He wields a mean lacrosse stick and handles a pair of boxing gloves in a manner that bodes no good for the man on the receiving end. To this combination of musical and physical prow- ess he added an almost psychic insight into his partner,s bridge hand and a mighty smooth line. In almost any phase of Academy life we think back on, Bert will be one of the most conspicuous memo- ries.

Afternoons he invariably spent in a handball court, and the white walled cells enclosed many a rugged match. Stymied dur- ing Plebe year by German, Bill now has stars to attest to the reverses which he later dealt to the Academic Departments. We didn't see much of him or his ready smile on weekends, for he seemed to prefer Eileenls company to ours, but we are going to enjoy a big hunting trip together soon, out Pacific way. 51: are C f Battalion Handball 3, 7, 7945g Boa!

A natural athlete, when he could tear himself away from a bridge game, Pinky scrambled through with only an average number of bobbles. Combin- ing this with an amazing talent for avoiding the Exec.

Richard Qavis .feel Los ANGELES, CALIFORNIA .ff .5 Young Loeln came out of the Far West ready to take over the Naval Academy. ' gj Whenever he was able to corner a hapless 2'5 listener he would discuss the beauties of his native California for hours. If anyone wanted to find him the place to look was behind a cloud of synthetic glamour made up of pictures of beau- tiful women and hot records. His study hours were spent chewing on his pipe and trying to convince himself that They can't expect us to know all this stuff. Whenever Dick had a run in with the Executive Department he managed to convince himself that he was right. Unfortunately he still took his fraps. Battalion Handball 4, 3. Charles Wriesi, ir. CARSON CITY, NEVADA , While just a small boy out on the desert of Nevada, Chuck had a desire to come to the Naval Academy. After living on the desert for twenty years, the great open sea did not scare him, and he wanted to become a naval officer. Never a member of the radiator squad, Chuck could always be found out for foot- ball or track during the afternoons. On the week- ends his pet diversion was dragging a Washington brunette. As a three striper he also kept himself busy trying to improve the 10th company. In the 'future Chuck can be counted on to be in there pitching on one of Uncle Sam's subs. A Football 11.

If his ventures into the realm of pugilism had not been cut short by an unfortunate habit of striking his opponent severely on the fist with his own nose, Ham might someday have developed into another Jack Dempsey or Joe Louis. Henry's meeting Marge curtailed his career as a snake, fortunately for his friends. If he can be kept well supplied with chow, Hankls conscientious effort will help him to an outstanding naval record.
