Beverly, Mass a wi.: -. Sw, Chuck could be called by some as the 'ideal roomatef He was very quiet while sleeping, which was most of the time, humorous when thoroughly awake, and very noisy when he would get up at 3 or 4 A.M. to study. The Gopher was very marriage minded till his senior year at the Academy when he received a Dear john letter from his one and only which seemed to change his whole outlook on life. Since then he has had some fun Cfor a changel and started by 'letting loose' with his fun loving roommate down at Thomaston. Chuck has been very liberal with his philosophy of life and dry humor and is very well known among the Ollicers and Middies for it. It seems as if every time he opens his mouth he puts his foot in it. This attitude has gotten him into quite a few jams both at home and at school but he has always come out smelling like roses. This luck he possesses as well as his wide knowledge of the engineering field we are sure will carry him through to become a top engineer and an asset to his classmates as well as the school. Best of luck and smooth sailing from the Class of '66, Chuck. 262 ROGER E. MERCALDI IR Chuck, Gopher Band 1, 2 Rowing 1 2

He was unquestionably, the greatest lover in our class of many Casanovas as was proven to us so many times by his unexcelled choices of female companionships. Pat had a different girl for every day of the week. A girl fin every portv was his motto and he seems to be living up to his word. Speaking about words, nobody had a bad Word for Pat, as he had a heart of gold and is one guy who would give a person the shirt right off his back, friend or foe. Pat was one who never had to go looking for agood time because Where he went, so went the action. ' When it came to engineering, Pat was tops. In the words of the Chief Engineer He?s one of the best engineers we've gotn and We're sure that there is not one Middie who Would state differently. We are all sure that with his drive and determination, Pat Will go forth into the world of industry and become a prominent asset, not only to the Academy, but also to any company he chooses to represent. Good Luck, Pat. 261
