Chr. 4 Castine A-Go-Go Weekend Com. 4 Homecoming Committee 3, 4 Literary Editor Tricks End 4 .ff 1 ' ' . , :q , v .. q t, fu, A c r1 n Peter M. Newton is a name not to be sneezed at. This young man has achieved the most spectacular firsts of any at this Academy. Who else do you know that has lost a rate twice and gotten it back for a third time, or has meticulously constructed a beauteous ilirtation walk which never was used or went A.W.O.L. and risked a career just to see a sweetheart who wasn,t waiting after all? One can feel only sympathy for Pete. His car faithfully served the Mass. raiders for three years and finally died of a broken block. Sit down and listen to Pete. He's a story teller by nature, but his stories are true and they'll make you want to become a part of them. Let him tell you of his exploits around the countryside of Maine, or of his weekends at the Cape, and you'll know what we mean. His wit and infectious laughter are a Wonderful uplift to the drudgery of a military academy. His drive and determination have placed him number one in the list of Academy greats. His undying devotion and his inability to turn down a plea for help are only a few of his many leadership qualities. His earnestness and desire to do the best possible, will carry with him throughout life insuring him a great success. Peter, the Class of '66 will always proudly be behind you. 270

RICHARD M. N EWBEGIN Superintendenfs List 1, 2, 3, 4 Intramurals 1, 2, 3, Rowing 3 The Berries Castine, Maine 23 Dick was always one of the intellects of our class as was clearly evident by noticing his name consistently on the top of the Super- intendent's list each time it came out. Dick was very aggressive in anything he did. Whatever he did, whether it be studying or swooning his many girlfrien s, he always put his heart into it. He was also known for his ability to pull an oar for our famous rowing team which gained its fame all over the U.S. with its consistent wins over all the other Academies. Dick was a member of the starting crew and could pull that oar as good if not better than the best of them. Weight-lifting on the cruises was his secret we bet! W , Dick was a good roommate to study with. When the time came, he would always be there to put in many long hours of concentrated effort. Whether it be burning the midnight oil or relying on the pre-rev list, Dick was always one to complete an assignment. It is evident to us that Dick is an exceptional practical engineer as well as a top notch theory student and with these attributes along with his drive we are certain that success will iill his future plans. 269
