Private, Headquarters Company, '28-'29,' First Class Cadet Private, Headquarters Company, '29,' Good Conduct Ribbon, '28, Military Merit Ribbon, '28g King Club. College: Michigan. Cal hails from Jamestown from whence he came to give us but one short year of his life as a trumpet player in the band. He first gained distinction by his academic skill and the coveted red and black honor cord was seen on his shoulders for the greater part of the year. Since he has been with us he has gained many friends and we have found him to be a prince among good fellows. Next year he is going to Michigan where we know he will succeed if he will only keep up the good work that he did while here. nuxcn-. wrfkuv YVILLIAM WALLACE CAMERON-t'Seotty Bloomfield, N. J.

Didn't he gather for himself a few medals and shields, even including one of the rare and almost extinct sort known as the Good Conduct Ribbon? Enough said, In addition to all this, he was one of A Company's star athletes and ruined many a hope for a home run in deep center field. Scotty finished as a corporal and it is too bad that there are not more of his caliber about the campus.

Red came to us from Portland, which town he maintained was the hest on earth and the most progressive in spite of its nearness to the tall timber. He never told us where he got the scarlet locks or why he received so many letters. Although torn hetween love of home and his boat, he managed to study a hit, playa hit and he an all-around good fellow most of the time. Red liked the latest dance tune and wherever a snappy lox-trot could he heard, there also could be found Red, telling of his wild, woolly and wicked experiences in clear old l'ortland.

Bush was with us for just one short year and we wish we could see more of him, hut he has graduated and gone. He played his part in company athletics, but spent most of his time on his studies so that he can go to Michigan next fall to take up aeronautical engineering. He seems to eat up math so we look forward to his ultimate success in that line. XVhen he wasn't playing French horn he had the pleasant habit of amusing the boys with his endless stock of funny stories.

Private, Company A , '27-'Z8,' First Class Private, Company A , '28-'Z9,' Corporal, Company A , 'Z9,' Athletic Merit Ribbong Company Soccer Team, '27-'28-'Z9,' Company Speedball Team, '27-'28-'29,' Com- pany Tennis Teamq Camera Club,' King Club: Plattsburg C.M. T. C., 'Z9. College: Wesleyan, Conn. Bob first came to Manlius in '27 and was assigned to Company A where he was one of the hardest working members of that organiza- tion, always trying his best to carry his share of the load. He always seemed to be trying to improve himself and his efforts were noticeable as may be seen from the fact that he was in the finals of the Hunt Manual Competition. He was always good natured and, even if things seemed to go wrong, he still had a smile and a cheery word for everyone. Bob was terri- bly absentminded and was apt most any time to go to drill or parade minus his bayonet or even his rifle. More boys of his make-up and caliber are welcome here at Manlius. S43 ALBERT EDWARD CLARKE, JR.- Clarkey New York City Private, Headquarters Company, '27-'28, First Class Private, Head- quarters Company, '28-'Z9,' Academic Merit Ribbon, 'Z9,' First Honors in French II,' Hadley Hall Football Team, '28, Junior Football Team, '28,' Company Baseball Team, 'Z8,' Music Club: First Honors, French 111, '29, King Club. College: Yale. The career of this modest and amiable young man with us has been one of which he may well be proud. In two short years he has acquired for himself the distinction of being a Fine student, a fair athlete, a soldier and a gentleman. C1arkey was an exceptional student all through his brief sojourn at Manlius. His marks were always above average and the red and black honor cord graced his shoulders not a little during the school year. Despite the fact that he placed studies and music above all else, he managed to make quite a name for himself on both the Company football and baseball teams, and he was quite a prominent member of the Music Club. He has proved to us that he is extremely conscientious on his trombone and in whatever else he attempts. As he is leaving us now, we gaze back at his record, pass approval on it as being most satisfactory, and predict great things for him in life after he has left our midst in search of higher education at Yale. Good luck, Old Boy.
