' g 72.x..y ....... 2- n': CIMPN Y H PLatunn I A-Zl is a real cross-section of Battalion A Every group that was in the Navy before last March is seemingly represented. There are men from Iowa State, Oberlin, University of Michigan, Great Lakes and some of the V-S men that were such a rarity during the Novem- ber term. Although A-21 didn't do so well in basketball and baseball, a large share of the talent for the Hsmoker was taken from this platoon and it will be a long time before the Hsmoker wilt ever be forgotten. Thus, A-Zl displays its talents in fields where others do not tread. 323$... E IATT xxxxxxxxxxxmwmwm LINI PLatuun II This is A-ZZ! Practicing dashes in the hall is Bob Swain.
