0 flliilliam Turks tfhuman, ir. CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA Bill hails from the South, where they grow nothing but tobacco and pretty gn, girls,--neither of which bothered him, of V course! He took his greatest pride and in dancing, weight lifting, telling sea stories, rl eating fried chicken, and he made many :nds throughout the Regiment because of his erness to stop and talk of his virtues. Because is three and a half years in the Fleet prior to ering the Academy, Bill was a good deal saltier n most of us when we arrived at Annapolis. -ese years of experience here, strengthened by his ck thinking and happy disposition, give him excellent background upon which to build his 'al career.

Believe us when we say that Oklahomais loss was Navy's, and our, gain. At oratory he is an expert, his plebe proteges will attest to Okie's', wrestling ability, and as for women, he can take ,em or leave lem. Wayne came back from summer leave with a new love-Hying. Even a ground loop or two failed to clip those sprouting wings, and it looks as though we will soon have to look aloft to see him go by-flying high and climbing for the top. l .it r.

A staunch believer in patent medicines and in letter writing, he reaped his reward by having a perpetual sore throat and by getting two or three letters every day,-the former to hiswives' constant amusement, and the latter to their constant chagrin. His quietness and unassuming good nature won him the friendship of all he encountered. The walls of Bancroft didn't tremble when Red arrived, nor when he left, but there are many among us who have benefited greatly by his presence.

Spanky has proven to be a ror on boxing competent exec on the ketches, a terrible ter- the push-ball Held, a stubborn slugger in the ring, and a deceptive opponent in the hand- ball court. As associate editor of Regf Points, he has seen that the new plebes will get the Word. His sincerity, loyalty, and determination will fly wing and wing with him throughout his career.

Q-..-1539 . 1,- 144 Robert Hlfred tfchauffler LAKE LOTAWANNA, MISSOURI Besides giving the Fat Boy his name, Bob spent his plebe year worrying about trees that he never climbed. Youngster 3 summer he roomed in a second deck B-hole with five others, and there he spent his time inventing flame-throwers, window-breakers, and slipsticks with imaginary scales. If we hadn't been exposed to Calc, Bob never would have known what the 2.5 on our rings meant. He came back from annual leave, but his heart remained in Wis- consin. First class year he got off to a good start- she moved to Crabtown. The plebes soon got wise to his bark and found in him a man who could answer their questions, and the friend that we have known.

Famous last words- Resorting to force of arms is admission that you have lost the argument-now, unhand me? His sparkling sense of humor and an intangible gift for making friends kept the company well supplied with drags. Perhaps someday a sympathetic brun- ette will qualify for his co-pilot, but we'll wager that the O. A. O. will always be a sleek F4U. .

Another third was his ath letic ability, which never put his name into th- headlines, but which made him a welcome membe on any team. The last third for Bud was women and he could handle them pretty well. Jack of a trades and master of many, Bud is sure to carry o the family tradition by being a fine oflicer.

If. : 'f4. 951241 Carson fllialson NEW LONDON, MISSOURI I' Tip brought with him from New .am London that outstanding quality of the l Missouri mule-obstinacy. Whether be- i ing shown a problem or being persuaded to drag, he had to be completely and thoroughly convinced. That quality has given him a steadiness and determination that will stand him in good stead in the Fleet. Quiet and thoughtful, he was one of the few who shunned the more frivolous side of academy life such as dancing and dragging, but this was perhaps due largely to the sobering infiuence of that girl back home. Tip'sl' de- pendability and unassuming friendship have won him a host Of friends at the Academy. Basketball 4, 3, ,45,' Company Voltryball 3, i-45.

His academic specialty is consistently scoring 3.0 Or better without ever cracking a text. Christmas leaves have found him too far from California to make the trip there, but he's kept pretty well in touch with the home folks by averaging a letter a day from them for as long as four weeks at a time. Good humor and an even disposition should make the lad welcome in ward- rooms until he bilges the age exam.
