WILLIAM JAY 0'BRIEN Bill WILLIAMSPORT, PA. YALE A congenial smile, a swell personality, a good disposition, and a fighting Irish heart Cno harm, Mother, just jokingj all go tof gether to make up that popular personage, Bill O'Brien. Every' where his travels carry him he makes friends-sex making not the least particle of difference to him, although just between you and me, I think that he does not particularly care too much for male- men Football saw our class president playing a guard position and a good one he was. In swimming, Bill's speciality was the backstroke. Bill was elected captain of the track squad Qcigars?j, and capably took care of the weight events. Bill was once a fine student, but along came Winchester and the depression and-well, Bill is now one of the boys trying to slide off the fence on the safe side. And how! X Pk lk JOHN IRWIN ORR, Jr. Jack MT. LEBANON, PA. DARTMOUTH A big smile, frank eyes and a hearty hello in the friendliest manner-that's lack Orr, Vice-President of the Senior Class of '3-6. If any measure of prophecy about 'lack's future in the world exists in his success at Massanutten, his classmates will one day be proud to say- There goes lack Qrr. l went to school with him. Personality plus and aggressive initiative unite to form ,lack's character into a pleasing and helpful factor of wellfbeing at Massanutten. It might be well to add that jack was captain of the football team, played on the basketball team, was a swell short- stop and home-run hitter, was president of the jefferson Debating Society and still managed to find time to run up to Mount jackson quite often. I'lere's wishing there were more like you! THE ADJUTANT-1936 lk 118,

LAWRENCE CLAYTON HOWARD ' 'Larry' ' ARLINGTON, NJ. DARTMOUTH Atten-shun! Get everything in tipftop shape, fellows, for here we have the major-domo of the military department. Larry has spent four years at Massanutten and in that comparatively short time has risen in the ranks from a lowly private to the po- sition of greatest responsibility. Needless to say, he has merited all the confidence so aptly placed in him. He knows his military like Lindbergh his airplanes, Kreisler his music and Einstein his relativity. Larry has been a mainstay of the rifle team, and hasn't done so badly as a musician either, having been a member of both the band and the Glee Club. To our esteemed cadet leader we say- Hail and Farewell! Pk lk Pk SCOTT BLANCHARD, Jr. Scott BROOKLYN, N.Y. BROWN It will be a long time before Massanutten finds a Battalion Adf jutant as likable and as personable as our Captain Scott Blanchard. Scott is always way up that in the scholastic average-all with due practice of a little keen wittedness and concentration. Scott is no esthetic one-sided student-he is a live, good-natured Ameri- , can boy. His activities in school life at Massanutten have been many and varied. He seems to have a finger in every pie everyf time anything at all important happens or is planned. There is a very nice smile which he has that is very beguiling, to say the least. Candor and frank sincerity are the keynotes ofhis character. A fine sense ofhumor has been thrown in for good luck for this All-American recipe Alpha to Omega in fresh American youthfulness is Scott Blanchard-a Massanutten officer and gentleman. 1192 lk THEADJUTANT-.1936 HWY 'W-
