Ah, Bill, it's about time to get your hair cut But, fortunately, Bill Friday never did get his hair cut g he never lost his modest individuality, his unassuming but distinctive personality, his whispered non- conformity. Wliile those about him were boisterously proclaiming their supposed self- importance, Bill was quietly and maturely moving ahead and impressing those who knew him well. Bill has a unique sense of humor. He has an uncanny ability to tell a joke without the least hint of a smile. His keen political insight allows him to see and express the often hidden humor in governmental af- fairs. I . K WILLIAM W. FRIDAY Entered Academy in 1964 Soccer .......... Swimming ..

He has contributed his clay foot to the soccer team and his golden voice to both the Glee Club and the more polished Avengers. I-Iis awareness of social problems has led him to work with Project Neighbor. We have all been enriched by Bill's friend- ship. His honesty, maturity, and sincerity will be for his future friends, as they have for us, a quiet cove in a confused sea. x if Vx . pig lgifl edging, F' XUX 'I MW'- if . ,, V., fi, 'M-ffflt 3 ik , ,QW i f?- 4': 't a wqggiff . if 1' , ,.

Mike has served as sports editor of the Life and senior editor of the Canwel, has sung in the Glee Club and the Octet, has worked for Project Neighborg in short, he has participated in nearly every activity. Un- fortunately, the Duck's athletic career has been hampered by knee injuries. Mike is a cloud of paradoxes. His pop- ularity is seen in his election as President of his Junior Achievement companyg yet, he was nominated for every senior-class office and was elected to none. That he is a fine student is undeniable, for he usually ranks in Ist groupg yet, his work occasionally lapses. Mike's puzzling nature is undoubtedly caused by his unfulfilled search for ideals and moral guidelines, In his attempts to im- prove the school, for example, he has de- bated the merits and demerits of the honor code and the students' responsibility to their school. Mike French has drive, intelligence, htunor, idealism, and courageg when he finds the answers to his questions, he should be a great man. 25

These are the tools of his trade. jim is the captain of the 1968 Academy tennis team, having lettered the past three years. As well as being one of the finest doubles players in the city, Jim has demon- strated his skill in intramural basketball. Aside from being athletic, jim is also studious. jim is constantly on the Honor Roll. He has participated in many extra- curricular activities, including Project Neigh- bor and the Spanish Club. Jim is an excellent writer, especially in the field of sports. He has written for four years on the Academy Life. The excellent sports pages at the back of this book are the prod- uct of many hours of his labor. His imagina- tion and sincere desire to work to the best of his ability have served him well in his job as Sports Editor. These same two qualities will succeed in anything he tries in the fu- ture, whether in the field of sports or aca- demics. JAMES G. FRIEDMAN Entered Amdemy in 1 956 Tennis ............... . . .
