Curlis Wlherlon BROOKLYN, NEW YORK Q...-..,v-, Skip, with two years Of luxurious col- l- J .tl lege life behind him, found that the Academy was no country club. Young Curt had no trouble with studies and would have been a star man if he could have stayed away from his bunk long enough. 'cCurt', could be found on the baseball diamond during the after- noons catching a bang-up game. He was a modern swing fan and practically wore out his record player. His favorite recording is Sweet Eloise - possibly because of a young lady of the same name who possesses a Naval Academy miniature. Skip is airminded and already owns a private pilot license. We will always remember Skip's con- tribution to our nightly bull sessionsw and his desire to become a top-notch tighter pilot.

Big Bob came out of the wild West and railroading, to say nothing of the social life, to seclusion and the Navy. He prob- -Y ably figured that riding ships was like riding bucking broncos. Plebe year found him on the radio networks and dragging blind. When he doesn't show up at a Hop, dragging or stag, Dahl- gren will collapse. Academics worried him a great deal, but ,his marksgnever showed any need of it. He hit the frap sheet with the rest of us but tried very hard to stay off it.

Needless to say, the routine of Academy came as a shock to him, however, wasn't long before he had acclimated himself, ' running the first class was second nature.

In his spare time you could find Robin down on the ketches, ! and very few weekends found him far from the Eastern Shore. Bob's only real ob- jection to the Academy was that he couldn't be here and with Kay at the same time. His friendship and loyalty will be remembered and cherished by his many friends, and when ' two or three shall meetv Bob will be one of the first to be recalled.

First Class year our boy bounced into his big posi- - 1: 2 tion, cheer leader, and began pouring out some of his boundless energy in whipping up enthusiasm in the regiment. First up at reveille, he was a continual source of amazement to his wives who never did find out how anyone could be so gay after the 'cFourth Deck Alarm drove them out of warm beds. The plebes, the youngsters, and the elite all knew Mick,', his smile, his buoyant spirits, and his song.

At times he found the academic road quite bumpy, but sheer pluck and common sense kept his head well above the waterline. Though a silent nature indicated a shyness to women, dragging weekends always found him contributing his share of wooing. His heart, however, always belonged to Gloria. His friends were numerous, his enemies nil. This Southern gentleman will be a fighting naval ofhcer, a fine shipmate, and a terror to the enemy. :od use to which he put it.
