Bobby Lawerence Barber Savannah, Ga. “DUMBO” Through determination and courage “Dumbo” has boosted himself to the top of the popularity list with the corps of cadets. This slugging cap- tain of our boxing team is always on the alert to prove himself to be the man we know he is. All the luck to you, and may your life always be successful. 1944- 45 Pvt. Co.

Those familiar sessions are appreciated by all, 1947-48 Pvt. Co. Band; A Team Basketball. ★ Gustavo J. Benitez Santurce, Puerto Rico “GUS” “Gus” as he is known by the cadets is one of the best liked boys in the school. Although he came here from Puerto Rico with little knowledge of American customs, he soon showed his ability by quickly obtaining “the knack” for the American way. We will all miss “Gus” and we know he will be a great success in life. If we never meet again here's wishing you all the luck in the world. 1945 46 Pvt. Co. B; Rifle Chib. 1946- 47 Pvt. Co. B; Rifle Club; Band; Glee Club, 1947- 48 Cpl. Co. Band; B Team Football; Non- Comm. Club; Annual Staff; Glee Club. ★ John Crawford Bennett Columbia, S. C, “HODrAK” Our ’47-’48 drum-maior and Editor-in-Chief is what most of us would consider “A Real Gone Guy” (a right guy for the benefit of all squares). His personality, perserve ranee, intelligence and journalistic ability will undoubtedly contribute to the career “Hodink” selects. We all wish you luck at the ‘‘Point”. 1944- 45 Pvt. Co. “C”; P. F.

P.” Just as some various happenings have to grow on odd persons so was the case of this fellow, but just as in the former case, and by following the old expression “EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR THE BEST”, I’m sure that every one of the stu- dents at Carlisle would have felt thoroughly dis- gusted with life if they hadn't ever had the oppor- tunity of actuallv becoming acquainted with him. We all wish you the best of luck—“B. P.” 1946- 47 Pvt. Co. A: P. F. C Co. A. 1947- 48 Sgt. Staff; Annual Staff; Non-Comm. Club. ★ Philip Black Chicago, 111. FLIP” Most probably everyone’s first impression of you, Philip, was “a very happy, carefree boy”, but we’ve all learned different. We all know that there are various important things that you strive for and we know that you will get whatever you go after. Much luck, “Flip”. 1944- 45 Pvt Co. “C”; Rifle Club. 1945- 46 Pvt.

Winfred Ronald Braswell Thomas ville, Ga. “BRAS’ About all we can say about “Bras” is that he is really gifted with the knack ot writing. If ever anyone needs help with some theme or some re- port, they would only have to look up “Bras” and their’s would come out way ahead of everyone else’s. Carry on “Bras”. 1945- 46 Pvt. Co. C. 1946- 47 Pvt. Co. C; C Team Football; C Team Baseball; Newspaper Staff. 1947- 48 Pvt. Co. C; C Team Football, Baseball, Basketball; Newspaper Staff; Annual Staff. ★ John Andrew Carlisle Hagerstown, Maryland “QUIET JOHN” Hailing from the thriving metropolis of Hagers- town eame “Quiet John”. Never lost for words, but always limiting his words to those few neces- sary to express his thoughts was one of John’s most unusual traits. Carlisle has lost a scholar, a gentleman and a cadet. The world has gained a citizen, who will soon make his mark. 1946- 47 Pvt. Co. B; P. F. C. Co. B; Mgr. B Team Football; Flight Club. 1947- 48 Cpl. Co. B; Crack Platoon; Non-Comm. Club. ★ Leon Warren Castles Great Falls, S. C. “T. P ” Every year a person’s mind grows broader and can judge others by their actions. “T. P.” started at Carlisle in '46 as a Soph, and has worked himself up and into the Senior Class of ’48. It is because of this that I say: “We, the Senior's of '48, have all the confidence of the world in you, ‘T. P.’ ” 1946- 47 Pvt. Co. A; P. F. C. Co. A; A Football Team; Baseball; Block “C”, 1947- 48 Sgt. Co. A; A Football Team; A Baseball Team; Non-Comm. Club; Block “C” Club. ★ Robert Chaplin Hartsville, S. C. “BOBBY” Well! . . . you’d probably say if you ever walked down the corridor of the second-section shortly after falt-in to call-to-quarters had blown. A person would think that the wild west bandits of old had come back, but it would only be “Bobby” with his handkerchief across his face sweeping the hall. By the way, “Bobby”, that hall really sparkled. 1947-48 Pvt. Co. B; A Team Football; Block “C” Club. ★ Donald Paul Coffelt Falls Church, Va. “DON” Don, although a senior his first year, has made an impression on the boys that shall never be for- gotten. “Don” with his friendly smile was always there to lend a hand when trouble came your way. No matter where he goes there is happiness, and we know he will make good always. 1947-48 Pvt, Co. A. ¥ Hugh L. Cotton, Jr. Jacksonville, Fla. “HUGO” It is beyond us at this present time, as it is with “Hugo” to say what he will do in the cosmopolitan world, but take it from all who have ever had contact with him—he’s carrying the goods—and he’ll deliver. 1944- 45 Pvt.
