But very determined, Cstubborn?j, he and Te- fmally settled their differences, and Bill time for the golf, swimming, and bowling Bill has always done well, especially in golf, aving had much experience before he came to the cademy and adding some on leave. How about at set of golf clubs and that War Bond? Hard to et along with?-not this Minnesota middie. Even isappointments in love failed to mar his good umor.

And before long, f'Bones had a ketch command, with the good ship Crocodile under his able direction. Taking time off in the winter to bolster the varsity riHe squad, he soon was tiring in a key spot. But spring again, and the yawls were much too inviting. Soon both yawl and ketch command cards adorned his locker door. Not many plebes will forget their excellent tutelage on Rules of the Road from Bones.'9 Now the Fleet calls out our 'csaltyn mariner from Ban- croftis walls and we send him off with our best.

Plebe year was '. . definitely a question of deciding whether the Navy was the proper place for this Texan, however, his constant improvement indicates that he is now squared away. While he is in character with the silent western type, don't cross him. He loves to argue. Black is white! Kirk said so. His ability in athletics and extra curricular activities was dominated by that H1645 formation. Three years on the 'csquadi' definitely rates' a medal. Kirk's smooth tactics with drags prove that he is the desirable hard to get type.

He brought to the Academy a variety of Eskimo lore, a friendly disposition, and plenty of tales about how often the folks eat canned salmon in Ketchikan. Never worried about academics, standing in the first hundred in the class since plebe year, he always found enough time for everything. Crosscountry was his true love, and just about every evening, he could be found out on the cinders. His motto- A good magazine makes much better reading than an assignment sheetf' With his good humor, frankness, and will to win, Keith should go a long way in our war-time Fleet.

gohn gordon Ulammer PORTLAND, OREGON T Here you see a real westerner, a man to whom the rest of the United States is just Q - ' 'V cc t east. It won't take long for Gordon o tell you of the beauties of Mt. Hood and Crater Lake. Gordie came a long way, but once here he surprised the Academic Departments by starring throughout his stay at the Academy. He was outstanding in everything he undertook, whether it be academics, dragging the scores of pretty girls he knew, running on the track and crosscountry teams, or just taking liberty. The Naval Academy will remember his mental prowess, but his classmates will remember his keen wit and sparkling personality.

A ,...: ' Thou 'h he was an ex-railroader ex- ,t 1' . surveyor, and ex-soldier, he soon proved A to be no slouch in the liner arts of the old Navy game. Studying never bothered Doc, but he managed to stay well up in the academic race. Rilie, track, soccer, and Dago'l Club kept him busy yet he always had time to join the fellows and add his stories and gestures to the fun. The sins of the system never failed to bring a healthy protest from him. A good friend and classmate ashore, he will prove a good shipmate at sea.

S. S. Calyfornia. If you ever want to hear a good sea-story, just ask Bill to tell you one. Many of us first met him when he came to the Naval Academy Preparatory School at Norfolk. Since then we have found him to be a real friend and a helpful roommate. He is a salty Sam if we ever saw one. Here's hoping he carries the iight that he exhibits in his battalion football games right back into the Fleet. Good Luck, Bill.

The first thing he had to i l A 1.2 1 :ft :Xffl fs was spend the whole evening before his physic examination stretching up to the 5 ft. 4 in. heig requirement. Next the Academic Department too- a turn at him, but Hopl' came through after tough fight. Don't be fooled by his size, for, hasnlt hampered him in any way, be it athletic dragging, or entertaining us with his everlasti Western wit. Hop', will be a good man to kno out at sea, for he's certainly proved that whe there's a will, there's a way.

Threats and persuasive measures by the upperclasses could not still the elfervescent La- martin sense of humor, itwas not long before they, as well as Fredls classmates, had succumbed to his happy temperament. The Academic Departments uncovered the serious side to this staunch backer of Greater New York, his stars prove that studies failed to trouble him. Fred was forced to turn to Christmas Card committeeing, Lucky Bag organiz- ing, tromboning in the Academy orchestra, and wrestling in order to keep his schedule a full one.

From the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota to the Naval Academy came Bill f'Speedy Lewis. With him came his 4' basketball skill, his golden hair, and his winning ways. He was soon tagged Speedy Things came rather easy for Bill, his sack soon be- come his best friend. L'Speedy, a typical westerner, is a big-hearted, amiable fellow who makes a good friend and a bad enemy. Noted for his good looking drags, Bill carries a date book which will go at a high price when some lucky gal hooks him.
