fllialker george Chorsby ST. CHARLES, MICHIGAN I Our boy Thorsby has made himself a ,D I friend to all the plebes. He hails from the ' University of Michigan, where life was different from that he had as a plebe. Early in his Naval career he found the academies a bit tough, but his will to win and hard work pulled him through. In the afternoons he was al- ways out for some sport or extra-curricular activity. His brain-child was a band he organized and tried to get recognized as a regimental organization. The only time George wasted while at the Academy was that he spent trying to convince his roommates that Sherman marched through Georgia.

Yes, Muddy arrived here with the fond memories of two passions: purple and Monty! The first remains just a memory QQ, the second became a lovely reality-you know, June Week, Ring Dance, miniature! And though Muddy num- bered soccer and softball among his favorite sports, and though he earned the envied monicker of striperf' certainly his most enjoyable, most be- loved pastime was curling up on his sack and sleeping-come hell or high water! 9- may 4 . .. - .fi-La' Ulu 4 In I Ill FC Battalion Soccer 4,' Boat Club 4, 3g Lucky Bag 3, 7. frm Wlair Ularler fllielzel MT.

He nex would admit that the Navy was beti 1.1-fr 'Q than the Army, but now he agrees tl he is a full fledged Navy man. Like all the rest us he lhad his ups and downs with the Acaden Departments, but he managed to cross all tl rivers without getting more than his feet w S 3 Wetz si extra-curricular activities included col pany steeplechase, volleyball, and wrestling, well as membership in the Chapel Choir and Chapel Sunday School Staff.

Here is an avowed Pennsylvanian somewhat given to cynicism at times, but whose natural abilities perhaps make it justifiable. Always near the head of the class, F orwood still managed to find time to make a lot of friends here and without neglect ing the fair sex. Coming from the respected halls of Lehigh University, he found the work here not too difficult. His restless energy kept the whole room moving, thoughit was almost too much for us when he showed up with a priceless rubber bathing cap to protect his carefully nurtured hair in the shower.

Gllillon flliahh tfeiler NEW OR1.EANS, LOUISIANA Man, let me tell you, with this char- acteristic phrase Mitt,, Seiler would be- gin another tale of his favorite subject, the old home town-New Orleans. is the third of the Seiler's to leave the deep make good in Uncle Sam's Navy. Neither tdemics nor the Executive Department eak the spirit of this easy going Southerncr. est magazine always held more interest for than a textbook. Whenever he had the xercise, Mite, would just lie on his bunk feeling passed away. The only phase of sy life that really aroused Mitt was thc liberty at the end of each week.

C. , , 7 This gay blade, a tilter of pinball ma- ll 3 chines, a fiend for bridge, a Marine '11 junior, and a professor of sleepology is E man's example of the Carnot cycle oper- ating at absolute zero. With little exertion the blond boy managed to stand one in Dago and leave his Irish name on the foreign language plaque, but if stars were given for struggle and labor, his full dress collar would have been notice- ably bare. He esteemed himself the perfect drag for many skeptical beauties, and continually boasted of the shine on his number one. The Marine Hymn appeals to jackson and he'll add U. S. M. C. to his f'lghtin' Irishn name. Ballalitm Track 4,' Spanish Club, Serb'-Treas., 35 Stars 3. Tom nfiwerell tfulitk HENRYETTA, OKLAHOMA Oklahoma's pride and joy came to us via the Fleet. Tom had two loves: one was the Air Corps, and the other lived back in the home town. He possessed the rare ability to acquire grease without being' greasy. His success at the Academy was a result of hard work. It was an uphill grind all the way, but Torn's 4.0 in common sense aided him to clear all the hurdles with plenty to spare. It would be dillicult to list his talents, but it is suflicient to say that no man ever left the Academy with finer character, ability, or the determination to succeed. Time alone will prove our confidence in him.

Carefully we opened K, ' .g the box from home, when who should pop 'ifaillj in with a hearty Hello fellows, oh boy, chow P, but super-chowhound Bob Sher- man. For Bob, studies and athletics only served to pass the time between meals. It would be most unfair to say chow was Bob's first love. A blue-eyed Massachusetts' lass named '4Tootsie had undis- puted claim to that distinction. Tootsie was the pride and joy of Bob's life being, he claimed, 165 lbs. on the hoof and able to lick any other fellow's girl? Bob will be well-remembered for his tailor-made uniforms, which promoted many a lecture on neatness from inspecting officers.
