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

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.

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.
