Since freshman year he has proven himself excellent in both the fields of study and athletics. George has done a great deal for the class basketball team, with his well used height. He is well liked by his fellow classmates and Brothers alike. George also rates high in the social world outside of school. There aren't many activities which George hasn't taken part in. He is a likely candidate for college, which is his main ambi- tion. The urge to travel, however, is beginning to hit George, and don't be surprised if he sees the world as a Leatherneck first. 1947
