For four years we have been blessed with his humor and good nature. However, George was lar from all fun. One of the most outstanding athletes, despite his seem- ingly frail frame, George has been quarter back on the football team, guard on the basketball team, and a doubles man on the tennis squad, giving an enduring and earnest performance in each. It was no surprise that George was elected President of the National Athletic Scholarship Society. A top student academically, George won Merit Status several times and held membership in the many honorary societies. The next stop on George's agenda will be Dartmouth College.
