EARL PORTER Kutz Private First Class Trenton New jersey J. V. Football--45 Varsit Basketball-4g Dean's List-4. Kutz has played four years varsity football but only one year varsity at B. M. I. He made all-city, all-county and second team all-state. Baseball was another sport he partici- pated in and played three years varsity. Since the beginning of school we have found him to be one of our best athletes and we admire his pleasing personality. Kutz would like to enter the University of Maryland or Pennsylvania. Which- ever college he enters, he will find success and be a credit to the school, since he is such a hard worker and sticks to whatever he starts to the finish. Good Luck Kutz! RAUL A. PRUDENCIO Flaro Private First Class El Salvador Central America Varsity Soccer-45 Dean's List-4. Flaco, one of our Central American students, came to B. M. I. this year to enable him to qualify for Texas A. 8: M. We consider him a loss for Central America and a gain for B. M. I. for he has made many friends here. He is a quiet, modest fellow. We shall not soon forget his skill and con- tribution to our 1955 Soccer team. He may take over his father's business, so success to you, Flaco, in all your future endeavors. ss! 5-J
