fllialler Wlarwey Qodshall OXNARD, CALIFORNIA . 'A ' Being a true Californian, Walt never lost an opportunity to build up the West Coast. Homer could always be mustered for a description of a moonlight ride down the coast or a lazy afternoon on the beach. Florida oranges and Maryland weather were his pet peeves. When the time came to buckle down or lend a helping hand, Walt was always there. Most of Homer's time was consumed planning a weekend yawl race, for he skippered the yawl FLIRT. Al- though contented as a baby when out on the Chesa- peake, he was as furious as an irate O. D. when in there pitching for the company. Knowing the number of his Academy friends, we feel certain that Bub will make a great shipmate.

With a quick smile and a mod- ! est manner, he has always stood ready to help out anyone in distress. Academics never gave Buck an extra worry, and during study hours, he could always be found either sleeping or eating. Football, good music, and dragging Hlled the re- mainder of his time. Between football seasons, Dick was lively in intramural sports and spent consider- able time yachting on the Chesapeake. As an honor member of the Flying Squadron, Buck could never be called a Red Mike on dates of Hops or weekends. No time is too soon to find Dick as a shipmate again.

After exploiting the dubious joys of the Navy juniors for two years, he branched out First Class year and was frequently seen at the Hops guiding some queen about the floor on those P. T. boats he called feet. As an athlete, Jo sparked the Battalion track and 5 crosscountry teams and spent many a Sunday morning on the tennis courts. During study hours, he was frequently seen with his nose in formidable volumes on obscure subjects like ornithology or Freud. An ability to 'fget the stuffy' quickly and a clear professional mind should get Jo places in the submarine service. :Pi Varxigz Sailing 3,' Battalion Cf0556DuIlllj! 3, Ballalian Track 3, 7,' Newman Club 4, 3, 7,' r Baal Club 4, 3, 7,' Lucky Bag 7, Printing Editor. ..

Is it an old Berea College friend, or just one of those femmes he met on that last yacht trip? Fanny was on the sailing team for two YWQAAQN, years and also a helpful addition to our Battalion football team. He always took the time to understand things and worked with the same determination that was evident on his face, but still he a.lways had a minute in which to offer friendly advice to someone who was not as fortunate as he academically. Conquering French in his only clash with the Aca- demic Departments, nothing should stop this industrious and practical fellow in whatever he does.

After graduating, he would be very content to settle down to shore duty in Long Beach.

Clifford Eugene Wfunler TAYLORVILLE, ILLINOIS W 'gifl Gene, arriving in Annapolis with a University of Illinois background, was a con- scientious young man, ready to answer all questions on the past and present of the pl 5 2-lr! Prairie State. Plebe year, Gene went out for his favorite sport, football, and stuck with it throughout his time here. Not much of a Red Mike, he was always looking for new fields to conquer, giving all the girls a whirl, but staying clear of entangling alliances. Although academics kept him occupied most of the time, he took an active interest in extra- curricular activities, assisting on the business staffs of the Luclgy Bag and the Trident. Whatever lies ahead, his winning personality will be a fine foundation for what success may come his way. lfarxigv Foolball 4, 3, 7, '45, Lucky Bag, Battalion Circulation Mag 7,' Italian Club 4, 3, 7. , , Thomas fllieir gollnslon Wlerce .Qndrew Qenren, jr.

After recovering from the shock of finding that the Academy was not co- educational, ,Iirn gradually got into the swing of the system. In athletics, his interest turned to box- ing, and for two years he has proudly worn the medal as a finalist in the Regimental boxing championship. Another record of which he is equally proud is that he never walked a step of extra duty in three perilous years of dodging D. O.'s. With that kind of luck to charm his life, it's diflicult to see how he can miss success in the Fleet. lik- F1 HT. ,'eTfll.J1' Hi' Fail L I ., ll .J Boxing 3, 7, b.N'1fg Qzlarlerdeck SOCl.L'4jl 4.
