Luis Iglesias stands at parade rest in Baltimore’s Friendship Air- port waiting for the celebrities to arrive for President Nixon’s inaugural ceremonies. ANGEL FOR A NIGHT.

Hipsters of 1972 were in for a series of jolts. Jesus Christ and Company pointed to ONE WAY for 1973. Square? Squares? Returning students were somewhat thrown for a loss of words when the highs in ’73 involved acquisition of a spirit stick, roller skating, skiing, smashing a truck, heating the gym with athletic action during the weekend. Not even a vocal minority, solidly for McGovern, could dent the silent majority of squares for Nixon. Square? Having fun? Supporting a — Crippled Children’s Home, looking « . inward. It might sound square, but we = 1G it was the year of sharing, of having just old fashioned square fun. SPIRIT STICK MANIA captures John Morris, Lee Ramsey, Gary McGinness, and Steve Brodsky. Loudest cheers of all came from ‘’F’’ Company men when they were announced as winners. Theme—3 O Ghosts in the night spread sheets, tin cans, erected signs, all proclaiming that ““A’’ was best, or that ‘’C” was the number one company. Band spurned all taunts, claiming that spirit came from within, not from externals. The “Goof” stick or the silver citation (Herb Maher’s invention) caught on. Squareness was not considered. Having fun, hanging together was. “There can be civilian clothes’’ — worn in the afternoons, during free time. Suddenly from behind lockers, in footlockers, from Shipplett’s, jeans, boots, even blue and gray “high heels’’ appeared. As the year wore on, the newness wore off. Even the spirit stick and the silver citation evolved into the commonplace. Roller skating freaks took over with Col. John Dekle’s busing of more than 70 students at a time to just let off steam and have fun. To the majority, nothin was square. It was just a matter of who did the U evaluating of the term. ns Uu ei. re RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of a rally for President Nixon, Wayne Vincent, a vocal McGovernite, prepares the Band for a number for Vice-President Agnew.

Brain- child of Major Charles Dillow, a whole platoon of ten, returned for painting chores. Work? In summer? That seemed to be the story for most of the cadets. Dish- washing gave Chuck Knapp’s hands a roughness that not even Palmolive could restore to sunny pink. YMCA work, with a tough camp life, and a bit of the Jesus movement turned Herb Maher on. Glamour work seemed to have been Joe Garry’s lot — a job in the Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra- tion — conjured up visions of a desk, top secret work. Close questioning brought the answer. The job was in the print shop. Pleasure on the golf links enveloped Carl Kellogg, even though he was a cad- dy. Filling in with work at a hardware store helped increase his bank account. Night club work may sound glamor- ous, but for Dave Saslaw, his job in his father’s club entailed washing glasses. It was not all fun for him. Flying home to Spain with Carlos Per- ez, Mike Sisak talked Mr. Perez into a O 8s8—Summer job for him. Carlos managed to avoid any labor. His kicks came in showing Mike the tough spots in Madrid. Shortorder cooks Paul Terko and Lar- ty Nicholson detested the smell of food by the end of summer. Potato picking delighted Bob Mallett, since he was working for his girl friend’s father. Dave Zook also ended up as a farmer, supplying his family with nearly all of the food on their table. Truck driving served to fatten Tom Del Valle’s financial structure. He worked for a catering service serving Miami's International Airport. Spencer Griffin added more chrome to his car with his loot from Burlington Industries. Happiest man in the corps was Steve Gruhn. First came a trip out West where he fell in love with Montana and Wyo- ming. Then came a summer journalism workshop at Ball State University and that was capped by a true love affair with an editor from Crown Point, Indiana. Five summer workshop men at Ball State stored up information and each found a chick. All paid for their work- shop out of their own funds. Dwight Nitz even added a Minolta SRT to his possessions. Workshop fever also spread out. Hot Richmond and VCU offered Joe Kennedy the newspaper courses he wanted. Preparing to come back to AMA, one happy cadet sped along the highways on his new bike. A mysterious accident led to a coma for Ron Shobe — one which lasted for almost three months. Trips by Col. Paul Hoover, Carl Kellogg, Andy Bell, and Major and Mrs. Charles Dillow seemed to help pull him back into a fight for his return to normalcy. Just as summer was ending, Herb Maher, Bob Mallett, Bruce Crum, Bill Sturgis, Carlos Perez, Andy Bell, Corey Koenig, Lee Ramsey, Bob Missman, and Lowell Galumbeck returned for a paint session. MIXING IT UP, Major Charles Dillow receives advice from Corey Koenig and Bob Missman. Later in the year when new beds arrived, the volunteers wondered — ‘‘Was it worth it?” oe tag Ses Se ae a bi, MAKING A GAME OF IT, Bill Sturgis lugs more of the magic green paint up to second stoop for acomplete overhaul of all beds and lockers. Round the clock work was fun. NEVER TOO YOUNG TO LEARN. Picking up ideas from Sue Ellis, Chuck Knapp, Bill Creekmore, and Steven Gruhn are Mr. John Hudnall and Ms. Nancy Green during the Ball State workshop. Summer—9 O MILITARY BEARING APPARENT, Bruce Crum receives his company guidon for later pre- sentation to Andy Wilks. Herb Maher moves on to present the next guidon to Lee Ramsey. Fired up for a new season, football players returned to find beds and lockers gleaming with fresh green paint. Indus- trious officers, and a few lesser souls (but just as hard working) had finished the job in every room just prior to open- ing of school. News that a catering service had taken over surprised the old cadets, and the ini- tial reaction was favorable. Some com- plained about quantity (preferring huge gobs of ‘‘tire patches’ of former years to better food in smaller quantities), but quality was not questioned. Gone was the apathy of ‘72. Almost single-handed Herb Maher, battalion commander, leader of the Jesus move- ment, infused the corps with a new spir- it. Posters proclaimed the feeling — one way, anti-litter, join in. A food commit- tee, a bi-weekly meeting with the admin- istration, real give-and-take lent an air of ease to the opening. O 10 — September COOK-OUT SPECIALIST Col. John Dekle flips hot dogs on one of the hibachis he loaned for the first picnic. This treat was reserved for new men and officers. The corps’ mood just seemed to have shifted. World events, pollution, debate over the end of Viet Nam involvement, the Presidential campaign, nothing seemed to stir interest or to motivate ac- tion. ‘We're just eager to be a group” was what one student stated. Week by week a piece of wood gener- ated the action — the Spirit Stick. Never having appeared before, it created a wealth of nighttime action. Sheets, deco- rated with all manner of slogans — ‘‘F salutes the losers; C claims it’s best, but A knows it is” — deprived some of sleep in the name of fun. An all AMA team on the football field generated enthusiasm. Yells were so loud that spectators believed AMA was winning. THIS IS MILITARY? Bob Missman grimaces as he realizes that Dave Adams, Keith Sterling, and Tom Price don’t bear up to Charlie Creekmore’s neat look. SETTLED IN, Jim Yancey puts finish- ing touches on his shoes for the first formal inspection of the year. That gloss develops rapidly with Jim's spin. HECTIC ARRIVAL.

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT brims over from tiny Ty Harrison in a near touchdown run from a Hargrave man. Ty’s yells and the corps’ helps net the Blue Streaks a win 21-6. Summer weather kept spirits up dur- ing October. The newness of wearing civilian clothes during free moments lin- gered; new found freedom evoked favor- able comments from old and new cadets alike. Ever so often an old cadet stretched the informality to include dating on Sunday afternoons, but the squelch was on — no civies allowed in front of bar- racks on Sunday afternoons. Girls appeared in droves from Fairfax Hall on the first weekend for an informal dance. Instant love resulted for Carlos Perez, Paul Del Castillo, Bill Creekmore, and John Pisarski. Only a few lasted, but the impact had been there for the corps. “It was a great dance — so many girls were here, and they didn’t act stuck up” — the comment came jointly from Herb Maher and Steve Gruhn. Mysterious sounds after taps failed to create problems. It was a phalanx of i ae 4 ge h ‘, night people putting up signs, spirited themselves, their feelings were that the egging on of the football team and the soccer team would create spirit in every member of the corps. Two football wins and a tie lent an air of validity — spirit and enthusiasm create more of the same. ‘Rank means a lot around here. I should know! I don’t like giving rank out to new cadets so early in the year.’ One old cadet reacted violently when new cadets attained rank in a record five weeks. Dan Lenhard, Jim Jenkins, Ted Leach, Lester Lawter, and Dave Iacone shot all the way up the ladder to PFC. It wasn't a leap, but it created desire from others for alike step. Long known for a traditional approach to Veterans’ Day, Augusta celebrated ICE CREAM? Once upon a time, cold winds did hit AMA. That didn’t stop Herb Maher and Spencer Griffin from wearing white ducks. That Sunday parade is remembered. both occasions — the October event and later, the November 11th date. Impressive massing of the colors in the Staunton city stadium followed a march through the streets of the city. Colors and bands from eight schools joined forces for a musical and military salute to Veterans. Unfortunately, the main participants became the chief spec- tators — only a handful of loyal Staun- tonians appeared for the tribute. ‘Superstar’, ‘Sugar’ and ‘‘Dude’”’ (which was a dud) were on the agenda for yearbook staff members attending the CSPA Fall Conference. The whole crew was happily stunned when the 1972 “‘Recall’’ was named as one of ten “Trendsetters” in the nation. October—13 O CABARET STYLE. Jorge Mena, Mal Livick, Marietta Austin, and Julie Madeiros enjoy informality and all the refreshments during the opening formal. Subdued lighting helped. O 14—Parents Weekend FLAPPING GUIDONS prove that the day of commissioning is breezy. Officers march snappily along to salute the staff and then to receive the brass from sponsors. Joy Ride’ NIPPY TEMPERATURES and brisk winds whip hair- does out of place. Mrs. Evelyn Minunni and Mike and Mrs. G. A. Peifer and Tom wait for the end of the ceremonies and a break. Fish nets are not usual at AMA, but on Saturday afternoon of Parents’ Week- end, nets, strange containers, smells of baked cookies and cakes and Mrs. Betsy Trimble created an aura of perplexity among the parents and the cadets. Steve Hemphill puffed around, running up and down stairways. John Walker, Jorge Mena, Manuel Ayau and spectators from the lower school watched and worked to transform military classrooms into a night club! Greedom to move from the dance to the cabaret for coffee, cokes, and cakes or cookies meant joy to the cadets and their dates. Lighting (black lights, soft indirect lights, and candles) added to the effectiveness of the marine-themed cabaret. Sunday arrived, overcast, misty, chill- ing. Luck remained when three o'clock rolled around and the mist lifted. Spon- sors waited, then walked out on field to pin rank on the new officers for the year. Let-down blues failed to develop. Hal- loween was just around the corner. All-out surges for grades shocked new teachers. Grade period finishes always bring this on, but when parents arrive for the flash finish, both upper and low- er school men put out an extra effort. A higher percentage of men on the Honor Roll and Privilege List meant that more steaks were purchased and more spend- ing money went into cadets’ pockets ... all at the expense of smiling parents. Comments from parents of old cadets reflected what the corps had known all along — it was a happy opening — it was a relaxed atmosphere — it was a highly spirited corps. Early morning risers did not object to an assembly for parents and teachers. Col. John Dekle and Col. Charles Sav- edge informed the audience of the new courses and the changes in the adminis- trative structure. More favorable chatter resulted when Major George Evans opened his Mess Hall for an informal luncheon. Sixth Grade BLOOD DROPS almost appear to mar Bob Missman’s gleaming brass and spotless uniform. Mrs. Virginia Missman struggles with unfamiliar gold pie plates. “DON’T SAY I’M OVER THE HILL!” Mrs. L. John Stewart refuses to let Ben get away with his cracks about aging mothers — and he relents. Monroe Adams __ George Bain Bob Buettner Paul Chapouris Jim Dollenmeyer Eddie French Michael Harmon Jay Harper Howls, creaking boards, yells, cat calls, barking dogs, thunder, lightning and more brought chills to the hearts of lower school men on Halloween night. ‘Haunted House’, a Walt Disney record amplified over and over created goose pimples for the 8-12 year olds. Prior to the Halloween festivities, a mummified Lt. Bruce Smith roamed through Big Barracks. Hardened upper school men were given a start when Lt. Smith crept into room after room. To the rescue came Mrs. Malcolm Liv- ick and Mrs. Besty Trimble and the workers from the ‘‘cabaret’’ scene of the week before. Pressed into service once more were the military classrooms, but this time dark passageways, ‘‘eels”’, ‘‘eye balls’, “worms”, ‘‘spider webs’’, and creatures of the night filled one room. HITS AND MISSES. Ron Hepler, Dave Clifford, Jeff Campbell and Eddie French fail to heed Capt. Ernest James’ pleas for mercy for the victims of their pitches. BLOOD CURDLING in the dark, hunchback Bob Van Lear leers at a group of quaking Davis Hall men. Effective lighting adds to the monster man action and look. A vampire in a coffin, the mummy, Notre Dame’s hunchback, and simple ghouls populated another room. Nervous youngsters were escorted through the chambers of terrors. The background music (?) compounded the atmosphere of Halloween. Giggles were cut off when the mummy stumbled for- ward. One lad, claiming it was only the heat, simply crumbled to the floor. Later Joe Gurtoski admitted that he’d had moments of real doubt! Punch, doughnuts, apples, and can- dies were soothing balms as served by Mrs. Malcolm and Mrs. A. C. Livick. Fun and games included bobbing for apples and pitching wet sponges at barri- caded cadet officers and faculty mem- bers. ‘‘It was a blast’’ — everyone's sentiments. Sixth Grade FAKE FRIGHT. Ty Harrison can’t pretend that he’s terrified of vampire-man. He knows that it’s really Mike Perez. Others fail to realize the resemblance. UP FROM THE COFFIN arises pancaked Gary McGinness. A single spotlight shines on his face, bringing yelps, giggles, and even gulps from his “‘victims.’’ Randy Harris = Mario Jerez Eric Koenig Gary McDaniel Tom Michael Andrew Miller Drew Rankin —_ John Robinson Halloween, Sixth Grade—17 O Seventh Grade VITAL BLOCK ATTEMPT on Ron Slagle’s part just misses the kick Sam Plank gets away in the closing minutes of the Hargrave game.

Chuck Arthur Mike Butera Jeff st Ae Ron Campasano Dave Clifford John Comstock John Garrison Rocky Gooch Ron Hepler John Hogue O 18 — Seventh Grade, Soccer Back and forth the ball bounced, flew, and was kicked. First quarter lethargy bit the dust in the initial encounter against Albemarle when the Blue Streaks got it all together and sneaked by Albemarle for a Maher goal. It came as a result of a penalty kick, but it put 1 point on the boards for AMA. Second quarter action placed the ten- sion on Larry Debnar who stopped three sure shots from the Albemarle men. Suddenly the ball shot out of bounds. Placed for a corner kick, the ball fell within reach of Maher. Carl Kellogg then outjumped three AHS men and headed the ball in for a second tally. Strangely few showed for practices and yet scores suited out for the expected win over Eastern Mennonite. Line-up changes placed inexperienced men in halfback positions. Failing to feed the line, Augusta men allowed EMHS to dominate play. The scoreboard meant a wipe up of 5-0 for the visitors. Outmaneuvering AMA’s fullbacks, HMA placed the ball in the net for a point. In the final quarter Herb Maher tied the game by dribbling the ball through the Tiger defense and kicking the ball into tally territory. Late in the fourth quarter, a penalty was called against AMA for a handball, giving HMS a free penalty kick with only Larry Debnar facing the attack. Swish - HMA had managed to upend the Streaks. Revenge hungry Albemarle thought a jinx was on them when Carl Kellogg booted the ball, hitting the goal post. It deflected onto Rick Uhl’s anxious foot, and into the net. From then on, AHS fired up the attack for a 3-1 win. Home games and corps support didn’t inspire the soccermen. Two more defeats wrapped up the season.

Warming the bench, they dream of what they might be doing out on the field. Soccer—19 O Gloom in August could have meant a disastrous season for Augusta. Informed that 1971's coach had resigned suddenly, Sgt. Joe Josephson was coerced into as- suming the leadership. Faced with few veterans, no “pro” PG’s, and with only 34 men from the ranks, Sgt. Joe gained help from Coach Dave Trimble and Ma- jor Merlyn Wright. “Do It!’ was the battle cry from the late start of early football practice up to the moment of entry onto Clay Bowl for an intra-squad game of Blue versus White. Attracting just as much interest as a varsity game, the corps came out to root for Trimble’s Blues or Wright's Whites. Controlling the ball at first, the White team was stunned with Tom Peifer’s in- terception of a pass on the 50 yard line. Peifer gave the ball to Danny Calabrese A NEAR TRIP doesn’t prevent Bodie Cook (21) from recovering and going all the way for a TD. Al Collins (23), Mal Livick (80) Bill Hammond (63) and Ed Dixon (40) protect Bodie. O 20— Football and later threw out to Chris Bowman for short yards. Peifer then belted a pass to Mal Livick at the 25. Al Collins evaded the Whites and carried to the one yard line. The old quarterback sneak came in handy for Tom Peifer who scored for the Blues. Confident then, the Blues called for a Calabrese carry for the two point tally. From then on, it was defense against offense. Twice the Whites had chances to score, but one was spoiled by an inter- ception and later by a goal line stand. But the Blues had won 8-0. When the Orangemen arrived from Woodberry Forest, the Streaks greeted them with plays that never went right. Taking advantage of the nervous plays, Woodberry scored early in the game and added two for aconversion. Just before the fourth quarter began, the Streaks perked up. A hand-off to Danny Calabrese made the difference. Calabrese streaked 35 yards for a TD. Quarterback Tom Peifer converted with Mal Livick on a pass to tie the score 8-8. The corps went wild. It was the first time since 1962 that WF had not left the field as victors. Hargrave won the toss in the next game, and decided to receive. AMA’s defense took over after a kick by Tom Peifer. Finally, HMA was forced to kick. Lindsay Sharpless unbelievably blocked it and then ran it back for a touchdown. When the second half began, Al Col- lins bulleted a TD pass to Bodie Cook. The play covered a total of 65 yards. A successful conversion and a Bodie Cook 95 yard run placed more points on the boards. Tom Peifer’s final two point run for conversion game the Streaks a 21-0 win. Accepting a quick handoff in the MMA game, Lindsay Sharpless started the 34-6 massacre with a 65 yard run. Bodie Cook scored and then ran 65 yards foraTD.

Neither team was able to penetrate the other team’s 30 yard mark. In the final quarter a Woodberry fumble and an AMA recovery offered hope, but the Orange men tightened and held the Streaks to the 35 yard line. “We just felt the AMA-SMA game was going to have that electricity.” Coach Joe Josephson wasn’t wrong. Alert Lindsay Sharpless blocked an SMA kick early in the first quarter and instead of dancing around with the ball, aimed and succeeded in reaching the endzone. Pat failed, and SMA waited for the second quarter to score. Turna- round gave the Hilltoppers the ball again, but Tom Price intercepted a pass and ran 55 yards for the TD. Reaching for a Tom Peifer pass in the third quar- ter, Bodie Cook almost glued the ball into his hands and raced to s core. Conversion was successful for a 20-7 win. Football fans and Shriners shivered through four long quarters in the Shrine Bowl game. Strangely enough, everyone throught that AMA was winning from the cheers and yells of the corps, but an 18-0 lead in the first segment almost tied up the game for the Caissons. Interference against the FMS men gain the Streaks a first at the 16. Three plays later Bodie Cook raced around right end for the final nine yards and paydirt. Roaring AMA fans were treated to a final Streak TD with only 17 seconds left. Bodie grabbed a flair pass from Tom Peifer and raced into the endzone. The same pair produced the added two points. Final score FMS 36-14 AMA. BIG SQUEEZE. Bodie Cook finds he can’t go in any direction when Bob Rogers (85) and Bill Lancer (34) break through AMA’s defense. The stop was temporary. SMA is upended 20-7. PAIN IS REAL, but it does not result from a game, but an intensive practice at the start of the season. Lindsay Sharpless discovers what a neck bridge means.

David Rapp delivered the Veterans’ Day address to the corps. Those cadets with hopes were thinking of their relatives who were involved in Viet Nam. Despair flooded those whose relatives were MIA, unknown as to a prognosis. Indifference, but tinged with respect, was the mood of the majority who had no involvement in the Viet Nam war. Bus rides to Harrisonburg preluded a march through the town and then town leave, dear to each cadet’s heart. “That old red truck is no good. Why can’t we have that and make some mon- ey for the Shriners’ Childrens’ Hospital?’’ Herb Maher’s pleas were answered by approval from Col. John Dekle for a car smash. Hammers almost failed to dent the old monster, but win- dows did crack. Guys let off steam, and $110 flowed into the Shrine treasury for added aid to crippled children. Dancing, leaping, shouting, roaring, the corps gave no indication that the Fishburne men were winning. Over and over outsiders came over to the AMA side of the field to praise the spirit and support which the corps was giving to the Blue Streaks. Passersby were certain the AMA was stomping FMS into the oS Laryngitis was common the next ay. Politics rippled the waves among the corps. (But barely). Government classes sponsored a debate in the Big Room be- tween President Nixon-men Chuck Knapp, Steve Gruhn, and Ron Slagle, and pro-McGovernites Carl Kellogg, Wayne Vincent and Ben Stewart. Over- whelmingly pro-Nixon, gave its support MOMENT OF REFLECTION. Col. David Rapp leads the corps in prayer during ceremonies on the 11th of November. Taps follows for AMA's war dead. LACED WITH FACTS the speech by Carl Kellogg goes unheard by a highly partisan corps. Debate in the Big Room turned into a one-sided rally. to Chuck Knapp on every point. Laugh- ter and catcalls greeted Carl Kellogg’s perplexity about the lack of communica- tions between the President and the peo- ple, the Watergate affair, and stamped- ing inflation. That afternoon the faculty voted 24% for McGovern, 75% for Nix- on, with the corps giving 71.4% of its support to Nixon. Putting partisan support aside, Capt. Wayne Vincent led his band down to Richmond for a Republican rally. “’Dix- ie’ so delighted the Richmonders that they gave the AMA men a standing ovation. Thanksgiving break came at the right moment. Winging it to Chicago for NSPA, Chuck Knapp called the windy city ‘‘the greatest city in the USA for a good time.’’ Christmas was a breath away as the cadets returned from leave. November— 25 O NO CHRISTMAS SPREE — just a routine full formal inspection disrupts the surge towards the season. Spencer Griffin inspects Joby White to see if he makes it as Best Private. High school stuff — decorating doors for Christmas! But it was a first for ca- dets. Transforming their doorways into attractive entrances, Steve McAdams and Ron Kaplan vied for top honors with Yogi Hale and Greg Duran. Top winners earned a late breakfast-in-bed. Warm weather may not have added to the Christmas spirit, but the smell of pines and the sight of huge company Christmas trees helped put most of the guys into the scene. Band swept all hon- ors for their tree, lights strung all around their barracks, and for the packages which added to the color of it all. “Don’t forget others!” It was almost a daily cry. Posters urged support of the Lynchburg Orphanage, a yearly project which joined all cadets into the meaning of Christmas. Rehearsals meant less free time for scores of participants in the Christmas program. Each company decided to enter a choral group into a competition. An added feature was the “costume” each group adopted. Greased back hair (a re- turn to the 50s) and white shirts with straight black ties added luster to Uhl’s Fools who gave a rendition of ‘‘Jingle Bells” and then a potpourri of beer com- mercials as an encore. The solmenity of the season came into focus with Herb Maher’s rendition of the Christmas story, with Mrs. Merlyn Wright assisting with a piano back- ground. Word pictures formed as Col. Herbert Lucus described what it was like on the days when he drives into the Home, his car laden with turkeys and Christmas fixings. Pockets opened; $424 allowed a real meal in Lynchburg.

Heads had to turn to academics — painful prepara- tion for mid-term exams. A rash of infir- mary blues which reared its head was nipped in the bud by the commanding figure of Mrs. Mollie Canevet, ready with the thermometer to see who was trying out for the ‘‘Oscar”’. No one believed that a library club could be brought into existence, but Capt. Harry Davis succeeded. A new newspaper display case, new furniture and Gruhn-donated books swept men into the library to partake of the Davis- laden offerings. Capt. Davis almost ran HEADSTRONG — HEADFIRST William Creekmore tacks up 9 points in his pike lay-out position during the Massanutten meet. The revived Augusta men won 74-15. into a competition scene with his daily movies on subjects ranging from life in Alaska to production of windows. After the exam hiatus sports events mushroomed in basketball, fencing, swimming and riflery. Volunteer attend- ance at sporting events did not show full corps support except in the ‘‘big’’ games. “He thinks a lot like us.” ‘“He’s liberal minded just think, he’s going to drive us to Afton for a ski day.”’ That day did materialize when winter arrived for a brief stay in the area. Disillusioned about the lack of dances, Dave Brown, Luis Marien and the Band men whipped up a sudden success. At- tendance was limited to 15 couples, but the taped music received an ovation. New students appeared on the scene, too, all twelve of them. The winter blahs of '72 failed to appear. ARTISTIC TALENTS of Dave Hamilton and Jim Dollenmeyer spring to life for an “’F’’ company banner proclaiming that F”’ is best in an attempt for the weekly award. QUEASY, BUT DETERMINED to make the first trip up and then down safely, Tom Galifaro and Richard McCaffrey bump into the chair lift up Afton’s gentle slopes. SHAKY, not snow spattered yet, Ward Northrup steadies himself for the first time ever on skis. Afton, close to Walton’s mountain, uses artificial base. HOW DO YOU STOP THESE THINGS?

Hitting the snow with regularity, Val Vintilla seeks help from Major Charles Dillow in digging away the speed-slowing ice flakes. Snow Tumbles ‘Men interested in a snow day at Af- ton will be able to sign up after lunch.” When Col. Charles Savedge made the announcement, there was a stunned re- action. Since arrangements had to be made, the November bombshell pin- pointed January 13 for the big outing. Forty men were bewildered, never be- lieving it would happen. Weather added to the doubt. Warm days followed hot ones. Plans were set, even though Lt. Bruce Smith tried aerial acrobatics in a cave — alone, and managed to break a leg, literally. White flakes began to tumble from above on the 8th of January, not much but enough to make all plans “‘go.’’ The Blue Bomb was loaded even though all traces of snow in the Valley had disap- peared. Afton was aglow with ribbons of white, 90% man-made and 10% natural base. Giggles, laughter, manly kidding in the ski-hut mingled with odors of boots, skies, steaming coffee, and even emo- tions. A few men simply were reluctant to face the white ordeal and the frigid winds. Laced with mountain accents of old Virginia, speech patterns from Ward Northrup couldn’t hide his awe of the gentle slopes. But he was determined. Tom Galifaro and Rich McCaffrey con- quered the slope on the first try. One minor accident, a twisted ankle for Joel Wilks, didn’t dim the fun. ‘“Now I can’t wait til the ski weekend trip’ ... “Wait til I call Mom for more money.” ‘Why can’t we do this every weekend?” Forty men tumbled into bed, happy, tired, and praying that winter weather would cooperate and make the weekend trip a reality. SkiDay—31 O “Bull, there can’t be a swimming team. Guys just won’t support it and no one will give up free time.” That ‘‘truism’’ was shot down. Rising to the surface after a three year time lapse, swimming became a reality when Lt. Bruce Smith stirred barracks ‘‘rats”’ into polywogs. Nervous when facing a challenge from the mermen and women of Massanutten, from the first gun, the AMA men began to rack up awards. Augusta swept a first in every event, except in the 400 year freestyle. Music to the ears — 74-15. Diving brothers, the Creekmores, salved the wounds of a defeat at the O 32—Swimming hands of SMA. Final lap tension poured adrenalin into Joe Garry's push for a first place win in the 50 yard free. Massanutten men and women were bitter over the first meet’s score. Score- wise, the Colonels made a spectacular comeback, but after Lt. Bruce Smith saw his team place 48 points on the board, the rest of the swimming put AMA on an ‘unofficial’ status. “Third in the State meet? I don’t be- lieve it.’’ Bill and Charlie Creekmore earned gold and silver medals in diving, and Joe Garry earned four ribbons. Chris Vetick and Manny Ayau added a ribbon each. FRONT FLIP AND LAYOUT.

The tension in that game was nothing compared with the explosion during the second set. Facing SMA on their own court, the Streaks pressured the Hilltoppers. Panic seized both sets of fans with a perfect Jim Layne shot which tied the game just as the clock ran out. Even from the beginning of the fourth quarter, the fans knew a thriller was in the offing. Jim Layne and Ron Slagle kept the basket hot, edging SMA 55-52. SMA refused to go down, as they hit four in a row. The rivals traded baskets until SMA pulled up by two. Down to the count, SMA pumped in two, Layne added a free shot, and Thompson pumped in two more. AMA needed one point — SMA earned a foul, then Thompson added two — 73-74. Varsity Basketball—37 O Clashes with Massanutten always bring out the fighting spirit at AMA. Halted with a 44-36 deposit in the first half, the Streaks appointed Joe Thomp- son as custodian in the third quarter, Eager to keep the scoring going, Thomp- son visited the basket for six field goals and then in the fourth, pumped in four. Joe Thompson’s rampage earned him 32 points on the boards and a AMA win of 78-60 over Massanutten. Controlling the ball against RMA, the Streaks classified it as a ‘‘drub’’ game. ‘Even I played,” exclaimed Carl Kellogg. “We had expected more, and when we BRIDGING THE GAP, Col.

Three outstanding outside shooters for Fork Union found themselves boxed in by Hardy Hunter and Joe Thompson. Metting on the FUMA home court, the Streaks ended up without substituting during the entire game. Ron Slagle’s six points in a row from the same vantage point gave the Fort Defiance men a 78-67 victory. Taunted by Madison’s earlier win, the Streaks played another see-saw game, leading at the halftime. Steady shooting MUSCLES STRAINING, Tom Price looks for support as he attempts to add to the score, a tight 16-16 at the moment.

It was a case of knowing that the tournament was upcoming, and that Ron Slagle had been lost to the team.’’ Joe Thompson, however, went on to dump in for 39 in the 84-70 loss. Nerves were taut in the first round of the League Tournament, but the Streaks led in every quarter against Hargrave. The 73-66 victory pitted them against SMA in the next round.

Abnormal weather, desire but not money, and then, the bit that almost meant disaster; Canaan Valley couldn't take AMA on the weekend of January 26-27. Suddenly, it all came together. Col. John Dekle, Col. Charles Savedge, and Major Charles Dillow agreed that a time should be set aside. Canaan Valley oked a Monday date to start the period. _ Classes were left behind as a caravan headed for what looked like a snowless ski trip. Looming ahead, suddenly, there were white deposits in the high Canaan reaches. That morning a six inch snow had deposited itself. Store purchases meant beans, hot dogs, and student-cooked meals.

Sun dispelled the chill winds. furnished the ‘feel’ of the first night. Twenty one students split two cabins, and the faculty had their own. Reveille was not necessary. Bacon and egg odors wafted among the cabins. Skiers were up and out, trying to get Col. Savedge and Lt. Bruce Smith on their feet and out to the slopes. Artificial snow machines had been working all night to add to the natural cover. Trees were encased in white ghost forms. Practically everyone selected short skis. Charlie Creekmore was bemoaning his lack of know-how; yet within an hour, he was riding the chairlift up to the highest peak. The day was chilly and bright. For the waitresses in the lodge, it seemed that the AMA crew spent as much time on cheese grills as on the slopes. COLD CONFUSION siezes Charlie Creekmore, out for his first time ever on snow skis.

O 44—Talent Show, Sophomores It was NOT exactly Carnegie Hall, but i was AMA’s way to keep the blahs at ay. Planning started three months in ad- vance. Posters at Stuart Hall and Fairfax invited them to add to the fun. Steve Gruhn wore expressions varying from futility to joy, from absolute depression to sheer despair. Groups all wanted to practice at once. Stuart Hall offered three groups, Fairfax two. Complexities of trying to change the tempo from slow to fast began to show its effect on everyone. Show-doctor Mrs. David Trimble rushed in to assist. Right on hand was also Mrs. Merlyn Wright — with her piano for musical reinforcement. SOUL, Hardy Hunter style. Solo for one part, duo (with Smokey Joe Thompson for the main part), Hardy sang ‘‘T want to go out in the rain.” CLASH SYMBOL. Bands were not in evidence at the Talent Show, but drums stood out. Jeff Irish solos, then becomes part of an act, and tears the Big Room down. Two days before the show, the fourth annual Talent Show, Gruhn and compa- ny were sure it would never go. But when angel Herb Maher descended from above, the audience responded warmly, and the show was off to an audience packed with students, girls from the Halls, and even parents. Parts were pure slapstick (pies in faces, comics running across the stage). Others were musical. ‘‘Michele’’ and “By the time I get to Phoenix’’ evoked rounds of applause when Tom Kennedy sang without need of a mike. Corn, sheer corn, came from the Kel- logg’s Corn Flakes crew, manned by Carl Kellogg. Again his berry medley delight- ed the cadets in the audience. Always the hit of the night, the “fash- ion’ show displayed the talents of Max- (ine) Rodriguez, Marcellino (Marie) Her- nandez, and Jeff (Janie) Clark. The legs gave it all away. Mr. Gerald Gruhn re- ceived a kiss from each of the lovelies — much to the astonishment of Mrs. Gruhn. Winners were the Cornflakes, Tom Kennedy, and the Latinos’ satire of the Commandant’s office Lack of winter prevented a Carnival, and a Stuart hall dance provoked an exodus for the action in Staunton.

Carlos Perez wobbles when he takes over to carve genuine turkeys. Family style turkey caused Larry Malnati to wonder about portions. ‘When are we going to have another ski trip?’’ It was a question that the weather man answered — there would be no more. Snow simply failed to material- ize. Colonel John Dekle found the answer. Roller skates! A new rink had just opened in Staunton and for a full bus load (40 students) the manager was eager to open for AMA students. Ever so often there were even two bus loads, supple- mented with girls from Stuart Hall. Fresh roast turkey aromas filled the Mess Hall. Eyes popped when each table was decorated with a hugh browned fowl, (and it was one meal that no one called foul).

It was deemed a hugh success by those who were there — just about every man in the corps. Beset with losses, the JV basketball team challenged the faculty to a game. Col. Mal Livick, Capt. Mike Ridge, Col. Dave Rapp, Maj. Merlyn Wright, Sgt. Joe Josephson, Capt. John Hall, Lt. Max Hutton, and Maj. Jim Hogg sweated, led for a while, but were upended by the young basketballers 28-32. Roller Rifle men tripped down to Nor- folk for an appearance at Scope, to Hampton for the scene at the Coliseum. Hampton was the favorite — Mr. and ROWDY ROLLERS, Bill Sturgis and Jorge Cordon take Jennie Floyd and Karen Berger for a whirl around the rink. Stuart Hall joined AMA for the fun on roller skates. Mrs. Seymour Wilks provided a real spread for the visitors who performed during the Squire’s halftime. Youth took over the Old Stone Pres- byterian Church for a service in late Feb- ruary. Herb Maher had the congregation laughing, smiling, and deep in thought as he revealed his depth of feeling about Jesus and his teachings. Mal Livick, Charlie Livick, John Hash, Tom Hash, and members of the choir participated. “We've nothing to worry about,” ex- claimed Mrs. Louise Holvey. ‘’These young people know what religion really 1S.

New- comers to fencing raced down to Hoover Hall each afternoon as early as October, ready to practice with repetition basic moves. Reflexes quickened, muscles developed, novices became apprentices, even giving old masters tight bouts. Defeated only once in 1972, the Hoo- ver men were determined that they would avenge their only loss. It meant a trek to Mary Baldwin College. Shaky hands encountered experienced foils women. A 50 50 win-loss to the women knocked down some egos, inflated others in the non-meet. Cuts and scrapes were well known to every man by the time came in January for the first match against an unbeaten Frostburg. And AMA was the last oppo- nent for the “Snow” town men. Tense matches resulted all through the afternoon with the score swaying back and forth. Finally only one bout was left with the score tied at 13 all. Tom Mc- Cabe, knowing that the match rested on his shoulders, battled the last man from Frostburg in epee. Point after point Tom scored. With a final lunge the bout end- ed. McCabe was mobbed by gleeful fen- cers and an elated coach. “There will be weekend break be- tween league matches,” screamed Col. Paul Hoover and so twelve men headed for VMI ready for learning and work. Sabre men picked up pointers and points with a result tying 15-12 win over the Keydets of Lexington. Sunday matches are not usual. A nerv- ous team prayed its way through church and then faced the tri-Weapons Club of Baltimore on AMA grounds. Over-con- fident, the Streaks went down, then came the final two matches at the 12-13 tally. Dave Zook and Tom McCabe ig- nored the pressure. Wins by both men sent hopes soaring again. Next and last on the agenda was a double-header. Mercersburg, the winner in ‘72, bowed to Augusta by 18-9. Mur- ray Woods, a new team in the league, then stepped to the firing line. Their downfall was swift, but both Herb Mah- er and Lee Ramsey suffered defeats. The season was over — with AMA undefeated.

It became impossible to begin spring sports practices (except for Hoo- ver teams) and golf was later kicked out as asport. Roller skating really came in to its own. Every week Col. John Dekle steered the Blue Bomb over to Staunton’s latest rink. Scores of guys, forty minimum, each week made the action on wheels.

Actually colder weather followed the break than that which had preceded it. Major Ed Hart kept griping. He knew that he’d never be able to get his team in shape for the Woodberry opener. Band came through again with a dance, praised by the small crowd which attended. ‘Since the Cotillion Club was doing nothing about a social life, we de- cided to take over,” stated underground social leader Dave Brown.

When the call came for a general refurbishing of the roads in the area, Spencer Griffin, Carl Kellogg, Dan Len- hard, John Walker, Ben Stewart, Ed Cabo, Alex Buck, Irbye King, Gary McGinness, and Ward Northrup formed a vanguard of concerned cadets. Ton- nage was not the question, but four army truckloads in four miles proved that the average citizen is still a litterbug. It was almost that bad around the campus, but on that project, everyone participated, except for teachers who ended up playing bridge. Whitewash WAS used at AMA to cover fences, walkways, and posts in front of barracks. April showers turned into a preview of what was happening along the Missis- sippi — near flood conditions, days of glumness, and a front field of pure mud. Athletic events were postponed day after QO 54— April day as the ground became more saturated. Everyone was just about perfect for AGl-annual government inspection. Then the weather freaked out — show- ers, snow (on the 10th of April!), bits of sun, and tornado-like winds. Caps flew away as understanding inspectors gave the eye to each cadet. A no-parade call was issued when the combination of mud on the field and north winds settled that it would be torture for everyone. Two dances and a concert turned on a number of the cadets. The first was a formal at Stuart Hall and then another of the Band-backed informals. High point of the month for some 12 men who made it over to,the University of Virginia was a James Taylor concert. Ten guys signed up for a night of life aboard a ship at NOB, Norfolk while the library club toured Washington and then New Market’s book bindery. Sports added to the congestion of the month.

That came later with a trip up to the coffee house for refereshments. Tremors of eagerness and anticipation ran riot through the corps as April wan- dered on. It would be an unusual Easter — Spring formal, Parents’ Weekend, and Easter all arrived at the same time. Announcements had been made by the score that there would be NO Pin-Up Queen unless there were sufficient en- tries. Eight men submitted the required materials, way below the minimum and so a tradition of 29 years ended. A new dance set had begun — Spring Formal. Decorations of spring colors were all ready for the first event, an assembly when parents heard about the year and about academics. Classroom visitation, company, platoon, squad, and individual competition swept the day by rapidly. What really stimulated comment was the performance of the Roller Rifles. ‘I could watch them for hours’’ was one MOMENT OF VICTORY flushes faces with joy. Bob Missman, as commander of the best company ‘‘B’’ and Tom Del Valle as platoon leader of the best. Major Merlyn Wright awards honors. comment heard from a guest on the side- lines. Another parent was demanding that the Band play, but the only music was the drumbeat furnished by Andy Bell, Luis Marien and Larry Nicholson. Cadets found themselves excluded from a party ‘for parents only’, given by Col. and Mrs. Malcolm H. Livick at their home ‘White Hall’’. Guests min- gled with faculty members and rehashed the progress of their sons. D im lights and startling black light decorations changed the military depart- ment into a coffee house. Steve Hem- phill, who had helped with the cabaret scene for the fall formal, did an encore. Some parents did miss the Pin-Up fea- ture, asking ‘When is the figure?’” Even old cadets puzzled over the fact that there was something missing. Bugle calls sounded on Sunday for a special parade to honor the winners of drill competition. Bob Missman, Tom Del Valle, Alex Buck, and Chris Vetick walked off with cups and medals. April Parents Weekend—57 O AMA did not have a wrestling or box- ing team, but the last lacrosse game against FUMA made spectators believe that it had a prize ‘’fighting’’ team. Exchanging snide remarks all during the game, Gregg Gillette and his opposi- tion finally met head on when Gregg was clipped. Gillette pushed his man when FUMA’s 41 struck out with his stick. Simultaneously Dave Carter was attack- ing his man on the other side of the field and goalie Tim Emmett deserted his goal stance, grabbed a FUMA man and black- eyed him on the spot. FUMA was smarting from an earlier 1 O 58 — Varsity LaCrosse to 7 defeat at the hands of the Streaks, and the 4-13 drubbing acted as the magic potion for a real rumble. It had been a far different season from past ones. ‘From the first we just didn’t get it together,” theorized Al Collins, co- captain of the team. ‘‘Even when the players were shown what they were doing wrong, they just wouldn’t listen or try to correct their mistakes. What really hurt, of course, was Lindsay Sharpless’ penalty and then his leaving school.’’ Rain, mud, and wet grounds kept prac- tices to a minimum. Lacrosse teams were not used to losing seasons. Facing Woodberry Forest after spring vacation didn’t help. Even though the rivalry is the greatest between the two clubs (Coach Ed Hart and Woodberry’s Gillespie were colleagues in college and both All Americans), AMA was not ready for the encounter. A 2-7 rout was a humbling experience for the Streaks. Confident that they’d would smash the boys of Blue Ridge, the Streaks swept in 7 goals, but their opponents were besting them with their 11. It was a far different team which faced Episcopal High, but the offense for the EHS men pumped in a torrid 11. Unmerciful Coach Dave Rapp put the Streaks through Marine Corps drills after the three defeats. “We're heading up!” PUSHED FROM BEHIND, Mike Minnuni (24) finds it difficult to make a strategic play against the Blue Ridge men. Tight man for man play netted the BR team an 11-7 win. Brothers FACE OFF.

HITTING THE DUST, Alex Taylor finds that Luis Marien and Herb Maher are too much for him in his attempt to score another goal for Woodberry Forest. John and Tom Hash David, Randy, and Danny Iacone Eric and Corey Koenig Charlie and Mal Livick Jay and Greg Merritt O 60-— Varsity Lacrosse Conditioning helped bring on a seem- ing turning point in the first of the two Fork Union encounters. A Herb Maher to Chris Bowman pass, a bounce shot by Bowman, and the Streaks were ahead by 1-0. From the face-off, Herb Maher pounded down field and fired straight on for another goal. The whole team worked the ball around and finally flipped the ball out to Mike Minnuni for another score. A quick-stick into the goal by Al Collins netted another tally. Two more Al Collins scores and a Larry Nicholson goal gave the Streaks a 7-1 win, first of the season. Two losses followed, the first to Blue Ridge, the second to Woodberry, and then came the final game of the season, the famous fight with Fork Union. Right over the goalie’s head soared a Herb Maher bounce shot for a lead off 1-0 for AMA. Maher again went down from the face-off and scored. Five suc- cessful shots by Al Collins helped with the 13-4 win over Fork Union. Season scoring was led by Collins with 13 goals, 6 assists; Maher had 9 and 5, and Bowman, 4. Minnuni, Nicholson, and Garry added 2 each. Emmett was credit with 59 saves; Dixon, with 15 in 1 game. PLAYERS TAKE THE FIELD, shaking hands and eyeing each other in pre-game ceremonies in the Blue Ridge game. Friendships were brief — Blue Ridge swamped AMA 11-7.

Lacrosse BLUE LANGUAGE! “Don’t bother, my friend!’’ Col. Paul Hoover expounds on what NOT to do to Carl Kellogg, Tom White, Bill Hammond, John Tyminski, and Tom Peifer. It works. Brothers Bill and Pablo Morales Ed and Rick Prado Mike and John Sheehy Joel and Andy Wilks Calvin and Richard Woodson SCUFFING THE SCOOP, John Arthur misses out, but Larry Debnar saves the ball for an overhead bounce anda goal against the Woodberry Forest men. “We wanted to knock heads. Sure, no one had experience except for two men, but we were all blood thirsty,” analyzed Larry Debnar, one of JV lacrosse’s three captains. In this case too many chiefs didn’t spoil the outcome. “Shock of all times came when we ini- tiated the season against Woodberry. We had always had trouble and we were worried, but strangely enough, they lacked spirit and drive. We outpowered them.” Scoreless until the fourth quarter, the Woodberry game looked as if it might have to go into an overtime. A face, a pass from Carl Kellogg to Larry Debnar gave Debnar the right shot at the right time. Within 15 seconds WF scored. A six minute overtime produced the action. Rifling a pass to Andy Bell, Larry Debnar paved the way for Bell’s close-in shot. WF was determined and within 25 seconds had done it again. With two minutes left in the OT, Andy Bell came out around and shot a hard goal for an AMA win. With Fork Union having a new team, the Streaks were nervous. What kind of team would it be? A quick goal by Rick McCaffrey in the third quarter put AMA ahead by 1. Fork Union rapidly retaliat- ed. Two more goals assured the Streaks of the win, even though Fork Union scored once more. Hard hitting and 8 more goals humiliated the novice Fork Union team. “We NEVER win on Woodberry ground,’ moaned Col. Paul Hoover. That was NOT the way the team felt, even though the WF men roared onto the field with ‘confidence’. A JV win of 3-1 perked up spirits everywhere at Augusta. An unexpected game opened up against Martinsburg, West Virginia. Unreal — but no one would show the JV streaks to their locker rooms! The field added to the unbelievable situation — it was half the size of a regulation field, and it was all downhill (or up, depending on position). Four times the ball was lost right amidfield in the jungle of unmowed grass. Stick checking and body checking by the MHS men failed to stop the JV men. At the half the score was 3-1 and when the whistle blew, it was AMA 6-4. J.V. Lacrosse—63 O “I’m skipping a class and even getting a letter for doing it. Why bother to win?” That was the expressed sentiment of three members of the baseball team. Cop-out excuses added to the confu- sion. ‘‘There were so many rains, so many days of non-practice that we never got together as a team. And even when it was sunny, the backfield couldn’t drain off all of that water.” Stunned in the opening game when the Hilltoppers of Staunton crossed the homeplate 16 times to their one effort, the Streaks faced Hargrave in a double header. The 13-1 submerging in the opener was deepened with a 15-0 drub- bing in the second game. Reacting to a signal from Coach John Hall, small Bruce Cornett attempted a steal from first. A hit to shortstop and a throw to second spelléd an out, but as Cornett saw the ball coming to second, he slid and flipped the tall second base- man off base. ‘Safe!’ GAME’S OVER! Bodie Cook, outstanding player, refuses to be sorrowed by the final score of the double header at Hargrave, but a shut out was hard to smile about. GROUND OUT. Danny Lenhard chops the ball to second in the first game of the double- header at Hargrave. AMA did end with one run, but the AMA men had 15.

Emerging in the SMA game as the sole winner, Tom upends his 1 man from HMA. Excitement d ied aborning at the start of the tennis season. Two wipe-outs, one by Staunton and the other by Ford Un- ion, portended another dismal season for the netters. Sinewy Tom Price pulled the Streaks on the scoreboards with a win against Hargrave. Price and Felix Montes put a two on the scoreboard for AMA in the second Hargrave game. By that time the tennis team was placed on the same level as the baseball team. Spectators were invisible when the racket men took to the courts. Warming up in the first encounter with Lee High School, the Streaks began to mow their men down. First a win by Marty Davis was followed by a Tom Price victory, an upset loss by Felix Montes was countered by wins from Howard Peterson, Mike Martens, Rick Prado, and the doubles combo of Peter- son and Martens. “We didn’t just win over Massanut- ten. They fought with one another, screamed at each other, and defeated themselves,” explained Marty (Pancake- foot) Davis. ‘It was a breeze.” Beads of sweat rolled off team mem- bers in the Fishburne match when the final doubles decided the winner. The pressure was on Felix Montes and Rick Prado. Right down to the line, score 8-8, the duo smashed two points over and the team was assured of a winning season. PICKING UP A LOW BALL, Howard Peterson bangs the bounce which his man from Massanutten placed on the ball. Howard's return helped his and AMA’s win.

Grass sprouted up every- where with cadets channeling thoughts into a botany. The back hill saw action with nature lovers and sun-ray men vying for space. Stuart Hall with its formal and anoth- er of the underground Cotillion Club’s informals maintained the pace — hectic. Another measure at stopping spring fe- ver was lacrosse fever, but it died almost as rapidly as it had sprung up. Alumni Weekend collided headon with Founders’ Day. Alumni, friends, families and relatives of both graduates and pre- sent cadets flocked to Fort Defiance. The alumni were open-mouthed and open- minded about the ‘‘country-club” like atmosphere (e.g. civilian clothes). Dr. Gamble See, AMA ‘97, now only 94 years old, spoke to the cadets in the mess hall and received a standing ova- tion. Earlier, Col. Malcolm Livick’s speech honoring the founders of Augus- ta, had spoken up and out for the philos- ophies and ideals of those men — and how they had efficacy today. Andy Wilks and Joel beamed as their dad, Seymour, was elected president of the Alumni Association. Exams began to stare everyone in the face. With only two official days allotted for review guys felt the need for some getting their heads together.

Tales of wild men (Jake), killing live chickens, rattlesnakes, 50 mile hikes, capture, interrogation, ‘Jogi’ the bear, and “‘C’’ rations filtered back to AMA long before the troops returned from a real experience. For over a year Major Merlyn Wright and Sgt. Joe Josephson had been work- ing with Company B, 5th Special Forces Group from Fort Bragg, N.C., Major H. B. Sproul II], commander, in setting up a real exercise in George Washington Na- tional Forest. From the 16th through the 23rd of May it became reality. ““ Aggres- sorland’’ men had captured land in “Pineland” and AMA men were assigned roles in defending their country. Air drops, drop zones, how to select set- up mark drop zones, tactics in ambush- es, raids, patrols became second nature to the cadets in the field. Unfortunately not every group met Msgt. Jake Jakavenko, “‘build like a coke bottle’, who vowed to capture Rick Prado. Captured, indeed, was Alex Buck, whom Jake named the ‘Toughest kid I’ve captured in a long time. He cursed and vowed he’d never reveal any secrets, and he didn’t.”’ Tom Galifaro was chased by a bear, although men in his group swear that it was probablv “’Jake’’ on a rampage. Few could talk unimpassionately about the live chicken experience. ‘We had to take a chicken, kill it, clean it, and cook it along with vegetables which were potatoes and carrots.” Max Rodriguez followed the example of his leaders; oth- ers swung the birds. Praise was sincerely given by the Green Beret men. Wayne Vincent, Tom Peifer, Bruce Cornett, Herb Maher, John Tyminski, and Spencer Griffin were cit- ed for their leadership and command. Faculty accompanying the men were Capt. Dave Trimble, Lt. Max Hutton, Capt. Carl Browning, and Lt. Burce Smith with the Military Department men, Major Merlyn Wright, Sgt. Joe Jo- sephson, and Sgt. Donald Barger. EP 7 fa Right between the eyes! It was Finals before anyone had expected it. Only two days of classes remained and it was then senior picnic time. Dismal, gray clouds promised drench- ing weather, but the mist remained above the mountain tops when the seniors ar- rived at Staunton Dam. Steve Gruhn, Carl Kellogg, and Col. Charles Savedge had already been on the spot for three hours, charcoaling steaks, baking pota- toes, and spreading the food out for the always ravenous crew. “Tt was something else. I didn’t believe that I would not be able to eat a whole steak,” moaned Dave Carter, ‘‘but I had to give part away.” Max Rodriguez made up for it with three steaks to his credit. Horseplay found a birthday suited Bob Missman thrown into the freezing stream, a bucket of ice on Carl Kellogg, and a struggling Gregg Gillette. Like the plague exams returned to cast its spell over the corps. On Wednesday FINGER LICKIN’ GOOD are the steaks that the seniors received on their picnic. Carl Kellogg, Dave Zook, and Jeff Clark seem to think so too. O 72-—Senior Picnic of Finals the paper for the Final Ball ar- rived.

Dave Zook took the honors as Best in Mathematics, with Carl Kellogg adding medals for his chest in science, history (DAR medal), and Band.

A near per- fect night kept couples scurrying out for air and back to bake. Midnight, barracks were not quiet. Soft whispers among the guys were heard from darkened rooms, memories of the year, of last year, of the first year at AMA. Sleep was impossible. It was the last night of '73.

A hug, tears, and then came t he call for the march up to the Old Stone Church for Baccalaureate. Graduation was almost anti-climatic. Both of the valedictorians suggested that the country is facing grave problems. Dave Zook suggested that big business take up the challenge of the social pro- grams while Carl Kellogg asked for the same revolutionary spirit to live as there had been in 1776. No one was really surprised when Herb Maher received the Parker Ward — General Roller Loyalty Trophy. And students were gratified when Col. Her- bert Lucus received the award estab- lished in ‘72 in honor of Col. Paul Hoo- ver and Col. Charles Savedge. There was shock when Col. M.H. Liv- ick read off the names of the men who had been voted into Ad Astra Per Aspera Society: Carl Kellogg, Bob Missman, David Zook, Tom DelValle, Dwight Nifz, Mike Minunni, Wayne Childers, Bob Menae, Bob Malle, H. Bill Morales. Taps sounded horrible. The bugler couldn’t control his own emotions. A stunned Bill Creekmore looked at Chuck Knapp and broke down. Herb Maher flooded the blacktop and the close-knit Band almost dissolved their section of the asphalt. Parents had trouble in getting their sons to leave. Goodbyes were repeated soggily. And then quiet began to en- velop Augusta. Slowly the sun began to sink on an empty barracks. What could be as square, as old-fashioned as FTX? Field training exercises? Yet, screams of joy by the vast majority indi- cated that the corps was approaching the unconventional war games with antici- pation. Fun, that’s what it would be. ‘A trip to a book bindery? We’re going to DC to see the Library of Congress?” The newly formed Library Club gave its members the involvement — and the trips — which made it popular. And the big news of t he year was the underground Cotillion Club which arose when the Band was unhappy with the number of dances. Taped music, soft lights, and civvies made them more popular by far than the big ones spon- sored by the official gang. Fifteen men made big noises about working on the ‘‘Recall”’, but when all but six found that WORK was the going word, they decided it was just too square for them. ‘The Bayonet” suffered from the lack of an adviser, but the paper even ran into trouble when it didn’t state facts. And there was always the fun, the problems, the good times which came from living together. Skylab, Watergate, Cambodia, inflation all spilled over into barracks. Square? No, it was sharing. Shared Effort BIRTH SPASMS. Brett Thompson, Joe Kennedy, and Carl Kellogg plot new designs for “The Bayonet”. The senior issue always proves to be different! NOT A RIPPLE of concern was aroused when weather for AGI forced the Roller Rifles to put ona display in the gym for the visiting Army inspectors.

There seems to be little middle of the road opinion. “What we need is to be more involved in our own services — to feel that we are really wor- shipping.”” That happened one Sunday when the Old Stone Church turned the services over to the young people.

All seemed to agree — ‘We've got to be more a part of it.” YOU HAVE GROWN! Mrs. Boyle Grif- fin glances up at Spencer just before the time comes to pin on the rank of second lieutenant at Commissioning Parade. Faculty members were the strongest to react to the staff. For the first time in five years, faculty members with years of service were comparing Herb Maher with the late Parker Ward, the accolade which meant “great job”. Things just seemed to pop with Herb Maher in charge — spirit stick, silver citation, wor- ship room, rock garden, but more than that, cigarette butts just disappeared from the stoops.

Major Ben Harmonextends greetings to the Roller Rifles on display in the gym due to unreal weather on the outside, typical for AGI. If the Roller Rifles didn’t have wheels, they should have. Ap- pearing in Staunton, Harrison- burg, Waynesboro, Mount Jack- son, Richmond, Newport News, Norfolk, and Washington, they topped the year off with a crash trip to Pimlico for the big parade. Trophies and first place hon- ors were mute testimony to the drill tactics of the leader, Com- mander Bob Mallett and the ex- ecutive, Herb Maher. Excitement came in greeting visitors to the inauguration. Pat Boone was the favorite because of his friendliness. Onlookers prefer the silent swinging of rifles and expert drill which Tom DelValle, Man- ny Ayau, Larry Debnar, and Carlos Perez perform in the circle. O 83—Roller Rifles OLD MAN RIVER.

It’s not just coincidental that ‘A’ has won the spirit stick more than any other company. The Joe Garry — led gang led in sports attain- ments, in decorating sheets, supporting events, and in room inspections.

GARRY III Captain Alle i 4 1 — ll “Cafeteria style breakfast and lunch? Has the administration finally flipped out?’ The ques- tions seemed valid as they rever- berated around barracks during Col. John Dekle’s speech in which the corps was informed that after spring break, the corps would be involved in something new — an experiment. Cafeteria style meals lasted beyond the experimental lapse of ten days. Student reaction and faculty reaction, too, was so fa- vorable that the feature was transformed into permanency. But there are always bound to be dissidents. Tl il “T don’t like waiting in those lines.’ ‘‘By the time I get my food, a fourth of the corps is fin- ished.” ‘There never seems to be any order in the mess hall any- more with people coming and going and strolling around.” Where are the good old days? That was when cadets wanted the job of waiting on tables, when the extra money meant enough to guys that there was always a waiting list. Just as the waiting list evaporated; so did the family style meals — except for evenings and Sunday after- noons.

And so, even though the over- whelming majority likes the new system, the question pops up, “Doesn't anyone want to work any more to help parents foot the bill?’”’ “Is everyone so afflu- ent that a reduction in tuition is not needed?” Just what is wrong?

Predictions of more AWOL’s did not materialize, but an easing of tension and higher morale did result. By mid-year some cadets were seen in civvies every free minute that they had. Others confined the display only to afternoon hours. ‘‘I change as much as | can.

AGI inspectors had been unanimous in praise of Bob Missman as the captain. Artistic decor for Christmas door trimmings brought an award to Steve McAdams and Ron Kaplan.

Joe Josephson’s idea of field training and survival, the idea mush- roomed to the point that state- wide TV and newspaper cover- age resulted with the Green Berets were brought in. Daily trips from camp to school kept Maj. Wright on the run. His volunteers became aggressors when he recruited a few “‘stay-at-homes’’ for sudden action. Exulting in the FTX, the corps asked for and then paraded in honor of the three Military Dept. men who had planned the exodus for over a year. Rain did not deter the corps this time.

COLLINS 2nd Lieutenant CARLOS M. PEREZ 2nd Lieutenant Future shock ... the thought of post graduation causes more worry than nuclear warfare. It is the subject of deeper contempla- tion than love. Seniors at AMA debate as se- niors everywhere are if college is really necessary — and if it’s right for them. Ben Stewart, Alex Buck, and Dan Lenhard decided early in the year that the Army was right for them. A few years of maturing would be right. For Joe Garry it was the University of Maryland, for Chuck Knapp, Ball State University, for Carl Kellogg, University of Richmond. Dave Zook debated whether Oberlin, Wittenberg or Ohio State was the place for him. When an ROTC scholarship came his way, the debate was over. It was Ohio State definitely. ‘For the past seven years, col- lege has been shoved down the throats of American seniors. This has produced a surplus of college degree, but jobs for them weren't there. This has left the common labor trades empty. Those are the jobs hurting for personnel. So if someone is in the market for dollars, college is not the answer,” stated Navy- bound Greg Duran. Taking the opposite view was Bruce Crum. “‘It is a necessity. A person who wants to master so- ciety must be superior — e.g. a person must have more than one degree. Mankind is advancing at such a rapid pace that a second- ary education can’t cut it. You MUST have more education.”’ So it goes ... soit goes. 3 COLLEGE NECESSARY = “C’ Co.—93 O “IT believe that this Board must become more concerned with suggestions than in just being an Advisory Board that hears Honor Committee cases,’’ stated Sgt. Joe Josephson in one of the final meet- ings of the year. “Too often in years past, the Honor Committee was merely a board of captains. So we shall have an Officers’ Board composed of each company commander, and staff officers who will met with me, the Commandant, and the Head- master. And we shall have a board composed of faculty and students who will advise and hear Honor Code violation cases,’’ explained Col. John H. Dekle. New telephone hours, more in- formality in dress, and open closed- weekends resulted. The Advisory Board did find that violation hear- ings occupied more time than advi- sory meetings. Chairman of the Advisory Board was Col. Charles E. Savedge with Major Tim Mannasmith, secretary. The Officers’ Board was chaired by the Principal. O 94— Advisory Bd. Ad Astra BARKING OUT ORDERS, Maj.

Ready for Founders’ Day ceremonies, the Band steps off. Spirit is no longer something intangible. Walk over to Band barracks. It almost suffocates you. Walk into anyone’s room. You'll find five or six guys sprawled all over the floor in a variety of positions, playing cards, Monopoly, Risk. Or they will be arguing politics, Jesus, music, sounds. Leave and you may be hit by a frisbee that zooms after your head. Band men spend more time with each other than any other group. So there are more likes and dislikes. The boys in the Band are a unit — in everything. “Bayonet” is almost a monopo- ly; soccer was, with Herb Mah- er, Band mascot, on the field, too. And have they ever looked down on Big Barracks for the “spirit’’ displays. ‘“‘We don’t need that kid stuff. Our spirit is within,’’ proclaimed Wayne Vincent. Even in academics the Band stands out with Carl Kellogg in a tie with Dave Zook as valedicto- rian. And Kellogg also came up with the top average for the upper school for the year. “Over in Big Barracks, you all think of yourselves first as cadets at AMA, and then as a member of a company.

Spasmodic attempts to create a Library Club had always failed. That didn’t deter Capt. Harry Davis from giving it a try. And he succeeded. Faced with hundreds of new volumes, au- dio-visual materials and later with a class, Capt. Davis made use of the men in quick order. Bob Missman tackled the new paint job; Brooke Montague decorated the library with new drapes; and the club toured New Market and the book bindery, Washington and its attractions, and up to Meade for research in a diorama preparation by Jimmy Yancey.

Brownie, Brett Thompson, Taffy, Carlos Perez, Luis Marien, and Paul Del Castillo hear leader Dave Brown’s plans. Big plans for a social year bogged down when the officers of the Co- tillion Club became so active in ev- ery other happening that dances failed to materialize. Of course there was the Opening Formal, but with nothing really planned until the Spring Formal, the outlook was bleak. That’s when a group of guys in Band (sometimes called the Band Company Cotillion Club) conjured up ideas about informals, and in- stantly it was labeled the Under- ground Cotillion Club by everyone. Informality was the big thing with informal clothes making the campus look “‘country-club’. An alumnus visiting on the advent of the last informal of the year gaped and exclaimed “‘It’s not as it was in ‘61, but they look like they love it.’’ Receiving the nod as Final Ball leader, Dave Brown put his Under- ground men to work. Andy Bell, Bill Morales, Chip Fletcher, Rick Schulherr, and Luis Marien had five days for the job. CONGRATULATIONS are extended to Carl Kellogg and Bob Missman as they receive their Ad Astra awards.

At first girls paraded around until the judges selected the Queen. Then came the era of submitting formal, informal photos and write-ups. There was the Dance, church on Sunday, a luncheon, and a parade. When Parents’ Weekend coin- cided with Pin-Up seven years ago, the church and luncheons began to disappear. And then so did the enthusiasm. It wasn’t that the guys didn’t want a dance; they did. It was NOT that they weren’t dating pin-up possibilities. But alto- gether, it seemed to be from a bygone era.

The mystery that was chemistry was not helped with a new text. Students found it just as difficult to do problems, conduct qualitative analysis experiments, and rip off nuclear equations.

Combined with Carl Kellogg, Dave helped instruct the algebra trig men when sines and cosines became too much for the colonel. Project work still drove some men mad, but the visual aids did prove that the trouble in making them opened knowledge for the makers. Proud that the math students outscored the English students on CEEB test scores, Col. Hoover stated that no new approaches were on the scene as long as the current methods were bringing results.

MONITOR of the election debate, Capt. Carl Browning restrains Wayne Vincent and Carl Kellogg from screaming out when Chuck Knapp makes his points for Mr. Nixon. MAP MAN Magior Paul Andrews uses his maps every hour for a more thorough picture of the countries which the students in Latin American Asian history study. Quietly conservative Capt. David Trimble was firmly backed by his department head, Major Paul Andrews. Debates among the faculty were just as prevalent as among the students when politics began to heat up. One of the high points of the year came for Capt. Trimble when he and his wife attended a week-long session of the DAR convention in Washington, DC. ‘“NowI know how much those ladies are doing for our country and what their patriotism has meant to us,” he stated. A tennis, fencing, and soccer buff, Capt. Trimble opened the gym every weekend so that the cadets could use it during their spare moments. Somehow or other he also took care of the laundry situation for the athletic teams. Flipped out over any historical novel, Major Paul Andrews will live in Washington over the summer in order to study further. When he wasn’t hitting the novels, he was off to ahistory meeting, fishing, or taking his books to the members of his revolving library. When Col. Charles Savedge found a pooch wandering aroun Staunton on Veteran’s Day, he had to pick it up, feed it, and try to find a home for “Terri’. Capt. Carl Browning just happened to have been looking for a dog for his children, and the young pup had found a home. “Of course, she rules us”, growled the big, gruff Capt. Browning. Browning had his seventh grade sections trek over to West Virginia to spend a weekend in his cabin in a rustic setting. In class in government, it’s all business. Open-minded, he insisted that all sides be represented. Newly appointed Athletic Director, Major James Hogg also adopted a new dog, a cocker spaniel. ‘She doesn’t realize she’s a dog,” he commented. Conservative, Liberal Debates Prevalent Scheduling all athletic events was a huge chore for Maj. Hogg, who also had one section of Sociology. Farmer Col. David Rapp suggested ‘project’ help for his map men of world geography. It meant a visit to his Weyers Cave farm to help with the chores. ‘‘We didn’t go into physical features, but we did have a good time.” Another part-time history man was Maj. Tim Mannasmith. Economics was his game, naturally. His new electronic calculator was pulled into session on stocks, mortgages, and real estate deals. The West, the depression and current events kept classes in U.S. history lively in Col. Charles Savedge’s sections. The game was to label every- one. Arguments were a bit vocal each and every day.

MAGAZINE ARTICLES furnish John Morris with background material for his paper on ecology. The library's 60 periodicals ranged from technical to frivolous, to everyone's joy. It may have been chaos. Just as school was about to open Col. Glenn Koogler, head of the English depart- ment became ill and had to have an operation. His return had been slated for January, but the doctors insisted on early retirement. Sharing the duties in English were Lt. Robert Moore, Lt. Steven Baird, and Lt. Paul Gunter, who later re- signed in January. Nearby Mrs. Sybil Wright offered her services, and the department stabilized. Capt. Tom Warrington arrived in January to helm the department for second semester. Unit approaches fascinated some men, who liked the idea of mythology, the novel, poetry, and research. Others wanted, and later obtained permission for independent study programs, a first at Augusta. Speech faded from the scence, but was picked up in Mrs. Wright's sections. Journalism became a one semester offering with emphasis on feature writing. It failed to satisfy the seniors who had enrolled.

But he is quiet. ” ““He’s deep and his ideas are really like mine.” ‘’He’s so conservative that I don’t think I can get close to him.” Everyone of the comments concerned the new English department head, Captain Tom Warrington. When he picked up the Ciceronian Literary Society task, the troops got to know him better. Having taught previously at Tidewater Community College and at Randolph Macon Academy, Capt. Warrington was prepared for anything, except the seventh graders which he took on for six days during FTX. He really did chauffeur the guys into town almost daily. Lt. Steven Baird simply could not turn down anyone when a favor was requested. Working on his master’s at Madison, he insisted that each week some of his student utilize the facilities at Madison College. Southern born Mrs. Sybil Wright charmed her students into performance. Playing the piano for the chorus, helping set up a cabaret scene, or cooking for the soccer men she was able to show her warmth fo the students.

This was especially true after the field training exercises had been called off in ‘72. Yearlong strategy brought about the coup which made AMA famous for a while among the local people who lived near George Washington Na- tional Forest. Military was not just a one week picnic in the mountains. There had been full formal inspections, class- room work in communications, mountaineering, field sanitation, first aid, history of military battles, seg- ments of U.S. history, and military courtesy and discipline. Drills tapered off to almost nothing during the wet weather, which almost seemed a nine month’s affair in Fort Defiance. Leader of the men who directed the training was Major Merlyn G. Wright, a former football player, and a man who spread himself out into every ac- tivity at AMA. SOLID COMFORT dissolves into field training for Lt. Max Hutton. Sgt. Joe Mezick carts Lt. Hutton out into the field from some guerrila exercises. FUEL FOR THE BIG MAN. Major Merlyn Wright ignores the soaring costs of meat when it’s the soccer team and Col. Paul Hoover who furnish it for the picnic. In the fall Major Wright was out on the football field, helping Sgt. Joe Jo- sephson with the team. Many nights found him on the stoops, checking study habits, looking at rooms, and simply visiting the guys. A member of the Advisory Board, he had been in- strumental in having military classes spread throughout the day instead of having them confined to only the sixth period. Short, wiry, doglike Sgt. Joe Jo- sephson was just as active as Major Wright. Coach of football, leader of one of the guerrilla gangs, Sgt. Joe endeared himself to his football men when he and his wife arranged for a real banquet in his church in Staun- ton. And it was an Italian meal which did it. Deer hunter Sgt. Don Barger had proof of his prowress, pictures of the kill, posed with Bill Menges for added insurance. Rifle Team coach, Sgt.

Herbert Lucus, a Davidson man. Teaching at AMA for 26 years, Col. Lucus volunteers to test all men in the lower school in each grade level. Sometimes it seems that he can’t get away from work. Special night sessions are held when he feels that his sixth grade students are not up to par. And if a student sits by his desk, it means that there can be no by-play. It will be F work, and more work. t Anyone as tall as Capt. Carl ; Browning would have to have his students in awe of him, too. And that is how the guys felt about the gentle former Army man who had served at AMA in the military department. Casanova Lt. Dale Brown combined cleaning up a vacant lot with his stride towards a masters from Madison. Living two life-styles, Lt. Brown appeared at school with his hair slicked down and almost unnoticed. But away from school, he was a part of the ‘‘now” generation. “He's easy to work with, and he really lectures us about getting too fat, but you know, he’s beginning to look big around the waist,” noted omy ts. f i Ty Harrison.

O 130— Foreign Languages No rolling ‘mailbox’ traveled to Stuart Hall for French classes. Discovery that the experiment in co-ed classes didn’t work indicated that classes at AMA would be the answer. Into the picture stepped Lt. Bob Moore, who divided his time between foreign languages and English classes. Both French and Spanish sections had stress on the culture of the people who speak the languages. WhenLt.Moore returns from France in August, the students in ‘74 can expect more than ever on France’s history. Spanish speaking cadets peopled Spanish classes, forcing Col. Dave Rapp to transpose his sections into a dual approach. Spanish students utilized the time to learn more English — and vice versa. Individual programs for advanced students appealed to those who sought more than the minimum from Spanish.

Harry Davis, a former sergeant-major in the Army and the possessor of an M.A. from Shippensburg, took over as librarian. Taunted into action by Capt. Davis’ gibes, Jim Yancey produced a diorama of Rommel’s African exploits. And then came the formation of the Library Club and with it, trips all over the area. Guess who also knew how to drive a bus — to take guys on trips everywhere? Right! The same Harry Davis, who drove the seniors to Staunton Dam, the Band to Lakeside in Roanoke for a gala party, his group to DC and to New Market, and teams to West Virginia, Blue Ridge, and Lexington. Probably students most appreciated Capt. Davis’ magazine subscriptions of over 60 periodicals. Of course, there were also his free movies of Alaska, glass making, and oil.

Livick turned the reigns over to Col. John Dekle and let him go for the year. Returning to school in mid-November, Col. Livick devoted his time to helping with the alumni affairs, the financial matters of the school, and recruitment of students. That didn’t stop him from con- ducting a basketball clinic for the lower school men, from pitching for the mites, and from appearing on the scene, right, near mid- night. “T need staples.’’ See Mrs. Livick. ‘We need string.”’ Go over to Mrs. Livick’s. Helping keel the Cotillion Club, Mrs. Livick then returned to the art classes as second semester began. Instigator as well, she has interested the alumni in erecting anew infirmary. Naturally, the place where Mrs. Livick shines is in her home. Startled alumni swear “‘She’s more attractive than ever — and she’s perfect hostess.” Two sons attend AMA, one will enter in September, and beautiful Lee has been dating AMA cadets.

Evans did feed the corps. Administration—141 O OUT OF THE INFIRMARY for a few moments, Mrs. Mollie Canevet, school nurse, enjoys a picnic with Capt. Dave Trimble. Faculty, Cadets Discover Staff Concern O 142 — Administration SUBSTITUTE MOTHER, Mrs. Canevet awards the sabre to Carlos Perez at commissioning parade. Madrid was just too far for Mrs. Perez to journey over for the day. Send them to guidance or the infirmary when there is a problem. That seemed to be the philosphy to Major Ed Hart, guidance director. A man’s man, Big Ed coached the lacrosse team, administered tests, concoled guys when there was roommate trouble and acted as a buffer between the students and the faculty or Commandant. Gentle, gruff; mother-like, Army nurse-like. A lot depended on how Mrs. Mollie Canevet was approached. Having seen her son, John, grad- uate from AMA and West Point, Mrs. Canevet watched his wedding in Detroit in April. BO. ALWAYS RAPPING is Major Ed Hart as he tries to solve the many problems brought upon him. Andy Bell and an unknowner find the help they need. MAN AND WIEE now. Mrs. Barbara Smith and Lt. Bruce Smith beam on the anniversary (one month) of their wedding which took place at Luray Caverns. LATE IN THE DAY Ms. Kay Wattier hesitates about having a picture made, but the ever-working Mrs. Emma Hunter stops her bookkeeping for amoment. , LUO STREAKS OF SILVER in his hair mark Col. E. Will Parkins as the money man. ‘ Lt. Max Hutton and Maj. Tim Mannasmith help him dispense school bank money. Staff Never Says No To Anyone That lady with the beautiful clothes who is Col. M. H. Livick and Col. John Dekle’s secretary locks herself in the office and keeps student accounts right up to date. To Col. Dekle and Col. Livick Mrs. Emma Hunter is their right hand. Teachers discovered that she never could turn them down when they requested to run off stencils, type an important letter, or to run down past correspondence. “Call for Col. Parkins!’ A vacation period MUST be near. Pounded with problems of moving 300 men in and out, Col. E. Will Parkins never loses his cool. An AMA alumnus, whose son also graduated from AMA, Col. Parkins also orders those medals for the honors men. “She's the greatest secretary in the world!’’ enthuses Col. Charles Savedge about Mrs. Barbara Smith. “Cadet records are in shape because of her. And she’s nice.” Administration—143 O Index mentions in copy as well as in photos — unheard of, square, but that gives people a complete idea of how to look up what the year was really like. Work, yes, that was the aim of the ‘Recall’”’ staff — to make the book have even more meaning in that year that others had called pretty square at the beginning. Patrons, what would staffs do without them. The Gruhns, purchasers of two pages and color; the Dents with their page and color; the Iacones with their page; the Creek- mores and theirs. For the first time ever, advertising was hard to obtain — does that point to a difficult future? But the desire to contain making the ad-patron-index more interest- ing than ever, more meaningul than ever for both now and the future was there. So Van Nitz went out and snapped. The staff designed and redesigned pages with (hopefully) snap and sparkle. Then came the wrap-up, the end of the year and advertising-patron-index frenzy. It may seem square to put all the work into it, but it was meaningful, anda learning process. SHENDANDOAH INSTRUMENTS gleam in the sun which made it perfect for Government in- spection. Col. Ben Harmon rates the Band as one of the finest which he has seen. Supportive PON O 144— Supportive Data INDEXED? NATURALLY! That 78-67 FUMA loss to AMA appears in basketball.

As a change from last year, the at- tendance was up at the formal dances. Hard work and dedication by the Co- tillion Club and helpful Band mem- bers made possible the successful dances. In another area, teachers emphasized studying and grades soared. A good example was Pat Dent who took to the books with serious intent and improved his grades. Big Room saw fewer people until the Spring Fever swept the barracks. But the cadets settled down and worked hard for good grades on the Final Exams. Finals followed and then a pleasant summer. OBVIOUSLY PLEASED, Pat Dent smiles after receiving his test paper. Long hours of study- ing enabled Pat to do well in his Intro Chemistry Physics class.

Jutting to a 6’ 1” position on the Color Guard, Parent, Mrs. Stieb, is quick to recognize her son in any crowd. Taking to the fields of Soccer and Lacrosse on his junior year, Lars has made himself the man he always looked up to several years ago. Quite and sure, Lars hits top notch status as the person who didn’t spread the rumors but instead, spread the average. 1974 looks even better.

Provisions for Band Company were bountiful, thanks to the diligent ex- ploits of Supply Sergeant William Hammond. Hammond’s supply of goodies seemed almost endless and when the end seemed near, he always managed to somehow replenish the stores overnight. Some people won- dered if he might be the mastermind behind those midnight requisitions to the mess hall that seemed to plague the corps every third week of the month. Another member of the Band who won recognition was Shaun Ogima- chi. He was declared Best Private after a rigid inspection at the first Full Formal. Shaun’s duties also extended to the mess hall.

THE SAME IS TRUE for Dave Zook, Wayne Vincent and other members of the class of '73 in the lower photo. vvy weg . a - . It’s finished! Hours and days of worry ended when the final shipment arrived from the editor and the ’74 staff took over to do the ads, smooth out rough edges, end the work and ship it out. Words wouldn’t express the feelings the staff of ’74 have for Bob Boe, the AYC represent- ative, (editorial) the FINEST YEARBOOK REPRESENTATIVE IN THE USA. The BOOK was printed in Topeka, Kansas by American Yearbook Company. The cover was designed by Bob Boe and the body type is Palatino. Except for the Optima used for headline types, the rest of the type is rub-off or acetate transfer type. Thanks must go to the corps of ’73 and of ’74 for under- standing and for their concern, to Mrs. Gerald Gruhn for all of her help, to Col. M. H. Livick and Col. John Dekle for their bearing with the staff. In seeming antiquity, the 1972 Recall was rated Medalist and Trendsetter by CSPA, All American by NSPA with five marks of dis- tinction, A + by NSYA, and All Southern by SIPA. Trendsetter was anew award, given to only 10 yearbooks by CSPA in October of 1972. , % THERE ARE ALWAYS MEMORIES of a year when skiing came to be a big thing — or as big as it could in a year when there was no snow. But it was fun — and that is what it was all about. FAVORABLE COMMENT comes from the crowd at the Richmond Coliseum when the color guard makes its annual appearance for the Squires. Ed Cabo, Ben Stewart, and Mark Spigle show. Rapidly the year was ending. Not as it had started. In the beginning it had seemed completely square with a real square as the leader of the pack. Picnics, cook-outs, Band appearances in parades and rallies for Nixon-Agnew, ‘One Way” slogans, quiet times. Not everyone marched to that drum-beat. Sure, there was football, and skiing, informal dances, and roller skating, and there was soft weather and peace. There was fun. There had developed a feeling of belonging and of wanting to do more than the minimum. But there were some who wouldn’t buy that swing back to the 50s in momentum. Maybe it all began to develop with the new dollar crisis (which became crises), the revelations of Watergate, the increasing gas shortages which meant problems for the going teen-ager who saw the roads beckoning to be travelled. It may have been too quiet for guys who couldn’t wait out three months to take aspin, four days to get home. Yet, the senior picnic, the Band bash at Lakeside, the vote of the seniors for a traditional Final Ball, the starched group of 14 declaimers began to wrap it up ina neat, square package for memories of ‘73. quare TRADITIONAL PARADE for an old fashioned way of honoring the three men who helped bring FTX into reality — the corps begins to honor the military personnel. OLD FASHIONED FUN is a new fashioned setting allowing Larry London and Ty Harrison to entertain their dates in a coffee house, quite unlike AMA in bygone days. Unsquare : COMTEMPLATIVE, SAD, just a bit reluc- And it all came together, all of the tant to leave home — AMA, Carl Kellog lets square parts into a beautiful whole. the peace and serenity of the woods seep ; ; ey ts into his being before that final step out. The mood began with the senior picnic which filled and overfilled seniors with just pounds of steak, popcorn, sweet rolls, baked potatoes, drinks, and peanuts. There had been fun, throwing Bob Missman into the icy stream, pitching a few balls, hiking to the top of the dam to watch the water spill over the walls. And the paper arrived just two days before Finals began, but Dave Brown had his crew of workers who wouldn’t say no. There were the starched mess jackets and 30 guys in the figure who demanded that the tradition live on. And there were two valedictorians because it was too close to call — only a .0001 separating Dave Zook and Carl Kellogg. And there were lumps as the march began to Baccalaureate and then back for grad- uation. Looking back it was NOT SQUARE. Certainly there had been growth of reality, of realization that all is not right with the world, that all isn’t right in any situation, but that there are dreamers who see that there can be better ways. What it all boiled down to was that the fun and the friendships weren't square. The year had simply been one when people learned to live with reality and to have fun. as Dre
