When Andy Hommeyer entered Blake in the eighth grade, few people knew he would become one of the finest athletes that have attended Blake Not all of his athletic prowess can be attributed to his nat ural ability, for without a doubt his success has been the result of his keen competitive spirit This Splrlt is evident not only on the athletic field but also in the classroom and elsewhere Although Andy would prob ably be too modest to admit it he finds it very irk some to be outdone and has the attitude of do or die This year he was determined to reach the top of the class scholastically and his determination paid off His Senior year looked difficult for him with his many extracurricular activities and busy Senior sched Make two grins grow where there was only a grouch before Hubbard JOHN ANDREW HOMMEYER Entered Blake in 1950 Dramatlcs Association VI Glee Club VI V Sports Editor of Publications VI President of Athletic Association VI Captain Browns VI Football VI V IV Hockey VI V Baseball VI V-Captain VI ule However these obstacles were not going to stop Andy and with what seemed like ease he overcame them and reached his ultimate goal Andy has a hu morous side, too When a joke strikes him as being unusually funny this sturdy fellow laughs loud enough to amaze many who know only his serious side Not all of Andys interests are confined to school, for many times he has taken to the boards face there hes a remarkable characteristic sincerity in thought and deed All that Andy says and does is ap preciated for its sincerity When Blake loses Andy its losing a scholar an athlete a competitor and above all a wonderful guy' ft u .5 - . 3 n , as ' u 3 5 3 9 a 3. 7 5 y ' 1 ' r 7 ' CK 77 ' ' , ' ' - for a skiing trip.
