This goal, plus an l' 3' ' A earnestdesireforself-improvement,formed a sound foundation for his naval career. Although academics treed him occasionally, when the smoke of the academic battle cleared, Ed was well up on the list of those who survived.

Being a follower of the rule of no talking during that difhcult time between reveille and breakfast, a solver of impossible prob- lems, and a capable player of four bids with no honor count, he was one of the best of roommates. golnn flliilliaun Cummins Cov1NC'roN, KENTUCKX' ',', EVE The quiet man from the land of Boone never made any loud noiseg he believed that deeds speak for themselves.

He never lost his big grin as he calmly took all reverses in stride. Transplanted from the campus of Grinnell College after two years there, the academics here presented him no problems, aside from his occasional bouts with the Spanish primer. He was occupied mostly by his correspondence with innumerable campus beauties from Denver to Skaneateles and a fine library of records. A gentleman, mature and cap- able, Lou will carry his weight well in the Fleet.

FRIDAY HARBOR, WASHINGTON Bud came from the San Juan Islands in the State of Washington, not far from the 1 JMS on ff . Canadian border, It was there that he discovered his deep affection for the sea and ships. For two years he attended the Univer- sity of Washington where he was a member of the N. R. O. T. G. unit. Bud's love for boats attracted him to sailing for his main sport and recreation. He sailed on the plebe team and on the varsity team for two years. As a second-rate sport Bud liked dragging. His friendly smile and suave man- ner made him a favorite with the girls, and he dragged them frequently.

Youngster year he won his 'N' in swimming and added the star at the Army meet. Despite his spending considerable time in the water, his brain showed no evidence of becoming waterlogged. His natural aptitude in history carried him well toward the top of the class during the Youngster year struggle with the Bull Department. As a member of the Chess Club, he was elected Secretary-Treasurer and later Presi- dent. Romantically he was as consistent as his work. He graduates with the same O. A.
