He possessed the knack of brightening up the gloomy days by his well- intentioned wit and he always showed a genuine regard for the interests of others. Bill is an apt golfer and a valuable basketball player. In the latter sport he was a pleasant surprise and a most welcome addition to the team. There is little doubt as to Bill's scholastic intention for next year, since from sunset to dusk he raved over the feats of Holy Cross with special em- phasis on their golf team. Thus both athletically and scholastically, he has shown the true Cran- well spirit. His lively enthusiasm and deep loy- alty have won him many a life long friend and in departing, we wish him endless success at Holy Cross. fh- W flllllilis ' 1 mov I WILLIAM JOHN BURNS r Nickname: Bunso College Intention: Holy Cross Service Intention: U.

M552 Q6 WW 'ffagQ4'ff6f ea 0,1 C?Q Q refute Genial jack, who hails from Waterbury, Con- necticut, came to Cranwell to finish his prep school course. Wherever fun and laughter are found, Jack is always in the midst of it. Al- though a newcomer this year he has already been accepted by the faculty for his untiring efforts in the classroom and by the senior class as a welcome addition. On the basketball court he is fast, shifty, and his shot is very accurate. When the baseball season rolls around, jack guards the initial sack, snagging all the pegs that come his way, and whipping the ball to home for a quick put-out. Jack intends to ma- triculate at West Point where he will prepare zealously for his life work, engineering. Good luck, Jack and our hope is that you may always have happiness and success. With the principles inculcated at Cranwell ever before your eyes, we know you will aim high and undoubtedly attain recognition in your chosen field.

His likeable manner and ready wit have endeared him to all of us, his friends, during his years at school. He was widely known as a con- noisseur of anything having four wheels and a motor and many were the times he was heard raving over the capabilities and horsepower of his Buick, When King Winter tightened his Hrm grasp on the Berkshires, Charlie was ac- customed to wend his way down to the hockey rink, to display his Wizardry on the silvery blades as an ardent wing on the hockey team. His intellectual capacity too, has raised him into the upper ranks of his class. Yes, when Charlie departs, he will be well equipped to contribute his bit for a war wrecked world, and we who know him are certain that he will emerge glori- ously and successfully.
