, ,N , y .Silky , . ,Q f fm v , 2, ,,, Bill Sullivan, known to all of us as Silky, is probably the quietest senior engineer from the Waterville area in Maine Maritime Academy's history. This factor, however, does not have any effect on his expert knowledge of engineering. Silky was always considered a human text book or an Osbornes on feet. His opinion was voiced frequently and was respected by both fellow students and faculty alike. There was never a question that Silky couldnit answer or find the answer to. One of Silkyis greatest pastimes was raising bird-dogs and putting his training to use by clearing the skies of those winged creatures. His love for dogs was clearly evident quite a few nights by strange howls heard coming from the senior dorms. With imitations like those, Silk, who needs dogs? If there is any of us most likely to succeed, it will probably be Silky Sullivan. Certainly a future Chief, is in the making here. Best Wishes in the future, Silk, we think youire great. 294 WILLIAM A. 'SULLIVAN Waterville, Maine Prop Club 4 f S ,Rifle Club 3

PETER THIBEAU Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4 Football 1 Basketball 1 P.O. 1!c 3 Gurdon 4 Prop Club 3, 4 Intramurals 3, 4 it Pete, Thib Bangor, Maine RA, K f'N Pete was one of the hardest workers in the class when it came to a job to be done, but on weekends it was a different story., Seldom was Pete found around' campus on liberty days. Most of the time, so we are told, he headed North for the great Eastern Maine Ceeneral Hospital for a chat with a pretty nurse. 4 At the Academy, Thib was a standout pitcher for the varsity bball- club and usually cheated his opponents out of many potential hits with his lightning speed fast-balls and his slow breaking curves. Pete always got good grades, perhaps one of the reasons why he was such a top practical engineerr Allwork and no play though, was against Pete's way so a cup of black coffee and a finger on each Hipper served to occupy his free time. Besides his ability, wit and sportsmanship, he will also be re- membered as one of the best rates our class had seen. Good luck and smooth sailing to a fine classmate. 295
