Two l years in the Fleet tempered and blended 1 this gift and gave Ash a practical appre- ciation of the Academy, a clear mind, a wonderful sense of humor, and a disposition never to be ruffed by the most trying times and people. Although not outstanding in academics, Ash had little trouble thinking his way through the stiffest subjects and explaining them to us. I-Ie ran the battalion sports department ragged by showing up on a new team every season.

Qames Thompson: Boone CONNERSVILLE, INDIANA H Dan came to the Navy from the heart of Indiana, showing his true woodsman spirit , by his untiring passion for long crosscountry hikes. With much grumbling, he may admit to you that Maryland outdoor life is almost as interesting as his Hoosier country. Hels amazed us all by his extensive knowledge of guns and sailing vessels which gave him a head start on most of us in the practical subjects. In an unhurried manner, he methodically worked out the problems that many times bothered the rest of us. He was seldom to be seen at the I-Iops-social life didn't seem to appeal to him, but Dan is devoted to a very special girl back at Purdue University-hels a swell guy, Mary!

Bombastically energetic, he easily made the company wrestling and battalion push- teams, always Hghting to the end in these ne crushing sports.

If it were a bridge game, a heavy bull Tom entered the Naval Academy with 4 g M his feet on the ground and his eyes wide open, and he hasn't changed a bit. He brought with him an acute sense of humor, a keen appreciation of a job well done, and certain quiet, self-conhdent demeanor which has earned our most sincere respect. Having spent a successful year at M. I. T., Torn was well equipped for his encounters with the academic slips, and his record proves it. The coxwain's seat in the Varsity shell was his spot after drills. He was a Red Mike by choice and, as a certain party will attest, a rnost faithful correspondent. Here's luck and good sailing to an ofiicer and a gentleman.

Gabby brought to the Naval Academy a love for practical , 1' jokes and dragging. The boys in the Happy Eighthi' will remember corn flakes in beds and alarm clocks in light globes and other pranks of his nibs. Possessed with powerful vocal chords, but a one note voice, Cabby came to be called Croaky. Hops were a must for Cab, and if he wasn't dragging, he was certainly in the stag line. Croaky was always out for a sport, whether it was Battalion football, pushball, or wrestling. A true Southerner, accent and all, Gabby is easy to get along with, as his future shipmates will happily discover. Company Spam' 4, 3, 7.
