WILLIAM TERRELL CORN Cleveland, Tenn. Bill was one of our quiet, well-liked seniors this year. He was never loud or showy, but his influence could be felt at all times. Bill won a varsity letter for his excellent performances in the swim meets. In addition, he participated in intramural and J. V. sports, playing for the J. V. football team his junior year. Though never a real star, he was a tough competitor, and always a true sportsman. As a re- sult, he was respected by all who knew him. Bill's quiet, likeable personality, and his dependable character should make him popular and respected in later life. Corporal, Company B-Varsity Swim- ming, and Intramural Sports. NORMAN BRASHEAR CRUTCHER Valley Station, Ky. Crutch is one of the big wolves from a small town. If you want info of the weaker sex just ask dirty Norm. Also he was pretty good when it came to athletics as he was one of the gal- loping men of the backfield. He was pretty good in almost everything he tried no matter what it was, you name it he did it. When it came to studies he was one of the boys but he is now a full-fledged alumnus with a fine fu- ture ahead. In closing we might add he wasn't always in D Company, but you can't say he didn't try and we wish him all the luck possible. Company A - Second Lieutenant: Distinguished Military Bar: Rifle Marksmanship Medal: Varsity Football: K4Club, and Track. JOHN PIERSON ENGBERG. Bradenton. Fla. Four years ago Perk came to this school-the silent, athletic type. How- ever. he didn't stop at sports but hit the studies and earned an all-round classification. He left us for a year, but came back this year to graduate and make a good show for himself in sports. On the basketball floor the cool and remarkable playing of Perk, who showed the value of teamwork, was some of the best which has been seen at K. M. I.

ERICKSON Columbus, Ind. John K. is another one of those out- of-door fellows. In any spare time we can always find him on the athletic field. On the rainy days we find him, where else but in the gym, with a bas- ketball. The fellows that play with him tell us he is hard to beat, and when he plays he is really in the Same. He also shows his ability in drilling as well as in athletics. With this combination of ability and per- sonality, we should always find John K. out front.
