SENIOR CLASS As the class of 1952 leaves B.M.l., we can look back on our record with a feeling of pride. Almost every senior has held some military rank, participated in one sport or another, or has been a member of some other group within the corps. And most important of all, many of us have received some scholastic recognition. It is hard to draw a line between the outstanding and the merely good, but it would seem that the top scholars were Trout, Reed and O'Brien. In the military field, the top members of our group have been Tindall, Assistant Commandant, and Sorak, Battalion Commander and Commander of the Landon Rifles. Other top men were the three Company Commanders, Gladstone, Hartpence and Sasso, the Band Commander, Valdes, and the Battalion Adjutant, Scholtz. On the sports scene the seniors held high po.sitions on each team, among these were Ellis, Tindall, O'Brien, Stote, Hengst, Scholtz, Reed, Arnold, Faust, Russell, and Se ar. g In other work, Steve Sorak, Dave Gladstone, and Tom O'Brien headed the Sword and Sabre while Dick Trout and Richard Lupoff were at the top of the Skirmisher. Sorak was president of the reading club, and Folsom was acting chairman of the Y.M.C.A. Others were active in all these activities. So the class of '52 leaves a mark for its successors to shoot at and wishes them luck in doing it.
