During his two years at Manlius jack lived a crowded and busy life, honoring with his attentions almost every phase of our varied and interesting activities. 'lt was a real pleasure to sleep during chapel exercises which were managed so smoothly as his always were. ' Only four times in two years did he ever see himself listed for the School Room and we have often suspected that this was only because he wanted the experience , found he didn't care for it and never went there any more! With the dynamic energy which he has always shown neither he nor we will ever doubt the achievement of his ambition. 6569 LAURENCE A. BERGHASH- Lauryn Rochester, N. Y.

I For two years no one has been able to solve the mystery that lies behind that A of his middle name, in spite of cajoling and threats he refuses to tell what it stands for although we have suspected every- thing from Aloyisius to Aristophanes. It might be Active, Able, Ambitious, Aggressive, Acceptable or Astute and Ht him nicely. Laury is a man of many line qualities although not all of them begin with A . Life with him was not so serious a matter as with some of us, he took it as it came and generally it treated him well. Next year he will join the numerous Manlius contingent at Wharton and we have little fear of his success in those congenial surroundings.

CModel Soldier, 'Company Andy leads the class on all alphabetical lists and makes a strong bid to lead it in other lines as well. His cheerful grin reflected his happy disposition and his sartorial perfection was continuous and worthy of emulation. He was one of Earl's best customers for Dyanshine and when turned out for inspection he seldom pulled a skin . Popular with Kaydets, faculty and the ladies, his stay with us was all too short. He goes to Dartmouth next year with the assurance of further successes. HAROLD GEORGE BACK- Backie Lowville, N. Y. Private, Hq.

Backie was one of those rare characters who consistently and unvary- ingly attended strictly to his own business 'to the complete exclusion of all ulterior interests and activities. I His own .business appeared to be the gradual but steady accumulation of credlts in the academic department and the making of life miserable for the rest of us about 6:45 A.M. by never failing to sound'reve1lle and school call when we most wanted to sleep or do something else. Like most .good TTXUSI- cians, he hailed from Lowville and We hope that melodious village will send us others in the future as cheerful, efficient and talented as .- ., . - : .- . I- - 1, .

Bickie came to Manlius about the time that the Armistice was signed. In those far off days he weighed ninety pounds and was known famil- iarly as The Loving Dumb-bell . And now look at the big brute! He tips the scales at 190 and perhaps has more hard common sense than any man in School. He has learned to plod along, always getting forward, taking his own sweet time and accomplishing his various aims one way or another, craftily getting around all obstacles or pushing them over by main force. He early de- veloped two objectives and he finally reached them both, the captaincy of the football team and the captaincy of B Company. His leadership in both has amply proven his abilities. He was voted the most popular man in the Class and his record at Manlius has been one in which every Johnny has taken pride and interest. We only hope that E Company today harbours others of his ilk. fide? MORTON SEARS BUSICK1tiN'igg6V Baltimore, Md. Huntington Literary Society.

Mort arrived at Manlius three years ago, following on the heels of his well known older brother Nels. Like Nels he came rapidly to the front and kept the job of Top Kick of A Company in the family. He has run the company in a highly efficient manner this year as witness the fact that they won the Comp under the combined leadership of Nigger and his pulchritudinous room-mate Phoebe Frost. He nearly disrupted things around here when he returned from Easter vacation wearing a derby but the offending article was quickly given its just deserts by his many friends and admirers. Being a Latin shark he is going to brave the classical halls of Amherst next year and he carries with him the best wishes and hopes of a host of warm friends among the kaydet people.
