BRUCE ANTHONY YORK Rudy 3 ACUSHNET ROAD MATTAPOISETT, MASSACHUSETTS The Picasso of the Piston, the Tolstoi of the Turbine, the Cervantes of the Cylinder, need I go on? Sarge , his nickname obviously derived, came dragging into the academy and has been burning up the engineering track ever since. He is undoubtedly one of the best snipes to go through the school and certainly was a valuable aid in getting the Bay State on its feet — I mean keel. His engineering compedence earned him the highly competitive title of three striper and he soon realized people could not be made to run as smoothly as machin- ery. With this experience under his belt now, matters outside of engines should be much easier to over haul.
