About three years ago an unknown fin these partsy boy named VVallie Kirk drifted into our dear old school. It was Walter Kirk, Jr. He was just another new keydet, but, OH! How he obtained the attention of the girls . . . If you put two and two together you get four, but when you put the parts of Wallie together you get one hundred per cent. GEORGE MCALPIN LANG Dromout, Pittsburgh, Pa. fllilitnry: Private, Company C, 1931-32, Pri- vate, First Class, 1032-33. 0rga1tiz11tirm.r: Dramatic Clubg Lacy Literary Society. This fellow, hailing from the Smoky City, has left a string of records broken behind him. Nine out of ten times George is in the upper third of his classes. He speaks German as well as a stein-lifter. A hobby of his is making model aero- planes-with skill, plus weeks of work. He spends hours and hours moulding one plane into shape. Lang also draws with exceptional ability, and enjoys music. He toots a mean sax himself. He is a fine, quiet, conservative fellow except when Pitts- burgh is mentioned. Then, of course, he brags.

Everyone is ready to laugh over a good joke with Mac, and if one laughs at him--he can take it. There is that certain something in his smile that seems to single out everyone personally.

sf HE RIER PATCH E FREDERICK OZRO GRANGER Lynchburg, Ohio Ihlilitary: Private, Company C, 1929-31: Sergeant, Company B, Company C, 1931-33. .-ilhlfrtirr: Colonel Football, 1932-33: Wrestling Squad, 1931-533 Best Drilled Private, 1930-31. Ofg1mi:'.ation.r.- Ohio Club, 1929-33, Philomalhian Literary Society, 1929-33. Peter Stuyvesant the Second, who is hailed around these parts as Ozro, is the little Dutchman who goes over big with all the ladies. He lives away down on Plum Street in Lynchburg. CWVhat? You never heard of Lynchburg? You thought it was in Virginia? Durnblj He is known widely for his fine pool game and his ability to chew straws perched up on one of the stools in the Lynchburg Pharmacy. I-Ie has been a prominent figure around old G. M. S. for the past four years. His enormous ability to eat is the awe of all the new boys. He stands out in the fall as that fighting Colonel tackle. VVe hope he will be as successful in the cruel world as he is at goldbricking around Greenbrier. Here's to you, Ozro-you're okeh! VVILLIAM SLACK HOPPSTETTER Huntington, W. Va. Illililnry: Private, Band, 1931-33. 1llhlA'tir.r.' Colonel Football, Midget Basket Ball, 1932-33. Organizaiianr: Forensic Club, 1932-335 Philomathian Literary Society. Does he like football? YVell, if you will look at the Colonel football picture you will find Hopp, and if you will look at the Midget football picture-there he is again! He also works around the back campus with the track team. He takes life slow and easy most of the time. His face opens up for a whole-hearted grin whenever he doesn't know the answer to a question. He is a good mathematician, when he wants to be. The girls don't seem to bother him. He will get there-meaning: Wherever he wants to go. CHARLES W. IGNATIUS Cincinnati, Ohio lllilitnfy: Private, Band Section, 1929-QOQ Corporal, Band Section, 1930-319 Sergeant, Band Section, 1931-321 First Lieutenant, Band. Section. 1 u 0rga11izatio1u.' Ohio Clubg Non-Commissioned Oliicers Club, Commissioned Ofhcers Clubg Philomathian Literary Society, Orchestra, 1929-33. Illerlnlr: Scholarship, Band. Special Honor: Senior Class Orator. Is Iggy a good student? Well, the second term he made a bad grade on English IV exam, which was his lowest. A terrible grade. A shameful grade. Only 98! His favorite occupation is kidding Canter. His next favorite is shining his boots so that they resemble ebony mirrors. He is a good speaker, has personality, can be businesslike when necessary, and would make a good executive, steamship captain, bandmaster or professor. But who can tell? Maybe he will decide to be a street car conductor. If he does, we will wager he will speed up all the stiff grades on his route. FREDERICK VVILLIAM JASPER Glen jean, VV. Va. Jllilitnry: Private, Company B, 1931-325 Corporal, Company B, 1932-33. fltltlfticr: Varsity Football, 1931-333 Varsity Basket Ball, 1931-33: Varsity Baseball, 1931-33. SoCieg'gl11LiZIIli07lJ.' Student Council, 1932-33: GU Club, 1931-355 Forensic Club, 1931-335 Philomathian Literary If ever you enter thc Golden Gates of the City of Glen jean, you will be bound to know' Fred. That is, if you stop for any length of time at the one filling station where he holds his summer workout. . This is his second year here and he has six letters to his credit. He was captain of basket ball, and a good leader. He is a snappy corporal. Many military geniuses come from the ranks. Maybe if he were here a few more years he would be a captain or something. VVe thi11k so. Fred says that the dances we hold in tl1e gym at drill period are wonderful, so helpful to one's mind. It does lift a lot of weight off you when they are over. His famous last words: I don't think so. -sg 15

Clarke Gable the Second-maybe even the First. That's Mac. Keats said it: A thing of beauty is a joy forever. Ask l1im about the spring vacation trip to Saltville! Mac is a long, tall, true-as-steel cadet who is popular with his fellows, never has any trouble getting dates at good old G. C. VV., watches for his mail with intensity, knows his military, usually has the right answer ill classes, and manages to get a whole lot of joy out of living. ROBERT L. MITCHELL Charleston, W. Va. Mitch left us after Christmas. We didn't want him to go, but sometimes things break that way. He left without handing in his senior honors, but we can assure you that he had them. Mitch was a member of the Student Council. He was always interested in student activities, and numbered his friends by the score. WILLIAM JOHN MOORE Lewisburg, VV. Va. dlilitary: Corporal, Company D, 1929-30-31, Sergeant, Company C, 1931-32Q Second Lieutenant, Company C, l935- 33- Alhlzlius Midget Football, 1929-325 Colonel Football, 1932-33, Assistant Manager, Track, l93I-32, Manager, Tr k 1 2- '. acOrgfiJ1iiza:iion.1: Non-Commissioned Olhcers Club, 19:9-32g Commissioned Oflicers Club, 1932-335 Great Lovers Clubg Cliislers Club, Lacy Literary Society, 1929-33. Johnny is a hard man to stop when he gets a football under his arm. Plenty of Midget and Colonel opponents have found that out during the past few years. Last year he could have starred easily on the Midgets, but he preferred to play on the next higher team, and he gave a fine account of himself in the backfield, Johnny hails from Lewisburg, as you might guess. The fact that he is the president's son hasn't kept him from taking the hard kll0CkS along with the rest of the fellows, and no one is more popular with the cadets than this grinning fellow with the mussed up hair. Pardon us! We forgot that johnny is in love. Ah, love! And since that happy fall, his hair is always carefully slicked down so that he looks like Robert Montgomery himself. Johnny's favorite poems all deal with a girl named-you guess, it shouldn't be diflicult. . J. VVILLIAM NEIDHART McKeesport, Pa. Mililzzrys Private, Company B, 1930-313 Corporal, Company C, 1931-31, First Sergeant, Company B, 1932-33. .4lhl1'tir.r: Archery, 1930-329 Boxing Squad, 1932-33, Assistant Manager, Track, 1931-33.

He draws cartoo11s. He helps manage the track a11d field athletes. He boxes like Firpo. He sits around in the yard across the street and reads magazines. He is one of those hard-boiled sergeants. Hep-two-three-FO'l And when someone drops a rifle- Nice going in there! But he really isn't so tough, when' you know him. He laughs at everything, and has a jolly good time. He is another good student who should make a fine record in college. VVe expect to hear fine things of Neidy when he reaches the collegiate cloisters pale.

This lceydet is from old Kentucky, where the horses are fast, the women are pretty, and beer has taken the place of wine. And is he proud of the old home state! just mention the fact that murders sometimes occur there--the newspapers are all liars! That's the spirit, Parksy- we don't blame you for standing up for the old Blue Grass section. He is the Keeper of the Keys to the clinic, and it is to him we pray for our daily portions of grub when we are in the inhrmary. Some day he will be either a big Navy man or a big doctor-maybe both. -if 17 fif-
