,J 1 -V Qolln flllorrison Charles SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS p In .13 An act of Congress was not necessary to make Juan Carlos a gentleman, for here N' 4- was a gentleman in the true southern meaning of the word. From the very beginning Juan proved to be a real shipmate-many were the times that his helping hand aided E us in surmounting academic obstacles, many were the times that his steady head, his sense of humor, and his incessant crooning helped us through dark moments. Juan will always be foremost among the best of our 'cAnnapolis Memories. When it comes to awarding Navy E's, we will pick the ship with the gentleman from Texas on the bridge.

.lfloyd granklin Bell OKMULGEE, OKLAHQMA Coming to the Academy from the land of Indians and oil wells, Lloyd never 4 learned to like the East. Bringing his trusty slipstick and previous engineering experience, he won his stars. His keen judgment, clear thinking, and sincerity make him the man to ask when seeking advice. With his ability to size up any situation Lloyd does things the easy way. His favorite sport is wrestling, but he plays many sports well, and enjoys a pleasant afternoon on the yawls. He would have us believe that he is a Red Mike. However, before his entrance he was engaged to marry, and his letters and leaves prove him faithful to that same Mary.

The necessity for hard . ' study, learned from an early engagement with the Bull Department, kept him faithfully at his books. Though devoting a great deal of his time and talents to intramural sports, movies, and dragging a real O. A. O., Ray was never too busy to help a plebe in need, nor was he ever. too busy a man to take full advantage of his bunk. His inter- est for many things made a place for him in any bull' session.

Thomas .Winn Bryce : WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS Q Although we have often tried to talk him out of it, Tom still maintains that Texas - is far and away the best state in the Union. His loyalty, however, doesn't stop with the Lone Star state as all his friends and classmates can tell you. Whether because of the wide open spaces of Texas or not, Tom has always shown a yen for outdoor - sports, and any weekend that he was not dragging, you could find him holding down a top - berth on one of the Academyls racing yachts. And regardless of the job, Tom has always proved himself an outstanding leader, capable of commanding the respect and admiration of all who worked with him. c: Sailing 4, ,451 Baal Club 4, 3, 7,' Photographic Club 3, 7. 258 , .
