REDMAN 16 Ledyard Street Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts Red Battalion Adj., Shellback, Bluenose, Muster Staff, Chaos Committee, Rifle Club. What manner of creature is this? A body covered with down and a method of locomotion unlike any we have ever seen. This was Red. The wise old sage of the Submarine Service had come to see what the top of the sea looked like. Red quickly settled down to the routine of academy life and was rewarded in his last year with the Big Three. This was a boon to the class because now we could always get the straight dope on what was going on upstairs. Aside from his ability to spin yarns, the Vulch has proven himself an able seaman. We know that this, coupled with his lighten- ing wit and instantaneous reflexes, will make him a fine Merchie officer. JOHN WILSON DOHERTY, JR. 47 Eastbourne Street Roslindale, Massachusetts Dorrah Battalion Commander, Commander Honor Guard, Gull Society, Birdland Lounge Pres., Shellback, Muster Staff. Square Jack, the lady killer was des- tined to wear the big four, for our last year at the academy, from the day he stepped aboard. In this position he has set quite a course for the following year ' s four stripers to steer. Jackson may be best remembered for his performance as Master of Ceremonies for the Birdland Lounge , on our final training cruise. We feel certain that Jack will rise to the top in whatever occupation that he goes into after school and all we can say is smooth sailing, Jack. 24 EDWARD TIMONEY 11 Clayton Street Watertown, Massachusetts Tim Honor Guard, Ring Committee, Ring Dance Comm. Cadet Lieutenant, Muster Staff, Shellback. On THAT day, 3 years ago, a young man walked through our portals followed by three bearers carrying pies, potato chips and crescent wrenches, respectively. Although thoroughly versed on the theo- ries of Reno King, when the time came, Ed decided to breach new horizons through a sextant. Despite the handicap of work gloves and starched work shirts, Tim was awarded the big two in Navy Division. No matter which is first, Navy or the Merchie, we know as long as M is above G you ' ll never be far from Tipping. RICHARD CHARLES TAUTKUS 63 Spruce Street Abington, Massachusetts Rat Cadet Lieutenant, Honor Guard, Chairman of Ring Comm., Muster Staff, St. Lucia Jail, Shellback. Meekly prancing through the hallowed gates of MMA came Dick dragging a long pair of apron strings. It was not long be- fore he officially became known as the Rat, and settling down to the normal routine of the Academy, he was soon found attracting the attention of the upper jobs. A tempo- rary stinger was felt by Dick during the first term, but it was soon overcome and he went to the head of the class. During the second class cruise the Rat made some radi- cal changes and left his boyhood ideas for those of a man. He was always making new friends that still can be found in some of the leading hotels in Castries and in those overlooking the Panama Canal. Dick will never forget those friends. Many of the leisure hours away from the academy were spent in the Hingham Social life, only to be distracted by the Call of the Wild. He could always be relied upon for one of his exciting experi- ences in the forest. PAUL DENNIS HENNIGAN 71 Capen Street Milton 87, Massachusetts Digger Cadet Lieutenant, Ring Dance Chairman, Muster Staff, Neivman Club, Sailing Club, Shellback. Coming to us from an illustrious career of laying the poor departed to rest, Digger immediately dug into his youngie year with enthusiasm. Not one to take abuse, he was always fighting for his rights, especially those concerning filling his stomach. Emerging as a class leader, he organized many of our class social functions, being rewarded for many jobs, well done, with two stripes in watch II. He kept his engine room shiny as his nose and the smile on his face. Being a barber, he found the short cut through the chain of command and solved many problems in rapid fashion. To Paul we wish smooth sailing on his yacht, a full plate, and a reward ing career in whatever he chooses. MICHAEL H. DENNIS 8 Colliston Road Brighton, Massachusetts Mike Circle K President, Muster Staff, Chaos Committee, Birdland Lounge, Horizontal Club, Gull Society. Good morning, everybody. It ' s good to be alive, isn ' t it? Yes, the most cheerful and affable member of our class had risen to a new day with his customary good humor. With a kind word for most, the terror of the Coast Guard was never with- out a comment for all. His nautical prowess soon elevated Mike to become the father, mother, sun, and moon to those fortunate enough to come under his command in Happy Valley . His next stint in the Coast Guard should be an active one and we hope this time it will be longer than six months. 26 DAVID L. HOWES Whig Street Dennis, Massachusetts Bogger Cadet Lieutenant, Shellback, Gull Society, Track Team, Horizontal Club. What ' s that strange rig across the canal, A breeches bouy? Yes, it ' s the Bogger escaping from the Cod Island Republic to join the mainlanders at the maritime acad- emy. Dave came aboard armed with a lob- ster license, a quick wit, and a great desire for a set of beach gear. Dave ' s great respect for authority and undying devotion to duty won him top hon- ors as supervised life boat lowerer when it came time for the honors to be handed out. We know that with this great experi- ence and his great ability, Dave will rise to great heights in the maritime field. LEONARD ARTHUR CAIGER 93 Baker Street West Roxbury, Mass. Spooky Cadet Lieutenant, Birdland Lounge, Muster Staff, Band, Shellback, P.H. Folly. Eighty-six — the Bay State is haunted ! This was the cry that echoed to the depths of the Bay State when Lazarus arrived on board. Since that date, there have been few pieces of machinery aboard that have escaped the prying searches of his inquisi- tive hands. A very industrious person, Fritz was awarded two stripes and the position of leader in the P-H Folly. His artwork in this year ' s Muster is a source of amusement to all and embarrassment to some — as a glance through the yearbook will prove. Lenny enjoys life to the fullest; from his notorious sorties to and from the academy on weekends, to the annual cruises when he could always be found Spooking the Chinamen in the laundry. With his sharp engineering knowledge — and sharper pen — he will go far in his sea- going career. 27 JAMES JOSEPH MOONEY, JR. 80 Tyndale Street Roslindale, Massachusetts Reverend Cadet Lieutenant, Newman Club, Football Manager, 20-20 Club, Shellback. At the beginning of our youngie year Jimmy could never be found when wanted for some menial chore. It wasn ' t until the cruise, when he became a permanent mem- ber of the galley staff, that we discovered he was still with us. It was during our second job year that the Reverend emerged as the leader of our spiritual life. As President of the Newman Club, he was forever trying to have us follow his example and return to the ways of the Lord. Not one to waste words, Jim managed to spend as little time as possible on the Bay State , claiming better opportunities for study at home. Nontheless, we wish Jim a rewarding future. WALLACE K. BARTLETT 83 Church Street Mansfield, Massachusetts Bart Football Co-capt, Shellback, Cadet Lieuten- ant, Muster Staff, P.M. Aquatic Club, Night Riders. The only man to enter the academy from a height of 40,000 feet, Bart dived complete with football uniform and chute. Outstanding athletic ability awarded Crescent half ownership in the football team. This plus two stripes in God ' s Little Acre , kept our boy busy. An avid member of the Pen-Pals Incorporated, Bart was usually good for a one-night stand. Not one to remain idle on weekends (when he didn ' t have the duty), Wally en- rolled in extension courses in teaching and nursing. Whether to choose a Baker-Nunn camera, or a Plath Sextant is the big decision now. In time the answer will come, and along with it best wishes for a prosperous future. 28 JOHN H. CASHMAN lA Prairie Street West Concord, Massachusetts Angles Cadet Ensign, Muster, Horizontal Club. From the green tables of West Concord High came the boy with all the angles. Jack ' s first outstanding feat during his stay here was to read a book. Not just any old book, but the book. Shortly thereafter, during our second class cruise, the theories of this epistle were put into action. Success- ful they were ! Even to the extent of a stripe in 3rd Division for his efforts. However, all good things must come to an end, and this ran true to form. A born talker and firm believer in the principles of Maverick, we feel Jack will fill any inside straight that heads his way. i3 ARVID FRANK SUNDQUIST 18 Marion Street Hingham, Massachusetts Harpo Cadet Ensign, Baseball Manager, Shellback, Horizontal Club, Night Rider, 20-20 Club. Blazing out of Hingham on his cycle, averaging 85 MPH, came the only veteran hat-man of our class, Arvid War Story Sundquist. Jimmy, Mario, and George were his idols, from whom he gained his great quality to carry out what he says he ' s going to do. Squeaking through his first two years he almost stumbled on a high hurdled Naval Science course in his final year, but he blazed across the finish line. His numerous companions included one whose head was run over by a steam roller, Miss Freon 12, one who is only known by the shooting down of a lamp shade, and finally Miss Southern Charm, who has con- verted Harpo to the Biloxi Bombers. We wish Harpo all the luck in the world with his first job on the Delta Lines sailing out of OLD MISS. 29 I. ERNEST SCOTT DEWIS 971 Worcester Road Natick, Massachusetts Sweat Cadet Ensign, Honor Guard, Circle K Vice- President, Shellback, Alpine Club. Jovially bouncing up the gangway one ominous August morning, came our boy Ernie, ready to tame the world and twice as wild. Hard working and industrious, he loved a little fun. After straightening out a few cases of mistaken identity, from which he emerged unscared (almost), he spent most of his time telling us about those cruises — especially the one to the islands. Ernie was never one to sluff off on the books though, and we can remember many a night when he was boning up on the old Ships Co. and Navsci. But all ' s well that ends well, and with your smiling disposition Ernie, you are bound for the top. MICHAEL G. SWEENEY 140 Cottage Park Road Winthrop, Massachusetts Nebbish Cadet Ensign, Rifle Club President, Ring Committee, Chaos Committee, Muster Staff, Circle K. Forsooth, a dragon cometh! In the guise of a Nebbish, Miguel Swenya — Terror of the Pampas and famous Latin Lover — appeared at our doorstep. Undaunted by his slow start, Mike soon proved his worth. Favorably endowed with a fine sense of rhythm, though a little off in his timing, Sweens nonetheless managed to come out on top, and for his efforts, was rewarded with one stripe and the custody of the Ship ' s Mascots. We feel sure that in the years to come, our rolly-polly Apollo with his navigational prowess, will never go down at sea. 30 PAUL RICHARD LOPES 250 Shaw Road Fairhaven, Massachusetts Chico Cadet Ensign, Cross Country Captain, Des- peration Quartet, Circle K, Ring Dance Committee, Shellback. After a brief swim, our boy Paul arrived aboard the Bay State with gloves, sweat socks, and some strange ideas. Many of us owe much to his capable hands, for without them justice would have prevailed. Chico wasted no time after taps, and was soon noticed as a very able seaman. True recognition came when Paul was selected for a stripe. It was well deserved, at least according to his classmates. To Paul we wish the best of luck, but with his unusual abilities, we doubt that he ' ll need it. ROBERT BRUCE CHEYNE 230 Main Street Foxboro, Massachusetts Tiger Cadet Ensign, Band, Bowling, Alpine Club, Shellback. Meow ! Out of the wilds of Foxboro comes the cry of tiger, the self -supposed terror of his third class subordinates. Reporting on board back in August of ' 59, Bob was bound and determined to be a good youngie. Never having been to Europe, Bob looked forward to his youngie cruise as an educational and cultural experience. Yes, he learned many things, ranging from exotic Spanish dances in Valencia, to how to fight Roman traffic on a motor bike. But of all his cruises, this year ' s proved to be the most interesting to him; St. Lucia no doubt stands foremost in his mind. Who knows, we may find Old Clapper Cat right back down there after graduation. Well, whatever he does, we wish him the best of luck and know that our cadet ensign and steam martinet will be as beloved by his superiors, peers, and subordinates in any future service he chances. 31 WILLIAM MICHAEL MALLETT 27 Mountain Avenue Melrose, Massachusetts Duck Cadet Ensign, Chaos Committee, Football, Circle K, Muster Staff, Ring Committee. Winging his way South, as all good ducks do each fall. Bill landed on the decks of the Bay State and decided to pleasure-cruise it for a while. Not all was pleasure-cruising for our web footed friend, but he soon main- tained his study average at a respectful level, and through hard work and perse- verance, found himself the owner of one stripe. Among his many outstanding traits, there is the one which is known and beloved by all. This infamous characteristic has en- abled Bill to put a finishing touch on any topic held forth for discussion. The main topics of Bill ' s discourses were concerned with Religion, politics, and other subjects dear to his heart. The Duck always had the show stopper whether in phraseology or songwriting. A personable young man and a staunch seaman, his classmates wish him the best of luck, but with his lifelong friend, L W. Harper, we are all sure that he will succeed. RALPH D. WARREN 1 Pickering Street Salem, Massachusetts Spike Cadet Ensign, Circle K, Muster Staff, Shell- back, Baseball, Football (Manager), Phi ReKappa Tread. One of the more quiet and studious mem- bers of the class, Spike ' s knack for manage- ment has been proven time and time again. He even managed to get accepted to the exclusive Phi ReKappa Tread Fraternity. In our first class year. Spike was given the honor of becoming the first Athletic Squad Cadet Officer. Along with the newly formed Athletic Board, Spike did a com- mendable job under the circumstances. Only once did our boy deviate from the straight and narrow. However, thanks to the timely arrival of the Bunny Bread man, justice — in a sense — prevailed. Good luck in the future, Spike, be it a farm in Kalamazoo or flight school at Pensacola. CARL EARLE HINDLE 113 Reed Road Westport, Massachusetts Carl Baseball, Football, Horizontal Club, Weight- lifting Club, Band (Master). Like a bull moose after the spring thaw, Carl entered the academy with one thought, Do or Die! With sax in hand he soon rose to become the leader of the illustrious band. Although we didn ' t quite measure up to the standards of the Alantis, Carl could often be heard expounding on the virtues of MMA whether walking or sleeping. Carl proved himself invaluable to his class in many of our ports of call and we know he will do the same, be it the Merchies or the Navy. Go get ' em, Bambi. THOMAS REYNOLDS AYLESBURY 44 Howard Road Medford, Massachusetts Terrific Football, Baseball, 20-20 Club, Horizontal Club, Newman Club, Shellback. The little toy soldier strutted onto our parade grounds that fateful day, straight from the campus of his many prep schools. It didn ' t take him too long to find the deals and shortcuts in our third class year. Tom ' s athletic ability also favored him in the eyes of the first-classmen and he found himself with extra liberties. When it came time for us to depart on our cruises, we found that Tom had some strings at- tached to the dock that were pretty hard to part from ; those cruises never went too fast for him. Now, however, we are getting ready for our C.G. exams, and Tom is very busy pre- paring for the future. We all know, no mat- ter what Tom decides to take, his Ipana smile and perseverance should pull him and the strings through to the best things possible. 33 ELLSWORTH J. BROWN 43 Deerborn Avenue Hampton, New Hampshire Butch Century Club President, Shellback, Aquatic Club, Football, Night Riders, Sunday Ses- sion Club. Roaring its way from Hampton to Hank ' s, and Hank ' s to the Gulch, the Green Hor- net screeched to a halt at the foot of the gangway. Amidst the rattle of empty Knicks appeared a Rodentia Extraordi- naire. Gnawing his way through several terms of classes. Butch finally emerged at the top of the class in both marks and demerits. Quick as lightning and elusive as a mouse being chased by a cat, he proved that even with a shortage of toes, he could still play football. With his agile mind and vast navigational knowledge, he is sure to become a success. We all hope that complacency doesn ' t over- take him before his prevailing good luck does. PAUL HOWARD CASSIDY 127 Woodlawn Street Everett, Massachusetts Dyma Football, Neivman Club, Horizontal Club, Buffalo AC, Demolition Team, Saint Lucia Jail. A noisy question and answer period for MMA began when Baby Huey arrived. Sta- tistics flowed from the Baby Megaphone, no facts were too obscure to long stay unquoted by the Everett Quiz Kid. Pace yourself, slow down, kid. this be- ing Dyma ' s philosophy of life, made him the happiest, most carefree member of our class. A born leader, Paul was always first in the chow line or in the sack. Huey took great delight in talking of his future round-the-world cruise in the Val- halla; his plans and ideas of picketing any- thing, anywhere; and his cruise highlight, the Castries Jail Affair. Facts and figures made a television ap- pearance at Faneuil Hall and would have said a few words for the presidential can- didate, JFK, until he remembered that it was a school night. Although Paul couldn ' t make good his TV debut, we feel sure that our boisterous friend will make himself well heard wherever he goes. THOMAS J. BYRNE 2 Knoll Road Lynnfield, Massachusetts Nutsy Horizontal Club VP, S.S.S.S., Shellback, Night Riders, Rifle Club, Football. But sir, I ' m on the binnacle list. Upon uttering these words, well rehearsed, our keeper of the Z ' s would fall back on his pil- low, out like a light, much to the dismay of the assistant officer in charge of the front porch. Thanks to the invention of the Baker ' s Cyst, Tom ' s hands were unmarred by blis- ters or callouses. Dividing his free time between New Bed- ford and Marshfield. Nutsy became a famil- iar sight on the highways astride one of his numerous White Horses. Be it the Sea or further studies into the vagaries of medicine, we all wish the best of luck to the person most capable of filling a whole room full of upper cuts. r- i JAMES RICHARD CAVANAUGH 1485 River Street Hyde Park, Massachusetts Turtle Newman Club, Football, Labby ' s Brigade, Horizontal Club, 20-20 Club Shellback. Turtle, alias Cav, came to us from the swamp regions of Hyde Park. Cav was soon enlisted in Harry ' s Navy, where he received his first practical course in engineering — that of being a preheater. Jim ' s work capa- city was cut short in his second class year due to a crack in his shell. Recovering in time for the cruise, Turtle showed us just how fast our shellbacked friends can move in social circles. Never taking part in arguments or dis- putes, he can always be found behind the scenes. A very active member of Bing ' s Boys, Tortuga could usually be found in the horizontal position, or on liberty. We wish Casanova Cav luck in the future and we know he ' ll go far, whether it ' s on a BOAC or a BOAT. 35 JAMES LEO DOLAN 21 Sheehan Road Lynn, Massachusetts Jim Newman Club, Honor Guard, Birdland Lounge, Horizontal Club, Shellback, Alpine Club. From Jim ' s first day, he could not resist the urge to keep his classmates in humor, especially after taps at the expense of a select few. Jim had been around before we left on our first cruise and even for him it was a new and unique experience. Fortunately, during our second cruise, Jim added his talents to the already overcrowded laundry just to help his pal, Doug. Time seems to fly while one works, so before Jim knew it, all that was left to do was to go home. It ' s not that Jim liked work, he just spent all his time avoiding it. We are sure Jim will be successful with his ready wit and tireless energy. JAMES CAMPBELL 34 Warren Avenue Marshfield, Massachusetts Jim Football Co-capt, Chaos Committee, Weight- lifting Team, Night Riders, P.M. Aquatic Club, Century Club. The Clan Campbell ' s contribution to MMA arrived in a Cohasset lobster dory, and we quickly became aware of his presence, both on the gridiron and in the classroom. Soupy was not one to take any gas from anyone, and soon proved he could dish out his share when the spirits moved him. His aggressive spirit proved him to be a useful man on liberty, and was to a large measure the reason for his being selected to share the leadership of the football team. The drive he has shown in the chow line, we feel, is typical of the drive he will show in future endeavors. Best of luck, Jim. 36 VINCENT MICHAEL FEDERICO 567 East Sixth Street South Boston, Massachusetts Vinny Circle K, Honor Guard, Football, Shellback, Century Club, Horizontal Club. Southie, Southie — My home town! Complete with a shamrock in his lapel and a set of orders from the Mafia, Vinny entered a new way of life. The youngest member of our class was taken under the kind and understanding wing of Baljoni, along with the Count. Not one to be home- sick, Vin spent many a week-end aboard just to prove this. Why go home when you have the love and affection of Seagulls down here? Maturity came quickly to Vinnie, and his first class year showed a squared-away sea- man and navigator. Be it Maritime Service or Navy, best of luck in all your ventures. ft V JAMES EDWARD GRADY 6 Paul Road Medford, Massachusetts Guano Newman Club, Muster Staff, Shellback, Lathe Sitters Union, Phi Beta Tread, Watch V. Tired of the rolling hills of Medford, Jim decided on a little Cape vacation. After his first year, he was almost condemned to a life of seamanship and navigation, but due to a toot , his vacation was extended and he was given another chance, this time at the world of vacuums, pressures, and tem- peratures. Jim made good however, and in his last few years was known as one of the better light bulb and battery men. A few metacentric miscalculations gave Guano a close call, but aside from this and a few ill-fated trips to the Deaconess Hos- pital, he could usually be found taking part in discussions about life. A fine friend to all, ambition will carry Jim far in the future. 37 EDWARD PETER HALEY 15 Torrey Street Brockton, Massachusetts Yogi Newman Club, Circle K, Horizontal Club, Watch V, Shellback. Yogi came to MMA not as a stranger, but from Rips. Rest just across the Bay. Yogi is a classic example of sharp, quick wit; and in these three years, he has instilled within us all a taste for his appropriately timed humorisms, both in and out of the classroom. Our friendly bear, in quest for knowledge from the proper angle, would brave all elements to gain his honey. During the summer when Yogi was not entangled with the late J.C. , he could be found either co- piloting the blue bomber around on Cape Cod or bee lining for Marion. We feel Peter ' s bustling manner, genial personality, and fine eyesight will speed him in the gain of his Hingham special. Whether at Jays , the Tropical , or wherever he may go, we know he shall always be on top. JAN M. ERASER Megansett Road Bourne, Massachusetts Gluck Band, Basketball, Foreign Correspondent, Shellback, Phi ReKappa Tread, Night Riders. Tall and raw-boned like his idol, Abraham Lincoln, Jan made quite a sight as he deeked and flapped his way through his stay at the academy. Having G above M was no problem for our Jan. He always remained calm and col- lected while under pressure. Altruisms was probably the most pronounced virtue of the Gluck. He is even planning to start a drive to provide ocean trips to a good many of the unfortunates whom he feels are most deserving. With his vast amounts of salts and acute understanding we are sure Jan will make a fine officer, be it Navy or Merchy. 38 JAMES EMMETT McCLELLAN, JR. 8 Maiden Street Marshfield, Massachusetts Mac Football — 2, 3, Chaos Committee, Gull So- ciety, Muster, Shellback, Night Riders. But fellas, I really am squared away! This refrain really had a ring of truth to it, but try and persuade that little group meeting in ships office! Actually Mac turned out to be one of the great intellects of the class. A connoisseur of the finer things in life, he could be found almost every weekend pursuing the muse at his Marshfield hideaway. Here our intent little group would gather and discuss the arts. We know we ' ll be hearing many more good things about Jim as he climbs the lad- der to success in his chosen field. And we ' re sure he will make a fine Merchie officer also. HOWARD RUSSELL LEONARD 240 South Street Holbrook, Massachusetts Tomato Circle K Club, Newman Club, Baseball Man- ager, Band, Charter Member of Watch V, Shellback. A fugitive from the House of Heinz, To- mato left his captaincy at Holbrook to take up the role as middie at MMA. During Howie ' s youngie year he was engrossed as shoemaker for Litchfield and his time on the sewing machine gave him a well deserved Thanksgiving leave period. Excelling in Naval Science, Howie was given longevity. After Slat ' s departure, Larry took over the compiling of the All-Purpose Engi- neers ' Manual . Howie now searches Jay ' s and the Hillside Museums in search of an- other lonely piece of art. We know you will have great success whether you are in your cold horizontal position or on a ship going around the world. We send with you our wishes for a great future which you will deserve. 39 KEVIN O ' DONNELL JOSEPH ALBERT NOLET 4 Lillian Road Salem, Massachusetts Cha-Boom Newman C lub, Honor Guard, Color Guard, Shellback, Lathe Sitting Union, Bowling. Out of the Witch City came the dancing sensation, our boy Cha . Arriving at the halls of MMA, he soon gave up the fine art of dancing to excel in refrigeration. He soon came forward with many frozen custards. Cha was the originator of the Five Big Deals , after finding the first behind the green door. He is the only man alive to shoot the Pope, that is with his dependable Brownie camera. Although 15 days is not never, we all agree in wishing Cha good luck and clear sailing. 18 Cleveland Road Salem, Massachusett ' j Possible Baseball Capt, Shellback, Horizontal Club President, Phi ReKappa Tread, Spanish- American Club, Night Riders. Early one morning a few years ago, a small box was found at the foot of the gang- way. Closer inspection found a cuddly little raccoon curled up amidst piles of sports statistics. Scratching his head and mum- bling something about Es Possible Kevin stumbled aboard to further his formal edu- cation. A great diplomat, despite his quick and violent temper, Kevin ' s mastery of the Spanish Language enabled him to find more bargains than the rest of the shoppers on the cruise. Captain of the Baseball team in his first class year, Kevin proved to be a competent leader as well as a pitcher. Good luck in the Merchies, Kev. May nothing but the best befall you. 40 WILLIAM FRANCIS O ' BRIEN 91 Baldwin Street Charlestown, Massachusetts Football, Baseball, Newma)i Club, Debating Team, Shellback, Watch V. Slush! Slush! Slush! On that fateful day in August 1959 there arrived aboard the Maru the pride of Bunker Hill, a real church man. Bill could always be found complaining about any situation, especially those con- cerning leave periods. But in the end, good wins over evil, and the complaining stopped with an extra day. Our star quarterback needed a big pin to get his right wing pitching again. Everyone was so concerned over it. God speed and happy sailing to a never forgotten guy. TIMOTHY VINCENT O ' SULLIVAN, JR. 762 East Broadway South Boston, Massachusetts Sully Netuman Club, Century Club, Baseball, Buf- falo A. C, Football, P. H. Folly. Every St. Patrick ' s Day in Southie a tall figure with a glowing red face and a large tire around him will be leading the parade. Not one to brag of his ancestors. Sully is a walking example of his sturdy race. Normally of mild temperament, Tim ex- ploded everytime the Bay State touched the Republic of Panama, taking his vengeance on the unsuspecting populace for reasons unbeknown, even to himself. As the silent member of the Buffalo A. C, Sully ' s athletic ability showed, whether in the field or in the hectic compartment contests. If the luck of the Irish holds true, Sully is sure to succeed. 41 RUSSELL FREDERICK PROUTY 283 Copeland Street Brockton, Massachusetts Doc Rifle Club, Horizontal Club, Phi ReKappa Tread, Bowling, Shellback, Track. WHOOOOOOO! From out of the mist came the man with the little black bag con- taining the tools of the trade. Doc set forth to prove that machines should be treated with care and patience. On our cruises, Doc struck out on his own to explore the strange and wonderful sights of a newly visited foreign land coming back with many tales of adventure and intrigue. After stumbling across a round block, Russ got up to prove his right to continue on, and after a struggle, achieved his objec- tive. We know that Russ will reach all his goals with our best wishes following him along. JOSEPH CHARLES PRONACK 231 Fayette Street North Quincy, Massachusetts Gordo Ring Dance — Emcee, Saint Lucia Jail, Buf- falo AC, Shellback, Horizontal Club. Straight from the eight o ' clock pick-up at the Army Base, riding his favorite, Trig- ger , came our roly-poly pal, Gordo. He quickly gave us the impression of a quiet spoken prohibitionist. By cruise time how- ever, it was evident that we made a grave mistake. His adventures on the cruises proved him very fun loving until that fateful day that we pulled into Texas and he heard that Trigger had fled from his barn. By the time our final cruise rolled around, Gordo had returned to his wandering ways, spending his extra liberty in the Castries Jail. Now near the end, we all know that Joe ' s gifted oratorical ability and personality will carry him through any endeavor he will ever meet. at 42 GEORGE JOHN REILLY 12 Bay Street Taunton, Massachusetts Major Netvman Club, Circle K, Honor Guard, Watch I Old Grad, Horizontal Club, Bowling. The Mighty Mouse came to MMA with many novel ideas, among those was to im- prove on the two gangways of the Bay State. Due mainly to Major ' s aggressiveness and connections, by his second job year he was well established as one of the up and coming fuel oil kings; due to unforeseen circum- stances he took charge of the laundry in- stead. In this capacity he kept the upper job engineers complimenting him daily dur- ing our last cruise. We ' ll all hope Major has the best of luck in the future and maybe he will marry that girl someday! PETER ANDERSON RIGHT 578 Weld Street West Roxbury 32, Massachusetts Boris Birdland Lounge, 20-20 Club, Labby ' s Bri- gade, Shellback. Aoogah! heralds in our own Boris Pis- narkis as he heads for the compartment to assume the horizontal. Peter is outstanding in our class, being fast of foot and long of limb. During our final year, Peter really proved his worth as a classmate and as a good friend. Many ' s the time that he ' s actually given the shirt off his back to aid a friend, and to him all people are friends. Many of us remember the day that Pete tried to imitate the movie stunt of jumping from tree to horse, except that instead of a tree, Pete thought the after engine room grating would do just as well. Best of luck in the future to a guy whom people couldn ' t help but like. 43 CHARLES PAUL SMITH 21 Water Street Saugus, Massachusetts Dimes Phi ReKappa Tread, Watch III Old Guard, Horizontal Club, Alpine Chib, Shellback, Demolition Team. Young man, I ' ve worn out more seabags that you have socks, said thirdclassman Pop Smith to the BattaHon Adjutant, and well nigh it might have been, for the Navy ' s barnacle encrusted contribution to MMA that year — so long ago — had just finished a tour of duty on Uncle Sam ' s aircraft car- riers and in the submarine service. Dimes ' great talent for procrastination in the academic field and his great love for the twenty-five cent saga of the plains could only be matched by his magnetic attraction to anything which resembled a bunk. Be- yond any doubt, Charlie ' s magnanimous personality and his unexcelled talent for at- tracting friends will stand him in good stead in the future. We are all sure that this grand old man from Winthrop will succeed in anything onto which he lays his hand. MICHAEL JOSEPH STACK 36 Merrymount Road South Weymouth, Massachusetts Mike Muster Staff, Honor Guard, Color Guard, Baseball, Netvman Club, Shellback. How many nights have you been awak- ened by a bleary-eyed man in a white coat? Don ' t fret, Mike is here to see if you want that haircut now. In this manner we all came to know Mike. An avid sportsman, he can always be de- pended upon for fair play and a keen in- terest. His popular song, Twenty-four Little Hours , made the hit parade in his second class year. This privilege enabled him to advance well in class standing and overcome some obese burdens laid upon him. Mike entered his first class year as a charter member of the P-H Folly. One of the stouter members, many a ventilation blower has benefitted from his almost con- stant attention. We feel sure that with his sparkling personality and affable manner, Mike will succeed in any field of endeavor that he chooses. 44 CHARLES WYMAN THIBEDEAU 4 Chase Terrace Beverly, Massachusetts Skip Ring Committee, Boivling, Shellback, Hori- zontal Club, Watch I Old Guard. From the second birthplace of the Ameri- can Navy, our Skip and his Texas Longhorn Pal , arrived that dingy and mirky day back in August of ' 59, to begin that bright green life at sea. Skipper really blew up quite a storm down there in Cristobal on that interesting second job cruise and every- one has been talking about it since. During his three years here. Skip and Willy have formed an oily relationship that at times overflowed with undue enthusiasm. All good things must come to an end and they certainly did when Charlie, as an upper job, drank some of God ' s forbidden fruit way down yonder in New Orleans. Say, Charlie, did you have fun ? That ' s what it said on the glass. Oh yes, how was Mardi Gras? Well, good luck and clear sailing to a good shipmate and friend. PETER ANTHONY VERROCHI 53 Ceylon Street Dorchester, Massachusetts Duke Skater ' s Club, Canvas Back AC, Shellback, Alpine Club, Phi ReKappa Tread. As president of the Skater ' s Club, the Duke has had many dangerous and har- rowing experiences, proving himself equal to the task every time. An avid hunter and woodsman, Pete will be most remembered for his most rewarding hunt, the bringing back of the Moosehead in Valparaiso, Chile, One of the mainstays of Watch I, he could always be depended upon to do the biggest and hardest job the best. As a friend and shipmate, one could ask for no better. We all wish Pete a rewarding career in the Merchies. 45 1 BARRY ROSS WEST 167 Russell Street Springfield, Massachusetts Hernia Track Manager, Shellback, Neivman Club, Flareback. Barry came to us from the farming town of Springfield. He tried for three years to bring his classmates around to his way of thinking and in so doing, he brought much joy to the class. He was a great advocate and participant in class social functions — where was he? His inattendance was not due to his lack of female company as he often watched them from the balcony, or Friendly ' s Ice Cream Parlor, where he had quite a scoop. After the first year here, Barry rea lized that working was sinful, and so joined the ranks of Watch IV, where the main object is to keep the bunk warm, at which he ex- celled. We feel certain that Barry ' s shining per- sonality and engineering know how will guide him down the road to success and smooth sailing. 1 46 JOSEPH E. KEANE 26 Milton Street Somerville, Massachusetts Rolling down to M. M. A. from the Cam- bridge-Somerville line, came Joe, with a Volkswagen for his weekends off, Basher quickly became an outstanding shipmate to all of us; even if he did believe (or did he?) certain scientific statements which gave some of us food for night-long arguments with him. By the way, does anyone have a scale for weighing the light from my flashlight. His outstanding ability with the slip stick didn ' t help him with his algebra at first, but his practice and turn-to study- ing put him in the better half of his class. His knowledge of the complex electrical equipment aboard the Bay State , as well as some real off beat subjects, which he was constantly reading about, aided him in getting his well deserved stripe in the P-H Folly. We are all aware of the fact that Joe ' s efforts, and his alone, will be the determin- ing factor in gaining his determined goals, what ever they may be. m r V 1962 MUSTER INITIATES SECTION TO PAUL C.

Connors Brown 70 ' 60 ' CR UISE USS Enterprise Training Ship 1892-1909 1960 TRAINING CRUISE January 14th was the selected departure date for the Bay State ' s 1960 Training Cruise. During the Christmas Leave Period, this date was unfortunately pushed ahead 2 months to the 14th of March. This date found the Bay State and all hands ready to get underway; and at 1000 on the morning of the 14th, the word was passed Cast off all lines, all ahead 1 3! A feeling of excitement prevailed as we left our loved ones behind and began looking for- ward to strange new places overseas. Our first port out of Buzzards Bay was Hamilton, Bermuda, reached after a roll- icking 3 days at sea. The Bay State slowly wended her way through the tortuous ap- proaches to Hamilton Harbor, where we tied up next to one of Her Majesties Finest . Due to overtrading, it wasn ' t a strange sight to see a Canadian sailor in one of our com- partments at odd hours-or was it a Canadian sailor? Because of this, we had to surrender our hard-won trophies under the watchful eyes of the L.A.W. The narrow, winding roads that are typi- cal of Bermuda gave many a midshipman a desperate and frightening time while re- turning to the ship from such places as the Elbow Beach Surf Club, The Princess Hotel, the Bermuda Royal Yacht Club, and the Crystal Caves. The Seaman ' s Club offered an exchange of nationalities and fists. The island was picturesque but unenjoyably ex- pensive for a midshipman. Having gotten underway earlier than most other ships in the harbor, the Bay State was able to take active part in an Air-Sea Rescue Operation. The results were the retrieving of a radar buoy by the Bay State. 76 After a trying 8 day journey, the island of Madiera abruptly thrust herself up in front of the Bay State. Here the fleet of bumboats reached the ship shortly after we acquired our pilot. He took us in close to shore where we anchored and stayed for the next 5 days. From here we watched the bumboat hawkers and the Boy dive for your coins per- formers. Once ashore in Funchal however, the deals began as wine shops and lace shops opened and displayed their wares for approval. The excellent lace obtained here is still gracing many a table in the States, and is constantly bringing back fond memories of Madiera to those of us who were there-notably at the intriguing Casanova. For those of you who have seen the mo- tion picture Windjammer , you probably had your breath taken away by the Basket Slide. Racing down the side of the mountain from the Cathedral, you are brought to an abrupt stop in front of the Halfway House by your footman. Here driver and passenger alike refresh themselves and catch their breath. Once again on the path, you continue moving until you collide with something or arrive safe and sound at the foot of the mountain. Many enjoyed a swim at the pool before being summoned to dinner at the Savoy Hotel. This meal was one to end all meals and tried even the most avid readers of Emily Post. Returning to the ship via the Stumble Bum launch, we turned in for the night, ready to depart early next morning. The 3 day trip to Palma de Mallorca passed quickly, and we saluted the island ' s defenses as we passed before them on our way to the docks. Elements of the Spanish — and later the Italian — Fleets were present in the har- bor alongside the Bay State. Our frequent trips into town via horse- drawn carriages brought back photographs of the great cathedral, the yacht club, and much local color. The seemingly everpresent dockside hawkers sold their wares at lower 77 prices than could be found in town, so some of us purchased some very fine boots. Many of us still bear scars caused by fre- quent motor scooter accidents ; ask the mid- dies who broke down out of town and really needed help to pay for the scooter owrer ' s inconvenience, they can tell you all ab uit it! However, all good things must come to an end, so all hands watched Mallorca fade over the horizon and began eagerly awaiting the sight of Mount Vesuvius and Naples. Smogbound Naples greeted us by clearly presenting Mt. Vesuvius for all to see and photograph. We slowly sailed through the harbor and dropped our anchor to swing about and dock Mediterranean style — stern too. Shortly thereafter, the USS Newport News came alongside. With typical navy efficiency, she painted in her waterline in no time at all. Just as fast though, the Bay State pumped overboard about 100 gallons of fuel oil and thoroughly oiled her freshly painted hull. Excitement followed with Fog, Foam, and Fire the by-words, but the situa- tion was capably handled by all hands. Soon buses came down to the docks to load middies aboard for a Roman Holiday. The trip included room, board, and many scenic tours about historic Rome. As always, the middies found their own evening pas- times ; food, wine, and song was a great lift for them on their 3 day stay. Sidewalk cafes and churches were in all directions. The omnipotency of the Roman Empire was still felt when we visited the Coliseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum. The highlight for most of us — Port Watch particularly — was the seeing of Pope John XXIII celebrate Easter Mass in St. Peter ' s. Outside in the crowd, many mid- shipmen listened as the Pope addressed the world. Upon returning to Naples, many of us visited Pompeii and the Isle of Capri. A fine meal in a quaint Neopolitan cafe made our final night one to fondly remember. Our next port of call was the city of Valencia, made famous by stories and songs. Many of the middies took in the bull fights and some got so excited over getting authen- tic souvenirs that they ended up in the bull pens procuring bandeleros . After the fights the boys decided to do the town up until they found out that the siesta was in full swing and they had to modify their plans some. However after a while everything was opened up and the middies took over the town. Finally it came time to head back to the ship and streams of middies set forth from such places of local interest as the Derby Club heading for the ship. What ship ? There seems to have been some confusion on that point but using 79 the trial and error method everybody finally got aboard. Sunday morning Mass was celebrated on the 01 deck aft and in the afternoon we en- joyed ourselves by visiting the historic Span- nish Cathederals such as the Cathedral of Valencia which houses the Holy Grail. After too short a stay we packed up our guitars and botas, then departed. All suf- fered to the twang of the amateur guitar player for the remainder of the cruise. The only contentment was to practice the use of the wine filled botas. Fiesta time in Las Palmas, Gran Canaries ! But still there was plenty to do, from the Opera that was offered to the more cultural minded of us aboard, to the beautiful sandy beaches. Several of the midshipmen were entertain- ed in fine style by the old salts at the Club Nautical and the fleet offered a variety of voyages to the intended round the world sailors . This was the last stop for the foreign ex- chequers and barter men. Linen and wine provided the price hagglers with an excellent work out. After a hard twelve days at sea, we spot- ted the golden spires of Miami glowing in the western skies and we steamed down a 80 beautiful canal and tied up in our luxurious berth facing Sears and Roebucks. As we went on liberty we saw the resort hotels sitting like parasites waiting to take our money but through the kindness of the local Chamber of Commerce we were able to take in the sights free of charge. Another enjoyable day was had when Miss Miami and her runner up came aboard and sent many middies into delirium. Millies seemed to be the main point of in- terest ashore as here everyone met his ac- quaintance . Using this as a base of opera- tions the middies sailed back and forth to the beach. Another sidetrack for the Bay State Beau Brummels was an occasional visit to the University of Miami at which many friend- ships were made. Prior to departure our engineers spent many a benny day under the lights of the engine spaces as they bypassed the boiler economiser in the after engine room. At the end, with all our papers in order, the Coast Guard let us go our merry way and we spent our last few days heading for the Gulch. Upon arrival at Buzzards Bay we stepped ashore and let the people at home observe the transformation from Young Men to Old Salt ' ss and so ends the most memorable of our cruises.

We let go our lines and got under way, or did we? For a while it looked like our cruise was going to be to the other side of the Cape Cod Canal, but we finally got our signals straight and headed out to sea to visit some new and mysterious places. After a few days of rough weather, which the Bay State took with her usual even, keel, we were down into warm southern waters; and after a brief trip through the Gatun Locks we came to anchor in Gatun Lake. After a few days of looking at the jungle and observing the wild life, we steamed through the remaining two sets of locks and tied up at the U. S. Naval station at Rodman. The Navy gave us the run of the place, and not being ones to refuse any offers of friend- ship, we utilized the swimming pool and clubs to our best advantage. At night several of the braver boys made sorties into Panama City and points of local interest, such as the Phoenix Museum, with its art display of the Panama Canal and various monkey faces. Another point of interest that the middies frequented was the gamb- ling casino of the Panama Hilton. For our first port of the cruise Rod- man was enjoyable, and we were all kind of sorry when it came time to leave on our run down the west coast of South America. On the way down we underwent the sacred rites of King Neptunes ' Court where ' ' Neptunis Rex was played by one of the stouter advocates of the ceremony of being initiated into the mysteries of the deep. For this day we took on the appearance of a luxury liner with our much-praised salt water swimming pool on the Foc ' sle. We will all remember the 5th of Feb. for the rest of our lives as the day we crossed over the line at 81° 5 ' W. and 0000° latitude and became full fledged shellbacks. After putting the ship back into con- dition again we were ready to pull into Valpariso Chile. This will probably be the best remem- bered port of all our three years ' stay at the Academy because of the friend- liness of the people there. There was an abundance of things to do, from the dances given by the Chilean North American Cultural Institute to the two excursions to Santiago, and even up to one of our class mates ' moosehunts in the jungles of the Zurich wildlife preserve. Unfortunately the wildlife had to be returned before we left. After a stay that was too short for most of the boys, we said good by to 87 all our newfound friends on the dock and steamed out looking wistfully back to the beaches of Vina del Mar, but many letters from Valpariso were to follow the Bay State wherever she went for some time to come. As we pushed our way up the coast, we traveled slowly to the extreme plea- sure of our marine wildlife spotters until we reached Callao, Peru. For days many of the middies insisted that if Callao were ever the heart of the South American perfume trade, they would never buy perfume for anybody again. Afer a while most of us became used to the odor and all we had to con- tend with was the tarnishing of brass and various black deposits throughout the ship. Once on liberty most of the middies took a taxi through the quaint little suburb of Callao into Lima to do a little trading with the local natives. All during the daylight hours the great majority of the boys spent time shopping or touring the country side but at night everyone was hot and tired enough to sit down and enjoy a bottle of Crystal-Cola and then head back through scenic Callao in time to convince the gate guards at the Peru- vian Naval Base of our good intentions and get aboard. After our brief stay we packed up our llama rugs and silver trinkets and headed for the placid Pacific once more, however, much to our chagrin, we ran out of water in Callao harbor and had to extradite ourselves before we got underway again. A brief run up the coast found us again entering the Panama Canal, but instead of stopping this time at Rod- man we had to be content to just watch as we went through and headed for the other side and Cristobal. If the cultural development of the city fell below our usual standards, it did not seem to bother the middies too much and as we walked down the street we heard the old familiar Hey Man! echoing from everybody ' s lips remind- ing us that we were once more in Panama. As we ventured down main street we discovered that Cristobal was nothing but one big bar, so as the old 89 saying goes When in Rome do as the Romans do. As we departed from Cristobal, none aboard were too sad as we were all looking forward to our first stateside port of the cruise, namely Galveston. Where we were greeted by the town fathers and the local high school band which played almost as well as our own. The usual days liberty started with a tour of the Falstaff Brewery and then progressed from there. However there were many exciting side excursions, such as a dance given by the chamber of commerce, and several midshipmen visiting the historic gun mounts to see if they could make the old weapons work but much to their chagrin it became too crowded all at once and that ruined their plans. If things were good in town, they were not so aboard ship as a result of the guided tours through the Bay State, and many a middle was bound to be embarrassed by people peering at him after he stepped out of the shower. 90 We were sorry to leave Galveston but it was time to head for our next port, Tampa, Fla. As we pulled under the bridge and steamed up Tampa Bay to Dock, it didn ' t look as if there would be too much to do here. But as usual the mid- dies found many exciting things to do. This is the port where our pal Boris really shined and will probably go down in the history of the city. Probably the best thing about Tampa was that we would be home soon and this made everybody happy. As we left Tampa we settled down to sea routine for the last time and tried to acquire our last Bennies before see- ing the people at home. However des- tiny, with the help of our unusual speed, played a trick on us and as a result we spent a couple of days lolling in the sun off of New Bedford. The big day finally came, and we pulled into the slip at New Bedford and saw all our parents and friends on the dock. Of course someone had to remark gee aren ' t they pale-looking! This ended our second annual training cruise and we went ashore with all our stories to enchant the people at home. 91 ' 62 ' CR I UISE Bay State Training Ship 1958 to Present y na ' Maitsa B   ■ ic lttl£ ' 35ir at s mint a loto ' d tofh ir..r(. . ' msht  doubloon caught 1962 CRUISE At last the departure day for our last training cruise at the academy drew near and we made all preparations to get under- way. On the ninth of January, we let go our lines in our usual record time and were underway for our first port of the cruise, Saint Thomas in the Virgin Islands. As we pulled into the Saint Thomas Yacht Basin, many of the middies lined the rails, checking out the local scenery with their newly bought binoculars, especially some of the local natives fixing up their boats. First call to liberty sent everybody scrambling and after a five day-run down, none of the middies minded the long walk into town. The first place of call for most of the boys was the A. H. Riise Incorporated, to look over and try some of their various concoctions and from there, to wander down the main street taking in the sights. Some of the fellows however, were more content to take a harrowing taxi ride to such places as : The Virgin Isle Hotel, The Black Witch, and Sebastions On The Waterfront. How- ever not all the taxi rides were as crazy as some of our classmates, riding jeeps. Many a middy was to turn half monkey in this port in search of freshly picked cocoanuts. As the day approached to depart we pack- ed up our strawhats and cases of Saint Thomas Bay Rum and got ready to settle 96 down to sea routine for another couple of days. After a brief trip through Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent, we sighted our first British Island, Barbados. Immediately before liberty the list of re- commended spots in Bridgetown was read off and all the middies stampeded off the ship in search of them. We were not to be dissappointed in the Navy ' s choice of spots and many a fond memory was gained at such places as Harry ' s Nightery and the New Yorker. Thanks to the intercession of Miss Eileen Donovan, from Jamaica Plain Massachusetts, the United States Consul, we had several enjoyable functions to attend such as a dance at the Accra Beach Hotel and a cocktail party at the consul. This was our first opportunity to try out some unusual cuisine and many of the boys whet their appetite on Flying Fish and the Old English style fish and chips. Hey, what are those? Oil barrels! rang through the ship early Sunday morning. Actually it was the Coca Cola Company ' s steel band, sent down to entertain us and many of us were hesitant to leave on our ex- cursions with some of the families of the island, to such strange places as Bathsheba and Christ ' s Church. After such tours, the night was usually rounded off with a visit to such places as the Oasis and the Flying Fish. Early Monday morning we packed our memories of sunburns and rum punches and headed for Aruba. Our arrival was heralded by the sound of smashing timbers as the Bay State nosed into her berth in Oranjestad. A touch of Dutch, a splash of Spain — all under the sunniest sun ever and air-condi- tioned by the refreshing trade winds. Can this be Aruba they are talking about? All I remember seeing was a flat desert with a noticeable upraised projection, aptly termed ' Haystack Mountain ' plus the infamous Divi- Divi trees. Two unique opportunities to see the island were offered to us by tours given by the 98 Royal Dutch Marines and Lago Oil Company. The Lago officials are still pondering the dis- appearance of 1100 bottles of beer. However, this is a secret we will keep to ourselves. This port offered an excellent chance for the Engineering midshipmen to view a large evaporator setup at close range. It was hard for us to tear ourselves away from Aruba, in fact at the last minute the Captain consented to leave a ship ' s souvenir behind. Our navigational experts agree that we finally hit a port on the nose, but later on that night the Bay State followed suit by losing herself in the dark. All things considered, we finally anchored that morning in Castries Harbor. The Plan of the Day announced an intended liberty boat schedule. Armed and forwarned, the middies endured the long wet ride to shore to help the Peace Corps in their development of the island. Soon finding out that we weren ' t cut out for Peace Corps work, we decided to establish a good- will station at the Habana Club. Being accomplished Hands at cocktail par- ties by this time, we felt quite at ease at the Governor ' s Mansion. Although a good time was had at the cocktail party, it was nothing compared to the experience of six stranded shipmates who took Castries by storm. Being on a special overnight liberty, they spent much time viewing the local penal system from inside-out. Happily departing from Saint Lucia, and vowing never to touch Red Stripe Beer again, we steamed westward to Panama. So near and yet so far describes our dock- ing facilities in Cristobal. Nevertheless, sur- mounting all difficulties, we once again roam- ed the streets of Panama in ten different ways. On the second day of our stay, a notice in the Plan of The Day, Number 27 stated, All MIDN visiting the Republic are advised to go in pairs. Stay on the main open thoroughfares. Do not go on back streets or alleys. Stay away from unsavory premises. May we add Do as I say, not as I do and let it rest there, even though it resulted in a nine o ' clock curfew for the boys. Having renewed all our old acquaintances with Sodom and Gomorrah of our time, we were ready to get underway for Kingston, Jamaica. After a harrowing landing, during which we defied many a law of Physics, we im- mediately set out to determine for ourselves the extent of the island ' s tropical charm. This charm was evident in such places as the New Paul Jones Hotel, Tally-Ho, Lounge, and the Birdland Hotel. Much of the excitement ashore was not confined to those on liberty as the ship afforded an excellent grandstand for viewing the many confused events on the docks. 99 Leaving port, the Bay State assumed the appearance of a Caribbean Corsair, armed to the stacks with fireworks and machetes. This unusual armament afforded us a great deal of concern as we drew close to the Crescent City and the New Orleans Cus- toms Officials. Customs passed us by and we went ashore feeling at ease, ready to take on Mardi Gras. The old saying states, If you haven ' t been to Pat O ' Brien ' s, you haven ' t been to New Orleans. We immediately re- medied this situation, none too soon, for this fine establishment was promptly declared out of bounds for future officers. None the worse for wear however, we set out to discover new points of interest. The El Morocco, Jax Brewery, The 1812 Bar, Ched ' s Lounge, and for a select few — The Playboy Club, were the fruits borne out of this successful sortie into this Fun Capital. These fruits were soured by a plague of round worm, and a few middies were con- fined aboard as a result of this sickness. Parades were to be found throughout the city, from those of Rex and His Court, to those of Father Knick on Bourbon Street. Often these parades ended at a certain gang- way near the foot of Toulouse Street, and many of those paraders never did see the first half of our trip down to the Delta. Port Everglades, the college playground, played host to the Bay State on her last port of our final cruise. We tied up directly ahead of Maine Maritime Academys ' schoolship. Those of us at Massachusetts Maritime ex- perienced a considerable amount of pride 100 when friendly comparisons of the two ships were made. As is typical of every port, liberty be- came the byword on board. On liberty, the three miles to Fort Lauderdale was no obs- tacle to those who were anxious to continue where Maine Maritime left off. In so doing our mark was left at Omar ' s Tent, The Student Prince, and above all Lenny ' s, the scene of a record breaking Hurdle jumping event. With the time element now pressing heavily on our shoulders, the middies hasten- ed to return aboard ; at this time, the fence surrounding the dock area became more ac- cessible to some than the main gate. Taking our departure early the next morn- ing, the sun rose on the Bay State when she was quite a ways out to sea. All hands were restlessly awaiting our scheduled arrival in Boston-ironically enough, on Saint Patrick ' s Day. Daily speculation about an early arrival was a pastime for most of us. It proved to no avail however, as we dropped the hook a bare three hundred yards from the Boston Harbor shore. In preparation for our leave period, all souvenirs were broken out and packed for the journey home. The 17th of March dawned clear and cold, but as we put our lines ashore, our spirits were warmed at the sight of those we had left behind three months ago. The rest is anti-climax: most of us went home and the ship remained in Boston for three days ; to be taken back to Buzzards Bay by half the ship ' s normal force. So ended our final cruise, one which we were sad to see ended, but glad, for it was one step closer to our goal. 101 OLD SHEP When I was a middle and Old Shep was a Brass Arm. O ' er asphalt and drill fields we ' d roam We ' d stumble around while gritting our teeth In only an hour ive ' d go home. Old Shepie would snarl and Old Shepie would wail The foam ivould drip from his jaws You ' d think that we all had stepped on his tail Or one of his grey mocha paws. Our doggie had eyes that were placid and sage But he was not easy to please The slightest mishap tvoidd dilate them ivith rage And he ' d scream in the throes of rabies. Caesar had illusions of grandeur and power But Old Shep had him beat by a mile As we drilled he ivould grip his binoculars and glower His jaw in a hideous smile. There once was a time when they shot rabid hounds But today they give them gold braid I ' m sure if the grey lines call upon me to serve I ' ll promptly tell them BASEBALL TEAM Coach Magers Team Capt.

With little time, facilities, and co-operation, our team proved once more that the will to win and a lot of team spirit will go a long way. For the first time in years we were able to field a full squad of runners to take on the big boys. As usual our old enemies, time and administration, took their toll, and it showed in the final score. We hope that next year, with the same team spirit and the help of the Athletic Board, we can change that score. 108 109 RING DANCE CLASS OF 1962 Another year has passed, and another class has graduated: I watch it happen every year. I was the center of attraction, once for them, as I have been for every preceding class. This year it hap- pened at the Statler Hilton Hotel, in Boston. The corps of midshipmen escorted their ladies to their biggest ball of the year. Tom McSharry ' s orchestra played, as the Main Ballroom was host to the tide of swinging gowns and light stepping military shoes. At nine o ' clock, the dancing ceased as the first class formed a procession with their ladies, to pass in review of their guests. The clear shrill call from the boswain ' s whistle sounded as the nine man honor guard marched onto the cleared floor. They snapped through commands and executed their drill to the laudation of all onlookers. Then at a call, five retired and four stationed themselves, two forward and two aft of me. Rear Admiral Thompson addressed the midshipmen and their guests, from the flowered central platform beside me, relating the significance of the approaching ceremony. He told of the midship- man ' s place at sea, and how water of the Seven Seas, held in my jowels, was to bind the academy ring to signify the new mariner ' s marriage to the sea. After being introduced by the Master of Ceremonies, the First Class midshipmen came to me escorting their ladies. The forward honor guardmen snapped in unison to salute him as he stepped up on the platform. The ring, on its ribbon, was removed from the lady ' s neck and then submerged in my collected waters. She placed the ring on his finger and kissed him, while in his embrace. As they left me, the after honor guardmen saluted and prepared to await the next couple. Tattoo called at ten minutes before midnight, sounding for all, that the ball was about to end. And as midnight rang in, the corps of midshipmen left me, couple by couple, until another year. 1)5 RING DANCE ENGINEER CADET OFFICERS Cheyne, Mooney, Tautkus, Doherty, Caiger, Hennigan, Dewis.

This class helped to estab- lish the club and bring it to its present standing. Although not being permitted to accomplish a great deal due to certain im- possible boundaries, the members of the club in the graduating class have left some signs of existence, such as the Massachu- setts Maritime Academy sign of the class- room building. This sign, we know, will remain in its present place for many, many years. To the Kiwanis Club of Bourne and espe- cially to Captain Edmund 0. Evans, who was the Club ' s first chairman, the members of the club extend their sincerest thanks for the help they received in establishing the Circle K Club of Massachusetts Maritime Academy. 124 NEWMAN CLUB Fr. Mahoney, Spiritual Advisor, Cronin, vice pres., Fenton, secre- tary, Mooney, president. This year the Newman Club of the Massa- chusetts Maritime Academy completed its first successful year on campus, with the good counsel of Mr. Dorsey, our faculty advisor; and Father Francis Mahoney, our spiritual advisor, of Saints Margaret and Mary ' s parish in Buzzards Bay. The club managed to arrange and organize for its members the appearance of three guest speakers who spoke on pertinent subjects concerning the young man, plus some spir- itual and social functions which everyone enjoyed. The club elected Jim Mooney as its first President, who, with the help of vice presi- dent Jerry Cronin and secretary Dick Fen- ton, organized most of the clubs activities both here and abroad. The club ' s purpose is to supply spiritual, social and cultural needs to the Catholic students of college level. Understanding that this was the club ' s first active year, it is with whole-hearted sincerity that we s ay, A job well done, Newman Club! 125 NATIONAL MARITIME DAY MAY 18, 1962 126 IN APPRECIATION MASTER AT ARMS WILLIAM L.

American Export Lines ' Fleet Replacement Program continues to make big news at sea. Recently the EXPORT COURIER, the nintli fast freighter in this program, slid down the ways. She will soon join the American Export Lines ' fleet in providing direct express cargo service to the Mediterranean. The EXPORT COURIER will be fol- lowed by 3 other C -Series cargo vessels now contracted for, COMMERCE, CHALLENGER and CHAMPION. Like the engine-aft design ships which are already in service or under construction ( EXPORT BANNER, BAY, BUILDER and BUYER) the new EXPORT COURIER is capable of 18%-knot sea speed. She is equipped with the most modern and efficient cargo-handling gear. American Export Lines will have a total of 12 big new cargo ships in service. Fourofthesecargo ships (EXPORT AMBASSADOR, ADVENTURER, AGENT and AIDE) have facilities for carrying 12 passengers. American Export Lines ' goal is to provide superior service under the U. S. flag between U. S. Atlantic Coast and Great Lakes ports to the Mediterranean, Portugal, Spain, North Africa, Adriatic Sea, Black Sea, Red Sea, India, Pakistan, Ceylon and Burma. 39 BROADWAY, NEW YORK 6, N.Y. • DIGBY 4-3000 World wide cargo services . . . can mean world wide career opportunities for you FROM ALL COASTS OF THE UNITED STATES : India • Pakistan • Ceylon • Saudi Arabia • Iran • Iraq • Thailand • Burma • Formosa • Okinawa Hawaiian Islands Japan • Korea Malaya • Singapore • Philippines • Indonesia • Viet-Nom Cambodia ' OFFICES: Baltimore - Beaumont - Boston - Brownsville Buffalo - Calexico - Chicago - Cleveland - Dallas Detroit - Fresno - Galveston - Houston - Long Beach Los Angeles - Memphis - Mobile - New Orleans - New Yor k - Norfolk - Philadelphia - Portland, Ore. - San Francisco - Seattle - Toledo - Washington, D C, IjCTHI IIi J III mjglgj.. —American Flag Vessels — 90 BROAD NEW YORK 4, N.
