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.

Craig filberl Randall MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA From the land of the sky blue waters came the happiest man in '45. All the horrors of Plebe year weren't able to dent his line sense of humor, nor sober his ever- ready smile. No man in the regiment could keep pace with his countless dragging intricacies, nor equal his now traditional pap for driving a steamroller around Hospital Point. He had a yen for activity, and was never at ease unless he was busy. Randy fought his way academically, but still managed to command the ketch, Turtle, help design the class crest, and keep his classmates laughing at his endless antics. He lives for week- ends, and eventually hopes to spend one dropping bombs on Tokio.

Ever since, he I has busied himself with a great variety of activities. In the fall he played with the varsity grid squad, in winter he wrestled up in the loft, and in the spring he tossed the discus. Coupled with his athletic prowess was a frank, forceful manner which quickly earned him both the respect and friendship of his classmates. Stark, as he was dubbed in his first Dago class, was naturally smart and, therefore, never troubled by academics. Bill will always be remembered as an all around man who had the courage of his convictions and, above all, as a real friend. , ' I II.1al:,.-l,Aw:aIII I Varsity Football 4, 3, 7, NA, Varsity Track 4, 3, 7, IVY Varrigf Wrestling 4, 3, 7, w45tg Newman Club 4, 3, 7,- Cherr Club 4, 3, 75 German Club 4, 3, 7,- Reception Committee 3. .Wlan Qiarllell Jlheparal, fr.
