . longer study hours at exam time. This is the picture of a private school and the faculty which per- sonify progress —’59. BRAIN TRUST .. . the Big Three pose briefly during Government Inspection time. Col.

McCue get together to draw up a list to be presented to the Board and then to Col. Roller. Chairman of the Board is Col. Deane, with Col. J. C. McCue as vice chairman. New members in ‘59 were Major Koogler and Major Wales. PERMITS FOR SENIORS... . closely scrutinizing those eligible for permits are Major Wales, Major Kramer, Major Lucus (seated) and Major Koogler and Major Savedge. Additionally, all Honor Committee and Student Body Officer actions must be reviewed by the Board. CHECKING grades, records, eligibility . that’s the endless task of mem- bers of the Academic Board. Major Hoover and Col. Gardner figure aver- ages for the month, as Col. Deane and Col. McCrum compile the list of sen- iors. This list will be later studied by every member of the Board and by Col. Roller. 21 New texts, new problems elevate AMA’s Math courses... INCREDIBLE . . . but it’s true . . . Col. Roller won’t allow himself to stay home and rest! Oh, no! He has to see his college algebra class and run over the rules and methods of solving trinomials. Snell is as surprised at Col. Roller’s constant interest as he is in how to do the work. SHOWING OFF THE NEW TEXT? .. . Col. Mc- Crum gives speed problems to his cadets in al- gebra Il. Some of the boys don’t like the nu- merous new word problems, but they'll be happy about their background when they move on to college. FrnONOD BOARD WORK AND DRILL... Major Kramer doesn’t allow anyone a chance to fall behind. Every day, there’s either work at the board or seat drill. Catlette has his work corrected and Hunter tries to finish on time. ...as every cadet shows progress on achievement tests. DON’T TAKE A HOLIDAY FROM LEARNING... . Paul Brown, Bill Mayne and Bob Smoyer find that Major Hoover’s course during the summer at the University of Virginia gave him all sorts of new ideas. It’s ‘Plane’’ that he’s getting the point over to the class. Boys taking N.R.O.T.C. exams, merit scholarships, service academy exams and college boards have found that they MUST know math. With the improvement in textbook selection, the students have found that there is a degree of diffi- culty not experienced be- fore, but this will just help to prepare them better for college. Added to the faculty in late January was Lt. Frank Thorne, B.S. from the University of Mary- land and M.S. from N. C. State, Lt. Thorne majored in mathematics. OBVIOUSLY, IT’S BECOMING CLEAR . . . Jim Crawford doesn’t hesitate to ask Col. McCue for help and he finds that he has a willing teacher. Col. McCue helped out when’ Col. Roller was absent for two months. Basic to our learning is English...and no greater s A SHORT FELLOW reads Longfellow . . . Herb Widener reads aloud in Major Koogler’s class. No other teacher is as known for his lengthy reviews as is Major Koogler. ye” There is just no escape! But who would want to, if he really desires a college background? Every year at AMA, there must be an English course on the cadet’s schedule, and the ACE’s prove that this requirement is effec- tive. Coming back to AMA in January was Capt. Saunders, who also was a part of the history department. Capt. Hanson, Capt. Knight and Capt. Kiv- lighan round out the English faculty. Scientific, mathematic, ‘and lan- guage vocabularies are included as a part of each cadet’s grade for the first time this year. There certainly has been advancement in ‘59! HIPPITY HOP HOPPE... Lt. Weir can’t conceal his amusement over Hoppe’s long theme. Lt. Weir’s classes have become renowned for the original work required and for the constant drill in parts of speech. stress is placed on any subject at Augusta. LATE ADDITION to the department . . . Lt. Mowbry Allan, B.A. from Hampden-Sydney College, joined the faculty in January. Pitching in to help right away, Lt. Allen aids Mazzei, Wortman, Bley and Trimble, D. Lt. Allan was assigned one period of English and four of Latin. Sydney. Allan also has a B.S. from Hampden- “VM STILL CORRECTING YOU!” . . . Capt. Saunders, who arrived back home in January, finds that Kruppen- bacher still turns to him for help in English. Right now, he’s not convinced that those grammar stress sessions for which he is famous helped much. SIMILES, METAPHORS AND PARAPHRASES . . . Col. Deane’s Senior English class claims that one thing is certain—you’ll build up a vocabulary here or you'll never be able to even understand directions! That’s what will help on college boards. ty mv o,f nly UA | UMN Ue With future scientists like Coulon, Battenhouse, Wiese, o Loud bangs meant that Cape Ca- naveral wasn’t the only place hav- ing difficulty in launching moon rockets . . . Harris couldn't be left alone—daily he tried to head for outer space with his rockets, and daily, the grounds resounded with loud ‘’booms’’, New textbooks in chemistry proved to the cadets that they must know every type of problem before going on to college. With biology, geology, chemistry, and physics, and Major Savedge, Col. McCue, Capt. Hanson, Capt. Kivlighan and Col. Duff as teach- ers, AMA was keeping up its high standards in science. MAN, HE’S COLD ... and also collapsible. Nadon and Dove learn how to arrange man’s organs in biology class. Major Savedge, skeptical, watches the progress. VOLCANOES, GLACIERS, AND EARTHQUAKES... Col. Duff explains to Lowe and Doxey the theory of volcanism. Upper left is a diagram of a dip and a strike. Geology is divided into three parts—dynamic, minerological, and historical. and Harris, we'll have a satellite orbiting the galaxy! EARTHBOUND MACHINES for the moment . . . Col. McCue gives Mike Wiese and Jess Van Evera instruction on pulleys, levers, and machines for the moment, but later will come atomic energy and, possibly, outer space study in physics. 27 Science IS stressed at Augusta! TRACE that drop of blood Capt. Kivlighan helps Wolfson trace a drop of blood through the body. A graduate of Georgetown with a B.S., and the University of Virginia with an LL.B., Capt. Kiv- lighan also teaches geology and English. GALAXY GLOBE... . Capt. Hanson points out con- stellations to Juby in geology class. AMA is one of the few schools in the country to have a real geology course, to use college textbooks. QUALITATIVE or quantitative, it’s still hard . . . Dick Clough and John Hixon prepare to weigh out known compounds for titrations. AMA’‘s chemistry course stresses problems and qual with geiger counters and atomic energy equipment. Today’s news ... tomorrow's history. Progress, of a different sort, is cer- tainly obtained with a careful study of history. Suddenly ancient history becomes alive when a mid-Eastern crisis de- velops—civics takes on a deeper mean- ing as the filibuster debates make the headlines—English history continues on with Elizabeth I1 and Macmillan— and Alaska brings the 49 states and U.S. history right up to the moment. Guiding us in the formation of our opinions and conclusions to be reached from the study of history are Capt. Ralph, Major Davis, Capt. Saunders, Lt. Andrews and Col. Carruthers. “EARLIER TIMES” . . . Hurst finds that Major Davis makes the new an- cient history textbook have more meaning. Zahara and Field are ob- viously enjoying the class. BUT WHERE’S LEBANON? . . . The crisis last summer and the subsequent appearance of a cadet from Beirut activated Pintado, Rosenberg, Beller, Bowman and Roelle to action in Lt. Andrews’ class of ancient history. Lt. Andrews traces the beginning of the near-war scare with the background of Nasser in Egypt. NO REBEL YELL HERE .. . Capt. Ralph delights in having ‘“Yank‘’ Coulon explain the victories of the South, in the Civil War. Byrd, a _ true Southerner, looks on in obvious amusement. To learn to speak Spanish and French. . A nena ani cian AN mci aati = « : 1 . 5 . d; ” a by d “ wh RT THAT NASAL SOUND ... It may be amusing, but Col. Gardner stresses the correct pronunciation to Gaston, McVey and Holt. Long an advocate of learning the language and learning to speak it, Col. Gardner has had many winners in the National French contest. 30 ,.. language lab equipment is added at AMA. % And the language shall be spoken! At Augusta, this is intensi- fied by all of the language teachers. Adding to the department’s equip- me nt, new tape recorders, ear- phones, records, and tapes were added in ‘59 to encourage spoken use of Spanish and French par- ticularly. Each cadet who wishes to gradu- ate with a Scientific or an AMA diploma must have a minimum of two or three years of a language. Many cadets present two years of two languages for their diploma re- quirements, and some three years of one, or two years of one. Teaching language at AMA are Col. Gardner, Major Hoover, Major Sizer, Capt. Kreisler, Capt. Simans and Lt. Allan. “LATIN IS NOT A DEAD LAN- GUAGE! —Major Sizer stresses cor- rect soundings of the verb endings to Jackson, Boselli, Kruppenbacher and Tomasek. Lt. Allan, who arrived in January, became the other member of the Latin teacher duo, replacing Capt. C. S. Simans, a. graduate of West Virginia Wesleyan and Harvard University, who became ill in De- cember and was unable to return to the Academy. MERRIMENT REIGNS... AMA’s ole King Cole, Capt. Kreisler, the rotund teacher from Madrid, keeps his classes lively with his wit. Chip Smith and Bob Battenhouse react with laughs to a timely remark. 31 Mental and Physical astuteness with ROTC. DEEP SECRET .. . but the news will be out shortly. On your toes, men. . . could be a command on the drill field, over the hills, or in class. Continually, there is progress in military training, as new posi- tions are given to cadets as they advance in their achievements, in class and in ranks. New to the faculty this year is Sgt. Joseph Komisar, who teaches MST | and coaches the rifle team. With the excellent training and development given, AMA _ has been honored yearly with the designation “Honor School’’, a mark of distinction for everyone. Major Stark informs Col. Roller each Sunday which company has taken first place. It means a lot, for a plaque is awarded at Finals for the highest rated company. VISUAL AIDS HERE ALSO . . . Sgt Haynie prepares to operate the Vue-Graph for MST 2, to illustrate cone of fire and beaten zone. Jack Jackson, Townsend, Wortman and Chris Horsey prepare to take notes. DON’T LOOK OFF THE PAGE... Sgt. Thornton doesn’t care . . . he’s concerned with movies in MST 1, one of which no cadet will ever forget—the epic on trench foot! Perkins, R. pays close attention to the action. 32 sa Sen LC ee STARRING IN CLASS, TOO . . . Bill Gorman, ace on the varsity football team, stars as he explains to Sgt. Komisar and MST 1 the cycle of function of the M-1. Tompkins, Clark, Calvert, Herring, Quatmann, and Knowlden (front row), and Fuller and Whiteside pay attention to Big Bill. Military courtesy, M-1 automatic rifle, carbines and sanitation are the chief topics in the first year of military. MAP CHECKERS .... Mr. Hutton points out to Holt and Ridge the exact location of AMA on the contour map. Anderson, Leonard, Willcox and va 0 ate Snyder do their projects. : j CAUGHT SHORT .. . Sgt. Cumpston finds that Cadet Beller will have to do without his full field supply for a while. He just couldn’t catch up to the enrollment overnight. 33 Small classes, extra attention... Study hall every night—inspections three times a day—early to rise—early to bed—that’s AMA's Junior School. Major Lucus personally supervises every facet of the Junior Department, and a happier group of boys would be hard to find. Successful, indeed, has been the Junior choir, which has given programs at the “Y and for Christmas. The numerous teams in the small fry department pro- vide the training for the varsity in years to come. There can be no question about the progress in education in this department, for the freshman teachers find that the best prepared boys come from AMA’‘s Junior School! THIS IS A QUIZ? . . . Major Lucus puts uf his eighth grade history quiz, but the cadeti consider it an exam! Watching are Porte, 6, WONDERS NEVER CEASE .. . Capt. Mc- Dowell smiles, and the whole seventh grade takes a breather. Clagett, Hedden, Ruffner and Forsyth smile also, but when work is called for, no class does it any better or more accurately. FIELD TRIP . . . Just a short walk out of the eighth grade class in the gym to study differences among ever- greens. Capt. Livick points out the characteristics to McDonald, Mullowney and Baucom, three of his honor roll cadets. _.. start AMA Juniors to success. Benedik, Don Russell, and Re with just the backs of their heads showing, consternation can be discerned. be 4 ichard. Even a LANGUAGE DIFFICULTY .. . Mrs. Ralph’s Spanish minor at Hollins helps her with Delgado’s first English lesson. Not only does Mrs. Ralph help the small boys in her class, but she also has a class for new Spanish cadets, and has charge of the Drama group. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS .. . Capt. Hawpe keeps up the spirit of world study with his instruction on the geography and economic importance of Canada. Reiland, another honor roll student, listens to the explanation. PRESIDENT PUZZLE .. . Mrs. Davis's model of the White House and the inhabitants get a work-out in the fourth grade. Cassey, Shepard, Burns, and Lee try to identify the man and his years in office. Mrs. Davis is a real mother to all of the boys in the Junior school, in her capacity as housemother. 35 POOR HANDWRITING . . . you don’t have to have poor handwriting to learn typing, but most of the college crew find that their grades improve if the work is typewritten. Villareal, Coulon, Plazaola and Bartels try to make 35 words a minute and have the background for future required work. Elasticity . . . there is some in the choice of courses at AMA. Two commercial credits may be substituted for two history credits, or may be offered as extra credits for gradu- ation. Business law has shown its usefulness in several ways. First, a better understanding of contracts has resulted. Second, court and trial procedure has been clarified. Third, business English has been stressed. Typing’s value can’t be over-estimated, for it has been proven to be of great value to our alumni now in college, in business and in the Armed Forces. Future courses which may be offered at AMA are eco- nomics and business mathematics. PRESENT YOUR CASE... Col. Carruthers admonishes ‘’Radar’’ Phillips to be certain of the facts when he enters into a contract. Ralph Leonard soaks up the knowledge he may need for his potential television business. Col. McCrum, a law degree man from West Virginia University, took over the class in the second semester. 36 Flash cards, Accelerators, Help cadets Improve in Reading skills. PS ERT A LECADIN® LAnOH a NEW EQUIPMENT . .. Major Hoover helps Ennis and Jewart develop their reading skills with the aid of the new “SRA Reading Laboratory’. With a Master’s in reading, Major Hoover has helped many cadets to improve their backgrounds. Unique is AMA’s department of Remedial Reading. Every afternoon, Major Hoover and Col. Gardner hold their classes for boys who elect the course during drill period. AMA’s fully equipped labs_ in- cluded telebinoculars, accelerators, coordinators, ophthalmograph, and tape recorders, combined with the teaching skills of Col. Gardner and Major Hoover, have given AMA one of the best reputations in the area for reading training. Special attention is given to the boys in the Junior Department in order to insure that they will have learned to read properly and that they are developing on schedule. No boy is required to take remedial reading, but few boys turn down the chance when they realize what it means to them. HAND AND EYE COORDINATOR . . - Mariner traces the pattern under Col. Gardner’s supervision. Col. Gardner, with a M.Ed. in reading also, has, in addition, written a textbook in reading training and skills. The Activities Progress—’59 . . . a larger crop of new cadets .. . an even greater display of school spirit .. . better officers of the Cotillion Club . more and better pep rallies.

Mr. Shook inspires the corps at the Opening YMCA with the statement ‘Do your best, and leave the rest to God’’—Stonewall Jackson’s cornerstone to life. NO UNIFORMS AT AMA? .. . no, it’s the very first formation and Harlow (back row) and Leonard up front show that they’ve never had any real military training. Serwat and Helduser prove that they’re old hands at the game. “AH, DO | HAVE TO?” . . . Godoy doesn’t look one bit happy with his new dike, but Lt. Andrews approves the demonstration which Johnny Cupp has given the small one. KNOCKING KNEES... and the brand new First Capt. Pete Kelley feels that he has a right to be apprehensive at First Parade. Burreli, Towe and Bickford help Pete review the corps. . 40 EE ... drill... drill... in the classroom... on the field... September's song. Confusion reigns as September finds Augusta with a record corps. New faces daily; new routine; but more importantly, there was a new spirit, a new feeling about wanting to work—to learn. From uniform ‘fittings, to ban- quets, registration days, to classes, the corps rapidly became acclimated to new procedure and to new faces. And lo! We knew we had a winning football team. Spirits everywhere soared. New teachers made _ friends quickly and added their part to every function. Rocketry and photography blossomed through- out the school. A good beginning! M-1 MANIA .. . Mencio finds that the M-1 is complicated to take apart and reassemble. Alperstein discovers that his weapon needs a good cleaning. SAME STORY, DIFFERENT SETTING Wilkins and Bowen find that the new boxes, one for each cadet, doesn’t mean more mail— it’s just easier to see when there's none! HIS EYE’S ON THE FOOD .. . Carlos Giam- maria watches Lampie watching him, but he won't share the chicken salad.

Towe, Siman, Wiese and a small part of Chip Smith shows that the quantity of f ood is copious and so are the appetites at the ‘’Big’’ meal, Thanksgiving banquet and awards night.

McCue and Major Koogler give out the athletic awards at the Football- Thanksgiving banquet. After the spectacular victory over FMS, Col.

PROUD PROGRESS ... . little J. C. McCue III anxiously watches Col. J. C. McCue, Jr. register him as the third generation of his family to attend AMA. Steve Linton and Stacy Harris note the enthusiasm of Cadet McCue. 64 AMA’s ’59 Seniors awakened early to WALTER RANDOLPH ANDERSON Staunton, Virginia Pvt., 1; M-Sgt., 2; Captain, 3; Foot- ball, 1, 2, 3; Basketball, 1, captain, 2, 3; Baseball, 1-3; Golf, 2, 3: Honor Committee, 2, 3; Roller Rifles, 2, C. O., 3; Student Body Officer, 3; Cotillion Club, 1-3. Moody—that’s the C. W.’s description of Big Andy. When AMA’s winning, life is fine, but if the score is in the wrong direction, life can be right difficult. No one could have welded such a large group of boys into a smooth unit — Headquarters — but Andy. An athlete, a good student and a quiet man—it’s Andy, a leader now and later, too. ae LEE RAY BERGMAN Durham, North Carolina Pyt., 1; Cpl., 2, 3; Sgt., 4; 2nd Lt., 5; Honor Roll, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1-5. They said it couldn't be done, but they just didn’t know Lee Ray—’’E” Company just couldn’t learn to drill—Ha!—Ole Lee Ray gave them Roller Rifle maneuvers and incentive—and his platoon is just about the sharpest one on the field. Lee Ray’s quiet, conservative and a real gentleman, but he just won’t give the girls a chance to latch on to all that Durham charm! ROBERT THOMAS BATTENHOUSE Westlake, Ohio Sgt., 1; 2nd Lt., 2; Honor Committee, 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Honor Roll, 1, 2; Algebra 2 medal, 1; Spanish medal, 1; NROTC scholarship, 2. Chameleon—that was ‘’Bugs’’ when he arrived at AMA and decided to lead the pack—and that’s- what he’s done. Kind and considerate, he’s made every cadet in his platoon feel that he had a friend. One of the most efficient officers in the corps, he’s also been tops in academics, sharing his knowledge with anyone who wanted help. He’s a Yankee whom we gladly integrated! 66 _- the need for more study... higher grades. WILLIAM MILTON BLAKELY, JR. Louisville, Georgia Pyvt., 1; M Sgt., 2; RECALL, 1; Rifle team, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Honor Roll, 1. Frustration personified—he just can’t decide what mail box to put it in... that’s because NO ONE puts box numbers on their letters, but our shy, unassuming Georgia lad has really done a great job with the new mail boxes. Potentialities unlimited in scholastic fields, and he’s been a real shot on the rifle team! Teacher, preacher or lawyer, Bill will be a credit to AMA. ab WILLIAM CROCKETT BOWEN a a Bland, Virginia Cpl., 1; First Sgt., 2; Honor Committee, 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Cotillion Club, I,,2; Southwestern Virginia farm boy—we just couldn’t take the country out of Big Bill, but no one would want to do it. Respected, admired and emulated, Bill has set an example of gentleness which is surprising for one of his size. Outstanding new cadet and a big help to the officers in Barracks, he’s always got a joke, a dry retort, or a smile. WILLIAM JOHN BURRELL Madrid, Spain Pvt. 1 Coll, 2; Sot.,.3) 2nd Lt, 4% Capt. OM, 5: Cotillion Club. 1-5; Decorating Committee, 1-4, chm., 5; Roller Rifles, 4, 5; Rifle Team, 3-5; Lacrosse team, 1, 2, 5; Fencing team, 1, 2; RECALL, 4; Bayonet, Bus. Mgr., 5; Honor Roll, 1, 2, 3 ; Bill’s just about the most volatile cadet at AMA, but when he isn’t blowing up, he can accomplish just about anything he wants to. Final Ball, Holiday Ball or Openings just wouldn't have been the same without the Burrell touch . . . perfect ceilings, intricate patterns. And Bill, too, is a lover. 67 Progressing rapidly onward, the old JOHN ADAM KEENE BYRD Hot Springs, Virginia Pvt., 1; 2nd Lt., 2; Varsity Football, 1, 2; Basketball, 1, 2; Baseball, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Glee Club, 1; Drama Club, 2. Glance at the cadet with the cocky walk; listen to the wise remark; watch the lad on the football field, basket- ball court or on the baseball diamond —couldn’t be anyone but Keene. He took up where Butter left off and he’s done a great job. Keene has the capacity for appearing self-assured under any circumstance, especially with women of any age! MAURICE WALKER COULON Boston, Massachusetts Pvt, 1} SPC, (2) Pvé., 3, 43 Tiger Football, 1, 2; Tiger Basketball, 1; Tiger Baseball, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1-3; 1st Place National French Contest; Algebra 2 medal; Wrestling team, 3, 4;‘Honor Roll, 1-4; NROTC scholar- ship, 4. Brains—there’s no doubt—NROTC scholarship winner—first place in French in the Modern Language Tournament—medalist in Algebra 2— brawn—interested in every sport at AMA—winner in his class in wrestling in nearly every meet... It’s Buzzy, our mighty mite from Boston, accent and all. If Buz wanted to, he could get a job ot Las Vegas at any time ... just ask the C.W.’s! DAVID OLIVER CONRAD Wilmington, Delaware Pvt., 1; Sgt., 2; Ist Lt., 3, 4; Capt., 4; Tiger Football, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1-4; Roller Rifles, 3, 4; Decorator, 1-4; Student Body Officer, 4; Honor Committee, 4; RECALL, Bus. Magr., 3, 4. The Voice! D.O.C. And there’s no doubt that his favorite dish is sPam! Dave's been confessor to the girls at Stuart Hall e’er these many years, and there’s no doubt that the personality kid has been just about the best business manager that a yearbook could have. Never quiet, never calm, always active, his voice has sometimes led him into trouble, but his desire to do what's right can’t be doubted! 68 GEORGE LLOYD EASTLACK South Boston, Virginia Pvt, I; M Sot., 2; 2nd Lt, 3: Ist Lt., 4; Swimming, 1-4; Football, 2; Glee Club, 3; YMCA Officer, 2, 3, 4; Roller Rifles, 2-4; Cotillion Club, 1-3; Secretary, 4; Decorator, 1-4. Such a father to the boys in E Com- pany—that’s what Lloyd wants us to say and that’s the truth! Lloyd man- aged to spend part of his time before the mirror, the other in advising his friends. Of course, he’s spent right much time in Chemistry and at Stuart Hall! Loyal to the YMCA, Lloyd’s been a determined president. A fine swimmer, that extra weight held him away from the water in ‘59, so he spent more time on the books. cadet Seniors saw three NROTC winners! KENNETH WARD COYNER Staunton, Virginia Pvt., 1, 2, 3; Varsity Football, 1, 2, 3; Varsity Basketball, 1, 2, 3; Varsity Baseball, 1, 2, 3. Nobody, but nobody at AMA loves athletics more than Ken. And he’s kept his grades up high in order to shine in every sport that he really likes. On the football field, that flash of lightning is No. 9—Coyner. And in bas ketball and baseball, Ken dis- plays sharpness and ability which will carry him far in collegiate competi- tion. Quiet, withdrawn and sincere, the term ‘nice guy’’ aptly describes Ken. ROBERT BECKER DURST, JR. Southampton, Pennsylvania Py, Is Sat, 2.00) and Lt, 43 Vst Lt., 5; Roller Rifles, 3, 4, 5; Tiger Football, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1-5; Honor Committee, 5. Happy-go-lucky—that’s the appear- ance Bob gives, but there’s a deep current down under that surface! And that’s what the Honor. Committee has found out this year, for Bob was al- ways willing to ask a few pertinent questions, succinct, to say the least. Bob’s the Durst with the long, blond hair which somehow always managed to escape the clippers. Yankee through and through, we just couldn’t convince him that the South had a side in THAT war. 69 Realizing the importance of hard work FRED WALKER EVANS Wilmington, Delaware Pyt., 1; Sgt., 2; RECALL, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. “I'd rather kiss a cat’’ , . . this state- ment will go down in history! Even though Fred discovered that it was spring all year as far as love was concerned, he still preferred pets to girls! Of course, food and Fred go together like a horse and carriage. Famous for his appetite, his packages from home and his beloved ‘‘sub- marines”, Fred’s jovial, naive and as generous as they come. We'll not’ for- get that rotund personality or his description of his romances! JOSE FERREIRO R. Santiago de Cuba Pyt., 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. Revolutionist! This year that title could describe just about all of our Cuban cadets, but there’s a special difference in Jose's case: constantly he has nose buried in every bit of material that he can read about the disturbance and he considers himself an authority on every phase of the Revolution. Jose pictures himself as a gigol o (gigolo) but we picture him as a good student, a kind person and a smiling Cuban, CARLOS GIAMMARIA R. Barranquilla, Colombia Pvt, TF Sat, 2) “Tsp be, Si. 4, see Capt., 6; Junior Athletics, 1; Student Body Officers, 4, 5, 6; Honor Com- mittee, 4, 5, 6; Roller Rifles, 3-6; Ad Astra, 4, 5, 6. Best dressed cadet—that’s the honor the corps has paid Carlos for three years. And he’s also the biggest fisherman—if he doesn’t catch them, there aren't any! AMA won’t seem the same without a Giammaria. Out- standing from his first year, Charlie’s been part and parcel of the Honor Committee and Student Body Officers for three years. Stern and efficient, yes—but that doesn’t conceal his de- lightful attitude toward life! 70 Seniors requested longer study hours. GILBERTO GIL S. Habana, Cuba Pvt.,. ls Sgt., 2,3; Fencing, 1, 2, 3: Bayonet, 2; Cotillion Club, 2. Satellite No. 1. That’s the appella- tion given Gilberto by his fellow Latins. And yet, Gilberto’s as worldly as they come. Another one of our “mirror’’ men, he wouldn’t think of letting Gook get loose on his hair. Nervous, excitable and trigger quick, this boy really talks with his hands. Gilberto’s really been an asset to the fencers ‘cause he can use those hands! His pet peeve here—guard duty. HANS PETER HANSEN Louisville, Kentucky Pvt., 1, 2; Bayonet, 1. Oh, who’s our happy wanderer? None, but Hans Peter—who likes to sing his theme song and tap dance to it on the slightest provocation. Pete's also our invisible man!—disappears— reappears. Pete’s taken a lot of kid- ding and he’s just about as good- natured as they come. Studious, seri- ous and determined, here’s one. boy who is still water—cool and deep! JOHN ELBERT HOLDER Hillsville, Virginia Pvt., 1; Ist Sgt., 2; Honor Committee, 1, 2; Football, 1, 2; Baseball, 1, 2; Wrestling, 1; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Roller Rifles, 2. Big John’s eating habits haven't changed a bit during the year—he’s still the unchallenged champ of the full plate. No one believes he’s changed that ‘“‘chaw’ of tobacco either! Truthfully, John’s as sincere, honest, forthright and good as any cadet at AMA. We're going to miss that drawl, that appetite, those friendly ‘‘chaws” and those rock ‘n roll sessions. The scouts haven't signed him up yet, but maybe he’ll hit the big time yet. 71 ’59’s Seniors sought entrance to diverse CLAY FRANKLIN JOHNSON Newport News, Virginia Gol, 12 Ust Lt, 2: Football, 1, 2: Basketball, 1, 2; Baseball, 1, 2; Cotil- lion Club, 2; Track, 1; Honor Com- mittee, 2. Most valuable football player award for two years, but to Mike and Zeke, Clay’s sharing of a locker was some- what tedious. Chief trash can emptier, Clay manages to evade cleaning the room—he’s a flash in athletics, but in No. 1, he’s molasses. Easy to get along with, Clay’s constantly one big smile, particularly when he’s with his best friend, Andy. Drum major of the Band, Clay cuts a mean figure on the field, and he’s got the girls to go with that golden personality! DAVID WILLIAM HUNT Jackson, Michigan Pyt., 1; Sgt., 2; Swimming, 1; Foot- ball, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. From the ‘Exterminators’ in Michi- gan, it was but a short jump to the trumpet club here and he’s done a pretty good job on that, too! Dave's dike boy, Hughes, has several claims against his best friend—he swears that the only water Dave’s seen in a year was in the swimming pool in ‘58! That Super room was due to Dave's efforts to always be on top. . . and that widow’s peak is a holdover from the Michigan days! WILLIAM CALHOUN KELLEY Brooke, Virginia Pvt., Ty Sot, 2% ist Lt, 3: Bottalion Commander, 4; Football, 1-4, captain, 3, 4; Lacrosse, 1-4; Cotillion Club, 1-4: Decorator, 1-4; Basketball, mgr., 2; Roller Rifles, 2, 3, executive officer, 4; Honor Committee, 3, president, 4; Student Body Officers, 3, president, 4; Final Ball officer, 3, 4; Ad Astra, 3, 4. A real cut-up, that’s Pete, once ‘the most-busted man at Augusta. That's why he knows the ropes and has been able to anticipate trouble as First Captain. Lampie’s twin, Pete and Ralph are inseparable. Pete’s pulled AMA’s largest corps together even with many obstacles. Loving AMA and the Valley as few cadets have ever done, Pete’s put out his best and it shows every day in every way. 72 MARTIN FRANCIS KRUPPENBACHER Yonkers, New York Pvt. Is Sot) 2; Swimming, 1, 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. Noisiest corner in barracks—201, the center—naturally, Kruppenbacher is there. The Yankee bombshell en- livens every place he goes and he certainly has left his mark on AMA! Beneath that wild New York exterior beats the determination to surge ahead, and Marty’s studied hard in order to do just that. Marty’s still trying to sell us the Brooklyn Bridge, but, instead, we’ve convinced him that the South is God’s country. CHARLES VANDERBILT LANG West Orange, New Jersey Pvt., 1; SFC, 2; Ist Lt., 3, 4; Roller Rifles, 2-4; Cotillion Club, 1-4; Decorator, 2, 3, chm., 3; Cheerleader, 3, 4; Basketball, 1, 2; Honor Roll, 3; Glee Club, 3. We don’t need a newspaper at AMA with Lang around—for four years he’s seen that we get all of the news as soon as it happens! Chuck's a truly fine decorator and no old cadet will fotget the Final Ball ‘58 and all the work he put into it. Versatile, Chuck’s an athlete, a songbird and a student. He'll keep that nose to the grindstone! RALPH WILLIAM LAMPIE, JR. Richmond, Virginia Pvt., 1; First Sgt., 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Cotillion Club, 2; CAFC, 2. Kelley's half brother, Ralph, has had to take care of his ‘children’ throughout the year, as first sergeant of ’’E’’ Company. Another of our invisible men, Ralph’s seldom seen in the afternoon until the time arrives for mail. With his trademark of ‘‘jeep’’, he sometimes confuses with a run on the “Green Ghost’’. One of the most efficient men on O.D., he’s also one of the most feared. Pete couldn’t have done without Ralph or Ralph without Pete. 73 More serious, more purposeful, Seniors JOSEPH FRANCIS LARUE Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania Pvt., 1-3; Sgt., 4; Ist Sgt., 5; Basket- ball, 2; Football, 3, 4, 5; Track, 4; Swimming, 2, 5; Lacrosse, 1; Roller Rifles, 5; Cotillion Club, 1-5; Decora- tor, 2-5; Glee Club, 4; Dramatics, 5. “Wanted!’’—that’s what the Military Department says about Joe—that if there’s a war, he’s the cadet they'd most like to have in their platoon! Ole Joe's tried just about everything at AMA, and the results have been above average. Joe’s tables at dances have been as distinctive as his state- ment that ‘books aren’t going to in- terfere with my education!” WILLIAM PERRATON MAYNE II Bailey’s Bay, Bermuda Pyvt., 1; Sgt., 2; Ist Lt., 3; Rifle Team, 2, 3; Roller Rifles, 3; Cotillion Club, 1, 2)-3; Tennis, 2, 3. A pretty big “’shot’’ on the Rifle Team, Bill’s the quiet member of the duo who are ‘’subjects of the Queen’’. For two years, Bill and John had the “cleanest room in barracks’’, and Bill maintains that immaculate appearance in his uniform. John and Bill aren’t twins, but they stick up for one another against all odds. Serious and studious, Bill’s headed in the right direction. ERIC ORYOUNG LOGAN Springfield, Virginia Pyt,,, 13: Sot, 2+ Pvt, 3: Decorator, 2.3: Virginia gave AMA two hillbillies—Bowen and Logan. ‘Fact is, Eric and his guitar are symbolic of a western country music cult and most cadets believe he’s from West(ern) Virginia. As distinctive as his long blonde hair and his drawl is his love of the outdoors. Eric’s rather quiet, but on the subjects of farming, hiking and music, he’s a monologue of information and fun. Workhorse is a title he aptly deserves. 74 59 still prefer rock ’n’ roll, but not Elvis! CARL RODGER MORRIS Crozet, Virginia Pvt., 1; Ist Sgt., 2; Capt., 3; Battalion Adjutant, 4; Football, 1; Basketball, 1; Baseball, 1-4; Rifle Team, 2-4, capt., 3, 4; Honor Committee, 2-4; Student Body Officers, 3, 4; Decora- tor, 1-3; Ad Astra, 2, 3, 4; YMCA, 2, 3; Roller Rifles, 4; Cheerleader, 2. Tip-tap Rodger—everyone in the Val- ley is bound to have seen Rodger at one time or another performing his famous tap dance at one of the many charity shows. Excelling also as a shot on the Rifle Team and as a pitcher, Rodger’s well loved when he makes out the guard roster! Sensitive about his home town’s size (population 50), Rodger’s a loyal son of Augusta! HUGH ANDREW MOULSE, JR. Roanoke, Virginia Pyt., 1; Sgt., 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. Sieg Heil, Mousie!’” The ‘Beat Generation’’ has found a supporter in Mousie and the other members of the 3rd Stoop Tower Gestapo Association. Noted for his remarkable ability in card-playing, he’s also noted for his re- semblance to Corky—in fact, ‘ere’s ears, No. 2! A big cut-up in class, Mousie still manages to maintain a high average and the friendship of his instructors—and there’s no doubt that he’s popular with the corps! WILLIAM McDONALD McGRATH, III Newport News, Virginia Pvt., 1; M Sgt., 2; Football, 1, 2; Fencing, 1, 2; Baseball, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Roller Rifles, 2. “Poodle’’ not only likes cuckoo clocks, but now he’s adopting any stray kittens that he can find. This has made him extremely popular with his roommates! Possessor of the prettiest sister in the school, Bill’s sister was a Princess last year. Sensitive about his ears, Bill shouldn’t be, ‘cause he’s one of the most popular color guardsmen at AMA. Never has he been seen in a bad mood—he just smiles all of the time! . 75 With the best football team in eight CARLOS J. PEREZ, R. Banes, Oriente, Cuba Pyt., 1, 2; Sgt., 3; Bayonet, Art Edi- tor, 2, 3; Final Ball Decorator, 2, 3. As soon as Carlos arrived on the Ft. Defiance scene, he had a nickname from his Latin American buddies— “Mampiro’“—and no one deserves such a name any less. Carlos is kind, considerate, and helpful whenever he’s called on, and he has really helped the ‘“Bayonet’’ and Final Ball with his expert art work. During the summer, Carlos is another one of our fishermen, and in that sport, he is tops. ROGER VINCENT RAMOS, JR. Long Beach, California Pvt., 1, 2; Glee Club, 1; Dramatics, 2; Armory Staff, 2; Decorator, 1, 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2. Bill just couldn’t have found some one more obsequious than Roger. With- out Roger, the dances in ‘58 and ‘59 just wouldn’t have been as well deco- rated. Bill and Roger formed the unbeatable team! Expert, on the M-1, Roger wants to have a military career and expand his knowledge in all directions. Our southpaw from California has kept his grades up high for two years; on his way to a service academy is our “Cherokee Charlie’! ALDOFO PLAZAOLA, F. Oriente, Cuba Pvt., 1, 2, 3; Basketball, 1; Football, 1, 2, 3; Baseball, 1, 2, 3. Clip, clip: that’s bound to be ‘“Gook”’ taking care of the boys just before in- spection. Barber without a license, Gook has a steady trade, and he does a bang-up job. Without that black leather jacket, it’s just not the same “Gook”’ that we know —a ladies’ man, a man’s ball player, and a barrel of fun. And that rock ‘n’ roll with a Latin beat is the music Gook likes. 76 each Senior had pleasant memories. CHARLES ELLIOTT RIDGE, III Hillsville, Virginia Pvt., 1; 2nd Lt., 2; Captain, 3; Co- tillion Club, 1, 2, president, 3; Final Ball Officer, 2, 3; Decorator, 1, 2, 3; Roller Rifles, 2, 3; Swimming, 1; Foot- ball, 1, 3; Tennis, 1, 2, 3; Rifle Team, 2; YMCA officer, 2, 3; RECALL, 2, 3; Ad Astra, 2, 3; Honor Committee, 3; Student Body Officer, 3. Have you ‘eard about ears? Our boy, Corky, takes a lot of kidding about his trademark, but the boy from the mountains has done a fine job as cap- tain of the Band. In fact, he’s made it the best ever. Regarded as a cupid by some boys, he’s AMA’s link with Stuart Hall. He’s one of the best, even if we do kid him constantly. STUART ARCHER SMITH, JR. Warrenton, Virginia Pvt., 1; M Sgt., 2; Cotillion Club, 1, 2; Decorator, 1, 2. Tall tale teller, Chip has about as much influence with the Military De- partment as anyone at AMA. Large in size, on the dance floor, he glides as if he’s floating. Must be due to the Gold Cup —Civil War influences of Warrenton that makes him smooth in everything he does. His personality is as corpulent as his physique. An author already, Chip’s had an article published about the Civil War! This boy is really Southern!

Rocky began to take himself too seri- ously this year; up to now, he’s been a ball of fire in everything at AMA. No person could love the school as much as he, and yet have so many. contro- versies about his school! One of the unholy three, Rocky’s wrestling was in top form. Kin to everybody in the Val- ley, the Rock has certainly been an in- fluence on his alma mater. VW | Contributing to a successful year in ¢ JOHN FREDERICK STECIW Bay Village, Ohio Pvt., 1; M Sgt., 2; Infirmary, 2; Co- tillion Club, 1, 2; Decorator, 1, 2; Movie Projectionist, 2. Answer to a prayer—that’s what Mrs. Canevet says about John and his help in the Infirmary. Added to that, it’s influenced him to such an extent, that he’s decided to major in pre-med in- stead of engineering. Electrician, pro- jectionist,and decorator, John’s spread himself around the school, and it hasn’t been thinly done. In many ways, he’s been following in Smoot’s footsteps! DONNIE RAY TABOR Staunton, Virginia Pvt.,. 17 ist: Sgt, 2¢-Football, 1, 2: Basketball, 1, 2; Roller Rifles, 2; Co- tillion Club, 2. “I’m going down through the Sunken Garden to the lower Social Hall’’— that’s the master of the double talk, Donnie Ray speaking. Mouthpiece of Headquarters Company, he’s managed to get the boys up on time. A real lover, Don’‘s especially fond of civilian clothes, and he really knows how to dress. Ole ‘’Tomato’s’’ one fine ath- lete—in football and in basketball. One sport he just can’t master, how- ever, is fishing! ) TYRONE GUTHRIE TOMASEK Baltimore, Maryland Pyt.,. 1, 2€pl:, 33 SFC, 4: M Soti, 5: 2nd.

Caesar and Ty have perfected this, and spread the cult. Nine years at AMA! It just won’t seem the same without Ty, and that fourth stoop tower will never be the same. Glance at his activities—look : at his picture—he has been a real | part of Augusta. Popular? His boys — paid $80 during the Polio drive just to __ : _... oad keep him in ’’A’’ Company!

Chocolate Drop’’—that’s just about the only nickname that Jim doesn’t like, but he’ll go along with anything! Hard luck struck Jim this year, and we all found out that he has more real stuff than just about anyone, and he, in turn, found out that he had more friends than he ever suspected. His fortitude and humor will always keep him on top. Anyone who calls Jim friend” is fortunate. JES RYNIER VAN EVERA Martinsburg; West Virginia Pvt., 1; Sot., 2, 3, 4; Loeresse, 1; Rifle Team, 4; Roller Rifles, 4; Wrest- ling Team, 1-4. Known around school as a woman hat- er, he claims that in West Virginia it’s a different story! Our Jes has been a strong man on the wrestling team for four years, and he combines two win- ter sports at the same time! Jes is one of the few people who never gripes about anything. He’s been as easy to get along with and as easy to live with as anyone could wish for. PEDRO VILLAREAL Santa Ana, El Salvador Pyt., t, 22-Sot., 3: Obviously, Pedro’s spent his time on the books, and it’s really been obvious during his senior year. Pete’s made Honor Roll, and he’s been one of the best physics students. Quiet, polite, and studious, Pete’s not been out- going, but he’s been a close friend to a few who found that he’d do anything to help them when they needed help. Must be that he’s loyal through and through, because he’s been true to his girl back home. 70. 59 Seniors were AMA’s leaders in all fields! LYLE MONROE WAGNER Crozet, Virginia Pvt.,. 1: Sgt, 2, 32 2nd Lt, 4; Sgt. 5; Football, 1; Fencing, 2;?Cotillion Club, 2, 5; Baseball, 4, 5. When that left hand of Lyle’s starts to draw cartoons, watch out for the sar- casm! It really flows! One of the best students in the school, potentially, Lyle’s let off his steam in cartooning, reading, and in learning the automo- tive lingo. Witty, and quick, Lyle’s managed to sneak in a lot of hori- zontal lab time, and a lot of listening time to radio with his ear-lobe tran- sistor. When Lyle gets on the right © | : track, he'll go, go, go!

Though the assets are of a different type, he has as many as GAC—personality, in- telligence, honesty, and ability. Editor of the RECALL for two years, Mike streamlined his books, added new fea- tures, and brought honors to it and to himself. Responsible for the senior write-ups this year, Mike’s sharp wit can easily be detected. High on every- one’s list of boys to be recalled, “he doesn’t even act or talk like a Yankee any more!

When love walked in during Zeke’s senior year, he became as well known at Stuart Hall as at AMA. Honest as the day is long, Zeke’s standards are high. Ole ‘’Shoe Shine King’’ had a real friend in Doc, and he was a friend to everyone. AMA has meant a lot to Zeke.

LAST PLAY OF THE FIRST HALF... Score 13-0 in favor of AMA, when Ken Coyner broke loose to toss a pass 30 yards to Tabor, who went over for the tally. Coyner’s kick made the score at halftime 20-0. 128 There was just no stopping the Blue Streaks for six straight games! In the first six starts AMA was un- scored on, except by VES, and it looked as if AMA had fielded its first undefeated team since 1951. Up against EHS in a pouring rain, spirits drooped and for the only time in the season, AMA ended up on the short end of the score, 0-19. Snap- ping back the following weekend, AMA rolled over Randolph-Macon 34-13 and completed its highly suc- cessful year with a 32-6 victory over arch rival, Fishburne, on Thanks- giving Day. Statistics show the power of AMA s defensive play, as the Blue Streaks’ opponents tallied 44 points to AMA’s 278. No editorializing is necessary to praise AMA's offensive play—278 points does that! ... first win over Foresters in ten years...a romp over NA... DOWN AND DOWN PETE GOES... . but that wasn’t typical of full- back Kelley who pulled AMA out of a hole against FMS. FMS drew And The Rains Fell For Woodberry’s Fall! Amid seas of mud, AMA‘s Blue Streaks gained its first win over Woodberry Forest in ten years! AMA‘s_ rock-hard defense held the Orange-men to 42 yards gained, while a_ sparkling offense built around Clay Johnson, Gorman and Coyner consistently penetrated the Woodberry defense. Early in the second period, speedy scatback Clay Johnson grabbed the pigskin and raced 24 yards through mud and the Orange-men’s defense to pay-dirt. Completely dominating the sec- ond half both on offense and de- fense, AMA kept WF bottled in its own territory. Zehmer, Kelley and Townsend added the final 2 points, as they trapped a Woodberry back in his own end zone. Final score— 8-0! first blood, but the Blue Streaks won 32-6. Cadets Smother Norfolk Academy 55-0 On Home Ground Long drives from the first whistle helped the AMA cadets to coast to an easy victory over Norfolk Acad- emy ona dry, dusty field at Fort Defiance. Driving down the field on long passes and runs, the Blue Streaks crossed the goal marker five times in the first half. Ken Coyner’s gold- en toe booted 7 out of 8 extra points for the Streaks. A spectacular event occurred when Walt Anderson kicked a 68 yard punt. Led by speedy runs by Clay Johnson, Bill Gorman and Ken Coyner, and the target accurate passes of Keene Byrd, the cadets crossed the goal line three more times in the second half. Victory was AMA's for the second straight weekend! EVEN WITH AN INJURED HAND... Zehmer was accurate on the receiving end. Catching a beauty in the RMA game, Zeke streaked over for a tally ae it was called back! AMA won, -13. 129 ... Blast V.E.S. and then go on to avenge three Fumble, fumble, who’s got the ball? .. . Fumbles characterized the 55-0 win over Nor- folk Academy. Fumbling five times, NA’s mis- takes were capitalized on by AMA four times. Late in the third period, Sherrer trapped end Tom Ryan behind the line of scrimmage, straight losses to St. Christopher's... 130 « ¥ er Ny grabbed the pigskin, and fell on it. Just visible is Sherrer’s helmet (No. 12). Help came from Don Tabor (No. 15), but it was too late on this play to turn the fumble recovered into yardage gained. Rollermen Rout VES 34-6 Keeping up its winning ways by quickly gain- ing the upper hand over VES, Clay Johnson streaked 15 and then 48 yards to tally two touchdowns in the initial period. Ken Coyner’s educated toe made good both extra points. After a hard fought scoreless second period, the Blue Streaks struck again on a 10-yard scoring pass from Coyner to Anthony. Coyner added the extra point with his kick and went on to score later with a six-yard sneak. Coyner helped the score with his extra point and in the final AMA score, passed 30 yards to John- son, and then split the uprights for the extra point. VES‘s only tally came in the third quar- ter, ending up on the wrong end of a 34-6 score. “RADAR” HITS No. 3 HOLE. . Byrd (No, 20) hands off to Ra- dar Phillips (No. 21) during the Miller game, but Radar trips over Wainwright (No. 14), who had come in to block his man. AMA gained 3, and the game saw an astronomical score of 69-0 for the Blue Streaks. Saints Bow to the Streaks 20-0 Touted as a tough team to beat early in the season, St. Christopher's got a taste of AMA’‘s powerful defense which contained every of- fense the Saints could put forth. Not getting started until the second quarter was almost over, two quick scores came before the half. The cadets’ third score came late in the third period when a Saint fumble on their five set the stage for Bucky Sherrer to plow down the middle for the final six points. PETE BARRELS THROUGH AGAIN ... and it takes just about the whole RMA line to stop him! AMA was in the win column again with a 34-13 victory. KICK-OFFS ARE IMPORTANT, TOO .. and Zehmer’s left toe got a work- out all season long. Here Zehmer (No. 2) begins his fifth left-footed boot during the FMS game. 131 GOLDEN TOE... Coyner’s golden toe gives way to a fleet footed run against FMS on Turkey Day. A short gain helped AMA on its march downfield. Zehmer throws an effective BABY GENERALS BOW 26-0 TO THE POWERFUL BLUE STREAKS With the Blue Streaks playing be- fore a home crowd, the Baby Gen- erals of Washington and Lee real- ized within minutes that they could not penetrate any closer than the 17-yard of the Augustans. Crossing the W L Frosh white marker late in the first quarter on a pass from Coyner to Clay Johnson and twice again in the second quar- ter on another one of Coyner’s ac- curate passes and an unbelievable 91-yard run by Bucky Sherrer, the Rollermen had a 20-0 lead at half- time. A scoreless third quarter gave way to another tally in the fourth quarter when Dick Phillips crashed around the right side of the line for the final score. AMA had won its first contest with a freshman team since 1951. block. MILLER SCHOOL DEFENSELESS AGAINST THE CADET MIGHT Unable to muster a defense on the opening play, there was just no stopping the Blue Streak team for four quarters. Scoring ten touchdowns, five came as the result of Miller School fumbles and intercepted passes. Leading the scoring with two touchdowns and five conversions was Ken Coyner. Players with one goal apiece were Johnson, Kelley, Zehmer, Trimble, Gorman, Wainwright, LaRue and Byrd. 36 men saw action in the 69-0 game against Miller. _..

Picking up a first, here Bucky plows through for six yards. ‘ 132 School 69-0 ... Blue Streaks receive their only setback against EHS... EHS DROWNS AUGUSTA 19-0 And the spirits went down, down, down. With a EHS score within the opening three minutes of the game, AMA was never able to muster the same spirit, drive and determination which it had dis- played in its first six starts. Playing in Alexandria on a field thick with mud from an_ intermittent rain, neither team was able to do much run- ning or passing. Scoring again in the second period, EHS had a 13-0 lead at half-time. Rebounding in the third quarter, the Blue Streaks looked set for a TD when a fumble ended their drive. Intercepting an AMA pass in the fourth period, EHS ran for their third touchdown of the rainy day. GLOOMY SATURDAY .. . Zehmer tries to catch up with Tom Fitzhugh during the mud-curdling EHS game, but Fitzhugh pulled away to score in the second period. SUNSHINE SATURDAY .. . Just before the skies erupted, Coyner scoots around end during the Woodberry Forest game. Calhoun came in to help, but the Woodberry men trapped Ken for a loss. The rains brought victory this time, however, as AMA beat the Orange-men for the first time in over ten years. 133 ... Blue Streaks sting Yellow Jackets 34 to [3 RANDOLPH-MACON SMOTHERED Rebounding from the stinging loss to EHS the week before, AMA‘s Big Blue team came roaring back on its home field to smother the Macon-men from Front Royal. Turning loose a running and aerial attack, AMA scored twice in the first few minutes of play. Two more TD plays were called back, but the Blue Streaks couldn't be demoralized. Starting for AMA as quarterback was Ken Coyner who scored one six pointer and passed Y for three others. Defensively, AMA allowed RMA only one first down during the first three quarters of play. Meeting the oncoming Yellow Jackets were Walt Anderson, Don Tabor and John Holder who held the Jackets play after play and knocked down all passes. : In the final quarter, the final AMA TD came ona long run by Jim Crawford, ending the game with a 34 to 13 victory for Augusta. LEAP FROG, LEAP... In one of the most spectacular plays of the year, Clay Johnson started around his end, jumped over his man, took four or five more steps, to gain a total of five yards against the Macon-men, Cap- tured on film by Hal Dillon, this shot converted him to 35mm photography! ...and then roast Fishburne 32 to 6 on Thanksgiving Day!

Giving up three key players to the varsity, the last two games found the junior Roller-’ men in the loss column. White- side, tackle, and Ridge, center, were the backbone of AMA’s defensive line. Trimble, who stepped up to the varsity, intercepted the pass which sparked the team to a romping victory over Fish- burne in the first game. Unable to out-maneuver AMA‘s defensive squad, VES fumbled in the first quarter. Recovering for the Streaks, C. Rodriguez started the scor- ing spree. Weight and size advantage, a decisive factor in the first three games, couldn't overcome the experience of AMA’s opponents in the final two games. IN FOR THE TACKLE... Fishburne’s speedy halfback finds that McAleese, Whiteside and Ridge (in white) are up on the defensive plays, as they stop him from a first down. 136 PEEPS BITE THE BEARS . . .

Slightly less than a winning season was the record of the 1959 Blue Streak cagers. Com- ing up against teams of greater height and more experience, several upsets resulted, how- ever, from the dead-eye shooting of John Calandros and the steady playing of Walt Anderson. On home court, the Blue Streaks gave a spine-tingling account of themselves in the VES contest. With two overtimes, the resultant AMA victory came when Don Tabor tapped the bucket for the two points to give AMA the game, 39-38. As unusual as Wrong-way Corrigan’s flight to Ireland was Keene Byrd's two point basket for Randolph-Macon in the second Blue Streak encounter with RMA. In one of the tightest games of the year, Byrd stole the ball on RMAs end of the court. Evading RMA‘s man, Byrd turned, fired, and sank two points for RMA! Final score, 62-60, RMA‘s favor. FREE RIDE . . . AMA’s Houff rides Miller-man No. 12, straining for one of the two point bucket shots which gave AMA an 85-33 victory over Miller. USE THE LEFT HAND, MAN ... Walt Anderson makes a_ left-handed lay-up shot with his right hand, scoring two needed points to defeat VES, 39-38. Standout shots this year were John Calan- dros, Walt Anderson, Ken Coyner and Don Tabor, all of whom ended the season with double-figure averages. Reversing last year’s 10 wins, 6 losses, AMA's hardwood Blue Streaks pulled through with one of the two best records in the past six years. 138 with Anderson and Coyner as spark plugs.

Shattered were the fencers’ hopes for a victorious season when two de- feats—one to the Naval Academy and the other to the University of North Carolina—allowed only a break-even season. Lacking experience, and with only five lettermen returning, the fencers could compete only with college teams. Against heavily favored VMI, the Fencer-streaks slashed to a 16-11 vic- tory and then in a return match, were winning by 11-7 when the meet was called. Outstanding were McGrath, epee, Gill, epee, Amendola, foil, and Rod- riguez, foil. Highlight of the Naval Academy meet was the two victory foil feat by Towe, who had been lost to the team by an early season injury. Prognostication for ‘60—more let- termen returning, and better season with an electric foil which Coach Hoover has purchased for the team. “KEEP YOUR ARM UP, UP!” . . .

Nunez, Leonard, Mayne, Major Stark and Bob Siman watch the mat closely dur- ing the 28-28 tie with Covington. Progress was definite for the wrestling team in ‘59, which made a record of two wins, two ties and seven defeats. Whitewashed in the opening meet, the Streak grapplers fought back the following week to smother the U. Va. fresh- man team. Undefeated in ten matches was Ralph Leonard. Coulon, co-captain of the team, won five, lost one, and tied one. Blankenship, in his first at- tempt at the sport, chalked up a 7-4 victory record. Johnson with a 4-1 and Maupin with a 6-1 record were the stand-outs of the year. Facing Culpeper for the sea- son’s finale, the most evenly matched meet of the year saw the Streaks lose by the nar- row margin of 20-24. FIVE YEAR STAR . . . Team captain Bill McVey is caught deep in thought before the Woodberry meet, which was a surprise showing for AMA. In ‘58, the score was 8-37 and this year, 13-31, both in WF’s favor. and Leonard goes undefeated in heavyweight class.

Having to live up to the record of the ‘58 team—2nd Army champs for the third time in four con- secutive years, State Champs for the fourth year in a row—appeared beyond reach. Hard work, much smoke and fire, and prac- tice, practice, practice gave the ‘59 Riflemen an above average season. : Placing second in the annual VPI Invita- tional Tourney, AMA’s Riflemen then out-fired three other military prep school teams at the Fishburne Invitational to recapture the State Championship title. Sharpshooting Streaks ... Recently notified by the U. S. 2nd Army Rifle officials that AMA had placed in the top three teams in the area, firing commenced to see if AMA could capture the National Cham- pionship title again. Sgt. Joseph Komisar whipped his unprac- ticed group into a winning unit. Firing 934 in the William Randolph Hearst Trophy tourney, the Rifle Streaks went on to fire 2753 in the 2nd U. S. Army match. This is the score that gave them a crack at the National title. Gold medal winners in ‘58, Rodger Morris and Bill Burrell consistently led the AMA team and topped all opponents for high score honors.

Brought before the officers of the Student Body, the ac- cused presents his case to vice president Rodger Morris, president Pete Kelley, and secre- tary Rocky Snell. In honor offenses, the officers of the Student Body are also the officers of the Honor Court. TRACKDOWN!... by Student Body Officers and Discipline and honor are the key words to any well-run military school. Under Augusta's ROTC system, the officers of the Student Body are entrusted with hearing cases, making recommendations, and constantly attempting to have a well-disciplined corps. Any serious violations of conduct, not of honor, comes under the domain of these eight men, selected by the Principal because of their superior performance of duty. Their recom- mendations go to the Academic Board and Col. Roller for approval. DEBATE .. . Frequently, the debates after a trial last longer than the of- ficial hearing! Senior representative Dave Conrad, Spanish representative Carlos Giammaria, sergeants at arms Walt Anderson and Corky Ridge, and treasurer Zeke Zehmer discuss the merits of the accused's case. 160 Honor Committee Together with the officers of the Student Body, the officers of the classes comprise AMA’s Honor Committee. Cases are heard, with a faculty officer present to see that the accused has a fair trial, and a defending law- yer who aids the cadet. If found not guilty, the cadet’s name and the action is never published. If found guilty, the case is heard by the Academic Board and reviewed by the Principal. Every effort is made to see that the innocent are protected, and that the guilty are given a fair trial. | } ? TOO INVOLVED ... that’s what secretary of the Third Year Men, George Holt, seems to feel about the current case. Vice presi- dent Jim Towe and president Sonny Hurst check previous case findings. LISTENING SERIOUSLY When a man’s honor is at stake, concentration is called for. Second Year secretary Bob Battenhouse, president John Holder and vice president Bill Bowen listen carefully before casting their votes. 161 “| STILL SAY evidence does not prove his guilt!’ . . . Bob Durst, secretary of the Fourth Year Men, makes his point to presi- dent Bill McVey, and vice presi- dent Steve Durst. It’s an un- usual event when brothers are on the Honor Committee!

Pete Kelley, Rocky Snell, Rodger Morris, Zeke Zehmer, Jim Weaver, Elliott Ridge and Carlos Giammaria made the plans which insured success for Polio and the Record Hop. No honor at Augusta can mean any more than a nomination to Ad Astra Per Aspera fra- ternity. Founded by Col. Chas. S. Roller, Jr., in 1925, each year the old members of the faculty and the cadet members vote for the ten men who will be initiated during Final exercises. Faculty members sharing this honor with the cadets are Col. J. C. McCrum, Jr., Col. H. D. Deane, Col. H. B. McCrum, Major P. V. Hoover, Major E. W. Parkins, Major C. E. Savedge, Major F. M.

M. C. A. With a full program and a “cause”, every Cadet enters into the spirit. Major project of the year is the Christmas gift to the Lynchburg Orphanage of Christmas dinner. This year, ov er $500 was given by the generous corps. Singing during the collection, just after Col. Roller’s speech, was the Senior Glee Club: Lloyd Eastlack, John Ulrich, Sonny Crocket, John Battle, Jim Shank, Vic Herwick and Max Lacy sing heartily. ADDED OFFICERS FOR A LARGER CORPS...

Sponsored by Col. Chas. S. Roller, Jr., the Senior Ciceronian Society meets week- ly. This gives a number of cadets the chance to debate, declaim, or to read selections. Under the direction of Capt. Hanson, Major Lucus and Mrs. Davis, the Junior Society holds separate meetings, except at Finals, when there is a joint celebration.

Carlos Perez enlivened each issue of the ‘’Bayonet’’ with his cartoons and drawings. Lloyd Eastlack, copy editor and proofreader, checks an earlier issue to keep down the errors in future editions. Controversy! that’s what the “Bayonet’’ frequently stirred up comment. Editorials by Jon Davis and Dave Dillard, both new cadets, were sharply debated, pro and con. Owing some of its success to the RECALL, the “Bayonet” found that Hal Dillon’s pictures could serve them very well. 171 rejoins the press associations and wins honors! Well covered were all events during the year. What's more, the ‘‘Bayonet’’ began to anticipate news, to editorialize less in news articles and to cover every sports event. With the enlarged school, the ‘Bayonet’ enlarged, too. Each edition had six pages, instead of the usual four. Mike Villarroel, Spanish editor, contributed additional articles and helped with many phases of newspaper work. BETTER DEPOSIT THAT .. .
