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

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

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
