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. Brandishing a very solid trombone and 1 J cc ,as Battalion l471'extling 45 Company W'rt'.rtling 3,' Battalion Swimming 7,' Orchestra 11, 3,' Luclgy Bag 3, 7,' Christmas Carzl Committee 3, 7,' Stan' 4, 3. .Benin tfluarl flllcwonahl LITTLE ROCK, ARKANsAs classmate and friend ! 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. The Air Corps, be it Marine or Navy, will be very fortunate when Spcedy', joins its ranks. . T . ' .. . l ' i V arsigf Basketball 4, 3, 7, '45, NA, Varsity Track 4, 3, '45, Spanish Club 3.

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.

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.

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.
