With your ambition and desire, Tom, we are sure that you will be a success and wish you all the happiness that you deserve. 227

Brillo Yacht Club 3, 4 C Co. Commander 4 5 Brian, during his mug year, was a hard man to please. First he wanted to come to Maine Maritime Academy and then he couldn't wait for the weekends to get out. When he came back from the weekends, he said he would never go home again. This straightened out after a while and he became entrenched with the operation and maintenance of the many small boats of the Academy. He also got hold of a movable junk pile which was painted green that brought him to the Hall of Fame of Edsel owners. His latest endeavor is with a crashed airplane engine that he probably plans to install in a balloon. Brian is a good liberty buddy, a good friend, and a swell class- mate, as well as being a Iine engineer, and certainly will be a credit to us and the Maine Maritime Academy. 226 BRIAN G.

A military man from way back, Mr, Boycev could always be depended on to work out a solution for anybody's problem. As Commander of the Second Battalion during his senior year, Peter maintained one of the tautest ships the school has seen in years. Peter's greatest asset is his vast knowledge of all types of practical matters. This was borne out by his keenness in the room not to mention his rebuilding project on the pride of the Castine fleet, Trixie. Peter's only weaknesses were his great pride in his home state and the product of Wide ffrack Town. We wish the best of luck to a fine person with sure success. 228
