Hc was a member of the Glee Club and, although he was not a natural athlete earned his letter in crew ill ,45. Joe, always one of the form's spark plugs, has been sorely missed. VVe all regret that his magnetic vitality was missing from our ranks this year. VVyman enlisted in the United States Navy i11 Nlarch, 1945, and Went to boot camp at Sampson, N. Y., in May ofthe same year. He is now at San Diego, Cal., where he is at- tached to the Fleet Postoffice. VVyman's admission to School in 1940 started a five year career which we of thc older part of the form are not likely to forget. He had a rare and delightful sense of humor. He was a letter-ma11 in hockey in ,44 and '45 and was elected Captain for '46. He also earned his football letter in 215. Wyfman has given a trophy to the School to be awarded to the most improved hockey player each season. lt is things like this that make us remen1ber VVyman and regret that he could not have been here this year to graduate with us.
